Yohanes 4
1 Ketika Tuhan Yesus mengetahui, bahwa orang-orang Farisi telah mendengar, bahwa Ia memperoleh dan membaptis murid lebih banyak dari pada Yohanes
[At that time, many people were asking] Jesus to baptize them. He did not baptize people; it was [we] his disciples who were doing the baptizing. But when some of the Pharisee [religious group] heard [people say that] Jesus was making more disciples than John [the Baptizer] and was baptizing them, [they became very jealous].
2 --meskipun Yesus sendiri tidak membaptis, melainkan murid-murid-Nya, --
3 Iapun meninggalkan Yudea dan kembali lagi ke Galilea.
When the Lord [Jesus] heard about that, [so that the Pharisees would not cause trouble for him], he left Judea [district], and went again [with us disciples] to Galilee district.
4 Ia harus melintasi daerah Samaria.
[He] knew that God wanted him to travel through Samaria [district].
5 Maka sampailah Ia ke sebuah kota di Samaria, yang bernama Sikhar dekat tanah yang diberikan Yakub dahulu kepada anaknya, Yusuf.
So we arrived at a town named Sychar in Samaria [district]. That was near the plot of ground that [our ancestor] Jacob had given to his son Joseph [long ago].
6 Di situ terdapat sumur Yakub. Yesus sangat letih oleh perjalanan, karena itu Ia duduk di pinggir sumur itu. Hari kira-kira pukul dua belas.
The well that [used to] belong to Jacob was on that plot of ground. Jesus was tired from walking. So while [we] disciples went into the town to buy some food, he sat down alongside the well. It was about noontime. A woman who [lived there] in Samaria came to get some water [from the well]. Jesus said to her, “Will you give me [from the well] some water [to drink]?” The [woman knew that] Jews did not like ([to touch things that belong to] Samaritans/[to] come near Samaritans), (OR, Jews did not like to associate with Samaritans, )
7 Maka datanglah seorang perempuan Samaria hendak menimba air. Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Berilah Aku minum."
8 Sebab murid-murid-Nya telah pergi ke kota membeli makanan.
9 Maka kata perempuan Samaria itu kepada-Nya: "Masakan Engkau, seorang Yahudi, minta minum kepadaku, seorang Samaria?" (Sebab orang Yahudi tidak bergaul dengan orang Samaria.)
so the woman said to him, “You are a Jew, and I am from Samaria. Furthermore, I am a woman. So ([I am surprised] that you are asking me for a drink [of water]!/how is it that you are asking me for a drink [of water]?) [RHQ]”
10 Jawab Yesus kepadanya: "Jikalau engkau tahu tentang karunia Allah dan siapakah Dia yang berkata kepadamu: Berilah Aku minum! niscaya engkau telah meminta kepada-Nya dan Ia telah memberikan kepadamu air hidup."
Jesus replied to her, “If you [(sg)] knew what God [wanted to] give you, and if you knew who I am, the one who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked me, and I would have given you water that gives life.”
11 Kata perempuan itu kepada-Nya: "Tuhan, Engkau tidak punya timba dan sumur ini amat dalam; dari manakah Engkau memperoleh air hidup itu?
She [thought he was talking about] ordinary [water. So she] said to him, “Sir, you do not have a bucket [or a rope with which to get water from the well], and the well is deep. So [since you cannot get water from this well], where can you get that life-giving water?
12 Adakah Engkau lebih besar dari pada bapa kami Yakub, yang memberikan sumur ini kepada kami dan yang telah minum sendiri dari dalamnya, ia serta anak-anaknya dan ternaknya?"
Our ancestor Jacob left us this well. He drank water from it, and there was [enough good water] so that his sons and his flocks [of sheep] and goats drank from it also. [Do you claim that] you are greater than Jacob, [and because of that you can give us life-giving water]?”
13 Jawab Yesus kepadanya: "Barangsiapa minum air ini, ia akan haus lagi,
Jesus replied to her, “Everyone who drinks water from this [well] will later become thirsty again.
15 Kata perempuan itu kepada-Nya: "Tuhan, berikanlah aku air itu, supaya aku tidak haus dan tidak usah datang lagi ke sini untuk menimba air."
The woman [did not understand that Jesus was speaking figuratively about something that would sustain her spiritually. So she] said to him, “Sir, give me that kind of water so that I will not get thirsty again, and so that I will not have to keep returning here to get water!”
16 Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Pergilah, panggillah suamimu dan datang ke sini."
[Jesus knew that she did not understand, but he wanted to show her by his God-given knowledge of her personal life that because he was the Messiah he could supply her spiritual need. So] he said to her, “Woman, go and call your husband, and bring him here!”
17 Kata perempuan itu: "Aku tidak mempunyai suami." Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Tepat katamu, bahwa engkau tidak mempunyai suami,
She replied, “I do not have a husband!” Jesus said to her, “You said that you do not have a husband, and that is true.
18 sebab engkau sudah mempunyai lima suami dan yang ada sekarang padamu, bukanlah suamimu. Dalam hal ini engkau berkata benar."
It is also true that you have had five husbands [one by one]. And the man you are living with now is not your husband! What you have said is very true.”
19 Kata perempuan itu kepada-Nya: "Tuhan, nyata sekarang padaku, bahwa Engkau seorang nabi.
The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you must be a prophet [because you are] able [to know people’s secrets].
20 Nenek moyang kami menyembah di atas gunung ini, tetapi kamu katakan, bahwa Yerusalemlah tempat orang menyembah."
But [let me ask you a different question]: Our ancestors worshipped God here on [Gerizim Mountain], but you [Jews] say that Jerusalem is the place where we must worship [God. So who is right]?”
21 Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Percayalah kepada-Ku, hai perempuan, saatnya akan tiba, bahwa kamu akan menyembah Bapa bukan di gunung ini dan bukan juga di Yerusalem.
Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me [when I say that] there will be a time when it will not [matter whether] you worship [God our] Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem [or somewhere else].
22 Kamu menyembah apa yang tidak kamu kenal, kami menyembah apa yang kami kenal, sebab keselamatan datang dari bangsa Yahudi.
You [people from Samaria] do not know the one you are worshipping. But we [(exc) Jews] know whom we worship, because it is from [us] Jews that [God has sent the one who] will save people [from the guilt of their sins].
23 Tetapi saatnya akan datang dan sudah tiba sekarang, bahwa penyembah-penyembah benar akan menyembah Bapa dalam roh dan kebenaran; sebab Bapa menghendaki penyembah-penyembah demikian.
However, there will be a time when those who genuinely worship God will worship him as [God’s] Spirit [directs] and according to [God’s] truth. In fact, that time is now. Those are the kind of worshipers my Father seeks.
24 Allah itu Roh dan barangsiapa menyembah Dia, harus menyembah-Nya dalam roh dan kebenaran."
God is a spiritual being. So it is necessary that those who worship him must worship him as his Spirit [directs] and [according to God’s] truth.”
25 Jawab perempuan itu kepada-Nya: "Aku tahu, bahwa Mesias akan datang, yang disebut juga Kristus; apabila Ia datang, Ia akan memberitakan segala sesuatu kepada kami."
The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming. When he comes, he will tell us everything [we need to know].” (‘Messiah’ and ‘Christ’ [both mean ‘God’s promised king]’.)
26 Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Akulah Dia, yang sedang berkata-kata dengan engkau."
Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you, am [the Messiah]!”
27 Pada waktu itu datanglah murid-murid-Nya dan mereka heran, bahwa Ia sedang bercakap-cakap dengan seorang perempuan. Tetapi tidak seorangpun yang berkata: "Apa yang Engkau kehendaki? Atau: Apa yang Engkau percakapkan dengan dia?"
Just then [we] disciples returned [from town]. [Since it was contrary to our custom for Jewish religious teachers to converse with a woman they did not know], we were surprised that he was talking to a woman. However, none of us asked her, “What do you want?” and none of us asked him, “Why are you talking with her?”
28 Maka perempuan itu meninggalkan tempayannya di situ lalu pergi ke kota dan berkata kepada orang-orang yang di situ:
The woman left her water jar there and went into the town. She said to the people there,
29 "Mari, lihat! Di sana ada seorang yang mengatakan kepadaku segala sesuatu yang telah kuperbuat. Mungkinkah Dia Kristus itu?"
“Come and see a man who [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP], [even though I never met him before] Could this man be the Messiah?”
30 Maka merekapun pergi ke luar kota lalu datang kepada Yesus.
So [many people] left the town and started going to where Jesus was.
31 Sementara itu murid-murid-Nya mengajak Dia, katanya: "Rabi, makanlah."
Meanwhile, we disciples were urging him, “Teacher, eat [some of the food we brought]!”
32 Akan tetapi Ia berkata kepada mereka: "Pada-Ku ada makanan yang tidak kamu kenal."
But he said to us, “I have food to eat that you do not know anything about!”
33 Maka murid-murid itu berkata seorang kepada yang lain: "Adakah orang yang telah membawa sesuatu kepada-Nya untuk dimakan?"
So we started saying to each other, “(Surely no one has brought him any food [when we] were not [here]!/Has anyone brought him any food [when we] were not [here]?) [RHQ]”
34 Kata Yesus kepada mereka: "Makanan-Ku ialah melakukan kehendak Dia yang mengutus Aku dan menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya.
Jesus said to us, “Doing what [my Father] who sent me wants [me to do] and finishing the work he [gave me to do] is ([what sustains me/like] my food) [MET].
35 Bukankah kamu mengatakan: Empat bulan lagi tibalah musim menuai? Tetapi Aku berkata kepadamu: Lihatlah sekelilingmu dan pandanglah ladang-ladang yang sudah menguning dan matang untuk dituai.
[At this time of the year] you are saying (OR, your ancestors used to say), ‘There are four months left before we harvest [the crops].’ But I say to you, look carefully [at the non-Jewish people around here. God says, ‘They are ready to accept my message] [MET], [like crops in] fields that are ready for people to harvest.
36 Sekarang juga penuai telah menerima upahnya dan ia mengumpulkan buah untuk hidup yang kekal, sehingga penabur dan penuai sama-sama bersukacita. (aiōnios g166)
[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios g166)
37 Sebab dalam hal ini benarlah peribahasa: Yang seorang menabur dan yang lain menuai.
As a result, this saying will become true: One person plants [seeds], but others harvest [the crops].
38 Aku mengutus kamu untuk menuai apa yang tidak kamu usahakan; orang-orang lain berusaha dan kamu datang memetik hasil usaha mereka."
I am sending you [to enable people to accept my message, but you will not be the first ones who tell them God’s message]. Others [previously] worked hard [to tell people God’s message], and now you will be harvesting the results of their work.”
39 Dan banyak orang Samaria dari kota itu telah menjadi percaya kepada-Nya karena perkataan perempuan itu, yang bersaksi: "Ia mengatakan kepadaku segala sesuatu yang telah kuperbuat."
Many of the Samaria [district] people who [lived] in that town believed that Jesus [was the Messiah] because they heard what that woman said [about Jesus], “That man [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP]!”
40 Ketika orang-orang Samaria itu sampai kepada Yesus, mereka meminta kepada-Nya, supaya Ia tinggal pada mereka; dan Iapun tinggal di situ dua hari lamanya.
So when those people of Samaria came to Jesus, they urged him to stay with them. So we stayed there two days.
41 Dan lebih banyak lagi orang yang menjadi percaya karena perkataan-Nya,
Many more of those people believed ([in Jesus/that he was the Messiah]) because of what he said.
42 dan mereka berkata kepada perempuan itu: "Kami percaya, tetapi bukan lagi karena apa yang kaukatakan, sebab kami sendiri telah mendengar Dia dan kami tahu, bahwa Dialah benar-benar Juruselamat dunia."
They told the woman, “We believe in Jesus [now], but not [just] because of what you told us. Now we have heard him ourselves. And now we know that this man truly is the one who [can] save [people] [MTY] [from the guilt of their sins].”
43 Dan setelah dua hari itu Yesus berangkat dari sana ke Galilea,
Jesus had said [previously] that people did not honor prophets [like himself when they tried to teach people] in their own home area. So, two days later, Jesus and [we] disciples left that area and went to [his own area in] Galilee [district, because he knew that people there would not think very highly of him, and as a result the Jewish leaders would not be jealous].
44 sebab Yesus sendiri telah bersaksi, bahwa seorang nabi tidak dihormati di negerinya sendiri.
45 Maka setelah ia tiba di Galilea, orang-orang Galileapun menyambut Dia, karena mereka telah melihat segala sesuatu yang dikerjakan-Nya di Yerusalem pada pesta itu, sebab mereka sendiripun turut ke pesta itu.
However, when we arrived in Galilee [district, many] of the people there welcomed him, because they had been in Jerusalem during the [Passover] celebration and had seen all the things he did there.
46 Maka Yesus kembali lagi ke Kana di Galilea, di mana Ia membuat air menjadi anggur. Dan di Kapernaum ada seorang pegawai istana, anaknya sedang sakit.
Jesus went again to Cana in Galilee [district]. That was where he [previously] turned water into wine. There was one of the king’s officials who lived in Capernaum, whose son was very sick.
47 Ketika ia mendengar, bahwa Yesus telah datang dari Yudea ke Galilea, pergilah ia kepada-Nya lalu meminta, supaya Ia datang dan menyembuhkan anaknya, sebab anaknya itu hampir mati.
When that man heard [others say] that Jesus had returned to Galilee [district] from Judea [district], he went to Jesus [in Cana] and pleaded with him, “Please come down [to Capernaum] and heal my son, who is about to die!”
48 Maka kata Yesus kepadanya: "Jika kamu tidak melihat tanda dan mujizat, kamu tidak percaya."
Jesus said to him, “You people will believe my message only if you see me perform [more] miracles!”
49 Pegawai istana itu berkata kepada-Nya: "Tuhan, datanglah sebelum anakku mati."
But the official said to him, “Sir, ([I] believe [in you/I believe that you came from God]). [So please] come down [to my home] before my son dies!”
50 Kata Yesus kepadanya: "Pergilah, anakmu hidup!" Orang itu percaya akan perkataan yang dikatakan Yesus kepadanya, lalu pergi.
Jesus said to him, “Then you may go [home]. Your son (will live/not die)!” The man believed what Jesus said, and left.
51 Ketika ia masih di tengah jalan hamba-hambanya telah datang kepadanya dengan kabar, bahwa anaknya hidup.
[The next day] while he was on the way home, his servants met him. They told him, “Your child is going to live!”
52 Ia bertanya kepada mereka pukul berapa anak itu mulai sembuh. Jawab mereka: "Kemarin siang pukul satu demamnya hilang."
He asked them, “At what time did my son start to become well?” They said to him, “His fever ceased yesterday [afternoon] at one o’clock.”
53 Maka teringatlah ayah itu, bahwa pada saat itulah Yesus berkata kepadanya: "Anakmu hidup." Lalu iapun percaya, ia dan seluruh keluarganya.
Then the boy’s father realized that this was the time Jesus told him, “Your son will (live/not die).” So he and all the people in his house believed [that Jesus was the Messiah].
54 Dan itulah tanda kedua yang dibuat Yesus ketika Ia pulang dari Yudea ke Galilea.
That was the second miracle that Jesus performed in Galilee [district], after he had returned from Judea [district].
