< John 4 >

1 Àwọn Farisi sì gbọ́ pé, Jesu ni, ó sì ń ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn púpọ̀ ju Johanu lọ.
When therefore the LORD knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Jesu tìkára rẹ̀ kò ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi bí kò ṣe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀,
(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples, )
3 Ó fi Judea sílẹ̀, ó sì tún lọ sí Galili.
He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 Òun sì ní láti kọjá láàrín Samaria.
And he must essentially go through Samaria.
5 Nígbà náà ni ó dé ìlú Samaria kan, tí a ń pè ní Sikari, tí ó súnmọ́ etí ilẹ̀ oko tí Jakọbu ti fi fún Josẹfu, ọmọ rẹ̀.
Then comes he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Kànga Jakọbu sì wà níbẹ̀. Nítorí pé ó rẹ Jesu nítorí ìrìn rẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó jókòó létí kànga, ó sì jẹ́ ìwọ̀n wákàtí kẹfà ọjọ́.
Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7 Obìnrin kan, ará Samaria sì wá láti fà omi, Jesu wí fún un pé ṣe ìwọ yóò fún mi ni omi mu.
There comes a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus says unto her, Give me to drink.
8 Nítorí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ti lọ sí ìlú láti lọ ra oúnjẹ.
(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy food.)
9 Obìnrin ará Samaria náà sọ fún un pé, “Júù ni ìwọ, obìnrin ará Samaria ni èmi. Èétirí tí ìwọ ń béèrè ohun mímu lọ́wọ́ mi?” (Nítorí tí àwọn Júù kì í bá àwọn ará Samaria ṣe pọ̀.)
Then says the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Jesu dáhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ìwọ mọ ẹ̀bùn Ọlọ́run, àti ẹni tí ó wí fún ọ pé, ‘Fún mi ni omi mu’, ìwọ ìbá sì ti béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, òun ìbá ti fi omi ìyè fún ọ.”
Jesus answered and said unto her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that says to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked of him, and he would have given you living water.
11 Obìnrin náà wí fún un pé, “Alàgbà, ìwọ kò ní igbá-ìfami tí ìwọ ó fi fà omi, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kànga náà jì, Níbo ni ìwọ ó ti rí omi ìyè náà?
The woman says unto him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then have you that living water?
12 Ìwọ pọ̀ ju Jakọbu baba wa lọ bí, ẹni tí ó fún wa ní kànga náà, tí òun tìkára rẹ̀ si mu nínú rẹ̀, àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, àti àwọn ẹran ọ̀sìn rẹ̀?”
Are you greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
13 Jesu dáhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá mu nínú omi yìí, òǹgbẹ yóò sì tún gbẹ ẹ́.
Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinks of this water shall thirst again:
14 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá mu nínú omi tí èmi ó fi fún un, òǹgbẹ kì yóò gbẹ ẹ́ mọ́ láé; ṣùgbọ́n omi tí èmi ó fi fún un yóò di kànga omi nínú rẹ̀, tí yóò máa sun si ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
15 Obìnrin náà sì wí fún u pé, “Alàgbà, fún mi ní omi yìí, kí òǹgbẹ kí ó má ṣe gbẹ mí, kí èmi kí ó má sì wá fa omi níbí mọ́.”
The woman says unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come here to draw.
16 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Lọ pe ọkọ rẹ, kí ó sì padà wá sí ìhín yìí.”
Jesus says unto her, Go, call your husband, and come here.
17 Obìnrin náà dáhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Èmi kò ní ọkọ.” Jesu wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ́ dáhùn dáradára pé, èmi kò ní ọkọ:
The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, You have well said, I have no husband:
18 Nítorí tí ìwọ ti ní ọkọ márùn-ún rí, ọkùnrin tí ìwọ sì ní báyìí kì í ṣe ọkọ rẹ. Ohun tí ó ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ sọ tán yìí, òtítọ́ ni.”
For you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband: in that said you truly.
19 Obìnrin náà wí fún un pé, “Alàgbà, mo wòye pé, wòlíì ni ìwọ ń ṣe.
The woman says unto him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Àwọn baba wa sìn lórí òkè yìí; ẹ̀yin sì wí pé, Jerusalẹmu ni ibi tí ó yẹ tí à bá ti máa sìn.”
Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and all of you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Gbà mí gbọ́ obìnrin yìí, àkókò náà ń bọ̀, nígbà tí kì yóò ṣe lórí òkè yìí tàbí ní Jerusalẹmu ni ẹ̀yin ó máa sin Baba.
Jesus says unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when all of you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ẹ̀yin ń sin ohun tí ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀, àwa ń sin ohun tí àwa mọ̀, nítorí ìgbàlà ti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn Júù wá.
All of you worship all of you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 Ṣùgbọ́n àkókò ń bọ̀, ó sì dé tán nísinsin yìí, nígbà tí àwọn olùsìn tòótọ́ yóò máa sin Baba ní ẹ̀mí àti ní òtítọ́, nítorí irú wọn ni Baba ń wá kí ó máa sin òun.
But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit (pneuma) and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.
24 Ẹ̀mí ni Ọlọ́run: àwọn ẹni tí ń sìn ín kò lè ṣe aláìsìn ín ní Ẹ̀mí àti ní òtítọ́.”
God is a Spirit: (pneuma) and they that worship him must worship him in spirit (pneuma) and in truth.
25 Obìnrin náà wí fún un pé, mo mọ̀ pé, “Messia ń bọ̀ wá, tí a ń pè ní Kristi, nígbà tí Òun bá dé, yóò sọ ohun gbogbo fún wa.”
The woman says unto him, I know that Messiah comes, which is called Christ: when he has come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesu sọ ọ́ di mí mọ̀ fún un pé, “Èmi ẹni tí ń bá ọ sọ̀rọ̀ yìí ni Òun.”
Jesus says unto her, I that speak unto you am he.
27 Lákokò yí ni àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ dé, ẹnu sì yà wọ́n pé ó ń bá obìnrin sọ̀rọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó wí pé, “Kí ni ìwọ ń wá?” tàbí “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń bá a sọ̀rọ̀?”
And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seek you? or, Why talk you with her?
28 Nígbà náà ni obìnrin náà fi ládugbó rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ó sì mú ọ̀nà rẹ̀ pọ̀n lọ sí ìlú, ó sì wí fún àwọn ènìyàn pé,
The woman then left her water pot, and went her way into the city, and says to the men,
29 “Ẹ wá wò ọkùnrin kan, ẹni tí ó sọ ohun gbogbo tí mo ti ṣe rí fún mi, èyí ha lè jẹ́ Kristi náà?”
Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n ti ìlú jáde, wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
31 Láàrín èyí, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ń rọ̀ ọ́ wí pé, “Rabbi, jẹun.”
In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
32 Ṣùgbọ́n ó wí fún wọn pé, “Èmi ní oúnjẹ láti jẹ, tí ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀.”
But he said unto them, I have food to eat that all of you know not of.
33 Nítorí náà ni àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ń bi ara wọn lérè wí pé, “Ẹnìkan mú oúnjẹ fún un wá láti jẹ bí?”
Therefore said the disciples one to another, Has any man brought him ought to eat?
34 Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Oúnjẹ mi ni láti ṣe ìfẹ́ ẹni tí ó rán mi, àti láti parí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
Jesus says unto them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Ẹ̀yin kò ha wí pé, ‘Ó ku oṣù mẹ́rin, ìkórè yóò sì dé?’ wò ó, mo wí fún un yín, Ẹ ṣí ojú yín sókè, kí ẹ sì wo oko; nítorí tí wọn ti pọ́n fún ìkórè.
Say not all of you, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 Kódà báyìí, ẹni tí ó ń kórè ń gba owó ọ̀yà rẹ̀, ó si ń kó èso jọ sí ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun, kí ẹni tí ó ń fúnrúgbìn àti ẹni tí ń kórè lè jọ máa yọ̀ pọ̀. (aiōnios g166)
And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit unto life eternal: that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Nítorí nínú èyí ni ọ̀rọ̀ náà fi jẹ́ òtítọ́, ‘Ẹnìkan ni ó fúnrúgbìn, ẹlòmíràn ni ó sì ń kórè jọ.’
And herein is that saying (logos) true, One sows, and another reaps.
38 Mo rán yín lọ kórè ohun tí ẹ kò ṣiṣẹ́ fún. Àwọn ẹlòmíràn ti ṣiṣẹ́, ẹ̀yin sì kórè èrè làálàá wọn.”
I sent you to reap that whereon all of you bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and all of you are entered into their labours.
39 Ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ará Samaria láti ìlú náà wá sì gbà á gbọ́ nítorí ìjẹ́rìí obìnrin náà pé, “Ó sọ gbogbo ohun tí mo ti ṣe fún mi.”
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying (logos) of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
40 Nítorí náà, nígbà tí àwọn ará Samaria wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n rọ̀ ọ́ pé, kí ó wà pẹ̀lú wọn, ó sì dúró fún ọjọ́ méjì.
So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
41 Àwọn ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ sì gbàgbọ́ sí i nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
And many more believed because of his own word; (logos)
42 Wọ́n sì wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Kì í ṣe nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ nìkan ni àwa ṣe gbàgbọ́, nítorí tí àwa tìkára wa ti gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀, àwa sì mọ̀ pé, nítòótọ́ èyí ni Kristi náà, Olùgbàlà aráyé.”
And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
43 Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ méjì ó sì ti ibẹ̀ kúrò, ó lọ sí Galili.
Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
44 Nítorí Jesu tìkára rẹ̀ ti jẹ́rìí wí pé, Wòlíì kì í ní ọlá ní ilẹ̀ òun tìkára rẹ̀.
For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet has no honour in his own country.
45 Nítorí náà nígbà tí ó dé Galili, àwọn ará Galili gbà á, nítorí ti wọ́n ti rí ohun gbogbo tí ó ṣe ní Jerusalẹmu nígbà àjọ ìrékọjá; nítorí àwọn tìkára wọn lọ sí àjọ pẹ̀lú.
Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
46 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Jesu tún wá sí Kana ti Galili, níbi tí ó gbé sọ omi di wáìnì. Ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá kan sì wá, ẹni tí ara ọmọ rẹ̀ kò dá ní Kapernaumu.
So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 Nígbà tí ó gbọ́ pé Jesu ti Judea wá sí Galili, ó tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì ń bẹ̀ ẹ́, kí ó lè sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá kí ó mú ọmọ òun láradá: nítorí tí ó wà ní ojú ikú.
When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.
48 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún un pé, “Bí kò ṣe pé ẹ̀yin bá rí àmì àti iṣẹ́ ìyanu, ẹ̀yin kì yóò gbàgbọ́ láé.”
Then said Jesus unto him, Except all of you see signs and wonders, all of you will not believe.
49 Ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá náà wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá kí ọmọ mi tó kú.”
The nobleman says unto him, Sir, come down before my child die.
50 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Máa bá ọ̀nà rẹ lọ; ọmọ rẹ yóò yè.” Ọkùnrin náà sì gba ọ̀rọ̀ Jesu gbọ́, ó sì kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
Jesus says unto him, Go your way; your son lives. And the man believed the word (logos) that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
51 Bí ó sì ti ń sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ, àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ pàdé rẹ̀, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, ọmọ rẹ ti yè.
And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Your son lives.
52 Nígbà náà ni ó béèrè wákàtí tí ara rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í yá lọ́wọ́ wọn, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Ní àná, ní wákàtí keje ni ibà náà fi í sílẹ̀.”
Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni baba náà mọ̀ pé ní wákàtí kan náà ni, nínú èyí tí Jesu wí fún un pé “Ọmọ rẹ̀ yè.” Òun tìkára rẹ̀ sì gbàgbọ́, àti gbogbo ilé rẹ̀.
So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Your son lives: and himself believed, and his whole house.
54 Èyí ni iṣẹ́ àmì kejì tí Jesu ṣe nígbà tí ó ti Judea jáde wá sí Galili.
This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.
