Johana 4
1 Afarisai nĩmaiguire atĩ Jesũ nĩagĩĩaga na arutwo aingĩ gũkĩra Johana na akamabatithia,
When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 o na gũtuĩka, ti Jesũ wabatithanagia, no nĩ arutwo ake.
(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples, )
3 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mwathani aamenyire ũhoro ũcio, akiuma Judea na agĩcooka Galili o rĩngĩ.
He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 Na rĩrĩ, no nginya angĩatuĩkanĩirie bũrũri wa Samaria.
And he must needs go through Samaria.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, agĩkinya itũũra rĩarĩ Samaria rĩetagwo Sukaru, hakuhĩ na gĩthaka kĩrĩa Jakubu aaheete mũriũ Jusufu.
Then he cometh to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground, that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Nakĩo gĩthima kĩa Jakubu nĩkuo kĩarĩ, nake Jesũ, tondũ wa kũnoga nĩ rũgendo, agĩikara thĩ hau gĩthima-inĩ. Na kwarĩ ta thaa thita.
Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore being wearied with [his] journey, sat thus on the well: [and] it was about the sixth hour.
7 Na rĩrĩa mũtumia ũmwe Mũsamaria okire gũtaha maaĩ-rĩ, Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “No ũũhe maaĩ ma kũnyua?”
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.
8 (Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo ake nĩmathiĩte kũgũra irio itũũra-inĩ.)
(For his disciples had gone to the city to buy provisions.)
9 Nake mũtumia ũcio Mũsamaria akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ Mũyahudi na niĩ ndĩ mũtumia Mũsamaria. Ũngĩkĩĩhooya gĩa kũnyua atĩa?” (Nĩgũkorwo Ayahudi matirĩ ngwatanĩro na Asamaria.)
Then saith the woman of Samaria to him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Korwo nĩũũĩ kĩheo kĩa Ngai na ũkamenya nũũ ũrakũhooya maaĩ ma kũnyua, wee nĩwe ũngĩamũhooya nake nĩangĩakũhe maaĩ ma muoyo.”
Jesus answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldst have asked him, and he would have given thee living water.
11 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, ndũrĩ na kĩndũ gĩa gũtaha maaĩ nakĩo, na gĩthima gĩkĩ nĩ kĩriku. Ũngĩkĩruta kũ maaĩ macio ma muoyo?
The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
12 Anga ũkĩrĩ mũnene gũkĩra ithe witũ Jakubu ũrĩa watũheire gĩthima gĩkĩ, na we mwene aatũũrĩte anyuuaga maaĩ kuuma kĩo o hamwe na ariũ ake na ndũũru ciake cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe?”
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe ũnyuuaga maaĩ maya nĩanyootaga rĩngĩ,
Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinketh of this water, shall thirst again:
15 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, he maaĩ macio nĩguo ndikananyoote rĩngĩ, na ndige gũũkaga haha gũtaha maaĩ.”
The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, neither come hither to draw.
16 Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ wĩte mũthuuriguo mũũke nake.”
Jesus saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndirĩ na mũthuuri.” Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ waria ma rĩrĩa woiga atĩ ndũrĩ na mũthuuri.
The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18 Ũhoro wa ma nĩ atĩ ũkoretwo ũrĩ na athuuri atano, na mũndũ mũrũme ũrĩa ũrĩ nake rĩu ti mũthuuriguo. Ũguo woiga nĩ ũhoro wa ma.”
For thou hast had five husbands, and he whom thou now hast, is not thy husband: in that thou hast spoken truth.
19 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩndĩrona atĩ wee ũrĩ mũnabii.
The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Maithe maitũ maahooyagĩra Ngai kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩkĩ, no inyuĩ Ayahudi muugaga atĩ Jerusalemu nokuo kũndũ kũrĩa twagĩrĩirwo nĩkũhooyagĩra Ngai.”
Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ, njĩtĩkia, kũrĩ ihinda rĩroka rĩrĩa mũtakaahooyagĩra Baba kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩkĩ o na kana Jerusalemu.
Jesus saith to her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Inyuĩ Asamaria mũhooyaga kĩrĩa mũtooĩ; no ithuĩ tũhooyaga kĩrĩa tũũĩ, nĩgũkorwo ũhonokio uumĩte kũrĩ Ayahudi.
Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship, for salvation is from the Jews.
23 No ihinda nĩrĩroka na rĩu nĩrĩkinyu, rĩrĩa arĩa mahooyaga na ma makaahooyaga Baba na roho, na mamũhooyage na ma, nĩgũkorwo nĩ andũ ta acio Baba acaragia a kũmũhooyaga.
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 Ngai nĩ roho, nao arĩa mamũhooyaga no nginya mamũhooyage na roho, na mamũhooyage na ma.”
God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him, must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.
25 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Mesia” (ũrĩa wĩtagwo Kristũ) “nĩarooka. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa agooka nĩagatũtaarĩria maũndũ mothe.”
The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh, who is called Christ; when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩrakwarĩria nĩ niĩ we.”
Jesus saith to her, I that speak to thee am [he].
27 O ihinda-inĩ rĩu arutwo ake magĩũka, na makĩgega maakora akĩaranĩria na mũtumia. No gũtirĩ o na ũmwe woririe atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ ũrenda?” kana akĩũria, “Ũraaranĩria nake nĩkĩ?”
And upon this came his disciples, and marveled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 O hĩndĩ ĩyo mũtumia ũcio agĩtiga ndigithũ yake ya maaĩ, agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ, akĩĩra andũ atĩrĩ,
The woman then left her waterpot, and went into the city, and saith to the men,
29 “Ũkai, mũkone mũndũ wanjĩĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe ndaaneka. Ũcio no akorwo nĩwe Kristũ?”
Come, see a man who hath told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Nao makiuma kũu itũũra-inĩ, magĩthiĩ harĩa Jesũ aarĩ.
Then they went out of the city, and came to him.
31 Mũira wa makinye, arutwo ake makĩmũringĩrĩria makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rabii, rĩa irio.”
In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32 Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na irio cia kũrĩa, iria mũtarĩ ũndũ wacio mũũĩ.”
But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.
33 Nao arutwo ake makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ hihi harĩ mũndũ ũmũreheire irio?”
Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?
34 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Irio ciakwa nĩ gwĩka wendi wa ũrĩa wandũmire na kũrĩĩkia wĩra wake.
Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Githĩ mũtiugaga atĩ, ‘Nĩ mĩeri ĩna ĩtigarĩte magetha makinye’? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, hingũrai maitho manyu muone mĩgũnda! Magetha nĩmakinyu.
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 O na rĩu mũgethi nĩagĩĩaga na mũcaara wake, o na nĩagethaga magetha ma muoyo wa tene na tene, nĩgeetha mũhaandi na mũgethi makenanĩre hamwe. (aiōnios g166)
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit to life eternal: that both he that soweth, and he that reapeth, may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Amu nĩ ũhoro wa ma ũrĩa uugaga atĩ, ‘Ũmwe ahaandaga, nake ũngĩ akagetha.’
And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38 Niĩ ndaamũtũmire mũkagethe kĩrĩa mũtarutĩire wĩra. Angĩ nĩo marutĩte wĩra mũritũ, na inyuĩ mũkagetha uumithio wa wĩra wao.”
I sent you to reap that on which ye bestowed no labor: other men labored, and ye have entered into their labors.
39 Nao Asamaria aingĩ kuuma itũũra rĩu makĩmwĩtĩkia nĩ ũndũ wa ũira wa mũtumia ũcio, tondũ nĩameerire atĩrĩ, “Nĩanjĩĩrire maũndũ marĩa mothe ndaneeka.”
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, who testified, He told me all that ever I did.
40 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Asamaria mokire kũrĩ Jesũ, makĩmũringĩrĩria aikaranie nao, nake agĩikara mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ.
So when the Samaritans had come to him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
41 Na tondũ wa ciugo ciake, andũ angĩ aingĩ magĩĩtĩkia.
And many more believed, because of his own word;
42 Magĩkĩĩra mũtumia ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũtiretĩkia no ũndũ wa ũrĩa ũratwĩrire; rĩu nĩtwĩiguĩrĩire ithuĩ ene na tũkamenya atĩ mũndũ ũyũ ti-itherũ nĩwe Mũhonokia wa kĩrĩndĩ.”
And said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard [him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.
43 Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩyo ĩĩrĩ, akiumagara agĩthiĩ Galili.
Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
44 (Amu Jesũ we mwene nĩoigĩte atĩ mũnabii ndatĩĩagwo bũrũri-inĩ wake mwene.)
For Jesus himself testified that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 Rĩrĩa aakinyire Galili, andũ a Galili makĩmũnyiita ũgeni. Nĩmonete ũrĩa wothe ekĩte Jerusalemu hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ gĩa Bathaka, nĩgũkorwo o nao maarĩ kuo.
Then when he had come into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went to the feast.
46 O rĩngĩ agĩceera Kana ya Galili, kũrĩa aagarũrĩte maaĩ magatuĩka ndibei. Na kũu Kaperinaumu nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ ũmwe mũnene warĩ na mũriũ mũrũaru.
So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 Rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio aaiguire atĩ Jesũ nĩoimĩte Judea agooka Galili, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmũthaitha athiĩ akahonie mũriũ, ũrĩa warĩ hakuhĩ gũkua.
When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
48 Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũtangĩona ciama na morirũ, mũtingĩtĩkia.”
Then said Jesus to him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
49 Nake mũnene ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩtũikũrũke mwana wakwa atanakua.”
The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down ere my child dieth.
50 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Inũka. Mũrũguo nĩekũhona.” Mũndũ ũcio agĩĩtĩkia ũguo Jesũ aamwĩrire, na akĩinũka.
Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken to him, and he departed.
51 Naarĩ njĩra akĩinũka, ndungata ciake ikĩmũtũnga na ndũmĩrĩri atĩ mũrũwe arĩ o muoyo.
And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told [him], saying, Thy son liveth.
52 Rĩrĩa aamooririe nĩ ta thaa ciigana mũriũ aambĩrĩirie kũigua wega, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ira thaa mũgwanja nĩguo araahonire.”
Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend: and they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Nake ithe akĩmenya atĩ thaa icio nocio Jesũ aramwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũrũguo nĩekũhona.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio we na nyũmba yake yothe magĩĩtĩkia.
So the father knew that [it was] at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son liveth: and he himself believed, and his whole house.
54 Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩarĩ kĩama gĩa keerĩ kĩrĩa Jesũ aaringire kũu Galili, oimĩte Judea.
This [is] again the second miracle [that] Jesus performed, when he had come from Judea into Galilee.
