Iohannem 4
1 Ut ergo cognovit Iesus quia audierunt Pharisaei quod Iesus plures discipulos facit, et baptizat, quam Ioannes,
Therefore when Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard, "Jesus is making and baptizing more disciples than John"
2 (quamquam Iesus non baptizaret, sed discipuli eius)
(although Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples),
3 reliquit Iudaeam, et abiit iterum in Galilaeam.
he left Judea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 oportebat autem eum transire per mediam Samariam.
He needed to pass through Samaria.
5 Venit ergo in civitatem Samariae, quae dicitur Sichar: iuxta praedium, quod dedit Iacob Ioseph filio suo.
So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.
6 Erat autem ibi fons Iacob. Iesus ergo fatigatus ex itinere, sedebat sic supra fontem. Hora autem erat quasi sexta.
Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 Venit mulier de Samaria haurire aquam. Dicit ei Iesus: Da mihi bibere.
A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."
8 (Discipuli enim eius abierant in civitatem ut cibos emerent.)
For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Dicit ergo ei mulier illa Samaritana: Quomodo tu Iudaeus cum sis, bibere a me poscis, quae sum mulier Samaritana? non enim coutuntur Iudaei Samaritanis.
The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, "How can you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 Respondit Iesus, et dixit ei: Si scires donum Dei, et quis est, qui dicit tibi: Da mihi bibere: tu forsitan petisses ab eo, et dedisset tibi aquam vivam.
Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."
11 Dicit ei mulier: Domine, neque in quo haurias habes, et puteus altus est: unde ergo habes aquam vivam?
The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. From where do you get that living water?
12 Numquid tu maior es patre nostro Iacob, qui dedit nobis puteum, et ipse ex eo bibit, et filii eius, et pecora eius?
Are you greater than our father, Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, as did his children, and his livestock?"
13 Respondit Iesus, et dixit ei: Omnis, qui bibit ex aqua hac, sitiet iterum:
Jesus answered her, "Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
15 Dicit ad eum mulier: Domine, da mihi hanc aquam, ut non sitiam: neque veniam huc haurire.
The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, so that I do not get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw."
16 Dicit ei Iesus: Vade, voca virum tuum, et veni huc.
He said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."
17 Respondit mulier, et dixit: Non habeo virum. Dicit ei Iesus: Bene dixisti, quia non habeo virum:
The woman answered and said to him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You said well, 'I have no husband,'
18 quinque enim viros habuisti, et hunc, quem habes, non est tuus vir: hoc vere dixisti.
for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly."
19 Dicit ei mulier: Domine, video quia Propheta es tu.
The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 Patres nostri in monte hoc adoraverunt, et vos dicitis, quia Ierosolymis est locus, ubi adorare oportet.
Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship."
21 Dicit ei Iesus: Mulier crede mihi, quia venit hora, quando neque in monte hoc, neque in Ierosolymis adorabitis Patrem.
Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father.
22 Vos adoratis quod nescitis: nos adoramus quod scimus, quia salus ex Iudaeis est.
You worship that which you do not know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
23 Sed venit hora, et nunc est, quando veri adoratores adorabunt Patrem in spiritu et veritate. Nam et Pater tales quaerit, qui adorent eum.
But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.
24 Spiritus est Deus: et eos qui adorant eum, in spiritu et veritate oportet adorare.
God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."
25 Dicit ei mulier: Scio quia Messias venit, (qui dicitur Christus.) cum ergo venerit ille, nobis annunciabit omnia.
The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah comes," (he who is called Christ). "When he has come, he will declare to us all things."
26 Dicit ei Iesus: Ego sum, qui loquor tecum.
Jesus said to her, "I am he, the one who speaks to you."
27 Et continuo venerunt discipuli eius: et mirabantur quia cum muliere loquebatur. Nemo tamen dixit: Quid quaeris, aut quid loqueris cum ea?
At this, his disciples came. They were surprised that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, "What are you looking for?" or, "Why do you speak with her?"
28 Reliquit ergo hydriam suam mulier, et abiit in civitatem, et dicit illis hominibus:
So the woman left her water pot, and went away into the city, and said to the people,
29 Venite, et videte hominem, qui dixit mihi omnia quaecumque feci: numquid ipse est Christus?
"Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?"
30 Exierunt ergo de civitate, et veniebant ad eum.
They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
31 Interea rogabant eum discipuli, dicentes: Rabbi, manduca.
In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."
32 Ille autem dicit eis: Ego cibum habeo manducare, quem vos nescitis.
But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you do not know about."
33 Dicebant ergo discipuli ad invicem: Numquid aliquis attulit ei manducare?
The disciples therefore said one to another, "Has anyone brought him something to eat?"
34 Dicit eis Iesus: Meus cibus est ut faciam voluntatem eius, qui misit me, ut perficiam opus eius.
Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.
35 Nonne vos dicitis, quod adhuc quattuor menses sunt, et messis venit? Ecce dico vobis: Levate oculos vestros, et videte regiones, quia albae sunt iam ad messem.
Do you not say, 'There are yet four months until the harvest?' Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes and see the fields, that they are white for harvest already.
36 Et qui metit, mercedem accipit, et congregat fructum in vitam aeternam: ut, et qui seminat, simul gaudeat, et qui metit. (aiōnios g166)
He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to everlasting life; that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 In hoc enim est verbum verum: quia alius est qui seminat, et alius est qui metit.
For in this the saying is true, 'One sows, and another reaps.'
38 Ego misi vos metere quod vos non laborastis: alii laboraverunt, et vos in labores eorum introistis.
I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor."
39 Ex civitate autem illa multi crediderunt in eum Samaritanorum, propter verbum mulieris testimonium perhibentis: Quia dixit mihi omnia quaecumque feci.
From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, "He told me everything that I did."
40 Cum venissent ergo ad illum Samaritani, rogaverunt eum ut ibi maneret. Et mansit ibi duos dies.
So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.
41 Et multo plures crediderunt in eum propter sermonem eius.
Many more believed because of his word.
42 Et mulieri dicebant: Quia iam non propter tuam loquelam credimus: ipsi enim audivimus, et scimus quia hic est vere Salvator mundi.
They said to the woman, "Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."
43 Post duos autem dies exiit inde: et abiit in Galilaeam.
After the two days he departed from there to Galilee.
44 Ipse enim Iesus testimonium perhibuit quia Propheta in sua patria honorem non habet.
For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
45 Cum ergo venisset in Galilaeam, exceperunt eum Galilaei, cum omnia vidissent quae fecerat Ierosolymis in die festo: et ipsi enim venerant ad diem festum.
So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.
46 Venit ergo iterum in Cana Galilaeae, ubi fecit aquam vinum. Et erat quidam regulus, cuius filius infirmabatur Capharnaum.
Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 Hic cum audisset quia Iesus adveniret a Iudaea in Galilaeam, abiit ad eum, et rogabat eum ut descenderet, et sanaret filium eius: incipiebat enim mori.
When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and pleaded with him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was close to death.
48 Dixit ergo Iesus ad eum: Nisi signa, et prodigia videritis, non creditis.
Jesus therefore said to him, "Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe."
49 Dicit ad eum regulus: Domine, descende prius quam moriatur filius meus.
The nobleman said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
50 Dicit ei Iesus: Vade, filius tuus vivit. Credidit homo sermoni, quem dixit ei Iesus, et ibat.
Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your son lives." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
51 Iam autem eo descendente, servi occurrerunt ei, et nunciaverunt dicentes, quia filius eius viveret.
As he was now going down, his servants met him, saying that his son was alive.
52 Interrogabat ergo horam ab eis, in qua melius habuerit. Et dixerunt ei: Quia heri hora septima reliquit eum febris.
So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, "Yesterday at one in the afternoon, the fever left him."
53 Cognovit ergo pater, quia illa hora erat, in qua dixit ei Iesus: Filius tuus vivit: et credidit ipse, et domus eius tota.
So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." He believed, as did his whole house.
54 Hoc iterum secundum signum fecit Iesus, cum venisset a Iudaea in Galilaeam.
This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.
