< John 21 >

1 After that, Jesus showed himself to [us] disciples when we were at Tiberias Lake, [which is another name for Galilee Lake]. This is what happened:
Ze yakilaa imakani ayo uYesu akiika kihenga hangi ku amanyisigwa mu luzi nula Tiberia; iti uu nai wigeelekile mukola,
2 Simon Peter, Thomas who was called {whom [we] called} The Twin, Nathaniel from Cana [town] in Galilee, my older brother and I, and two other disciples were together.
uSimioni Petro ai ukoli palung'wi nu Thomaso nui tangwaa Disimas, Nathanaeli nua ku Galilaya, ana ang'wa Zebedayo ni amanyisigwa angiiza abiili ni ang'wa Yesu.
3 Simon Peter said to us, “[I] am going to [try to] catch some fish.” We said, “We will go with you.” So we went down [to the lake] and got into the boat. But that night we caught nothing.
uSimioni Petro aka atambuila, “Unene nalongola kuvua nsamaki.” Ni enso akamutambuila, Ga nusese, kunankile nu ewe.” Akalongola akanankila mu mashua, kuiti u utiku nuanso wihi shanga ikalija kihi.
4 Early the next morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but we did not know that it was Jesus.
Ni kidau dau nai ukela, uYesu ai wimikile mu nshemba, ni enso i amanyisigwa shanga ai amumanyile kina ai watulaa Yesu.
5 He called out to us, “My friends, you have not [caught] any fish, have you?” We answered, “You are correct, [we have not caught any].”
Uugwa uYesu aka atambuila, 'Ahumba, mukete kihi nikakulya?” ni enso akamusukiilya, “Ishi.”
6 He said to us, “Throw your net out from the right-hand side of the boat! Then you will find some!” We did that, and we caught so many fish [in the net] that we were unable to pull the net into [the boat]!
Aka atambuila, Simyi inyavu nkika a kigoha a mashua, nu nyenye mukulija i ngele.” Ku lulo akasimya i nyavu ao shanga ikahuma kuluta hangi kunsoko a udu nua nsamaki.
7 [But I knew that it was Jesus], [so] I said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” Peter had taken off his cloak [while he was working], but as soon as he heard [me say] “It is the Lord!” he wrapped his cloak around himself and jumped into the water [and swam to shore].
Uugwa uyo u mumanyisigwa naiza uYesu umuloilwe akamutambuila uPetro, “Ingi Mukulu.” Nu ng'wenso uSimioni Petro nai wakija kina ingi Mukulu, akitunga u ng'wenda nuakwe (ndogoelyo shanga ai watulaa witungile iziza), uugwa akigumila mu luzi.
8 The rest of us came [to the shore] in the boat, pulling the net full of fish. We were not far from shore, only about 100 yards/meters.
Awo i amanyisigwa ni angiiza akapembya mu mashua (kuiti shanga ai ukoli kuli ni nshemba, ipikiie migulu igana ling'wi pumiila ku nshemba) ni enso ai atulaa akuluta i nyavu nai yatulaa yizue i nsamaki.
9 When [we] got to the shore, we saw that there was a fire of burning coals there, with a [large] fish on the fire, and [some] buns.
Nai akapika ku nshemba, akihenga moto nua makala pang'wanso migulya akwe ai ikoli nsamaki nu mukate.
10 Jesus said to us, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught!”
uYesu aka atambuila, “Leti ing'wi nia nsamaki naza muvuile itungili iti.”
11 Simon Peter got in [the boat] and dragged the net to the shore. It was full of large fish. There were 153 of them! But in spite of there being so many fish, the net was not torn.
Uugwa uSimioni Petro akanankila nu kukweha inyavu iyo nai atulaa izue insamaki ni nkulu, ngele a nsamaki 153; ga ni iti anga itule aza idu, inyavu iyo shanga ai itamukile.
12 Jesus said to us, “Come and eat some breakfast!” None of us dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because we knew that it was the Lord.
uYesu aka atambuila, “Pembyi mulije ikitikolo.” Kutili ga nung'wi nua amanyisigwa nai ugemile kumukolya, “Uewe wi nyenyu?” Ai alingile kina ai watulaa ingi Mukulu.
13 Jesus took the buns and gave them to us. He did the same with the fish.
uYesu akapembya, akahola u mukate uwo, uugwa akainkiilya, akituma uu nu ku nsamaki izo.
14 That was the third time that Jesus appeared to [us] disciples after [God] caused him to become alive again after he died.
Iyi ai nkua aka taatu kung'wa Yesu kigeeleka kihenga ku amanyisigwa akwe ze yakilaa kiuka kupuma ku ashi.
15 When we had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me more than these [other disciples do]?” Peter said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, like] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for his lambs.”
Ze yakilaa kutula atikolaa, uYesu aka mutambuila uSimioni Petro, “Simioni ngwana wang'wa Yohana itii, undoilwe u nene kukila awa?” uPetro akasukiilya, “Ee, Mukulu, Uewe ulingile kina unene nukuloilwe.” uYesu akamutambuila, “Lisa iana ankolo ane,”
16 Jesus said to him again, “John’s [son] Simon, do you love me?” He replied, “Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said to him, “Take care of [those who belong to] me, [like] [MET] a [shepherd takes care of his] sheep.”
Aka mutambuila nkua aka biili, “Simioni ng'wana wang'wa Yona, itii, undoilwe?” uPetro aka mutambuila, Ee, Mukulu, uewe ulingile kina nukuloilwe, uYesu aka mutambuila, “Dima inkolo niane.”
17 Jesus said to him a third time, “John’s son Simon, am I really dear to you (OR, do you really love me)?” Peter was grieved because Jesus asked him this three times, [and because the third time he changed the question]. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that you are dear to me (OR, that I love you).” Jesus said, “Give to [those who belong to] me [what they need spiritually, as] [MET] [a shepherd provides] food for [his] sheep.
Aka mutambuila hangi nkua a ka taatu, “Simioni, Ng'wana wang'wa Yohana, itii undoilwe?” Nu ng'wenso uPetro ai usigile ikulu iti nai umutambuiie nkua aka taatu, “Itii, U ewe undoilwe?” Nu ng'wenso aka mutambuila, Mukulu uligile yihi, ulingile kina nukuloilwe,” uYesu aka mutambuila, Lisa inkolo niane.
18 Now listen to this carefully: When you were young, you put your clothes on by yourself, and you went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are old, you will stretch out your arms, and someone will fasten them [with a rope] and will lead you to a place where you do not want to [go].”
Huiila, huiila, ku utambuila, nai ukili wimuhumba ai wiziie kutugala i ang'wenda mukola nu kulongola kihi ku loilwe; kuiti nuikatula wi munyampala, ukugoola imikono ako, nu muya uku utugalya i ang'wenda nu ku utwala ku shanga uloilwe kulongola.”
19 Jesus said this to indicate how Peter would die ([violently/on a cross]) in order to honor God. Then Jesus said to him, “Keep being my faithful disciple [until you die].”
uYesu ai uligitilye aya iti kulagiila ingi mpyani kii a nsha ang'wa Petro niize wikamukulya Itunda. Ze yakilaa kutula waligityaa aya, akamutambuila uPetro, “Ntyate.”
20 Peter turned around and saw that I was following them. I was the one who leaned close to Jesus during the [Passover] meal and said, “Lord, who is going to enable your enemies to seize you?”
uPetro akapiluka nu kumihenga u mu manyisigwa uyo naiza uYesu umuloilwe aka atyata- Uyu yuyo nai watulaa wipantamiiye mu kikua kang'wa Yesu itungo nila ndyaa nia mpindi nu kumukolya uYesu. “Mukulu, ingi nyenyu nuika kugumaniilya?”
21 When Peter saw me, he asked, “Lord, what [is going to happen] to him?”
uPetro ai umihengile ni hangi akamukolya uYesu, “Mukulu, Umuntu uyu wikituma ntuni?”
22 Jesus said to him, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ] You be my [faithful] disciple!”
uYesu akamusukiilya, “Anga ndowe wasage kupikiila ni nikapembya, ni lanso likutuile ntuni?” “Ntyate”
23 Some of the other believers heard [a report of] what Jesus had said about me, and [they thought that Jesus meant] that I would not die. But Jesus did not say that I would not die. He said only, “If I want him to remain [alive] until I return, (that is not your concern!/what is that to you?) [RHQ]”
Ku lulo ikani ili likenela mukati a awo i aluna, kina u mumanyisigwa nuanso shanga wikasha. Kuiti uYesu shanga ai umutambuie uPetro kina, u mmanyisigwa uyo shanga wikasha, “Anga ndowe ung'wenso wasage kupikiila ni nikapembya ikutuile ntuni?”
24 [I, John], am the disciple who has seen all these things and I have written them down. My [fellow apostles] and I know that what [I have written] is true.
Uyu yuyo mumanyisigwa nuipumyaa u ukuili nua makani aya, hangi yuyo nai ukilisilye imakani aya, hangi kulingile kina u ukuiili nuakwe ingi tai.
25 Jesus did many other things. If they would [all] be written {If people would write them [all]} down [in detail], I suppose that the whole world would not have enough space [HYP] to contain the books that would be written {that they would write} [about what he did].
Akoli makani idu naiza uYesu ai witumile. Anga kila ling'wi ai likilisigwe, nsigiie kina u unkumbigulu shanga ai uzeekondela kuieka imbugulu naize ikukiliswa.
