1 ନିକଦିମନାମା ଯିହୂଦୀଯାନାମ୍ ଅଧିପତିଃ ଫିରୂଶୀ କ୍ଷଣଦାଯାଂ
And there was a man of the Pharisees, his name Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;
2 ଯୀଶୌରଭ୍ୟର୍ଣମ୍ ଆୱ୍ରଜ୍ୟ ୱ୍ୟାହାର୍ଷୀତ୍, ହେ ଗୁରୋ ଭୱାନ୍ ଈଶ୍ୱରାଦ୍ ଆଗତ୍ ଏକ ଉପଦେଷ୍ଟା, ଏତଦ୍ ଅସ୍ମାଭିର୍ଜ୍ଞାଯତେ; ଯତୋ ଭୱତା ଯାନ୍ୟାଶ୍ଚର୍ୟ୍ୟକର୍ମ୍ମାଣି କ୍ରିଯନ୍ତେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱରସ୍ୟ ସାହାଯ୍ୟଂ ୱିନା କେନାପି ତତ୍ତତ୍କର୍ମ୍ମାଣି କର୍ତ୍ତୁଂ ନ ଶକ୍ୟନ୍ତେ|
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 ତଦା ଯୀଶୁରୁତ୍ତରଂ ଦତ୍ତୱାନ୍ ତୱାହଂ ଯଥାର୍ଥତରଂ ୱ୍ୟାହରାମି ପୁନର୍ଜନ୍ମନି ନ ସତି କୋପି ମାନୱ ଈଶ୍ୱରସ୍ୟ ରାଜ୍ୟଂ ଦ୍ରଷ୍ଟୁଂ ନ ଶକ୍ନୋତି|
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 ତତୋ ନିକଦୀମଃ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟୱୋଚତ୍ ମନୁଜୋ ୱୃଦ୍ଧୋ ଭୂତ୍ୱା କଥଂ ଜନିଷ୍ୟତେ? ସ କିଂ ପୁନ ର୍ମାତୃର୍ଜଠରଂ ପ୍ରୱିଶ୍ୟ ଜନିତୁଂ ଶକ୍ନୋତି?
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 ଯୀଶୁରୱାଦୀଦ୍ ଯଥାର୍ଥତରମ୍ ଅହଂ କଥଯାମି ମନୁଜେ ତୋଯାତ୍ମଭ୍ୟାଂ ପୁନ ର୍ନ ଜାତେ ସ ଈଶ୍ୱରସ୍ୟ ରାଜ୍ୟଂ ପ୍ରୱେଷ୍ଟୁଂ ନ ଶକ୍ନୋତି|
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 ମାଂସାଦ୍ ଯତ୍ ଜାଯତେ ତନ୍ ମାଂସମେୱ ତଥାତ୍ମନୋ ଯୋ ଜାଯତେ ସ ଆତ୍ମୈୱ|
that which has been born of the flesh is flesh, and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 ଯୁଷ୍ମାଭିଃ ପୁନ ର୍ଜନିତୱ୍ୟଂ ମମୈତସ୍ୟାଂ କଥାଯାମ୍ ଆଶ୍ଚର୍ୟଂ ମା ମଂସ୍ଥାଃ|
You may not wonder that I said to you, It is required for you to be born from above;

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 ତଦା ନିକଦୀମଃ ପୃଷ୍ଟୱାନ୍ ଏତତ୍ କଥଂ ଭୱିତୁଂ ଶକ୍ନୋତି?
Nicodemus answered and said to Him, “How are these things able to happen?”
10 ଯୀଶୁଃ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟକ୍ତୱାନ୍ ତ୍ୱମିସ୍ରାଯେଲୋ ଗୁରୁର୍ଭୂତ୍ୱାପି କିମେତାଂ କଥାଂ ନ ୱେତ୍ସି?
Jesus answered and said to him, “You are the teacher of Israel and you do not know these things?
11 ତୁଭ୍ୟଂ ଯଥାର୍ଥଂ କଥଯାମି, ୱଯଂ ଯଦ୍ ୱିଦ୍ମସ୍ତଦ୍ ୱଚ୍ମଃ ଯଂଚ୍ଚ ପଶ୍ୟାମସ୍ତସ୍ୟୈୱ ସାକ୍ଷ୍ୟଂ ଦଦ୍ମଃ କିନ୍ତୁ ଯୁଷ୍ମାଭିରସ୍ମାକଂ ସାକ୍ଷିତ୍ୱଂ ନ ଗୃହ୍ୟତେ|
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 ଏତସ୍ୟ ସଂସାରସ୍ୟ କଥାଯାଂ କଥିତାଯାଂ ଯଦି ଯୂଯଂ ନ ୱିଶ୍ୱସିଥ ତର୍ହି ସ୍ୱର୍ଗୀଯାଯାଂ କଥାଯାଂ କଥଂ ୱିଶ୍ୱସିଷ୍ୟଥ?
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 ଯଃ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗେଽସ୍ତି ଯଂ ଚ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗାଦ୍ ଅୱାରୋହତ୍ ତଂ ମାନୱତନଯଂ ୱିନା କୋପି ସ୍ୱର୍ଗଂ ନାରୋହତ୍|
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 ଅପରଞ୍ଚ ମୂସା ଯଥା ପ୍ରାନ୍ତରେ ସର୍ପଂ ପ୍ରୋତ୍ଥାପିତୱାନ୍ ମନୁଷ୍ୟପୁତ୍ରୋଽପି ତଥୈୱୋତ୍ଥାପିତୱ୍ୟଃ;
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so it is necessary for the Son of Man to be lifted up,
15 ତସ୍ମାଦ୍ ଯଃ କଶ୍ଚିତ୍ ତସ୍ମିନ୍ ୱିଶ୍ୱସିଷ୍ୟତି ସୋଽୱିନାଶ୍ୟଃ ସନ୍ ଅନନ୍ତାଯୁଃ ପ୍ରାପ୍ସ୍ୟତି| (aiōnios g166)
that everyone who is believing in Him may not perish, but may have continuous life, (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 ଈଶ୍ୱରୋ ଜଗତୋ ଲୋକାନ୍ ଦଣ୍ଡଯିତୁଂ ସ୍ୱପୁତ୍ରଂ ନ ପ୍ରେଷ୍ୟ ତାନ୍ ପରିତ୍ରାତୁଂ ପ୍ରେଷିତୱାନ୍|
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;

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 ଜଗତୋ ମଧ୍ୟେ ଜ୍ୟୋତିଃ ପ୍ରାକାଶତ କିନ୍ତୁ ମନୁଷ୍ୟାଣାଂ କର୍ମ୍ମଣାଂ ଦୃଷ୍ଟତ୍ୱାତ୍ ତେ ଜ୍ୟୋତିଷୋପି ତିମିରେ ପ୍ରୀଯନ୍ତେ ଏତଦେୱ ଦଣ୍ଡସ୍ୟ କାରଣାଂ ଭୱତି|
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 ଯଃ କୁକର୍ମ୍ମ କରୋତି ତସ୍ୟାଚାରସ୍ୟ ଦୃଷ୍ଟତ୍ୱାତ୍ ସ ଜ୍ୟୋତିରୄତୀଯିତ୍ୱା ତନ୍ନିକଟଂ ନାଯାତି;
for everyone who is doing wicked things hates the light, and does not come into the light, that his works may not be detected;

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.”

After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He tarried with them, and was immersing;
23 ତଦା ଶାଲମ୍ ନଗରସ୍ୟ ସମୀପସ୍ଥାଯିନି ଐନନ୍ ଗ୍ରାମେ ବହୁତରତୋଯସ୍ଥିତେସ୍ତତ୍ର ଯୋହନ୍ ଅମଜ୍ଜଯତ୍ ତଥା ଚ ଲୋକା ଆଗତ୍ୟ ତେନ ମଜ୍ଜିତା ଅଭୱନ୍|
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 ତଦା ଯୋହନ୍ କାରାଯାଂ ନ ବଦ୍ଧଃ|
for John was not yet cast into the prison—

there arose then a question from the disciples of John with [some] Jews about purifying,

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.”

John answered and said, “A man is not able to receive anything if it may not have been given him from Heaven;

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.
