John 4
1 Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism
Lino aVafalisayi vakapulika imhola sa Yesu kuuti ikwofugha na kuuva na vavulanisivua vinga kukila uYohana umwofughi,
2 (Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),
(neke uYesu jujuo naakava ikwofugha, looli avavulanisivua vaake ve vano valyale vikwofugha),
3 He went out of Judaea into Galilee again.
UYesu ye akagwile kuuti imhola saake sipulikiike, akavuuka mukighavo ikya Yudea akagomoka ku kighavo ikya Galilaya.
4 And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.
Ye vigomoka ku Samalia lukavoneka kuuti kwevule uvufumbue uvwa kukilila mu kighavo ikya Samalia, pe vakakilila isila ijio.
5 So he came to a town of Samaria which was named Sychar, near to the bit of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
Pe vakafika mu likaaja ilya Sikali lino lyale mukighavo ikya Samalia, ilikaaja ilio lilyale piipi nu mughunda ghuno u Yakobo alyampeliile umwanake u Yosefu.
6 Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.
Apuo pwekilyale ikitiimu kya Yakobo. UYesu akikala palubale pa kitiimu ikio kuuti apuume, ulwakuva alyakatiile nu lughendo. Unsiki ughuo ghwale ghwa kavalilo aka ntanda pamwisi.
7 A woman of Samaria came to get water, and Jesus said to her, Give me some water.
Pe akiisa umukijuuva jumomonga uNsamalia kunegha amalenga pa kitimu kila, uYesu akam'buula akati, “Nisuuma amalenga ninyue.”
8 For his disciples had gone to the town to get food.
Ulwakuva avavulanisivu vaake vakava valutile kughula ikyakulia.
9 The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.
Umukijuuva jula uNsamalia akamwamula akati, “Uve uli Muyahudi, une nilinsamalia, lwandaani ghusuuma amalenga kulyune?” Alyajovile enendiki ulwakuva aVayahudi navalyale nu vuhangilanisi na Vasamalia.
10 In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.
UYesu akamwamula akati, “Ghwale ukagulaghe sino uNguluve ilonda kukukupeela na kuuti nene veeni ne juno nikukusuuma amalenga, ngale usumile une, une naale nikukupeela amalenga ghano ghikuvapeela avaanhu uvwumi.”
11 The woman said to him, Sir, you have no vessel and the fountain is deep; from where will you get the living water?
Umukijuuva jula akamwamula uYesu akati, “Ghwe Ntwa uve nuli ni ndoovo ija kuneghela, kyope ikitiimu kitali. Lino ukughaagha kuughi amalenga gha vwumi?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?
Unkuulu ghwitu uYakobo alyatupeliile ikitiimu iki, umwene na vanaake vanywile amalenga agha kitiimu ulim'baha kukila uYakovo?”
13 Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:
UYesu akamwamula akati, “Umuunhu ghweni juno inyua amalenga agha kitimu iki, ikwumilua kange,
15 The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.
Pe umukijuuva jula akansuuma uYesu akati, “Ghwe Ntwa, umeele amalenga aghuo, nileke pikwumilua, kange nileke pikwisa apa kunegha amalenga.”
16 Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.
UYesu akambuula akati, “Lutagha, unkemeele umughosi ghwako, ghwise naghwo apa.”
17 In answer, the woman said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have said rightly, I have no husband:
Umukijuuva jula akamwamula akati, “Une nili nsila mughosi.” UYesu akambuula akati, “Ujovile seseene kuuti, 'ulinsila mughosi,'
18 You have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband: that was truly said.
Ulwakuva ulyatolilue na vaghosi vahano, ghwope juno ghukukala naghwo lino, naghwako. Mu ulu ujovile isa kyang'haani!”
19 The woman said to him, Sir, I see that you are a prophet.
Umukijuuva jula akamwamula akati, “Ghwe Ntwa, nivona uve uli m'bili.
20 Our fathers gave worship on this mountain, but you Jews say that the right place for worship is in Jerusalem.
Avakuulu viitu valyale vikumwimika uNguluve pa kidunda iki, neke umue mwiti ku Yelusalemu kwe kuno kunoghiile kukumwimika uNguluve.”
21 Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Ghwe mukijuva uve, ghwitikaghe sino nijova, ghukwisa unsiki ghuno namukumwimikagha uNguluve uNaata pa kidunda iki nambe ku Yelusalemu.
22 You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.
Umue mu kumwimika uNguluve juno namunkagwile, neke usue tukumwimika uNguluve juno tunkagwile, ulwakuva uNguluve ikuvapokea avaanhu kukilila ku Vayahudi.”
23 But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.
Lino unsiki ghukwisa, kange ghufikile, pano avaanhu vano vikumwitika uNguluve uNhaata mu vwakyanghaani, vikumwimikagha mutwa kulongosivua nu mhepo ghwake na vule vulungika uvwakyang'haani vwake.
24 God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.
UNguluve ghwe mhepo, avaanhu vano vikumwimika umwene, vanoghiile kukumwimika mu ngufu isa mhepo ghwake na mu vwakyang'haani.”
25 The woman said to him, I am certain that the Messiah, who is named Christ, is coming; when he comes he will make all things clear to us.
Umulijuuva jula akamwamula akati, “Nikagwile kuuti uMesiya, (juno ghwe Kilisite). Ikwisa iliva isile, ujuo ilikutuvuula sooni.
26 Jesus said to her, I, who am talking to you, am he.
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Une ne juno nijova nuuve, neene Mesiya.”
27 At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?
Unsiki ughuo avavulanisivua vaake vakagomoka, vakadegha kyongo kuvona uYesu ijova nu mukijuuva, neke nakwealyale juno alyaghelile kukumposia kuuti, “Ghulonda kiki?” nambe kuuti “Kiki ghujova naghwo?”
28 Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,
Umukijuuva jula akaluleka pala pala ulusaaji lwake ulwa malenga akaluta kukikaaja, akavavuula, avanu akati,
29 Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?
“Mwise mulole umuunhu juno ambulile sooni sino nivombile. Asi umuunhu ujuo ndepoonu iiva ghwe Kilisite?”
30 So they went out of the town and came to him.
Avaanu yepulike isio vakaluta kuno kwale uYesu.
31 While this was taking place, the disciples were saying to Jesus, Master, take some food.
Unsiki ughwa pamwisi avavulanisivua vaake vakam'buula uYesu vakati, “Ghwe m'bulanisi ulie ikyakulia.”
32 But he said to them, I have food of which you have no knowledge.
Umwene akavavuula akati, “Une nili ni kyakulia kino umue namukikagwile.”
33 So the disciples said one to another, Did anyone give him food?
Avavulanisivua vaake vakatengula kuposania viiti, 'Asi, kuli muunhu isile vwa Nhaata, juno kukumuletela ikyakulia?”
34 Jesus said, My food is to do the pleasure of him who sent me and to make his work complete.
UYesu akavamula akati, “Ikyakulia kyango une, kwe kuvomba isa vughane vwa Nhaata juno asung'hulile nimale imbombo jaake.
35 You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.
Asi, namwamujova kuuti, “Gasighile ameesi ghahaano kupeta?” Neke une nikuvavuula niiti, lola amaghunda vule ghalivuo pano lukwiline kupeta!
36 He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together. (aiōnios g166)
Ghwope juno ipeta ikwupila uluhombo lwake, umpeto ve vaanhu vano vikwupila uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila, apuo juno ivyala na juno ipeta vooni vivisagha nu lukeelo palikimo. (aiōnios g166)
37 In this the saying is a true one, One does the planting, and another gets in the grain.
Kwelule ulujovo luno luuti, 'Jumonga ivyala ujunge ipeta ulujovo uluo lwa kyang'haani.'
38 I sent you to get in grain which you had no hand in planting: other men did that work, and you take the reward.
Une nivasunghile umue kupeta fino namuhangajikile, Avange vakavombile imbombo inalamu, umue mupeta vwimila imbombo jaave.”
39 Now a number of the people of that town had faith in him because of the woman's witness: He has been talking to me of everything I ever did.
AVasamalia vinga ava mulikaaja lila ilya sikali vakamwitika uYesu ulwakuva valyapuliike sino alyajovile umukijuuva jula kuuti, “Umuunhu ujuo ambulile sooni sino nivombile.”
40 So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.
Pe aVasamalia vala vakafika pano pwale uYesu vakampelepesia kuuti ikale palikimo na veene, pe akikala mu likaaja ilio ifighono fivili.
41 And a great number more of them came to have faith in him because of what he himself said.
Avaanhu vinga fiijo vakamwitika uYesu vwimila ilisio lyake.
42 And they said to the woman, Now we have faith, but not because of your story: we ourselves have given ear to his words, and we are certain that he is truly the Saviour of the world.
Vakam'buula umukijuva jula vakati, “Lino nakwekuti tumwitiike umuunhu uju vwimila si sino utuvulile uve, looli tumwitike ulwakuva tupulike sino ajovile, kange tukagwile kuuti kyang'haani umuunhu uju ghwe mpoki ghwa vaanhu vooni.”
43 And after the two days he went on from there into Galilee.
Ifighono fivili ye fikilile, akavuuka kiluta ku Galilaya.
44 For Jesus himself said that a prophet has no honour in the country of his birth.
UYesu alyoliike kuuti um'bili naikwoghopua na vaanhu ava mu kikaaja kyake.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans took him to their hearts because of the things which they had seen him do in Jerusalem at the feast — they themselves having been there at the feast.
Avaanhu ava ku Galilaya valyamwupiile uYesu, ulwakuva valyasivwene sooni sino alyavombile ku kyimike ikya Pasaka ku Yelusalemu, kukyimike ukuo voope kwevalyale.
46 So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.
UYesu akaluta kange ku kikaaja ikya Kana mu kighavo ikya Galilaya. Kukikaaja ikio kwe kuno alyahambwisie amalenga kuuva luhuuje kwe alyale umulongosi jumonga ughwa selikali ku Kapelnaumu, umulongosi ujuo umwanaake alyale ntamu.
47 When it came to his ears that Jesus had come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him and made a request that he would come down to his son, who was near to death, and make him well.
Ye apulike kuuti uYesu isile kange ku Galilaya kuhuma ku Yudea akaluta kukumpelepesia uYesu kuuti alute ku Kapelenaumu, ansosi umwanaake ulwakuva umwanaake ujuo ghulyale ghukova.
48 Then Jesus said to him, You will not have faith if you do not see signs and wonders.
UYesu akamwamula akati, “Umue namunganyitike kisila kufyagha ifivalilo ni fidegho.
49 The man said, Sir, come down before my boy is dead.
Umulongosi jula akamwamula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa nikukusuuma luvuke unsosie umwanango pano akyale pifua.”
50 And Jesus said, Go in peace; your son is living. The man had faith in the word which Jesus said to him and went away.
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Vujagha, umwanaako asokile.” Akitika amasio gha Yesu akavuuka ivuja.
51 And while he was going down, his servants came to him and said, Your boy is living.
Umulongosi jula ye ali mu sila ivuja, akatang'hana na vavombi vaake vakambuula vakati umwanaako asokile nkafu.
52 So he put a question to them as to the hour when he became better; and they said to him, The disease went from him yesterday at the seventh hour.
Pe akavaposia akati. Asokile unsiki ghuliku, “Aveene vakamwamula vakati, asooka pamihe pamwisi akavalilo aka lekela lubale.”
53 It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.
Uviise ghwa mwana jula akakagula kuuti asooka unsiki ghula ghuno uYesu ajova kuuti, “Umwanaako asookile.” Pe umwene palikimo na vaanhu vooni ava munyumba jaake vakamwitika uYesu.
54 Now this is the second sign which Jesus did after he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Ikidegho ikio kyale kivalilo kya vuvili kino alyavombile uYesu ku Galilaya ye ahumile ku Yudea.
