John 2 (CTH) · Opened

1Apâthum hnin Galilee ram Kanâ khovah yuvâ kâ paluennae pawi koe Jisuh e manu hai ao van.On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

2Jisuh hoi a hnukkâbangnaw hai hote pawi koe a coun awh.and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

3Misurtui abaw navah Jisuh koe a manu ni Misurtui abaw toe atipouh.When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

4Jisuh ni, napui nang, bangmaw duem na o hoeh, ka tueng kuep hoe rah, atipouh.“Woman, what is that to you and to Me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5A manu ni, ahni ni a dei e patetlah sak awh, atipouh.His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”

6Judah phung lah kut kamsin nahanelah maroi taruk touh ouk a hruek awh.Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.

7Jisuh ni maroi dawk tui koung pakawi awh, telah thaw katawknaw a patoun teh seisei ka poum lah a hlun awh.Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

8Duek nateh pawi thungvah rei haw atipouh e patetlah a rei awh.“Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,

9Pawi thung kaawm naw ni hote misurtui teh nâ e maw tie panuek awh hoeh ei, haw e thaw katawknaw ni teh a panue awh. Hatnavah yupaluenkung hah a oup awh.and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not know where it was from, but the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside

10Ayânaw teh misur yamu ahruem hah apasuek poung lah a pânei awh, hahoi teh a radu a pânei awh, nang teh atu sittouh ahruem na tawn rah atipouh awh.and said, “Everyone serves the fine wine first, and then the cheap wine after the guests are drunk. But you have saved the fine wine until now!”

11Hottelah Jisuh ni apasuekpoung e kângairunae Galilee ram Kanâ khovah a sak teh, amae bawilennae a kamnue sak. A hnukkâbangnaw ni hai hoe a tang awh.Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12Hahoi, Jisuh teh a manu, a nawnghanaw hoi a hnukkâbangnaw hoi Kapernuam lah a cei awh teh hawvah hnin dongdeng a cam awh.After this, He went down to Capernaum with His mother and brothers and His disciples, and they stayed there a few days.

13Judahnaw e ceitakhai pawi a hnai toung dawkvah Jisuh teh Jerusalem lah a cei.When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14Bawkim dawk maito, tu hoi bakhu ka yawt e naw hoi pawi koe tangka ka thung e naw a hmu navah,In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.

15hem nahan bongpai a la teh haw e taminaw, tu hoi maitonaw hai bawkim thung hoi a pâlei teh hnopai yonae caboinaw hai koung a tanawt pouh.So He made a whip out of cords and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle. He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.

16Bakhu kayawtnaw han hai na hnonaw lat awh. A Pa e im hah hnopai yonae lah sak a hanh awh.To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”

17Cakathoung ni a dei e patetlah, Aw, Bawipa na im ka lungpatawnae ni ka lung a tangpo sak tie hah a hnukkâbangnaw ni hlot a pouk awh.His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”

18Judahnaw ni nang ni hettelah hno na sak pawiteh, bang patet e mitnout hno maw kaimouh na patue han, atipouh awh.On account of this, the Jews demanded, “What sign can You show us to prove Your authority to do these things?”

19Jisuh ni, hete bawkim heh, raphoe awh haw hnin thum touh hoi ka sak han telah atipouh.Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”

20Judahnaw ni a kum 46 touh thung hete bawkim ka sak awh e nang ni teh hnin thum touh hoi ka cum han na ti, atipouh awh.“This temple took forty-six years to build,” the Jews replied, “and You are going to raise it up in three days?”

21Hottelah a dei ngainae teh, amae a tak bawkim a dei ngainae doeh.But Jesus was speaking about the temple of His body.

22Duenae koehoi bout a thaw hnukkhu vah, a hnukkâbangnaw ni hote lawk hah hlot a pouk awh teh, Cakathoung hoi Jisuh lawk teh a yuem awh.After He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.

23Ceitakhai pawi ao nah thungvah, Jisuh teh Jerusalem vah ao teh, mitnout a sak e hah tami moikapap ni a hmu awh, hahoi Bawipa teh a yuem awh.While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His name.

24Hatei, Jisuh ni tami pueng koung a panue dawkvah ahnimouh koe amahoima kâhnawng hoeh.But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

25Tami e a lungthung bangmaw kaawm tie pheng a panue dawkvah tami e a kong rene kampangkhai han ngai hoeh.He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man.
