John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
Yesu bu kazaba ti Bafalisi bawa ti wukitula ayi wubotika minlonguki miwombo vioka Yowani,
2 (although 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 pass through Samaria.
Kafueti kaka viokila va Samali.
5 So he cometh to a city of Samaria, 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 and Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus by the well. 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 into the city to buy food.
Minlonguki miandi miyenda ku divula ku sumba bidia.
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.)
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: 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, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, 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, Every one that 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 all the way 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 unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, 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: this hast thou said 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 neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye 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 that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from 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 truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.
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 in spirit and truth.
Nzambi niandi Pheve, buna bufueni bobo bakunsambila bafueti kunsambidila mu Pheve ayi mu kiedika.
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.
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 they marvelled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest 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 So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the people,
Vana vawu nketo wutumbu bika mvunguꞌandi, wuvutuka nsualu ku divula ayi wukamba batu:
29 Come, see a man, who told me all things that [ever] I did: can this be the Christ?
—Yizanu, lutala mutu wukhembi mambu moso momo ndivanga. Niandi ko Klisto e?
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
Diawu batu batotuka mu divula ayi bayenda ku kaba.
31 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, 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.
Vayi Yesu wuba vutudila: —Minu bidia bidi yama biobi beno lukambulu zaba.
33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] 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 accomplish 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 the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto 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 He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that 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 For herein is the 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 have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered into their labor.
Ndilutuma luenda vedi makundi mu tsola yi lukambu kueno sala, batu bankaka bawu basala vayi beno luvela makundi ma kisalu kiawu.
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.
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 came unto him, they besought him to abide 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 word;
Buna batu bawombo bankaka bawilukila mu diambu di mambu mandi
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.
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 And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee.
Bilumbu biodi biobi bu bivioka, Yesu wubotuka kuna, wuyenda ku Ngalili.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
Bila niandi veka Yesu wutelama kimbangi, bu kakamba ti: Mbikudi kasi nzitusu mu yandi tsi ko.
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.
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 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.
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 Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise 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. The man believed the word that Jesus spake 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, saying, that his son lived.
Buna wukidi mu nzila, bisadi biandi biyiza kundengana, binkamba ti: “muanꞌaku wulembo zingi.”
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.
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 that hour in 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 sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judæa into Galilee.
Kioki kumu kimmuadi kivanga Yesu bu kaba mu tsi Yuda mu kuenda ku Ngalili.
