< Yohana 20 >
1 Manyata ligono lya kuanza lya juma lubhuliku Mariamu Magdalena ahidili kulikaburi akalibhona liganga lele libhosibhu pa likaburi.
Alfajiri na mapema Jumapili, kukiwa bado na giza, Maria Magdalene alikwenda kaburini, akaliona lile jiwe limeondolewa mlangoni pa kaburi.
2 Kwa iyo akajumba mbio kulota kwa Simoni Petro ni kwa jhola mwanafunzi jhongi ambajhe Yesu an'ganili, kisha akabhajobhela, “bhan'tolili Bwana mu likaburi, natu tumanyilepi kwa bhambekili.”
Basi, akaenda mbio hadi kwa Petro na yule mwanafunzi mwingine ambaye Yesu alimpenda, akawaambia, “Wamemwondoa Bwana kaburini, na wala hatujui walikomweka.”
3 Kisha Petro ni jhola mwanafunzi jhongi bhakabhoka, kulotela kulikaburi.
Petro pamoja na yule mwanafunzi mwingine wakaenda kaburini.
4 Bhoha bhakajha bhijumba kwa pamonga; mwanafunzi jhongi jhola ajumbili nesu kuliko Petro ni kubhwayi kufika kulikaburi.
Wote wawili walikimbia lakini yule mwanafunzi mwingine alikimbia mbio zaidi kuliko Petro, akatangulia kufika kaburini.
5 Akajhema na kisha kuhongolela mu likaburi; akajhibhona sanda jhela jha kitani jhigonili, lakini ajhingilepi mugati.
Alipoinama na kuchungulia ndani, aliona sanda, lakini hakuingia ndani.
6 Kisha Simoni Petro ni muene akahida akajhingila mugati mu likaburi. Akajhibhona sanda jha kitani jhela jhigonili pala
Simoni Petro naye akaja akimfuata, akaingia kaburini; humo akaona sanda,
7 ni leso jhela jhajhele pamuto pa muene jhajhelepi pamonga ni sanda jha kitani bali jhajhele jhigonili pa lubhafu.
na kile kitambaa alichofungwa Yesu kichwani. Hicho kitambaa hakikuwekwa pamoja na hiyo sanda, bali kilikuwa kimekunjwa na kuwekwa mahali peke yake.
8 Ndipo mwanafunzi jhongi jhola ni muene akajhingila mu likaburi; akalola ni kukiera.
Kisha yule mwanafunzi mwingine aliyemtangulia kufika kaburini, akaingia pia ndani, akaona, akaaamini.
9 Kwa kujha hadi wakati obhu bhajhele bhaghamanyilepi maandiku kwamba ilimlazimu Yesu afufukayi kabhele katika bhafu.
(Walikuwa bado hawajaelewa Maandiko Matakatifu yaliyosema kwamba ilikuwa lazima afufuke kutoka wafu).
10 Kisha bhanafunzi bhakalota kabhele kunyumba jha bhene.
Basi, hao wanafunzi wakarudi nyumbani.
11 Hata nahu, Mariamu ajhele ajhemili pa likaburi ilela, bho ijhendelela kulela akajhema kisha akalanga mulikaburi.
Maria alikuwa amesimama nje ya kaburi, akilia. Huku akiwa bado analia, aliinama na kuchungulia kaburini,
12 Akabhabhona malaika bhabhele bhenye sura sibhalafu bhatamili mmonga kumutu ni jhongi kumagolo mahali ambapo Yesu agonili.
akawaona malaika wawili waliovaa mavazi meupe, wameketi pale mwili wa Yesu ulipokuwa umelazwa, mmoja kichwani na wa pili miguuni.
13 Na bhene bhakan'jobhela, “N'dala, kwandabha jha kiki ghwilela?” Ni muene akabhajobhela, “Kwa ndabha bhan'tolili Bwana ghuangu, nani nimanyilepi kwa bhamp'ekili.”
Hao malaika wakamwuliza, “Mama, kwa nini unalia?” Naye akawaambia, “Wamemwondoa Bwana wangu, na wala sijui walikomweka!”
14 Bho amalikujobha aghu, ageuiki ni kumbona Yesu akajha ajhemili. Lakini amanyilepi kujobha ojhu ajhele Yesu.
Baada ya kusema hayo, aligeuka nyuma, akamwona Yesu amesimama hapo, lakini asitambue ya kuwa ni Yesu.
15 Ni muene Yesu akan'jobhela, “Mabhu, kwa ndabha jha kiki wilela? Ukandonda niani?” Ni muene khuni akajha amanyili kujha ndo mtunza bustani akan'jobhela, “Bwana, kama ndo bhebhe un'tolili, nijobhelayi kwa umb'ekili, ni nene nibetakun'tola.”
Yesu akamwuliza, “Mama, kwa nini unalia? Unamtafuta nani?” Maria, akidhani kwamba huyo ni mtunza bustani, akamwambia, “Mheshimiwa, kama ni wewe umemwondoa, niambie ulikomweka, nami nitamchukua.”
16 Yesu akan'jobhela, “Mariamu.” Ni muene akageuka muene ni kun'jobhela kwa Kiaramu, “Raboni,” yaani sawa nikujobha, “Mwalimu.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Maria!” Naye Maria akageuka, akamwambia kwa Kiebrania, “Raboni” (yaani “Mwalimu”).
17 Yesu akan'jobhela, “Usinigusi, kwani bado nakona kupaa kulota kwa dadi; bali ulotayi kwa bhalongobhangu ukabhajobhelayi kujha nibetakupaa kulota kwa Ddadi jhangu ambajhe pia ndo Dadi jhinu, K'yara ghwa nene na K'yara ghwa muenga.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Usinishike; sijakwenda bado juu kwa Baba. Lakini nenda kwa ndugu zangu uwaambie: nakwenda juu kwa Baba yangu na Baba yenu, Mungu wangu na Mungu wenu.”
18 Mariamu Magdalena akahida kubhajobhela bhanafunzi, “Nimbwene Bwana,” na kwamba an'jobhili mambo agha.
Hivyo Maria Magdalene akaenda akawapa habari wale wanafunzi kuwa amemwona Bwana, na kwamba alikuwa amemwambia hivyo.
19 Na bho jhifikili kimihi, ligono elu, ligono lya kuanza lya juma, ni milyangu jhikajha jhidendibhu mahali ambapo bhanafunzi bhajhele kwa kuhofela Bhayahudi, Yesu akahida ni kujhema katikati jha bhene ni kubhajobhela, “Amani ijhelayi kwa muenga.”
Ilikuwa jioni ya siku hiyo ya Jumapili. Wanafunzi walikuwa wamekutana pamoja ndani ya nyumba, na milango ilikuwa imefungwa kwa sababu waliwaogopa viongozi wa Wayahudi. Basi, Yesu akaja, akasimama kati yao, akawaambia, “Amani kwenu!”
20 Bho amalikujobha aghu akabhalasya mabhokho gha muene ni lubhafu kwa muene. Na bhene bhanafunzi bho bhambwene Bwana bhahobhelili.
Alipokwisha sema hayo, akawaonyesha mikono yake na ubavu wake. Basi, hao wanafunzi wakafurahi mno kumwona Bwana.
21 Kisha Yesu akabhajobhela kabhele, “Amani ijhelayi namu. Kama vile Dadi kyaanilaghisi nene, fefuefu nani nikabhatuma muenga.”
Yesu akawaambia tena, “Amani kwenu! Kama vile Baba alivyonituma mimi, nami nawatuma ninyi.”
22 Yesu bho amalili kujobha aghu akabhavuvila akabhajobhela, Mupokelayi Roho Mtakatifu.
Alipokwisha sema hayo, akawapulizia na kuwaambia, “Pokeeni Roho Mtakatifu.
23 Jhejhioha jha mwibetakun'samehe dhambi, bhasamehibhu; ni bhala bha mwibetakubhafungila bhafungibhu.”
Mkiwasamehe watu dhambi zao, wamesamehewa; msipowaondolea, hawasamehewi.”
24 Thomaso, mmonga wa bhala kumi ni bhabhele, jhaakutibhu Dididmas, ajhelepi ni bhanafunzi bhajhinu Yesu bho ahiodili.
Thoma mmoja wa wale kumi na wawili (aitwaye Pacha), hakuwa pamoja nao wakati Yesu alipokuja.
25 Bhanafunzi bhangi bhala bhakan'jobhela baadajhe, “Tumbwene Bwana.” N i muene akabhajobhela, “Kama nibetalepi kubhona alama sya misumari mu mabhoko gha muene, ni kubheka fikonji fya nene mu alama e'su, na pia kubheka kubhoko kyangu mu lubhafu kwa muene nibetalepi kukiera.”
Basi, wale wanafunzi wengine wakamwambia, “Tumemwona Bwana.” Thoma akawaambia, “Nisipoona mikononi mwake alama za misumari, na kutia kidole changu katika kovu hizo, na kutia mkono wangu ubavuni mwake, sitasadiki.”
26 Baada jha magono nane bhanafunzi bhajhele kabhele mu kichumba, ni Thomaso ajhele pamonga nabhu. Wakati miliangu idendibhu Yesu ajhemili katikati jha bhene na akajobha, “Amani na ijhelayi kwa muenga.”
Basi, baada ya siku nane hao wanafunzi walikuwa tena pamoja mle ndani, na Thoma alikuwa pamoja nao. Milango ilikuwa imefungwa, lakini Yesu akaja, akasimama kati yao, akasema, “Amani kwenu!”
27 Kisha akan'jobhela Thomaso, letayi kikonyi kya jhobhi na ulotayi mabhoko ghangu; letayi apa mabhoko gha jhobhi na ubhekayi mu lubhafu lwa nene; wala usijhi jhaibetakukiera bali jhaikiera.”
Kisha akamwambia Thoma, “Lete kidole chako hapa uitazame mikono yangu; lete mkono wako ukautie ubavuni mwangu. Usiwe na mashaka, ila amini!”
28 Ni muene Thomaso akajibu ni kun'jobhela, “Bwana ghuangu ni K'yara ghuangu.”
Thoma akamjibu, “Bwana wangu na Mungu wangu!”
29 Yesu akan'jobhela, Kwa kujha unibhwene, ukieriri. Bhabarikibhu bhene bhabhikier, bila kubhona.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Je, unaamini kwa kuwa umeniona? Heri yao wale ambao hawajaona, lakini wameamini.”
30 Kisha Yesu abhombi ishara simehele mbele jha bhanafunzi, ambasyo sibhwajhilepi kulembibhwa mu kitabu ekhe;
Yesu alifanya mbele ya wanafunzi wake ishara nyingine nyingi ambazo hazikuandikwa katika kitabu hiki.
31 bali e'se silembibhu ili kwamba mubhwesyayi kukiera kwamba Yesu ndo Kristu, mwana ghwa K'yara, na kwamba pamwikiera mujhiajhi ni uzima mu lihina lya muene.
Lakini hizi zimeandikwa ili mpate kuamini kwamba Yesu ni Kristo, Mwana wa Mungu; na kwa kuamini mpate kuwa na uzima kwa nguvu ya jina lake.
