Johani 4
1 Linu aho Jesu heziva kuti Mafarisi vava zuwi kuti avali kupanga ni kukoloveza valutiwa vangi kuhita Johani
Now when the Lord learned that the Pharisees heard he was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 (nangati kuti Jesu iye mwine kena avali kukoloveza, kono ivali valutiwa vakwate),
(although it was not Jesus himself who baptized them, but his disciples),
3 chazwa mwa Judeya ni kuvola hape kwa Galileya.
he left Judea and went away to Galilee.
4 Kono ivali iswanero kwali ku hita mwa Samariya.
But he had to pass through Samaria.
5 Cwale cha keza mwi toropo ya Samariya, i sumpwa Sychari, hembali ni chivaka chevu icho Jakovo ava here kumwane Josefa.
So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
6 Chisima cha Jakovo puchivena aho. Jesu avali kukatere kuzwa ku musipiri wakwe ni kwiza ha chisima. Chi ivali kuchutire kwinako ye chitengu zana.
Jacob's well was there, so Jesus, wearied as he was from the journey, sat by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 Mukulwakazi wa Musamariya ava kezi kuku teka menzi, mi Jesu cha wamba kwali, “Nihe ku menzi ni nywe.”
When a woman from Samaria came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give me some water to drink.”
8 Kakuti valutwana vakwe vavali kuyendente mukati ke toropo kuku wula zilyo.
(For his disciples had gone into the city to buy food.)
9 Yaho mukulwakazi wa Musamariya chata kwali, “Kuwoleka vule kuti iwe, kuva Mujunda, ukumbira ime, kuva mukulwakazi wa Musamariya, kuchimwi cho kunywa?” Kakuli Majunda kavana cho kupanga ni Masamariya.
So the Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that yoʋ, a Jew, ask for water to drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Jesu che tava ni kumuta, “Kambe we ziva impo ya Ireeza, mi jeni uzu yo wamba kwako, 'Unihe cho kunwa; ni wa wola kumu kumbira, mi na wola kukuha, menzi a hala.”
Jesus answered her, “If yoʋ knew the gift of God and who it is that is saying to yoʋ, ‘Give me some water to drink,’ yoʋ would have asked him, and he would have given yoʋ living water.”
11 Mukulwakazi chata kwali, “Mukwame, kawina chitekiso imi isima litungite. Ena kuhi cwale kowina menzi a hala?
The woman said to him, “Sir, yoʋ do not even have a bucket to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then can yoʋ get this living water?
12 Kena umu kando, iwe, kuhita ishetu Jakovo, uzo ava tuhi chisima ni kunya mwateni iye mwine, nivane vulyo ni ñombe zavo?
Are yoʋ greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and livestock?”
13 Jesu che tava ni kumu ta, “Yense yo nwa kwaya menzi mwa fwe inyota hape,
Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks this water will thirst again,
15 Mukulwakazi chati kwali, “Mukwame, unihe aya menzi iri kuli nisiye ni kufwanga inyonta mi nisiye niku kezanga kunu kuku teka menzi.”
The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty again and have to come here to draw water.”
16 Jesu chata kwali, “Yende, kasupe mwihyenu, mi ukavole kunu.”
Jesus said to her, “Go call yoʋr husband and come back here.”
17 Mukulwakazi chetava ni kumuti, “Kanina mukwame.”Jesu chetava, “Wina hande mukuwamba,”Kanina mwihyetu;
The woman said in response, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “Yoʋ have rightly said, ‘I have no husband,’
18 kakuti uva vire ni vakwame vakuma ha minwe ye yanza, mi nozu yo wina naye hanu kanji mwihyenu. Chiwa wamba che niti.”
for yoʋ have had five husbands, and the man yoʋ now have is not yoʋr husband; what yoʋ have said is true.”
19 Mukulwakazi cha wamba kwali, “Mukwame, Ni vona kuti umu porofita.
The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that yoʋ are a prophet.
20 Veshetu vavali kulaperera heli irundu, kono inwe muwamba kuti Jerusalema je chivaka uko vantu vaswanera ku laperela.”
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21 Jesu chata kwali, “Uni zumine, mwanakazi, kuti i hola i kezite aho kamulapere Tayo kamba heli rundu kamba mwa Jerusalema.
Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, an hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 Inwe mulapera icho chimusezi. I swe tulapera chi twizi, kakuti ipuluso i zwirira kuMajuda.
You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation is from the Jews.
23 Niha kuva vulyo, I hola ikezite, imi ina hanu, aho valaperi ve niti kava lapere Tayo muluhuho ni mwi niti, kakuli Tayo u kwete kulola vantu vaswana vulyo kuva valaperi vakwe.
But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such people to worship him.
24 Ireeza luhuho, mi vantu vamulapera vaswanera kumu lapera muluhuho ni mwi niti.”
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 Mukulwakazi chati kwali, “Ni izi kuti Mesiya ukezite (uzo usupiwa Keresite). A ho hasana kakeze, keze a tutoloke zintu zonse kwetu.”
The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
26 Jesu chamuta, “Jeme uzu, yo kwete kuwamba kwako.”
Jesus said to her, “I who speak to yoʋ am he.”
27 Heyo inako valutwana vakwe chivaka vola. Hanu vavali ku komoketwe chinzi havali kuwamba ni mwanakazi, kono kakwina ava wambi, “Usaka nzi?”kamba “Chinzi hau wamba naye?”
Just then his disciples came back, and they were amazed that he was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, “What do yoʋ want?” or, “Why are yoʋ speaking with her?”
28 Cwale mukulwakazi chasiya i hemere lyakwe, ni kuvola mwi toropo, ni kuwamba kuvantu,
Then the woman left her water jar, went into the town, and said to the people,
29 “Mwize, muvone mukwame wani wambira zintu zonse ziniva pangi. Uzu uswanera kuva iye Keresite, iwola kuva?”
“Come see a man who told me everything I have ever done. Could this be the Christ?”
30 Chiva siya itoporopo ni kukeza kwali.
So they left the town and began coming to him.
31 Mwinako zana, varutwana vavali kumukumbira, nivati, “Rabbi, Lye.”
In the meantime the disciples were urging him, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 Kono cha wamba kuvali, “Nina zilyo zo kulya inzo zimusezi chazo.”
But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
33 Cwale varutwana chiva wambolisana kuvali vene, “Kakwina zumwi wa muletera zokulya, vamu letera?”
So the disciples said to one another, “Could someone have brought him something to eat?”
34 Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Zilyo zangu ku panga itato yakwe uzo yava kani tumi ni kumana musevezi wa kwe.
Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work.
35 Kamu wambi kuti, 'Kwina myezi imwi yone mi ikutulo jese ikeze'? Ni wamba kwenu, mulole kwi wulu ni kuvone mawa, kakuli chi alitukiseze kusizwa!
Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and see that the fields are already ripe for harvest.
36 Uzo yo kwete kusiza u tambula i tuwero ni kukunganya misero yo vuhalo vusa mani, iri kuti uzo yo vyala nozo yo sinza va sangwe hamwina. (aiōnios g166)
He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Mowu muwambiro, 'Yenke ubyala, mi zumwi usinza; vuniti.
For in this the true saying is verified: ‘One sows and another reaps.’
38 Ni va mitumi kuku sinza inzo zisina muva severezi. Vamwi vava sevezi, mi muvengiri mumi sevezi yavo.”
I sent you to reap what you have not labored for; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 Vungi bwa Masamariya mowuna muleneñi chiva zumina kwali vakeñi che vaka lyue ñusa lyo mukulwakazi lya paka, “Wani wambira zintu zonse izo zini vapangi.”
Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman's testimony: “He told me everything I have ever done.”
40 Cwale Masamariya hava keza kwali, chiva muvuza kwikala navo, mi ave kali kwateni mazuva overe.
So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there for two days.
41 Mi vungi vomwi vuva zumini chevaka lya manzwi akwe.
And many more believed because of his word.
42 Chiva wamba ku mwanakazi, “Katusizumini chevaka lyezo ziwawamba, kakuti iswe tuvene chitwa muzuwa, mi twizi kuti uzu luli chovuniti jo muhazi we kanda.”
So they said to the woman, “It is no longer because of yoʋr report that we believe, for we ourselves have heard, and we know that this is truly the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
43 Hakumana awo mazuva o vere, Chazwa kwatenio ni kuya kwa Ngalileya.
After two days, he departed from there and went to Galilee.
44 Kakuli Jesu iye mwina ava wambi kuti muporofita mwi kanda yakwe kakutekiwa.
(For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.)
45 Hacha keza mwa Galileya, Mangalileya chi vamu tambula. Vava voni zintu zonse zava pangi mwa Jerusalema ha mukiti, kakuti navo vavali kuyendete kwateni.
When he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him because they had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also had gone to the feast.
46 Hanu chakeza hape mwa Kana mwa Ngalileya, umo mwava sanduli menzi i waine. Kuvena zumwi induna ili uzo mwane we chiswisu mwa Capenaume yavali kulwala.
Once more Jesus went to Cana of Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. Now there was a certain royal official whose son was sick in Capernaum.
47 Aho heza kuzuwa kuti Jesu ava kezi kukazwa kwa Judeya kwiza kwa Galileya, Cha yenda kwa Jesu ni kuka mukumbira kuti akeze ni kuhoza mwane we chiswisu, ya chavali kwina hafuhi ni kutokwala.
When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for his son was about to die.
48 Jesu cwale cha wamba kwali, “Mbwita chi mwavona isupo ni makazo, kate muzumine.”
Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will certainly not believe.”
49 Induna chati kwali, “Mukwame, wize kunu mwanangu naseni kufwa.”
The royal official said to him, “Sir, come down before my boy dies.”
50 Jesu chawamba kwali, “Yende. Mwanako we chiswisu uhala.”Mukwame ava zumini manzwi awo Jesu ava wambi kwali, mi chayenda kuzwa hateni.
Jesus said to him, “Go; yoʋr son will live.” And the man believed what Jesus said to him and went on his way.
51 Havali kushetumuka, muhikana wakwe chamu katana, nawamba kuti mwanakwe we chiswisu avali kuhala.
As he was going back down to his house, his servants met him and told him, “Yoʋr son is alive.”
52 Cwale chava vunza inako hatangira kuli zuwa hande. Chiva mwitava, Inzona mwinako ya musihali i fivere chiya musiya.”
So he asked them the hour when he began to get better. They said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”
53 Cwale vensi chiva lemuha kuti ivali jiyona inako ina Jesu yava wambi kwali, “Mwanako we chiswisu uhala.”Cwale iye mwine niver zuvo yakwe yonse chiva zumina.
Then the father realized that this was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Yoʋr son will live.” So he believed, along with his entire household.
54 Iyi ivali ivali je makazo yo vuveri yava pangi Jesu hakazwa kwa Judeya kuya kwa Ngalileya.
This was the second sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
