< John 1 >

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
آدَو وادَ آسِیتْ سَ چَ وادَ اِیشْوَرینَ سارْدھَماسِیتْ سَ وادَح سْوَیَمِیشْوَرَ ایوَ۔
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
سَ آداوِیشْوَرینَ سَہاسِیتْ۔
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
تینَ سَرْوَّں وَسْتُ سَسرِجے سَرْوّیشُ سرِشْٹَوَسْتُشُ کِمَپِ وَسْتُ تیناسرِشْٹَں ناسْتِ۔
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
سَ جِیوَنَسْیاکارَح، تَچَّ جِیوَنَں مَنُشْیاناں جْیوتِح
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
تَجّیوتِرَنْدھَکارے پْرَچَکاشے کِنْتْوَنْدھَکارَسْتَنَّ جَگْراہَ۔
6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
یوہَنْ نامَکَ ایکو مَنُجَ اِیشْوَرینَ پْریشَیانْچَکْرے۔
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
تَدْوارا یَتھا سَرْوّے وِشْوَسَنْتِ تَدَرْتھَں سَ تَجّیوتِشِ پْرَمانَں داتُں ساکْشِسْوَرُوپو بھُوتْواگَمَتْ،
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
سَ سْوَیَں تَجّیوتِ رْنَ کِنْتُ تَجّیوتِشِ پْرَمانَں داتُماگَمَتْ۔
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
جَگَتْیاگَتْیَ یَح سَرْوَّمَنُجیبھْیو دِیپْتِں دَداتِ تَدیوَ سَتْیَجْیوتِح۔
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
سَ یَجَّگَدَسرِجَتْ تَنْمَدْیَ ایوَ سَ آسِیتْ کِنْتُ جَگَتو لوکاسْتَں ناجانَنْ۔
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
نِجادھِکارَں سَ آگَچّھَتْ کِنْتُ پْرَجاسْتَں ناگرِہْلَنْ۔
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name:
تَتھاپِ یے یے تَمَگرِہْلَنْ اَرْتھاتْ تَسْیَ نامْنِ وْیَشْوَسَنْ تیبھْیَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پُتْرا بھَوِتُمْ اَدھِکارَمْ اَدَداتْ۔
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
تیشاں جَنِح شونِتانَّ شارِیرِکابھِلاشانَّ مانَوانامِچّھاتو نَ کِنْتْوِیشْوَرادَبھَوَتْ۔
14 The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
سَ وادو مَنُشْیَرُوپیناوَتِیرْیَّ سَتْیَتانُگْرَہابھْیاں پَرِپُورْنَح سَنْ سارْدھَمْ اَسْمابھِ رْنْیَوَسَتْ تَتَح پِتُرَدْوِتِییَپُتْرَسْیَ یوگْیو یو مَہِما تَں مَہِمانَں تَسْیاپَشْیامَ۔
15 John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
تَتو یوہَنَپِ پْرَچارْیَّ ساکْشْیَمِدَں دَتَّوانْ یو مَمَ پَشْچادْ آگَمِشْیَتِ سَ مَتّو گُرُتَرَح؛ یَتو مَتْپُورْوَّں سَ وِدْیَمانَ آسِیتْ؛ یَدَرْتھَمْ اَہَں ساکْشْیَمِدَمْ اَداں سَ ایشَح۔
16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
اَپَرَنْچَ تَسْیَ پُورْنَتایا وَیَں سَرْوّے کْرَمَشَح کْرَمَشونُگْرَہَں پْراپْتاح۔
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
مُوسادْوارا وْیَوَسْتھا دَتّا کِنْتْوَنُگْرَہَح سَتْیَتْوَنْچَ یِیشُکھْرِیشْٹَدْوارا سَمُپاتِشْٹھَتاں۔
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
کوپِ مَنُجَ اِیشْوَرَں کَداپِ ناپَشْیَتْ کِنْتُ پِتُح کْروڈَسْتھودْوِتِییَح پُتْرَسْتَں پْرَکاشَیَتْ۔
19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
تْوَں کَح؟ اِتِ واکْیَں پْریشْٹُں یَدا یِہُودِییَلوکا یاجَکانْ لیوِلوکاںشْچَ یِرُوشالَمو یوہَنَح سَمِیپے پْریشَیاماسُح،
20 He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
تَدا سَ سْوِیکرِتَوانْ ناپَہْنُوتَوانْ ناہَمْ اَبھِشِکْتَ اِتْیَنْگِیکرِتَوانْ۔
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
تَدا تےپرِچّھَنْ تَرْہِ کو بھَوانْ؟ کِں ایلِیَح؟ سووَدَتْ نَ؛ تَتَسْتےپرِچّھَنْ تَرْہِ بھَوانْ سَ بھَوِشْیَدْوادِی؟ سووَدَتْ ناہَں سَح۔
22 They said therefore to him, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
تَدا تےپرِچّھَنْ تَرْہِ بھَوانْ کَح؟ وَیَں گَتْوا پْریرَکانْ تْوَیِ کِں وَکْشْیامَح؟ سْوَسْمِنْ کِں وَدَسِ؟
23 He said, “I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ as Isaiah the prophet said.”
تَدا سووَدَتْ۔ پَرَمیشَسْیَ پَنْتھانَں پَرِشْکُرُتَ سَرْوَّتَح۔ اِتِیدَں پْرانْتَرے واکْیَں وَدَتَح کَسْیَچِدْرَوَح۔ کَتھامِماں یَسْمِنْ یِشَیِیو بھَوِشْیَدْوادِی لِکھِتَوانْ سوہَمْ۔
24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
یے پْریشِتاسْتے پھِرُوشِلوکاح۔
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
تَدا تےپرِچّھَنْ یَدِ نابھِشِکْتوسِ ایلِیوسِ نَ سَ بھَوِشْیَدْوادْیَپِ ناسِ چَ، تَرْہِ لوکانْ مَجَّیَسِ کُتَح؟
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
تَتو یوہَنْ پْرَتْیَووچَتْ، تویےہَں مَجَّیامِیتِ سَتْیَں کِنْتُ یَں یُویَں نَ جانِیتھَ تادرِشَ ایکو جَنو یُشْماکَں مَدھْیَ اُپَتِشْٹھَتِ۔
27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
سَ مَتْپَشْچادْ آگَتوپِ مَتْپُورْوَّں وَرْتَّمانَ آسِیتْ تَسْیَ پادُکابَنْدھَنَں موچَیِتُمَپِ ناہَں یوگْیوسْمِ۔
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
یَرْدَّنَنَدْیاح پارَسْتھَبَیتھَبارایاں یَسْمِنْسْتھانے یوہَنَمَجَّیَتْ تَسْمِنَ سْتھانے سَرْوَّمیتَدْ اَگھَٹَتَ۔
29 The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
پَرےہَنِ یوہَنْ سْوَنِکَٹَماگَچّھَنْتَں یِشُں وِلوکْیَ پْراووچَتْ جَگَتَح پاپَموچَکَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ میشَشاوَکَں پَشْیَتَ۔
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
یو مَمَ پَشْچاداگَمِشْیَتِ سَ مَتّو گُرُتَرَح، یَتو ہیتورْمَتْپُورْوَّں سووَرْتَّتَ یَسْمِنَّہَں کَتھامِماں کَتھِتَوانْ سَ ایوایَں۔
31 I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
اَپَرَں ناہَمینَں پْرَتْیَبھِجْناتَوانْ کِنْتُ اِسْراییلّوکا اینَں یَتھا پَرِچِنْوَنْتِ تَدَبھِپْراییناہَں جَلے مَجَّیِتُماگَچّھَمْ۔
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
پُنَشْچَ یوہَنَپَرَمیکَں پْرَمانَں دَتْوا کَتھِتَوانْ وِہایَسَح کَپوتَوَدْ اَوَتَرَنْتَماتْمانَمْ اَسْیوپَرْیَّوَتِشْٹھَنْتَں چَ درِشْٹَوانَہَمْ۔
33 I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
ناہَمینَں پْرَتْیَبھِجْناتَوانْ اِتِ سَتْیَں کِنْتُ یو جَلے مَجَّیِتُں ماں پْرَیرَیَتْ سَ ایویماں کَتھامَکَتھَیَتْ یَسْیوپَرْیّاتْمانَمْ اَوَتَرَنْتَمْ اَوَتِشْٹھَنْتَنْچَ دْرَکْشَیَسِ سَایوَ پَوِتْرے آتْمَنِ مَجَّیِشْیَتِ۔
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
اَوَسْتَنِّرِیکْشْیایَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ تَنَیَ اِتِ پْرَمانَں دَدامِ۔
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
پَرےہَنِ یوہَنْ دْوابھْیاں شِشْیابھْیاں سارْدّھیں تِشْٹھَنْ
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
یِشُں گَچّھَنْتَں وِلوکْیَ گَدِتَوانْ، اِیشْوَرَسْیَ میشَشاوَکَں پَشْیَتَں۔
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
اِماں کَتھاں شْرُتْوا دْوَو شِشْیَو یِیشوح پَشْچادْ اِییَتُح۔
38 Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
تَتو یِیشُح پَراورِتْیَ تَو پَشْچادْ آگَچّھَنْتَو درِشْٹْوا پرِشْٹَوانْ یُواں کِں گَویشَیَتھَح؟ تاوَپرِچّھَتاں ہے رَبِّ اَرْتھاتْ ہے گُرو بھَوانْ کُتْرَ تِشْٹھَتِ؟
39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
تَتَح سووادِتْ ایتْیَ پَشْیَتَں۔ تَتو دِوَسَسْیَ ترِتِییَپْرَہَرَسْیَ گَتَتْواتْ تَو تَدِّنَں تَسْیَ سَنْگےسْتھاتاں۔
40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
یَو دْوَو یوہَنو واکْیَں شْرُتْوا یِشوح پَشْچادْ آگَمَتاں تَیوح شِمونْپِتَرَسْیَ بھْراتا آنْدْرِیَح
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
سَ اِتْوا پْرَتھَمَں نِجَسودَرَں شِمونَں ساکْشاتْپْراپْیَ کَتھِتَوانْ وَیَں کھْرِیشْٹَمْ اَرْتھاتْ اَبھِشِکْتَپُرُشَں ساکْشاتْکرِتَوَنْتَح۔
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
پَشْچاتْ سَ تَں یِشوح سَمِیپَمْ آنَیَتْ۔ تَدا یِیشُسْتَں درِشْٹْواوَدَتْ تْوَں یُونَسَح پُتْرَح شِمونْ کِنْتُ تْوَنّامَدھییَں کَیپھاح وا پِتَرَح اَرْتھاتْ پْرَسْتَرو بھَوِشْیَتِ۔
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
پَرےہَنِ یِیشَو گالِیلَں گَنْتُں نِشْچِتَچیتَسِ سَتِ پھِلِپَنامانَں جَنَں ساکْشاتْپْراپْیاووچَتْ مَمَ پَشْچادْ آگَچّھَ۔
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
بَیتْسَیدانامْنِ یَسْمِنْ گْرامے پِتَرانْدْرِیَیورْواسَ آسِیتْ تَسْمِنْ گْرامے تَسْیَ پھِلِپَسْیَ وَسَتِراسِیتْ۔
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
پَشْچاتْ پھِلِپو نِتھَنیلَں ساکْشاتْپْراپْیاوَدَتْ مُوسا وْیَوَسْتھا گْرَنْتھے بھَوِشْیَدْوادِناں گْرَنْتھیشُ چَ یَسْیاکھْیانَں لِکھِتَماسْتے تَں یُوشَپھَح پُتْرَں ناسَرَتِییَں یِیشُں ساکْشادْ اَکارْشْمَ وَیَں۔
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
تَدا نِتھَنیلْ کَتھِتَوانْ ناسَرَنَّگَراتَ کِں کَشْچِدُتَّمَ اُتْپَنْتُں شَکْنوتِ؟ تَتَح پھِلِپو ووچَتْ ایتْیَ پَشْیَ۔
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
اَپَرَنْچَ یِیشُح سْوَسْیَ سَمِیپَں تَمْ آگَچّھَنْتَں درِشْٹْوا وْیاہرِتَوانْ، پَشْیایَں نِشْکَپَٹَح سَتْیَ اِسْراییلّوکَح۔
48 Nathanael said to him, “How do you know me?” Jesus answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
تَتَح سووَدَدْ، بھَوانْ ماں کَتھَں پْرَتْیَبھِجاناتِ؟ یِیشُرَوادِیتْ پھِلِپَسْیَ آہْواناتْ پُورْوَّں یَدا تْوَمُڈُمْبَرَسْیَ تَرورْمُولےسْتھاسْتَدا تْوامَدَرْشَمْ۔
49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
نِتھَنیلْ اَچَکَتھَتْ، ہے گُرو بھَوانْ نِتانْتَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ پُتْروسِ، بھَوانْ اِسْراییلْوَںشَسْیَ راجا۔
50 Jesus answered him, “Because I told you, ‘I saw you underneath the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these!”
تَتو یِیشُ رْوْیاہَرَتْ، تْوامُڈُمْبَرَسْیَ پادَپَسْیَ مُولے درِشْٹَواناہَں مَمَیتَسْمادْواکْیاتْ کِں تْوَں وْیَشْوَسِیح؟ ایتَسْمادَپْیاشْچَرْیّانِ کارْیّانِ دْرَکْشْیَسِ۔
51 He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
اَنْیَچّاوادِیدْ یُشْمانَہَں یَتھارْتھَں وَدامِ، اِتَح پَرَں موچِتے میگھَدْوارے تَسْمانْمَنُجَسُونُنا اِیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتَگَنَمْ اَوَروہَنْتَماروہَنْتَنْچَ دْرَکْشْیَتھَ۔
