John 8
1 Yeshua chu Olive lhang lam'a akile kittai.
And at dawn he came again to the temple,
2 Ahivangin ajing jingkah matah in ama Houin'ah ahungkit in ahi. Chuin hetman louvin, mihonpi khat aheng'a ahung kikhom'un ama atouvin, amaho chu thu ahiltan ahi.
and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them;
3 Hitia athuhil laitah chun, Danthu them hole Pharisee hon, ajonpet tah'a kiman numei khat ahin kaiyun, mipi lailunga chun adinsah'un ahi.
and the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman having been taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 Hichun amahon Yeshua jah'a, “Houhil hiche numei hi ajon pettah'a kiman ahi.
they say to him, 'Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime — committing adultery,
5 Hijeh chun Mose danthu peh dungjui in, amanu hi songa selih ding ahi, nangman ipi nagel em?” atiuve.
and in the law, Moses did command us that such be stoned; thou, therefore, what dost thou say?'
6 Hichu ama hehset na thei ding ikhat beh aseidoh khat leh tia thangkam peh ahiuve; ahivangin Yeshua akun'in ima seilouvin akhut jungin tol chu ajih in ahi.
and this they said, trying him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, with the finger he was writing on the ground,
7 Hichun amahon Yeshua chun adonbut teidinga ano jeh'un Yeshua ading doh in ajah'uva, “Aphai nalah uva chonset bolkhalou hel pen penin amanu chu songin sep masa hen,” ati.
and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, 'The sinless of you — let him first cast the stone at her;'
8 Chuin ama akun'in tol chu ajih kit in ahi.
and again having stooped down, he was writing on the ground,
9 Chuin amahon hichu ajah phat'un, atehpen'a pat aneopen geiyin ama ho khat khat in achemang gamtauvin, mihonpi lailunga chun Yeshua changseh leh numeinu bou adalha tauvin ahi.
and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders — unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Hichun Yeshua adingdoh in amanu jah'a, “Nahinkai ho hoilam gei hitauvem? Koiman themmo nachan lou hitam?” ati.
And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, 'Woman, where are those — thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?'
11 Hichun amanun, “Pakai koiman themmo eichan tapoi,” ati. Hichun Yeshuan amanu jah'a, “Keiman jong themmo kachan poi chetan, ahin tukal chonsekit tahih'in,” ati.
and she said, 'No one, Sir;' and Jesus said to her, 'Neither do I pass sentence on thee; be going on, and no more sin.'
12 Chuin Yeshuan avelin miho jah'a, “Keima vannoi Vah kahi, kanung najui uleh nangho muthim'a vahle lou nahi tauve, ajeh chu nanghon hinna vah chu naneiyu ahitai,” ati.
Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, 'I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.'
13 Hichun Pharisee hon adonbut'un, “Na chungthu nangma tah in na hettoh sah chu hettoh sah dih ahipoi,” atiuve.
The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, 'Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;'
14 Hichun Yeshuan ajah'uva, “Kachungthu keima tah'in kahet tohsah hi, hettoh sah dihtah ahi. Ajeh chu keiman kahung kona leh kajot na ding kakihet in, ahivangin hichu nanghon nahe pouve.”
Jesus answered and said to them, 'And if I testify of myself — my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye — ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go.
15 Chule nanghon tahsa mihem hina dol'in ka chungthu natan'un, keiman vang koima chungthu chuti chun katan jipoi.
'Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one,
16 Ijemtia thutanna kabol tah jongle, kathu tan jouse abon'a dihtah ahi; ajeh chu keima kachang kahipon, eihinsol'a Kapa toh kahilhon'e.
and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me;
17 Ajeh chu nangho danthu dungjui in minin kitoh tah'a ahettoh sah leh hichu hettoh sah dihtah'a kipom ahi.
and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true;
18 Hijeh chun, keima tah hettoh sah khat kahin, chuleh eihinsol'a kapa chu hettohsah adang khat chu ahi.
I am [one] who is testifying of myself, and the Father who sent me doth testify of me.'
19 Hichun amahon adong'un, “Napa hoiya umham?” atiuve, Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Nanghon keima neihe pouve, kapa jong nahe pouve, keima neihe leu chun kapa jong nahet diu ahi,” ati.
They said, therefore, to him, 'Where is thy father?' Jesus answered, 'Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.'
20 Hicheng jouse chu, Yeshuan Houin sunga sumkhol na kiti mun'a athuhil pet'a asei ahi. Ahivangin anikho alhin jep loulai jeh in, koiman ama chu amanpoi.
These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come;
21 Chujouvin Yeshuan avel in ajah'uva, “Keima kache mang ding ahi, nangho kache na-a nahung thei pouve, ajeh chu na chonset nau chu nathipi ding'u ahi,” ati.
therefore said Jesus again to them, 'I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.'
22 Hichun miho chu akidong touvin, “Hiche pa hi ama leh ama kithat go khat ham? Chuleh kache na-a nangho nahung thei pouve ati hi ipi aseina ahidem?” atiuve.
The Jews, therefore, said, 'Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?'
23 Chuin Yeshuan avel in ajah'uva, “Nangho noiya kon nahiuvin, keima chunga kon kahi, chuleh nangho hiche vannoiya um nahiuvin, keima kahipoi.
and he said to them, 'Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world;
24 Hiche jeh a chu najah'uva kasei ahi, nanghon keima koi kahi kahet tohsah hi natahsan lou uleh, na chonset nau chu nathipi teiding'u ahi,” ati.
I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.'
25 Hichun amahon adong'un, Nang koi nahim? atiuve, Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Keima ama chu kahi tia kaseijing tah chula em,” ati.
They said, therefore, to him, 'Thou — who art thou?' and Jesus said to them, 'Even what I did speak of to you at the beginning;
26 “Keiman nangho chunga demna dingleh sei ding adim'in kaneiye, ahivangin seipong e; ajeh chu keima eisolpa chu thudihtah ahin, ama-a kon'a kajah ho bou kasei ahi.”
many things I have to speak concerning you and to judge, but He who sent me is true, and I — what things I heard from Him — these I say to the world.'
27 Ahivangin Yeshuan hiche asei chu, Pa thudol aseina ahiti amahon ahedoh thei deh pouve.
They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;
28 Hiche jeh chun, Yeshuan ajah'uva, “Nanghon Mihem Chapa chu thingpel a nadop sang teng'u leh ama chu keima tah kahi nahet dingu ahi, ajeh chu keiman kacham'a imacha kabolpoi, Pa chun eihil ho bou kasei ahi.
Jesus, therefore, said to them, 'When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am [he]; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak;
29 Chuleh keima eisolpa chun ei umpi jinge, aman kachangin eidalha poi, ajeh chu keiman phat jousen ama lunglhai na bou kabol jin ahi,” ati.
and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.'
30 Chuin mitam tah in thu hicheng asei chu ajah phat'un, ama chu atahsan tauve.
As he is speaking these things, many believed in him;
31 Hichun Yeshuan ama tahsan ho henga chun, “Nangho kathuhil'a hi kitah tah'a na umjing'u leh nangho kaseijui tahbeh nahiuve.
Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, 'If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,
32 Chuleh nanghon thutah chu heuvin natin, chuteng thutah chun nacham lhat sah dingu ahi,” ati.
and the truth shall make you free.'
33 Hichun amahon, ajah'a, “Keiho vang Abraham son leh pah kahiuve, keiho imatih in koima soh'in ka um khapouve; nangho nacham lhat sah ding'u nati chu ipi naseina ham?” atiuvin ahi.
They answered him, 'Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say — Ye shall become free?'
34 Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Keiman atahbeh chu kaseipeh nahiuve, koi hileh chonset bol jinga chu chonset soh ahi.”
Jesus answered them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you — Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,
35 Chuleh soh chu insungmi tahtah ahiden thei poi, ahin chapa vang chu a itih'a insungmi dihtah ahijinge. (aiōn g165)
and the servant doth not remain in the house — to the age, the son doth remain — to the age; (aiōn g165)
36 Hijeh chun, Chapa chun nangho nalha-ong'uva ahileh nangho achamlhat tahbeh nahiu ahitai.
if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.
37 Adih e, nangho Abraham son leh pah nahiu kahenai; ahivangin nanghon keima tha ding neigo jing'uve, ajeh chu nalung sung uva kathu hil hi alutpoi.
'I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you;
38 Chuleh keiman kapa koma kamu chengse nangho kaseipeh nahiuve, ahivangin nanghon napau thumop bou najuiuve.
I — that which I have seen with my Father do speak, and ye, therefore, that which ye have seen with your father — ye do.'
39 Ama hon adonbut'un, “Kapau chu Abraham ahi,” atiuve, hichun Yeshuan ajah'uva, “Ahipoi,” nangho Abraham chate hileu chun, ama thilbol nung najui dingu ahi.
They answered and said to him, 'Our father is Abraham;' Jesus saith to them, 'If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing;
40 Ahinlah keiman Pathen'a kon'a kajah thutah cheng nangho kaseipeh jeh'un, nanghon keima tha ding neigo jinguve, Abraham chun imatih chan in chutobang thil abolpoi.
and now, ye seek to kill me — a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not;
41 “Nanghon napau dihtah adang khat umchan najui'u ahibouve,” ati. Hichun amahon adonbut'un, “Keiho jaocha kahipouve, Pathen amatah chu kapau dihtah ahi,” atiuve.
ye do the works of your father.' They said, therefore, to him, 'We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have — God;'
42 Hichun Yeshuan ajah'uva, “Pathen chu napau ahileh nanghon keima nei ngailut dingu ahi. Ajeh chu keima Pathen'a kon hung kipan kahi. Keima kacham'a hung kahipoi, aman eihin sol ahibouve.
Jesus then said to them, 'If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me;
43 Chuleh nanghon ibol'a kathusei nahet thei lou'u ham? hiche hi nanghon kathu sei nangailou jeh'u ahi.
wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.
44 Nangho napau Satan chate nahi jeh'un, ama thilbol aphalou ho bol ding nanomui, ama chu atil'a pat'a tolthat ahin, ama-a thutah'a umlou jeh chun, phat jousen aman thutah ahot in ahi; aman jou asei chu achonna'a behden ahitai, ajeh chu ama mijou ahin, jou kondon na pa ahi.
'Ye are of a father — the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar — also his father.
45 Hijeh a chu keiman nangho thutah kasei peh'u jongleh nanghon keima neitahsan theilou'u ahi.
'And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me.
46 Chuleh nangho koipen in hettohsah kichehtah'a mi chonse kahina nei ngoh thei uvem? Achutileh na henguva keiman thutah kasei ahi, ibol'a neitahsan lou'u ham?
Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?
47 Hijeh chun koi hileh Pathen'a hiho chun kipah tah in Pathen thu angaiyun ahi; ahivangin nangho Pathen'a nahilou jeh'un athu na ngaipouve,” ati.
he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.'
48 Chuin amahon ajah'a, “Nangma Samaria mi nahin, thilha vop nahi tia kana seijingu hita lou ham?” atiuve.
The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, 'Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?'
49 Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Kahipoi, keima thilhavop kahipoi, ajeh chu keiman kapa kajabol ahin, nanghon keima neija bol pouve.
Jesus answered, 'I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;
50 Ahivangin, keiman keima chang kichoi-at kaholpoi, Pathen in keima eichoi sang dingbou ahi; ajeh chu ama thutan dihtah ahi.
and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging;
51 Chule keiman nangho atahbeh chu kaseipeh nahiuve, koi hileh kathuhil ngaiya bol'a chu a itih'a thi lou ding ahi,” ati. (aiōn g165)
verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see — to the age.' (aiōn g165)
52 Chuin amahon ajah'a, “Thilhavop nahi kahe tauve, Abraham leh themgao ho athigam tauvin, ahivangin nangman kathuhil nit'a chu a itih'a thilou ding ahi, nati. (aiōn g165)
The Jews, therefore, said to him, 'Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death — to the age! (aiōn g165)
53 Chule kapau Abraham sang'a chungnung jo nahim? Ama athitan, themgao ho jong athitauvin, ahileh nangman koi kahi tia naki gel ham?” atiuve.
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?'
54 Hichun Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Keima kichang choi-at na hol kahileh hichu keima ima hilou kahitai; ahinlah nanghon ka Pathen'u natiu kapa ama chun keima ei choi-at ding ahibouve.
Jesus answered, 'If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me, of whom ye say that He is your God;
55 Ahivangin nanghon ama chu nahe pouve, kenvang ama chu kahei, chuleh keiman ama chu kahepoi tileng keimatah hi nangho banga mijou kahi khah ding ahi, ahivangin keiman ama kahet jeh chun, amathu kangaiyin ahi.
and ye have not known Him, and I have known Him, and if I say that I have not known Him, I shall be like you — speaking falsely; but I have known Him, and His word I keep;
56 Chuleh napau Abraham chun keima nikho mu ding anagal dot ahin, chule aman hichu anamun chuleh akipah lheh jengin ahi,” ati.
Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.'
57 Chuin Judah ho chun ajah'a, “Nangma kum somnga bon lhinglou laiya, iti nangin Abraham kamutai nati ham?” atiuve.
The Jews, therefore, said unto him, 'Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?'
58 Yeshuan adonbut'in, “Keiman nangho atahbeh kaseipeh nahiuve, Abraham masanga keima ana umsa jing kahitai,” ati.
Jesus said to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham's coming — I am;'
59 Chuche phat chun, Judah hon ama sena dingin song akilah tauvin ahi, ahivangin alah'uva kon'in Yeshua chu akiseldoh in, Houin'a kon chun achemangtai.
they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
