< Johana 20 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya wa mbere wa kwambĩrĩria kiumia rũciinĩ tene, kũrĩ o na nduma, Mariamu Mũmagidali nĩathiire mbĩrĩra-inĩ na akĩona ihiga rĩrĩa rĩarĩ mũromo-inĩ rĩrĩ rĩeherie.
On the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and she saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ atengʼerete kũrĩ Simoni Petero na mũrutwo ũrĩa ũngĩ, ũrĩa Jesũ endete, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩmarutĩte Mwathani mbĩrĩra-inĩ, na tũtiũĩ harĩa mamũigĩte!”
So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him.”
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Petero na mũrutwo ũcio ũngĩ makiumagara marorete mbĩrĩra-inĩ.
So Peter went out, along with the other disciple, and they began making their way to the tomb.
4 Marĩ o eerĩ magĩtengʼera, no mũrutwo ũcio ũngĩ agĩkĩria Petero ihenya, agĩkinya mbĩrĩra-inĩ mbere.
The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.
5 Akĩinamĩrĩra, na akĩrora thĩinĩ, akĩona mataama ma gatani marĩ maige thĩ, no ndaatoonyire.
Stooping down to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.
6 Nake Simoni Petero, ũrĩa warĩ thuutha wake, agĩkinya na agĩtoonya mbĩrĩra thĩinĩ. Akĩona mataama ma gatani maigĩtwo hau,
Then Simon Peter, who had been following him, arrived and went into the tomb. He saw the linen cloths lying there
7 o hamwe na gĩtambaya kĩrĩa Jesũ ohetwo mũtwe agĩthikwo. Nakĩo gĩakũnjĩtwo gĩkaigwo kĩrĩ giiki, gĩtarĩ hamwe na mataama macio ma gatani.
and the facecloth that had been on Jesus' head. But it was not lying with the linen cloths; it was folded up separately in another place.
8 Thuutha ũcio mũrutwo ũcio ũngĩ, ũrĩa wakinyĩte mbĩrĩra-inĩ mbere, o nake agĩtoonya thĩinĩ. Akĩona na agĩĩtĩkia.
Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. He saw and believed.
9 (Nĩgũkorwo nginyagia hĩndĩ ĩyo matiakoretwo mataũkĩirwo nĩ Maandĩko atĩ Jesũ nĩarĩ ariũke kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ.)
(For they did not yet understand the Scripture that Jesus must rise from the dead.)
10 Arutwo acio magĩcooka makĩinũka kwao,
Then the disciples went back to their homes.
11 no Mariamu akĩrũgama hau nja ya mbĩrĩra akĩrĩraga. O akĩrĩraga-rĩ, akĩinamĩrĩra, akĩrora mbĩrĩra thĩinĩ,
But Mary stood near the tomb, weeping outside. As she was weeping, she stooped down to look into the tomb
12 akĩona araika eerĩ marĩ na nguo njerũ, maikarĩte thĩ harĩa mwĩrĩ wa Jesũ waigĩtwo, ũmwe agaikara mũtwe-inĩ nake ũcio ũngĩ agaikara magũrũ-inĩ.
and saw two angels in white sitting where Jesus' body had been laid, one at the head and one at the feet.
13 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ, nĩ kĩĩ kĩrakũrĩria?” Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ nĩmeheretie Mwathani wakwa mbĩrĩra-inĩ, na ndiũĩ harĩa mamũigĩte.”
They said to her, “Woman, why are yoʋ weeping?” She said to them, “They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him.”
14 O hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩhũgũra, akĩona Jesũ arũgamĩte hau, no ndaigana kũmenya atĩ aarĩ Jesũ.
After saying this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know it was Jesus.
15 Nake Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ, nĩ kĩĩ kĩrakũrĩria? Nũũ ũracaria?” Mariamu agĩĩciiria atĩ ũcio aarĩ mũrĩmi wa mũgũnda, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, akorwo nĩwe ũmweheretie njĩĩra harĩa ũmũigĩte nĩguo thiĩ ngamuoe.”
Jesus said to her, “Woman, why are yoʋ weeping? Whom are yoʋ seeking?” Supposing that he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if yoʋ have carried him away, tell me where yoʋ have laid him, and I will take him away.”
16 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩta, “Mariamu!” Nake akĩĩhũgũra akĩmwĩtĩka na Kĩhibirania atĩrĩ, “Raboni!” (naguo nĩ kuuga Mũrutani).
Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned and said to him, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
17 Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ndũkae kũnyiita, nĩ ũndũ ndirĩ ndĩrambata thiĩ kũrĩ Baba! No rĩrĩ, thiĩ kũrĩ arutwo akwa, ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩndĩracooka thiĩ kũrĩ Baba, na nowe Ithe wanyu, njooke kũrĩ Ngai wakwa, na nowe Ngai wanyu.’”
Jesus said to her, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brothers and tell them that I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.”
18 Mariamu Mũmagidali agĩthiĩ kũrĩ arutwo, akĩmatwarĩra ũhoro, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩnyonete Mwathani!” Na akĩmeera atĩ nĩwe wamwĩrĩte maũndũ macio.
So Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her.
19 Hwaĩ-inĩ wa mũthenya o ũcio wa mbere wa kwambĩrĩria kiumia, rĩrĩa arutwo maarĩ hamwe, na mĩrango ĩrĩ mĩhinge nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra Ayahudi, Jesũ agĩũka akĩrũgama gatagatĩ-inĩ kao, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gĩai na thayũ!”
In the evening of that day, the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”
20 Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo akĩmoonia moko make na mbaru ciake. Nao arutwo makĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno nĩ ũndũ wa kuona Mwathani.
After saying this, he showed them his hands and his side, and the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21 Na o rĩngĩ Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gĩai na thayũ! O ta ũrĩa Baba aandũmire, noguo o na niĩ ndamũtũma.”
Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I am sending you.”
22 Na oiga ũguo, akĩmahuhĩrĩria mĩhũmũ yake, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Amũkĩrai Roho Mũtheru.
After saying this, he breathed on them and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 Arĩa othe mwarekera mehia mao, nĩmarĩrekagĩrwo, na arĩa othe mũtarĩrekagĩra, matirĩrekagĩrwo.”
If you remit the sins of any, their sins are remitted; if you retain the sins of any, their sins are retained.”
24 Na rĩrĩ, Toma (ũrĩa wetagwo Wa-mahatha), ũmwe wa arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, ndaarĩ hamwe na arutwo rĩrĩa Jesũ okire.
Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came.
25 Tondũ ũcio arutwo arĩa angĩ makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩtuonete Mwathani.” Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Itoonete irema cia mĩcumarĩ moko-inĩ make, na ndoonyie kĩara gĩakwa hau irema-inĩ cia mĩcumarĩ, na njooke ndoonyie guoko mbaru-inĩ ciake, ndingĩĩtĩkia ũhoro ũcio.”
So the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will certainly not believe.”
26 Thuutha wa kiumia kĩmwe, arutwo ake maarĩ kũu nyũmba rĩngĩ, na Toma aarĩ hamwe nao. O na gũtuĩka mĩrango yarĩ mĩhinge-rĩ, Jesũ agĩũka, akĩrũgama gatagatĩ-inĩ kao, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Gĩai na thayũ!”
Eight days later, Jesus' disciples were again inside, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
27 Agĩcooka akĩĩra Toma atĩrĩ, “Toonyia kĩara gĩaku haha; rora moko makwa. Tambũrũkia guoko gwaku ũgũikie mbaru-inĩ ciakwa. Tiga kũgĩa na nganja, ĩtĩkia.”
Then he said to Thomas, “Put yoʋr finger here and look at my hands. Reach out yoʋr hand and put it into my side. Do not doubt but believe.”
28 Nake Toma akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani wakwa na Ngai wakwa!”
In response Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wetĩkia tondũ nĩwanyona. Kũrathimwo nĩ arĩa metĩkagia matonete.”
Then Jesus said to him, “Because yoʋ have seen me, have yoʋ come to believe? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.”
30 Jesũ nĩaringire ciama ingĩ nyingĩ akĩonagwo nĩ arutwo ake, iria itaandĩkĩtwo Ibuku-inĩ rĩĩrĩ.
Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 No rĩrĩ, ici ciandĩkĩtwo nĩgeetha mwĩtĩkie atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ, Mũrũ wa Ngai, na atĩ na ũndũ wa gwĩtĩkia mũgĩe na muoyo thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake.
But these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
