¹The third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there.

¹Huan, ni thum niin, Galili gama Kana khua ah kitenna a om a, huai ah Jesu nu a om hi.

²Jesus also was invited, with his disciples, to the marriage.

²Jesu leh a nungjuite leng kitenna ah achial ua.

³When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no wine.”

³Huan, uain a beita a, Jesu nun a kiangah, Uain a tasamta u e, a chi a.

⁴Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does that have to do with you and me? My hour has not yet come.”

⁴Huan, Jesuin a kiangah, Numei, nang non na theisak ding bang ahia om! ka hun a tungnai kei hi, a chi a.

⁵His mother said to the servants, “Whatever he says to you, do it.”

⁵Huan, a nun sikhate kiangah, Na kiang ua a gen peuhmah hih jel un, a chi a.

⁶Now there were six water pots of stone set there after the Jews’ way of purifying, containing two or three metretes 2 to 3 metretes is about 20 to 30 U. S. Gallons, or 75 to 115 litres. apiece.

⁶Huan, Jadate silsiang dan bangin suang tuibel guk, buk sawmli mun nih hiam, mun thum hiam ta chiat, huaiah a tung uhi.

⁷Jesus said to them, “Fill the water pots with water.” They filled them up to the brim.

⁷Huan, Jesun a kiang uah, Tuibelte tuiin dimsak un, a chi a. Huan, a gong toh kikimin a dimsak chiat ua.

⁸He said to them, “Now draw some out, and take it to the ruler of the feast.” So they took it.

⁸Huan, a kiang uah, Tuiin dim unla, nekbawl thusa kiangah paipih un, achia. Huan, a paipih ta uhi.

⁹When the ruler of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and didn’t know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the ruler of the feast called the bridegroom,

⁹Huan, nekbawl thusain, tui uain a hong suakta tuh achiama, a hongkipatna lam a theikei a, (tui dim sikhaten lah a thei ua), zi nei dingpa a samta a, a kiangah,

¹⁰and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when the guests have drunk freely, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now!”

¹⁰Mi chihin a tungin uain hoih deuh a hawm jel ua, a tamdeuh a dawn nungun, a hoihlou deuh a hawm uh; nang bel tutanin uain hoih na nakem lailaia, a chi a.

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

¹¹Jesun hiai a thillamdang hihpatna tuh Galili gam Kana khuaa a hih ahi; a thupidan a langsakta a; huan, a nungjuiten amah tuh a gingta uhi.

¹²After this, he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, his brothers, and his disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

¹²Huan, huai khitin Kapernaum khua ah a hoh suka, amah leh a nu toh, a unaute toh, a nungjuite toh; huaiah ni tam lou chik a om uhi.

¹³The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

¹³Huan, Jadate paikan Ankuangluina a naita a, Jesu Jerusalem khua ah a hohtou ta a.

¹⁴He found in the temple those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves, and the changers of money sitting.

¹⁴Huan, Pathian biakina bawng khawng, belam khawng, vakhu khawng juak leh, dangka khengte tu a mu a.

¹⁵He made a whip of cords, and threw all out of the temple, both the sheep and the oxen; and he poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew their tables.

¹⁵Huan, khauhualin jepna ding a bawla, belam leh bawngte a vek un Pathian biakina kipanin a delh khia a, dangka khengte dangka a sungbua a, a dohkante uh leng a sawnpuk saka;

¹⁶To those who sold the doves, he said, “Take these things out of here! Don’t make my Father’s house a marketplace!”

¹⁶huan, vakhu juakte kiangah, Hiai thilte hiai lai akipanin pai pih un, ka Pa in sumsinna in dingin bawl kei un, a chi a.

¹⁷His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for your house will eat me up.” Psalm 69:9

¹⁷Huan, Na ina ka phatuamngaihnain a hon gai ding, chih gelh ahi chih, a nungjuiten a thei nawnta uhi.

¹⁸The Jews therefore answered him, “What sign do you show us, seeing that you do these things?”

¹⁸Huchiin, Judaten a kiangah, Hiai thil na hih, chiamtehna bang ahia non lak theih? a chi ua, a dong ua.

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

¹⁹Jesun a kiang uah, Hiai in hihse le uchin, ni thum sungin ka tung ding nawn ding, a chi a, a dawng a.

²⁰The Jews therefore said, “It took forty-six years to build this temple! Will you raise it up in three days?”

²⁰Huan, Judaten, Hiai in kum sawmli leh guk lam ahi, nang ni thum sungin na tung ding ding maw? a chi ua.

²¹But he spoke of the temple of his body.

²¹Himahleh a sapum in thu gen ahi zo ngala.

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

²²Huai jiakin, misi laka kipana a thoh nawnin, huai thu tuh a genta chih a nungjuiten a thei nawnta ua; huan, laisiangthou thu Jesu thugen tuh a gingta uhi.

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

²³Huan, Paikan Ankuangluinaa, Jerusalem khuaa a om laiin, a thillam dang hihte a mu ua, mi tampiin a min a gingta ta uhi.

²⁴But Jesus didn’t trust himself to them, because he knew everyone,

²⁴Himahleh, Jesu tuh a lak uah a kikangkoiha, mi tengteng a theia,mihing thu kuamah hilh chet a kiphamoh louh jiakin; Amah mahin mihing sunga om peuhmah tuh a thei ngala.

²⁵and because he didn’t need for anyone to testify concerning man; for he himself knew what was in man.

²⁵mihing thu kuamah hilh chet a kiphamoh louh jiakin; Amah mahin mihing sunga om peuhmah tuh a thei ngala.
