Yooxanaa 1
1 Bilowgii waxaa jiray Ereyga, Ereyguna wuxuu la jiray Ilaah, Ereyguna wuxuu ahaa Ilaah.
In the beginning the Word was; and the Word was with God; and the Word was God.
2 Isagu Ilaah buu la jiray bilowgii.
He was in the beginning with God;
3 Wax walba waxaa laga sameeyey xaggiisa, oo wixii la sameeyey lama samayn isaga la'aantiis.
through him all things came into being, and nothing came into being apart from him.
4 Isaga waxaa ku jirtay nolol, noloshuna waxay ahayd nuurka dadka.
That which came into being in him was life; and the life was the light of humanity;
5 Nuurkuna wuxuu ka ifayaa gudcurka, gudcurkuna kama badin.
and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness never overpowered it.
6 Waxaa jiray nin xagga Ilaah laga soo diray, magiciisuna wuxuu ahaa Yooxanaa.
There appeared a man sent from God, whose name was John;
7 Isagu wuxuu u yimid markhaati furid, inuu u marag furo nuurka, inay dhammaan xaggiisa ka wada rumaystaan.
he came as a witness – to bear witness to the light so that through him everyone might believe.
8 Isagu nuurka ma uu ahayn, laakiin wuxuu u yimid inuu nuurka u marag furo.
He was not the light, but he came to bear witness to the light.
9 Kaasu wuxuu ahaa nuurka runta ah oo iftiimiya nin walba oo dunida yimaada.
That was the true light which enlightens everyone coming into the world.
10 Wuxuu ku jiray dunida, dunidana waxaa laga sameeyey xaggiisa, oo duniduna ma ay garanayn isaga.
He was in the world; and through him the world came into being – yet the world did not know him.
11 Wuxuu u yimid kuwiisii, kuwiisiina ma ay aqbalin isaga.
He came to his own – yet his own did not receive him.
12 Laakiin in alla intii aqbashay, wuxuu siiyey amar ay carruurtii Ilaah ku noqdaan, kuwaasu waa kuwii magiciisa rumaystay,
But to all who did receive him he gave power to become children of God – to those who believe in his name.
13 oo aan ka dhalan dhiigga, ama doonistii jidhka, ama dad doonistiis, laakiin waxay ka dhasheen Ilaah.
For not to natural conception, nor to human instincts, nor to human will did they owe the new life, but to God.
14 Ereyguna jidh buu noqday, oo waa ina dhex joogay, oo waxaannu aragnay ammaantiisii, taas oo ahayd ammaantii u ekayd tan Wiilka keliya ee Aabbaha, ee nimco iyo run ka buuxa.
And the Word became human, and lived among us, (We saw his glory – the glory of the Only Son sent from the Father), full of love and truth.
15 Yooxanaa waa u marag furay isaga, wuxuuna ku qayliyey oo yidhi, Kanu waa kii aan idhi, Kan iga daba imanayaa waa iga horreeyey, waayo, hortay buu jiray.
(John bears witness to him; he cried aloud – for it was he who spoke – ‘He who is coming after me is now before me, for he was ever first’);
16 Dhammaanteen waxaynu buuxnaantiisa ka helnay nimco ka nimco.
out of his fullness we have all received gift after gift of love;
17 Waayo, sharciga waxaa loo soo dhiibay Muuse, laakiinse nimcada iyo runtu waxay ku yimaadeen Ciise Masiix.
for the Law was given through Moses, love and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 Ninna ma arkin Ilaah marnaba, Wiilka keliya oo laabta Aabbaha ku jira kaasaa inoo sheegay.
No one has ever yet seen God; God the only Son, who is ever with the Father – he has revealed him.
19 Kanu waa maraggii Yooxanaa furay, markii Yuhuuddu Yeruusaalem uga soo direen wadaaddo iyo kuwo reer Laawi ah inay weyddiiyaan oo ku yidhaahdaan, Yaad tahay?
When the religious authorities in Jerusalem sent some Priests and Levites to ask John – ‘Who are you?’,
20 Isagu waa qirtay, mana uu inkirin, oo wuxuu qirtay oo yidhi, Anigu ma ihi Masiixa.
he told them clearly and simply, ‘I am not the Christ.’
21 Markaasay weyddiiyeen, Haddaba yaad tahay? Ma Eliyaas baad tahay? Wuxuuna yidhi, Ma ihi. Ma nebigii baad tahay? Wuxuuna ku jawaabay, Maya.
‘What then?’ they asked. ‘Are you Elijah?’ ‘No,’ he said, ‘I am not.’ ‘Are you “the prophet”?’ He answered, ‘No.’
22 Waxay haddaba ku yidhaahdeen, Yaad tahay? si aannu jawaab ugu celinno kuwii na soo diray. Yaad isku sheegaysaa?
‘Who then are you?’ they continued. ‘Tell us so that we have an answer to give to those who have sent us. What do you say about yourself?’
23 Wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ahay codka kan cidlada kaga qaylinaya, Jidka Rabbiga toosiya, siduu nebi Isayos u yidhi.
‘I,’ he answered, ‘am – “The voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness: make a straight road for the Lord”, as the prophet Isaiah said.’
24 Kuwa la soo diray waxay ka yimaadeen Farrisiinta.
These men had been sent from the Pharisees;
25 Markaasay weyddiiyeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaba maxaad dadka u baabtiistaa haddaanad ahayn Masiixa ama Eliyaas ama nebigii?
and their next question was, ‘Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ or Elijah or “the prophet”?’
26 Yooxanaa wuxuu ugu jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan dadka ku baabtiisaa biyo, laakiin dhexdiinna waxaa jooga mid aydnaan garanaynin
John’s answer was – ‘I baptize with water, but among you stands one whom you do not know;
27 oo ah kan iga daba imanaya, kan aanan istaahilin inaan yeelmaha kabtiisa furo.
he is coming after me, yet I am not worthy even to unfasten his sandal.’
28 Waxyaalahaasu waxay ka dhaceen Beytaniya taas oo ku taal Webi Urdun shishadiisa, oo ahayd meeshii Yooxanaa dadka ku baabtiisayay.
This happened at Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Maalintii labaad Yooxanaa wuxuu arkay Ciise oo ku soo socda, oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega Wanka Ilaah ee dembiga dunida qaadaya.
The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him, and exclaimed, ‘Here is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30 Kanu waa kii aan idhi, Waxaa iga daba imanaya nin iga horreeyey, waayo, hortay buu jiray.
I was talking about him when I said “After me there is coming a man who ranks ahead of me, because before I was born he already was.”
31 Anigu ma aan aqoonin isaga, laakiin inuu Israa'iil u soo muuqdo sidaa daraaddeed ayaan u imid anigoo dadka biyo ku baabtiisa.
I did not know who he was, but I have come baptizing with water to make him known to Israel.’
32 Yooxanaa waa marag furay isagoo leh, Waxaan arkay Ruuxa oo samada uga soo degaya sidii qoolley oo kale, wuuna dul joogsaday isagii.
John also said: ‘I saw the Spirit come down from heaven like a dove and rest on him.
33 Anigu ma aan aqoonin isaga, laakiin kii ii soo diray inaan dadka biyo ku baabtiiso, wuxuu igu yidhi, Kii aad ku aragtid Ruuxa oo ku soo degaya oo ku dul joogsanaya, kaasu waa kan dadka ku baabtiisa Ruuxa Quduuska ah.
I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, he said to me “He on whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him – he it is who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.”
34 Anigu waan arkay, waana u marag furay in kanu yahay Wiilka Ilaah.
This I have seen myself, and I have declared my belief that he is the Son of God.’
35 Mar kale maalintii dambe Yooxanaa waa taagnaa isaga iyo laba xertiisa ahayd.
The next day, when John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 Oo wuxuu arkay Ciise oo socda, markaasuu yidhi, Bal eega Wanka Ilaah.
he looked at Jesus as he passed and exclaimed, ‘There is the Lamb of God!’
37 Labadii xerta ahaydna way maqleen isagoo hadlaya, wayna raaceen Ciise.
The two disciples heard him say this, and followed Jesus.
38 Markaasaa Ciise soo jeestay, waana arkay iyagoo raacaya, kolkaasuu ku yidhi, Maxaad doonaysaan? Waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbi (waxaa lagu fasiraa Macallin), Xaggee baad deggan tahay?
But Jesus turned round, and saw them following. ‘What are you looking for?’ he asked. ‘Rabbi,’ they answered (or, as we should say, “Teacher”), ‘where are you staying?’
39 Wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaalaya oo arka, Markaasay yimaadeen oo arkeen meeshuu degganaa, wayna la joogeen maalintaas. Goortaas waxay ahayd abbaaraha saacaddii tobnaad.
‘Come, and you will see,’ he replied. So they went, and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him. It was then about four in the afternoon.
40 Mid ka mid ah labadii maqashay Yooxanaa oo raacday, wuxuu ahaa Andaros, Simoon Butros walaalkiis.
One of the two, who heard what John said and followed Jesus, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 Isagu wuxuu hortii doonay walaalkiis Simoon oo ku yidhi, Waannu helnay Masiixa (kan lagu fasiro Kiristooska).
He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, ‘We have found the Messiah!’ (a word which means “Christ,” or “Consecrated”.)
42 Markaasuu wuxuu u geeyey Ciise. Ciisena intuu eegay ayuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Adigu waxaad tahay Simoon ina Yoonis. Waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Keeyfas (oo fasirkiisu yahay Butros).
Then he brought him to Jesus. Looking straight at him, Jesus said, ‘You are Simon, the son of John; you will be called Cephas’ (which means “Peter,” or “Rock”).
43 Maalintii labaad wuxuu doonayay inuu Galili tago, oo wuxuu helay Filibos. Ciisena wuxuu ku yidhi, I soo raac.
The following day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. He found Philip, and said to him, ‘Follow me.’
44 Filibos wuxuu ahaa reer Beytsayda taas oo ah magaaladii Andaros iyo Butros.
Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
45 Markaasaa Filibos wuxuu doonay Nataana'el oo ku yidhi, Waxaannu helnay kii Muuse sharciga ku qoray wax isaga ku saabsan, oo nebiyadiina ay qoreen wax isaga ku saabsan, waana Ciisihii reer Naasared oo ah ina Yuusuf.
He found Nathanael and said to him, ‘We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and of whom the prophets also wrote – Jesus of Nazareth, Joseph’s son!’
46 Nataana'el wuxuu ku yidhi, Ma wax wanaagsan baa ka iman kara Naasared? Markaasaa Filibos wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaalay oo arag.
‘Can anything good come out of Nazareth?’ asked Nathanael. ‘Come and see,’ replied Philip.
47 Ciise wuxuu arkay Nataana'el oo ku soo socda, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, kanu waa mid reer Israa'iil oo run ah oo aan khiyaano lahayn.
When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said, ‘Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!’
48 Markaasaa Nataana'el wuxuu ku yidhi, Xaggee baad igu tiqiin? Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Intaan Filibos kuu yeedhin, markaad geedkii berdaha hoostiisa joogtay, ayaan ku arkay.
‘How do you know me?’ asked Nathanael. ‘Even before Philip called you,’ replied Jesus, ‘when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.’
49 Kolkaasaa Nataana'el u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Macallimow, waxaad tahay Wiilka Ilaah, oo waxaad tahay boqorkii Israa'iil.
‘Rabbi,’ Nathanael exclaimed, ‘you are the Son of God, you are king of Israel!’
50 Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Ma waxaad u rumaysatay odhaatinkii aan kugu idhi, Geedka berdaha hoostiisa ayaan kugu arkay? Waxaad arki doontaa wax waxyaalahaas ka waaweyn.
‘Do you believe in me,’ asked Jesus, ‘because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than those!
51 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Waxaad arki doontaan samadoo furan iyo malaa'igaha Ilaah oo kor u kacaya oo ku soo degaya Wiilka Aadanaha.
In truth I tell you,’ he added, ‘you will all see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.’
