Yohana 21
1 Baada ya mambo hayo Yesu alijidhihirisha tena kwa wanafunzi katika Bahari ya Tiberia; hivi ndivyo alivyojidhihirisha mwenyewe:
After these things, Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. He revealed himself this way.
2 Simon Petro alikuwa pamoja na Thomaso aitwaye Didimas, Nathanaeli wa kana ya Galilaya, wana wa Zebedayo na wanafunzi wengine wawili wa Yesu.
Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together.
3 Simon Petro akawaambia, “Mimi naenda kuvua samaki.” Nao wakamwambia, “Sisi, pia tutaenda nawe.” Wakaenda wakaingia kwenye mashua, lakini usiku huo wote hawakupata chochote.
Simon Peter said to them, "I'm going fishing." They told him, "We are also coming with you." They went out, and entered into the boat. That night, they caught nothing.
4 Na asubuhi kulipokucha, Yesu alisimama ufukweni, nao wanafunzi hawakutambua kuwa alikuwa Yesu.
But when day had already come, Jesus stood on the beach, yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
5 Kisha Yesu akawambia, “Vijana, mna chochote cha kula?” Nao wakamjibu, “Hapana.”
Jesus therefore said to them, "Children, have you anything to eat?" They answered him, "No."
6 Akawambia, “Shusheni wavu upande wa kuume wa mashua, nanyi mtapata kiasi.” Kwa hiyo wakashusha wavu nao hawakuweza kulivuta tena kwa sababu ya wingi wa cha samaki.
He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." They cast it therefore, and now they weren't able to draw it in for the multitude of fish.
7 Basi yule mwanafunzi ambaye Yesu alimpenda akamwambia Petro, “Ni Bwana.” Naye Simon Petro aliposikia kuwa ni Bwana, akajifunga vazi lake (maana hakuwa amelivaa vizuri), kisha akajitupa baharini.
That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It's the Lord." So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat around him (for he was naked), and threw himself into the sea.
8 Wale wanafunzi wengine wakaja kwenye mashua (kwani hawakuwa mbali na pwani, yapata mita mia moja kutoka ufukweni), nao walikuwa wakivuta zile nyavu zilizokuwa zimejaa samaki.
But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from the land, but about one hundred yards away), dragging the net full of fish.
9 Walipofika ufukweni, waliona moto wa mkaa pale na juu yake kulikuwa na samaki pamoja na mkate.
So when they got out on the land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish placed on it, and bread.
10 Yesu akawambia, “Leteni baadhi ya samaki mliovua sasa hivi.”
Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish which you have just caught."
11 Basi Simon Petro akapanda na kuukokota ule wavu uliokuwa umejaa samaki wakubwa, kiasi cha samaki 153; japo walikuwa wengi, ule wavu haukuchanika.
Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fish, one hundred fifty-three; and even though there were so many, the net was not torn.
12 Yesu akawaambia, “Njoni mpate kifungua kinywa.” Hakuna hata mmoja wa wanfunzi aliyethubutu kumwuliza, “Wewe ni nani?” Walijua kuwa alikuwa ni Bwana.
Jesus said to them, "Come and eat breakfast." None of the disciples dared inquire of him, "Who are you?" knowing that it was the Lord.
13 Yesu akaja, akachukua ule mkate, kisha akawapa, akafanya vivyo hivyo na kwa wale samaki.
Then Jesus came and took the bread, gave it to them, and the fish likewise.
14 Hii ilikuwa mara ya tatu kwa Yesu kujidhihirisha kwa wanafunzi wake baada ya kufufuka toka wafu.
This is now the third time that Jesus was revealed to his disciples, after he had risen from the dead.
15 Baada ya kuwa wamefungua kinywa, Yesu akamwambia Simon Petro, “Simon mwana wa Yohana je, wanipenda mimi kuliko hawa?” Petro akajibu, “Ndiyo, Bwana; “Wewe wajua kuwa mimi nakupenda.” Yesu akamwambia, “Lisha wanakondoo wangu.”
So when they had eaten their breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs."
16 Akamwambia mara ya pili, “Simon mwana wa Yona, je, wanipenda?” Petro akamwambia, “Ndiyo, Bwana; wewe wajua kuwa nakupenda. “Yesu akamwambia, “Chunga kondoo wangu.”
He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep."
17 Akamwambia tena mara ya tatu, “Simon, mwana wa Yohana, Je wanipenda?” Naye Petro alihuzunika kwa vile alivyomwambia mara ya tatu, “Je Wewe wanipenda?” Naye akamwambia, “Bwana, unajua yote; unajua kuwa nakupenda.” Yesu akamwambia, Lisha kondoo wangu.
He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" Peter was grieved because he asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" And he said to him, "Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.
18 Amini, amini, nakuambia, ulipokuwa kijana ulizoea kuvaa nguo mwenyewe na kwenda kokote ulikotaka; lakini utakapokuwa mzee, utanyosha mikono yako, na mwingine atakuvalisha nguo na kukupeleka usikotaka kwenda.”
Truly I tell you, when you were young, you dressed yourself, and walked where you wanted to. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you, and carry you where you do not want to go."
19 Yesu alisema haya ili kuonesha ni aina gani ya kifo ambacho Petro angemtukuza Mungu. Baada ya kuwa amesema haya, akamwambia Petro, “Nifuate.”
Now he said this, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. When he had said this, he said to him, "Follow me."
20 Petro aligeuka na kumwona yule mwanafunzi ambaye Yesu alimpenda akawafuata- Huyu ndiye aliyekuwa amajiegemeza kwenye kifua cha Yesu wakati wa chakula cha jioni na kumwuliza, “Bwana, ni nani atakayekusaliti?”
Then Peter, turning around, saw a disciple following. This was the disciple whom Jesus sincerely loved, the one who had also leaned on Jesus' chest at the evening meal and asked, "Lord, who is going to betray You?"
21 Petro alimwona na kisha akamwuliza Yesu, “Bwana, Huyu mtu atafanya nini?”
Peter seeing him, said to Jesus, "Lord, what about this man?"
22 Yesu akamjibu, “Kama nataka abaki mpaka nitakapokuja, hilo linakuhusu nini?” Nifuate.”
Jesus said to him, "If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you? You follow me."
23 Kwa hiyo habari hii ikaenea miongoni mwa wale ndugu, kwamba mwanafunzi huyo hatakufa. Lakini Yesu hakumwambia Petro kuwa, mwanafunzi huyo hafi, “Kama nataka yeye abaki mpaka nitakapokuja yakuhusu nini?”
This saying therefore went out among the brothers, that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, "If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you?"
24 Huyu ndiye mwanafunzi atoaye ushuhuda wa mambo haya, na ndiye aliye andika mambo haya, na tunajua ya kuwa ushuhuda wake ni kweli.
This is the disciple who testifies about these things, and wrote these things. We know that his witness is true.
25 Kuna mambo mengine mengi ambayo Yesu aliyafanya. Kama kila moja lingeandikwa, nadhani kwamba ulimwengu wenyewe usingetosha kuviweka vitabu ambavyo vingeandikwa.
There are also many other things which Jesus did, which if they would all be written, I suppose that even the world itself would not have room for the books that would be written.
