Jaona 20
1 Ie loak’ andro’ ty Sabotse le nañaleñaleñe mb’an-donake mb’eo t’i Miriame nte-Magdalà, ie mbe nimaieñe, vaho naheo’e te nasitak’ amy lonakey i vatoy.
On the first day of the week, early in the morning, while it was still dark, Mary of Magdala went to the tomb, and saw that the stone had been removed.
2 Le nihitrihitry mb’amy Petera naho i mpiama’e nikokoa’ Iesoày mb’eo, nanao ty hoe: Fa tinava’ iereo boak’ an-donak’ ao t’i Talè, le tsy fohi’ay ty nandrohotañ’ aze.
So she came running to Simon Peter, and to that other disciple who was Jesus’ friend, and said to them: “They have taken away the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him!”
3 Niavotse amy zao t’i Petera naho i mpiama’ey nimb’ an-donake mb’eo.
Upon this, Peter started off with that other disciple, and they went to the tomb.
4 Sindre nilay, fe nilosore’ i mpiama’ey t’i Petera vaho niavy an-donake eo aolo.
The two began running together; but the other disciple ran faster than Peter, and reached the tomb first.
5 Ie nibotreke, niisa’e o lamba-lenio nidoñe eo, f’ie tsy nizilik’ ao.
Stooping down, he saw the linen wrappings lying there, but did not go in.
6 Pok’eo amy zao t’i Petera nanonjohy aze, le nimoak’ an-donak’ ao vaho nahaisake te nidoke eo o lamba lenio,
Presently Simon Peter came following behind him, and went into the tomb; and he looked at the linen wrappings lying there,
7 fe tsy nirekets’ amo lamba lenio ty lamba nakolopok’ i añambone’ey, f’ie niholoñe tokañe eo.
and the cloth which had been upon Jesus’ head, not lying with the wrappings, but rolled up on one side, separately.
8 Nizilik’ ao amy zao i mpiama’e niavy aolo an-donakey, le nahatrea vaho niantoke.
Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, went inside too, and he saw for himself and was convinced.
9 Mbe tsy nirendre’ iereo hey i Sokitse Masiñe manao t’ie tsi-mahay tsy mitroatse amy havilasiy.
For they did not then understand the passage of Scripture which says that Jesus must rise again from the dead.
10 Le nimpoly mb’an-kiboho’ iareo añe i mpiama’e rey.
The disciples then returned to their companions.
11 Nijohañe alafe’ i lonakey avao t’i Marie, nirovetse; ie mbe niharovetse, nibokoke naho nitilihitse an-donak’ ao
Meanwhile Mary was standing close outside the tomb, weeping. Still weeping, she leant forward into the tomb,
12 vaho nahaoniñe ty anjely roe nisaroñe foty niambesatse ey, ty atondohà’e eo naho ty antimpahe’e eo, amy nandrohotañe ty fañòva’ Iesoày.
and perceived two angels clothed in white sitting there, where the body of Jesus had been lying, one where the head and the other where the feet had been.
13 Le hoe iereo tama’e, O Rakembao, ino ty iroveta’o. Hoe re am’iereo: Nasinta’ iereo i Talèkoy, le tsy fantako ty nandrohotañ’ aze.
“Why are you weeping?” asked the angels. “They have taken my Master away,” she answered, “and I do not know where they have laid him.”
14 Ie nanoe’e izay le nitolike vaho nahaisake Iesoà nijohañe eo, fe tsy napota’e t’ie Iesoà.
After saying this, she turned round, and looked at Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.
15 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: O Rakembao, inoñe ty angololoiha’o? Ia ty paia’o? Ie natao’e te mpañalahala goloboñe, le nanoa’e ty hoe: O androanavio, naho ninday aze boak’ etoan-drehe, taroño amako ty nandrohota’o aze, hitakonako añe.
“Why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?” he asked. Supposing him to be the gardener, Mary answered: “If it was you, Sir, who carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away myself.”
16 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: O Marie. Natrefa’e le nanoa’e ty hoe: O Rabony, ze midika ty hoe: Talèko.
“Mary!” said Jesus. She turned round, and exclaimed in Hebrew: “Rabboni!” (or, as we should say, ‘Teacher’).
17 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: Ko mitsapa ahy, fa mboe tsy nionjoñe mb’ aman-dRaeko, akia mb’ aman-drolongoko mb’eo vaho atalilio te: Mionjom-baman-dRaeko naho Rae’ areo, mb’ aman’ Añahareko naho Andrianañahare’ areo mb’eo.
“Do not hold me,” Jesus said; “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my Brothers, and tell them that I am ascending to him who is my Father and their Father, my God and their God.”
18 Nienga t’i Miriame nte-Magdalà nitaroñe amo mpiama’eo t’ie nahaisak’ i Talè naho te nisaontsia’e irezay.
Mary of Magdala went and told the disciples that she had seen the Master, and that he had said this to her.
19 Ie hariva amy àndroy, ty loak’ andro’ i Sabotse naho nagabeñe o lalan’ anjomba’ niharoa’ o mpiama’eoo ie nihembañ’ amo Tehodaoy, le nisodehañe eo t’Iesoà, nijohañe añivo’ iareo ao nanao ty hoe: Fañanintsiñe ama’areo.
In the evening of the same day — the first day of the week — after the doors of the room, in which the disciples were, had been shut for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said: “Peace be with you”;
20 Ie nanoe’e izay, le nitoroa’e o fità’eo naho i leme’ey. Le nifale o mpiama’eo te nahaisake i Talè.
after which he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were filled with joy when they saw the Master.
21 Nindrae’ Iesoà am’iereo ty hoe: Fañanintsiñe ama’areo. Hambañe ami’ty nañitrifan-dRaeko ahy ty añirahako anahareo.
Again Jesus said to them: “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me as his Messenger, so I am sending you.”
22 Ie nitsara izay le tinio’e iereo, nanao ty hoe: Rambeso i Arofo Masiñey;
After saying this, he breathed on them, and said: “Receive the Holy Spirit;
23 Aa ndra hakeo’ iaia ty apo’ areo ro hafahañe ama’e; f’ie ho tanañe naho tana’ areo.
if you remit any one’s sins, they have been remitted; and, if you retain them, they have been retained.”
24 Tsy nitraok’ am’iereo t’i Tomasy, atao Didimo, mpiamy folo ro’amby rey, amy nivotraha’ Iesoày.
But Thomas, one of the Twelve, called ‘The Twin,’ was not with them when Jesus came;
25 Aa le nitalily ty hoe ama’e o mpiama’e ila’eo: Fa niisa’ay t’i Talè. Fe hoe re: Lehe tsy treako am-pità’e eo o olam-pantsikeo, naho tsy aziliko amo olatseo ty rambo-tañako vaho atsorofoko an-deme’e ao ty tañako, izaho tsy hiantoke.
so the rest of the disciples said to him: “We have seen the Master!” “Unless I see the marks of the nails in his hands,” he exclaimed, “and put my finger into the marks, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it.”
26 Ie nimodo ty valo andro, le tao indraike o mpiama’eo rekets’ i Tomasy. Le nivotrak’ eo t’Iesoà, ie nirindriñe o lalañeo, nijohañe añivo’ iereo eo, nanao ty hoe: Fañanintsiñe ama’areo.
A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas with them. After the doors had been shut, Jesus came and stood among them, and said: “Peace be with you.”
27 Le hoe re tamy Tomasy: Atakaro mb’ etoañe ty rambo-pità’o, heheke o tañakoo; le amparo mb’etoañe o fità’oo naho ampiziliho an-demeko etoa, vaho ko mañaly tro fa matokisa.
Then he said to Thomas: “Place your finger here, and look at my hands; and place your hand here, and put it into my side; and do not refuse to believe, but believe.”
28 Hoe ty natoi’ i Tomasy aze: Ry Talèko naho Andrianañahareko!
And Thomas exclaimed: “My Master, and my God!”
29 Hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: Ihe nahaisak’ ahy ro natokisa’o; haha ze miato fa tsy nahaoniñe.
“Is it because you have seen me that you have believed?” said Jesus. “Blessed are they who have not seen, and yet have believed!”
30 Mbe maro ty viloñe nanoe’ Iesoà añatrefa’ o mpiama’eo ze tsy sinokitse ami’ty boke toy.
There were many other signs of his mission that Jesus gave in presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book;
31 Sinoratse ka o retoañe hatokisa’ areo te Iesoà Norizañey ro Anan’ Añahare vaho i tahina’ey ro anaña’areo mpiato haveloñe.
but these have been recorded that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God — and that, through your belief in his Name, you may have Life.
