Johan 5
1 He phoeiah Judah rhoek kah khotue om tih Jesuh tah Jerusalem la cet.
After these things there was the feast of the Jews, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Te vaengah Jerusalem kah tuthohka ah Bethesda tila Hebrew loh a khue tuibuem pakhat om tih impup panga om.
Now in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool called Bethesda, in Hebrew, which has five porches.
3 Te rhoek ah te aka yuii, aka khaem rhoek, mikdael rhoek neh aka tlotat rhoek loh rhaengpuei la yalh uh.
In them a large number of sick people were lying—blind, lame, paralyzed—waiting for the moving of the water;
4 Saivai ah puencawn ha pawk atah tuibuem a hinghuen sak. Tuibuem a hinghuen vaengah aka cungpung lamhma tah hoeih.
because an angel would go down from time to time into the pool and stir up the water—then the first one to get in after the stirring of the water became well of whatever disease that was holding him.
5 Te vaengah kum sawmthum kum rhet khuiah a tloh aka kaem hlang pakhat te tapkhoeh om.
Now there was a certain man there who had been sick for 38 years.
6 Jesuh loh aka yalh sut te a hmuh vaengah kum muep di coeng tila a ming. Te dongah anih te, “Sading la om na ngaih a?” a ti nah.
Seeing this man lying there and knowing that he had already been sick a long time, Jesus says to him, “Do you want to get well?”
7 Aka tlo loh Jesuh te, “Boeipa, tui a hinghuen vaengah tuibuem khuila kai aka tulh ham te hlang ka khueh moenih, ka caeh pangthuem khaw a tloe loh kai hmaiah cungpung coeng,” a ti nah.
The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to throw me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am coming another gets in before me.”
8 Jesuh loh anih te, “Thoo, na phakdoeng te kawt lamtah cet laeh,” a ti nah.
Jesus says to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk!”
9 Tekah hlang tah sading la pahoi a om dongah a phakdoeng te a koh tih pongpa. Tekah khohnin tah Sabbath la om.
Immediately the man became well and picked up his pallet and started to walk!
10 Te dongah aka hoeih tangtae te Judah rhoek loh, “Sabbath a om vaengah nang tah na phakdoeng te n'koh sak moenih,” a ti nauh.
But that day was a Sabbath, so the Jews said to the one who had been healed: “It's the Sabbath! You aren't allowed to carry the pallet.”
11 Te long khaw amih te a doo tih, “Kai sading la aka om sak loh kai taengah, ‘Namah kah phakdoeng te kawt lamtah cet laeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
He answered them: “The one who made me well—He said to me, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk.’”
12 Amah te, “Nang taengah, 'Kawt lamtah cet, ' aka ti te u hlang nim?” a ti nauh.
So they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk’?”
13 Tedae aka hoeih loh Jesuh te unim ti khaw a ming moenih. Tekah hmuen ah hlangping a om vaengah ni Jesuh tah pawlh a bit uh coeng.
But the man who was cured did not know who it was, because Jesus had disappeared, there being a crowd in the place.
14 Te phoeiah Jesuh loh anih te bawkim khuiah a hmuh tih, “Sading la na om coeng he. Tholh voel boeh saw. Khat khat loh nang taengah a thae la ha pai mahpawt nim,” a ti nah.
After these things Jesus found him in the temple and said to him: “See, you are well. Don't sin any more, so that something worse doesn't happen to you.”
15 Tekah hlang te cet tih amah sading la aka om sak te Jesuh ni tila Judah rhoek taengah puen.
The man went off and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 Hekah he Sabbath ah a saii dongah Judah rhoek loh Jesuh te a hnaemtaek uh.
So because of this the Jews began persecuting Jesus and trying to kill Him, because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te, “A pa loh tahae duela a saii dongah kai khaw ka saii,” a ti nah.
But Jesus answered them, “Until now, my Father works, I also work.”
18 Te vaengah Sabbath te a phae bueng kolla Pathen khaw a pa a ti tih Pathen te amah neh vanat la a khueh bal dongah Judah rhoek loh amah te ngawn ham taoe a mae uh.
So because of this they wanted to kill Him all the more, because He was not only breaking the Sabbath but was even saying that God was His own Father, making Himself equal with God!
19 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, pa loh a saii te a hmuh pawt atah capa loh amah lamkah a saii ham a coeng loeng loeng moenih. Te loh a saii te tah capa long khaw a saii van he.
Then Jesus answered and said to them: “Most assuredly I say to you, the Son is not able to do anything from Himself, except something He sees the Father doing; because whatever things He does, precisely these the Son also does.
20 Pa loh capa te a lungnah dongah amah loh a saii te a taengah boeih a tueng. Te lakah bibi tanglue te a taengah a tueng bal ni. Te daengah ni na ngai a hmang uh eh.
For the Father loves the Son and shows Him everything that He Himself is doing; and He will show Him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.
21 Pa loh aka duek rhoek te a thoh tih a hing sak bangla capa long khaw a ngaih te tah a hing sak van.
Now just as the Father raises the dead and gives life, just so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.
22 Pa loh pakhat khaw lai a tloek thil moenih. Tedae laitloeknah he capa taengah boeih a paek coeng.
In fact the Father does not judge anyone but has committed all the judging to the Son,
23 Te daengah ni pa a hinyah bangla capa te boeih a hinyah eh. Capa te aka hinyah pawt long tah anih aka tueih pa te hinyah pawh.
so that all will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
24 Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, kai ol a yaak tih ka tueih hlang te aka tangnah loh dungyan hingnah a khueh. Te dongah laitloeknah khuila kun pawh, dueknah lamloh hingnah khuila thoeih coeng. (aiōnios g166)
“Most assuredly I say to you that the one listening to my word and believing on Him who sent me has eternal life; he will not go into judging but has moved out of the death into the Life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, a tue ha pawk tih om coeng. Aka duek rhoek khaw Pathen capa kah ol te a hnatun tih aka ya rhoek tah hing uh ni.
“Most assuredly I say to you that a time is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of the God, and those who listen will live.
26 Pa loh a khuiah hingnah a khueh bangla capa long te khaw a khuiah hingnah khueh ham a paek van.
Because just as the Father has life in Himself, just so He gave to the Son also to have life in Himself;
27 Hlang capa la a om dongah laitloeknah saii ham saithainah khaw amah taengah a paek.
furthermore He gave Him the authority to pass judgment, because He is Son of Man.
28 A tue ha pawk coeng dongah phuel khuikah rhoek boeih loh a ol te a khuiah a yaak uh vetih ha moe uh ni.
Do not marvel at this, because a time is coming in which all those in the graves will hear His voice
29 He he ngaihmang sak uh boeh. A then aka saii rhoek tah hingnah dongkah thohkoepnah la, tedae a thae la kho aka boe rhoek tah laitloeknah kah thohkoepnah dongla pawk.
and will come out—those who did good things into the resurrection of life, but those who practiced evil things into the resurrection of condemnation.
30 Kai tah kamah lamkah loh bakhaw saii ham ka coeng moenih. Ka yaak bangla lai ka tloek dongah kai kah laitloeknah khaw a dueng la om. Kamah kongaih te ka toem pawt tih kai aka tueih kung kah kongaih te ka toem.
I am not able to do anything from myself. As I hear, I judge, and my judging is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the Father who sent me.
31 Kai loh kamah kawng ka phong koinih kai kah olphong te oltak om pawh.
“If I testify about myself, my testimony is not valid.
32 Kai kawng aka phong te hlang tloe om. Te dongah kai kawng a phong te aka thuem olphong ni tila ka ming.
There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony that He gives about me is true.
33 Nangmih loh Johan taengla na tueih uh vaengah oltak te a phong.
You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth.
34 Kai loh hlang taengkah olphong te ka doe moenih. Tedae nangmih khang ham he rhoek he ka thui.
Yet I do not accept the testimony from a man; but I say these things so that you may be saved.
35 Anih te tok tangtae hmaiim la om tih a vang hatah nangmih loh anih kah vangnah khuiah kohoe kolkalh ham na ngaih uh.
That man was a burning, shining lamp, and for a time you were willing to be glad in his light.
36 Tedae kai loh Johan lakah olphong tanglue ka khueh. Tekah bitat te coeng hamla pa loh kai taengah m'paek coeng. Tekah bibi ka saii dongah kai aka tueih a pa loh kai kawng te a phong.
But I have a greater testimony than John's, because the works that the Father gave me to complete—the very works that I am doing—they testify about me that the Father has sent me.
37 Kai aka tueih a pa loh kai kawng te a phong. A ol te na ya uh noek pawt tih a mueimae khaw na hmu uh noek pawh.
“Further, the Father who sent me has Himself testified about me. You have neither heard His voice nor seen His form at any time.
38 A ol te na khuiah na khueh uh pawt tih a naeh pawt dongah amah loh a tueih te khaw na tangnah uh pawh.
Nor do you have His word abiding in you, because you do not believe on the very one whom He sent.
39 A khuiah dungyan hingnah om ni tila na poek uh dongah cacim te na kheuh. Tedae te dongkah aka om rhoek loh kai kawng ni a phong uh. (aiōnios g166)
You examine the Scriptures because in them you think you have eternal life, yet they are the very ones that testify about me. (aiōnios g166)
40 Te phoeiah hingnah dang ham kai taengla na lo ngaih uh moenih.
But you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.
41 Hlang lamkah thangpomnah te ka doe moenih.
“I do not accept glory from people.
42 Tedae nangmih loh namamih khuiah Pathen kah lungnah na khueh uh pawt te ka ming.
Rather I have come to know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.
43 A pa kah ming neh kai ka pawk dae kai nan doe uh moenih. Hlang tloe te amah ming neh amah ngaih la ha pawk koinih anih te na doe uh suidae.
I have come in my Father's name and you do not receive me; should another come in his own name, him you will receive.
44 Nangmih loh metlam na tangnah uh thai eh. Khat khat lamkah thangpomnah te na doe uh vaengah Pathen bueng lamkah thangpomnah te na toem uh moenih.
How can you believe, who receive glory from men and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?
45 Pa taengah nangmih te kai loh m'paelnaeh ni tila poek uh boeh. Nangmih aka paelnaeh la Moses om, anih la na ngaiuep uh dae.
“Do not suppose that I will accuse you before the Father. Moses is the one who accuses you, on whom you have set your hope.
46 Moses te na tangnah uh koinih kai nan tangnah uh ni. Anih long khaw kai kawng ni a daek.
Because if you really believed Moses you would believe me, because he wrote about me.
47 Tedae anih kah cabu te na tangnah uh pawt atah metlamlae kai olka he na tangnah uh eh?” a ti nah.
But since you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my sayings?”
