< John 8 >

1 THEN Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
Te Yesus neu sia lete Saitun.
2 But early in the morning he came again to the temple, and all the people came to him; and sitting down he taught them.
Mbila fefetu anan, boe ma Ana neu mia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a sodꞌan rala. Atahori hetar reu raꞌabꞌue ro E. Boe ma Ana endoꞌ nanori se.
3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman caught in adultery; and placing her in the midst,
Leleꞌ naa, hambu inaꞌ esa fo ara humu rala e leleꞌ ana hohongge. Boe ma meser agama ro atahori Farisi hira o lea rendi e nisiꞌ Yesus. De Ara raꞌasusuuꞌ inaꞌ naa nambariiꞌ sia basa se mata nara.
4 they say unto him, Master, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act.
Boe ma rafadꞌe Yesus rae, “Papa Meser. Inaꞌ ia hambu rala e leleꞌ ana hohongge.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded, that such women should be stoned: therefore what sayest thou?
Naa, tungga baꞌi Musa Hohoro-lalanen nara, hambu parendaꞌ oi, ‘atahori mana hohongge musi nene hondaꞌ fatu neu losa mate.’ Tungga Papa, na, taꞌo bee?”
6 But this they said, trying to entrap him, that they might have ground of accusation against him. But Jesus stooping down, with his finger wrote on the ground.
Ara rae teꞌe-sii sobꞌa E, fo ara bisa rundu salaꞌ ma raꞌatutudꞌaꞌ E. Yesus nda nataa neuꞌ ena sa, te Ana endoꞌ dakaꞌ-dakaꞌ de suraꞌ sia rae a, nendiꞌ lima uꞌu na.
7 Now when they continued questioning him, raising himself up, he said to them, Let the person who is sinless among you, first cast a stone at her.
Ara akaꞌ ratane rakandodooꞌ E. Basa ma Ana nambariiꞌ, de nafadꞌe se nae, “Taꞌo ia. Mete ma hambu mia hei nda tao mita salaꞌ sa, na, eni mana mbia fatu naꞌahuluꞌ fo hukun inaꞌ ia.”
8 And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
Basa ma Ana endoꞌ dakaꞌ-dakaꞌ fai, de suraꞌ seluꞌ neu rae a.
9 But when they heard him, and felt the conviction of their conscience, they slunk away one by one, beginning from the elders to the last: so Jesus was left alone, with the woman standing in the midst.
Leleꞌ ara rena oꞌolan ma, ara mae. Huu sia rala nara, ara bubꞌuluꞌ rae, sira o tao rita salaꞌ boe. Basa ma ara lao esa-esa, mia lasiꞌ losa soruꞌ ra. Doo-doo ma, helaꞌ a Yesus no inaꞌ a mesaꞌ ne sia naa.
10 Then Jesus raising himself up, and seeing no person but the woman, said unto her, Woman, where are these thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
Boe ma Yesus nambariiꞌ fai, ma natane nae, “Hee? Ara sia bee ena? Nda hambu atahori laen sia ia, fo nau fee salaꞌ do hukun nggo, do?”
11 She said, No man, Lord. Then said Jesus unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Boe ma nataa nae, “Nese, Papa.” Yesus nafadꞌe e nae, “Au o nda nau hukun nggo sa boe. Baliꞌ leo. Te musunedꞌa. Afiꞌ tao salaꞌ fai!”]
12 Then spake Jesus again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ no atahori hetar naa ra nae, “Au ia, onaꞌ manggareloꞌ soaꞌ neu atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia. Atahori mana tungga Au nda nasodꞌa sia maꞌahatuꞌ a sa, te ana leo sia manggareloꞌ mana nendi masodꞌa ndoo-tetuꞌ a.”
13 The Pharisees said to him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.
Hambu atahori Farisi hira rasapaa rae, “Weh! Mae dadꞌi sakasii soaꞌ neu aom, do? Nda bisa sa! Huu tungga hita hohoro-lalanen, musi atahori laen dadꞌi sakasii soaꞌ neu atahori esa, nda akaꞌ atahori na mesaꞌ ne sa. Dadꞌi hai nda simbo, ma nda nau mimihere sa.”
14 Jesus answered and said to them, Though I do bear witness of myself, my witness is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I am going.
Yesus nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia. Mae Au dadꞌi sakasii soaꞌ neu ao Ngga, te oꞌola Ngga naa, tebꞌe. Huu Au mesaꞌ nggo bubꞌuluꞌ tebꞌe Au laoꞌ mia bee uma, boe ma ae bee uu. Hei nda bubꞌuluꞌ Au mia bee uma sa, boe ma nda bubꞌuluꞌ dei fo Au bee uu sa boe.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Hei nile atahori mendiꞌ atahori timba-tai na. Te Au nda pake atahori timba-tain fo nile atahori esa sa boe.
16 But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.
Mete ma Au nile atahori, Au timba-tai ngga naa, ndaa. Huu Au nda nile mesaꞌ nggo sa, te Au tao basa-bꞌasa naa ra uꞌubꞌue o Ama ngga mana denu Auꞌ a.
17 Now even in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.
Afiꞌ liliiꞌ. Huu nenesuraꞌ sia hei hohoro-lalane agama ma oi, ‘Mete ma hambu atahori sakasii rua olaꞌ ona esaꞌ dalaꞌ esa, na, dei fo feꞌe nenesimbo tungga hita hohoro-lalanen.’
18 I am a witness for myself, and the Father who sent me beareth witness of me.
Dadꞌi nda akaꞌ Au mesaꞌ nggo dadꞌi sakasii soꞌal ao ngga sa. Huu Ama ngga mana denu Auꞌ a o dadꞌi sakasii ma olaꞌ soꞌal Au boe.”
19 Then said they to him, Where is thy father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also.
Ara ratane rae, “Amam naa, sia bee?” Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Hei nda mihine tebꞌe Au sa. Hei o nda mihine Au Ama ngga sa boe. Huu mete ma hei mihine tebꞌe Au, tantu mihine Eni boe.”
20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no person apprehended him; for his hour was not yet come.
Basa ia ra, Yesus nafadꞌe leleꞌ Ana nanori sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a, deka-deka sia mamanaꞌ fo radꞌuru rendiꞌ neu doi kolete. Nda hambu esa humu E sa boe, huu fain nda feꞌe losa sa.
21 Then spake Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I am going ye cannot come.
Yesus tute oꞌolan mbali se nae, “Dei fo Au lao hela nggi, uu sia mamanaꞌ laen. Dei fo ama sangga Au, te nda hambu sa, huu hei nda miꞌena hak mii sia mamanaꞌ naa sa. De mete ma hei mate, naa ama feꞌe lemba-misaa sala-kilum.”
22 The Jews said therefore, Will he kill himself? because he said, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
Basa ma atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara esa natane esa rae, “Ana olaꞌ saa ia? Ana nae tao nisa aon, do? Huu Ana oi, ‘Hei nda bisa mii sia mamanaꞌ naa sa.’”
23 And he said to them, Ye are from those beneath; I am from those above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe mbali se nae, “Hei mia raefafoꞌ sia raeꞌ. Te Au mia lalai sia ataꞌ. Hei atahori mia raefafoꞌ ia. Te Au atahori nda mia raefafoꞌ ia sa.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am, ye shall die in your sins.
Naeni de Au ufadꞌe faꞌ ra ae, mete ma hei mate, ama feꞌe lemba-misaa sala-kilu mara. Huu mete ma hei nda mimihere mae, Au ia, naeni Kristus, fo Lamatualain haitua nemaꞌ a ena, dei fo hei mate, na tantu ama feꞌe lemba-misaa sala-kilu mara.”
25 They said, therefore to him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, Assuredly the same as I am telling you.
Basa ma ratane rae, “Weh! Ho ia, seka?” Yesus nataa nae, “Au ufadꞌe memaꞌ mia fefeun ena.
26 I have many things to speak and to decide concerning you: but he that sent me is true; and the things which I have heard from him I speak to the world.
Hambu dalaꞌ hetar fo Au bisa ufadꞌe soꞌal hei. Hei sala mara naeꞌ boe. Te Au nda nau utudꞌu dalaꞌ naa ra sa. Naa, Mana denu Au uma sia ia na, mete ma Ana olaꞌ, Ana olaꞌ akaꞌ ndoo-tetuꞌ a. Ma Au ufadꞌe neu akaꞌ atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia, dala-dalaꞌ fo Au rena mia Eni ena.”
27 They knew not that he spake to them of the Father.
(Eni masud na, Aman sia sorga. Te ara nda rahine masud na sa boe).
28 Then said Jesus to them, When ye shall have lifted up on high the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am, and of myself have I done nothing; but as the Father hath instructed me, so I speak.
Boe ma Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Dei fo mete ma hei londa nggangge Au, Atahori Matetuꞌ ia, sia hau ngganggeꞌ ata, dei fo hei mihine mae, Au ia, naeni Kristus. Au nda tao saa-saa mia Au ao ngga sa, te Au unori akaꞌ dala-dalaꞌ fo Ama ngga sia sorga nanori neu Au ena.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; because I always do the things acceptable to him.
Mana denu Au a, naꞌabꞌue no Au nakandooꞌ a. Ana nda parna hela nita Au mesaꞌ nggo sa, huu Au akaꞌ tao tungga Eni hihii-nanaun.”
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
Leleꞌ Yesus nafadꞌe dalaꞌ ia ra, ma atahori hetar ramahere E boe.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye abide in my word, assuredly ye are my disciples;
Basa ma, Yesus nafadꞌe neu atahori Yahudi ra mana ramahere neu Eni a nae, “Mete ma hei misodꞌa nenepaꞌaꞌ mo Au Dedꞌea-oꞌola ngga ra, ma hei minori mikindoo mia Au, na, hei dadꞌi Au ana mana tungga ngga tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ.
32 and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Basa fo, hei bisa bubꞌuluꞌ dala-dala ndoo-tetuꞌ ra. Ma dala-dala ndoo-tetuꞌ naa, mana mboꞌiꞌ nggi, de ama nda afiꞌ dadꞌi ate sa ena.”
33 They answered him, We are Abraham’s seed, and never were in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, That we shall be made free?
Basa ma ara rasapaa rae, “Hee! Hai ia, nda atahori aten sa! Huu hai ia, baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosin! Dadꞌi taꞌo bee de olaꞌ mae, dei fo hai nenemboꞌit?”
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, That every one who committeth sin is the slave of sin.
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe neu se nae, “Au oꞌola ngga naa, tebꞌe. Huu basa atahori fo rasodꞌaꞌ tao salaꞌ ra, dadꞌi onaꞌ ate esa akaꞌ tungga-tunggaꞌ a salaꞌ hihii-nanaun.
35 But the slave abideth not in the family for ever: but the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
Te eni biasa na, taꞌo ia: ate ra nda biasa simbo hata-hetoꞌ mia malangga sa. Huu akaꞌ malangga anan mana simbo hata-hetoꞌ naa. (aiōn g165)
36 If the Son therefore make you free, ye will be truly free.
Dadꞌi mete ma Au, naeni Lamatualain Anan, fee ambon neu sala-kilu mara, na, hei nenemboꞌit ena, ma nda dadꞌi salaꞌ a aten sa ena. No taꞌo naa, hei nenemboꞌit tebꞌe ena, de sudꞌi boe tungga salaꞌ a hihii-nanaun fai!
37 I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; yet ye seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.
Au bubꞌuluꞌ hei ia, naeni baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosin. Mae onaꞌ naa boe o, hei akaꞌ sangga-sangga dalaꞌ fo mae tao misa Au, huu ama nda nau simbo Au nenori ngga sa. Huu sia rala mara, nda hambu mamanaꞌ fo mbedaꞌ Au Dedꞌea-oꞌola ngga sa ena.
38 I speak what I have seen with my Father: and ye do therefore what ye have seen with your father.
Au ufadꞌe dala-dalaꞌ fo itaꞌ ra, fo Ama ngga natudꞌu neu Au ena. Ma hei tao tungga dala-dalaꞌ fo hei rena mia ama mara.”
39 They answered and said unto him, Our Father is Abraham. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were the children of Abraham, ye would have done the works of Abraham.
Ara rataa rae, “Hai ia, baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosin!” Yesus nafadꞌe nae, “Mete ma hei dadꞌi baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosin tebꞌe, na, hei tao tungga e.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man who hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God. Abraham did not so.
Te baꞌi Abraham nda tao nita deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ hei taoꞌ naa sa! Huu hei akaꞌ sangga dalaꞌ fo mae tao misa Au. Tao-tao te Au ia, mana ufadꞌe neu nggi dala-dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a, fo Au rena mia Lamatualain.
41 Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We are not born of whoredom; we have one Father, even God.
Hei tatao mara, memaꞌ nda nela naꞌadooꞌ mia hei amam sa.” Te ara rasapaa rae, “Hee! Hai ia, ana nene hengge neeꞌ! Afiꞌ mae, hai ia, ana tias! Huu hai Amam, akaꞌ esaꞌ a, naeni Lamatualain!”
42 Then said Jesus unto them, If God was your Father, ye would have loved me: for I came out from God, and I am coming; neither indeed came I of myself, but he hath sent me.
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe se nae, “Te mete ma Lamatualain tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ dadꞌi hei Amam, tantu hei sue Au. Huu Au uma mia E, ma Au sia ia. Au nda uma tunggaꞌ a hihii-nanau ngga sa. Te Au uma, huu Eni mana denu Au.
43 Wherefore do ye not understand my speech? because ye cannot hear my word.
Taꞌo bee de hei nda mihine Au oꞌola ngga sa? Mbei ma hei nda nau rena, sa!
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will practise. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not fast in the truth, because truth was not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh what is peculiarly his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Hei ia, mataꞌ sa onaꞌ nitu ra malanggan. Huu hei hiiꞌ a tao tungga eni hihii-nanaun! Mia fefeun, eni mana tao nisa atahori. Eni labꞌan dala ndoo-tetuꞌ ra, ana tola hendi basa ndoo-tetuꞌ ra. Mete ma ana peko-lelekoꞌ, naa memaꞌ eni biasa na. Huu eni mana peko-lelekoꞌ, ma mana ombo-koson huun.
45 But because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
Au ia, mana ufadꞌe dala ndoo-tetuꞌ a. Te hei nda mimihere Au sa.
46 Which of you can convict me of sin? Now if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me?
Sobꞌa! Seka mia hei bisa natudꞌu nalaꞌ bukti nae, Au tao salaꞌ ena? Heran, e! Mete ma Au olaꞌ ndoo-tetuꞌ, taoꞌ bee de hei nda nau mimihere Au sa?
47 He that is of God heareth the words of God: ye therefore do not hear him, because ye are not of God.
Naa, atahori mana laoꞌ mia Lamatualain rena Dedꞌea-oꞌolan. Te hei ia, nda laoꞌ mia Lamatualain sa, naeni de hei nda hii rena Au sa.”
48 Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Do we not rightly affirm, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
Atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara, rataa rae, “Weh! Hai olaꞌ naa tebꞌe ena. Huu hai mifadꞌe ena, Ho ia, nda atahori Yahudi matetuꞌ sa, te Ho atahori Samaria. Ho o nitu a sia ralam ena!”
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Nitu a nda sia Au rala ngga sa. Au fee hada-hormat neu Ama ngga sia sorga, te hei nda fee hada-hormat neu Au sa.
50 But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Au nda soꞌu ao ngga fo utudꞌu manaseli ngga sa. Te hambu Esa nau natudꞌu Au manaseli ngga. Hela Eni mana naꞌetuꞌ nae Au oꞌola ngga nda, do hokoꞌ.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any man observe my saying, he shall never see death to all eternity. (aiōn g165)
Au Dedꞌea-oꞌola ngga, memaꞌ tebꞌe! Ma, atahori mana rena ma tao tungga Dedꞌea oꞌola ngga, nda mate sa.” (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If any man observe my word, he shall never taste of death to eternity. (aiōn g165)
Rena onaꞌ naa, ma atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara rafadꞌe E rae, “Ia naa, hai bubꞌuluꞌ ho olaꞌ onaꞌ muluꞌ e, huu nitu a sia ralam ena. Baꞌi Abraham mate ena. Lamatualain mana ola-ola dalahulu nara, o mate ena boe. Te ho mae, ‘atahori mana rena ma tao tungga Au Dedꞌea-oꞌola ngga ra, nda mate sa.’ Memaꞌ ho mumulu ena! (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
Do duꞌa mae ho manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ baꞌi Abraham mana mateꞌ a? Do, Ho manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ Lamatualain mana ola-olan fo mana mateꞌ ra ena do? Ho duꞌa, mae Ho ia, seka?”
54 Jesus answered, If I assume glory to myself, my glory is nothing: it is the Father who glorifies me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
Boe ma Yesus nataa, nae “Mete ma Au mana soꞌu Ao ngga, atahori nda nau simbo sa. Tao-tao te, Au nda soꞌu-soꞌuꞌ ao ngga sa, te Ama ngga mana soꞌu nanaru Au. Eni fo hei mitaa mae, hei Lamatualain ma.
55 yet have ye not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, that I know him not, I should be like you, a liar: but I know him, and observe his word.
Te hei nda mihine E sa. Au uhine no maloleꞌ. Mete ma Au ae nda uhine maloleꞌ E sa, na, Au mana ombo-koson, onaꞌ hei boe. Te Au uhine maloleꞌ E, ma Au o tao tungga Dedꞌea-oꞌolan boe.
56 Your father Abraham exulted for joy that he should see this day of mine: and saw it, and rejoiced.
Hei baꞌi Abraham ma ralan namahoꞌo seli, leleꞌ ana nahani nae nita Au uꞌuma ngga. Memaꞌ Ana nita ena, de ana maꞌahee.”
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou hast not yet reached the age of fifty, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Atahori Yahudi ra malangga nara rafadꞌe rae, “Ho nda feꞌe too lima nulu sa boe! Te mae ho mita baꞌi Abraham ena. Tebꞌe, do?”
58 Jesus said unto them, Before Abraham had a being, I Am.
Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Tebꞌe! Huu baꞌi Abraham nda feꞌe sia sa, te Au sia ena.”
59 Then took they up stones to hurl at him: but Jesus was hid, and went out of the temple, passing through the midst of them, and so went away.
Boe ma, atahori naa ra haꞌi fatu fo rae honda E, huu Ana soꞌu Aon onaꞌ Lamatualain. Te Ana laoꞌ bambi-bambi de dea neu mia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a sodꞌan.
