Johani 20
1 Mangwanani, pazuva rokutanga revhiki, kuchakasviba, Maria Magadharena akaenda kuguva akaona kuti ibwe rakanga rabviswa pamukova.
Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance.
2 Saka akauya achimhanya kuna Simoni Petro nokuno mumwe mudzidzi, uya aidikanwa naJesu, akati, “Vabudisa Ishe muguva, uye hatizivi pavamuisa!”
So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb,” she said, “and we do not know where they have put Him!”
3 Saka Petro nomumwe mudzidzi vakabuda vakaenda kuguva.
Then Peter and the other disciple set out for the tomb.
4 Vose vari vaviri vaimhanya, asi mumwe mudzidzi akamhanya kukunda Petro akatanga kusvika paguva.
The two were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.
5 Akakotama akatarira mukati pamicheka yakanga iri pasi asi haana kupinda.
He bent down and looked in at the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.
6 Ipapo Simoni Petro, uyo akanga ari shure kwake, akasvikopinda muguva. Akaona micheka iri pasi,
Simon Peter arrived just after him. He entered the tomb and saw the linen cloths lying there.
7 pamwe chete nomucheka wokuvigwa nawo wakanga uri mumusoro waJesu. Mucheka uyu wakanga wakapetwa uri woga, wakaparadzaniswa nomumwe mucheka.
The cloth that had been around Jesus’ head was rolled up, lying separate from the linen cloths.
8 Pakupedzisira mumwe mudzidzi, uya akanga atanga kusvika paguva akapindawo. Akaona akatenda.
Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went in. And he saw and believed.
9 (Vakanga vasati vanzwisisa kubva muRugwaro kuti Jesu aifanira kumuka kubva kuvakafa.)
For they still did not understand from the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
10 Ipapo vadzidzi vakadzokera kumusha kwavo,
Then the disciples returned to their homes.
11 asi Maria akaramba amire kunze kweguva achichema. Achiri kuchema kudai, akakotama kuti atarire muguva
But Mary stood outside the tomb weeping. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb,
12 akaona vatumwa vaviri vane nguo chena, vagere pakambenge pane mutumbi waJesu, mumwe kumusoro uye mumwe kumakumbo.
and she saw two angels in white sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.
13 Vakamubvunza vakati, “Mai, munochemeiko?” Akati, “Vabvisa Ishe wangu, uye handizivi kuti vamuisepi.”
“Woman, why are you weeping?” they asked. “Because they have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I do not know where they have put Him.”
14 Ipapo akatendeuka akatarira shure akaona Jesu amirepo, asi haana kuziva kuti akanga ari Jesu.
When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there; but she did not recognize that it was Jesus.
15 Akati, “Mai, munochemeiko? Munotsvaka aniko?” Maria achifunga kuti aiva muchengeti webindu, akati, “Ishe, kana mamutora, ndiudzei henyu kwamamuisa ndigomutora.”
“Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”
16 Jesu akati kwaari, “Maria.” Akatendeukira kwaari akadanidzira nechiHebheru achiti, “Rabhi!” (kureva kuti Mudzidzisi).
Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).
17 Jesu akati kwaari, “Usandibata, nokuti handisati ndadzokera kuna Baba. Asi enda kuhama dzangu undovaudza kuti, ‘Ndiri kudzokera kuna Baba vangu naBaba venyu, kuna Mwari wangu, naMwari wenyu.’”
“Do not cling to Me,” Jesus said, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go and tell My brothers, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your God.’”
18 Maria Magadharena akaenda kuvadzidzi akandovaudza kuti, “Ndaona Ishe!” Uye akavaudza kuti Jesu akanga areva zvinhu izvi kwaari.
Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them what He had said to her.
19 Madekwana ezuva rokutanga revhiki, vadzidzi pavakanga vari pamwe chete, mikova yakazarirwa nokuda kwokutya vaJudha, Jesu akauya akasvikomira pakati pavo akati, “Rugare ngaruve kwamuri!”
It was the first day of the week, and that very evening, while the disciples were together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them. “Peace be with you!” He said to them.
20 Shure kwokutaura izvi, akavaratidza maoko ake naparutivi pake. Vadzidzi vakafara zvikuru pavakaona Ishe.
After He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.
21 Jesu akatizve kwavari, “Rugare ngaruve kwamuri! Sezvo Baba vakandituma, ndiri kukutumaiwo.”
Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, so also I am sending you.”
22 Uye adaro akavafemera akati, “Gamuchirai Mweya Mutsvene.
When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
23 Kana muchiregerera ani zvake zvivi zvake, zvicharegererwa; kana musingavaregereri, havaregererwi.”
If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you withhold forgiveness from anyone, it is withheld.”
24 Zvino Tomasi (ainzi Dhidhimo), mumwe wavane gumi navaviri, akanga asiri pamwe chete navamwe vadzidzi, Jesu paakauya.
Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.
25 Saka vamwe vadzidzi vakamuudza kuti, “Taona Ishe!” Asi iye akati kwavari, “Kunze kwokunge ndaona mavanga ezvipikiri mumaoko ake uye ndikaisa munwe wangu pakanga pane zvipikiri, uye ndikaisa ruoko rwangu parutivi rwake, handingatendi.”
So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he replied, “Unless I see the nail marks in His hands, and put my finger where the nails have been, and put my hand into His side, I will never believe.”
26 Vhiki yakati yapera, vadzidzi vake vakanga vari mumba zvakare, uye Tomasi akanga anavo. Kunyange zvazvo mikova yakanga yakapfigwa, Jesu akauya akamira pakati pavo akati, “Rugare ngaruve kwamuri!”
Eight days later, His disciples were once again inside with the doors locked, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
27 Ipapo akati kuna Tomasi, “Isa munwe wako pano; ona maoko angu. Tambanudza ruoko rwako uise parutivi rwangu. Rega kukahadzika uye utende.”
Then Jesus said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and look at My hands. Reach out your hand and put it into My side. Stop doubting and believe.”
28 Tomasi akati kwaari, “Ishe wangu naMwari wangu!”
Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Ipapo Jesu akati kwaari, “Nokuda kwokuti wandiona, zvino watenda; vakaropafadzwa avo vasina kuona asi vakatenda.”
Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
30 Jesu akaita zvimwe zviratidzo zvizhinji pamberi pavadzidzi vake, zvisina kunyorwa mubhuku iri.
Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.
31 Asi izvi zvakanyorwa kuti mugotenda kuti Jesu ndiye Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari, uye kuti kana mukatenda muve noupenyu muzita rake.
But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.
