< 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:
Sa imumu igino me ya aka, Yeso makuri ma bezi nice numeme ahira anu utarsa umeme ukure a uraba tibariya. Tibariya, A' ani ma bezi nice numeme.
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.
Simon sa gusi me Bitrus ma rani na toma desa agusi me bi bari. Nataliya uwatu uakana ugalili, vana uzabadi, nan unu tarsa u Yeso warē.
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.
Simon sa agusi me Bitrus ma gun we, “in haza umisi icere” “wagun me, “haru cangi, tidi tarsi we.” wa hā waka ribe uzirigi, da wa miki imumbe vat niyē me.
4 Early the next morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but we did not know that it was Jesus.
Anime ahira sana, Yeso matunno ani kira anu utarsa umeme da wa rusi agi Yeso mani maziba.
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].”
Sa Yeso magu nan in we, “iyani i zoshi in ire imumare baa” wagun me, “muh.”
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]!
Ma gun we, “vingini ikali ishime uwatu utari tinare idi mesi ire.” wa dusa wa reki ikali u watu me da wa guna uhungu koba barki ugbardan icere me.
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].
Unu utarsa u Yeso sa Yeso ma hem in me, magun in Bitrus, “Asere mani” sa simon sa gusa mu saki tirunga(barki mazi myenpere), maka rizo anyimo uraba udangang.
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.
Uye um utarsa u Yeso maribi izirigi me (barki da wa zi pit ba, kasi umiki kanu akure are u hana aseseri). Wa hunuko ikati me gbem in ceri.
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.
Sa wa suri matara, wa iri in ene nura ini cere asereri me, nan uborodi.
10 Jesus said to us, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught!”
Yeso ma gun nwe, “ayeni in ire icere sa ya mesi.”
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.
Simon sa agusi me bitrus ma hā maka hunguko ikali me a matara, gbem ini cere inu a ino kirau ina kuri ucibi in ana taru. Vat unu gbardan icere me de ikali me ya janikaba.
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.
Yeso magun nwe, “aye reni imumare” anyimo anu tarsa umeme ba desa mawu iriba ihu sa madi iki me iri mum, “hō aweni?” wa rusi Aere mani.
13 Jesus took the buns and gave them to us. He did the same with the fish.
Yeso ma ē, ma ziki uborodi me, ma nyiziwe nan icere me.
14 That was the third time that Jesus appeared to [us] disciples after [God] caused him to become alive again after he died.
U taru wa zigino me Yeso ma bezzi nice nu meme ahira anu utarsa umeme sa ma hiri anyimo ani wono.
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.”
Sa wa mara are imu are, Yeso magun in simon desa agusame bitrus, “simon vavna uyohana wa hem in mi anime?” Bitrus magun me, “Asere, u rusa ma hem in hu, “Yeso magun me,” hiram itam in”.
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.”
Ma kuri magun na ukure, “simon vana u yohana wa hem in mi?” bitrus magun me, “Asere urusa ma hem in hu” Yeso magun me, “hiram itam im”.
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.
Ma kuri ma iki me uturu, “simon vana u yohanna wa hem in mi?” bitrus ma kunna iriba barki Yeso ma iko me kataru “agi wa hem in me?” magun me, “Asere” urusa imum vati, irusa ma hem in hu, “Haram itam in.”
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].”
Kadure, kadure in boo shi, datti ya zi cincin, ya rusi u inbizo aceshi i hazi ahira sa i nyara sa ya una, iki witi tari tishi, aye wa sosi shi tirunga wa kuri wa hazin in shi ati hira me sa i nyara uhaza mani.”
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].”
Yeso mabuki anime barki ma bezi Bitrus usandi iwono sa madi wuzi ma nonzo Asere, sa ma buka anime, magun Bitrus tarsam.
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?”
Bitrus magamirka ma iri un utarsa sa Yeos ma hem in mē ma tarsa we. Desa ma hibina abigiri bi' Yeso uganiya ugino me sa magu, “Asere aveni madi gahu?”
21 When Peter saw me, he asked, “Lord, what [is going to happen] to him?”
Sa bitrus ma ira anime magun Yeso, “Asere, nyanini unu ugino madi wu?”
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!”
Yeso magun me, “Ingi in nyara ma cukuno ma bem in zē nyanini mei maweni? Tarsam.”
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]”
Tize ti geme taha ahira ani henu agi, unu utarsa u Yeso ugino me mada wonoba. Yeso dama gun Bitrus, unu utarsa u Yeso ugino mada wononba. A' anime, “ingi magun nan me macukuno in ē nyanini mei maweni?”
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.
Unu uge mani unu utarsa um sa ira imum igeme. Desa ma yetiki, ta hem mi kadure kameme.
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].
Timumum ti rani gbardan sa Yeso ma wuzi, dagi ayetiki vat imumme ka i' inde in boo shi, nan ni unē uda zika me vat imumbe sa a yetiki.
