< Joni 2 >

1 Hagi tare knamofo amefi knazupa, arave hunaku Kana kumate Galili kaziga nehazageno, Jisasi nerera'a anante mani'ne.
Two days later there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,
2 Ana hige'za Jisasine Agri amagenentaza disaipol naga'anena, aravema huku'ma hazarega zamagi hazage'za vu'naze.
and Jesus also was invited and His disciples.
3 Wainima vagaregeno'a, Jisasi nerera'a asmino, waini tina hagovagare'ne huno Agrira asmi'ne.
Now the wine ran short; whereupon the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no 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.
"Leave the matter in my hands," He replied; "the time for me to act has not yet come."
5 Jisasina nerera'a eri'za vaheku anage huno zamasmi'ne, Agrama inankna kema tamagri'ma tamasminia'zana hiho.
His mother said to the attendants, "Whatever he tells you to do, do it."
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.
Now there were six stone jars standing there (in accordance with the Jewish regulations for purification), each large enough to hold twenty gallons or more.
7 Jisasi'a eri'za vahe huzmanteno Ana kavo zagafi ti ome afi viteho hige'za tina ome afi vite'naze.
Jesus said to the attendants, "Fill the jars with water." And they filled them to the brim.
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 said, "Now, take some out, and carry it to the President of the feast."
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,
So they carried some to him. And no sooner had the President tasted the water now turned into wine, than--not knowing where it came from, though the attendants who had drawn the water knew--he called to the bridegroom
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!
and said to him, "It is usual to put on the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then that which is inferior. But you have kept the good wine till now."
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, the first of His miracles, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee, and thus displayed His glorious power; and His disciples believed 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.
Afterwards He went down to Capernaum--He, and His mother, and His brothers, and His disciples; and they made a short stay there.
13 Hagi Jiu vahe'ma kinafinti zamare'nea (Pasova) ne'za'ne knamo kofta higeno Jisasi'a Jerusalemi kumate mareri'ne.
But the Jewish Passover was approaching, and for this Jesus went up 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.
And He found in the Temple the dealers in cattle and sheep and in pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.
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.
So He plaited a whip of rushes, and drove all--both sheep and bullocks--out of the Temple. The small coin of the brokers He upset on the ground and overturned their tables.
16 Hagi maho namama maketima nehaza vaheku, Ama nama avreta viho. Nafa'nimofo nona maketi kumara eri tro osiho, huno zamasmi'ne.
And to the pigeon-dealers He said, "Take these things away. Do not 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)
This recalled to His disciples the words of Scripture, "My zeal for Thy House will consume me."
18 Jiu vahe'mo'za Agriku anage hu'naze, Kagra inankna avame'za tagrira huraverisanketa negeta ama nera mrerisa nere huta hugahune?
So the Jews asked Him, "What proof of your authority do you exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?"
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,
"Demolish this Sanctuary," said Jesus, "and in three days I will rebuild it."
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 has taken forty-six years," replied the Jews, "to build this Sanctuary, and will you rebuild it in three days?"
21 Hianagi ra mono nonku'ma kema hu'neana, Agra avufagu hunteno hu'ne.
But He was speaking of the Sanctuary of 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.
When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples recollected that He had said this; and they believed the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.
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.
Now when He was in Jerusalem, at the Festival of the Passover, many became believers in Him through watching the miracles He performed.
24 Hu'nazanagi, Jisasi'a Agra kazigatira antahi ozami'ne. Na'ankure miko vahera Agra zamantahino zamage'ne.
But for His part, Jesus did not trust Himself to them, because He knew them all,
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.
and did not need any one's testimony concerning a man, for He of Himself knew what was in the man.
