John 4
1 When therefore the Lord knew how that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
Bafalisi balanyumfweti Yesu lasandulunga bantu bangi kuba beshikwiya ne kubabatisha kupita Yohane,
2 (although Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples),
Yesu uliya kubatishapo muntu naba umo, nsombi beshikwiya bakendi ebalikubatisha.
3 he left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
Yesu mpwalenshiba ncebalikwamba, walafumako kuYudeya ne kubwelela ku Galileya.
4 And he must needs pass through Samaria.
Pabulwendo bwakendi walaciboneti welela kupitila mucishi ca Samaliya.
5 So he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph:
Lino walashika ku munshi waku Samaliya, walikukwiweti Sika, pepi ne kamusena ako Yakobo nkalapa Yosefe mwanendi.
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.
Kopeloko kwalikuba mukalo walikuba waYakobo. Yesu walekala panshi pambali pamukalo uyo, pakwinga walikuba laleme nemusuma. Cindi calikuba muma 12 koloko munshi.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
Mutukashi wa kuSamaliya walesakuteka menshi. Yesu walamusengeti, “kamumpako menshi akunwa.”
8 For his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.
Pacindi ico beshikwiya bakendi balikuba balayi akula cakulya mumunshi.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore saith unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a Samaritan woman? (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
Mutukashi usa walakumbuleti, “Amwe Bayuda, nicani mulasengenga menshi kuli nde Musamaliya?” Pakwinga Bayuda nkabendelana ne Basamaliya.
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 walambeti, “Nkocishi cipo Lesa ncalayandanga kukupa, kayi nkomwinshi lakusengenga menshi akunwa, numwinshi nshinga nulamusenge menshi eshikupa buyumi.”
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?
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Nkambo, muliyawa cakutekesha, kayi mukalo uyu nutali, nomba menshi eshikupa buyumi ayo nimwafunye kupeyo?
12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
Sena amwe mwapita bata bakulukulu balikubako ba Yakobo? uyo walashiya mukalo uyu ngalikunwamo mwine ne bana bendi kayi ne biswika byakendi.”
13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again:
Yesu walakumbuleti, “Muntu uliyense lanunga menshi aya nakanyumfwe inyotwa kayi.
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come all the way hither to draw.
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Nkambo, kamumpako ayo menshi kwambeti ntakanyumfwapo nyotwa nambi ntakesa kayi kuno akuteka menshi.”
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
Yesu walambeti, “Koya ukuwe baibobe mwise,”
17 The woman answered and said unto him, I have no husband. Jesus saith unto her, Thou saidst well, I have no husband:
Mutukashi uyo walambeti, “Ndiyawa mulume.” Yesu walakumbuleti, “Ulambanga cakubinga uliyawa mulume.
18 for thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: this hast thou said truly.
Obe walebwapo kendi kubatuloba basanu, kayi mutuloba ngoli nendi lino nte ibobe, mutukashi walambeti, mulamba cakubinga.”
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
Mutukashi walambeti, “Nkambo, ndacinshibi kwambeti njamwe Mushinshimi.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
Bamashali betu bakulukulu balikupaila Lesa pa mulundu uyu, nsombi amwe Bayuda mukute kwambeti kuYelusalemu ekwelela kupailila.”
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 walamwambileti, “Koshoma ncendambanga.” Cindi nicikashike nceshi mukabule kupailila Bata pa mulundu pano, nambi kuYelusalemu.
22 Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know: for salvation is from the Jews.
Basamaliya mukute kupaila ngo mutenshi, afwe Bayuda tukute kupaila ngotwinshi, pakwinga lupulusho nilukacanike kupitila mu 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.
“Nomba cindi nicikashike, kayi cilashiki kendi, bantu beshikupaila Cancine ncine mpoti bakapaile Bata mu Mushimu nemu cancine ncine. Bata bakute kuyanda bantu beshikumupaila mumushoboyo.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.
Lesa ni Mushimu, neco beshikumupaila bela kumupaila mu Mushimu ne mu Cancine ncine.”
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messiah cometh (which is called Christ): when he is come, he will declare unto us all things.
Mutukashi usa walambeti, “Ndicinsheti Klistu Mupulushi Walaiwa lakesanga, akashika, nakatwambile byonse.”
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he].
Yesu walamwambileti, “Ame ngolambanga nendi njame wopeloyo.”
27 And upon this came his disciples; and they marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why speakest thou with her?
Pacindi copeleco beshikwiya ba Yesu balashika, nomba balakankamana mpobalacana kabandika ne mutukashi. Paliya walamwipusheti, “Ulayandanga cani” Nambi, “Nicani mulabandikinga nendi?”
28 So the woman left her waterpot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,
Mutukashi usa walashiya mungomo wakendi ne kuya mu munshi akwambila bantu,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that [ever] I did: can this be the Christ?
“Katuyani mubone muntu lang'ambili byonse mbyondalensa. Sena ngakali usa Mupulushi Walaiwa?
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
Lino bantu balayoboloka kufuma mumunshi kwisa kuli Yesu.”
31 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
Pacindi copeleco beshikwiya ba Yesu balamusengeti, “Mwiyi, kamulyani.”
32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not.
Nendi walakumbuleti, “Ame nkute cakulya amwe ncomutenshi.”
33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him [aught] to eat?
Popelapo beshikwiya balatatika kwipushana, “Sena kuli naumbi lamuletele cakulya?”
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
Nomba Yesu walambeti, “Cakulya cakame nikwinsa ibyo mbyasuni Lesa walantuma ne kupwisha mulimo wakendi.”
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.
Mukute kwambeti, pakati pakushanga ne kutebula pali myenshi ina nambi ingi, nsombi kamulangishisha bishango bilapi kendi, bilapembelengowa kutebula.
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)
Musebenshi shikutebula latatiki kendi kufola, kayi labunganyanga bisepo kubuymi butapu. Neco shikushanga ne shikutebula nibakakondwe pamo. (aiōnios g166)
37 For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Neco mwambo wakwambeti, “Nabambi bakute kushanga, kayi nabambi bakute kwisa kutebula niwakubinga.”
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not laboured: others have laboured, and ye are entered into their labour.
Ndamutumunga kuya kutebula bishango mumabala alalimwa kendi ne bantu bambi. Amwe mulacaninipo pindu pa ncito yabo.
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.
Basamaliya bangi ba mumunshi musa balamushoma Yesu pacebo cabukamboni bwa mutukashi usa, bwakwambeti, “nendi langambili byonse mbyondalensa.”
40 So when the Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them: and he abode there two days.
Lino Basamaliya mpobalashika kuli Yesu, balamusengeti ekale nabo. Neco walekala kopeloko masuba abili.
41 And many more believed because of his word;
Popelapo bantu bangi balashoma pacebo ca maswi ngobalanyumfwa kuli Yesu.
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.
Usa mutukashu balamwambileti, “Tulashomo lino, tuliya kushoma pacebo ca maswi akobe, nsombi pacebo cakwambeti tulalinyumfwili tobene. Tulenshibi cakubinga kwambeti uyu eMupulushi wa bantu ba pacishi capanshi conse.”
43 And after the two days he went forth from thence into Galilee.
Nomba mpopalapita masuba abili, Yesu walafumako nekuya ku Galileya.
44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.
Nomba Yesu mwine walambeti, “mushinshimi, nkakute kupewa bulemu kucomwabo.”
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.
Mpwalashika kuGalileya, bantu balamutambula, pakwinga balabonapo kendi byonse mbyalensa pakusekelela Pasika ku Yelusalemu pakwinga naboyo balikubako.
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.
Kufumapo Yesu walaya kumunshi wa kana ku Galileya, kusa nkwalasandula menshi kuba waini. Kopeloko kwalikuba mukulene wamfulumende ku Kapelenaumu walikukute mwana mulwashi.
47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea 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.
Mpalanyumfweti Yesu lashiki kuGalileya kufuma kuYudeya, walesa kulyendiye nekumusengeti enga nendi ku Kapelenaumu, kwambeti enga ashilike mwanendi walikuba pepi kufwa.
48 Jesus therefore said unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will in no wise believe.
Yesu walamwambileti, “wabula kubona bingashilo ne bikankamanisho, nkamushomo sobwe.”
49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.
Mukulene wa mfulumende walambeti, “Nkambo, katuyani pamo mwaname nkatanafwa.”
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 walamwambileti, “Koya mwanobe lasenguku kendi.” Muntuyo walashoma maswi a Yesu nekuya kucomwabo.
51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, saying, that his son lived.
Mpwalikuya walakumana ne basebenshi bakendi, nabo balamwambileti, “Mwanenu laba cena.”
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.
Walabepusha cindi ncalaba cena mwanoyo, nabo balambeti, “Watatika kunyumfwa cena lilo munshi muma 1 koloko.”
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.
Lino baishi mwana balanuketi ecindi Yesu mpwalabambileti, “Mwanobe lasenguku.” Neco bonse bamung'anda yakendi balamushoma.
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judaea into Galilee.
Ici calikuba cingashilo cacibili ncalensa ku Kana, wa kuGalileya mpwalafuma ku Yudeya.
