Johani 6
1 Hazimana inzi zintu, Jesu chayenda kuyimwi imbali ye wate lya Galileya, hape livali kusupiwa I wate lya Tiberiya.
After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias).
2 Vungi vwe chichava chivali kumwi chilire kakuli vava voni imakazo zavali kupanga kwavo vavali kulwala.
A large crowd followed Him because they saw the signs He was performing on the sick.
3 Jesu cha yenda kwirundu mi uko abake kali hasi ni varutwana vakwe.
Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.
4 (Hanu mukiti we Paseka, Mukiti wa Majunda, uvali kwina hafuhi.)
Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near.
5 Linu Jesu halola mwi wulu ni kuvona vantu vangi niva keza kwakwe, cha wambira Filipi, “Tuwola kuwula kuhi vuronto ili kuli ava vantu va wole kulya?”
When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”
6 (Kono Jesu a vawambi ichi kulika Filipi, kakuli iye mwine ivali kwizi icho chavali kuswanera kupanga.)
But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.
7 Filipi cha mwi tava, “Miyanda yovere yamashereñi ovuroto kasa a wole kuwulira zumwi ni zumwi wavo nangati kakwa kanini.”
Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”
8 Zumwi wa valutwana vakwe, Adiriyasi, mukulwe wa Simoni Pita, chata kwa Jesu,
One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,
9 “Kwina muhwire wo muswisu hanu wina zikwa zeminwe ye yanza zo Vuroto ni nswi zo vere, kono chinzi ichi mukati ketu?”
“Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?”
10 Jesu chati, “Mwikalike vantu hansi.”( Hanu kuvena lyani liñgi mwe china chivaka, ) Cwale vakwame chive kala hansi, valikana lule na lule lwe minwe yeyanza ku mpalo.
“Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.
11 Linu Jesu chahinda vuloto mi hamana kuha vuitumero, cha tambika kwavo vavali kwi kere, mi kuswana nikwi inswi, chovungi sina muvavali kusakira.
Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted.
12 Linu vantu havave kuti, cha wamba kuva lutwana vakwe, “Mukunganye vu fwafwali ni twa ngamoka twa shala, iri kuli kanji kuwaniki chi zova.”
And when everyone was full, He said to His disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over, so that nothing will be wasted.”
13 Chale chiva tu kunganya ni kwizuza zitanda ze kumi ni tovere tufwafwali tuva zwi ha vuronto bwina palo ye minwe ye yanza ye; tu fwafwali tuva shali kwavo vavali.
So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.
14 Linu, vantu hava vona ichi chisupo chava pangi, chiva wamba, “Uzu chovu niti muporofita yo swanera kukeza mwi nkanda.”
When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”
15 Chale Jesu ha lemuha kuti chivavali kusaka kukeza ni kumukwata che nkani kuti vamupange mulena, cha zwengera yenke kuma Lundu.
Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.
16 Hachiyiza kuva chitengu, va lutwana vakwe chiva shetumukera kwi wate.
When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 Chive chira muchikepe, mi vavali kuluta i wate kuya kwa Capenaume. Chikuvali kusiha cheyi nako, mi Jesu kena aveni kuka vola kale kuvali.
got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.
18 Imi i huho likolete livali kuhunga, mi iwate chili vali kutangite kulwa.
A strong wind was blowing, and the sea grew agitated.
19 Hachi va zuhite chiuvaka chilikana makumi overe ni minwe ye yaza lyoke kamba makumi o tatwe muvule, chiva vona Jesu nakaya vuyenda he wulu lya wate ni kezite kumbali ni chikepe, mi vavali kutiyite.
When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea—and they were terrified.
20 Kono chati kuvali, “Njeme! Kanji mutiyi.”
But Jesus spoke up: “It is I; do not be afraid.”
21 Linu vavali kukusaka kumu longa muchi sepe, mi yahaho chisepe chicha kasika he rizo havavali kukaya.
Then they were willing to take Him into the boat, and at once the boat reached the shore where they were heading.
22 Izuva lichilira, chinavungi chivali kuzimene kwishirya lye wate chiva vona kuti kena kuvena chimwi chikepe mbwita fera china choke, ni kuti Jesu kena ave chili mwateni ni varutwana vakwe kono kuti varutwana vakwe chivavali kuyendete vovona.
The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.
23 Niha kuva vulyo, kuvena amwi mato avali kukazwa kwa Tiberiasi hafuhi ni chivaka aho hava liri vuroto uvo Simwine hava litumeri.
However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24 Linu china vungi hachi lemuha kuti nangati Jesu kamba varutwana vakwe kena vavali kusikwina, cwale avo vene chiva chira mumato ni kuyenda kwa Capenaume kuka ngana Jesu.
So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Him.
25 Hachiva manite kumuwana kweyina imwi imbali ye wate, chiva cho kwali, “Rabbi, wakeza liri kunu?”
When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they asked Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”
26 Jesu chave tava, ni kucho, “cho vuniti, niti, muni ngana, isiñi kuti muvavoni imakazo, kono ivaka lyokuti muvali vuroto vumwi bwe nkonko mi muve kuti.
Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill.
27 Kanji muverekeri zilyo inzo zisinyeha, kono muverekere zilyo zikala inako kutwala kuvahalo vusa mani uvo Mwana o Muntu bwasa mihe, kwe Ireeza Isi ava viki iswayo hali.” (aiōnios g166)
Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval.” (aiōnios g166)
28 Cwale chivati kwali, “Chizi chi tuswanera ku panga, iri kuli tuwole kupanga misevezi ye Ireeza?”
Then they inquired, “What must we do to perform the works of God?”
29 Jesu che tava ni kuta kuvali, “Uwu njo musevezi we Ireeza: kuti mu zumine ku yenke unzo yavaka tumi.”
Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.”
30 Chwale chiva ta kwali, “Chechihi chisupo cwale choso pange, iri kuli tuvone ni kuku zumina? Chinzi choto pange?
So they asked Him, “What sign then will You perform, so that we may see it and believe You? What will You do?
31 Veshetu vavali maana mwi halaupa, sina hakuñoletwe,'Avavahi inkonko izwa kwi wuulu kulya.”
Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”
32 Linu Jesu chave tava, “Chovu niti, niti, kena ivali Mushe yava mihi inkonko kuzwa mwi wuulu, kono ivali Tayo yo miha inkonko ye niti izwa kwi wulu.
Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
33 Kakuti inkonko ye Ireeza je china chi zwa kwiwulu ni kukeza hansi ni kwiza kuha vuhalo kwi nkanda.”
For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”
34 Cwale chiva wamba kwali, “Nfumwetu, utuhe iyi inkonko inako yonse.”
“Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all times.”
35 Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Jeme ni nkonko yo vuhalo; uzo yo keza kwangu kasane ka fwe inzala, mi uzo yo zumina mwangu kesane kafwe inyota.
Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.
36 Kono ni vami wambiri chovu niti muvani voni, mi kamu zumini.
But as I stated, you have seen Me and still you do not believe.
37 Yense uzo Tayo waniha mwa keze kwangu, mi yense yo keza kwangu chovuniti kaseni muzindire hanze.
Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will never drive away.
38 Kakuti niva kezi hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, isiñi kwiza kupanga itato yangu, kono chasaka iye uzo yavaka ni tumi.
For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.
39 Imi iyi nji tanto yakwe uzo yava kanitumi, kuti kanji ni zoverwa nangati yenke kwavo vonse vavanihi, kono kaniva vunse mwizuva lyama mani mani.
And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.
40 Kakuli iyi nje tanto ya Tayo, kuti yense yo vona Mwana ni kuzumina mwali mwave ni vuhalo vusa mani mi kanimu vunse mwi zuva lya ma mani-mani. (aiōnios g166)
For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” (aiōnios g166)
41 Cwale majunda chivatanga kukumbola kuamana naye kakuti avati, “Njeme ni nkonko iyo yaka zwa kwi wulu.”
At this, the Jews began to grumble about Jesus because He had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
42 Chiva wamba, “Uzu kanjiyena Jesu mwana wa Josefa, uzo insi ni nyina tuve zi? Kwiza vule hape hanu kuti awambe, 'Nakazwa kwi wulu '?”
They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven?’”
43 Jesu che tava ni kuvata, “Musiye kukumbola mukati kenu.
“Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied.
44 Kakwina zumwi yo wola kukeza kwangu mbwita Tayo yava kanitumi hamu chuza, mi kani muvunse mwi zuva lyama mani-mani.
“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day.
45 Ku ñoletwe muma porofita, 'Yense karutiwe nji Ireeza. 'Yense yava zuwi ni kulituta kwa Tayo ukeza kwangu.
It is written in the Prophets: ‘And they will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has heard the Father and learned from Him comes to Me—
46 Kena kuti vonse vava voni Tayo, mbwita fera iye yokazwa kwe Ireeza- ava voni Tayo.
not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God; only He has seen the Father.
Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
48 Jeme ni nkonko yo vuhalo.
I am the bread of life.
49 Veshenu vavali maana mwi halaupa, mi vava mani kufwa.
Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.
50 Iyi nje nkonko ikeza hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, iri kuli muntu awole kulya yimwi kuili ni kusa fwa.
This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.
51 Jeme ni nkonko i hala iyo ikazwa kwi wulu. Haiva zumwi ulya kuili iyi nkonko, mwa hale kuya kuire. Inkonko iyo yete nihe inyama wangu kuvu halo vwe kanda.” (aiōn g165)
I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh.” (aiōn g165)
52 Majunda chiva venga mukati kavo vene niku tanga kukanana, nivati, Kuwoleka vule kuti uzu mukwame atuhe inyama wakwe kuti tulye?'
At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”
53 Cwale Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Chovu niti, niti, kwanda yo kuti mulye inyama o Mwana o Muntu ni kunwa malaha akwe, kete muve ni vuhalo mwenu.
So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.
54 Yense yolya inyama wangu ni kunwa malaha angu wina vuhalo vusa mani, mi kani muvuse mwizuvalya mamanikizo. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
55 Kakuti inyama yangu chilyo che niti, mi malaha angu chinwiwa che niti.
For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink.
56 Iye yo lya inyama wangu ni kunwa malaha angu ushala mwangu, ni me mwali.
Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him.
57 Sina Tayo yo hala havaka ni tumi, mi sina hani hala ivaka lya Tayo, cwale iye yonilya, mwahale naye ivaka lyangu.
Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me.
58 Iyi nje nkonko ina yakeza hansi kukazwa kwi wulu, isiñi uvu veshenu vavali ni kufwa. Iye yo lya iyi nkonko mwahale kuya kuire.” (aiōn g165)
This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your fathers, who ate the manna and died, the one who eats this bread will live forever.” (aiōn g165)
59 Kono Jesu avali kuwamba inzi zintu mwi sinangonge na kwete kuruta mwa Capenaume.
Jesus said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
60 Cwale vungi vwava rutwana vakwe vava zuwi izi chiva ti, “Iyi ituto ikavo ahulu; jeni yo wola kuitambula?”
On hearing it, many of His disciples said, “This is a difficult teaching. Who can accept it?”
61 Jesu, kakuli avali kwizi mwali kuti varutwana vakwe vavali kukumbola heyi dava, chati kuvali, “Kana ichi chimi nyeza?
Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?
62 Cwale mukuve vule aho hasane kamuvone Mwana o Mutu nakambama kuta uko kwavali kwina sapilio?
Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?
63 Luhuho luha vuhalo; inyama kakwina chi ivozekeza. Mazwi awo ani vawambi kwenu nga luhuho, mi go vuhalo.
The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.
64 Imi kwina vamwi kwenu avo vasa zumini.”Kakuti Jesu avali kwinzi kuzwa kuma tangiro kuti mbani avo vate ni vakangwe kuzumina mi njeni uzo yate na muveteke.
However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)
65 Cha wamba, “I vaka lyezi kuti na miwamba kwenu kuti kakwina zumwi yo wola kukeza kwangu mbwita haiva wa zumininwa kwa Tayo.”
Then Jesus said, “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless the Father has granted it to him.”
66 Kevaka lyezi, vungi bwa varutwana chiva vola kumusiya mi kena vavazwiri havusu ni kumwi chilira.
From that time on many of His disciples turned back and no longer walked with Him.
67 Linu Jesu cha wamba kuvana ikumi ni tovere, “Inwe nanwe kamusaki kuyenda nanwe, musaka?”
So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”
68 Simoni Pitorosi chamwi tava, “Simwine, njikwani kwete tuyende? Wina manzwi ovuhalo vusa mani, (aiōnios g166)
Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
69 mi tuva zumini ni kwiza kwiziva kuti jewe yo Chena yenke we Ireeza.”
We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”
70 Jesu cha wamba kuvali, “Kena kuti ni vamiketi, vena ikumi ni minwe yovere, imi zumwi kwenu ji diavulusi?”
Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”
71 Hanu avali kuwamba kuama ni Judasi mwana wa Simoni Isikariyoti, kakuti ivali iye, omumwina kuvena ikumi ni tovere, kakuti ivali njiyena, uzo yatane veteke Jesu.
He was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus.
