¹Huan, Jesun, Johan sangin, nungjui tamjaw a bawl chih leh a baptis chih Pharisaiten a ja uh chi Toupan a theih takin,

¹Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

²(Himahleh, Jesu hialin jaw a baptis kei, a nungjuiten a baptis zo jel uhi),

²(although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

³Judia gam a paisan a, Galili gamah a kik nawnta hi.

³he left Judea, and departed into Galilee.

⁴Huchiin Samari gam a kantan ding ahi a.

⁴He needed to pass through Samaria.

⁵Huchiin, Samari gam kho khat, Saikar a chih uah a hongtunga, Jakobin a tapa Joseph kianga mun a piakna kiang;

⁵So he came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son, Joseph.

⁶Jakob tuileh leng huaiah a om hi. Huchiin, Jesu a pai gim jiakin tuileh geiah a tu a; sunannek hun khawng ahi a.

⁶Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour noon .

⁷Huan, Samari numei khat tui tawiin a hongkuan a, Jesun a kiangah, Dawnding honpia in, a chi a.

⁷A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”

⁸A nungjuite lah nek ding leiin khua ah a hohta ngal ua.

⁸For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

⁹Huchiin, Samari numeiin a kiangah, Nang Juda mi na hi a, kei Samari numei ka hi ngala, bangchidan ahia ka kianga dawn ding non nget? a chi a. Judaten Samari mite bangmahin a zang ngei ngal kei ua.

⁹The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

¹⁰Huan, Jesun a dawnga, a kiangah, Pathian thilpiak leh, Dawn ding honpia in, na kianga chipa thei le tehjaw, nang a kianga ngen zota ding china, huchia aman tui hing honpe ta ding hi a, a chi a.

¹⁰Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”

¹¹Huan, numeiin a kiangah, Pu, suahna ding bangmah lah na neikeia, tuileh a thukthuk toh, koia kipanin ahia huai tui hing na muh?

¹¹The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. From where then have you that living water?

¹²Ka pu uh Jakob sangin na thupijaw ahia? Aman hiai tuileh honpia a, aman leng a dawna, a tate, a ganten leng, a chi a.

¹²Are you greater than our father, Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, as did his children, and his livestock?”

¹³Huan, Jesun a dawnga, a kiangah, Kuapeuh hiai tui dawn a dangtak nawn ding uh;

¹³Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

¹⁴Kuapeuh a kianga ka piak ding tui dawn bel, a dangtak ngei kei ding; ken a kiang a tui ka piak ding tuh amah ah tuinak a honghi dinga, khantawn hin phain a kikhohtou ding, a chi a.

¹⁴ but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”

¹⁵Huan, numeiin a kiangah, Pu, huai tui honpe ve, ka dangtak nawn louhna ding leh, hiai tantana tui tawi dinga ka hongkuan louhna din, a chi a.

¹⁵The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

¹⁶Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Na pasal va sam inla, hiaiah hongkik nawn in, a chi a.

¹⁶Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

¹⁷Huan, numeiin a kiangah, Pasal ka nei sama, a chi a, a dawnga, Jesun a kiangah, Pasal ka nei sama, na chih jaw, na chi dik ve;

¹⁷The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’

¹⁸Pasal nga na neita a, tu a na neihpa na pasal ahi kei him ahi, hiai thu na chi dik ve, a chi a.

¹⁸ for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”

¹⁹Numeiin a kiangah, Pu, jawlnei na hi chih ka theita.

¹⁹The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

²⁰Kou piputen hiai tangah Pathian a be jel ua; himahleh, nou bel, Mihingin Pathian a biakna mun ding uh Jerusalem khua ah a om, na chi sese ua, a chi a.

²⁰Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”

²¹Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Numei, ka thuhilh gingta in, hiai tangah chitchiat lou leng, Jerusalem khua chitchiat ah lou leng Pa na biak hun uh a tung dekta.

²¹Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, will you worship the Father.

²²Nou na theih louhpi uh na be nak ua; kou jaw ka theih uh ka bia uhi. Hotdamna Judate kianga kipan ahi ngala.

²² You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

²³Himahleh a hun a tung dekta, tuin leng a tungkhin lel, huai hun chiangin Pathian be taktakten kha leh thutaka Pa be ding uh ahi, Pan huchibang mi a bemi dingin a zong hi.

²³ But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshippers.

²⁴Pathian jaw Kha ahi; a bemiten kha leh thutaka a biak ngeingei ding uh ahi, a chi a.

²⁴ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

²⁵Huan, numeiin a kiangah, Messia, (Kris a chih uh) a hongpai ding chih ka thei, amah a hongpai chiangin bangkim a honhilh ding, a chi a.

²⁵The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah comes,” (he who is called Christ). “When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

²⁶Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Keimah nang honhoupihpa, huai amah ka hi, a chi a.

²⁶Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

²⁷Huan, huchihlaiin a nungjuite a hongpai ua, numei a houpih lamdang a sa mahmah ua; himahleh, kuamahin, Bang zong na hia? Bangdia numei houpih? leng a chi kei uh.

²⁷At this, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”

²⁸Huan, numeiin a tuibel a paisana, khua ah a vapaia, mite kiangah,

²⁸So the woman left her water pot, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

²⁹Ka thil hih peuh hon hilh jelpa mi khat a oma, hong unla, en dih uh; Kris a hih theih tuak hiam? a chi a.

²⁹“Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?”

³⁰Huan, amau tuh khua akipan a hongpawt ua, a kiang lam a juanta ua.

³⁰They went out of the city, and were coming to him.

³¹Huai kalin nungjuiten a kiangah, Sinsakpa, ne vo, a chi ua.

³¹In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”

³²Himahleh, aman, a kiang uah, An na theih louh uh nek ding ka nei, a chi a.

³²But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”

³³Huan, nungjuite a kihou ua, A nek ding min a hontawi sak ua eita maw? a kichi ua.

³³The disciples therefore said one to another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”

³⁴Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, a gena, Honsawlpa deihlam hih leh, a na sep zoh ding ka an ahi.

³⁴Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.

³⁵Nou, Buh lakna ding kha li a om lai, na chi uh hi lou hia? Ngai un kon hilh ahi, dak unla lou khawng en un, tu mahmahin lak dingin a min ahi.

³⁵ Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest?’ Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.

³⁶A lapain loh a mu a, khantawn hin tana om ding in gah a la, huchia a tuhpa leh a lapa a kipah tuak theihna dingun.

³⁶ He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to eternal life; that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

³⁷Khatin a tuha, midang in a la hi, chih thu, huai ah a dik ngel hi.

³⁷ For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’

³⁸Na sep gim louh uh at dia honsawl ka hi; mi dangin a sem ua, nou a sepsa uh na sunzom uh ahi, a chi a.

³⁸ I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”

³⁹Huan, numeiin, Ka thil hih peuh honhilh jel, chia, a theihsak thu jiakin, huai khuaa om Samari mi tampiin Jesu a gingta ua.

³⁹From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I did.”

⁴⁰Huchiin, Samari mite Jesu kiangah a hongpai ua, a kiang ua om dingin a khou ngutngut ua; huan, huaiah ni nih a tam hi.

⁴⁰So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.

⁴¹Huan, mi dang tampiin amah thu jiakin a gingta sam ta uhi.

⁴¹Many more believed because of his word.

⁴²Huan, amau, numei kiangah, Tun tuh na thu gen jiaka gingta ka hi kei uh; koumau ngeiin a thu ka ja ua, hiai mipa khovel Hondampa ahi ngei chih ka theita uh, a chi ua.

⁴²They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”

⁴³Huan, ni nih nungin huaia kipanin a pawta. Galili gamah a hohta a.

⁴³After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.

⁴⁴Jesu ngeiin, jawlnei jaw amah kho lamah pahtawiin a om ngei kei chih a theisaka.

⁴⁴For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

⁴⁵Huchiin, Galili gam a hongtunin Galili gama miten a na kipahpih ua, Jerusalem khuaa ankuanglui laia a thilhih tengteng a muh tak jiakun; amau mah leng ankuangluina ah a hohsam ngal ua.

⁴⁵So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

⁴⁶Huan, Galili gama Kana khua, tui uain a suahsak mun a hongtung nawnta a. Huan, upa kua hiam a om a, a tapa Kapernaum khua ah a chi a na a.

⁴⁶Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

⁴⁷Huan, Jesu Judia gama kipan Galili gamah a hong chih a jak takin a kiangah a hoh tou a, Va hohsuka a tapa vahihdamsak dingin achialchiala, a si dekdek ngala.

⁴⁷When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him, and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

⁴⁸Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Chiamtehnate leh thillamdangte na muh kei uh leh na gingta kei hial ding uh, a chi a.

⁴⁸Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”

⁴⁹Huan, upain a kiangah, Pu, ka ta sih main hongsuk tanla, a chi a.

⁴⁹The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”

⁵⁰Huan, Jesun a kiangah, Pai nawnta mai in, na tapa damta hi, a chi a. Huan, huai mipan Jesun a kianga thu a gen tuh a gingta a, a paita hi.

⁵⁰Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

⁵¹Huan, a pai suk lel laiin a sikhaten a na dawn ua, Na tapa a damta, a na chi ua.

⁵¹As he was now going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”

⁵²Huan, aman a kiang uah a dam tung lai a dong a. Huan, amau, a kiangah, Janin ni kihek lelin a khosik a daita ahi, a chi ua.

⁵²So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, 1:00 P. M. the fever left him.”

⁵³Huchiin, apan Jesun a kianga, Na tapa a damta hi, a chih lai ahi chih a theita a; huan amah leh a inkuanpihten a vek un, a gingta ta uhi.Huai tuh Jesun a thillamdang hih a nih veina ahi, Judia gam akipan Galili gama a hongin.

⁵³So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.

⁵⁴Huai tuh Jesun a thillamdang hih a nih veina ahi, Judia gam akipan Galili gama a hongin.

⁵⁴This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.
