John 20
1 Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been moved from the entrance.
Mu makya g’olunaku olusooka mu wiiki, Maliyamu Magudaleene n’ajja ku ntaana, ng’obudde tebunnalaba bulungi, n’alaba ejjinja nga liggiddwa ku ntaana.
2 So she ran to tell Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, “They've taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they've put him.”
N’adduka n’agenda eri Simooni Peetero n’eri omuyigirizwa omulala Yesu gwe yayagalanga ennyo n’abagamba nti, “Mukama waffe bamuggyeemu mu ntaana, era simanyi gye bamutadde!”
3 Then Peter and the other disciple went to the tomb.
Awo Peetero n’omuyigirizwa oli omulala ne bafuluma ne balaga ku ntaana.
4 The two of them were running together, but the other disciple ran faster and reached the tomb first.
Bombi ne bagenda nga badduka, omuyigirizwa oli omulala n’ayisa Peetero n’amusooka ku ntaana.
5 He bent down, and looking in he saw the grave-clothes lying there, but he didn't go in.
N’akutama n’alaba engoye za linena nga ziteekeddwa awo, kyokka n’atayingira mu ntaana.
6 Then Simon Peter arrived after him and went right into the tomb. He saw the linen grave-clothes lying there,
Awo ne Simooni Peetero n’atuuka, n’ayingira mu ntaana, n’alaba engoye za linena nga ziteekeddwa awo.
7 and that the cloth that had been on Jesus' head wasn't with the other grave-clothes but had been folded and placed on its own.
N’alaba n’ekitambaala ekyali ku mutwe gwa Yesu. Kyali tekiteekeddwa wamu na ngoye, wabula kyali kizingiddwa era nga kiteekebbwa ku bbali.
8 Then the other disciple who had reached the tomb first went inside as well.
N’omuyigirizwa oli omulala, eyasooka okutuuka ku ntaana n’ayingira. N’alaba era n’akkiriza.
9 He looked around and believed it was true—for up till then they hadn't understood the Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.
Kubanga okutuusiza ddala mu kiseera ekyo baali tebannategeera ekyawandiikibwa nti: Kimugwanira okuzuukira mu bafu.
10 Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.
Awo abayigirizwa ne baddayo ewaabwe eka.
11 But Mary stayed outside the tomb crying, and as she was crying, she bent down and looked into the tomb.
Maliyamu Magudaleene yali ayimiridde wabweru w’entaana ng’akaaba. N’akutama. N’alingiza mu ntaana nga bw’akaaba,
12 She saw two angels in white, one sitting at the head and the other at the foot of where Jesus' body had been lying.
n’alaba bamalayika babiri, nga bali mu ngoye enjeru nga batudde; omu emitwetwe n’omulala emirannamiro w’ekifo omulambo gwa Yesu we gwali guteekeddwa.
13 “Why are you crying?” they asked her. She answered, “Because they've taken my Lord away, and I don't know where they've put him.”
Bamalayika ne bamubuuza nti, “Omukyala, okaabira ki?” N’abaddamu nti, “Kubanga baggyeemu Mukama wange, era simanyi gye bamutadde!”
14 After she'd said this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but she didn't realize it was Jesus.
Bwe yamala okwogera ebyo, n’akyuka n’alaba Yesu ng’ayimiridde, kyokka n’atamanya nti ye Yesu.
15 “Why are you crying?” he asked her. “Who are you looking for?” Assuming he was the gardener, she said to him, “Sir, if you've taken him away, tell me where you've put him so I can go and get him.”
Yesu n’amubuuza nti, “Omukyala okaabira ki? Onoonya ani?” Maliyamu n’alowooza nti, Ye nannyini nnimiro n’amugamba nti, “Ssebo, obanga gw’omuggyeemu, mbuulira gy’omutadde ŋŋende mmuggyeyo.”
16 Jesus said to her, “Mary!” She turned to him and said, “Rabboni,” which means “Teacher” in Hebrew.
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Maliyamu!” Maliyamu n’akyukira Yesu n’amugamba mu Lwebbulaniya nti, “Labooni,” ekitegeeza nti, “Omuyigiriza.”
17 “Don't hold onto me,” Jesus said to her, “for I haven't yet ascended to my Father; but go to my brothers and tell them I am ascending to my Father and your Father, my God and your God.”
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Tonkwatako kubanga sinnagenda eri Kitange. Naye genda eri baganda bange obagambe nti, ŋŋenda eri Kitange era Kitammwe, Katonda wange era Katonda wammwe.”
18 So Mary Magdalene went and told the disciples, “I've seen the Lord,” and she explained to them what he had said to her.
Maliyamu Magudaleene n’agenda n’abuulira abayigirizwa nga bw’alabye Mukama waffe, era n’abategeeza by’amugambye.
19 That evening, on the first day of the week, as the disciples were meeting together behind locked doors because they were afraid of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “May you have peace.”
Akawungeezi ako abayigirizwa baali bakuŋŋaanidde mu kisenge ng’enzigi nsibe olw’okutya Abayudaaya, Yesu n’ajja n’ayimirira wakati mu bo. N’abagamba nti, “Emirembe gibe mu mmwe.”
20 After this greeting he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were full of joy to see the Lord.
Bwe yamala okwogera ebyo n’abalaga ebibatu bye n’embiriizi ze. Abayigirizwa bwe baalaba Mukama ne basanyuka nnyo.
21 “May you have peace!” Jesus told them again. “In the same way the Father sent me, so I'm sending you.”
N’addamu nti, “Emirembe gibe mu mmwe. Nga Kitange bwe yantuma, nange bwe mbatuma mmwe.”
22 Saying this, he breathed on them, and told them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.
Bwe yamala okwogera ebyo n’abassiza omukka, n’abagamba nti, “Mufune Mwoyo Mutukuvu.
23 If you forgive anyone's sins, they are forgiven; if you hold them unforgiven, unforgiven they remain.”
Buli muntu gwe munaasonyiwanga ebibi bye anaabanga asonyiyiddwa. Abo be munaagaananga okusonyiwa, banaabanga tebasonyiyiddwa.”
24 One of the twelve disciples, Thomas, who was called the Twin, wasn't with them when Jesus came.
Naye Tomasi, omu ku bayigirizwa ekkumi n’ababiri, ayitibwa Didumo, teyali na banne Yesu bwe yajja.
25 So the other disciples told him, “We've seen the Lord.” But he replied, “I won't believe it unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger in them, and put my hand in his side.”
Bayigirizwa banne ne bamugamba nti, “Tulabye Mukama waffe.” Ye n’abagamba nti, “Okuggyako nga ndabye enkovu ez’emisumaali mu bibatu bye, ne nteeka olunwe lwange mu nkovu ezo era ne nteeka ekibatu kyange mu mbiriizi ze, sigenda kukkiriza.”
26 One week later the disciples were together inside the house; and Thomas was with them. The doors were closed, and Jesus came and stood among them. “May you have peace!” he said.
Bwe waayitawo ennaku munaana, abayigirizwa ba Yesu, era bali mu nnyumba, Tomasi yali nabo. Yesu n’ajja, enzigi nga nsibe, n’ayimirira wakati mu bo n’abagamba nti, “Emirembe gibe mu mmwe,”
27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand in the wound on my side. Stop doubting and trust in me!”
Awo n’agamba Tomasi nti, “Kale teeka engalo zo wano, laba ebibatu byange. Teeka ekibatu kyo mu mbiriizi zange. Lekeraawo okuba atakkiriza, naye kkiriza.”
28 “My Lord and my God!” Thomas responded.
Tomasi n’amuddamu nti, “Ggwe Mukama wange era Katonda wange.”
29 “You trust in me because you've seen me,” Jesus told him. “Happy are those that haven't seen me yet still trust in me.”
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Okkirizza kubanga ondabye. Balina omukisa abakkiriza nga tebaliiko kye balabye.”
30 Jesus did many other miraculous signs while he was with his disciples that are not recorded in this book.
Yesu yakola ebyamagero ebirala bingi ng’abayigirizwa be balaba, ebitaawandiikibwa mu kitabo kino.
31 But these are written down here so that you may trust that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by trusting in him as he is you will have life.
Naye bino byawandiikibwa mulyoke mukkirize nti Yesu ye Kristo Omwana wa Katonda era olw’okumukkiriza mulyoke mube n’obulamu mu linnya lye.
