John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
Tua ahikom Jesus in John sang in nungzui tam koi zaw a, tuiphumna pia hi, ci thu Pharisee te in zazo uh hi, ci Topa in a heak ciang in,
2 (although Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples),
Jesus Ama vateak in tuiphumna pia ngawl hi, ahihang a nungzui te bek in pia hi,
3 he left Judæa, and departed again into Galilee.
Judah ngam nusia in Galilee ngam sung ah paikik uh hi.
4 And he must needs pass through Samaria.
Taciang Jesus sia Samaria ngamsung a kantan ngawl phamaw hi.
5 So he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
Sychar a kici, Samaria ngam khuapi khat, Jacob in a tapa Joseph a piak lo ngam nai na ah Jesus theng hi.
6 and Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
Tua mun ah Jacob tuikhuk om hi. Jesus sia a khualhaw na toi ahikom in, tuikhuk hui ah to hi: tua hun sia sun nai sawm le nai ni pawl a hihi.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
Samaria numei khat tuitoai tu in hongpai a: Jesus in a kung ah, Ka dawn tu hong pia tan, ci hi.
8 For his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.
Banghangziam cile a nungzui te khuapi sung ah an lei tu in pai uh hi.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
Taciang in Samaria numei nu in, nang sia Judah mi na hi a, kei sia Samaria numei ka hihi, bangbang in tui dawn tu hong ngen ni ziam? ci hi. Banghangziam cile Judah te in Samaria te taw ki pawlkhawm ngei ngawl uh hi.
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.
Jesus in a kung ah hibang in ci hi, Pathian i letsong le nangma hong paupui sia kua ci he le te, Ama kung ah, tui dawn tu hongpia tan, ci in ngen zawsap tu ni hi; taciang Ama in nuntakna tui hongpia tu hi, ci in zo hi.
11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou that living water?
Numei nu in, Topa awng, tuitoai natu le bangma na nei bua a, tuikhuk zong thuk mama si hi: koisungpan tua nuntakna tui nei tu ni ziam?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
Nangma in ka pa uh Jacob sang in lianzaw ni ziam? ama in tuikhuk hong pia a, ama tatak ma, a tate le nganno te zong in dawn hi, ci hi.
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
Jesus in a kung ah, A kuamapo hi tui a dawn peuma dangtak kik tu hi:
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.
Numei nu in, Topa awng, dangtak ngawl tu le hi mun ah tuitoai pai kul ngawl tu in, hi tui hong pia tan, ci hi.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Jesus in, Pai in, na pasal sam tan a hi mun ah hongpai tan, ci hi.
17 The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:
Numei nu in, pasal ka nei bua hi, ci in zo hi. Jesus in, Pasal nei ngawl khi hi na ci sia pha hi:
18 for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.
Banghangziam cile pasal nga na nei zo hi; taciang tu in na nei sia zong na pasal hi ngawl hi: tua thu ah a mantak in na son hi, ci hi.
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Numei nu in, Topa awng, nangma sia kamsang ni hi, ci hong he khi hi.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Ka pa te uh in hi mual tung ah biakpia uh hi; taciang note in Jerusalem ah na biak tu uh a hihi, na ci uh hi, ci hi.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father.
Jesus in ama tung ah, Numei awng, hong um tan, Pa sia hi mualtung ah ahizong, Jerusalem ah ahizong, na biak ngawl uh hun hong theng tu hi.
22 Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
Na biak uh sia bang ziam, ci na he bua uh hi: kote in bang bia khu ziam, ci ka he uh hi: banghangziam cile ngupna sia Judah mite kung pan in hongpai hi.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.
Ahihang a mantak in a bia te in, Pa sia thaa le thutak taw a biak tu uh hun hong theng tu hi, tu in tua hun hong theng zo hi: banghangziam cile Pa in tabang in Ama a bia te zong hi.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
Pathian sia Thaa a hihi: taciang a bia peuma in thaa le thutak taw a biak tu uh a hihi, ci hi.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (he that is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.
Numei nu in a kung ah, Christ a kici Messiah sia hongpai tu a: hongpai ciang in, Ama in na theampo hong son tu hi, ci hi.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he].
Jesus in, Na kung ah nang hong paupui sia, tua pa ka hihi, ci hi.
27 And upon this came his disciples; and they marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?
Taciang in a nungzui te hongpai uh a, numei nu taw a ki paupui sia lamdangsa mama uh ahihang: kuama in bang zong ni ziam? a hibale, banghang in numei nu taw ki paupui ni ziam? a ci bua uh hi.
28 So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the people,
Tua numei nu in a tuibeal nusia in, khuasung ah pai a, mite tung ah,
29 Come, see a man, who told me all things that [ever] I did: can this be the Christ?
Ka sep theampo hong son pa sia pai vun a, en vun: hi sia in Christ hi ngawl ziam? ci hi.
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
Tabang in khuasung pan pusuak uh a, Jesus kung ah hongpai hon uh hi.
31 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
Tua laitak in a nungzui te in, Syapa awng, an ne in, ci uh hi.
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not.
Ahihang ama in, Note i heak ngawl an neak tu ka nei hi, ci hi.
33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?
Tua ahikom khatpo in neak tu puak a hi tam? ci in a nungzui te khat le khat ki dong uh hi.
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
Jesus in amate kung ah, Keima hong sawlpa deina bang sep tu le Ama nasep ka zaw tu sia keima an a hihi.
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest.
Tu zo tha li ciang in anlak hun hong theng tu hi, ci hi ngawl nu ziam? dak vun a, lo te en vun; amate ang zo a, anlak hun zo hi, kong ci hi.
36 He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Taciang anla peuma in sep thaman nga tu a, tawntung nuntakna atu in thing nga te kaikhawm tu hi: taciang thaici a poai te le anla te lungdam khawm tu uh hi. (aiōnios g166)
37 For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Khat in thaici poai a, a dang khat in anla hi, a ci sia a thuman a hihi.
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered into their labor.
Na sep ngawl na uh lo sung ah anla tu in kong sawl hi: midang te in seam uh a, taciang midang te sepnasa sung ah note na tum uh hi, ci hi.
39 And from that city many of the Samaritans believed on him because of the word of the woman, who testified, He told me all things that [ever] I did.
Numei nu in, ka sep theampo Ama in hong son hi, ci in son ahikom, Samaria khua sung mi tampi te in Jesus um uh hi.
40 So when the Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them: and he abode there two days.
A kung ah Samaria mite hongpai ciang in, amate taw om tu in kun uh a: tua mun ah ni ni sung taam hi.
41 And many more believed because of his word;
Jesus Ama kam vateak hang in a um mihing hong tam seseam hi;
42 and they said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy speaking: for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world.
Taciang numei nu kung ah, tu in nangma son bek taw hi ngawl in, koma vateak in ka zak uh hu in um khu hi, taciang Ama sia leitung ngum tu Christ a hihi, ci ka he uh hi, ci uh hi.
43 And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee.
Ni ni zawkciang in, Jesus tua mun pan in pusuak a, Galilee ah pai hi.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
Banghangziam cile Jesus ama vateak in, kamsang sia ama ngam ah ki zakta ngawl hi, ci in tettipang hi.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilæans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
Galilee ah hongpai ciang in, Galilee mite in Ama sang uh hi, banghangziam cile Jerusalem poai ah amate pai uh a: a sep theampo mu uh hi.
46 He came therefore again unto Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
Tua ahikom Jesus in tui pan sapittui a suasak na mun, Galilee huam Cana khua ah paikik hi. Tua khua ah ulian khat om a, a tapa Capernaum khua ah a cina hi.
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.
Jesus sia Judah ngam pan in pusuak a, Galilee ah om hi, ci a zak ciang in, a kung ah pai hi, Capernaum khua ah pai in, a tapa damsak tu in ngen hi: banghangziam cile a tapa thi dektak hi.
48 Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise believe.
Jesus in ama kung ah, Musakna te le nalamdang te na mu bua uh le, na um bua uh hi, ci hi.
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
Tua ulian pa in, Topa awng, ka tapa a thi ma hongpai tan, ci hi.
50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spake unto him, and he went his way.
Jesus in ama kung ah, Va pai tan, na tapa nungta hi, ci hi. Tua pa in Jesus kammal um in pai hi.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, saying, that his son lived.
A pai laitak in, a naseam te in dawntua a, na tapa nungta hi, ci son hi.
52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend. They said therefore unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
Ama in a tapa bang hun laitak in damzaw ziam, ci dong hi. A naseam te in sun nai khat pawl in a cisa dam hi, ci uh hi.
53 So the father knew that [it was] at that hour in which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.
Tua hun sia Jesus in, Na tapa nungta hi, a ci lian laitak hi, ci a pa in he hi: taciang ama vateak le a innkuan bup in um uh hi.
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judæa into Galilee.
Hi thu sia Judah ngam pan in Galilee huam ah Jesus a paizawk nalamdang a vawt ni vei na a hihi.
