Yohani 4
1 Mafalisayu wapikiniriti handa Yesu kaweriti kankubatiza na kankuwapata wafundwa wavuwa kuliku Yohani.
Now when the Lord learned that the Pharisees heard he was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 Kumbiti nakaka Yesu kawera ndiri kankubatiza ira wafundwa wakuwi ndo waweriti wankubatiza.
(although it was not Jesus himself who baptized them, but his disciples),
3 Yesu pakapikaniriti aga, kalawa Yudeya kagenda Galilaya,
he left Judea and went away to Galilee.
4 pamwanja gwakuwi kalazimika kupitila Samariya.
But he had to pass through Samaria.
5 Su kafikiti Sikari, lushi lumu lwa Samariya, pakwegera na lirambu lilii Yakobu lyakamupiti mwana gwakuwi Yosefu.
So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
6 Na panu paweriti na linegu lya Yakobu. Yesu kaweriti katoka toziya ya mwanja, su kalivagiti pasi pampenku pa linegu. Iweriti ipata saa sita paliwala.
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 Mdala Msamariya kiziti kuteka mashi na Yesu kamgambira, “Gunupi mashi nandi.”
When a woman from Samaria came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give me some water to drink.”
8 Wafundwa wakuwi wagenditi mulushi kuhemera shiboga.
(For his disciples had gone into the city to buy food.)
9 Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Gwenga gwa Muyawudi, neni na Msamariya! Su guwezahashi kunduwa mashi ga kulanda?” Wayawudi hapeni watumii vikombi na vibakuli vyavihanganyikiti na vya wantu wa Samariya.
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 Yesu kamwankula, “Handa meguvimaniti mafupu ga Mlungu na gaa yakakuluwa mashi ga kulanda, megumluwi na yomberi mekakupi mashi ga ukomu.”
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 Mdala uliya kalonga, “Mtuwa, gwenga gwahera shintu sha kutekera mashi na linegu ndo litalipa. Su, hagupati koshi mashi gana ukomu?
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 Mbuyi gwetu Yakobu ndo yakatupiti linegu ali, yomberi na wana wakuwi pamuhera na mifugu yakuwi yoseri walanditi mashi aga. Ashi gwenga gulitumba kuwera mkulu kuliku Yakobu?”
Are yoʋ greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and livestock?”
13 Yesu kamwankula, “Woseri walanda mashi aga hawaweri na kwimiluwa kayi.
Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks this water will thirst again,
15 Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Mtuwa, gunupi mashi aga! Shakapanu hapeni numuluwi kayi na hapeni nizi kayi panu kuteka mashi.”
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 Yesu kamgambira, “Gugendi gwakamshemi mpalu gwaku gwizi nayomberi.”
Jesus said to her, “Go call yoʋr husband and come back here.”
17 Mdala uliya kamwankula, “Neni nahera mpalu,” Yesu kamgambira, “Gutakula weri pagutakuliti gwahera mpalu.
The woman said in response, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “Yoʋ have rightly said, ‘I have no husband,’
18 Guyugwa na wapalu wamuhanu, yomberi yagulikala nayu vinu, mpalu gwaku ndiri. Gung'ambira nakaka.”
for yoʋ have had five husbands, and the man yoʋ now have is not yoʋr husband; what yoʋ have said is true.”
19 Mdala uliya kamgambira, “Mtuwa, mona gwenga gwa mbuyi gwa Mlungu.
The woman said to him, “Sir, I see that yoʋ are a prophet.
20 Wambuyi wangu wa Samariya wamguwiriti Mlungu mulugongu alu, su mwenga Wayawudi mlonga kuwera Yerusalemu ndo pahala pa kumwabudu Mlungu.”
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21 Yesu kamgambira, “Mdala, gunjimira, shipindi shankwiza ndo sheni wantu hapeni wamguwira Tati mulugongu alu ama ku Yerusalemu.
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 Mwenga Wasamaliya muvimana ndiri nakaka yawamguwira, kumbiti twenga Wayawudi tumumana yatumguwira, toziya ulopoziya wiza kulawa kwa Wayawudi.
You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, because salvation is from the Jews.
23 Kumbiti shipindi shankwiza na kayi shisoka kala, peni wawamguwira nakaka, hawamguwili Tati kwa likakala lya Rohu, wantu wamguwira hangu ndo Tati yakawafira.
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 Mlungu ndo Rohu, na wantu hawawezi hera kumwabudu nakaka kwa likakala lya Rowu gwakuwi.”
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 Mdala ulii kamgambira, “Nuvimana kuwera Kristu Mlopoziya yakasyagulitwi hakizi na pakiza hakatugambiri twenga kila shintu.”
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 Yesu kamgambira, “Neni, ndo yantakula na gwenga.”
Jesus said to her, “I who speak to yoʋ am he.”
27 Shipindi shila shilii wafundwa wa Yesu wawuyiti na waweriti na likangasha likulu pawamwona Yesu pakatakula na mdala. Kwehera yumu pakati pawu yakamgambiriti mdala ulii, “Gufira shishi?” Ama kumkosiya Yesu, “Iwera hashi gwankutakula na mdala ayu?”
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 Su, mdala uliya kaileka vulu yakuwi, kagenda mulushi na kuwagambira wantu,
Then the woman left her water jar, went into the town, and said to the people,
29 “Mwizi mloli muntu yakang'ambiriti vitwatira vyoseri vyantenditi. Hashi, iwezikana yomberi kawera Kristu yakasyagulitwi na Mlungu?”
“Come see a man who told me everything I have ever done. Could this be the Christ?”
30 Wantu walawa mulushi, wamgendera Yesu.
So they left the town and began coming to him.
31 Shipindi shila shiriya wafundwa waweriti wankumuhiga Yesu, “mfunda, gulii shiboga!”
In the meantime the disciples were urging him, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 Su Yesu kawankula, “Neni nana shiboga shamshimana ndiri.”
But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
33 Wafundwa wakuwi walitakuziyana weni, “Hashi, kwana muntu yoseri yakamjegiriti shiboga?”
So the disciples said to one another, “Could someone have brought him something to eat?”
34 Yesu kawagambira, “Shiboga shaneni ndo kugajimira gakafira ulii yakantumiti neni na kumalira lihengu lyakanupiti kutenda.
Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work.
35 Mwenga mtakula, ‘Kunkali myezi ya msheshi hera, shipindi sha kubenanga hashisoki.’ Su nukugambirani, mloli marambu, viboga vinu vipiya kala na viwera kala kubenanga!
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 Yakabena viboga kankupata shibenamgongu na kankujojinira viboga kwa mashaka goseri, su yumonga yakayala na ulii yakabena hawanemeleri pamuhera. (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 Kutakula aku kwa nakaka, ‘Yumu kayalaga na yumonga kabenaga.’
For in this the true saying is verified: ‘One sows and another reaps.’
38 Neni nuwatumiti mwenga mwakabeni viboga mulirambu mtenda ndiri lihengu, wamonga watenditi lihengu kulii na mwenga muna mota kulawirana na lihengu lyawatenditi.”
I sent you to reap what you have not labored for; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 Wasamariya wavuwa mulushi lulii wamjimiriti Yesu toziya mdala uliya katakuliti, “Kang'ambiriti neni shintu shoseri shantenditi.”
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 Su Wasamariya pawamgendiriti Yesu, wamuluwiti yomberi kalikali pamuhera na womberi na Yesu kalikaliti kulii mashaka mawili.
So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them, and he stayed there for two days.
41 Wantu wavuwa wamjimiriti toziya ya ujumbi wakuwi,
And many more believed because of his word.
42 na womberi wamgambira mdala uliya, “Vinu twenga tujimira, toziya ndiri ya shilii shagutakuliti, ira toziya twenga tumpikanira twaweni na tuvimana kuwera nakaka ndo Mlopoziya gwa pasipanu.”
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 Pagapititi mashaka mawili, Yesu kawukiti paliya na kugenda Galilaya.
After two days, he departed from there and went to Galilee.
44 Mana Yesu mweni katakuliti, “Mbuyi gwa Mlungu hapeni kapananwi ligoya muisi yakuwi.”
(For Jesus himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.)
45 Pakafikiti Galilaya, wantu wa paliya wamshemiriti, toziya pawaweriti mumsambu gwa Pasaka kulii Yerusalemu wawonaga vitwatira vyoseri vyakatenditi Yesu shipindi sha msambu.
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 Su Yesu kawuyiti kayi Kana mumkowa gwa Galilaya, pahala pakagalambuziti mashi kuwera divayi. Afisa gwa sirikali kaweriti paliya mwana gwakuwi kaweriti kalwala ku Kafarinaumu.
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 Pakapikaniriti handa Yesu kankwiza Galilaya pakalawila Yudeya, kamgendiriti yomberi na kumgambira kagendi Kaferinawumu na kamuponiziyi mwana gwakuwi, yakaweriti sambira kahowa.
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 Yesu kamgambira, “Pamwona ndiri malangaliru na mauzauza, hapeni mjimiri!”
Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will certainly not believe.”
49 Afisa ulii kamwankula, “Mtuwa, tugendi pamuhera vinu, mwana keni howi.”
The royal official said to him, “Sir, come down before my boy dies.”
50 Yesu kamgambira, “Gugendi, mwana gwaku hakaweri mkomu!” Muntu uliya kavimaniti visoweru vya Yesu, su kagenda zakuwi.
Jesus said to him, “Go; yoʋr son will live.” And the man believed what Jesus said to him and went on his way.
51 Pakaweriti kankali kamunjira kuwuya ukaya kaliwoniti na wantumintumi wakuwi pawamjegera visoweru, “Mndemba gwakuwi kawera mkomu!”
As he was going back down to his house, his servants met him and told him, “Yoʋr son is alive.”
52 Kawakosiya shipindi gaa mwana gwakuwi pakaweriti mkomu na womberi wamwankula, “Iweriti saa saba paliwala lishu nshimba kupyupa paimlekeziyiti.”
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 Tati uliya kaliholiti kuwera shipindi shiliya ndo Yesu pakamgambiriti, “Mwana gwaku hakaweri mkomu.” Su mweni pamuhera na kaya yakuwi yoseri wamjimira Yesu.
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 Liuzauza ali ndo lya pili lyakatenditi Yesu pakaweriti kankulawa Yudeya na kugenda Galilaya.
This was the second sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
