Yohannis 4
1 Egaa Yesuus Yohannis caalaa barattoota akka baayʼifatee fi akka cuuphe Fariisonni dhagaʼuu isaanii Gooftaan ni beeke;
Now when the Lord learned that the Pharisees heard he was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 taʼus barattoota isaatu cuuphaa ture malee Yesuus ofii isaatii hin cuuphine.
(although it was not Jesus himself who baptized them, but his disciples),
3 Inni Yihuudaa dhiisee amma illee Galiilaatti deebiʼe.
he left Judea and went away to Galilee.
4 Innis Samaariyaa keessa darbuu qaba ture.
But he had to pass through Samaria.
5 Kanaafuu gara magaalaa Samaariyaa kan Siikaar jedhamu tokkoo dhufe; magaalaan sunis lafa Yaaqoob ilma isaa Yoosefiif kenne sanatti dhiʼoo dha.
So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
6 Boolli bishaanii kan Yaaqoob tokko achi ture; Yesuusis waan karaa deemuudhaan dadhabeef boolla bishaanii sana bira taaʼe. Yeroonis gara saʼaatii jaʼaa ture.
Jacob's well was there, so Jesus, wearied as he was from the journey, sat by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 Dubartiin Samaariyaa tokkos bishaan waraabbachuu dhufte; Yesuusis, “Mee na obaasi” jedheen.
When a woman from Samaria came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give me some water to drink.”
8 Barattoonni isaa nyaata bituuf gara magaalaa dhaqanii turaniitii.
(For his disciples had gone into the city to buy food.)
9 Dubartiin Samaariyaa sunis Yesuusiin, “Ati utuu Yihuudii taatee jirtuu akkamitti ‘na obaasi’ jettee ana dubartii Samaariyaa kadhatta?” jetteen. Yihuudoonni warra Samaariyaa wajjin walitti dhufeenya hin qaban tureetii.
So the Samaritan woman said to him, “How is it that yoʋ, a Jew, ask for water to drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Yesuusis deebisee, “Kennaa Waaqaatii fi inni, ‘na obaasi’ siin jedhu kun eenyu akka taʼe utuu beektee silaa situ isa kadhata ture; innis bishaan jireenyaa siif kenna ture” jedheen.
Jesus answered her, “If yoʋ knew the gift of God and who it is that is saying to yoʋ, ‘Give me some water to drink,’ yoʋ would have asked him, and he would have given yoʋ living water.”
11 Dubartittiinis akkana jetteen; “Yaa gooftaa, ati waan ittiin waraabbattu hin qabdu; boolli bishaanii kunis gad fagoo dha. Yoos bishaan jireenyaa eessaa argatta?
The woman said to him, “Sir, yoʋ do not even have a bucket to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then can yoʋ get this living water?
12 Ati abbaa keenya Yaaqoob isa boolla bishaanii kana nuu kenne caalta moo? Inni mataan isaa, ijoolleen isaatii fi horiin isaa boolla bishaanii kana keessaa dhugaa turan.”
Are yoʋ greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and livestock?”
13 Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Namni bishaan kana dhugu hundinuu deebiʼee ni dheebota;
Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks this water will thirst again,
15 Dubartittiinis, “Yaa Gooftaa, akka ani hin dheebonneef, bishaan waraabuufis akka ani as hin dhufneef bishaan sana naa kenni” jetteen.
The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty again and have to come here to draw water.”
16 Yesuus immoo, “Dhaqiitii dhirsa kee waamii kottu!” jedheen.
Jesus said to her, “Go call yoʋr husband and come back here.”
17 Dubartittiin, “Ani dhirsa hin qabu” jetteen. Yesuusis akkana jedheen; “Dhirsa hin qabu jechuun kee sirrii dha;
The woman said in response, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “Yoʋ have rightly said, ‘I have no husband,’
18 ati dhirsoota shan qabda turteetii; namichi amma si wajjin jirus dhirsa kee miti. Wanni ati amma dubbate dhugaa dha.”
for yoʋ have had five husbands, and the man yoʋ now have is not yoʋr husband; what yoʋ have said is true.”
19 Dubartittiinis akkana jette; “Yaa Gooftaa, akka ati raajii taate nan hubadha.
The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that yoʋ are a prophet.
20 Abbootiin keenya tulluu kana irratti sagadaa turan; isin Yihuudoonni garuu iddoon namni itti waaqeffachuu qabu Yerusaalem jettu.”
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21 Yesuusis akkana jedheen; “Dubartii nana, na amani; yeroon isin itti tulluu kana irrattis taʼu yookaan Yerusaalemitti Abbaa hin waaqeffanne tokko ni dhufa.
Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, an hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 Isin waan hin beekne waaqeffattu; nu sababii fayyinni Yihuudoota keessaa dhufuuf kan beeknu waaqeffanna.
You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation is from the Jews.
23 Warri dhugaan waaqeffatan yeroon isaan itti hafuuraa fi dhugaadhaan Abbaa waaqeffatan tokko ni dhufa; amma iyyuu dhufeera; Abbaan warra akkasitti isa waaqeffatan barbaada.
But an hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such people to worship him.
24 Waaqni hafuura; warri isa waaqeffatanis Hafuuraa fi dhugaadhaan waaqeffachuu qabu.”
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 Dubartittiinis, “Ani akka Masiihiin Kiristoos jedhamu dhufu nan beeka. Inni yommuu dhufutti waan hunda nutti hima” jetteen.
The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
26 Yesuusis, “Ani, namni amma sitti dubbachaa jiru kun isuma” jedheen.
Jesus said to her, “I who speak to yoʋ am he.”
27 Barattoonni isaa yommusuma deebiʼanii utuu inni dubartii tokko wajjin dubbatuu arganii dinqisiifatan. Garuu namni, “Maal barbaadda?” yookaan “Maaliif ishee wajjin haasofta?” jedhee isa gaafatu tokko iyyuu hin turre.
Just then his disciples came back, and they were amazed that he was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, “What do yoʋ want?” or, “Why are yoʋ speaking with her?”
28 Dubartiin sunis okkotee ishee dhiiftee gara magaalaatti deebite; namootaanis akkana jette;
Then the woman left her water jar, went into the town, and said to the people,
29 “Kottaatii nama waan ani hojjedhe hunda natti hime tokko ilaalaa! Tarii inni Kiristoos taʼinnaa?”
“Come see a man who told me everything I have ever done. Could this be the Christ?”
30 Isaanis magaalaa keessaa baʼanii Yesuus bira dhufan.
So they left the town and began coming to him.
31 Kana gidduutti barattoonni isaa, “Yaa barsiisaa, mee waa nyaadhu!” jedhanii isa kadhatan.
In the meantime the disciples were urging him, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 Inni garuu, “Ani nyaata isin hin beekne kanan nyaadhu qaba” jedheen.
But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
33 Barattoonni isaas, “Namatu nyaata fideefii laata?” jedhanii wal gaafatan.
So the disciples said to one another, “Could someone have brought him something to eat?”
34 Yesuus immoo akkana jedheen; “Nyaanni koo fedhii isa na ergee guutuu fi hojii isaa raawwachuu dha.
Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work.
35 Isin, ‘Jiʼa afurtu hafe; ergasii midhaan walitti qabama’ jettu mitii? Kunoo, ani isinittan hima; akka midhaan bilchaatee walitti qabamuu gaʼe mee ol jedhaatii lafa qotiisaa ilaalaa!
Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and see that the fields are already ripe for harvest.
36 Inni midhaan haamu amma iyyuu mindaa ni argata; jireenya bara baraatiif ija walitti ni qaba; kunis akka inni facaasuu fi inni walitti qabu waliin gammadaniif. (aiōnios g166)
He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Haala kanaan mammaaksi, ‘Inni tokko ni facaasa; kaan immoo ni haama’ jedhu sun dhugaa dha.
For in this the true saying is verified: ‘One sows and another reaps.’
38 Ani akka isin waan itti hin dadhabin haammattaniifan isin erge. Warri kaan itti dadhabaniiru; isin garuu buʼaa dadhabbii isaanii galfattu.”
I sent you to reap what you have not labored for; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 Sababii dubartittiin, “Inni waan ani hojjedhe hunda natti hime” jettee dhugaa baateef namoonni Samaariyaa warri magaalaa sanaa baayʼeen isatti amanan.
Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman's testimony: “He told me everything I have ever done.”
40 Kanaafuu namoonni Samaariyaa yommuu gara isaa dhufanitti akka inni isaan wajjin turuuf isa kadhatan; innis guyyaa lama achi ture.
So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there for two days.
41 Sababii dubbii isaatiinis namoonni biraa baayʼeen isatti amanan.
And many more believed because of his word.
42 Isaanis dubartittiidhaan, “Siʼachi wanni nu amannuuf sababii dubbii ati nutti himte sanaatiif miti; nu mataan keenya iyyuu isa dhageenyeerraatii; akka inni dhugumaan Fayyisaa addunyaa taʼes beekneerra” jedhan.
So they said to the woman, “It is no longer because of yoʋr report that we believe, for we ourselves have heard, and we know that this is truly the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
43 Guyyaa lamaan sana booddee Yesuus Galiilaa dhaqe.
After two days, he departed from there and went to Galilee.
44 Yesuus mataan isaa iyyuu akka raajiin tokko biyya isaa keessatti kabaja hin qabne dubbatee tureetii.
(For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.)
45 Yommuu inni Galiilaa gaʼettis warri Galiilaa isa simatan. Isaanis sababii Yerusaalem turaniif waan inni yeroo Ayyaana Faasiikaatti achitti hojjete hunda arganii turan.
When he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him because they had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also had gone to the feast.
46 Kanaafuu inni deebiʼee gara Qaanaa ishee Galiilaa keessaa iddoo itti bishaan gara daadhii wayiniitti geeddaree ture sanaa dhaqe. Qondaalli mootii kan ilmi isaa dhukkubsate tokkos Qifirnaahom keessa ture.
Once more Jesus went to Cana of Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. Now there was a certain royal official whose son was sick in Capernaum.
47 Namichi kunis yommuu akka Yesuus Yihuudaadhaa kaʼee Galiilaa dhufe dhagaʼetti isa bira dhaqee akka inni dhufee ilma isaa kan duʼuu gaʼe sana fayyisu isa kadhate.
When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, for his son was about to die.
48 Kana irratti Yesuus, “Isin yoo mallattoo fi dinqii argitan malee hin amantan!” isaan jedhe.
Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will certainly not believe.”
49 Qondaaltichis, “Yaa Gooftaa, maaloo utuu mucaan koo hin duʼin naa qaqqabi” jedheen.
The royal official said to him, “Sir, come down before my boy dies.”
50 Yesuusis, “Ilmi kee ni jiraataatii gali!” jedheen. Namichis waan Yesuus isatti dubbate amanee deeme.
Jesus said to him, “Go; yoʋr son will live.” And the man believed what Jesus said to him and went on his way.
51 Utuu inni deemaa jiruus tajaajiltoonni isaa itti dhufanii akka ilmi isaa lubbuun jiru itti himan.
As he was going back down to his house, his servants met him and told him, “Yoʋr son is alive.”
52 Innis yeroo itti mucaa isaatti wayyaaʼe gaafate; isaanis, “Kaleessa saʼaatii torbatti dhagna gubaan isa dhiise” jedhaniin.
So he asked them the hour when he began to get better. They said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”
53 Abbaan mucichaas akka yeroon sun yeroo Yesuus itti, “Ilmi kee ni jiraata” jedheen taʼe hubate. Kanaafuu innis, warri mana isaa hundinuus ni amanan.
Then the father realized that this was the hour when Jesus had said to him, “Yoʋr son will live.” So he believed, along with his entire household.
54 Kun mallattoo lammaffaa Yesuus erga Yihuudaadhaa Galiilaa dhufee hojjetee dha.
This was the second sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
