John 2 (DIF) · Opened

1Ja ditji parkulani noapatamalini ditji nganana wonti Kana ngurani Galilaiani; ja Jesuni ngandri naka nganana wonti.On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

2Ja tanali bakana Jesus ja mili nunkani noapatamalini ditjia karkana wonti.and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

3Ja waina matja mudana, Jesuni ngandri nunkangu jatana wonti: „Waina pani morla tanalia ngamalkai.“When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

4Jesus nankangu jatana wonti: „Mina ngakangu ja jinkangu Widlajai? Ditji ngakani wata wokarala wapaia.““Woman, what is that to you and to Me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5Ngandri nunkani milini jatana wonti: „Mina Nauja jurangu jatai, jenia ngankanau!“His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”

6Ja naka mardangapakoko pirna mara wora ja kulno terkana wonti, worderu Juda kanali milingeru ngamalkana wonti kulirkaterila, ja koko pirnali mandrani koko waka mandru kara, parkulu kara patana wonti.Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.

7Jesus tanangu jatana wonti: „Ngapakoko manamiri ngankanau ngapali.“ Ja tanali manamiri ngankana wonti.Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

8Ja Nau tanangu jatana wonti: „Kaluanau, ja bukanajinajibanietjani padakanau!“ Ja tanali padakana wonti.“Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,

9Ja bukanajinajibanietja nina waina, nau ngopera ngapa nganana warai, wontjana wonti, ja nau ko nganana wonti woderindru nau, windri mili milkila nganana wonti, ngangau tanali ngapa manina, bukanajinajibanietjali noangantjanipirna karkana wonti,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

10Ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Kana pratjanali waina ngumu ngopera jinkiai, ja tana matja kaljura nganana, ngadani madlentji; jundru waina ngumu kulkana warai kararielu.“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!”

11Naupini malka ngopera nganana wonti, nina Jesujeli ngankana wonti Kana ngurani Galilaiani pirnala nunkani wondrala; ja milieli nunkanali morlalu ngundrana wonti nunkangu.Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12Ngadani Nau Kapernaum nguraia ngarina wonti, Nau ja ngandri nunkani ja ngatata nunkani ja mili nunkani; ja naka tanali windri ditji palpa ngamana wonti.After this, He went down to Capernaum with His mother and brothers and His disciples, and they stayed there a few days.

13Ja Juda kanaia Passa karakara nganana wonti, ja Jesus tarana wonti Jerusalemia.When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14Ja Nulu Godaia pungaia mankamankana wonti tanana nganti pirna ja tjipi ja mulapara burungankanani ja mardatandrakaritjimalkanietja ngamanani.In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.

15Ja Nulu jinkandru nandrani jinka wirri ngankana wonti, ja pratjana Godaia pungandru narana wonti, tjipi ja bakana nganti pirna; ja mardatandrakaritjimalkanietjaia marda Nulu nangana wonti, ja karitjimalkani kurli tanani Nulu kokulterkibana wonti.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.

16Ja Nau mulaparaburungankanietjani jatana wonti: „Padakanimai tananapara pratjana ninkidandru, ja wata ngakani Ngaperaia punga burungankani punga karitjimalkanau!“To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”

17Milieli nunkanali ngundrana wonti worderu dakanala parai: „Ngantjana pirnali jinkani pungandru ngana tajila nganai.“His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”

18Juda kanali kalabana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Mina malka jundru ngaianingu wondrai, ngangau jundru ninapini ngankai?“On account of this, the Jews demanded, “What sign can You show us to prove Your authority to do these things?”

19Jesujeli kalabana wonti ja jatana wonti tanangu: „Ninapini punga wokaribamai, ja ditjini parkulani ngato ninaia terkibana tarala nganai.“Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”

20Juda kana jatana wonti: „Ninapini punga tanali 46 kilpawoldrani wotina wonti, ja jundru ninaia ditjini parkulani terkibana tarala nganai?““This temple took forty-six years to build,” the Jews replied, “and You are going to raise it up in three days?”

21Nau jenia jatana wonti nunkani palku pungandru.But Jesus was speaking about the temple of His body.

22Nau matja tepi terkakana warai narindru, milieli nunkanali ngundrana wonti, Nulu jenia tanangu jatana wonti; ja tanali jaurani morlalu ngundrana wonti, ja nunkangupini jaurani nina Jesus jatana wonti.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.

23Nau Jerusalemingu nganana Passa ditji pirnani, marapujeli talani nunkanani morlalu ngundrana wonti, ngangau tanali malka nunkani najina wonti, tanana Nulu ngankana wonti.While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His name.

24Jesujeli tanangu wata morlalu ngundrana wonti, ngangau Nulu pratjana ngujamana wonti.But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

25Ja nunkangu wata kulno jaura jinkinanto kanandru; ngangau Nulu muntali ngujamana wonti, mina kanani nganai.He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man.
