yōhanaḥ 4
1 yīśuḥ svayaṁ nāmajjayat kēvalaṁ tasya śiṣyā amajjayat kintu yōhanō'dhikaśiṣyān sa karōti majjayati ca,
Now when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard, “Jesus is making and baptizing more disciples than John”
2 phirūśina imāṁ vārttāmaśr̥ṇvan iti prabhuravagatya
(although Jesus Himself was not baptizing, but His disciples),
3 yihūdīyadēśaṁ vihāya puna rgālīlam āgat|
He left Judea and went away into Galilee.
4 tataḥ śōmirōṇapradēśasya madyēna tēna gantavyē sati
Now He needed to go through Samaria;
5 yākūb nijaputrāya yūṣaphē yāṁ bhūmim adadāt tatsamīpasthāyi śōmirōṇapradēśasya sukhār nāmnā vikhyātasya nagarasya sannidhāvupāsthāt|
so He comes to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 tatra yākūbaḥ prahirāsīt; tadā dvitīyayāmavēlāyāṁ jātāyāṁ sa mārgē śramāpannastasya prahēḥ pārśvē upāviśat|
Now Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, being worn out from the journey, sat as He was by the well. It was about 6 p.m.
7 ētarhi kācit śōmirōṇīyā yōṣit tōyōttōlanārtham tatrāgamat
A woman of Samaria comes to draw water. Jesus says to her, “Give me a drink.”
8 tadā śiṣyāḥ khādyadravyāṇi krētuṁ nagaram agacchan|
(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9 yīśuḥ śōmirōṇīyāṁ tāṁ yōṣitam vyāhārṣīt mahyaṁ kiñcit pānīyaṁ pātuṁ dēhi| kintu śōmirōṇīyaiḥ sākaṁ yihūdīyalōkā na vyavāharan tasmāddhētōḥ sākathayat śōmirōṇīyā yōṣitadahaṁ tvaṁ yihūdīyōsi kathaṁ mattaḥ pānīyaṁ pātum icchasi?
So the Samaritan woman says to Him, “How can you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, being a Samaritan woman?” (for Jews do not associate with Samaritans).
10 tatō yīśuravadad īśvarasya yaddānaṁ tatkīdr̥k pānīyaṁ pātuṁ mahyaṁ dēhi ya itthaṁ tvāṁ yācatē sa vā ka iti cēdajñāsyathāstarhi tamayāciṣyathāḥ sa ca tubhyamamr̥taṁ tōyamadāsyat|
Jesus answered and said to her: “If you knew the gift of God, and who is the one saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
11 tadā sā sīmantinī bhāṣitavati, hē mahēccha prahirgambhīrō bhavatō nīrōttōlanapātraṁ nāstī ca tasmāt tadamr̥taṁ kīlālaṁ kutaḥ prāpsyasi?
The woman says to Him: “Sir, you don't even have a bucket, and the well is deep; so where do you get this living water?
12 yōsmabhyam imamandhūṁ dadau, yasya ca parijanā gōmēṣādayaśca sarvvē'sya prahēḥ pānīyaṁ papurētādr̥śō yōsmākaṁ pūrvvapuruṣō yākūb tasmādapi bhavān mahān kiṁ?
You aren't greater than our father Jacob, are you? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock.”
13 tatō yīśurakathayad idaṁ pānīyaṁ saḥ pivati sa punastr̥ṣārttō bhaviṣyati,
Jesus answered and said to her: “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
15 tadā sā vanitākathayat hē mahēccha tarhi mama punaḥ pīpāsā yathā na jāyatē tōyōttōlanāya yathātrāgamanaṁ na bhavati ca tadarthaṁ mahyaṁ tattōyaṁ dēhī|
The woman says to Him, “Sir, give me this water! so that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
16 tatō yīśūravadadyāhi tava patimāhūya sthānē'trāgaccha|
Jesus says to her, “Go, call your husband and come back here.”
17 sā vāmāvadat mama patirnāsti| yīśuravadat mama patirnāstīti vākyaṁ bhadramavōcaḥ|
The woman answered and said, “I don't have a husband.” Jesus says to her: “You stated correctly that you do not have a husband,
18 yatastava pañca patayōbhavan adhunā tu tvayā sārddhaṁ yastiṣṭhati sa tava bharttā na vākyamidaṁ satyamavādiḥ|
because you have had five husbands, and the one you have now is no husband of yours. You spoke the truth there!”
19 tadā sā mahilā gaditavati hē mahēccha bhavān ēkō bhaviṣyadvādīti buddhaṁ mayā|
The woman says to Him: “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 asmākaṁ pitr̥lōkā ētasmin śilōccayē'bhajanta, kintu bhavadbhirucyatē yirūśālam nagarē bhajanayōgyaṁ sthānamāstē|
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, while you (pl) say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21 yīśuravōcat hē yōṣit mama vākyē viśvasihi yadā yūyaṁ kēvalaśailē'smin vā yirūśālam nagarē piturbhajanaṁ na kariṣyadhvē kāla ētādr̥śa āyāti|
Jesus says to her: “Woman, believe me, a time is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 yūyaṁ yaṁ bhajadhvē taṁ na jānītha, kintu vayaṁ yaṁ bhajāmahē taṁ jānīmahē, yatō yihūdīyalōkānāṁ madhyāt paritrāṇaṁ jāyatē|
You [Samaritans] worship what you do not know; we [Jews] worship what we do know, because the salvation is from the Jews.
23 kintu yadā satyabhaktā ātmanā satyarūpēṇa ca piturbhajanaṁ kariṣyantē samaya ētādr̥śa āyāti, varam idānīmapi vidyatē; yata ētādr̥śō bhatkān pitā cēṣṭatē|
But the time is coming, in fact now is, when the genuine worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth. Really, because the Father is looking for such people to worship Him.
24 īśvara ātmā; tatastasya yē bhaktāstaiḥ sa ātmanā satyarūpēṇa ca bhajanīyaḥ|
God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 tadā sā mahilāvādīt khrīṣṭanāmnā vikhyātō'bhiṣiktaḥ puruṣa āgamiṣyatīti jānāmi sa ca sarvvāḥ kathā asmān jñāpayiṣyati|
The woman says to Him: “I know that Messiah is coming (who is called Christ). When He comes He will explain everything to us.”
26 tatō yīśuravadat tvayā sārddhaṁ kathanaṁ karōmi yō'ham ahamēva sa puruṣaḥ|
Jesus says to her, “I am He, the one who is talking with you!”
27 ētasmin samayē śiṣyā āgatya tathā striyā sārddhaṁ tasya kathōpakathanē mahāścaryyam amanyanta tathāpi bhavān kimicchati? yadvā kimartham ētayā sārddhaṁ kathāṁ kathayati? iti kōpi nāpr̥cchat|
At that point His disciples arrived, and they were amazed that He was talking with a woman; yet no one said, “What do you want?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
28 tataḥ paraṁ sā nārī kalaśaṁ sthāpayitvā nagaramadhyaṁ gatvā lōkēbhyōkathāyad
So the woman left her water jar, went her way into the town, and says to the men:
29 ahaṁ yadyat karmmākaravaṁ tatsarvvaṁ mahyamakathayad ētādr̥śaṁ mānavamēkam āgatya paśyata ru kim abhiṣiktō na bhavati?
“Come see a man who told me everything I ever did! Could this be the Messiah?”
30 tatastē nagarād bahirāgatya tātasya samīpam āyan|
So out they went from the town and started toward Him.
31 ētarhi śiṣyāḥ sādhayitvā taṁ vyāhārṣuḥ hē gurō bhavān kiñcid bhūktāṁ|
Now in the meantime the disciples were urging Him saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 tataḥ sōvadad yuṣmābhiryanna jñāyatē tādr̥śaṁ bhakṣyaṁ mamāstē|
But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
33 tadā śiṣyāḥ parasparaṁ praṣṭum ārambhanta, kimasmai kōpi kimapi bhakṣyamānīya dattavān?
So the disciples started saying to one another, “Could someone have brought Him something to eat?”
34 yīśuravōcat matprērakasyābhimatānurūpakaraṇaṁ tasyaiva karmmasiddhikāraṇañca mama bhakṣyaṁ|
Jesus says to them: “My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to complete His work.
35 māsacatuṣṭayē jātē śasyakarttanasamayō bhaviṣyatīti vākyaṁ yuṣmābhiḥ kiṁ nōdyatē? kintvahaṁ vadāmi, śira uttōlya kṣētrāṇi prati nirīkṣya paśyata, idānīṁ karttanayōgyāni śuklavarṇānyabhavan|
Do you not say, ‘There are four months before the harvest comes?’ Well I say, Look! Lift your eyes and observe the fields; they are white for harvest already!
36 yaśchinatti sa vētanaṁ labhatē anantāyuḥsvarūpaṁ śasyaṁ sa gr̥hlāti ca, tēnaiva vaptā chēttā ca yugapad ānandataḥ| (aiōnios g166)
Now he who reaps receives pay and gathers fruit into eternal life, so that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 itthaṁ sati vapatyēkaśchinatyanya iti vacanaṁ siddhyati|
Now the saying, ‘One is the sower and another the reaper,’ is true in this:
38 yatra yūyaṁ na paryyaśrāmyata tādr̥śaṁ śasyaṁ chēttuṁ yuṣmān prairayam anyē janāḥparyyaśrāmyan yūyaṁ tēṣāṁ śragasya phalam alabhadhvam|
I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labors.”
39 yasmin kālē yadyat karmmākārṣaṁ tatsarvvaṁ sa mahyam akathayat tasyā vanitāyā idaṁ sākṣyavākyaṁ śrutvā tannagaranivāsinō bahavaḥ śōmirōṇīyalōkā vyaśvasan|
Now many of the Samaritans from that city believed into Him because of the word of the woman, testifying that “He told me everything I ever did!”
40 tathā ca tasyāntikē samupasthāya svēṣāṁ sannidhau katicid dināni sthātuṁ tasmin vinayam akurvvāna tasmāt sa dinadvayaṁ tatsthānē nyavaṣṭat
So when the Samaritans came to Him they urged Him to stay with them; and He did stay there two days.
41 tatastasyōpadēśēna bahavō'parē viśvasya
Many more believed through His own word,
42 tāṁ yōṣāmavadan kēvalaṁ tava vākyēna pratīma iti na, kintu sa jagatō'bhiṣiktastrātēti tasya kathāṁ śrutvā vayaṁ svayamēvājñāsamahi|
and they kept saying to the woman, “It is not just because of what you said that we believe, because we ourselves have heard Him, and we know that this One is truly the Messiah, the Savior of the world!”
43 svadēśē bhaviṣyadvaktuḥ satkārō nāstīti yadyapi yīśuḥ pramāṇaṁ datvākathayat
So after the two days He departed from there and went on into Galilee.
44 tathāpi divasadvayāt paraṁ sa tasmāt sthānād gālīlaṁ gatavān|
(For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet does not have honor in his own country.)
45 anantaraṁ yē gālīlī liyalōkā utsavē gatā utsavasamayē yirūśalam nagarē tasya sarvvāḥ kriyā apaśyan tē gālīlam āgataṁ tam āgr̥hlan|
So when He came into Galilee the Galileans welcomed Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem, at the festival; for they too had gone to the festival.
46 tataḥ param yīśu ryasmin kānnānagarē jalaṁ drākṣārasam ākarōt tat sthānaṁ punaragāt| tasminnēva samayē kasyacid rājasabhāstārasya putraḥ kapharnāhūmapurī rōgagrasta āsīt|
So Jesus went again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine. Now there was a certain royal official whose son was sick in Capernaum.
47 sa yēhūdīyadēśād yīśō rgālīlāgamanavārttāṁ niśamya tasya samīpaṁ gatvā prārthya vyāhr̥tavān mama putrasya prāyēṇa kāla āsannaḥ bhavān āgatya taṁ svasthaṁ karōtu|
When this man heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.
48 tadā yīśurakathayad āścaryyaṁ karmma citraṁ cihnaṁ ca na dr̥ṣṭā yūyaṁ na pratyēṣyatha|
So Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders you will not believe!”
49 tataḥ sa sabhāsadavadat hē mahēccha mama putrē na mr̥tē bhavānāgacchatu|
The official says to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”
50 yīśustamavadad gaccha tava putrō'jīvīt tadā yīśunōktavākyē sa viśvasya gatavān|
Jesus says to him, “Go; your son lives.” Well the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and off he went.
51 gamanakālē mārgamadhyē dāsāstaṁ sākṣātprāpyāvadan bhavataḥ putrō'jīvīt|
Now while he was still going down his slaves met him and reported saying, “Your son lives!”
52 tataḥ kaṁ kālamārabhya rōgapratīkārārambhō jātā iti pr̥ṣṭē tairuktaṁ hyaḥ sārddhadaṇḍadvayādhikadvitīyayāmē tasya jvaratyāgō'bhavat|
So he inquired of them the hour in which he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”
53 tadā yīśustasmin kṣaṇē prōktavān tava putrō'jīvīt pitā tadbuddhvā saparivārō vyaśvasīt|
So the father knew that it was at the exact hour in which Jesus told him, “Your son lives.” Both he himself and his whole household believed.
54 yihūdīyadēśād āgatya gālīli yīśurētad dvitīyam āścaryyakarmmākarōt|
Again, coming out of Judea into Galilee, Jesus performed this second miraculous sign.
