¹Shure kwezvinhu izvi Jesu wakazviratidzazve kuvadzidzi pagungwa reTibheriasi; uye wakazviratidza sezvizvi:

¹After these things Jesus manifested himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he manifested [himself] thus.

²Vaiva pamwe Simoni Petro, naTomasi unonzi Dhidhimo, naNatanieri waibva Kana yeGarirea, nevanakomana vaZebhedhi, nevamwe vaviri vevadzidzi vake.

²There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael who was of Cana of Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

³Simoni Petro akati kwavari: Ndoenda kunobata hove. Vakati kwaari: Nesu toenda newe. Vakabuda ndokupinda muchikepe pakarepo, asi usiku uhwo havana kubata chinhu.

³Simon Peter says to them, I go to fish. They say to him, We also come with thee. They went forth, and went on board, and that night took nothing.

⁴Zvino kwakati kwava mambakwedza, Jesu akamira pamahombekombe, asi vadzidzi havana kuziva kuti ndiJesu.

⁴And early morn already breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; the disciples however did not know that it was Jesus.

⁵Naizvozvo Jesu wakati kwavari: Vana vaduku, mune chero usavi here? Vakamupindura, vachiti: Kwete.

⁵Jesus therefore says to them, Children, have ye anything to eat? They answered him, No.

⁶Ndokuti kwavari: Kandai mumbure kurutivi rwerudyi rwechikepe, uye muchawana. Naizvozvo vakakanda, zvino vakasazogonazve kurukweva nekuwanda kwehove.

⁶And he said to them, Cast the net at the right side of the ship and ye will find. They cast therefore, and they could no longer draw it, from the multitude of fishes.

⁷Naizvozvo mudzidzi uya Jesu waaida wakati kuna Petro: NdiIshe. Ipapo Simoni Petro anzwa kuti ndiIshe, wakamonera nguvo yake yekunze (nekuti wakange akashama), akazviwisira mugungwa.

⁷That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved says to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter therefore, having heard that it was the Lord, girded his overcoat [on him] (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea;

⁸Asi vamwe vadzidzi vakauya nechikepe chidiki, vachikweva mumbure une hove, nekuti vakange vasiri kure nenyika, asi mbimbi dzinenge mazana maviri.

⁸and the other disciples came in the small boat, for they were not far from the land, but somewhere about two hundred cubits, dragging the net of fishes.

⁹Zvino vakati vachisvika panyika, vakaona moto wemazimbe, nehove yakaradzikwa pamusoro pawo, nechingwa.

⁹When therefore they went out on the land, they see a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

¹⁰Jesu akati kwavari: Uisai dzimwe dzehove dzamabata ikozvino.

¹⁰Jesus says to them, Bring of the fishes which ye have now taken.

¹¹Simoni Petro akakwira, akakwevera mumbure panyika, uzere nehove huru, zana nemakumi mashanu nenhatu; uye kunyange dzaiva zhinji dzakadai, mumbure hauna kubvaruka.

¹¹Simon Peter went up and drew the net to the land full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there were so many, the net was not rent.

¹²Jesu akati kwavari: Uyai mudye. Asi hakuna kuvadzidzi wakatsunga kumubvunza kuti: Ndimwi ani imwi? Vachiziva kuti ndiIshe.

¹²Jesus says to them, Come [and] dine. But none of the disciples dared inquire of him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

¹³Naizvozvo Jesu wakauya, ndokutora chingwa, akavapa, nehove saizvozvo.

¹³Jesus comes and takes the bread and gives it to them, and the fish in like manner.

¹⁴Urwu rwatova rwechitatu Jesu achizviratidza kuvadzidzi vake, amutswa kuvakafa.

¹⁴This is already the third time that Jesus had been manifested to the disciples, being risen from among [the] dead.

¹⁵Zvino vakati vadya, Jesu akati kuna Simoni Petro: Simoni waJona, unondida kupfuura ava here? Akati kwaari: Hongu Ishe; imwi munoziva kuti ndinokudai. Akati kwaari: Chedza makwayana angu.

¹⁵When therefore they had dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Feed my lambs.

¹⁶Akati kwaarizve rwechipiri: Simoni waJona, unondida here? Akati kwaari: Hongu Ishe; imwi munoziva kuti ndinokudai. Akati kwaari: Fudza makwai angu.

¹⁶He says to him again a second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Shepherd my sheep.

¹⁷Akati kwaari rwechitatu: Simoni waJona, unondida here? Petro akarwadziwa nekuti wakati kwaari rwechitatu: Unondida here? Akati kwaari: Ishe, imwi munoziva zvinhu zvose; munoziva kuti ndinokudai. Jesu akati kwaari: Chedza makwai angu.

¹⁷He says to him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, art thou attached to me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Art thou attached to me? and said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep.

¹⁸Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwauri: Pawaiva muduku, waizvisunga bhande, uchifamba kwawaida; asi kana wakwegura, uchatandavadza maoko ako, uye umwe uchakusunga bhande, achikuisa kwausingadi.

¹⁸Verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst where thou desiredst; but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and bring thee where thou dost not desire.

¹⁹Wakareva izvi, achitaridza kuti mafiro rudzii aaizokudza Mwari nawo. Zvino wakati areva izvi, akati kwaari: Nditevere.

¹⁹But he said this signifying by what death he should glorify God. And having said this, he says to him, Follow me.

²⁰Petro achitendeuka wakaona mudzidzi Jesu waaida achitevera, ndiyewo wakasendamira pachifuva chake pachirayiro, akati: Ishe, ndiani uchakutengesai?

²⁰Peter, turning round, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also leaned at supper on his breast, and said, Lord, who is it that delivers thee up?

²¹Petro wakati achimuona akati kuna Jesu: Ishe, ko uyu?

²¹Peter, seeing him, says to Jesus, Lord, and what [of] this [man]?

²²Jesu akati kwaari: Kana ndikada kuti agare kusvikira ndichiuya, unei nazvo? Nditevere iwe.

²²Jesus says to him, If I will that he abide until I come, what [is that] to thee? Follow thou me.

²³Zvino shoko iro rakabudira pakati pehama, kuti mudzidzi uyu haazofi; asi Jesu haana kureva kwaari, kuti haazofi; asi wakati: Kana ndichida kuti agare kusvikira ndichiuya, unei nazvo?

²³This word therefore went out among the brethren, That disciple does not die. And Jesus did not say to him, He does not die; but, If I will that he abide until I come, what [is that] to thee?

²⁴Ndiyeyu mudzidzi unopupura zvezvinhu izvi, nekunyora zvinhu izvi; uye tinoziva kuti uchapupu hwake ichokwadi.

²⁴This is the disciple who bears witness concerning these things, and who has written these things; and we know that his witness is true.

²⁵Uyewo zvimwe zvizhinji zviriko Jesu zvaakaita; kana zvainyorwa chimwe nechimwe, ndinofunga kuti kunyange nyika pachayo haizaiva nenzvimbo yemabhuku anganyorwa. Amen.

²⁵And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they were written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself would contain the books written.
