< Yohanis 4 >

1 Mete ma taꞌasasamaꞌ Yohanis no Yesus, na, Yesus ana mana tungga nara sarani atahori hetar lenaꞌ mana tungga E. Yesus nda sarani atahori sa, akaꞌ Eni ana mana tungga nara mana sarani atahori. Basa ma, leleꞌ Yesus bubꞌuluꞌ oi, atahori mia partei agama Farisi rena ara sarani atahori hetar lenaꞌ,
Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees had heard it said, "Jesus is gaining and baptizing more disciples than John"--
2
though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did--
3 boe ma no ana mana tungga nara lao hela nusa Yudea, de baliꞌ risiꞌ profinsi Galilea.
He left Judaea and returned to Galilee.
4 Te ara musi lao tungga profinsi Samaria fo losa profinsi Galilea.
His road lay through Samaria,
5 Ara lao, ma ara losa kota esa sia Samaria, naran Sikar, deka-deka no rae fo baꞌi Yakob fee neu anan Yusuf.
and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Sia naa, hambu oe mataꞌ esa, naran ‘Yakob oen’. Reorendu boe ma, Yesus se losa naa. Ana namedꞌa bengge mia sira lalao nara, de Ana endoꞌ hahae aon sia oe naa. Boe ma Ana mana tungga nara lao hela mesaꞌ ne neu naa, de reu hasa nanaat sia kota rala. Boe ma inaꞌ esa mia kota naa nema haꞌi oe sia oe mataꞌ naa. Yesus noꞌe mbali e nae, “Aꞌa. Au bisa oꞌe oe nininuꞌ mbei, do?”
Jacob's Well was there: and accordingly Jesus, tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest. It was about six o'clock in the evening.
7
Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus asked her to give Him some water;
8
for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.
9 Te inaꞌ naa nggengger, huu atahori Yahudi nda nau raꞌabꞌue ro atahori Samaria ra sa. De ana natane baliꞌ Yesus nae, “Weh! Toꞌo atahori Yahudi. Au ia, atahori Samaria. Nda sala sa, do? Toꞌo moꞌe minu sia au e?”
"How is it," replied the woman, "that a Jew like you asks me, who am a woman and a Samaritan, for water?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Taꞌo ia. Mete ma aꞌa bubꞌuluꞌ saa fo Lamatualain nae fee basa atahori, ma muhine Au mana oꞌe inu ia, Seka, na tantu aꞌa noꞌe oe mia Au. Boe ma Au fee oe mana nendi masodꞌaꞌ.”
"If you had known God's free gift," replied Jesus, "and who it is that said to you, 'Give me some water,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
11 Inaꞌ naa nae, “Toꞌo nda ma ember hahandoꞌ sa. Boe ma oe mataꞌ ia, roman seli. Mia bee nema Toꞌo hambu oe mana nendi masodꞌaꞌ naa? Oe naa hambu sia bee fai?
"Sir," she said, "you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; so where can you get the living water from?
12 Tantu Toꞌo nda manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ hai baꞌi Yakob ma sa! Eni mana lao hela oe mataꞌ ia fee hai. Boe ma eni o ninu mia oe mataꞌ ia boe. Eni ana nara, ro banda nara o onaꞌ naa boe.”
Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?"
13 Yesus nataa nae, “Musunedꞌa, e! Atahori mana ninu mia oe mataꞌ ia, dei fo ana naꞌamadꞌa seluꞌ fai.
"Every one," replied Jesus, "who drinks any of this water will be thirsty again;
14 Te atahori mana ninu oe fo Au feeꞌ a, dei fo ana nda naꞌamadꞌa seluꞌ sa ena. Huu oe fo Au feeꞌ naa, onaꞌ oe mataꞌ sa mana nasapupuraꞌ dea nema. Oe naa, nendi masodꞌaꞌ matetuꞌ nda mana etuꞌ sa.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
but whoever drinks any of the water that I shall give him will never, never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become a fountain within him of water springing up for the Life of the Ages." (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
15 Inaꞌ naa nae, “Mete ma taꞌo naa, na, Toꞌo fee au oe naa leo, fo onaꞌ bee na, au sudꞌi boe uꞌumadꞌa fai! No taꞌo naa, au sudꞌi boe uma haꞌi usufafali oe sia ia fai.”
"Sir," said the woman, "give me that water, that I may never be thirsty, nor continually come all the way here to draw from the well."
16 Boe ma Yesus denu nae, “Taꞌo ia. Aꞌa baliꞌ dei. Moꞌe aꞌa sao ma. fo baliꞌ uma sia ia.”
"Go and call your husband," said Jesus; "and come back."
17 Ana nataa nae, “Te au nda masaoꞌ sa.” Boe ma Yesus nae, “Tebꞌe. Mufadꞌe no rala ndoos. Huu sao ma lima ena. Boe ma mana sia aleꞌ ia, nda sao ma sa.”
"I have no husband," she replied. "You rightly say that you have no husband," said Jesus;
"for you have had five husbands, and the man you have at present is not your husband. You have spoken the truth in saying that."
19 Boe ma inaꞌ naa nae, “Awii! Ia naa au uhine ena, Toꞌo ia, Lamatualain mana ola-olan esa.
"Sir," replied the woman, "I see that you are a Prophet.
20 Naa, au ae utane. Hai atahori Samaria ra bei-baꞌi mara beꞌutee neu Lamatualain sia lete Gerisim. Te hei atahori Yahudi mae, mete ma nau beꞌutee neu Lamatualain, basa atahori musi reu sia Yerusalem. Tungga Toꞌo, matetun, taꞌo bee?”
Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem."
21 Yesus nataa nae, “Aꞌa mumuhere neu oꞌola ngga ia dei, huu ia tebꞌe. Mae beꞌutee neu Lamatualain sia leteꞌ ia do, sia Yerusalem do, dei fo fai na nema, ruꞌa se nda raꞌena ngguna sa ena.
"Believe me," said Jesus, "the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22 Hei atahori Samaria nda mihine naeꞌ sa, soꞌal mimihere neu seka. Te hai atahori Yahudi mihine naeꞌ, soꞌal Lamatualain fo hai beꞌutee neuꞌ a. Huu Ana nae pake hai fo soi dalaꞌ, naa fo atahori hambu masoi-masodꞌaꞌ mia sala-kilu nara.
You worship One of whom you know nothing. We worship One whom we know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
23 Dei fo fai na nema, naeni mia leleꞌ ia, atahori mana beꞌutee tebꞌe neu hita Aman sia sorga, na, ara beꞌutee neu E tungga Dula-dalen, ma tungga ndoo-tetuꞌ a. Huu Amaꞌ sia sorga hii atahori mataꞌ naa ra mana beꞌutee neu E.
But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship; for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.
24 Huu Lamatualain naa, Dula-daleꞌ. De atahori mana beꞌutee neu E musi beꞌutee tungga Dula-dalen, ma tungga matetuꞌ a.”
God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him true spiritual worship."
25 Inaꞌ naa nafadꞌe nae, “Au bubꞌuluꞌ Mesias naa nae nema ena, naeni atahori ingga rae, ‘Kristus’, fo Lamatualain helu-fuli memaꞌ nae haitua nemaꞌ a. Leleꞌ Ana nema ena, na dei fo nafadꞌe basa-bꞌasaꞌ e neu nggita.”
"I know," replied the woman, "that Messiah is coming--'the Christ,' as He is called. When He has come, He will tell us everything."
26 Yesus nataa nae, “Ia eni, Au ena, fo mana ola-olaꞌ leleꞌ ia.”
"I am He," said Jesus--"I who am now talking to you."
27 Nandaa no leleꞌ naa, Ana mana tungga nara baliꞌ mia kota rala rema. Ara heran, huu rita E ola-olaꞌ no ina Samaria esa. Te nda hambu esa natane mbali inaꞌ naa nae, “Nau saa?” Boe ma nda hambu esa natane Yesus nae, “Saa de Papa ola-olaꞌ mo inaꞌ ia?”
Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"
28 Basa ma, inaꞌ a lao hela nggusi na sia naa, de lao baliꞌ kota rala neu. Boe ma ana dui neu atahori sia naa ra nae,
The woman however, leaving her pitcher, went away to the town, and called the people.
29 “Ima mete sobꞌa Atahori ia dei! Te Ana nafadꞌe relo-relo basa-bꞌasa saa fo au tao itaꞌ ra ena. Seꞌu-seꞌu te Eni ia, Kristus, fo Lamatualain helu nae haitua nemaꞌ a!”
"Come," she said, "and see a man who has told me everything I have ever done. Can this be the Christ, do you think?"
30 De atahori ra dea rema mia kota naa, de reu seꞌu E.
They left the town and set out to go to Him.
31 Leleꞌ inaꞌ naa feꞌe baliꞌ neu sia kota rala, Yesus ana mana tungga nara kokoe E rae, “Papa Meser! Uma mua dei!”
Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus. "Rabbi," they said, "eat something."
32 Te nataa nae, “Au uꞌena nanaat ena, te hei nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa.”
"I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."
33 Ana mana tungga nara esa natane esa rae, “Taꞌo bee, ia? Seka mana nema de fee Ne nanaat?”
So the disciples began questioning one another. "Can it be," they said, "that some one has brought Him something to eat?"
34 Te Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Taꞌo ia. Lamatualain denu Au fo tao tungga Eni hihii-nanaun, ma ulalao ue-tataon losa basa. Naa onaꞌ nanaat soaꞌ neu Au.
"My food," said Jesus, "is to be obedient to Him who sent me, and fully to accomplish His work.
35 Naa, hei biasa memeteꞌ sia tine-osi, basa fo takseer mae, ‘Feꞌe fula haa fai, dei fo feꞌe bisa etu-oru ena.’ Rena, e! Au ufadꞌe. Mete ma hei mete maꞌabebꞌesa, tine-osi ra leleꞌ ia randaa etu-oru ena. Tine ra, onaꞌ atahori hetar sia naa rema risiꞌ hita. Huu sira rahehere ramahere neu Au ena.
Do you not say, 'It wants four months yet to the harvest'? But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains-- they are already ripe for the sickle.
36 Nda akaꞌ taꞌo naa sa, te mana etu-oru mana raduru buna-bꞌoa nara sia nggudꞌan rala, sangga rae simbo rala nggadꞌi nara ena. Sira onaꞌ atahori mana natudꞌu dalaꞌ fo atahori ramahere neu Lamatualain, fo hambu masodꞌa ndoo-tetuꞌ nda mana etuꞌ sa. No taꞌo naa, atahori mana sela fini, no atahori mana etu-oru buna-bꞌoaꞌ ra, ramahoꞌo reu esa. (aiōnios g166)
The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Atahori rae, ‘Atahori esa sela fini; atahori laen mana naduru buna-bꞌoa nara.’ Naa tebꞌe ena.
For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying, 'The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'
38 Au denu nggi fo mii miduru buna-bꞌoaꞌ mia atahori laen ue-osan. Memaꞌ hei nda tao ues naa sa, te hei o hambu hahambuꞌ mia bebengge nara.”
I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your own labours. Others have laboured, and you are getting benefit from their labours."
39 Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori Samaria hetar sia kota naa ramahere neu Yesus, huu inaꞌ naa oꞌolan nae, “Ana nakambembela nabasaꞌ basa-bꞌasa saa fo au tao itaꞌ ra.”
Of the Samaritan population of that town a good many believed in Him because of the woman's statement when she declared, "He has told me all that I have ever done."
40 Basa ma leleꞌ ara rema risiꞌ Yesus, ara kokoe tebꞌe-tebꞌe mbali E rae, “Papa leo mo hai sia ia leo!” Boe ma Ana leo naꞌatataaꞌ fai rua sia naa.
When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
41 Boe ma atahori laen hetar o ramahere neu E, huu Eni oꞌolan.
Then a far larger number of people believed because of His own words,
42 Boe ma ara rafadꞌe inaꞌ naa rae, “Afis naa, hai renaꞌ a oꞌolam. Te ia na hai mimihere neu E, huu hai rena mataꞌ mia E. Hai bubꞌuluꞌ tebꞌe mae, Atahori ia, mana bisa fee basa nggita masoi-masodꞌaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia mia sala-kilu tara.”
and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."
43 Yesus se leo fai rua mia naa, boe ma ara lao rakandoo risiꞌ profinsi Galilea.
After the two days He departed, and went into Galilee;
44 (Lao esa Yesus olaꞌ nita nae, “Atahori nda hii fee hadꞌa-hormat neu Lamatualain mana ola-olan sia eni kambon sa.”)
though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour in his own country.
45 Dalahulun, leleꞌ nda feꞌe feta Paska sa, atahori Galilea hetar reu sia kota Yerusalem fo tao fai malole sia naa. Boe ma ara hambu rita basa saa fo Yesus tao sia Yerusalem. Naeni de leleꞌ Ana baliꞌ Galilea neu, ara simbo E no malole.
When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been to the Festival.
46 Basa ma Yesus se lao rakandoo reu seluꞌ sia kambo Kana sia profinsi Galilea. Ana tao nita oe dadꞌi anggor sia naa. Leleꞌ naa, hambu pagau esa sia kota Kapernaum. Ana monen namahedꞌi.
So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made the water into wine. Now there was a certain officer of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.
47 Leleꞌ pagau naa rena oi, Yesus baliꞌ nisiꞌ Galilea mia profinsi Yudea, ma ana lao neu sia Kana de sangga Yesus. Nandaa, ma ana akaꞌ kokoe fo Yesus onda nema tao nahaiꞌ anan. Huu anaꞌ naa naeꞌ a mate ena.
Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Yesus nafadꞌe pagau naa nae, “Mete ma hei nda mita Au tao manadadꞌiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ sa na, hei nda nau mimihere Au sa!”
"Unless you and others see miracles and marvels," said Jesus, "nothing will induce you to believe."
49 Pagau naa nataa nae, “Papa, tulun uma dei. Te hokoꞌ, na, ana ngga mate a ia ena.”
"Sir," pleaded the officer, "come down before my child dies."
50 Basa ma Yesus nafadꞌe neu e nae, “Baliꞌ leo. Te anam naa, masodꞌaꞌ.” Boe ma ana heoꞌ baliꞌ neuꞌ ena, huu ana namahere Yesus oꞌolan naa.
"You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered." He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;
51 Leleꞌ ana baliꞌ, atahori mana tao ues nara rema randaa ro e sia dalaꞌ rae, “Amaꞌ afiꞌ susa fai, huu amaꞌ anan masodꞌaꞌ.”
and he was already on his way down when his servants met him and told him that his son was alive and well.
52 Basa ma natane se nae, “Ana hai eniꞌ a mia liiꞌ hira?” Ara rataa rae, “Eniꞌ a afis a liiꞌ esa, matobꞌiꞌ a onda memaꞌ.”
So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement. "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied, "the fever left him."
53 Basa ma pagau a nasanedꞌa neuꞌ ena nae, anan hai neuꞌ ena, eniꞌ a mia leleꞌ Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Amaꞌ anan masodꞌaꞌ.” Boe ma ana no basa ume isi nara ramahere neu Yesus.
Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered," and he and his whole household became believers.
54 Dadꞌi ia, manadadꞌi-manaseliꞌ ka ruan fo Yesus tao leleꞌ Ana lao hela Yudea, fo neu sia Galilea.
This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming from Judaea into Galilee.
