John 2
1 Two days later there was a wedding [celebration] in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. Jesus’ mother was there.
Pantondo gwakwe jashinkupagwa ndowa kunjini ku Kana, shilambo sha Galilaya na anyinabhabho a Yeshu bhaapali,
2 Jesus and [we] his disciples [were also there, because] we had been invited {someone had invited us} also.
a Yeshu na bhaajiganywa bhabho nabhalabhonji bhashinkushemwanga ku ndowajo.
3 When the guests had drunk all the wine [that was there], Jesus’ mother said to him, “The wine is all gone; [can you do something about that]?”
Divai ja ndowa jikamaleje, anyinabhabho a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “Bhangalinginji divai!”
4 Jesus said to her, “Ma’am/Woman, (do not [tell] me [what to do]!/why do you [tell] me [what to do]?) [RHQ] It is not yet time [MTY] [to show] that I am [the Messiah by working miracles].”
A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Mama, uwe shetu nndi? Malanga gangu gakanabheika.”
5 Then Jesus’ mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you!”
Anyinabhabho gubhaabhalanjilenje bhatumishi, “Lyolyowe lishibhannugulilanje, ntendanje.”
6 There were six [empty] stone jars there. The Jews [habitually put water in them] to use for washing things [to make them acceptable to God]. Each jar held (20 to 30 gallons/80 to 120 liters).
Penepo gashinkupagwa matende shita ga maganga, litende limo lya gumbala lulo pabhili eu patatu. Gashinkubhikwa penepo kwa nkubho gwa Bhayaudi gwa tawasha.
7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water!” So they filled the jars to the brim.
A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Nngumbayanje mashi mmatendemo.” Nabhalabhonji gubhagumbeyenje tetete.
8 Then he told them, “Now, ladle out some [of it] and take it (to the head waiter/to the master of ceremonies).” So the servants did that.
Kungai gubhaalugulilenje bhatumishi, “Nnaino ntekanje nkaapanganje bhakulungwa bha kalamu.”
9 (The head waiter/The master of ceremonies) tasted the water, which had now become wine. He did not know where the wine had come from, but the servants who had ladled out the wine knew. [The wine was delicious]! So he called the bridegroom over,
Bhakulungwa bha kalamu bhakapayeje divai jaliji mashi jila, bhangakumanya kujakoposhele, ikabheje bhatumishi bhateshilenje mashi bhamumanyinji. Bhakulungwa bha kalamu bhala gubhanshemile nkulomba,
10 and said to him, “Everyone [else] serves the best wine first. Then when the guests have drunk so much [that they cannot tell the difference], [they serve] the cheap wine. But you [have not done what others do]. You have kept the best wine until now!”
gubhannugulile, “Bhandu bhowe bhanatandubhanga kutekanya divai ja mmbone, bhapapilangaga kwa kaje nitekanyaga jangali jammbone. Ikabheje mmwe nshigoya divai jammbone mpaka nnaino!”
11 That was the first miracle that Jesus did. He did it in Cana [town], in Galilee [district]. By doing it he showed how awesome he is, and as a result, [we] his disciples believed that he [truly was the Messiah].
Sheneshi shilangulo sha ndandubho shibhatendile a Yeshu ku Kana ja Galilaya, gubhalangwiye ukonjelo gwapuya gwabho, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhaakulupalilenje.
12 Jesus then went down to Capernaum [city] with his mother and [younger] brothers and [us] his disciples. We stayed there several days.
Gakapiteje genego, a Yeshu na anyinabhabho na ashaapwabho na bhaajiganywa bhabho, gubhaelelenje kwenda ku Kapalanaumu gubhatemingenenje kweneko mobha gashoko.
13 Later, when it was almost time for the Jewish Passover [celebration], Jesus [and we his disciples] went up to Jerusalem.
Shikukuu sha Bhayaudi sha Pashaka shikabhandishileje, na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhajombweshe kwenda ku Yelushalemu.
14 There, in the Temple [courtyard], he saw some men who were selling cattle, sheep, and pigeons [for sacrifices]. He also saw men who were sitting at tables, [making a big profit as they] gave people [Temple tax] coins in exchange for [their Roman] coins.
v 14 Bhai, gubhaaimenenje bhandu ku Liekalu bhaliushanga ng'ombe na ngondolo na ngunda, bhananji bhatemingenenje na mesha yabhonji bhalitindiganyanga mmbiya.
15 Then Jesus made a whip from some cords and [used it to] chase out the sheep and cattle from the Temple [courtyard]. By overturning their tables he scattered the coins of the men who were exchanging them.
Gubhaeleye nshapilo, gubhaabhinjilenje bhandu bhowe bhakopokanje palanga ku Liekalu na ngondolo na ng'ombe yabhonji, akuno bhalipalaganya mmbiya na pindingula mesha ya bhatindiganya mmbiya,
16 He said to those who were selling doves, “Take these doves away [from here]! Stop [defiling] my Father’s Temple [by] making it a market!”
gubhaabhalanjilenje bhaushangaga ngunda bhala, “Nshoyanje apano yene indui. Nnatendanje nyumba ja Atati pa ushiya indu!”
17 Then [we] disciples remembered that these words had been written {that [someone/David] had written [these words]} [in the Scriptures prophesying what the Messiah would say]: “Others [PRS] will strongly oppose me because I greatly desire that [people respect] your Sacred Tent.”
Bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhakumbushilenje kuti Majandiko ga Ukonjelo ganalugula, “Lilaka lya pinga nyumba jenu jitame ukoto, shilimboteshe.”
18 So [one of] the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “What miracle will you perform to show us that [you have authority from God] to do these things?”
Ashikalongolele bha Bhayaudi gubhaabhushiyenje a Yeshu, “Shintende shilangulo shashi kutulanguya kuti nnapinjikwa kutenda genega?”
19 Jesus replied to them, “If/When you destroy this temple, I will build it again within three days.”
A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Mbomolanje Liekaluli, nne shinilishenje kwa mobha gatatu.”
20 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said, “We have been building this Temple for 46 years [and it is not finished yet]! So (there is no way you will build it within three days!/how will you build it within three days?) [RHQ]”
Bhai, Bhayaudi gubhaabhushiyenje, “Liekaluli pulyashenjilwe yaka makumi nsheshe na shita. Mmwe shanabhuli shinkombole kushenga kwa mobha gatatu?”
21 But when Jesus said that about the temple, [he was really talking about] his own body.
Ikabheje Liekalu libhakungulushilaga a Yeshu, ni shiilu shabho bhayene.
22 [Later], after Jesus had [died and had] become alive again, [we] his disciples remembered the words he had said. As a result, we believed [what had been prophesied in] the Scriptures [about the Messiah becoming alive again], and we believed that what Jesus said [was true].
Bhai, a Yeshu bhakayuyweje, bhaajiganywa bhabho gubhakumbushilenje kuti bhatashiye gene malobhego, gubhagakulupalilenje Majandiko ga Ukonjelo na malobhe gubhatashiye a Yeshu gala.
23 While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover celebration, many people came to believe [that he was the Messiah] because they saw the miracles he was performing.
A Yeshu pubhaaliji ku Yelushalemu kushikukuu sha Pashaka, bhandu bhabhagwinji bhakaibhonanjeje ilangulo ibhaitendile gubhaakulupalilenje.
24 But he did not let them tell him what he should do [as the Messiah], because he knew within himself what they were all [thinking].
Ikabheje a Yeshu bhangakulupalila, pabha bhajimanyi mitima jabhonji.
25 He did not need anyone to tell him what others were thinking, because he already knew what they were [thinking and wanting].
Na bhakapingaga mundu akomelesheye shindu shoshowe ga bhandunji, pabha bhajimanyi mitima jabhonji.
