John 4
1 Now, when the Master heard that the Pharisees had been told that he was making and baptizing more disciples than John
KAUN lao kotin mani, me Parijar akan ronadar, me Iejuj kin wiada tounpadak kan o paptaij toto jan Ioanej,
2 (Though it was not Jesus himself, but his disciples, who baptized),
Ari, pwe jota me pein Iejuj kotin paptaij, japwilim a tounpadak kan ta,
3 he left Judea, and set out again for Galilee.
Ap kotila jan Iudaa, kotin purelan Kalilaa.
4 He had to pass through Samaria,
A a kotin weid nan wein Jamaria.
5 and, on his way, he came to a Samaritan town called Shechem, near the plot of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
I ap kotilan kanim en Jamaria eu, me adaneki Jikar, koren ion jap, me Iakop ki on na ol Iojep.
6 Jacob’s Spring was there, and Jesus, being tired after his journey, sat down beside the spring, just as he was. It was then about mid-day.
lei waja en Iakop a parer eu mia. Iejuj ari nirekila a japajapal, ap kaipokedi pon parer o, ari mepukat wiauier impan auer kawonu.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water; and Jesus said to her — “Give me some to drink,”
A li en Jamaria amen ap kodon idip pil ia. Iejuj kotin majani on i: Kido lim ai kij pil en!
8 For his disciples had gone into the town to buy food.
Pwe japwilim a tounpadak kan ko on nan kanim, pan netiada jak arail.
9 “How is it,” replied the Samaritan woman, “that you who are a Jew ask for water from a Samaritan woman like me?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans).
Li en Jamaria ap indan i: Iaduen, komui kijan men Juj, ap poeki pil re i? Pwe nai li en Jamaria amen, pwe Juj akan jota kin waroki on men Jamaria.
10 “If you knew of the gift of God,” replied Jesus, “and who it is that is saying to you ‘Give me some water,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you ‘living water’.”
Iejuj kotin japen majani on i: Ma koe aja duen kijakij jan ren Kot o ij i, me indan uk: Kido lim ai kij pil en, koe pan poeki re a, a ap pan ki on uk pil memaur.
11 “You have no bucket, Sir, and the well is deep,” she said; “where did you get that ‘living water?’
Li o indan i: Main, jota japwilim omui men idip pil, a parer me lol, a ia waja, kom pan idip jan ia pil memaur?
12 Surely you are not greater than our ancestor Jacob who gave us the well, and used to drink from it himself, and his sons, and his cattle!”
De komui lapa jan jam at Iakop, me kotiki on kit er parer en, o pein nima jan, o na kan, o na man akan?
13 “All who drink of this water,” replied Jesus, “will be thirsty again;
Iejuj kotin japen majani on i: Karoj, me nima jan pil wet, pan pur on men nim pilada.
15 “Give me this water, Sir,” said the woman, “so that I may not be thirsty, nor have to come all the way here to draw water.”
Li o ap indai on i: Main, kom kotiki on ia kijan pil o, pwe I en jolar men nim pil, o jolar kodo o idipa jan met!
16 “Go and call your husband,” said Jesus, “and then come back.”
Iejuj kotin majani on i: Kowei ukedo om paud!
17 “I have no husband,” answered the woman. “You are right in saying ‘I have no husband,’” replied Jesus,
Li o japen indada: Jota ai paud. Iejuj kotin majani on i: Melel om lokaia: Jota ai paud.
18 “For you have had five husbands, and the man with whom you are now living is not your husband; in saying that, you have spoken the truth.”
Pwe om paud me limen maj kokodo, a kaidik om paud, me koe paudeki met; iei melel, me koe indada.
19 “I see, Sir, that you are a Prophet!” exclaimed the woman.
Li o indan i: Main, i ap ajaer, me jaukop amen komui.
20 “It was on this mountain that our ancestors worshiped; and yet you Jews say that the proper place for worship is in Jerusalem.”
Jam at akan kaukaudok pon nana wet, a komail kin inda dene Ierujalem eta waja me aramaj en kaudok ia.
21 “Believe me,” replied Jesus, “a time is coming when it will be neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem that you will worship the Father.
Iejuj kotin majani on i: Li, kamelele ia, a korendor anjaun omail pan jolar kaukaudok on Jam pon nana wet, pil jota Ierujalem.
22 You Samaritans do not know what you worship; we know what we worship, for Salvation comes from the Jews.
Komail kin jaja, me komail kin kaukaudok on. A kit aja, me je kaukaudok on, pwe kamaur pwarado jan ren men Juj akan.
23 But a time is coming, indeed it is already here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father spiritually and truly; for such are the worshipers that the Father desires.
A anjau korendor, ari a leler, me toun kaudok melel akan pan kaudok on Jam ni Nen o melel, pwe iei ta jon en toun kaudok kan, me Jam pil kotin kupura.
24 God is Spirit; and those who worship him must worship spiritually and truly.”
Nen eu Kot, a me kaudok on i, ren kaudokki Nen o melel.
25 “I know,” answered the woman, “that the Messiah, who is called the Christ, is coming; when once he has come, he will tell us everything.”
Li indai on i: I aja, me Mejiaj pan kotido, me maraneki Krijtuj. I lao kotido, a pan katiti on kit meakaroj.
26 “I am he,” Jesus said to her, “I who am speaking to you.”
Iejuj kotin majani on i: Nai i, me lokelokaia on uk.
27 At this moment his disciples came up, and were surprised to find him talking with a woman; but none of them asked ‘What do you want?’ or ‘Why are you talking with her?’
A japwilim a tounpadak kan ap purodo, puriamui a majan on li amen. Ari jo, jota me indada: Da me re kotin kainoma, de da me re kotin mamajani on i?
28 So the woman, leaving her pitcher, went back to the town, and said to the people:
Li o ap pwilikidi potel en pil o, ap koieilan kanim o kajoi on aramaj akan:
29 “Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?”
Kodo, kilan aramaj amen, me kajale on ia karoj, me i wiadar, ma i kaidin Krijtuj?
30 And the people left the town and went to see Jesus.
Rap koieila jan nan kanim o potodo re a.
31 Meanwhile the disciples kept saying to him: “Take something to eat, Rabbi.”
Ni anjau ota japwilim a tounpadak kan poeki re a, potoan on: Rapi, re kotin konot!
32 “I have food to eat,” he answered, “of which you know nothing.”
A kotin majani on irail: Kan ai kijin mana mia, me komail jaja.
33 “Can any one have brought him anything to eat?” the disciples said to one another.
Tounpadak kan ap kajokajoi nan pun arail: Muein amen wa don i jak.
34 “My food,” replied Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me, and to complete his work.
Iejuj kotin majani on irail: Wiawia kupur en me kadar ia do, o kapwaiada japwilim a dodok, iei kan ai,
35 Do not you say that it still wants four months to harvest? Why, look up, and see how white the fields are for harvest!
Komail jota kin indada: Jaunipon paieu mi mon rak? Kilan, I indai on komail, jarada, kilan matuel o pwe a malar.
36 Already the reaper is receiving wages and gathering in sheaves for Immortal Life, so that sower and reaper rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
Me dolun kin pwaipwai o nanak on maur joutuk, pwe ira karoj, me kamorok o me dolun en peren pena. (aiōnios g166)
37 For here the proverb holds good — ‘One sows, another reaps.’
Pwe ni mepukat kajoi o pwaidar: Amen me kin kamo kamorok, a amen me kin dolun.
38 I have sent you to reap that on which you have spent no labour; others have laboured, and you have entered upon the results of their labour.”
I kadar komail wei, en dolun pena, me komail jo doke, Akai me dodoker, a komail me id aneki arail rak.
39 Many from that town came to believe in Jesus — Samaritans though they were — on account of the woman’s statement — ‘He has told me everything that I have done.’
Men Jamaria toto kijan kanim o pojonla i pweki kajoi en li o, me kadede: A kotin kajale on ia karoj, me i wiadar.
40 And, when these Samaritans had come to Jesus, they begged him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days.
Men Jamaria kan lao pokon don i, rap poeki re a, en kotikot re’rail. I ari kotikot ia pon ria pon.
41 But far more came to believe in him on account of what he said himself,
A me toto me pojonlar pweki a majan,
42 and they said to the woman: “It is no longer because of what you say that we believe in him, for we have heard him ourselves and know that he really is the Saviour of the world.”
Ap indan li o: Je pojon kila kaidin om kajoi, pwe je pein ronadar o weweki, me i melel Jaunkamaur pan jappa.
43 After these two days Jesus went on to Galilee;
Murin ran riau Iejuj kotila ian waia o, kotilan Kalilaa.
44 for he himself declared that ‘a Prophet is not honoured in his own country.’
Pwe pein Iejuj kotin kadedeki, me jaukop amen jota kin mau nan udan japwe.
45 When he entered Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, for they had seen all that he did at Jerusalem during the Festival, at which they also had been present.
A lao kotilan Kalilaa, men Kalilaa me kajamo i, pwe re ian kilaner me a kotin wiadar Ierujalem ni kamadip o, pwe re toun ian kamadip.
46 So Jesus came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. Now there was one of the King’s officers whose son was lying ill at Capernaum.
Iejuj ari kotin pure don Kana nan Kalilaa, waja a kotin kapikila pil wain. A monjap amen mia, me na ol jomau nan Kapernaum.
47 When this man heard that Jesus had returned from Judea to Galilee, he went to him, and begged him to come down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.
A lao ronadar, me Iejuj koti don Kalilaa jan Iudaa, ap poto don re a, poeki i en kotidi, kakelada na ol, pwe a koren ion mela.
48 Jesus answered: “Unless you all see signs and wonders, you will not believe.”
Iejuj ap kotin majani on i: Ma komail jo kilan kilel o manaman akan komail jota pan pojon.
49 “Sir,” said the officer, “come down before my child dies.” And Jesus answered: “Go, your son is living.”
Monjap potoan on i: Main kotidi mon nai jeri mela!
50 The man believed what Jesus said to him, and went;
Iejuj kotin majani on i: U kowei, noum ol memaur. Ari aramaj o pojon majan o, me Iejuj kotin majani on i ap koieila.
51 and, while he was on his way down, his servants met him, and told him that his child was living.
A ni a kodila, a ladu kan me tu on i, kajoi on i, me na putak mauredar.
52 So he asked them at what time the boy began to get better. “It was yesterday, about one o’clock,” they said, “that the fever left him.”
I ap kalelapok re’rail: Anjau da me a pikikidi maur? Irail indan i: Aio ni auer kaiju karakar ko janer.
53 By this the father knew that it was at the very time when Jesus had said to him ‘Your son is living’; and he himself, with all his household, believed in Jesus.
Jam o ap ajadar, me i anjau, me Iejuj kotin majani on i: Noum ol memaur. I ari o na kan me pojonla i.
54 This was the second occasion on which Jesus gave a sign of his mission on coming from Judea to Galilee.
let kilel kariau, me Iejuj kotin wiadar ni a koti don Kaliliia jan Iudaa.
