John 2 (MPA) · Opened

1Na lichobha la katatu kukabhi na ukwati ku muchi wa Kana, ja ku Galilaya. Na mabhu waka Yesu akabhi konikola,On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

2Yesu najombi akabhi bhunkokiki paukwati ghola papamu na bhabhulwa bhaki.and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

3Chikahi divai pajajomwiki, mabhu waka Yesu akumpwaghile, “Ngachebhabhi na divai.”When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

4Yesu akumpwaghile, “Mbomba, bho, maghambu kiki umbwaghi malobhi aghagha nepane? Chenjenu nga chikahi chechipalika kwangu nepani kuhenga leniheli.”“Woman, what is that to you and to Me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5Amabhu waka Yesu akabhapwaghi bhatumika, “Lokapi lenaampwaghilaje, mulihengaje.”His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”

6Bhela kukabhi na ihulu sita ya maganga, kila chimu chakabhi na ukolongwa wa kutama machi madebi ghabheli au ghatatu, nayombi ikabhekakiki konihoku ngati mowabheli ntetu wa Bhayahude wa kuligholola kwa ndandi ja kunjojabhe Chapanga.Now six stone water jars had been set there for the Jewish rites of purification. Each could hold from twenty to thirty gallons.

7Yesu akabhapwaghile, “Ntwelakya machi tuwe mwihulu heyi.” Nabhombi bhakatwelaki mbaka panani.Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

8Akabhapwaghile, “Henu ntekaje, na mumpelakyaje nkolongwa wa ukwati.” Nabhombi bhakapeliki.“Now draw some out,” He said, “and take it to the master of the banquet.” They did so,

9Najombi nkolongwa wa chilebhe cha ukwati paakaghaonjiki machi ghala ghakang'anambwiki kubha divai, panga na kumanya koghahumiki, nambu bhatumika bhakamanyiki, bhala bhabhatekiki machi ghala, nkolongwa wa ukwati jola akundohiki bambo ukwati,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

10akumpwaghile, “Kila mundu atumbu hoti kuandaa divai jambone, na bhandu anabhanywili nakanopi, bhaleta divai jangakunogha. Nambu wehapa ujibhekiki divai jamboni mbaka sajenu!”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!”

11Nginyulila jenjenu ja kutumbula akahengiki Yesu ku Kana ja ku Galilaya, na kulangiha ulumbalilu waki, na bhabhhulwa bhaki bhakunhobhalile.Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

12Paghapetiki ghanigala Yesu akahelili mbaka ku Kapelenaumu, jombi na mabhu waki na bhalongu bhaki na bhabhulwa bhaki, bhakatemi konihoku kwa machobha machokope.After this, He went down to Capernaum with His mother and brothers and His disciples, and they stayed there a few days.

13Pasaka ja Bhayahude jakabhi jiheghalile, najombi Yesu akakweliki mbaka ku Yelusalemu.When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

14Akapaweni pala pa liwangala la Nyumba jaka Chapanga bhandu bhakahemalya ng'ombi, na mambeleli, na ngunda na bhabhang'anambu mbija bhatami pameza yabhu.In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables.

15Akalokiki ntibhi kubha chiboku, akabhabhohiki bhokapi pa liwangala la Nyumba jaka Chapanga, na mambeleli na ng'ombi, akajitili mbija ya bhabhang'anambu mbija, na kuipendula meza yabhu,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.

16akabhapwaghi bhala bhabhahemalela ngunda, “Muhibhoha hindu hayeyi pambane, na ngamwajitenda nyumba ja Atati wangu kubha pandu pa kuhemela na kulombasela!”To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”

17Bhabhulwa bhaki bhakakombwiki kubha ilembakiki mu Malembu Mahuhu, “Wenga wa Chapanga, wihu wangu kwa nyumba jaku unyocha ngati moto!”His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for Your house will consume Me.”

18Henu Bhayahude bhakamuyangiki, na kumpwaghila, “Bho, anautulangiha nginyulila bholi, nahuli kutulangiha kubha ubhi na lujiniku lwa kuhenga mambu ghangane?”On account of this, the Jews demanded, “What sign can You show us to prove Your authority to do these things?”

19Yesu akabhayangike, na kubhapwaghila, “Mjibhombulaje Nyumba jaka Chapanga hajeji, na nepani ananjengaje kwa machobha ghatatu.”Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”

20Bhela Bhayahude bhakapwaghike, “Nyumba jaka Chapanga hajeji jakachengakiki kwa hyaka alobaini na sita, bho, na wehapa anauchengaje kwa machobha ghatatu?”“This temple took forty-six years to build,” the Jews replied, “and You are going to raise it up in three days?”

21Nambu jombi akapwagiki kwa nyumba ja hyegha jake.But Jesus was speaking about the temple of His body.

22Bhela Yesu paakayokiki kuhuma kwa bhakuwa, bhabhulwa bhaki bhakakombwiki kubha akapwaghiki ghanihagha, bhakaghahobhalili Malembu Mahuhu ghala, na malobhi ghokapi ghaakalongi Yesu.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.

23Yesu paakabhi ku Yelusalemu ku uwangalalu wa Pasaka, bhandu bhamaheli bhakunhobhali kubha jombi nde Masihi, pabhiweni nginyulila yaki yeakahengike.While He was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the signs He was doing and believed in His name.

24Nambu Yesu ngacheabhahobhalile, kwa ndandi jombi akabhamanyiki bhokapi,But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

25na ngacheakabhi na ndandi ja kupala mundu wa kundandila mambu gha bhandu, kwa ndandi jombi mweni akamanyiki ghaghabhi mkati ja mtima waka mundu.He did not need any testimony about man, for He knew what was in a man.
