< Yohana 2 >

1 Baada ya lisoba lya itatu, pabile ni arusi kolyo Kana ya Galilaya ni mao bake Yesu abile kolyo.
And on the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there.
2 Yesu ni anapunzi bake babile kabakokwa mu'arusi.
And both Jesus and his disciples were invited to the marriage.
3 Palyo gayomwi divai, mao bake yesu kammakiya, “Babile kwaa ni divai.”
And the wine having failed, the mother of Jesus said to him: They have no wine.
4 Yesu kanyangwa, “Nwawa yoo inihusu namani nenga? muda wango nenga bado timiya.”
Jesus said to her: Woman, what have I to do with you? my hour has not yet come.
5 Mao bake kaamakiya atumishi, “Mupange chochote chaamakiye.”
His mother said to the servants: Whatever he says to you, do.
6 Bai pabile ni mitungi sita ya maliwe palo yatibekwa kwaajili ya tawadha mu'sikukuu ya Ayahudi, kila limo lyabile ni ujazo wa nzio ibele itatu.
Now, according to the Jewish custom of purifying, six water-pots of stone had been set there, containing each two or three baths.
7 Yesu kaamakiya, “Mutweleye mase mumitungi ya maliwe.” Kabatweliya mpaka nnani.
Jesus said to them: Fill the water-pots with water. And they filled them to the brim.
8 Boka po kaabakiya balo atumishi, “Mutole kiasi nambeambe ni mwipeleki kwa mhudumu nkolo ywa mesa.” Bapangite kati kabalagilwa.
And he said to them: Draw out now, and carry it to the governor of the feast. And they carried it.
9 Ywa mhudumu nkolo paagayite galo mase gabile gagapangilwe divai, ila atangite kwaa chapangilwe (Lakini atumishi baletike mase batangite goti gapangike). Boka po kankema ngwana arusi ni
When the governor of the feast had tasted the water that had been made wine, (and he knew not whence it was, but the servants that had drawn the water knew, ) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, and said to him:
10 kummakiya, “Kila yumo huanza ni divai inoyite ni baada ya nyaa nga kubapea divai inoite kwaa. Lakini wenga utikwitunza divai inoite mpaka nambeambe.
Every man sets out the good wine first, and when they have drunk freely, then that which is inferior; but you have kept the good wino till now.
11 Muujiza woo wa Kana ya Galialaya, wabile nga mwanzo ya ishara ya miujiza yaaipangite Yesu, atikuupunua utukufu wake, nga banapunzi bake kabamwamini.
This beginning of signs Jesus made in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.
12 Baada ya yee, Yesu, mao bake, alongo bake ni anapunzi bake kabayenda mu nnema wa Kapernaum ni tama kwoo kwa masoba gachene.
After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers and his disciples. And they continued there not many days.
13 Bai Pasaka ya Bayahudi yabile itikaribia, kwa eyo Yesu kayenda Yerusalemu.
And the passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
14 Kababweni bandu kabapemea ng'ombe, ngondolo ni ngunda nkati ya Hekalu. Ni badilishana mbanje babile batama nkati ya Hekalu.
And he found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting.
15 Yesu apangite mjeredi waubile ni ifundo, ababoite boti babile mu'lihekalu, mpamo ni ng'ombe ni ngondolo. Katomboya mbanje ya baabadili mbanje ni kuipindua mesa yabe.
And when he had made a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, the sheep also, and the oxen, and he poured out the money of the money-changers, and overthrew their tables;
16 Kwa bapemea ngunda kaamakiya, “Muiboye ilebe yee kutalu ni pano, muleke kwipanga nyumba ya Tate bangu kati pandu palisoko.”
and said to those who sold doves: Take these things hence; make not my Father’s house a house of merchandise.
17 Anapunzi bake kabakombokya panga yabile iandikilwe, “Bwigu wa nyumba yako upani lyaa.”
And his disciples remembered that it was written, Zeal for thy house has eaten me up.
18 Akolo ba Kiyahudi kabayangwa, kabammakiya, Ni saliya gani ywalowa kwiobenekeya kwa mana ugapanga makowe aga?”
Then answered the Jews and said to him: What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?
19 Yesu kabayangwa, mlitekwane Hekalu lee ni nenga nalowa kulichenga baada ya masoba atatu.”
Jesus answered and said to them: Destroy this temple, and I will raise it up in three days.
20 Boka po akolo ba Ayahudi kababaya, “Itigarimu miaka arobaini na sita kulichenga hekalu lee ni wenga wabaya upala kulichenga kwa masoba gatatu?
Then the Jews said to him: Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will you rebuild it in three days?
21 Ila, ywembe abayite hekalu kamaanisha yega yake.
But he spoke of the temple of his body.
22 Baadae baada ya kuyoka kwake mu kiwo, anapunzi bake kabakombokya kuwa abayite nyoo, kabaamini maandiko ni longelo lee lyabayilwe tayari ni Yesu.
When, therefore, he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this. And they believed the scripture, and the word that Jesus had spoken.
23 Bai paabile Yerusalemu muda wa Pasaka, muda wa sikukuu bandu baingi batiamini lina lyake, bapabweni ishara ga miujiza aipangite.
And while he was in Jerusalem, during the feast of passover, many believed on his name, because they saw the signs that he did.
24 Lakini Yesu abile kwaa ni imani nabo mana abatangite bandu boti.
But Jesus did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men,
25 Atimuhitaji kwaa mundu yoyoti kummakiya husu ya babile bandu kwa mana atangite chabile nkati yabe.
and had no need that any one should testify of man, for he himself knew what was in man.
