John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Nyiamooku a pwklin madvbv, Gamchargo doocho toku; Gamchar v Pwknvyarnv gv lvkobv dooto, okv Gamchar hv Pwknvyarnvnyi akinnv.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
Gamchar v doorap lokv Pwknvyarnv gv lvkobv dooto.
3 All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
Ninyigv lokv Pwknvyarnv ogumvnwngnga pwklin to; pwknamyarnam mvnwng lokv ako daka ninyia dooma mogvrila mvnam go kaama.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
Gamchar v turnam gv linkubv rito, okv so turnam si nyi mvnwngnga loung naalwk jitoku.
5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
Loung ngv kanv lo ungto, okv kanv ngv hum vdwloka mvngit nyuma toku.
6 There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Pwknvyarnv ninyigv gindungpingko nga vngmuto, ho nyi gv aminv Jon,
7 The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
hv nyi vdwa loung gv lvkwngbv minji tvbv aatoku, vkvlvgavbolo mvnwngngv doin a tvvgvrikula mvngjwng rungdukubv.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
Hv atubongv loung mato; hv loung gv lvkwngbv minpa tvvbv aatoku.
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
So si jvjvbv alvyachoknv loung ngv—Loung ngv nyiamooku lo aatoku okv nyi mvnwnglo ungtoku.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
Gamchar v nyiamooku lo dootoku, okv ninyigv lokv Pwknvyarnv ogumvnwngnga mvlin bvka, vbvrijvka nyia nyi vdwv ninyia kaachin matoku.
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
Hv atugv mooku lo aatoku, vbvritola ninyigv nyi vdwv ninyia naarwk sumato.
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:
Megonv, ninyia naarwk sutoku, okv ninyia mvngjwng toku; vkvlvgabv hv bunua Pwknvyarnv gv kuu bv ridubv tolwk toku.
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Hv manv, bunu tanyi anvabu gv kuu bvngchwng lokv Pwknvyarnv gv kuu bv rima; Pwknvyarnv atubongv bunugv abu bv rito.
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.
Gamchar v nyi gobv rilin toku okv jvjv okv aya ngv yarbing nvgobv rila, ngonugv dookurikulo doomingriming gvto. Ngonu ninyigv yunglit nama kaatoku, ninyigv Abu gv Kuunyilo hotum gubvrila yunglit nvgobv paanam a.
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.’”
Jon ninyigv lvkwngbv japjito. Hv kapla minto, “So si ngoogv minam v ngo vbv minto, ‘Hv ngoogv kochinglo aadu, vbvritola hv nga kaiyanv, ogulvgavbolo hv nga bvngma dwbv doolin chonv.’”
16 From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
Hv aya gv yarbing kolokv hv ngonu mvnwngnga achialvbv ayato, ako jidv gv aolo ako jitamla bokta jidv toku.
17 For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
Moses gv lokv Pwknvyarnv Pvbv nga jito, vbvritola jvjv okv aya ngv Jisu Kristo gvlokv aatoku.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
Yvvka Pwknvyarnvnyi kaakw nvgo kaama. Kuunyilo mvngchik, Abu gvlo doonv, Pwknvyarnvnyi akin kunv, hv bunua Pwknvyarnvnyi chimu toku.
19 This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
Jerusalem gv Jius rigvdakgvnv vdwv nyibu vkvla okv Lebait mego vngmuto, Jonnyi “No yvvla?” vla tvvka modubv.
20 He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
Jon mirwk siji makv vmato, vbvritola pvbwng vrwngbv minpok jitoku, svbv minto: “Ngo Kristo ma.”
21 They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
Bunu tvkato, “Vbvrikunamv no yvvla? No Elija re?” “Ma, ngo ma,” Jon mirwkto. Bunu tvvkato, “No Nyijwk vri?” Hv mirwkto, “Ma”.
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?”
“Vbvrikunamv ngonua minjilabv no yvvla,” bunu minto. “Ngonu ngonua kanamnv vdwa vngkur dukula mirwk jireku.” “No atubongv ogu vla minsu dunv?”
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.”
Jon Aijaya gv minam a mintaknvla mirwk sitoku: “Chukrimooku lo nyi ako gokdungdo ho vlv angv ngo: Ahtu gv lvgabv vngdubv lamtv nga sorchi dubv mvtoka!”
24 The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
Gindungpingko vdwv, Parisis vdwgv vngmukunam vdwv,
25 They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
vbvrikunamv Jonnyi tvvkato, “No Kristo mabolo vmalo Elija vmaloka Nyijwk ngvma bolo, no ogubv Baptisma jidunv?”
26 John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
Jon mirwkto, “Ngo nonua isi lokv Baptisma jidunv, vbvritola nonugv pingkolo nonugv chimanam nyi go daklinre.
27 He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
Hv ngoogv kochinglo aadungdu, vbvritola ngo ninyigv lvkiam gv oso haka taasok yadubvka riyin yama.”
28 These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
So mvnwng si Betani lo ritoku Jordan svko gv doonyi chaalin kiambv, Jon gv baptisma jidung kolo.
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!
Alu loogu nvnga Jon Jisunyi ninyi gvlo aadu bv kaagv rikula minto, “Hvvnv Pwknvyarnv gv svlarkuu ngv nyiamooku gv rimur a naa jikunv!
30 This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
So siinv ngoogv minamv, ‘Nyi go ngo kochingbv aadungdu, vbvritola hv nga kaiyanv, ogulvgavbolo hv nga bvngma dwbv doolinchonv.’
31 I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
Ngo chimato hv yvvdw, vbvritola ngo Israel nyi vdwa ninyia chimu dubv vla isi lokv baptisma jila aapvnv.”
32 John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
Okv Jon so gv gaam sum minji toku: “Ngo nyido ao tolokv Darwknv Dow v taakw jvbv ritola nw gvlo jarlwkla doodubv kaatoku.
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.’
Hvkunyi vla vjaklodvbv ngo chima toku, vbvritola Pwknvyarnv, yvvdw nga isi lokv baptisma jidubv aamunv, hv nga svbv minto, ‘No Dow a ila nyi ako gvlo doolwk dubv kaapare; ho nyi angv Darwknv Dow lokv baptisma jiji kunv.’
34 I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
Um ngo kaatoku,” Jon minto, “Okv ngo nonua minjidunv hv kunv Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngv.”
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
Alu loogu nvnga Jon ninyigv Lwbwlaksu anyia lvkobv hoka lvkodv dakdvto,
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
Vdwlo hv Jisunyi hoka vngdubv kaapa tokudw hv minto, “Vnv Pwknvyarnv gv Svlarkuu ngv!”
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
Lwbwlaksu anyiv ninyia svbv mindubv tvvgvrikula Jisunyi lvkobv vngming gvtoku.
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?”
Jisu dakur toku, okv bunua ninyia vngming gvdubv kaato, okv tvvkato, “Nonu ogugola kaadung dunv?” Bunu mirwkto, “Rabbi, no ogulo doodunv?” (Rabbi vnam si “Tamsarnv” vla minam v).
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.
Hv mirwkto, “Aala kaatoka.” (Vbvrikunamv ho doonyiv tabv laku api baji toku.) Vkvlvgabv bunu ninyia vngming gvtoku okv ninyigv dooku a kaatoku, okv ho alu lo ninyia lvkobv doomwng gvtoku.
40 One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
Bunugv lokv akonv Andriu, Saimon Pitar gv boru.
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
Vjakgobv ninyigv achi Saimonnyi kaapa toku okv ninyia minto, “Ngonu Messianyi paapvku.” (So gv minam si “Kristo”)
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).
Vbvrikunamv hv Saimonnyi Jisu gvlo aagv toku. Jisu ninyia kaatoku okv minto, “No gv aminv Saimon Jon gv kuunyilo, vbvritola nam Kepas vla minreku.” (So minam si Pitar vla minam a akin v, “Vlwng lvngrak vnammv.”)
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
Alu loogu nvnga Jisu Galili lo vngdubv mvngtoku. Hv Pilipnyi kaapato okv ninyia minto, “Ngoogv lvkobv vngming gvlaak!”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
Pilip Betsaida lokv, Pitar gvla Andriu gv dooku banggu akin gvngv.
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.”
Pilip Natanael nyika kaapa toku okv ninyia minpa toku, “Ngonu Pvbv kitaplo Moses gv lvknam okv nyijwk vdwgv lvkpanam nyi anga paapvku. Hv Jisu Josep gv kuunyilo, Najareth lokv.”
46 Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
“Najareth lokv alvnv yikungyira ngv linla dunvdw?” vla Natanael tvkato. Pilip mirwkto, “Aato okv kaalak.”
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
Vdwlo Jisu Natanaelnyi ninyi gvlo aadukubv kaatokudw nyi ho gv lvgabv minto, “Siinv Israel nyi jvngv; ninyi gvlo mvvnamrunam go kaama!”
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.”
Natanael ninyia tvkato, “No nga oguaingbv chimpvnv?” Jisu mirwkto, “Pilip gv nam gokma dwbv ngo nam koksitkokrik singnv kolv lo doodubv kaato.”
49 Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
Natanael mirwk sitoku, “Tamsarnv,” “No kunyi Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngv! No Israel gv Dvbv ngvku!”
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!”
Jisu minto, “Nam ngo koksitkokrik singnv kolv lo kaapvnv vnam lokv no nga mvngjwng mvngdunvre? No sumka kaiyanv awgo kaapare!”
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.”
Okv nw bunua minto, “Ngo nonua jvjv nvnga minjidunv: nonu nyidomooku agi hv kokok dubv okv Pwknvyarnv gv Gindungpingko ngv Nyia Kuunyilo gvlo ila chaala ridubv kaapare.”
