IYX
Bafarisi bayuyi ti Yiisu ali na miyii mialaa, na akibootuu baata kwavulu Yowani. Mu uyiluu umono, Yiisu nde makulu a akibootuu pe, ka miyii mia nde miakibootuu. Yiisu bu ayuyi mabakileele, nde amati ku itinini kia Yuuda, na avutii ku itinini kia Ngalili.
BSB
BSB:
When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John
4
IYX
Mu uto ku Ngalili, toono nde ataba itinini kia Samaria.
BSB
BSB:
Now He had to pass through Samaria.
5
IYX
Nde atoori bebele na ngaanda a Samaria mosi, ya kuumbu Sikare. Ngaanda yii, ali bebele na itsuru kia tsi ki Yaakobi ahi kwaa mwaana a nde Yoosefi.
BSB
BSB:
So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
6
IYX
Nhaa, mwali na idunu kia maamba kia Yaakobi. Bu nyutu yalemi Yiisu mu ndaa midieenge, nde adiaali nha peembi a idunu. Ali ka helape nguungu ya nzanga.
BSB
BSB:
Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7
IYX
Musi Samaria mosi wa mukaasa ayiri ku uyatee maamba, na Yiisu wamuleeli: «Ha me maamba ma unywa.»
BSB
BSB:
When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her,
“Give Me a drink.”
8
IYX
Mu taanga me dii, miyii mia nde miali miayeni ku ngaanda, mu uyasuumbu bia udia.
BSB
BSB:
(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9
IYX
Musi Samaria me wuu aleeli kwaa Yiisu: «We Muyuudayo li! Buni we utuu uloombo maamba kwaa me, musi Samaria?» Mukaasa aleeli buu mundaa ti, Bayuudayo a bubaayuhusunu pe na basi Samaria.
BSB
BSB:
“You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
10
IYX
Yiisu wamuvutili: «So we ali ayaaba bungori ba Nziaambi anhana uha kwaa we, na so ali ayaaba wuli mu uloombo we maamba ma unywa, we akeni uloombo nde maamba. Nde keni uha we maamba ma moonyi.»
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered,
“If you knew the gift of God and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
11
IYX
Mukaasa wamuvutili: «Taata, we a li na ipaayi pe, na idunu ili na musundu. Kuni we utuu ubaa maamba ma moonyi maa?
BSB
BSB:
“Sir,” the woman replied, “You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where then will You get this living water?
12
IYX
We avulu kaa a bisi Yaakobi waha bisi idunu ki? Nde makulu anywi maamba ma kio, baana ba nde na biboori bia nde ka bianywiiri mo.»
BSB
BSB:
Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock?”
13
IYX
Yiisu wamuvutili: «Pasi muutu wu unywa maamba ma, sa abwabaa nyooto a maamba.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus said to her,
“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.
14
IYX
Ka muutu wu unywa maamba ma me niha nde, a ubwaba na nyooto a maamba so hoolo pe. Maamba ma me niha nde, sa maba idia kia maamba kili ukanya pe, sa mabaapalanga mu nde natee mu moonyi wa bilimi na bilimi.»
BSB
BSB:
But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.”
15
IYX
Mukaasa wemuleeli: «Taata, ha me maamba maa, paa me nyaala ubwabaa nyooto a maamba. Na, paa me nyaala ubwayiranga nha mu uyatee maamba.»
BSB
BSB:
The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
16
IYX
Yiisu wamuleeli: «Yene, ta mulumi a we mbili, na yiravutuu nha.»
BSB
BSB:
Jesus told her,
“Go, call your husband and come back.”
17
IYX
Mukaasa wamuvutili: «Me a ndi na mulumi pe.» Na Yiisu wamuleeli: «We tsuyi ngwanya, bu we leeli ti we a li na mulumi pe.
BSB
BSB:
“I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her,
“You are correct to say that you have no husband.
18
IYX
Mundaa ti, we ali na balumi bataana, na baala li we li na nde mu taanga di a ali mulumi a we pe. Mu yii, we ngwanya leeli.»
BSB
BSB:
In fact, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. You have spoken truthfully.”
19
IYX
Ni mu buu mukaasa wamuleeli: «Taata, me ndi mu umono ti we mubili a Nziaambi we li.
BSB
BSB:
“Sir,” the woman said, “I see that You are a prophet.
20
IYX
Bakaa ba bisi basi Samaria bakuundi Nziaambi nha yulu a mulaanda wu. Ka beni Bayuudayo, beni dibaaleele ti mbuu yi bafwaana ukuundu Nziaambi ku Yeruselemi yili.»
BSB
BSB:
Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21
IYX
Ka Yiisu wamuvutili: «Maama, sa imiini mu ndaa yi, taanga dili mu uyiri, di beni a dibwakuundu pe Taata Nziaambi, so nha yulu a mulaanda wu, so ku Yeruselemi.
BSB
BSB:
“Believe Me, woman,”
Jesus replied,
“a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
22
IYX
Beni basi Samaria dibaakuundu Nziaambi kwahele a uyaaba nde. Bisi Bayuudayo dibaakuundu nde na diayaaba nde, mundaa ti liyobolo lamata kwaa Bayuudayo.
BSB
BSB:
You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.
23
IYX
Ka taanga dili mu uyiri, na dio diamaakwato. Taanga di bakuundi ba ngwanya bakaakuundu Taayi, mu Muheebili na mu ngwanya. Mundaa ti ni bakuundi ba pili yii Taayi ali mu usaa.
BSB
BSB:
But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.
24
IYX
Nziaambi Muheebili ali, na ba bukuundu nde, bafwaana ukuundu nde mu Muheebili wuli mu ubiti ku ngwanya.»
BSB
BSB:
God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”
25
IYX
Mukaasa wamuleeli: «Me nayaaba ti Mesiya, wu bubaata Kristo, sa ayiri. Nha nde akaayiri, nde sa ayiisi bisi mandaa moosi.»
BSB
BSB:
The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”
26
IYX
Yiisu wamuvutili: «Me ni Kristo, me wu li mu utsuu na we.»
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered,
“I who speak to you am He.”
27
IYX
Mu taanga dii, miyii mia Yiisu miayiravutuu. Bo bakimii mu umono nde mu utsuu na mukaasa. Ka bunu, so mosi pe wamufuuli: «Ima we li mu usaa?» so a buu pe: «Ki ndaa we li mu utsuu na nde?»
BSB
BSB:
Just then His disciples returned and were surprised that He was speaking with a woman. But no one asked Him, “What do You want from her?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
28
IYX
Ni mu buu, mukaasa asiisi lisaanga la nde, na avutii ku ngaanda, ku ayileele kwaa baata:
BSB
BSB:
Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,
29
IYX
«Diyamono muutu wu maaleele me mandaa moosi ma me nayiluu. Helape nde ni Kristo!»
BSB
BSB:
“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”
30
IYX
Ninha, baata bapali mu ngaanda, na bayeni kwali Yiisu.
BSB
BSB:
So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.
31
IYX
Mu taanga dii, miyii miakihama mu uloombo kwaa Yiisu: «Muyiisi, dia mwaana a iloo!»
BSB
BSB:
Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
32
IYX
Ka nde wabavutili: «Me ndi na biloo bia udia, bi beni diahele uyaaba.»
BSB
BSB:
But He told them,
“I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33
IYX
Miyii miafulisini bo na bo: «Na muutu wumaabee nde bia udia?»
BSB
BSB:
So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
34
IYX
Yiisu wabaleeli: «Biloo bia me, ni uyiluu litoono la watsinduu me, na umana isala ki nde aha kwaa me.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus explained,
“My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
35
IYX
Baata bubaaleelanga: “Batsuungi bana bamaasala, na sa diba taanga dia ukukuu.” Ka me nadileeli, diyiluu umono matsiee: mbutu dimaayele na diamaayilimi paa bakukuu dio.
BSB
BSB:
Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
36
IYX
Wu ukukuu maakwayaka mufutu a nde. Nde li mu ukukuu mbutu paa aswee dio mu moonyi wa bilimi na bilimi. Ni mu buu, mukuni na mukukii sa bayaanga mu itwaari.
BSB
BSB:
Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
37
IYX
Mundaa ti, ngwanya baata bubaaleelanga ti: “Muutu mosi ubaakunu, mukimi ubaakukuu.”
BSB
BSB:
For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
38
IYX
Me natsinduu beni mu ukukuu mutso tsiee yi beni diahele umono pasi. Babamosi bamoni pasi mu yo, na beni dibayi ndaanda mu isala kia bo.»
BSB
BSB:
I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others have done the hard work, and now you have taken up their labor.”
39
IYX
Basi Samaria babalayi mu ngaanda yii, basi imiini mu Yiisu, mundaa imbaangi kia mukaasa waleeli: «Nde leeli me mioosi mi me nayiluu.»
BSB
BSB:
Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
40
IYX
Ni mu buu, mu taanga di basi Samaria bayiri kwaa nde, bo bamuloombi mu udiaala na bo. Na Yiisu adiaali nhaa biluumbu bioolo.
BSB
BSB:
So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
41
IYX
Baata babasi imiini babwivululu bulayi, mundaa mi Yiisu nde makulu akileele.
BSB
BSB:
And many more believed because of His message.
42
IYX
Bo bakileele kwaa mukaasa: «Mu taanga di, bisi a dili mu usa pe imiini mu ndila ma we leeli kwaa bisi, ka mundaa ti bisi bame dimaayuu nde, na bisi dimaayaaba ti nde ni Muvuuyisi a baata ba tsi.»
BSB
BSB:
They said to the woman, “We now believe not only because of your words; we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man truly is the Savior of the world.”
43
IYX
Nha mbisi a biluumbu bioolo, Yiisu ayeni ku Ngalili.
BSB
BSB:
After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.
44
IYX
Yiisu nde makulu ali akwileele: «A bali mu uta imbaangi kwaa mubili mu tsi a nde makulu pe.»
BSB
BSB:
Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.
45
IYX
Ka, mu taanga di nde atoori ku Ngalili, baata ba itinini kii bayaki nde bubwe. Bo bamoni mioosi mi nde ayilii ku Yeruselemi mu taanga dia mukuungi a Paaka. Mundaa ti bo ka ali bayeni ku mukuungi wuu.
BSB
BSB:
Yet when He arrived, the Galileans welcomed Him. They had seen all the great things He had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they had gone there as well.
46
IYX
Ninha, Yiisu avutii ku ngaanda a Kaana mu itinini kia Ngalili, ku nde akitisi maamba viinyi. Ku ngaanda a Kapernawumi, kwali na musiali a mutini, wali na mwaana wa baala wali na ubeele.
BSB
BSB:
So once again He came to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.
47
IYX
Bu nde ayuyi ti Yiisu maamata ku itinini kia Yuuda, na maato ku Ngalili, nde ayimono Yiisu na wamuloombi mu uyene ku Kapernawumi itwaari na nde. Nde ayilii buu, paa Yiisu ayabeelese mwaana a nde, wali nha peembi a likwa.
BSB
BSB:
When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was about to die.
48
IYX
Yiisu wamuleeli: «So beni a dimoni biliimbi bia ukimuu na bimaanga pe, beni a dituu usa imiini so hoolo pe.»
BSB
BSB:
Jesus said to him,
“Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”
49
IYX
Musiali a mutini wamuvutili: «Pfumu, yiri ku nzo a me tswaamina mwaana a me ukwa.»
BSB
BSB:
“Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”
50
IYX
Yiisu wamuleeli: «Vutuu ku nzo a we, mwaana a we sa aba moonyi.» Taayi a mwaana wuu, asi imiini mu mi Yiisu aleeli nde, na avutii ku nzo a nde.
BSB
BSB:
“Go,”
said Jesus.
“Your son will live.”
The man took Jesus at His word and departed.
51
IYX
Bu nde akiyiravutuu, mu taanga di basiali ba nde bayibwaana nde, na bamuleeli: «Mwaana a we maabeeluu!»
BSB
BSB:
And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
52
IYX
Nde wabafuuli mu ki taanga mwaana a nde abeelii, na bo bamuvutili: «Aba matsii, mu nguungu ya tsiomi nha mbisi a nzanga, nha baa lawa nde.»
BSB
BSB:
So he inquired as to the hour when his son had recovered, and they told him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.”
53
IYX
Taayi a mwaana alibili moonyi ti, ni mu nguungu yii, Yiisu aleeli kwaa nde: «Mwaana a we sa aba moonyi.» Ni mu buu nde asi imiini mu Yiisu, nde na kaanda la nde loosi.
BSB
BSB:
Then the father realized that this was the very hour in which Jesus had told him,
“Your son will live.”
And he and all his household believed.
54
IYX
Kii ali ni iliimbi kia bioolo ki Yiisu ayilii. Nde ayilii kio ku Ngalili, nha mbisi a umata ku Yuuda.
BSB
BSB:
This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.
