John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
Yesu bu kazaba ti Bafalisi bawa ti wukitula ayi wubotika minlonguki miwombo vioka Yowani,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples, )
muaki niandi veka Yesu kasia botika mutu ko vayi minlongukimiandi kaka miba botikanga batu;
3 He left Judæa, and departed again into Galilee.
buna wukatuka mu Yuda, wuvutuka ku Ngalili.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
Kafueti kaka viokila va Samali.
5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
Buna wutula va divula dimosi di Samali bantedilanga Sikali, difikimini ayi nsitu wu Yakobi wowo kavana muanꞌandi Zozefi.
6 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.
Kuna kuba dibulu di nlangu di Yakobi. Yiba nduka-nduka midi, Yesu wuvuanda mu nkuefu wu dibulu bila phokongo yi nzietolo yiba yandi.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
Zimbukila nketo wumosi wu muisi Samali wuyiza ku teka nlangu, Yesu wunkamba: —Wuphana nlangu wunua!
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
Minlonguki miandi miyenda ku divula ku sumba bidia.
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
Vayi nketo beni wunkamba: —Buna buevi ngeyo widi Nyuda wufueti kundombila nlangu wu nua minu nketo wu muisi Samali e? Bila Bayuda ayi basi Samali baba wizananga ko.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
Yesu wumvutudila: —Enati zebi dikaba di Nzambi ayi mutu wulombidi nlangu wu nua; nganu ngeyo wunlombidi nlangu wu nua ayi niandi wuveni nlangu wu luzingu.
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?
Nketo wumvutudila: —A Tata, wusi ko kadi kima kitekila nlangu, ayi dibulu thipula didi. Buna kuevi wulenda bakila nlangu beni wu luzingu e?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?
Nkuluꞌeto Yakobi wutuvana dibulu diadi, niandi veka wunua nlangu wu dibulu diadi va kimosi ayi bana bandi ayi bibulu biandi. Buna wumbanzila ti ngeyo lutidi nkulu eto Yakobi mu buneni e?
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
Yesu wumvutudila: —Woso kuandi mutu wela nua nlangu wawu wela buela mona phuila;
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.
Buna nketo beni wunkamba: —A Tata, wuphana nlangu beni muingi ndibika buela monanga phuilaayi muingi ndibika buela kuiza tekanga nlangu vava!
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Yesu wunkamba: —Yenda tedi bakala diaku mbila, buna wiza yandi vava.
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
Nketo wumvutudila: —Ndisi wukuela ko. Yesu wunkamba: —Buiedika kuandi tubidi ti wisi wukuela ko.
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
Bila babakala batanu baba yaku. Diodi didi yaku buabu kasiꞌandibakala diaku ko. Mambu momo tubidi madi makiedika.
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Nketo wumvutudila: —A tata, mbueni ti widi mbikudi.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Bakulu beto basambila va mongo wawu vayi beno lueta tuba ti ku Yelusalemi kaka kuawu bafueti sambidilanga.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
Yesu wumvutudila: —Nketo, wunguilukila; thangu yeka kuiza yoyi luela sambidila Tata bika va mongo wawu ayi bika ku Yelusalemi.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
Beno lunsambilanga ma lukambulu zaba. Vayi beto tuzebi ma tuetasambila, bila phulusu yitotukila kuidi Bayuda.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Vayi thangu yeka nduka kuiza, ayi yifueni yoyo minsambidi mikiedika miela sambilanga Tata mu Pheve ayi mu kiedika, bila Tatawuntombanga bobo bankunsambidilanga mu phila yoyo.
24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.
Nzambi niandi Pheve, buna bufueni bobo bakunsambila bafueti kunsambidila mu Pheve ayi mu kiedika.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
Nketo wunkamba: —Nzebi ti Mesiya mutu beta tedila Klisto wela kuiza, bu kela kuiza. Buna kela kuiza buna wela kutu sudikisa mambu moso.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he.]
Yesu wumvutudila: —Minu wawu wunyoluka yaku.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
Muna thangu yina, minlonguki miandi mivutuka, misimina bu miyiza kumbata wulembo solula ayi nketo wu muisi Samali. Muaki kadi mutu wumosi kasia kunyuvula ko ti: “mbi wulembo nyuvulanga e?” Bila “mbi wulembo soludilanga yandi e?”
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
Vana vawu nketo wutumbu bika mvunguꞌandi, wuvutuka nsualu ku divula ayi wukamba batu:
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
—Yizanu, lutala mutu wukhembi mambu moso momo ndivanga. Niandi ko Klisto e?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.
Diawu batu batotuka mu divula ayi bayenda ku kaba.
31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.
Mu thangu yina, minlonguki miandi mintatimisa bu minkamba: —Labi, dia!
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.
Vayi Yesu wuba vutudila: —Minu bidia bidi yama biobi beno lukambulu zaba.
33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him [ought] to eat?
Minlonguki miyuvasana bawu na bawu: —Buna mutu wunnatiningi bidia e?
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
Yesu wuba kamba: —Vanga luzolo lu mutu wuthuma ayi manisa kisalu kiandi biawu bidia biama.
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
Beno lutubanga ko ti: zingonda ziya zisiedi buna thangu yi tota bidia mu zitsola yifueni e? Vayi tala minu ndikulukamba ti: luvumbula meso meno, lutala zitsola, makundi mameni yela.
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Mvedi wu makundi wuntambulanga mfutu andi ayi wunkupikanga mu diambudi luzingu lukalumani muingi nkuni ayi mvedi bamona khini va kimosi. (aiōnios g166)
37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Bila vava vamonikini tsundu yi nongo yayi: “Wunkaka niandi wunkunanga; wunkaka niandi wumvelanga”.
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
Ndilutuma luenda vedi makundi mu tsola yi lukambu kueno sala, batu bankaka bawu basala vayi beno luvela makundi ma kisalu kiawu.
39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.
Mu divula dina, basi Samali bawombo bawilukila Yesu mu diambu di kimbangi kitelama nketo wuna bu katuba ti: “wukhembingi mambu moso momo ndivanga.”
40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.
Thangu basi Samali bayiza vaba Yesu, banleba kateka kala yawu. Bilumbu biodi kavuandila yawu.
41 And many more believed because of his own word;
Buna batu bawombo bankaka bawilukila mu diambu di mambu mandi
42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard [him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.
ayi bakamba nketo beni ti: —Buabu beto tuwilukidi, bika sia ti mu diambu di mambu maku wutukembingivayi mu diambu di beto veka tunwilu. Tuzebi bukiedika kuandi ti niandi Mvulusi wu nza.
43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.
Bilumbu biodi biobi bu bivioka, Yesu wubotuka kuna, wuyenda ku Ngalili.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
Bila niandi veka Yesu wutelama kimbangi, bu kakamba ti: Mbikudi kasi nzitusu mu yandi tsi ko.
45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilæans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
Bu katula ku Ngalili, basi Ngalili banyakula bu bamona bikumu biobi kavanga ku Yelusalemi mu thangu nyengo bila bawu mamvawu baba kuendanga ku nyengo.
46 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.
Wuvutukila ku Kana, mu tsi Ngalili, kuna kakitudila nlangu vinu. Vayi kuba Pfumu yimosi yi leta, muisi Kafalinawumi, wuba ayi muanꞌandi wubakala wuba kimbevo
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judæa 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.
Bu kawa ti Yesu wubotukidi mu tsi Yuda; buabu widi mu tsi Ngalili, buna wuyiza kunleba mu diambu kiza belusa muanꞌandi wubakala wuba nduka mu fua.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
Yesu wunkamba: —Enati lukadi mona bidimbu ayi bikumu buna lulendi wilukila ko e?
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
Pfumu beni wunleba: —Pfumu, tuenda nsualu tuamina muanꞌama kafua!
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.
Yesu wumvutudila: —Yenda kuaku, muanꞌaku wulembo zingi! Mutu wuwilukila mambu mankamba Yesu, ayi, wuyenda kuandi.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told [him], saying, Thy son liveth.
Buna wukidi mu nzila, bisadi biandi biyiza kundengana, binkamba ti: “muanꞌaku wulembo zingi.”
52 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.
Wuba yuvula kani thangu mbi muanꞌandi kamonina mbote. Bamvutudila: —Zinzangala zimeni kibedi zono va thangu yitheti ku manima midi.
53 So the father knew that [it was] at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
Dise dizaba ti yawu yina thangu Yesu kankambila ti: “Muanꞌaku wulembo zingi” Buna mutu beni va kimosi ayi batu boso baba mvuandanga ku nzoꞌandi bawilukila.
54 This [is] again the second miracle [that] Jesus did, when he was come out of Judæa into Galilee.
Kioki kumu kimmuadi kivanga Yesu bu kaba mu tsi Yuda mu kuenda ku Ngalili.
