¹And on the third day a marriage took place in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

¹Siku ya tatu kulikuwa na arusi mjini Kana, mkoani Galilaya. Mama yake Yesu alikuwapo,

²And Jesus also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage.

²naye Yesu alikuwa amealikwa arusini pamoja na wanafunzi wake.

³And wine being deficient, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine.

³Divai ilipokwisha, mama yake akamwambia, "Hawana divai!"

⁴Jesus says to her, What have I to do with thee, woman? mine hour has not yet come.

⁴Yesu akamjibu, "Mama, usiniambie la kufanya. Saa yangu bado."

⁵His mother says to the servants, Whatever he may say to you, do.

⁵Hapo mama yake akawaambia watumishi, "Lolote atakalowaambieni, fanyeni."

⁶Now there were standing there six stone water-vessels, according to the purification of the Jews, holding two or three measures each.

⁶Hapo palikuwa na mitungi sita ya mawe, ambayo kila mmoja uliweza kuchukua kiasi cha madebe mawili au matatu. Ilikuwa imewekwa hapo kufuatana na desturi ya Kiyahudi ya kutawadha.

⁷Jesus says to them, Fill the water-vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

⁷Yesu akawaambia, "Ijazeni mitungi hiyo maji." Nao wakaijaza mpaka juu.

⁸And he says to them, Draw out now, and carry [it] to the feast-master. And they carried [it].

⁸Kisha akawaambia, "Sasa choteni mkampelekee mkuu wa karamu."

⁹But when the feast-master had tasted the water which had been made wine (and knew not whence it was, but the servants knew who drew the water), the feast-master calls the bridegroom,

⁹Mkuu wa karamu alipoonja hayo maji, kumbe yalikuwa yamegeuka kuwa divai. Yeye hakujua ilikotoka, (lakini wale watumishi waliochota maji walijua). Mkuu wa karamu akamwita bwana arusi,

¹⁰and says to him, Every man sets on first the good wine, and when [men] have well drunk, then the inferior; thou hast kept the good wine till now.

¹⁰akamwambia, "Kila mtu huandaa divai nzuri kwanza hata wakisha tosheka huandaa ile hafifu. Lakini wewe umeiweka divai nzuri mpaka sasa!"

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

¹¹Yesu alifanya ishara hii ya kwanza huko Kana, Galilaya, akaonyesha utukufu wake; nao wanafunzi wake wakamwamini.

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

¹²Baada ya hayo, Yesu alishuka pamoja na mama yake, ndugu zake na wanafunzi wake, wakaenda Kafarnaumu ambako walikaa kwa siku chache.

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

¹³Sikukuu ya Wayahudi ya Pasaka ilikuwa imekaribia; hivyo Yesu akaenda Yerusalemu.

¹⁴And he found in the temple the sellers of oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting;

¹⁴Hekaluni aliwakuta watu wakiuza ng'ombe, kondoo na njiwa, na wavunja fedha walikuwa wamekaa kwenye meza zao.

¹⁵and, having made a scourge of cords, he cast [them] all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the change of the money-changers, and overturned the tables,

¹⁵Akatengeneza mjeledi wa kamba, akawafukuza wote nje ya Hekalu pamoja na kondoo na ng'ombe wao, akazimwaga sarafu za wenye kuvunja fedha na kupindua meza zao.

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

¹⁶Akawaambia wale waliokuwa wanauza njiwa, "Ondoeni vitu hivi hapa. Msiifanye nyumba ya Baba yangu kuwa soko!"

¹⁷[And] his disciples remembered that it is written, The zeal of thy house devours me.

¹⁷Wanafunzi wake wakakumbuka kwamba Maandiko yasema: "Upendo wangu kwa nyumba yako waniua."

¹⁸The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign shewest thou to us, that thou doest these things?

¹⁸Baadhi ya Wayahudi wakamwuliza Yesu, "Utafanya muujiza gani kuonyesha kwamba unayo haki kufanya mambo haya?"

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

¹⁹Yesu akawaambia, "Vunjeni Hekalu hili, nami nitalijenga kwa siku tatu."

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

²⁰Hapo Wayahudi wakasema, "Hekalu hili lilijengwa kwa muda wa miaka arobaini na sita. Je, wewe utalijenga kwa siku tatu?"

²¹But *he* spoke of the temple of his body.

²¹Lakini Yesu alikuwa anaongea juu ya Hekalu ambalo ni mwili wake.

²²When therefore he was raised from among [the] dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

²²Basi, alipofufuliwa kutoka wafu, wanafunzi wake walikumbuka kwamba alikuwa amesema hayo, wakaamini Maandiko Matakatifu na yale maneno aliyokuwa akisema Yesu.

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

²³Yesu alipokuwa Yerusalemu kwa sikukuu ya Pasaka, watu wengi walimwamini walipoona ishara alizozifanya.

²⁴But Jesus himself did not trust himself to them, because he knew all [men],

²⁴Lakini Yesu hakuwa na imani nao kwa sababu aliwajua wote.

²⁵and that he had not need that any should testify of man, for himself knew what was in man.

²⁵Hakuhitaji kuambiwa chochote juu ya watu, maana aliyajua barabara mambo yote yaliyomo mioyoni mwao.
