1 ωσ ουν εγνω ο κυριοσ οτι ηκουσαν οι φαρισαιοι οτι ιησουσ πλειονασ μαθητασ ποιει και βαπτιζει η ιωαννησ
1 DE manera que como Jesús entendió que los Fariseos habían oído que Jesús hacía y bautizaba más discípulos que Juan,
1 Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John
2 καιτοιγε ιησουσ αυτοσ ουκ εβαπτιζεν αλλ οι μαθηται αυτου
2 (Aunque Jesús no bautizaba, sino sus discípulos),
2 (although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),
3 αφηκεν την ιουδαιαν και απηλθεν εισ την γαλιλαιαν
3 Dejó á Judea, y fuése otra vez á Galilea.
3 he left Judea and departed into Galilee.
4 εδει δε αυτον διερχεσθαι δια τησ σαμαρειασ
4 Y era menester que pasase por Samaria.
4 He needed to pass through Samaria.
5 ερχεται ουν εισ πολιν τησ σαμαρειασ λεγομενην συχαρ πλησιον του χωριου ο εδωκεν ιακωβ ιωσηφ τω υιω αυτου
5 Vino, pues, á una ciudad de Samaria que se llamaba Sichâr, junto á la heredad que Jacob dió á José su hijo.
5 So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 ην δε εκει πηγη του ιακωβ ο ουν ιησουσ κεκοπιακωσ εκ τησ οδοιποριασ εκαθεζετο ουτωσ επι τη πηγη ωρα ην ωσει εκτη
6 Y estaba allí la fuente de Jacob. Pues Jesús, cansado del camino, así se sentó á la fuente. Era como la hora de sexta.
6 Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 ερχεται γυνη εκ τησ σαμαρειασ αντλησαι υδωρ λεγει αυτη ο ιησουσ δοσ μοι πιειν
7 Vino una mujer de Samaria á sacar agua: [y] Jesús le dice: Dame de beber.
7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”
8 οι γαρ μαθηται αυτου απεληλυθεισαν εισ την πολιν ινα τροφασ αγορασωσιν
8 (Porque sus discípulos habían ido á la ciudad á comprar de comer.)
8 For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 λεγει ουν αυτω η γυνη η σαμαρειτισ πωσ συ ιουδαιοσ ων παρ εμου πιειν αιτεισ ουσησ γυναικοσ σαμαρειτιδοσ ου γαρ συγχρωνται ιουδαιοι σαμαρειταισ
9 Y la mujer Samaritana le dice: ¿Cómo tú, siendo Judío, me pides á mí de beber, que soy mujer Samaritana? porque los Judíos no se tratan con los Samaritanos.
9 The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
10 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτη ει ηδεισ την δωρεαν του θεου και τισ εστιν ο λεγων σοι δοσ μοι πιειν συ αν ητησασ αυτον και εδωκεν αν σοι υδωρ ζων
10 Respondió Jesús y díjole: Si conocieses el don de Dios, y quién es el que te dice: Dame de beber: tú pedirías de él, y él te daría agua viva.
10 Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”
11 λεγει αυτω η γυνη κυριε ουτε αντλημα εχεισ και το φρεαρ εστιν βαθυ ποθεν ουν εχεισ το υδωρ το ζων
11 La mujer le dice: Señor, no tienes con qué sacar[la], y el pozo es hondo: ¿de dónde, pues, tienes el agua viva?
11 The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?
12 μη συ μειζων ει του πατροσ ημων ιακωβ οσ εδωκεν ημιν το φρεαρ και αυτοσ εξ αυτου επιεν και οι υιοι αυτου και τα θρεμματα αυτου
12 ¿Eres tú mayor que nuestro padre Jacob, que nos dió este pozo, del cual él bebió, y sus hijos, y sus ganados?
12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”
13 απεκριθη ιησουσ και ειπεν αυτη πασ ο πινων εκ του υδατοσ τουτου διψησει παλιν
13 Respondió Jesús y díjole: Cualquiera que bebiere de esta agua, volverá á tener sed;
13 Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,
14 οσ δ αν πιη εκ του υδατοσ ου εγω δωσω αυτω ου μη διψηση εισ τον αιωνα αλλα το υδωρ ο δωσω αυτω γενησεται εν αυτω πηγη υδατοσ αλλομενου εισ ζωην αιωνιον
14 Mas el que bebiere del agua que yo le daré, para siempre no tendrá sed: mas el agua que yo le daré, será en él una fuente de agua que salte para vida eterna.
14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
15 λεγει προσ αυτον η γυνη κυριε δοσ μοι τουτο το υδωρ ινα μη διψω μηδε ερχομαι ενθαδε αντλειν
15 La mujer le dice: Señor, dame esta agua, para que no tenga sed, ni venga acá á sacar[la].
15 The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”
16 λεγει αυτη ο ιησουσ υπαγε φωνησον τον ανδρα σου και ελθε ενθαδε
16 Jesús le dice: Ve, llama á tu marido, y ven acá.
16 Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
17 απεκριθη η γυνη και ειπεν ουκ εχω ανδρα λεγει αυτη ο ιησουσ καλωσ ειπασ οτι ανδρα ουκ εχω
17 Respondió la mujer, y dijo: No tengo marido. Dícele Jesús: Bien has dicho, No tengo marido;
17 The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’
18 πεντε γαρ ανδρασ εσχεσ και νυν ον εχεισ ουκ εστιν σου ανηρ τουτο αληθεσ ειρηκασ
18 Porque cinco maridos has tenido: y el que ahora tienes no es tu marido; esto has dicho con verdad.
18 for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”
19 λεγει αυτω η γυνη κυριε θεωρω οτι προφητησ ει συ
19 Dícele la mujer: Señor, paréceme que tú eres profeta.
19 The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.
20 οι πατερεσ ημων εν τω ορει τουτω προσεκυνησαν και υμεισ λεγετε οτι εν ιεροσολυμοισ εστιν ο τοποσ οπου δει προσκυνειν
20 Nuestros padres adoraron en este monte, y vosotros decís que en Jerusalem es el lugar donde es necesario adorar.
20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”
21 λεγει αυτη ο ιησουσ γυναι πιστευσον μοι οτι ερχεται ωρα οτε ουτε εν τω ορει τουτω ουτε εν ιεροσολυμοισ προσκυνησετε τω πατρι
21 Dícele Jesús: Mujer, créeme, que la hora viene, cuando ni en este monte, ni en Jerusalem adoraréis al Padre.
21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.
22 υμεισ προσκυνειτε ο ουκ οιδατε ημεισ προσκυνουμεν ο οιδαμεν οτι η σωτηρια εκ των ιουδαιων εστιν
22 Vosotros adoráis lo que no sabéis; nosotros adoramos lo que sabemos: porque la salud viene de los Judíos.
22 You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
23 αλλ ερχεται ωρα και νυν εστιν οτε οι αληθινοι προσκυνηται προσκυνησουσιν τω πατρι εν πνευματι και αληθεια και γαρ ο πατηρ τοιουτουσ ζητει τουσ προσκυνουντασ αυτον
23 Mas la hora viene, y ahora es, cuando los verdaderos adoradores adorarán al Padre en espíritu y en verdad; porque también el Padre tales adoradores busca que le adoren.
23 But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.
24 πνευμα ο θεοσ και τουσ προσκυνουντασ αυτον εν πνευματι και αληθεια δει προσκυνειν
24 Dios es Espíritu; y los que le adoran, en espíritu y en verdad es necesario que adoren.
24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
25 λεγει αυτω η γυνη οιδα οτι μεσιασ ερχεται ο λεγομενοσ χριστοσ οταν ελθη εκεινοσ αναγγελει ημιν παντα
25 Dícele la mujer: Sé que el Mesías ha de venir, el cual se dice el Cristo: cuando él viniere nos declarará todas las cosas.
25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”
26 λεγει αυτη ο ιησουσ εγω ειμι ο λαλων σοι
26 Dícele Jesús: Yo soy, que hablo contigo.
26 Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”
27 και επι τουτω ηλθον οι μαθηται αυτου και εθαυμασαν οτι μετα γυναικοσ ελαλει ουδεισ μεντοι ειπεν τι ζητεισ η τι λαλεισ μετ αυτησ
27 Y en esto vinieron sus discípulos, y maravilláronse de que hablaba con mujer; mas ninguno dijo: ¿Qué preguntas? ó, ¿Qué hablas con ella?
27 Just then, his disciples came. They marveled that he was speaking with a woman; yet no one said, “What are you looking for?” or, “Why do you speak with her?”
28 αφηκεν ουν την υδριαν αυτησ η γυνη και απηλθεν εισ την πολιν και λεγει τοισ ανθρωποισ
28 Entonces la mujer dejó su cántaro, y fué á la ciudad, y dijo á aquellos hombres:
28 So the woman left her water pot, went away into the city, and said to the people,
29 δευτε ιδετε ανθρωπον οσ ειπεν μοι παντα οσα εποιησα μητι ουτοσ εστιν ο χριστοσ
29 Venid, ved un hombre que me ha dicho todo lo que he hecho: ¿si quizás es éste el Cristo?
29 “Come, see a man who told me everything that I have done. Can this be the Christ?”
30 εξηλθον εκ τησ πολεωσ και ηρχοντο προσ αυτον
30 Entonces salieron de la ciudad, y vinieron á él.
30 They went out of the city, and were coming to him.
31 εν δε τω μεταξυ ηρωτων αυτον οι μαθηται λεγοντεσ ραββι φαγε
31 Entre tanto los discípulos le rogaban, diciendo: Rabbí, come.
31 In the meanwhile, the disciples urged him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
32 ο δε ειπεν αυτοισ εγω βρωσιν εχω φαγειν ην υμεισ ουκ οιδατε
32 Y él les dijo: Yo tengo una comida que comer, que vosotros no sabéis.
32 But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you don’t know about.”
33 ελεγον ουν οι μαθηται προσ αλληλουσ μη τισ ηνεγκεν αυτω φαγειν
33 Entonces los discípulos decían el uno al otro: ¿Si le habrá traído alguien de comer?
33 The disciples therefore said to one another, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?”
34 λεγει αυτοισ ο ιησουσ εμον βρωμα εστιν ινα ποιω το θελημα του πεμψαντοσ με και τελειωσω αυτου το εργον
34 Díceles Jesús: Mi comida es que haga la voluntad del que me envió, y que acabe su obra.
34 Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work.
35 ουχ υμεισ λεγετε οτι ετι τετραμηνοσ εστιν και ο θερισμοσ ερχεται ιδου λεγω υμιν επαρατε τουσ οφθαλμουσ υμων και θεασασθε τασ χωρασ οτι λευκαι εισιν προσ θερισμον ηδη
35 ¿No decís vosotros: Aun hay cuatro meses hasta que llegue la siega? He aquí os digo: Alzad vuestros ojos, y mirad las regiones, porque ya están blancas para la siega.
35 Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest’? Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already.
36 και ο θεριζων μισθον λαμβανει και συναγει καρπον εισ ζωην αιωνιον ινα και ο σπειρων ομου χαιρη και ο θεριζων
36 Y el que siega, recibe salario, y allega fruto para vida eterna; para que el que siembra también goce, y el que siega.
36 He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
37 εν γαρ τουτω ο λογοσ εστιν ο αληθινοσ οτι αλλοσ εστιν ο σπειρων και αλλοσ ο θεριζων
37 Porque en esto es el dicho verdadero: Que uno es el que siembra, y otro es el que siega.
37 For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’
38 εγω απεστειλα υμασ θεριζειν ο ουχ υμεισ κεκοπιακατε αλλοι κεκοπιακασιν και υμεισ εισ τον κοπον αυτων εισεληλυθατε
38 Yo os he enviado á segar lo que vosotros no labrasteis: otros labraron, y vosotros habéis entrado en sus labores.
38 I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”
39 εκ δε τησ πολεωσ εκεινησ πολλοι επιστευσαν εισ αυτον των σαμαρειτων δια τον λογον τησ γυναικοσ μαρτυρουσησ οτι ειπεν μοι παντα οσα εποιησα
39 Y muchos de los Samaritanos de aquella ciudad creyeron en él por la palabra de la mujer, que daba testimonio, [diciendo]: Que me dijo todo lo que he hecho.
39 From that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the word of the woman, who testified, “He told me everything that I have done.”
40 ωσ ουν ηλθον προσ αυτον οι σαμαρειται ηρωτων αυτον μειναι παρ αυτοισ και εμεινεν εκει δυο ημερασ
40 Viniendo pues los Samaritanos á él, rogáronle que se quedase allí: y se quedó allí dos días.
40 So when the Samaritans came to him, they begged him to stay with them. He stayed there two days.
41 και πολλω πλειουσ επιστευσαν δια τον λογον αυτου
41 Y creyeron muchos más por la palabra de él.
41 Many more believed because of his word.
42 τη τε γυναικι ελεγον οτι ουκετι δια την σην λαλιαν πιστευομεν αυτοι γαρ ακηκοαμεν και οιδαμεν οτι ουτοσ εστιν αληθωσ ο σωτηρ του κοσμου ο χριστοσ
42 Y decían á la mujer: Ya no creemos por tu dicho; porque nosotros mismos hemos oído, y sabemos que verdaderamente éste es el Salvador del mundo, el Cristo.
42 They said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of your speaking; for we have heard for ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.”
43 μετα δε τασ δυο ημερασ εξηλθεν εκειθεν και απηλθεν εισ την γαλιλαιαν
43 Y dos días después, salió de allí, y fuése á Galilea.
43 After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.
44 αυτοσ γαρ ο ιησουσ εμαρτυρησεν οτι προφητησ εν τη ιδια πατριδι τιμην ουκ εχει
44 Porque el mismo Jesús dió testimonio de que el profeta en su tierra no tiene honra.
44 For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.
45 οτε ουν ηλθεν εισ την γαλιλαιαν εδεξαντο αυτον οι γαλιλαιοι παντα εωρακοτεσ α εποιησεν εν ιεροσολυμοισ εν τη εορτη και αυτοι γαρ ηλθον εισ την εορτην
45 Y como vino á Galilea, los Galileos le recibieron, vistas todas las cosas que había hecho en Jerusalem en el día de la fiesta: porque también ellos habían ido á la fiesta.
45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.
46 ηλθεν ουν παλιν ο ιησουσ εισ την κανα τησ γαλιλαιασ οπου εποιησεν το υδωρ οινον και ην τισ βασιλικοσ ου ο υιοσ ησθενει εν καπερναουμ
46 Vino pues Jesús otra vez á Caná de Galilea, donde había hecho el vino del agua. Y había en Capernaum uno del rey, cuyo hijo estaba enfermo.
46 Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.
47 ουτοσ ακουσασ οτι ιησουσ ηκει εκ τησ ιουδαιασ εισ την γαλιλαιαν απηλθεν προσ αυτον και ηρωτα αυτον ινα καταβη και ιασηται αυτου τον υιον εμελλεν γαρ αποθνησκειν
47 Este, como oyó que Jesús venía de Judea á Galilea, fué á él, y rogábale que descendiese, y sanase á su hijo, porque se comenzaba á morir.
47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.
48 ειπεν ουν ο ιησουσ προσ αυτον εαν μη σημεια και τερατα ιδητε ου μη πιστευσητε
48 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Si no viereis señales y milagros no creeréis.
48 Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”
49 λεγει προσ αυτον ο βασιλικοσ κυριε καταβηθι πριν αποθανειν το παιδιον μου
49 El del rey le dijo: Señor, desciende antes que mi hijo muera.
49 The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”
50 λεγει αυτω ο ιησουσ πορευου ο υιοσ σου ζη και επιστευσεν ο ανθρωποσ τω λογω ω ειπεν αυτω ο ιησουσ και επορευετο
50 Dícele Jesús: Ve, tu hijo vive. Y el hombre creyó á la palabra que Jesús le dijo, y se fué.
50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.
51 ηδη δε αυτου καταβαινοντοσ οι δουλοι αυτου απηντησαν αυτω και απηγγειλαν λεγοντεσ οτι ο παισ σου ζη
51 Y cuando ya él descendía, los siervos le salieron á recibir, y le dieron nuevas, diciendo: Tu hijo vive.
51 As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”
52 επυθετο ουν παρ αυτων την ωραν εν η κομψοτερον εσχεν και ειπον αυτω οτι χθεσ ωραν εβδομην αφηκεν αυτον ο πυρετοσ
52 Entonces él les preguntó á qué hora comenzó á estar mejor. Y dijéronle: Ayer á las siete le dejó la fiebre.
52 So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.”
53 εγνω ουν ο πατηρ οτι εν εκεινη τη ωρα εν η ειπεν αυτω ο ιησουσ οτι ο υιοσ σου ζη και επιστευσεν αυτοσ και η οικια αυτου ολη
53 El padre entonces entendió, que aquella hora era cuando Jesús le dijo: Tu hijo vive; y creyó él y toda su casa.
53 So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.
54 τουτο παλιν δευτερον σημειον εποιησεν ο ιησουσ ελθων εκ τησ ιουδαιασ εισ την γαλιλαιαν
54 Esta segunda señal volvió Jesús á hacer, cuando vino de Judea á Galilea.
54 This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.
