< Joni 2 >

1 Hagi tare knamofo amefi knazupa, arave hunaku Kana kumate Galili kaziga nehazageno, Jisasi nerera'a anante mani'ne.
Two days later a wedding was held at Cana in Galilee, and Jesus' mother was there.
2 Ana hige'za Jisasine Agri amagenentaza disaipol naga'anena, aravema huku'ma hazarega zamagi hazage'za vu'naze.
Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
3 Wainima vagaregeno'a, Jisasi nerera'a asmino, waini tina hagovagare'ne huno Agrira asmi'ne.
The wine ran out, so Jesus' mother told him, “They don't have any more wine.”
4 Higeno Jisasi'a nererana amanage huno asmi'ne, Ama a' moke, Nagra naza ama zampina huku hugenka nehane? Nagri kna zahufa efore osu'ne.
“Mother, why should you involve me? My time hasn't come yet,” he replied.
5 Jisasina nerera'a eri'za vaheku anage huno zamasmi'ne, Agrama inankna kema tamagri'ma tamasminia'zana hiho.
His mother told the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”
6 Higeno keana 6si'a havereti tro hunte ti afi kavo Juda vahe'mokizmi avu'avapina kavofinti ankehi'za tina fre'za avu sese nehazane, tina mago 100 lita azeritere huga tin kavorami me'ne.
Standing nearby were six stone jars used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each one holding twenty to thirty gallons.
7 Jisasi'a eri'za vahe huzmanteno Ana kavo zagafi ti ome afi viteho hige'za tina ome afi vite'naze.
“Fill the jars with water,” Jesus told them. So they filled them right up.
8 Higeno Jisasi'a anage hu'ne, Anampinti mago'a afita ne'zante kva hu'nea nera ome amiho, hige'za afi'za ome ami'naze.
Then he told them, “Pour some out, and take it to the master of ceremonies.” So they took him some.
9 Ana ne'mo tima neno keana waini ti fore higeno, igati efore hu'neo antahino keno osu'ne, (hagi tima omefi'naza vahe'mo'za antahiza ke'za hu'naze), kavete kva hu'nea ne'mo aravema hia ne' asmino,
The master of ceremonies didn't know where it had come from, only the servants knew. But when he tasted the water that had been turned to wine, he called the bridegroom over.
10 maka vahe'mo'za pusante knare wainia tagi zamige'za kema hazage'za, aza vahe'mo'za netageno, anante evurami'nea wainia tagi zamige'za nenaze. Nehazanagi kagra knare wainia ante'nanteti menina eri fore hane!
“Everyone serves out the best wine first,” he told him, “and once people have had plenty to drink, then they put out the cheaper wine. But you have kept the best wine till last!”
11 Ama kaguvazana Agra'a ese erigafa huno Jisasi'a Galili kaziga Kana kumate nehuno, Agri'a hihamu masa zama'a eri ama hige'za, Agri amage nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za Agrite zamentinti hu'naze.
This was the very first of Jesus' miraculous signs, and was performed in Cana of Galilee. Here he revealed his glory, and his disciples put their trust in him.
12 Anama huteno Jisasi'a Kapaneamu urami'ne, Agrane nerera ene afuhe'zane amagema nentaza disaipol naga'anena ana kumate vu'za mago'a zagegna umani'naze.
After this Jesus left for Capernaum with his mother, brothers, and disciples where they stayed for a few days.
13 Hagi Jiu vahe'ma kinafinti zamare'nea (Pasova) ne'za'ne knamo kofta higeno Jisasi'a Jerusalemi kumate mareri'ne.
Since it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went on to Jerusalem.
14 Vuno ra mono nompi omege'neana vahe'mo'a bulimakaoma, sipisipi'ma, maho namane, zago rezahe nehaza vahe'mo'za tra omente emente hu'za maketi nehazageno ome zamage'ne.
In the Temple he found people selling cattle, sheep, and doves; and money-changers sitting at their tables.
15 Ome zamageteno nofite kano tro hiazamo ra mono nompintira sipisipi'ne bulimakaone vahe'ene zamahenati'netreno zagoma rezahe'ma nehaza naga'mokizmi zagoa ruherafi netreno, ita zamia eriruvahe huherfi'ne.
He made a whip out of cords and drove everyone out of the Temple, along with the sheep and cattle, scattering coins of the money-changers and turning over their tables.
16 Hagi maho namama maketima nehaza vaheku, Ama nama avreta viho. Nafa'nimofo nona maketi kumara eri tro osiho, huno zamasmi'ne.
He ordered the dove-sellers, “Take these things out of here! Don't turn my Father's house into a market!”
17 Agri amage nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za, kasnampa vahe'mo'za avontafepi kre'nea kegu zamagesa antahi'naze. Amanage huno kre'ne Kagri noma kegava hu'na mani'navesizamo'a nagu'afina tusiza huno navenesie. (Sam-Zga 69:9)
His disciples remembered the Scripture that says, “My devotion for your house is like a fire burning inside me!”
18 Jiu vahe'mo'za Agriku anage hu'naze, Kagra inankna avame'za tagrira huraverisanketa negeta ama nera mrerisa nere huta hugahune?
The Jewish leaders reacted, asking him, “What right do you have to do this? Show us some miraculous sign to prove it!”
19 Hazageno Jisasi'a ana kemofo nona'a amanage hu'ne, Ama ra mono nona tgana vazitma eri haviza hinkeno tagufa zagegna manite'na azeri oti'neno, huno hige'za,
Jesus replied, “Destroy this Temple, and in three days I'll raise it up!”
20 anante Jiu vahe'mo'za anage hu'naze, 46'a zagegafu eri fri'za ama mono nona ki'naze. Hagi Kagra inankna hunka tagufa zage knafina kigahane?
“It took forty-six years to build this Temple, and you're going to raise it up in three days?” the Jewish leaders replied.
21 Hianagi ra mono nonku'ma kema hu'neana, Agra avufagu hunteno hu'ne.
But the Temple Jesus was speaking of was his body.
22 Anagema hu'nere, fri'nefinti'ma otige'za, Agri amage nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za e'inahu zanku hu'ne hu'za zamagesa antahi'naze. Nentahi'za avon tafemo hu'nea kere ene, Jisasi'ma hu'nea nanekere zamagesa nentahi'za zamentinti hu'naze.
After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered what he said, and so they believed in Scripture and Jesus' own words.
23 Hagi kinafinti zamavare'nea kna antahimiza (Pasova) muse ne'zama ne'knare Jerusalemi mani'nege'za, hakaremo'za kaguvazama Agrama hiazana nege'za ke'naze Agri agire zamentinti hu'naze.
As a result of the miracles Jesus did while he was in Jerusalem during the Passover, many believed in him.
24 Hu'nazanagi, Jisasi'a Agra kazigatira antahi ozami'ne. Na'ankure miko vahera Agra zamantahino zamage'ne.
But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all about people.
25 Na'ankure, Agra antahiantahi zankura upara osu'neankino magomo'a hugesa osugahie. Na'ankure Agra vahe'mofo agu'afina na'a me'neo, ko antahino keno hu'ne.
He didn't need anyone to tell him about human nature for he knew the way people think.
