< UJohane 21 >

1 Ngemva kwesikhathi uJesu waphinda waziveza kubafundi bakhe oLwandle lwaseThibheriyasi. Kwenzakala kanje:
After these things revealed Himself again Jesus to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; He revealed [Himself] now in this way.
2 USimoni Phethro, loThomasi (othiwa nguDidimasi) loNathaneli waseKhana eseGalile, lamadodana kaZebhediya labanye abafundi ababili babendawonye.
They were together Simon Peter, and Thomas who is being named Didymus, and Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and others of the disciples of Him two.
3 USimoni Phethro wabatshela wathi, “Ngisayagola inhlanzi” bona bathi, “Sizahamba lawe.” Ngakho baphuma bayangena esikepeni kodwa kababambanga lutho ngalobobusuku.
Says to them Simon Peter; I am going to fish. They say to him; Come also we ourselves with you. They went forth and (they climbed *N(k)O*) into the boat (immediately *K*) and during that [very] night they caught no [thing].
4 Ekuseni kakhulu uJesu wema ekhunjini kodwa abafundi kabananzelelanga ukuthi kwakunguJesu.
When morning now already (having become *NK(o)*) stood (*k*) Jesus on the shore; not however knew the disciples that Jesus it is.
5 Wabamemeza wathi, “Bangane, lilokhu lingabambanga nhlanzi yini?” Baphendula bathi, “Hatshi.”
Says therefore to them Jesus; Children, Surely not any fish have you? They answered to Him; No.
6 Wathi, “Phoselani umambule wenu ngakwesokunene kwesikepe lizagola khona.” Bathe sebenze njalo behluleka ukudonsa umambule ngenxa yobunengi benhlanzi.
And He said to them; do cast to the right side of the boat the net and you will find [some]. They cast therefore, and no longer no longer it to haul in (were they able *N(k)O*) from the multitude of the fish.
7 Lowomfundi owayethandwa nguJesu wathi kuPhethro, “YiNkosi!” USimoni Phethro wonela ukuzwa esithi, “YiNkosi,” wazembathisa ngesigqoko sakhe sejazi (ngoba wayesikhulule) weqela emanzini.
Says therefore the disciple that [one] whom was loving Jesus to Peter; The Lord it is. Simon therefore Peter having heard that the Lord it is the outer garment put on he was for naked and he cast himself into the sea.
8 Abanye abafundi balandela ngesikepe bedonsa umambule ugcwele inhlanzi ngoba babengakhatshana lasokhunjini, kwakungaba yizinyathelo ezilikhulu.
And the other disciples in the boat came; not for were they far from the land but about away cubits two hundred dragging the net with the fish.
9 Ekufikeni kwabo okhunjini babona umlilo wamalahle uvutha kulenhlanzi phezulu kanye lesinkwa.
When therefore they got out onto the land, they see a fire of coals lying and fish lying on [it] and bread.
10 UJesu wathi kubo, “Lethani ezinye inhlanzi elizibambileyo.”
Says to them Jesus; do bring [some] of the fish that you have caught now.
11 USimoni Phethro wagada esikepeni, wadonsela umambule okhunjini. Wawugcwele inhlanzi ezinkulu, zilikhulu lamatshumi amahlanu lantathu, kodwa loba zinengi kangaka umambule kawudabukanga.
Went up (therefore *NO*) Simon Peter and drew the net (to the land *N(k)O*) full of fish large a hundred fifty three; although so many there are not was torn the net.
12 UJesu wathi kubo, “Wozani lizokudla.” Kakho kubafundi owaqunga isibindi sokumbuza ukuthi, “Ungubani wena?” Bakwazi ukuthi yiNkosi.
Says to them Jesus; Come do have breakfast. None however was daring of the disciples to ask Him; You yourself who are? knowing that the Lord it is.
13 UJesu weza, wathatha isinkwa wabanika, wenza njalo langenhlanzi.
Comes (therefore *K*) (*ko*) Jesus and takes the bread and gives [it] to them and the fish likewise.
14 Lesi kwasekuyisikhathi sesithathu uJesu ezibonakalisa kubafundi bakhe ngemva kokuvuswa kwabafileyo.
This [is] now [the] third time was revealed (*ko*) Jesus to the disciples (of him *k*) having been raised out from [the] dead.
15 Sebeqedile ukudla, uJesu wathi kuSimoni Phethro, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, ungithanda ngeqiniso na okudlula laba abanye?” Wathi, “Yebo, Nkosi, uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Phana amawundlu ami ukudla.”
When therefore they had dined, says to Simon to Peter Jesus; Simon ([son] of John, *N(K)O*) love you Me more than these? He says to Him; Yes Lord, You yourself know that I dearly love You. He says to him; do feed the lambs of Mine.
16 UJesu waphinda wathi, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, uyangithanda ngeqiniso na?” Waphendula wathi, “Yebo, Nkosi, uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Gcina izimvu zami.”
He says to him again a second time; Simon ([son] of John, *N(K)O*) love you Me? He says to Him; Yes Lord, You yourself know that I dearly love You. He says to him; do shepherd the sheep of Mine.
17 Wasesithi kuye okwesithathu, “Simoni, ndodana kaJohane, uyangithanda na?” UPhethro wadabuka ngoba uJesu wambuza okwesithathu wathi, “Uyangithanda na?” Wathi, “Nkosi, uyazazi izinto zonke; uyakwazi ukuthi ngiyakuthanda.” UJesu wathi, “Phana izimvu zami ukudla.
He says to him the third time; Simon ([son] of John, *N(K)O*) do you dearly love Me? Was grieved Peter because He said to him the third time; Do you dearly love Me? And (he speaks *N(k)O*) to Him; Lord, all things You yourself know, You yourself know that I dearly love You. Says to him Jesus; do feed the sheep of Mine.
18 Ngikutshela iqiniso ngithi, usesemutsha wawuzigqokisa, uziyele lapho othanda khona; kodwa nxa usuluphele, uzakwelula izandla zakho, ugqokiswe ngomunye, akuhole akuse lapho ongafuni ukuya khona.”
Amen Amen I say to you; When you were younger, you were dressing yourself and were walking where you were desiring. when however you may be old, you will stretch forth the hands of you, and another you will dress and will bring [you] where not you do desire.
19 UJesu wakutsho lokhu ebonisa indlela yokufa uPhethro ayezadumisa uNkulunkulu ngayo. Wasesithi kuye, “Ngilandela!”
This now He said signifying by what death he will glorify God. And this having said He says to him; do follow Me.
20 UPhethro wanyemukula wabona umfundi uJesu ayemthanda ebalandela. (Nguye lowo oweyama kuJesu esidlweni, owabuzayo wathi, “Nkosi, ngubani ozakuthengisa?”)
Having turned (now *k*) Peter sees the disciple whom was loving Jesus following who also had reclined at the supper on the bosom of Him and said; Lord, who is it who is betraying You?
21 UPhethro wathi embona wathi, “Nkosi, kanti lo-ke?”
Him (therefore *NO*) having seen Peter says to Jesus; Lord, this man and what about?
22 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Nxa ngifuna ukuthi asale ephila ngize ngibuye kulani lawe lokho? Wena kumele ungilandele.”
Says to him Jesus; If him I shall desire to remain until I come, what [is it] to you? You yourself Me do follow.
23 Ngenxa yalokhu, kwaba lehungahunga phakathi kwabazalwane lokuthi umfundi lo wayengezukufa. Kodwa uJesu katshongo ukuthi wayengezukufa; wathi nje kuphela, “Nxa ngifuna ukuthi asale ephila ngize ngibuye, kulani lawe lokho?”
Went out therefore this saying among the brothers that the disciple that not dies; (and *k*) Not said (however *no*) to him Jesus that not he dies, but If him I shall desire to remain until I come, what [is it] to you?
24 Lo nguye umfundi ozifakazayo lezizinto, onguye owazibhala phansi. Siyazi ukuthi ubufakazi bakhe buqotho.
This is the disciple who is bearing witness concerning these things and (the [one] *no*) having written these things, and we know that true of him the testimony is.
25 UJesu wenza ezinye izinto ezinengi njalo. Aluba zonke zazingabhalwa phansi, ngibona ingathi lomhlaba wonke wawuzaswela indawo yezincwadi ezazingabhalwa.
There are now also other things many (that *N(k)O*) did Jesus which if they shall be written every one, not even itself I suppose the world (to have space *NK(o)*) for the to be written books. (Amen *KO*)
