John 2 (GAX) · Opened

1Guyyaa sadeesso'oo qachaa Qaana'aa ka lafa Galiila'aa keessa fuudhaa fi heerumatti jiraayyu. Haati Yesuusiille achi jirtiiyyu.On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

2Yesuusii fi barattooti isaalle gara fuudhaa fi heeruma sanii waamamaneeran.and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

3Yennaa daadhiin woyni'ii dhumatte, haati Yesuusii, «Daadhii woyni'ii isaan duraa dhumatte» Yesuusiin jette.When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

4Yesuus, «Aayyaa, waan huju natti himu'uuf hin malle; yennaan tiyya ammalle hin geenne» jedhee deebise.“Woman, what is that to you and to Me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5Achiin duuba haati Yesuusii, «Waan inni isinitti himu godha'a» jettee tajaajiltootatti hinte.His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”

6Yihudooti aadaa dhugeeffanna'aa ka ittiin ifi qulleessanu waan qabanuuf, okkotooti gugurdoon dhakaa irraa hujante jaan achi jirtiiyyu; tokko tokkoon isaanii gara litirii saddeettamaa haga litirii dhibbaa fi diddamaa qabuu dande'an.Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.

7Yesuus tajaajiltootaan, «Okkotoota san bisaaniin guuta'a» jedhe. Isaanille haga afaanii guutane.Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

8Achiin duuba inni isaaniin, «Amma budduussa'aatii, itti gaafatamaa jilaatitti geessa'a» jedhe. Isaanille isaaf geessane.“Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,

9Itti gaafatamaan jilaalle bisaan daadhii woyni'ii te'e san fiixxisee ilaale. Tajaajiltooti worri bisaan budduusse beekanuu malee, inni daadhiin woyni'ii tun eessaa akka dhutte hin beenne; maarre inni waajibicha waamee,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

10«Nami marti dursee daadhii dansaa namaa kennee, keessummooti untee quutteen duuba daadhii calcala namaa kenna. Ati ammoo daadhii dansittii haga ammaa tursite!» jedheen.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!”

11Yesuus qachaa Qaana'aa ka lafa Galiila'aa keessatti bilbaasa qaraa kana huje; achitti ulfinna ifii mudhisee, barattooti isaalle isatti dhugeeffatane.Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12Kanaan duuba, Yesuus haadha ifii, obboleeyyanii fi barattoota ifii woliin gara Qifirnaahoomii dhaqe; isaan guyyoota diqqaa achi turane.After this, He went down to Capernaum with His mother and brothers and His disciples, and they stayed there a few days.

13Guyyaan Jila Irra Dabaramaa dhikaateeruun, Yesuus gara Yerusaalemii dhaqe.When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14Achitti inni Galma Waaqaa keessatti kolbaa loon, hoole'ee fi saphaliisa gurgurattu, worra beesee jijjiiratulle xarapheessaa isaanii bira tee'iisatti jiranuun dhagge.In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.

15Maarre inni lichee wodaro'oo dhowatee, isaan maraa, hoole'ee fi loon, horii maraayyuu Galma Waaqaa keessaa gad oofe; inni xarapheessaa worra beesee jijjiiratuu garaggaggalchee beesee isaaniille bittinneesse.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.

16Worra saphaliisa gurguratu saniin, «Waan kana as keessaa gad baasa'a! Mana Abbaa kiyyaa addee dikko'oo hin godhina'a!» jedhee ajaje.To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”

17Barattooti isaa, «Hinaaffaan mana keetii, akka ibiddaa na guddi» jedhantee ta barreeffante san qaabatane.His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”

18Yihudooti baallii qabanu, «Ati waan kana godhiisaaf baallii akka qaddu nu'utti mudhisiisaaf bilbaasa maan godhuu dandeetta?» jedhanee isa gaafatane.On account of this, the Jews demanded, “What sign can You show us to prove Your authority to do these things?”

19Yesuus, «Galma Waaqaa kana diiga'a! Ani guyyaa sad keessatti deebisee hin ijaaraa» jedhee deebise.Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”

20Yihudooti baallii qabanu, «Galma kana ijaariisaaf woggaa afurtamii jaa fixeera, ati guyyaa sad keessatti deebittee ijaartaa?» jedhanee isa gaafatane.“This temple took forty-six years to build,” the Jews replied, “and You are going to raise it up in three days?”

21Galmi Waaqaa ka Yesuus dubbate sun nafuma Yesuusii ti.But Jesus was speaking about the temple of His body.

22Maarre inni du'aa ka'een duuba, barattooti isaa akka inni tana dubbate qaabatanee, Barreeffama Woyyichaa fi waan Yesuus dubbate dhugeeffatane.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.

23Yennaa Jila Irra Dabaramaa Yesuus Yerusaalem keessa jiruun, namooti hedduun bilbaasa inni godhe dhagganee isatti dhugeeffatane.While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His name.

24Yesuus ammoo namoota maraa waan beekuuf, isaan hin addanne.But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

25Inni ifiifuu waan gadhaa namaa keessa jiru waan beekuuf, marroo namootaa akka isatti himu nami tokkolle hin barbaachinne.He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man.
