2 Ni khola Yerusalemu pajhele ni bikira pa ndiangu ghwa ling'osi, lyalyajhele likutibhwa kwa lugha jha Kiebrania Bethzatha, ni liene lijhele ni matao mahanu.
3 Idadi mbaha jha bhatamu jhajhele, fipofu, fiwete, au bhabhapozili bhajhele bhagonili mu matao aghu. {Zingatilayi: Malobhi gha n'sitari ghwa 3 ghibhonekana lepi mu nakala sinofu sya muandi. “Bhilend'ela masi kutibulibhwa.) Kwa hakika bhwakati fulani malaika asilili mugati mwa Bwana ni kughatibula masi.
4 Henu, jhola ambajhe ajhele ghwa kuanza kujhingila mugati mu masi baada jha masi kutibulibhwa abhomboki mzima kufwatana ni kyokyoha kyakikajhele kunkamuili kwa bhwakati obhu.
5 Na munu mmonga jhaalwalili kwa muda ghwa miaka thelathini na nne ajhele mugati mu matao.
6 Yesu bho ambwene agonili mugati mu matao ni baada jha kutambula kujha agonili pala kwa muda mrefu Yesu an'jobhili, “Je ghwilonda kujha nsima?”
7 N'tamu jhola akan'jibu, “Bwana njedumu ni munu, ghwa kunibheka mu birika bhwakati masi paghitibulibhwa. Bhwakati panilonda kujhingila munu jhongi akanilongolela.”
8 Yesu akan'jobhela, “Jhemayi na ulotayi ligodoro lya jhobhi na ulotayi.”
9 Mara munu jhola akaponesibhwa, akalota kitanda kya muene akabhoka. Na ligono elu lyajhele ligono lya Sabato.
10 Hivyo Bhayahudi bhakan'jobhela munu jhola jha aponisibhu, “Lelu ligono lya Sabato, na ghwiruhusibhwa lepi kup'enda ligodoro lya bhebhe.”
11 Akajibu, muene jhaaniponyisi ndo anijobhili, “Tolayi ligodoro lya jhobhi na ulotayi.”
