¹በሦስተኛውም ቀን በገሊላ ቃና ሰርግ ነበረ፥ የኢየሱስም እናት በዚያ ነበረች፤

¹And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

²ኢየሱስም ደግሞ ደቀ መዛሙርቱም ወደ ሰርጉ ታደሙ።

²and Jesus also was bidden, and his disciples, to the marriage.

³የወይን ጠጅም ባለቀ ጊዜ የኢየሱስ እናት። የወይን ጠጅ እኮ የላቸውም አለችው።

³And when the wine failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

⁴ኢየሱስም። አንቺ ሴት፥ ከአንቺ ጋር ምን አለኝ? ጊዜዬ ገና አልደረሰም አላት።

⁴And Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

⁵እናቱም ለአገልጋዮቹ። የሚላችሁን ሁሉ አድርጉ አለቻቸው።

⁵His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

⁶አይሁድም እንደሚያደርጉት የማንጻት ልማድ ስድስት የድንጋይ ጋኖች በዚያ ተቀምጠው ነበር፥ እያንዳንዳቸውም ሁለት ወይም ሦስት እንስራ ይይዙ ነበር።

⁶Now there were six waterpots of stone set there after the Jews' manner of purifying, containing two or three firkins apiece.

⁷ኢየሱስም። ጋኖቹን ውኃ ሙሉአቸው አላቸው። እስከ አፋቸውም ሙሉአቸው አላቸው። እስከ አፋቸውም ሞሉአቸው።

⁷Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

⁸አሁን ቀድታችሁ ለአሳዳሪው ስጡት አላቸው፤ ሰጡትም።

⁸And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the ruler of the feast. And they bare it.

⁹አሳዳሪውም የወይን ጠጅ የሆነውን ውሃ በቀመሰ ጊዜ ከወዴት እንደ መጣ አላወቀም፤ ውኃውን የቀዱት አገልጋዮች ግን ያውቁ ነበር፤ አሳዳሪው ሙሽራውን ጠርቶ።

⁹And when the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants that had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast calleth the bridegroom,

¹⁰ሰው ሁሉ አስቀድሞ መልካሙን የወይን ጠጅ ያቀርባል፥ ከሰከሩም በኋላ መናኛውን፤ አንተስ መልካሙን የወይን ጠጅ እስከ አሁን አቆይተሃል አለው።

¹⁰and saith unto him, Every man setteth on first the good wine; and when [men] have drunk freely, [then] that which is worse: thou hast kept the good wine until now.

¹¹ኢየሱስ ይህን የምልክቶች መጀመሪያ በገሊላ ቃና አደረገ፤ ክብሩንም ገለጠ፥ ደቀ መዛሙርቱም በእርሱ አመኑ።

¹¹This beginning of his signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

¹²ከዚህ በኋላ ከእናቱና ከወንድሞቹ ከደቀ መዛሙርቱም ጋር ወደ ቅፍርናሆም ወረደ፥ በዚያም ጥቂት ቀን ኖሩ።

¹²After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and [his] brethren, and his disciples; and there they abode not many days.

¹³የአይሁድ ፋሲካም ቀርቦ ነበር፥ ኢየሱስም ወደ ኢየሩሳሌም ወጣ።

¹³And the passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

¹⁴በመቅደስም በሬዎችንና በጎችን ርግቦችንም የሚሸጡትን ገንዘብ ለዋጮችንም ተቀምጠው አገኘ፤

¹⁴And he found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

¹⁵የገመድም ጅራፍ አበጅቶ ሁሉን በጎችንም በሬዎችንም ከመቅደስ አወጣቸው፥ የለዋጮችንም ገንዘብ አፈሰሰ ገበታዎቻቸውንም ገለበጠ፥

¹⁵and he made a scourge of cords, and cast all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers' money, and overthrew their tables;

¹⁶ርግብ ሻጪዎችንም። ይህን ከዚህ ውሰዱ፤ የአባቴን ቤት የንግድ ቤት አታድርጉት አላቸው።

¹⁶and to them that sold the doves he said, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.

¹⁷ደቀ መዛሙርቱም። የቤትህ ቅናት ይበላኛል ተብሎ እንደ ተጻፈ አሰቡ።

¹⁷His disciples remembered that it was written, Zeal for thy house shall eat me up.

¹⁸ስለዚህ አይሁድ መልሰው። ይህን ስለምታደርግ ምን ምልክት ታሳየናለህ? አሉት።

¹⁸The Jews therefore answered and said unto him, What sign showest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things?

¹⁹ኢየሱስም መልሶ። ይህን ቤተ መቅደስ አፍርሱት፥ በሦስት ቀንም አነሣዋለሁ አላቸው።

¹⁹Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

²⁰ስለዚህ አይሁድ። ይህ ቤተ መቅደስ ከአርባ ስድስት ዓመት ጀምሮ ይሠራ ነበር፥ አንተስ በሦስት ቀን ታነሣዋለህን? አሉት።

²⁰The Jews therefore said, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou raise it up in three days?

²¹እርሱ ግን ስለ ሰውነቱ ቤተ መቅደስ ይል ነበር።

²¹But he spake of the temple of his body.

²²ስለዚህ ከሙታን ከተነሣ በኋላ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ ይህን እንደ ተናገረ አሰቡና መጽሐፍንና ኢየሱስ የተናገረውን ቃል አመኑ።

²²When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he spake this; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.

²³በፋሲካ በዓልም በኢየሩሳሌም ሳለ፥ ያደረገውን ምልክት ባዩ ጊዜ ብዙ ሰዎች በስሙ አመኑ፤

²³Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, during the feast, many believed on his name, beholding his signs which he did.

²⁴ነገር ግን ኢየሱስ ሰዎችን ሁሉ ያውቅ ነበር፤ ስለ ሰውም ማንም ሊመሰክር አያስፈልገውም ነበርና አይተማመናቸውም ነበር፤ ራሱ በሰው ያለውን ያውቅ ነበርና።

²⁴But Jesus did not trust himself unto them, for that he knew all men,

²⁵and because he needed not that any one should bear witness concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.
