Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John
1Jesus el etu lah mwet Pharisee elos lohng tuh pus mwet el baptaisela, oayapa pus mwet tuma lutlut lal lukel John.
2(although it was not Jesus who baptized, but His disciples),
2(Pwayeiya uh, Jesus sifacna el tiana baptaisela kutena mwet. Mwet tumal lutlut mukena pa baptaisi mwet.)
3He left Judea and returned to Galilee.
3Ouinge ke Jesus el lohng ma fwack inge, el fahsr liki acn Judea ac som nu Galilee.
4Now He had to pass through Samaria.
4Ke el folok nu Galilee, el enenu in fahsr sasla acn Samaria.
5So He came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob had given to his son Joseph.
5Na el sun sie siti srisrik in Samaria pangpang Sychar, ma apkuran nu ke ipin acn se ma Jacob el tuh sang lal Joseph, wen natul.
6Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
6Lufin kof lal Jacob oan we, ac Jesus el pituki siska ke sripen el totola ke fahsr lal. Pacl se inge apkuran nu ke infulwen len.
7When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”
7Sie mutan Samaria el tuku in ut kof, ac Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Ase nimuk kutu kof an.”
8(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
8(Mwet tumal lutlut elos som tari in moul mongo in siti 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.)
9Mutan sac fahk, “Kom sie mwet Jew, a nga mwet Samaria se — na fuka tuh kom ku in ngusr kof sik kom in nim?” (Mwet Jew tia ku in orekmakin ahlu ma mwet Samaria orekmakin.)
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.”
10Jesus el fahk, “Kom tia etu ke mwe sang ma God El akoo in sot nu sum, ac kom tia pac etu lah su siyuk mwe nim sum. Kom funu etu, kom lukun siyuk sik ac nga sot nu sum kof in moul.”
11“Sir,” the woman replied, “You have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where then will You get this living water?
11Ac mutan sac fahk, “Leum se, wangin mwe ut kof lom, ac lufin kof se inge loal. Kom ac eis kof in moul an fuka?
12Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and his livestock?”
12Jacob, papa matu tumasr, pa pukanak lufin kof se inge ac likiya nu sesr. El, ac wen natul, ac un kosro natul nukewa elos nim kof kac. Ya kom pangon kom yohk lukel Jacob?”
13Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.
13Jesus el topuk, “Kutena mwet su nim kof se inge fah sifilpa malu,
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.”
14a kutena mwet su nim ke kof se ma nga fah sang nu sel, ac fah tiana sifilpa malu. Tuh kof se ma nga fah sang nu sel ac fah ekla sie unon in kof in el, su ac fah sang nu sel kof in moul, oayapa moul ma pahtpat.”
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.”
15Ac mutan sac fahk, “Leum se, use nimuk kutu kof sacn! Na nga fah tia sifilpa malu, ac nga fah tia enenu in tuku nu inse inge in ut kof.”
16Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
16Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Fahla solama mukul tomom an, na komtal foloko nu yuruk.”
17“I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her, “You are correct to say that you have no husband.
17Ac mutan sac fahk, “Wangin mukul tumuk.” Jesus el fahk, “Pwaye fahk lom an lah wangin mukul tomom.
18In fact, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. You have spoken truthfully.”
18Kom tuh payuk sin mukul limekosr, ac mukul se kom muta yoro inge tia ma tomom. Kom kaskas pwaye nu sik.”
19“Sir,” the woman said, “I see that You are a prophet.
19Na mutan sac fahk, “Nga akilen tuh kom mwet palu se.
20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where one must worship is in Jerusalem.”
20Mwet matu tumuk meet ah elos tuh alu nu sin God fineol soko inge, a kowos mwet Jew fahk mu Jerusalem mukena pa acn se ma fal mwet uh in alu nu sin God we.”
21“Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
21Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Mutan, lulalfongiyu, mweyen pacl se ac tuku ke mwet fah tia alu nu sin Papa fineol soko inge ku in Jerusalem.
22You worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews.
22Kowos mwet Samaria tia arulana etu lah su kowos alu nu se, tusruktu kut mwet Jew etu lah su kut alu nu se, mweyen molela lun God nu sin mwet uh ac tuku ke mwet Jew.
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.
23Tusruktu pacl se ac tuku, aok tuku tari, ke mwet alu pwaye elos ac kolyuk ke ngun in alu nu sin Papa fal nu ke ma pwaye. Pa inge elos su Papa El suk in alu nu sel.
24God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”
24God El Ngun, ac ku lun Ngun lal mukena pa oru mwet uh in alu nu sel ke pwaye.”
25The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”
25Mutan sac fahk nu sel, “Nga etu lah Messiah el ac tuku — el su kut pangon ‘Christ.’ Ac ke el ac tuku el fah aketeya ma nukewa nu sesr.”
26Jesus answered, “I who speak to you am He.”
26Ac Jesus el fahk, “Nga pa el, nga su kaskas nu sum.”
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?”
27In pacl sac mwet tumal lutlut lun Jesus elos foloko, ac elos arulana lut in liye lah el kaskas nu sin mutan se. Tusruktu wangin sie selos fahk nu sin mutan sac, “Mea kom lungse?” ku siyuk sin Jesus, “Efu kom ku sramsram nu sin mutan sac?”
28Then the woman left her water jar, went back into the town, and said to the people,
28Na mutan sac filiya sufa in kof lal ac folokla nu in siti uh, ac fahk nu sin mwet we,
29“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”
29“Fahsru liye mwet se su fahkma nu sik ma nukewa nga oru meet ah. Ya acnu tia el pa Christ?”
30So they left the town and made their way toward Jesus.
30Ouinge elos som liki siti uh ac tuku nu yurin Jesus.
31Meanwhile the disciples urged Him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
31In pacl sac, mwet lutlut elos kwafe sin Jesus, “Mwet Luti, eiswin kutu mwe mongo uh!”
32But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
32A el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Oasr mwe mongo nak ma kowos tia etu kac.”
33So the disciples asked one another, “Could someone have brought Him food?”
33Ouinge mwet tumal lutlut elos mutawauk in asiyuki inmasrlolos sifacna, “Ya oasr mwet use mwe mongo nu yorol?”
34Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.
34Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Mwe mongo nak pa in akos ma lungse lun El su supweyume, ac in aksafye orekma El ase nu sik in oru.
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.
35Oasr soakas se lowos ma fahk mu, ‘Malem akosr lula na pacl in kosrani.’ Tusruktu nga fahk nu suwos, ngetla liye imae akwoya. Fahko kac matula inge, ac akola nu ke kosrani!
36Already the reaper draws his wages and gathers a crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may rejoice together.
36Mwet se su kosrani el eis molin kosrani lal ke el eisani fahko nu ke moul ma pahtpat. Ke ma inge, el su yukwiya ac el su sifani fah tukeni engan.
37For in this case the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true.
37Tuh soakas sac pwaye ma fahk mu, ‘Sie mwet yukwiya, ac sie pacna mwet fah kosrani.’
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.”
38Nga supwekowosla in eisani fahko in sie ima ma kowos tia orekma kac. Kutena mwet tuh orekma kac, a kowos eis woiyen orekma lalos.”
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Jesus because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.”
39Mwet puspis sin mwet Samaria in siti sac lulalfongi ke Jesus ke sripen mutan sac fahk, “El fahkma nu sik ma nukewa su nga tuh oru meet ah.”
40So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.
40Ouinge ke mwet Samaria elos tuku nu yurin Jesus, elos kwafe sel elan muta yorolos, na el muta we len luo.
41And many more believed because of His message.
41Mwet puspis wi pac lulalfongi ke sripen fahkak lal,
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.”
42ac elos fahk nu sin mutan sac, “Inge kut lulalfongi, tia ke sripen ma kom fahk, a ke sripen kut sifacna lohngol, ac kut etu lah pwaye, el pa Mwet Lango lun faclu.”
43After two days, Jesus left for Galilee.
43Tukun Jesus el muta we ke len luo, el mukuiyak ac som nu Galilee.
44Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.
44El tuh sifacna fahk, “Sie mwet palu el tia akfulatyeyuk in facl sel sifacna.”
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.
45Ke el sun acn Galilee, mwet in acn sac paingul mweyen elos wi som nu ke Kufwen Alukela se ma orek Jerusalem, ac elos tuh liye ma nukewa ma el oru ke pacl in kufwa sac.
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.
46Toko Jesus el folokla nu Cana in Galilee, acn se ma el tuh ekulla kof nu ke wain we. Oasr sie mwet fulat lun government tuh muta we su wen se natul mas in acn Capernaum.
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.
47Ke el lohng lah Jesus el tuku liki acn Judea nu Galilee, el som nu yorol ac siyuk sel elan som nu Capernaum ac akkeyala wen se natul, su apkuran in misa.
48Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”
48Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Kowos fin tia liye orekma usrnguk ku mwenmen, kowos fah tia lulalfong.”
49“Sir,” the official said, “come down before my child dies.”
49Na mwet sac fahk, “Leum, fahsru wiyu meet liki tulik se nutik ah misa.”
50“Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.
50Jesus el fahk nu sel, “Fahsrot, wen nutum el ac moul na!” Mwet sac lulalfongi kas lun Jesus ac el som.
51And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.
51Ke el srakna fahsr inkanek uh, mwet kulansap lal ah sonol ac fahk nu sel, “Wen nutum el kwela!”
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.”
52El siyuk selos lah ac pacl su wen se natul ah kwela, ac elos topuk, “Fol lal ah wanginla lukel ke ao se ma tafun len tok ekea.”
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.
53Na papa sac esamak lah ac ao sac pacna pa Jesus el fahkang nu sel mu, “Wen nutum el ac moul na.” Ouinge el, ac sou lal nukewa lulalfongila.
54This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.
54Pa inge mwenmen se akluo ma Jesus el oru tukun el foloko liki acn Judea nu Galilee.
