Yohana 3
1 Abile Farisayo ywakemilwe lina lyake Nikodemo, yumo ya ajumbe ba baraza lya Ayahudi.
And there was a man of the Pharisees, his name Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;
2 Mundu yoo atin'yendya Ngwana Yesu kilo ni kummakiya”Rabi, tutangite kuwa u mwalimu kuoma kwa Nnongo, kwa mana ntopo mundu ywaweza panga ishara zeno zoti abile pamope ni Nnongo.”
this one came to Him by night and said to Him, “Rabbi, we have known that You have come from God—a teacher, for no one is able to do these signs that You do, if God may not be with him.”
3 Yesu kayangwa, “Amini, amini, mundu aweza kwaa jingya mu'upwalume wa Nnongo mana abelekwile kwaa mara ya ibele.”
Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone may not be born from above, he is not able to see the Kingdom of God”;
4 Nikodemo kabaya, “Mundu awesa kinamani belekwa muda abile mpindo? Aweza kwaa jingya mu'ndumbo lya mao bake mara ya na'ibele ni belekwa, je ywaweza?
Nicodemus says to Him, “How is a man able to be born, being old? Is he able to enter into the womb of his mother a second time, and to be born?”
5 Yesu kan'yangwa, “Amini amini mundu ywa abelekwile kwaa mu'mase ni kwa Roho, aweza kwaa jingya mu'upwalume wa Nnongo.
Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if anyone may not be born of water and the Spirit, he is not able to enter into the Kingdom of God;
6 Chabile belekwa ni yega nga yega, na chabelekwile ni Roho nga roho.
that which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Kana ushangae kwa mana natikukumakiya,'lazima kubelekwa mara ya ibele.'
You may not wonder that I said to you, It is required for you to be born from above;
8 Mbepo ipuma popoti paupendile ni lilobe lyake mwaiyowa, lakini mtangite kwaa pa'ubokile wala kwouyenda. Nga ibile hali ya kila ywabelekwile ni Roho.
the Spirit blows where [that] One wills, and you hear [that] One’s voice, but you have not known from where [that] One comes, and to where [that] One goes; thus is everyone who has been born of the Spirit.”
9 Nikodemo kayangwa, no baya, “Makowe aga gapangika kinamani?
Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How are these things able to happen?”
10 Yesu kannyangwa, “Wenga wa mwalimu wa Israeli, hata ugatangite kwaa makowe aga?
Jesus answered and said to him, “You are the teacher of Israel and you do not know these things?
11 Amini, amini nakumakiya, chelo tukiyowine twaishuhudia kwa chelo twakibweni. Lakini upokea kwaa ushuhuda witu.
Truly, truly, I say to you, what We have known We speak, and what We have seen We testify, and you do not receive Our testimony;
12 Kati niabakiye makowe ya pano pa'nnema ni mwamini kwaa, muwesa kinamani kuamini kati natikuabakiya makowe ga kumaunde?
if I spoke to you of the earthly things, and you do not believe, how, if I will speak to you of the heavenly things, will you believe?
13 Mana ntopo ywapanda nnani kuoma kumaunde ila ywembe ywauluka, mwana wa Adamu.
And no one has gone up to Heaven, except He who came down out of Heaven—the Son of Man who is in Heaven.
14 Kati Musa mwaankakatuye nngambo mulijangwa, nyonyo Mwana wa Adamu lazima akakatuyilwe,
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so it is necessary for the Son of Man to be lifted up,
that everyone who is believing in Him may not perish, but may have continuous life, (aiōnios g166)
16 Kwa mana nga namna yee Nnongo aipendile dunia, kam'boywa mwana wake wa pekee, ili mundu yeyoti ywamwamini kana aangamiye ila abe ni ukoti wangayomoka. (aiōnios g166)
for God so loved the world that He gave the only begotten Son, that everyone who is believing in Him may not perish, but may have continuous life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Kwa mana Nnongo amtumite kwaa mwana wake mu dunia ili kuihukumu dunia ila dunia ilopolewe pitya ywembe.
For God did not send His Son into the world that He may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through Him;
18 Ywamwamini ywembe alowa hukumilwa kwaa. Ywembe ywange mwamini tayari atihukumilwa kwa mana aliamini kwaa lina lya Mwana pekee ywa Nnongo.
he who is believing in Him is not judged, but he who is not believing has been judged already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 Ayee nga sababu ya hukumu, ya panga bweya uisile mu'ulimwengu, Lakini bandu kabapenda muno libendo kwa mana makowe gabe gabile mabou.
And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil;
20 kila mundu ywapanga mabou uitola bweya wala aisa kwaa mu'bweya ili makowe gake gabonekane kwaa.
for everyone who is doing wicked things hates the light, and does not come into the light, that his works may not be detected;
21 Lakini, ywembe ywapanga kweli uisa mu'bweya ili makowe gake gabonekane gapangilwe kwa eshima ya Nnongo.
but he who is doing the truth comes into the light, that his works may be revealed, that in God they are having been worked.”
22 Baada ya aga, Yesu pamope ni anapunzi bake batiyenda mu'nnema ya Yudea. Kolyo kabatumia muda pamope nabo ni abile atiabatiza.
After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He tarried with them, and was immersing;
23 Nambeambe Yohana abile atikwabatiza kolyo Ainea papipi ni Salim maana pabile ni mase ganansima palyo.
and John was also immersing in Aenon, near to Salem, because there were many waters there, and they were coming and were being immersed—
24 Kwa mana Yohana abile atabilwe kwa muligereza.
for John was not yet cast into the prison—
25 Pabile papangilwe mabishano nkati ya anapunzi ba Yohana na Myahudi husu sikukuu ya utakaso.
there arose then a question from the disciples of John with [some] Jews about purifying,
26 Kabayenda kwa Yohana kabammakiya, “Rabi, ywembe waubile niywembe ng'ambo ya mto Yordani, ywembe ywashuhudia habari yake, linga, aabatiza ni bote bayenda kunkengama.”
and they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you testified, behold, this One is immersing, and all are coming to Him.”
27 Yohana kayangwa mundu aweza kwaa pokya kilebe chochote ila kati ywapeilwe kuoma kumaunde.
John answered and said, “A man is not able to receive anything if it may not have been given him from Heaven;
28 Mwenga mwabene mwatishuhudia kuwa nabayite kuwa,'nenga kwaa Kristo,'badala yake nabayite,'Nitumilwe nnonge yake.'
you yourselves testify to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am having been sent before Him;
29 Ywembe ywabile ni bibi arusi nga ngwana arusi. Nambeambe mbwiga wa ngwana arusi, ywayema ni kuyowa upulaiya muno kwa sababu ya lilobe lya ngwana arusi. Ayee nga puraha yango ya itimilike.
He who is having the bride is bridegroom, and the friend of the bridegroom, who is standing and hearing Him, rejoices with joy because of the voice of the bridegroom; this, then, my joy has been fulfilled.
30 Apalikwa yongeya, ni nenga nipalikwa pongwa.
It is necessary [for] Him to increase, and me to become less;
31 Ywembe ywaboka kunani, abile nnani ya yoti. Ywembe ywabile ba ulimwengu abaka mu'ulimwengu. Ywembe ywaboka kumaunde abile nnani ya goti.
He who is coming from above is above all; he who is from the earth, from the earth he is, and from the earth he speaks; He who is coming from Heaven is above all.
32 Ywembe ushuhudia galo agabweni ni kugayowa, lakini ntopo ywapokya ushuhuda bake.
And what He has seen and heard—this He testifies, and none receives His testimony;
33 Ywembe ywapokya ushuhuda bake atihakikisha kuwa Nnongo nga mkweli.
he who is receiving His testimony sealed that God is true;
34 Kwa mana yolo ywatumilwe ni Nnongo ulongela maneno ga Nnongo. kwa mana ampeya kwaa mu'kipimo.
for He whom God sent, He speaks the sayings of God; for God does not give the Spirit by measure;
35 Tate umpenda mwana ni kumpeya ilebe yoti mumaboko gake.
the Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand;
36 Ywembe ywaaminiye mwana abile ni ukoti wanga yomoka, lakini kwa ywembe ywa mweshimu kwaa mwana aubweni kwaa ukoti, ila ghadhabu ya Nnongo ubile nnani yake. (aiōnios g166)
he who is believing in the Son has continuous life; and he who is not believing the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” (aiōnios g166)
