John 4 (SCE) · Opened

1Falisai kun chenliese Ersa Yaheiyase tuji olon ghurazhi xili gieghazho. Shiji jiere Ersa goyane xili ese gieghazho, tujilani gieghazho. Ersa ene shiqinlai mejiedene Yudayase likai gie Jialilide khareine giezho.When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John

4Echikudeni Samaliya moni daone.Now He had to pass through Samaria.

5Samaliyai nie chenshide kuruwo. Niereini Xijia giene. Ene chenshishi Yagebu Yusufu kewondene ogisan oron konde wo.So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.

6Yagebuni jin hhende wo. Ersa yozhi hhechese jin konde souwo. Chabudu zhunwu xienzi wo.Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

7Samaliyai nie bierei usu daile irese Ersa hhende kieliewo, "Made ususene gouji ogi."When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”

8Ene shihoude tujilani chenshise ijiuni agile echizho.(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)

9Samaliyai bierei kieliewo, "Chishi Yutai kun wo. Matugie Samaliyai nie biereise usu kerene?" Yenlai Yutai kun Samaliya kunghala laiwon ese giezho.“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.)

10Ersa kieliewo, "Chi Hudai nenjienni mejiese, pse chase usu keresanshi kien bikui mejiese chi hhei xiahua giene, hhe amitu usui chade ogine."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.”

11Bierei kieliewo, "Gujiu, chade usu daiku tunzida uwo. Jin imutu gun wo. Chi khalase amitu usu daine?“Sir,” the woman replied, “You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where then will You get this living water?

12Bijienyi xienren Yagebu ene jinni bijiende jiewo. Hhe goyane, kesilani, asunla man enense ijiezho. Chi hhense da fugie onu?"Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock?”

13Ersa kieliewo, "Ene usui usan kunla pse undasune.Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

14Bi ogisan usui use chanqi ulie undasune. Bi ogisan usu hhei sudoro bula gholuzhi izhi usuruzhi khizhezhi hhende chanqiku amin ogine."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.”

15Bierei kieliewo, "Gujiu, made ene usui nie ogi. Ingiese bi ulie undasune. Bi pse enense usu daile ulie irene."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.”

16Ersa kieliewo, "Chi echidene zhanguijine uruzhi ire."Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

17Bierei kieliewo, "Made zhanguiji uwo." Ersa kieliewo, "Chade zhanguiji uwo giezhi kieliesan oluzho.“I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her, “You are correct to say that you have no husband.

18Melieshida chade tawun zhanguiji wine. Edekushi chii zhanguiji pusho. Chi kieliesan oluzho."In fact, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. You have spoken truthfully.”

19Bierei kieliewo, "Gujiu, bi uzhese chishi nie xienzhi wo.“Sir,” the woman said, “I see that You are a prophet.

20Bijien Samaliya kunyi xienrenla ene ulade beii giezhoma, ta Yutai kunla kieliese Yelusalenshi beiiku oron wo giezho."Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”

21Ersa kieliewo, "Funi, mii xianxin gie. Shihou kuzhese Adai beiiku ene ulade uwo, Yelusalende ye uwo.“Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

22Ta Samaliya kun kienyi beiisanne ulie mejiene. Bijien Yutai kun kienyi beiisanne mejiene. Jiuikushi Yutai kunni tungo giezhi irene.You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.

23Shihou kuzhese Adai shixinji beiisan kun zhughesene shixinji beiine. Shihou ede enbene. Ada ingiezhi goude beiisan kunyi ereine.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.

24Hudashi ruhher wo. Hhei beiisan kun indan zhughesene shixinji beiikuni wo."God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”

25Bierei kieliewo, "Hhe Jidu giezhi urusan Mexihai irekui bi mejiene. Hhe irese bijiende man mejieghane."The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”

26Ersa kieliewo, "Chimare kielien kieliesanshi enbene."Jesus answered, “I who speak to you am He.”

27Ingiekude tujilani kharei ire Ersa nie biereire kielien kieliesei uzhedene ghanirazho. Chi yan kerene? Chi yangiezhi biereighala kielien kieliezho giezhi kiema asa dawo.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?”

28Hhe bierei usu tunzine jie, chenshide echisenu olon kunlade kieliewo,Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,

29"Ta uzhele irendu, nie kun bi giesan shiqinlai man kielie khizheghawo! Ene kunshi Mexiha enbeneba?"“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

30Ingiese kunla aghinse khizhe Ersai hhende echiwo.So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.

31Ingiekude tujilani kieliewo, "Loushi, ijie."Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”

32Ersa kieliewo, "Made ta mejie daku ijiuni wine."But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”

33Ingiese tujilani nieniedene asazho, "Kunla ogizhi ijieghazhoba?"So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”

34Ersa kieliewo, "Mii ijiunishi mii peizhi ireghasan hhei isini gieku wo. Hhei wilielai chengun olughane.Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.

35Ta kieliese pse jieran sarashi boudei ghuraku shihou olune giezho. Bi tande kielieye, ta qiorunne qila hhe ghazhade nie uzhe, ede ghuraku oluwo.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.

36Ghurasan kun gunzi bareizhi chanqiku aminde ugu cunjizho. Ingiese tareisan kun ghurasan kunghala hhantu bayasune.Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.

37Kienni kieliedanma, 'Nie kun tareine, da nie kun ghurane.' Ene kielien oluzho.For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.

38Bi tai peizhi ghuraghale echise ta ese khishulasan ghazhade echighawo. Ta kunla khishulasei xianshou giezho."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.”

39Hhe bierei ganzhen beizhi, "Bi giesan shiqinlai hhe kun man kielie khizheghawo!" giezhi kieliese hhe chenshidedu olon Samaliya kunla Ersai xianxin giewo.Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”

40Samaliya kunla Ersai ochirale irewo. Hhei xiahua giezhi hhelai hhende sou giese, Ersa ghuarudu souwo.So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.

41Ersai kielienyi chenliedene xianxin giesan kun pse olodowo.And many more believed because of His message.

42Hhela biereide kieliewo, "Bijien ede xianxin giese chi kieliesan pusho. Bijien goyane hhei kielienyini chenliedene hheshi zhenzhenji duyani jiuichen enbekui mejiewo."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.”

43Ghuarudu daosenu Ersa hhe oronse likai gie Jialilide echiwo.After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.

44Ersa goyane kieliezhi daozho, "Xienzhini goya aghindene ulie zunjine."Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.

45Ersa Jialilide kuse hhe oronyi kunla jienliezho. Hhela Yelusalende jieqi daoghale echisande Ersa giesan shiqinlai man uzhewo.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.

46Ersa pse Jialilini Jianade khareizhi irewo. Yen melieshida usui jiu gholughasan hhe oronde wo. Hhende nie fugie noyen wine, kewonni Jiabainunde giemerezho.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.

47Ersa Yudayase Jialilide iresanyi hhe sonosudene ochirale ire, "Mii kewon duya ijiene giezho. Goudaghale yo!" giezhi xiahua giewo.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.

48Ersa kieliewo, "Ta ghudureqi, fugie shiqinlai ulie chanlatula xianxin ulie giene."Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”

49Noyen kieliewo, "Gujiu, kewonmi ese duya ijietula nie bouzhi yo."“Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”

50Ersa kieliewo, "Chi kharei, kewonchii goudawo." Hhe kun Ersai kielienyi xianxin giedene khareiwo.“Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.

51Giedene boukudeni mo jiere hojilani hhei jienliele ire, "Kewonchii goudawo." giezhi kieliewo.And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.

52Ingiese hhe asawo, "Kewon yan shihoude goudawo?" Hojila kieliewo, "Uchughudu xiawu 1 jiende tuishao giezhi qiiwo."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.”

53Ingiese adani Ersa kewonchii goudawo giesan hhe shihoui mejiewo. Ingiese hhe nie giechilie man Ersai xianxin giewo.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.

54Eneshi Ersa Yudayase Jialilide khareidene giesan ji 2 gie ghudureqi wo.This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.
