¹ Bi ñu ca tegee ab diir, Yeesu feeñuwaat na ay taalibeem ca tefesu dex gu ñuy wax Tiberyàdd. Nii la deme woon:

¹After these things did Jesus manifest himself again to the disciples on the sea of Tiberias, and he did manifest himself thus:

² Taalibey Yeesu yii àndoon nañu: Simoŋ Piyeer; Tomaa, ki turam di tekki «Séex bi;» Nataneel, mi dëkk Kana ca diiwaanu Galile; doomi Sebede ak yeneen ñaari taalibe.

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

³ Simoŋ Piyeer ne leen: «Maa ngi nappi.» Ñu ne ko: «Nun it danuy ànd ak yaw.» Ñu dugg gaal, daldi dem. Waaye guddi googu jàppuñu dara.

³Simon Peter saith to them, `I go away to fish;` they say to him, `We go — we also — with thee;` they went forth and entered into the boat immediately, and on that night they caught nothing.

⁴ Ci fajar gi Yeesu taxaw ca tefes ga, waaye taalibe yi xàmmiwuñu ko.

⁴And morning being now come, Jesus stood at the shore, yet indeed the disciples did not know that it is Jesus;

⁵ Yeesu ne leen nag: «Bokk yi, xanaa jàppuleen jën?» Ñu ne ko: «Déedéet.»

⁵Jesus, therefore, saith to them, `Lads, have ye any meat?`

⁶ Mu ne leen: «Sànnileen mbaal mi ci ndeyjooru gaal gi, bu ko defee ngeen jàpp.» Ñu sànni fa mbaal ma, mu fees ak jën, ba mënuñu ko woon a génne ndox mi.

⁶they answered him, `No;` and he said to them, `Cast the net at the right side of the boat, and ye shall find;` they cast, therefore, and no longer were they able to draw it, from the multitude of the fishes.

⁷ Taalibe ba Yeesu bëggoon, ne Piyeer: «Boroom bi la!» Bi Simoŋ Piyeer déggee loolu, dafa woddoo mbubbam, ndaxte dafa summeeku woon, daldi sóobu ci dex gi.

⁷That disciple, therefore, whom Jesus was loving saith to Peter, `The Lord it is!` Simon Peter, therefore, having heard that it is the Lord, did gird on the outer coat, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea;

⁸ Yeneen taalibe ya xëcc mbaal, mi fees dell ak jën, jëme ko ca tefes ga, ndaxte gaal ga sorewul woon; diggante bi waroon na tollook téeméeri meetar.

⁸and the other disciples came by the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but as it were about two hundred cubits off, dragging the net of the fishes;

⁹ Bi ñu teeree, ñu gis ab taal, ñu ciy lakk ay jën, teg mburu ca wet ga.

⁹when, therefore, they came to the land, they behold a fire of coals lying, and a fish lying on it, and bread.

¹⁰ Yeesu ne leen: «Indileen ci jën, yi ngeen jàpp.»

¹⁰Jesus saith to them, `Bring ye from the fishes that ye caught now;`

¹¹ Simoŋ Piyeer yéeg ca gaal ga, daldi xëcc mbaal ma ca tefes ga, mu fees dell ak jën yu mag; matoon na téeméeri jën ak juróom-fukk ak ñett. Te li muy baree-bare lépp, taxul mbaal ma dog.

¹¹Simon Peter went up, and drew the net up on the land, full of great fishes, an hundred fifty and three, and though they were so many, the net was not rent.

¹² Yeesu ne leen: «Ñëwleen ndékki.» Kenn ci taalibe yi ñemewu koo laaj ki mu doon, ndaxte xam nañu ne, Boroom bi la.

¹²Jesus saith to them, `Come ye, dine;` and none of the disciples was venturing to inquire of him, `Who art thou?` knowing that it is the Lord;

¹³ Yeesu jegeñsi, jël mburu mi, jox leen, jox leen it jën.

¹³Jesus, therefore, doth come and take the bread and give to them, and the fish in like manner;

¹⁴ Bi Yeesu dekkee ba tey, bii mooy ñetteelu yoon, bi mu feeñoo ay taalibeem.

¹⁴this [is] now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples, having been raised from the dead.

¹⁵ Bi ñu ndékkee ba noppi, Yeesu ne Simoŋ Piyeer: «Simoŋ doomu Yowaana, ndax gën nga maa bëgg, ni ma ñii bëgge?» Mu tontu ko ne: «Aaŋkay, Boroom bi, xam nga ne, bëgg naa la.» Yeesu ne ko: «Topptool ma sama mbote yi.»

¹⁵When, therefore, they dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, `Simon, [son] of Jonas, dost thou love me more than these?` he saith to him, `Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;` he saith to him, `Feed my lambs.`

¹⁶ Noonu mu waxaat ko ne: «Simoŋ doomu Yowaana, ndax bëgg nga ma?» Mu ne ko: «Aaŋkay, Boroom bi, xam nga ne, bëgg naa la.» Yeesu ne ko: «Sàmmal ma sama xar yi.»

¹⁶He saith to him again, a second time, `Simon, [son] of Jonas, dost thou love me?` he saith to him, `Yes, Lord; thou hast known that I dearly love thee;` he saith to him, `Tend my sheep.`

¹⁷ Mu neeti ko ñetteel bi yoon: «Simoŋ doomu Yowaana, bëgg nga maam?» Piyeer am naqar ci li mu ko laaj ñetti yoon: «Ndax bëgg nga ma?» Mu tontu ko ne: «Boroom bi, xam nga lépp; xam nga ne bëgg naa la.» Yeesu ne ko: «Topptool ma sama xar yi.

¹⁷He saith to him the third time, `Simon, [son] of Jonas, dost thou dearly love me?` Peter was grieved that he said to him the third time, `Dost thou dearly love me?` and he said to him, `Lord, thou hast known all things; thou dost know that I dearly love thee.` Jesus saith to him, `Feed my sheep;

¹⁸ Ci dëgg-dëgg Piyeer, maa ngi la koy wax, bi nga dee ndaw yaa doon takk sa geño, di dem fu la neex. Waaye boo màggatee, dinga tàllal say loxo, keneen takkal la sa geño, yóbbu la foo bëggul.»

¹⁸verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast younger, thou wast girding thyself and wast walking whither thou didst will, but when thou mayest be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and shall carry [thee] whither thou dost not will;`

¹⁹ Ci baat yooyu la Yeesu doon misaale nan la Piyeer war a faatoo ngir jollil ndamu Yàlla. Noonu Yeesu ne ko: «Toppal ci man!»

¹⁹and this he said, signifying by what death he shall glorify God; and having said this, he saith to him, `Be following me.`

²⁰ Piyeer geestu, gis taalibe bi Yeesu bëggoon, di ñëw ci seen gannaaw. Taalibe boobu mooy ki sóonu woon ca Yeesu, ba ñuy lekk, te laajoon ko ne: «Boroom bi, kan moo lay wori?»

²⁰And Peter having turned about doth see the disciple whom Jesus was loving following, (who also reclined in the supper on his breast, and said, `Sir, who is he who is delivering thee up?`)

²¹ Piyeer gis ko, daldi ne Yeesu: «Kii nag, Boroom bi, nu muy mujje?»

²¹Peter having seen this one, saith to Jesus, `Lord, and what of this one?`

²² Yeesu ne ko: «Su ma neexoon mu dund, ba ma dellusi, lu ciy sa yoon? Yaw toppal ci man.»

²²Jesus saith to him, `If him I will to remain till I come, what — to thee? be thou following me.` This word, therefore, went forth to the brethren that that disciple doth not die,

²³ Noonu am, ci bokki taalibe yi, ñu xalaat ne, taalibe boobu du dee. Moona Yeesu musul ne Piyeer, du dee; waaye li mu wax mooy: «Su ma neexoon mu dund, ba ma dellusi, lu ciy sa yoon?»

²³yet Jesus did not say to him, that he doth not die, but, `If him I will to remain till I come, what — to thee?`

²⁴ Taalibe boobu mooy seede mbir yooyu, bind leen, te xam nanu ne, li muy wax dëgg la.

²⁴this is the disciple who is testifying concerning these things, and he wrote these things, and we have known that his testimony is true.

²⁵ Yeesu def na yeneen jëf yu bare. Su ñu ko doon nettali, bind lépp, xalaat naa ne, téere yi duñu xaj ci àddina.

²⁵And there are also many other things — as many as Jesus did — which, if they may be written one by one, not even the world itself I think to have place for the books written. Amen.
