Jāņa Evaņg̒elijs 4
1 Un kad Tas Kungs nomanīja, ka tie farizeji bija dzirdējuši, ka Jēzus vairāk mācekļu dabūjot un vairāk kristījot nekā Jānis,
[At that time, many people were asking] Jesus to baptize them. He did not baptize people; it was [we] his disciples who were doing the baptizing. But when some of the Pharisee [religious group] heard [people say that] Jesus was making more disciples than John [the Baptizer] and was baptizing them, [they became very jealous].
2 (Jebšu Jēzus pats nekristīja, bet Viņa mācekļi, )
3 Tad Viņš atstāja Jūdeju un atkal nogāja uz Galileju.
When the Lord [Jesus] heard about that, [so that the Pharisees would not cause trouble for him], he left Judea [district], and went again [with us disciples] to Galilee district.
4 Un Viņam bija jāiet caur Samariju.
[He] knew that God wanted him to travel through Samaria [district].
5 Tad Viņš nonāk vienā Samarijas pilsētā, ko sauc Sīharu, tuvu pie tā tīruma, ko Jēkabs deva savam dēlam Jāzepam.
So we arrived at a town named Sychar in Samaria [district]. That was near the plot of ground that [our ancestor] Jacob had given to his son Joseph [long ago].
6 Un tur bija Jēkaba aka. Kad nu Jēzus, no ceļa piekusis, pie tās akas apsēdās, - un tas bija ap sesto stundu, -
The well that [used to] belong to Jacob was on that plot of ground. Jesus was tired from walking. So while [we] disciples went into the town to buy some food, he sat down alongside the well. It was about noontime. A woman who [lived there] in Samaria came to get some water [from the well]. Jesus said to her, “Will you give me [from the well] some water [to drink]?” The [woman knew that] Jews did not like ([to touch things that belong to] Samaritans/[to] come near Samaritans), (OR, Jews did not like to associate with Samaritans, )
7 Tad viena sieva no Samarijas nāk ārā, ūdeni smelt. Uz to Jēzus saka: “Dodi Man dzert.”
8 (Jo viņa mācekļi bija nogājuši pilsētā, maizi pirkt.)
9 Tad tā Samariešu sieva uz Viņu saka: “Kā Tu, Jūds būdams, prasi dzert no manis, vienas Samariešu sievas?” Jo Jūdi netur nekādu draudzību ar Samariešiem.
so the woman said to him, “You are a Jew, and I am from Samaria. Furthermore, I am a woman. So ([I am surprised] that you are asking me for a drink [of water]!/how is it that you are asking me for a drink [of water]?) [RHQ]”
10 Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Ja tu to Dieva dāvanu zinātu un kas Tas tāds ir, kas uz tevi saka: dod Man dzert; tad tu Viņu būtu lūgusi, un Viņš tev būtu devis dzīvu ūdeni.”
Jesus replied to her, “If you [(sg)] knew what God [wanted to] give you, and if you knew who I am, the one who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked me, and I would have given you water that gives life.”
11 Tā sieva uz Viņu saka: “Kungs, Tev nav smeļama trauka, un tā aka ir dziļa, - no kurienes tad Tev ir tas dzīvais ūdens?
She [thought he was talking about] ordinary [water. So she] said to him, “Sir, you do not have a bucket [or a rope with which to get water from the well], and the well is deep. So [since you cannot get water from this well], where can you get that life-giving water?
12 Vai Tu esi lielāks nekā mūsu tēvs Jēkabs, kas mums šo aku devis un pats no tās dzēris un viņa dēli un viņa lopi?”
Our ancestor Jacob left us this well. He drank water from it, and there was [enough good water] so that his sons and his flocks [of sheep] and goats drank from it also. [Do you claim that] you are greater than Jacob, [and because of that you can give us life-giving water]?”
13 Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Ikvienam, kas dzer no šī ūdens, atkal slāpst.
Jesus replied to her, “Everyone who drinks water from this [well] will later become thirsty again.
15 Tā sieva uz Viņu saka: “Kungs, dod man to - tādu ūdeni, ka man neslāpst un man vairs nav jānāk šurpu smelt.”
The woman [did not understand that Jesus was speaking figuratively about something that would sustain her spiritually. So she] said to him, “Sir, give me that kind of water so that I will not get thirsty again, and so that I will not have to keep returning here to get water!”
16 Jēzus uz to saka: “Ej, sauc savu vīru un nāc šurp.”
[Jesus knew that she did not understand, but he wanted to show her by his God-given knowledge of her personal life that because he was the Messiah he could supply her spiritual need. So] he said to her, “Woman, go and call your husband, and bring him here!”
17 Tā sieva atbildēja un sacīja: “Man vīra nav.” Jēzus uz to saka: “Tu pareizi esi sacījusi: man vīra nav.
She replied, “I do not have a husband!” Jesus said to her, “You said that you do not have a husband, and that is true.
18 Jo pieci vīri tev bijuši, un kas tev tagad ir, tas nav tavs vīrs; to tu pēc taisnības esi sacījusi.”
It is also true that you have had five husbands [one by one]. And the man you are living with now is not your husband! What you have said is very true.”
19 Tā sieva uz Viņu saka: “Kungs, es redzu, ka Tu esi pravietis.
The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you must be a prophet [because you are] able [to know people’s secrets].
20 Mūsu tēvi ir pielūguši šinī kalnā, un jūs sakāt, Jeruzālemē to vietu esam, kur pienākas pielūgt.”
But [let me ask you a different question]: Our ancestors worshipped God here on [Gerizim Mountain], but you [Jews] say that Jerusalem is the place where we must worship [God. So who is right]?”
21 Jēzus uz to saka: “Sieva, tici Man, tā stunda nāk, ka jūs nedz šai kalnā, nedz Jeruzālemē To Tēvu pielūgsiet.
Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me [when I say that] there will be a time when it will not [matter whether] you worship [God our] Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem [or somewhere else].
22 Jūs pielūdzat, ko jūs nezināt, mēs pielūdzam, ko mēs zinām; jo pestīšana ir no tiem Jūdiem.
You [people from Samaria] do not know the one you are worshipping. But we [(exc) Jews] know whom we worship, because it is from [us] Jews that [God has sent the one who] will save people [from the guilt of their sins].
23 Bet tā stunda nāk un jau tagad ir, ka tie īstenie pielūdzēji To Tēvu pielūgs garā un patiesībā; jo Tas Tēvs tādus arī meklē, kas To tā pielūdz.
However, there will be a time when those who genuinely worship God will worship him as [God’s] Spirit [directs] and according to [God’s] truth. In fact, that time is now. Those are the kind of worshipers my Father seeks.
24 Dievs ir Gars, un kas To pielūdz, tiem To būs pielūgt garā un patiesībā.”
God is a spiritual being. So it is necessary that those who worship him must worship him as his Spirit [directs] and [according to God’s] truth.”
25 Tā sieva uz Viņu saka: “Es zinu, ka tas Mesija nāk, kas saukts Kristus; kad Tas nāks, Tas mums visu pasludinās.”
The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah is coming. When he comes, he will tell us everything [we need to know].” (‘Messiah’ and ‘Christ’ [both mean ‘God’s promised king]’.)
26 Jēzus uz to saka: “Es Tas esmu, kas ar tevi runā.”
Jesus said to her, “I, the one speaking to you, am [the Messiah]!”
27 Un tai brīdī Viņa mācekļi nāca un brīnījās, ka Viņš ar to sievu runāja. Tomēr neviens nesacīja: Ko Tu vaicā? Jeb, ko Tu runā ar viņu?
Just then [we] disciples returned [from town]. [Since it was contrary to our custom for Jewish religious teachers to converse with a woman they did not know], we were surprised that he was talking to a woman. However, none of us asked her, “What do you want?” and none of us asked him, “Why are you talking with her?”
28 Tad tā sieva pameta savu ūdens trauku un nogāja pilsētā un sacīja uz tiem ļaudīm:
The woman left her water jar there and went into the town. She said to the people there,
29 “Nāciet, redziet vienu cilvēku, kas man visu ir sacījis, ko es esmu darījusi. Vai Šis nav Tas Kristus?”
“Come and see a man who [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP], [even though I never met him before] Could this man be the Messiah?”
30 Tad tie izgāja no pilsētas un nāca pie Viņa.
So [many people] left the town and started going to where Jesus was.
31 Un pa to starpu tie mācekļi Viņu lūdza sacīdami: “Rabbi, ēd.”
Meanwhile, we disciples were urging him, “Teacher, eat [some of the food we brought]!”
32 Bet Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Man barība jāēd, ko jūs nezināt.”
But he said to us, “I have food to eat that you do not know anything about!”
33 Tad tie mācekļi savā starpā sacīja: “Vai kas Viņam ko atnesis ēst?”
So we started saying to each other, “(Surely no one has brought him any food [when we] were not [here]!/Has anyone brought him any food [when we] were not [here]?) [RHQ]”
34 Jēzus uz tiem saka: “Mana barība ir, ka Es daru Tā prātu, kas Mani sūtījis, un padaru Viņa darbu.
Jesus said to us, “Doing what [my Father] who sent me wants [me to do] and finishing the work he [gave me to do] is ([what sustains me/like] my food) [MET].
35 Vai jūs nesakāt: Vēl ir četri mēneši, tad nāk pļaujamais laiks? Redzi, Es jums saku: Paceliet savas acis un skatiet tās druvas, jo tās jau ir baltas uz pļaušanu.
[At this time of the year] you are saying (OR, your ancestors used to say), ‘There are four months left before we harvest [the crops].’ But I say to you, look carefully [at the non-Jewish people around here. God says, ‘They are ready to accept my message] [MET], [like crops in] fields that are ready for people to harvest.
36 Un kas pļauj, tas dabū algu un sakrāj augļus uz mūžīgu dzīvošanu, ka abi var priecāties kopā, sējējs un pļāvējs. (aiōnios g166)
[If you help them to accept my message], I will reward you [MET], [as an owner of a field] pays those who harvest the crops. Because of your work, people will gain eternal life.’ [I have been telling people God’s message. That is like] [MET] a man who plants seeds. [You will help people to accept my message. That will be like] [MET] harvesting crops. [When that happens], both you and I will rejoice. (aiōnios g166)
37 Jo še tas vārds ir tiesa: Cits ir tas sējējs un cits tas pļāvējs.
As a result, this saying will become true: One person plants [seeds], but others harvest [the crops].
38 Es jūs esmu sūtījis pļaut, kur jūs neesat strādājuši; citi tur strādājuši, un jūs esat nākuši viņu darbā.”
I am sending you [to enable people to accept my message, but you will not be the first ones who tell them God’s message]. Others [previously] worked hard [to tell people God’s message], and now you will be harvesting the results of their work.”
39 Bet no tās pašas pilsētas daudz Samariešu ticēja uz Viņu tās sievas vārdu dēļ, kas liecību deva: “Viņš man visu ir sacījis, ko es esmu darījusi.”
Many of the Samaria [district] people who [lived] in that town believed that Jesus [was the Messiah] because they heard what that woman said [about Jesus], “That man [was able to] tell me all about my past life [HYP]!”
40 Kad nu tie Samarieši pie Viņa nāca, tad tie Viņu lūdza, ka Viņš pie tiem paliktu; un Viņš tur palika divas dienas.
So when those people of Samaria came to Jesus, they urged him to stay with them. So we stayed there two days.
41 Un daudz vairāk no tiem ticēja Viņa paša vārdu dēļ,
Many more of those people believed ([in Jesus/that he was the Messiah]) because of what he said.
42 Un sacīja uz to sievu: “Mēs neticam vairs tavas valodas dēļ, jo mēs paši esam dzirdējuši un zinām, ka Šis tiešām ir Tas pasaules Pestītājs, Tas Kristus.”
They told the woman, “We believe in Jesus [now], but not [just] because of what you told us. Now we have heard him ourselves. And now we know that this man truly is the one who [can] save [people] [MTY] [from the guilt of their sins].”
43 Un pēc divām dienām Viņš izgāja no turienes un nogāja uz Galileju.
Jesus had said [previously] that people did not honor prophets [like himself when they tried to teach people] in their own home area. So, two days later, Jesus and [we] disciples left that area and went to [his own area in] Galilee [district, because he knew that people there would not think very highly of him, and as a result the Jewish leaders would not be jealous].
44 Jo pats Jēzus apliecināja, ka pravietis savā tēvijā netop turēts godā.
45 Kad Viņš nu nāca uz Galileju, tad tie Galileji Viņu uzņēma, jo tie visu bija redzējuši, ko Viņš svētkos Jeruzālemē bija darījis; jo tie arīdzan bija nākuši uz svētkiem.
However, when we arrived in Galilee [district, many] of the people there welcomed him, because they had been in Jerusalem during the [Passover] celebration and had seen all the things he did there.
46 Tad Jēzus atkal nāca uz Kānu iekš Galilejas, kur Viņš ūdeni bija darījis par vīnu.
Jesus went again to Cana in Galilee [district]. That was where he [previously] turned water into wine. There was one of the king’s officials who lived in Capernaum, whose son was very sick.
47 Un tur viens ķēniņa sulainis bija, kam dēls gulēja nevesels Kapernaūmā. Šis dzirdējis, ka Jēzus bija nācis no Jūdejas uz Galileju, nogāja pie Viņa un To lūdza, lai noietu un viņa dēlam palīdzētu, jo tas guļot uz miršanu.
When that man heard [others say] that Jesus had returned to Galilee [district] from Judea [district], he went to Jesus [in Cana] and pleaded with him, “Please come down [to Capernaum] and heal my son, who is about to die!”
48 Tad Jēzus uz viņu sacīja: “Ja jūs zīmes un brīnumus neredzat, tad jūs neticat.”
Jesus said to him, “You people will believe my message only if you see me perform [more] miracles!”
49 Tas ķēniņa sulainis uz Viņu saka: “Kungs, nāc, pirms nekā mans dēls mirst.”
But the official said to him, “Sir, ([I] believe [in you/I believe that you came from God]). [So please] come down [to my home] before my son dies!”
50 Jēzus uz viņu saka: “Ej, tavs dēls dzīvs.” Un tas cilvēks ticēja tam vārdam, ko Jēzus uz viņu bija sacījis, un aizgāja.
Jesus said to him, “Then you may go [home]. Your son (will live/not die)!” The man believed what Jesus said, and left.
51 Un noejot viņa kalpi to sastapa un tam pasludināja un sacīja: “Tavs dēls dzīvs.”
[The next day] while he was on the way home, his servants met him. They told him, “Your child is going to live!”
52 Tad tas no viņiem izvaicāja to stundu, kur ar viņu bija palicis labāk. Un tie uz viņu sacīja: “Vakar ap septīto stundu drudzis viņu atstāja.”
He asked them, “At what time did my son start to become well?” They said to him, “His fever ceased yesterday [afternoon] at one o’clock.”
53 Tad tas tēvs nomanīja ap to stundu esam, kad Jēzus viņam bija sacījis: “Tavs dēls dzīvs.” Un viņš ticēja ar visu savu saimi.
Then the boy’s father realized that this was the time Jesus told him, “Your son will (live/not die).” So he and all the people in his house believed [that Jesus was the Messiah].
54 Šī tā otrā brīnuma zīme, ko Jēzus darīja, nākdams no Jūdejas uz Galileju.
That was the second miracle that Jesus performed in Galilee [district], after he had returned from Judea [district].
