< Yohana 8 >

1 Yesu akalota kid'onda kya mizeituni.
And at dawn he came again to the temple,
2 Lubhuliku akahida kabhele mu lihekalu, ni bhanu bhoha bhakandotela; akatama ni kubhafundisya.
and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them;
3 Bhaandishi ni Mafarisayo bhakandeta n'dala jha akamuili bhugoni. Bhakambeka pagati.
and the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman having been taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 Ndipo bhakan'jobhela Yesu, “Mwalimu, n'dala ojhu akamuliki bhugoni, kwa kitendo kabisa.
they say to him, 'Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime — committing adultery,
5 Henu, sheria, Musa atujobhili kubhatobha maganga bhana kama abha, ghwijobhuli juu jha muene?
and in the law, Moses did command us that such be stoned; thou, therefore, what dost thou say?'
6 Bhajobhili agha ili kun'tegha tu ili kwamba bhakabhayi lijambo lya kun'takila, lakini Yesu ajhineme pasi alembili palifu kwa kikonji kya muene.
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 Bho bhijhendelela kun'kota ajhemili ni kubhajobhela, “Muene jhaajhelepi ni dhambi miongoni mwa muenga, ajhe layi wa kwanza kuh'oma liganga.”
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 Akajhinama kabhele pasi, akalemba ni kikonji kya muene pasi.
and again having stooped down, he was writing on the ground,
9 Bho bhap'eliki aghu bhabhokili mmonga badala jha jhongi, kujhandila jhaajhe n'seya. Mwishu Yesu alekibhu muene, pamonga ni n'dala jha ajhele pagati pa bhene.
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 Yesu ajhemili ni kun'jobhela, “N'dala bhabhakutakili bhajhendaku? Ajhelepi hata mmonga jhaakutakili?”
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 Akajobha, “Ajhelepi hata mmonga Bwana.” Yesu akajobha, “Hata nene nikutakila lepi. Lotayi njela jha yobhi; kujhandila henu ni kujhendelela usibhombi dhambi kabhele.”
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 Kabhele Yesu alungili ni bhanu akajobha, “Nene ndo nuru jha ulimwengu; muene jha akanikesya ibetalepi kugenda mu ngisi bali ibetakujha ni nuru jha bhusima.”
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 Mafarisayo bhakan'jobhela, “Ghwikishuhudila ghwa muene bhushuhuda bhwa jhobhi bhwa bhukweli lepi.”
The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, 'Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;'
14 Yesu ajibili akabhajobhela, “Hata kama nibetakwishuhudila ne muene, bhushuhuda bhwangu bhwa bhukweli. Nimanyili kwa nih'omela ni khola kwa nilota, lakini muenga mumanyilepi mahali kwa nihoma ni kwanilota.
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 Muenga mwihukumula kimb'ele; nene nikan'takila lepi jhejhioha.
'Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one,
16 Nene hata nikatakilayi hukumu jha nene jha bhukweli kwa ndabha njelepi ne muene, bali nje ni dadi jhangu jha anilaghisi.
and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me;
17 Ena, ni ku sheria jha muenga jhilembibhu kujha bhushuhuda bhwa bhanu bhabhele bhwa bhukweli.
and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true;
18 Nene ndo jhanikishuhudila, ni Dadi jha anilaghisye akanishuhudila.”
I am [one] who is testifying of myself, and the Father who sent me doth testify of me.'
19 Bhakan'jobhela, “Dadi waku ajhe ndaku?” Yesu ajibili, “nene munimanyilepi; ng'amuyimunimanyi nene, ngamumanyi ni Dadi jhangu.”
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 Ajobhi malobhi agha ajhe karibu ni hazina pa afundisieghe mu lihekalu, na ajhe lepi hata mmonga jha an'kamuili kwa ndabha saa jha muene jhajhejhakona kufika.
These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come;
21 Basi akabhajobhela kabhele, “Nikilotela; mwibetakunilonda na mwibetakufwa ni dhambi sya jhomu. Khola kwa nilota, mwibwesya lepi kuhida.”
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 Bhayahudi bhakajobha, “Ibetakwikoma muene, muene jha ajobhili, 'khola kwanilota mwibhwesya lepi kuhida'?”
The Jews, therefore, said, 'Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?'
23 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Mwihomela pasi; nene nihomela kunani. Muenga bha ulimwengu obho nene sio ghwa ulimwengu obho.
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 Henu, nabhajobhili kujha mwibetakufwa ni dhambi sya jhomu. Labda mukyerayi kujha NENE NDIYE, mwibetakufwa ni dhambi sya jhomu”.
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 Kabhele bhakayanda kunijobhela, “Bhebhe ghwa niani?” Yesu akabhajobhela, ghala ghanibhajobhili kuhomela kubhwandelu.
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 Nijhe ni mambo mingi gha kulongela ni hukumu juu jha muenga. Hata naha, muene jha anilaghisye ni ghwa bhukweli; ni mambo gha nighap'eliki kuhoma kwa muene, mambo agha nikaghajobha kwa bhulimwengu.”
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 Bhanjelibhu lepi kujha alongeleghe kuhusu Dadi.
They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;
28 Yesu akajobha, “Pamwibetakunjinula panani Muana ghwa Munu, ndipo pa mwibetakumanya kujha NENE NDO MUENE, ni kwamba nibhomba lepi lyolyoha kwa nafsi jha nene. Kama Dadi kya animanyisi, nilongela mambo agha.
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 Muene jha anitumili ajhele pamonga nani, ni muene anilekililepi ne muene, kwandabha khila mara nibhomba ghala ghaghikampendesya.”
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 Wakati Yesu ijobha mambo agha, bhingi bhankieriri.
As he is speaking these things, many believed in him;
31 Yesu akajobha kwa bhala Bhayahudi bhabhankieriri, “Pamwibetakutama mu lilobhi lya nene, ndipo pamwibetakujha bhanafunzi bha nene kueli,
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 namu mwibetakujhimanya kuweli, ni kuweli jhibetakubhabheka huru.”
and the truth shall make you free.'
33 Bhan'jibili, “Tete ndo bhuzao bhwa Ibrahimu ni kamwe tubhwayilepi kujha pasi pa utumwa ghwa jhejhioha; ghwijobha bhuli, “Tubekubhekibhwa huru?”
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 Yesu abhajibhili, “Muaminiayi, muaminiayi, nikabhajobhela, khila jhaibetakubhomba dhambi ndo n'tumwa ghwa dhambi.
Jesus answered them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you — Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,
35 N'tumwa itamalepi kunyumba mda ghuoha; muana itamisya mda ghuoha. (aiōn g165)
and the servant doth not remain in the house — to the age, the son doth remain — to the age; (aiōn g165)
36 Henu, ikajhelayi muana abhabhekili huru, mwibetakujha huru kabisa.”
if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.
37 Nimanyili kujha muenga ndo bhuzao bhwa Ibrahimu; mwilonda kunikoma kwandabha lilobhi lya nene lijhelepi ni nafasi kwa muenga.
'I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you;
38 Nijobha mambo ambagho nighabhuene pamonga ni Dadi jhangu, ni muenga khelakhela mwibhomba mambo ambagho mwaghap'eleki kuhoma kwa dadi jhinu.”
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 Bhajibili ni kun'jobhela, “Dadi jhitu ndo Ibrahimu.” Yesu akabhajobhela, Kama ngamujhebhana bha Ibrahimu, ngamubhomba mbombo sya Ibrahimu.
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 Hata henu mwilonda kunikoma, munu jha abhajobhili bhukweli kujha nap'eliki kuhomela kwa K'yara. Abrahamu abhombilepi naha.
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 Mbombambombo sya dadi jhinu.” Bhakan'jobhela, “Twahogolikilepi mu uzinzi, tujhenaku Dadi mmonga, K'yara.”
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 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Ikajhiajhi K'yara ndo Dadi jhinu, ngamunigani nene, kwa ndabha nihomili kwa K'yara; wala nahidilepi kwa nafsi jha jhoni, bali muene jha anilaghisi.
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 Kwandabha jha kiki mukaghajhelebhwa lepi malobhi ghangu? Kwa ndabha mwibhwesyalepi kusindamala kughap'eleka malobhi ghangu.
wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.
44 Muenga ndo bha dadi jhinu, syetani, na mwilonda kusibhomba tamaa sya dadi jhinu. Ajhele n'komi kuhomela kubhwandelu na ibhwesyalepi kujhema mu bhukweli kwandabha kweli jhilepi kwa muene. Pailongela bhudesi, ilongela kuhoma kiasili jha muene kwa ndabha n'desi ni dadi ghwa bhudesi.
'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 Hata henu, kwa ndabha nijobha jhajhijhela jha bhukweli, mukanikiera lepi.
'And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me.
46 Niani kati jha muenga jhaakanishuhudila kujha nijhe ni dhambi? ikajhiajhi nijobha gha bhukweli, kwandabhajhakiki mkanikiera lepi?
Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?
47 Muene jha ajhe ghwa K'yara akaghapeleka malobhi gha K'yara; muenga mukaghap'eleka lepi kwandabha muenga bha K'yara lepi.”
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 Bhayahudi bhakan'jibu ni kun'jobhela, tujobhilepi bhukweli kujha bhebhe ndo Msamaria na ujhe ni pepo?”
The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, 'Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?'
49 Yesu ajibili, nijhelepi ni pepo; lakini nikan'heshimu Dadi jhangu namu mukaniheshimu lepi.
Jesus answered, 'I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;
50 Nilonda lepi bhutukufu bhwangu; ajhe mmonga jhailonda ni kuhukumu.
and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging;
51 Aminiayi, aminiayi, nikabhajobhela, iwapo jhejhioha jhaibetakulikamula lilobhi lyangu, ibetalepi kubhona mauti kamwe.” (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 Bhayahudi bhakan'hobhela, “Henu tumanyili kujha ujhe ni pepo. Abrahamu ni manabii bhafuili; lakini ghwijobha, 'Ikajhiajhi munu ibetakulikamula lilobhi lyangu, ibetakubhonja lepi mauti'. (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 Bhebhe ghwa mbaha lepi kuliko dadi jhitu Abrahamu jhaafuili, sivyo? Manabii pia bhafuili. Bhebhe ukibheka ghwe niani?”
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?'
54 Yesu akajibu, “Ikajhiayi nibetakwitukusya ne muene bhutukufu bhwa nene ndo bure; ni Dadi jhangu jhaanitukuisi - jhola jha mukan'jobha kujha ndo K'yara ghwinu.
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 Muenga mu mmanyilepi muene, lakini nene nimanyili muene. Ikajhiajhi nibetakujobha, 'nimanyilepi,' nibetakujha kama muenga, n'desi. Hata naha, nimmanyili ni malobhi gha muene nighakamuili.
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 Dadi jhinu Abrahamu ahobhwiki paibetakujhibhona ligono lya nene; ajhibhwene na ahobhwiki.”
Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.'
57 Bhayahudi bhakan'jobhela, “Ufikisilepi umri ghwa miaka hamsini bado, nabhi umbwene Ibrahimu?”
The Jews, therefore, said unto him, 'Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?'
58 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Aminiayi, aminiayi, nikabhajobhela, kabla Abrahamu ahogiliki lepi, NENE NIJHELE.”
Jesus said to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham's coming — I am;'
59 Ndipo bhaholili maganga bhabhwesiajhi kun'tobha, lakini Yesu akifighili ni kuhoma kwibhala mu hekalu.
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.
