Jọn 2
1 Nʼụbọchị nke atọ, o nwere mmemme agbamakwụkwọ na Kena nke Galili, nne Jisọs bịakwara ebe ahụ.
On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:
2 A kpọkwara Jisọs na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya oku na mmemme agbamakwụkwọ a.
And Jesus with his disciples came as guests.
3 Mgbe mmanya ha gwụrụ, nne Jisọs sịrị ya, “Ha enweghị mmanya.”
When they had not enough wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.
4 Jisọs sịrị ya, “Nwanyị, gịnị gbasara mụ na gị na nke a? Oge awa m erubeghị.”
Jesus said to her, Woman, this is not your business; my time is still to come.
5 Nne ya gwara ndị na-eje ozi, “Ihe ọbụla ọ gwara unu, meenụ ya.”
His mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.
6 A dọbara ite mmiri nkume isii buru ibu nʼakụkụ ebe ahụ, nke a na-eji agbanye mmiri ndị Juu na-eji asachasị onwe ha ma ha chọọ ikpe ekpere. Otu nʼime ha na-eri ihe dị ka galọọnụ iri abụọ ma ihe ruru iri atọ.
Now six pots of stone, every one taking two or three firkins of water, were placed there for the purpose of washing, as is the way of the Jews.
7 Jisọs gwara ha, “Gbajuonụ ite ndị a mmiri.” Ya mere, ha gbajupụtara ha mmiri.
Jesus said to the servants, Make the pots full of water. And they made them full to the top.
8 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ha, “Ugbu a, gbapụtanụ ụfọdụ bugara onyeisi oche.” Ha mekwara nke a.
Then he said to them, Now take some, and give it to the master of the feast. So they took it to him.
9 Mgbe ahụ onyeisi oche ahụ detụrụ mmiri ahụ e mere ka ọ ghọọ mmanya ọnụ. Ọ mataghị ebe o siri pụta (ma ndị na-eje ozi, ndị kutere mmiri ahụ matara), onyeisi oche ahụ kpọpụtara onye ahụ na-alụ nwunye ọhụrụ iche
After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,
10 sị ya, “Nʼoge mmemme ọbụla, a na-ebu ụzọ buputa mmanya dị ụtọ, ma bupụtakwa nke na-adịghị ụtọ nʼikpeazụ, mgbe ndị mmadụ ṅụjuchara afọ, ma i chebere mmanya dị ụtọ buputa ya ugbu a.”
And said to him, Every man first puts out his best wine and when all have had enough he puts out what is not so good; but you have kept the good wine till now.
11 Nke a bụ mmalite ihe ama Jisọs mere na Kena nke Galili, o sitere na nke a kpughee ebube ya, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya kwenyekwara na ya.
This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and let his glory be seen openly; and his disciples put their faith in him.
12 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, ọ gara Kapanọm, ya na nne ya na ụmụnne ya, nakwa ndị na-eso ụzọ ya. Ha nọrọ ụbọchị ole na ole nʼebe ahụ.
After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples, and they were there not more than two or three days.
13 Mgbe mmemme oriri Ngabiga nke ndị Juu na-abịaru nso, Jisọs gara Jerusalem.
The time of the Passover of the Jews was near and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 Nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu, ọ hụrụ ndị na-ere ehi, na atụrụ na nduru. Hụkwa ndị nọdụrụ na tebul na-agbanwe ego.
And there in the Temple he saw men trading in oxen and sheep and doves, and he saw the changers of money in their seats:
15 Ya mere, o jiri eriri mere ụtarị chụpụsịa ndị niile nọ na-ere ahịa nʼụlọnsọ ukwu ahụ, tinyekwara ehi na atụrụ ha. Ọ kwafusịrị mkpụrụ ego ndị ahụ na-agbanwe ego, kpugharịakwa tebul ha ihu.
And he made a whip of small cords and put them all out of the Temple, with the sheep and the oxen, sending in all directions the small money of the changers and overturning their tables;
16 Ọ sịrị ndị ahụ na-ere nduru, “Wepụnụ ihe ndị a nʼebe a. Kwụsịnụ ime ụlọ Nna m ka ọ bụrụ ebe a na-azụ ahịa.”
And to those who were trading in doves he said, Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a market.
17 Ndị na-eso ụzọ ya chetara na e dere ya rịị nʼakwụkwọ nsọ, “Ihe banyere ụlọ gị na-anụ m ọkụ nʼobi.”
And it came to the minds of the disciples that the Writings say, I am on fire with passion for your house.
18 Ma ndị Juu sịrị ya, “Olee ihe ịrịbama ị pụrụ igosi anyị na ikike i ji eme ihe ndị a.”
Then the Jews put this question to him: What sign of authority have you to give us, seeing that you do these things?
19 Jisọs zara sị, “Kwatuonụ ụlọnsọ ukwu a, aga m ewughachikwa ya nʼabalị atọ.”
And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.
20 Ndị Juu kwuru, “Ụlọnsọ ukwu a were anyị iri afọ anọ na isii ịrụ ya, ị ga-ewughachi ya nʼabalị atọ?”
The Jews said, The building of this Temple took forty-six years; and you will put it up in three days!
21 Ma ụlọnsọ o kwuru maka ya bụ ahụ ya.
But his words were about that holy building which was his body.
22 Ndị na-eso ụzọ ya chetara okwu ya a mgbe o siri nʼọnwụ bilie. Mgbe ahụkwa, ha kweere akwụkwọ nsọ ya na okwu niile Jisọs kwuru.
So when he had come back again from the dead, the memory of these words came back to the disciples, and they had faith in the holy Writings and in the word which Jesus had said.
23 Mgbe ọ nọ na Jerusalem nʼoge Mmemme Ngabiga, ọtụtụ mmadụ hụrụ ihe ịrịbama o mere kweere na ya.
Now while he was in Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover, a great number of people came to have faith in his name, after seeing the signs which he did.
24 Ma Jisọs atụkwasịghị ha obi nʼihi na ọ matara mmadụ niile nke ọma.
But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.
25 Ọ dịghị ya mkpa ka onye ọbụla gbaa akaebe banyere ụmụ mmadụ, nʼihi na ya onwe ya maara ihe dị nʼime mmadụ.
He had no need for any witness about man; for he himself had knowledge of what was in man.
