The Second Passover
1 After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.
Baada ya hayo Yesu alikwenda zake ng'ambo ya Bahari ya Galilaya, nayo ndiyo ya Tiberia.
2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.
Na mkutano mkuu wakamfuata, kwa sababu waliziona ishara alizowafanyia wagonjwa.
3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.
Naye Yesu akakwea mlimani, akaketi huko pamoja na wanafunzi wake.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
Na Pasaka, sikukuu ya Wayahudi, ilikuwa karibu.
The Bread of Life
5 When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?
Basi Yesu alipoinua macho yake akaona mkutano mkuu wanakuja kwake, alimwambia Filipo, Tununue wapi mikate, ili hawa wapate kula?
6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
Na hilo alilinena ili kumjaribu; kwa maana alijua mwenyewe atakalotenda.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.
Filipo akamjibu, Mikate ya dinari mia mbili haiwatoshi, kila mmoja apate kidogo tu.
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,
Wanafunzi wake mmojawapo, Andrea, nduguye Simoni Petro, akamwambia,
9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
Yupo hapa mtoto, yuna mikate mitano ya shayiri na samaki wawili, lakini hivi ni nini kwa watu wengi kama hawa?
10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
Yesu akasema, Waketisheni watu. Na mahali pale palikuwa na majani tele. Basi watu waume wakaketi, wapata elfu tano jumla yao.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
Basi Yesu akaitwaa ile mikate, akashukuru, akawagawia walioketi; na kadhalika katika wale samaki kwa kadiri walivyotaka.
12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.
Nao waliposhiba, aliwaambia wanafunzi wake, Kusanyeni vipande vilivyobaki, kisipotee cho chote.
13 Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.
Basi wakavikusanya, wakajaza vikapu kumi na viwili, vipande vya mikate mitano ya shayiri vilivyowabakia wale waliokula.
14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
Basi watu wale, walipoiona ishara aliyoifanya, walisema, Hakika huyu ni nabii yule ajaye ulimwenguni.
15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.
Kisha Yesu, hali akitambua ya kuwa walitaka kuja kumshika ili wamfanye mfalme, akajitenga, akaenda tena mlimani yeye peke yake.
16 And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,
Hata ilipokuwa jioni wanafunzi wake wakatelemka baharini
17 and entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
wakapanda chomboni, wakaanza kuivuka bahari kwenda Kapernaumu. Nako kumekwisha kuwa giza, wala Yesu hajawafikia.
18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.
Na bahari ikaanza kuchafuka kwa kuvuma upepo mkuu.
19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they were afraid.
Basi wakavuta makasia kadiri ya maili tatu nne, wakamwona Yesu anakwenda juu ya bahari na kukikaribia chombo; wakaogopa.
20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.
Naye akawaambia, Ni mimi, msiogope.
21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.
Basi wakataka kumpokea chomboni; na mara hiyo chombo kikaifikilia nchi waliyokuwa wakiiendea.
22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
Siku ya pili yake mkutano waliosimama ng'ambo ya bahari waliona ya kuwa hakuna mashua nyingine huko ila moja, tena ya kuwa Yesu hakuingia katika mashua ile pamoja na wanafunzi wake, bali wanafunzi wake walikwenda peke yao.
23 (howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)
(Walakini zikaja mashua nyingine kutoka Tiberia mpaka karibu na mahali pale walipokula mikate, wakati Bwana aliposhukuru.)
24 when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.
Basi mkutano, walipoona ya kuwa Yesu hayuko huko wala wanafunzi wake, waliingia mashuani wenyewe, wakaenda Kapernaumu wakimtafuta Yesu.
25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
Hata walipomwona ng'ambo ya bahari, walimwambia, Rabi, wewe umekuja lini hapa?
26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
Yesu akawajibu, akasema, Amin, amin, nawaambieni, Ninyi mnanitafuta, si kwa sababu mliona ishara, bali kwa sababu mlikula ile mikate mkashiba.
27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
Msikitendee kazi chakula chenye kuharibika, bali chakula kidumucho hata uzima wa milele; ambacho Mwana wa Adamu atawapa, kwa sababu huyo ndiye aliyetiwa muhuri na Baba, yaani, Mungu.
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?
Basi wakamwambia, Tufanyeje ili tupate kuzitenda kazi za Mungu?
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.
Yesu akajibu, akawaambia, Hii ndiyo kazi ya Mungu, mmwamini yeye aliyetumwa na yeye.
30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
Wakamwambia, Unafanya ishara gani basi, ili tuione tukakuamini? Unatenda kazi gani?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
Baba zetu waliila mana jangwani kama vile ilivyoandikwa, Aliwapa chakula cha mbinguni ili wale.
32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.
Yesu akawaambia, Amin, amin, nawaambieni, Siye Musa aliyewapa chakula kile cha mbinguni, bali Baba yangu anawapa ninyi chakula cha kweli kitokacho mbinguni.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
Kwa maana chakula cha Mungu ni kile kishukacho kutoka mbinguni na kuupa ulimwengu uzima.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
Basi wakamwambia, Bwana, sikuzote utupe chakula hiki.
35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Yesu akawaambia, Mimi ndimi chakula cha uzima; yeye ajaye kwangu hataona njaa kabisa, naye aniaminiye hataona kiu kamwe.
36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.
Lakini naliwaambia ya kwamba mmeniona wala hamwamini.
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
Wote anipao Baba watakuja kwangu; wala ye yote ajaye kwangu sitamtupa nje kamwe.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
Kwa kuwa mimi sikushuka kutoka mbinguni ili niyafanye mapenzi yangu, bali mapenzi yake aliyenipeleka.
39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
Na mapenzi yake aliyenipeleka ni haya, ya kwamba katika wote alionipa nisimpoteze hata mmoja, bali nimfufue siku ya mwisho.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Kwa kuwa mapenzi yake Baba yangu ni haya, ya kwamba kila amtazamaye Mwana na kumwamini yeye, awe na uzima wa milele; nami nitamfufua siku ya mwisho.
41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
Basi Wayahudi wakamnung'unikia, kwa sababu alisema, Mimi ni chakula kilichoshuka kutoka mbinguni.
42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
Wakasema, Je! Huyu siye Yesu, mwana wa Yusufu, ambaye twamjua babaye na mamaye? Sasa asemaje huyu, Nimeshuka kutoka mbinguni?
43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
Basi Yesu akajibu, akawaambia, Msinung'unike ninyi kwa ninyi.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Hakuna mtu awezaye kuja kwangu, asipovutwa na Baba aliyenipeleka; nami nitamfufua siku ya mwisho.
45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.
Imeandikwa katika manabii, Na wote watakuwa wamefundishwa na Mungu. Basi kila aliyesikia na kujifunza kwa Baba huja kwangu.
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.
Si kwamba mtu amemwona Baba, ila yeye atokaye kwa Mungu; huyo ndiye aliyemwona Baba.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
Amin, amin, nawaambia, Yeye aaminiye yuna uzima wa milele.
48 I am that bread of life.
Mimi ndimi chakula cha uzima.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.
Baba zenu waliila mana jangwani; wakafa.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.
Hiki ni chakula kishukacho kutoka mbinguni, kwamba mtu akile wala asife.
51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
Mimi ndimi chakula chenye uzima kilichoshuka kutoka mbinguni; mtu akila chakula hiki, ataishi milele. Na chakula nitakachotoa mimi ni mwili wangu, kwa ajili ya uzima wa ulimwengu.
52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
Basi Wayahudi walishindana wao kwa wao wakisema, Awezaje mtu huyu kutupa sisi mwili wake ili tuule?
53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
Basi Yesu akawaambia, Amin, amin, nawaambieni, Msipoula mwili wake Mwana wa Adamu na kuinywa damu yake, hamna uzima ndani yenu.
54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
Aulaye mwili wangu na kuinywa damu yangu anao uzima wa milele; nami nitamfufua siku ya mwisho.
55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
Kwa maana mwili wangu ni chakula cha kweli, na damu yangu ni kinywaji cha kweli.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.
Aulaye mwili wangu na kuinywa damu yangu hukaa ndani yangu, nami hukaa ndani yake.
57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
Kama vile Baba aliye hai alivyonituma mimi, nami ni hai kwa Baba; kadhalika naye mwenye kunila atakuwa hai kwa mimi.
58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.
Hiki ndicho chakula kishukacho kutoka mbinguni; si kama mababa walivyokula, wakafa; bali akilaye chakula hicho ataishi milele.
59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
Maneno hayo aliyasema katika sinagogi, alipokuwa akifundisha, huko Kapernaumu.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this , said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
Basi watu wengi miongoni mwa wanafunzi wake waliposikia, walisema, Neno hili ni gumu, ni nani awezaye kulisikia?
61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?
Naye Yesu akafahamu nafsini mwake ya kuwa wanafunzi wake wanalinung'unikia neno hilo, akawaambia, Je! Neno hili linawakwaza?
62 What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
Itakuwaje basi, mmwonapo Mwana wa Adamu akipaa huko alikokuwako kwanza?
63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Roho ndiyo itiayo uzima, mwili haufai kitu; maneno hayo niliyowaambia ni roho, tena ni uzima.
64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.
Lakini kuna wengine miongoni mwenu wasioamini. Kwa maana Yesu alijua tangu mwanzo ni nani wasioamini, naye ni nani atakayemsaliti.
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
Akasema, Kwa sababu hiyo nimewaambia ya kwamba hakuna mtu awezaye kuja kwangu isipokuwa amejaliwa na Baba yangu.
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
Kwa ajili ya hayo wengi miongoni mwa wanafunzi wake wakarejea nyuma, wasiandamane naye tena.
67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
Basi Yesu akawaambia wale Thenashara, Je! Ninyi nanyi mwataka kuondoka?
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
Basi Simoni Petro akamjibu, Bwana! Twende kwa nani? Wewe unayo maneno ya uzima wa milele.
69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.
Nasi tumesadiki, tena tumejua, ya kuwa wewe ndiwe Mtakatifu wa Mungu.
70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
Yesu akawajibu, Je! Mimi sikuwachagua ninyi Thenashara, na mmoja wenu ni shetani?
71 He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.
Alimnena Yuda, mwana wa Simoni Iskariote; maana huyo ndiye atakayemsaliti; naye ni mmojawapo wa wale Thenashara.
