1When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John
1Jesuh loh Johan lakah hnukbang muep a khueh tih a nuem te Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh tila Jesuh loh a ming.
2(although it was not Jesus who baptized, but His disciples),
2Tedae Jesuh amah long ngawn moenih, a hnukbang rhoek long ni a nuem.
3He left Judea and returned to Galilee.
3Judea te pak a hlah tih Galilee la koep cet.
4Now He had to pass through Samaria.
4Te vaengah Samaria te a hil phai ham a kuek.
5So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
5Te dongah Sychar la a khue Samaria kho puei kah Jakob loh a capa Joseph a paek khohmuen taeng te a pha.
6Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
6Teah te Jakob tuisih om. Te vaengah Jesuh tah yincaehnah lamloh thakthae tih tuisih taengah ngol.
7When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”
7Khonoek parhuk tluk a lo vaengah Samaria nu tah tui than la ha pawk. Anih te Jesuh loh, “ Ok ham kai m'pae lah,” a ti nah.
8(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
8Te vaengah a hnukbang rhoek tah kho khuiah caak lai hamla cet uh.
9“You are a Jew,” said the woman. “How can You ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
9Te dongah amah te Samaria nu loh, “Nang tah Judah hlang la aka om loh balae tih Samaria nu la aka om kai taengah ok ham te nan bih,” a ti nah. Judah rhoek neh Samaria rhoek he a doca uh moenih.
10Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
10Jesuh loh anih te a doo tih, “ Pathen kah kutdoe neh nang taengah aka cal te unim tila na ming koinih amah taengah ok ham kai pae lah ,’ tila na bih sui tih tui hing nang m'paek suidae,” a ti nah.
11“Sir,” the woman replied, “You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where then will You get this living water?
11Huta loh anih te, “Saya, tuiduen khaw na khueh pawh, tuito khaw a dung la om. Melam kah tui hing nim, na khueh tih?
12Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock?”
12A pa Jakob lakah tanglue la na om pawtnim? Tuito he amah loh kaimih m'paek tih he lamkah te amah long khaw, a ca rhoek neh a saelhung long khaw a ok,” a ti nah.
13Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.
13Jesuh loh anih te a doo tih, “ He kah tui aka o boeih tah koep hal ni .
14But whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a fount of water springing up to eternal life.”
14Tedae kai loh ka paek ham tui te aka o tah kumhal ah hal tlaih mahpawh. Te phoeiah anih ka paek ham tui te tah dungyan hingnah ham anih ah aka phuet tuisih tui la om ni,” a ti nah.
15The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water so that I will not get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
15Amah te huta loh, “Saya, te tui te kai m'pae lah. Te daengah ni tui ka hal pawt vetih tuithan la ka pawk pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
16Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
16Amah te, “ Cet, na va te khue lamtah hela ha lo,” a ti nah.
17“I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her, “You are correct to say that you have no husband.
17Huta loh a doo tih, “Va ka khueh moenih,” a ti nah. Jesuh loh anih te, “ Va ka khueh pawh balh na ti .
18In fact, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. You have spoken truthfully.”
18Va panga na khueh coeng dae tahae kah na khueh te na va la a om moenih, oltak te thui saw,” a ti nah.
19“Sir,” the woman said, “I see that You are a prophet.
19Huta loh Jesuh te, “Boeipa, nang tah tonghma ni tila kan hmat coeng.
20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
20A pa rhoek loh hekah tlang ah bawk uh. Tedae nangmih long tah Jerusalem kah aka om hmuen ah te a bawk ham a kuek na ti uh ,” a ti nah.
21“Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
21Jesuh loh anih te, “ Huta aw, kai he n'tangnah lah. Tekah a tue ha pawk vaengah hekah tlang pawt ah khaw, Jerusalem pawt ah khaw pa te na bawk uh bitni .
22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.
22Nangmih loh na bawk uh te na ming uh pawh. Kaimih tah ka bawk uh te ka ming uh. Khangnah khaw Judah rhoek lamkah ni a om .
23But a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such as these to worship Him.
23Tedae a tue ha pai tih om coeng. Bawkkung taktak rhoek long tah pa te Mueihla neh oltak dongah a bawk uh ni. Amah aka bawk rhoek van te ni pa loh a toem .
24God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”
24Pathen tah Mueihla ni. Te dongah amah aka bawk loh mueihla neh oltak ah bawk ham a kuek,” a ti nah.
25The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”
25Amah te huta loh, “Khrih la a khue Messiah te ha pawk tila ka ming. Te te ha pawk vaengah soeprhaep boeih te kaimih taengah ha puen ni,” a ti nah.
26Jesus answered, “I who speak to you am He.”
26Jesuh loh anih te, “ Te tah nang taengah aka cal kamah ni,” a ti nah.
27Just then His disciples returned and were surprised that He was speaking with a woman. But no one asked Him, “What do You want from her?” or “Why are You talking with her?”
27Te vaengah te a hnukbang rhoek te ha pawk uh tih huta taengah a cal te a ngaihmang uh. Tedae, “Balae na toem tih balae tih anih te na voek?” ti na uh pawh.
28Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,
28Te dongah huta loh a amrhaeng te a toeng tih kho khuila cet.
29“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”
29Te phoeiah a hlang rhoek te, “Halo uh lah, ka saii boeih aka thui hlang te so uh lah. Anih tah Khrih la om pawtnim?” a ti nah.
30So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.
30Te dongah khopuei lamloh cet uh tih amah te a paan uh.
31Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
31Te rhuet ah amah te hnukbang rhoek loh a dawt uh tih, “Rhabbi, ca laeh saw,” a ti na uh.
32But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
32Tedae amih te, “ Kai loh caak ham caak ka khueh te na ming uh moenih,” a ti nah.
33So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
33Te dongah hnukbang rhoek loh amamih te, “Khat khat loh a caak koi khuen pah pawtnim,” a ti uh.
34Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
34Jesuh loh amih te, “ Kai aka tueih kah kongaih saii ham neh amah kah bibi coeng ham te kai kah cakok la om .
35Do you not say, ‘There are still four months until the harvest’? I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are ripe for harvest.
35Nangmih loh , ' Cangah pha ham hlali om pueng tila na ti uh moenih a? Nangmih taengah ka thui, na mik te dai uh lamtah dan uh, hmuenlung te cangaeng neh cangah ham om coeng ke .
36Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
36Aka at loh thapang a dang tih dungyan hingnah dongah cangthaih a coi coeng. Te daengah ni aka tuh neh aka at loh thikat la a omngaih eh .
37For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
37Hekah ol tah oltak pai ni. Aka tuh khaw a tloe, aka at khaw a tloe la om pai .
38I sent you to reap what you have not worked for; others have done the hard work, and now you have taken up their labor.”
38Kai loh cangat la nangmih kan tueih te na thakthae moenih, a tloe rhoek tah thakthae uh. Te dongah amih kah thakthaenah khuiah na kun uh coeng,” a ti nah.
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
39Huta loh, “ Ka saii boeih te kamah taengah a thui coeng, “tila ol a phong. Te dongah kho khui lamkah Samaria rhoek loh Jesuh te muep a tangnah uh.
40So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
40Te dongah Samaria rhoek loh amah taengla a pawk uh vaengah amah te amih taengah rhaeh sak ham a bih uh dongah hnin nit pahoi rhaeh.
41And many more believed because of His message.
41Te vaengah a ol aka tangnah khaw taoe yet.
42They said to the woman, “We now believe not only because of your words; we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man truly is the Savior of the world.”
42Te phoeiah huta te, “Na olcal dongah ka tangnah uh pawt dae kaimih loh ka yaak uh daengah ni he tah Diklai kah khangkung la om tangtang tila ka ming uh ,” a ti nauh.
43After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.
43Hnin nit phoeiah te lamloh Galilee la cet.
44Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.
44Tonghma loh amah tolrhum ah hinyahnah a dang pawt te khaw Jesuh amah loh a phong coeng.
45Yet when He arrived, the Galileans welcomed Him. They had seen all the great things He had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they had gone there as well.
45Khotue vaengkah Jerusalem ah a saii boeih te a hmuh uh. Amih khaw khotue te a paan uh. Te dongah Galilee la ha pawk vaengah tah Galilee rhoek loh amah a doe uh.
46So once again He came to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.
46Te dongah Galilee kah Kana la koep pawk. Te ah ni tui khaw misurtui la a saii. Te vaengah Kapernaum ah capa aka tlo rhalboei pakhat te ana om.
47When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was about to die.
47Judea lamloh Galilee la Jesuh a pawk te anih loh a yaak vaengah a taeng la cet tih, “Duek hamla aka om a capa te hoeih sak ham ha suntla dae,” tila a bih.
48Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”
48Te dongah Jesuh loh anih te, “ Miknoek neh khobae rhambae na hmuh uh pawt atah na tangnah uh tlaih pawh,” a ti nah.
49“Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”
49Rhalboei loh amah taengah, “Boeipa, ka capa te a duek hlan ah ha suntla dae,” a ti nah.
50“Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.
50Jesuh loh anih te , “ Cet laeh, na capa te hing coeng,” a ti nah. Jesuh loh anih taengah a thui olka te a tangnah dongah tekah hlang khaw cet.
51And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
51A suntlak neh anih te a sal rhoek loh oepsoeh la a doe uh tih a capa a hing pah te a thui pa uh.
52So he inquired as to the hour when his son had recovered, and they told him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.”
52Te dongah a then la a om nah a tue te amih taengah a cae. Te vaengah, “ Hlaem khonoek parhih vaengah a satloh loh a hlah,” a ti na uh.
53Then the father realized that this was the very hour in which Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” And he and all his household believed.
53Te dongah Jesuh loh anih te , “ Na capa te hing coeng,” a ti nah vaeng kah a tue te te vaeng ah ni tila ana pa loh a ming dongah amah neh a im pum loh a tangnah uh.
54This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.
54He he Judea lamkah loh Galilee la ha pawk vaengah Jesuh loh koep a saii a miknoek pabae ni.
