Johan 7
1 Te phoeiah Jesuh tah Galilee ah vik pongpa. Amah te Judah rhoek loh ngawn ham a mae uh dongah Judea ah caeh ham ngaih pawh.
And Jesus was walking after these things in Galilee, for He did not wish to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him,
2 Tedae Judah rhoek kah dungtlung khotue om tom coeng.
and the celebration of the Jews was near—that of Shelters—
3 Te dongah a mana rhoek loh amah te, “He lamloh thoeih lamtah Judea la cet laeh, te daengah ni nang kah na saii bibi te na hnukbang rhoek loh a hmuh uh van eh.
His brothers, therefore, said to Him, “Depart from here, and go away to Judea, that Your disciples may also behold Your works that You do;
4 A huep la a saii vaengah amah te sayalhnah neh om ham aka tlap pakhat khaw a om moenih. He rhoek na saii mai vetih Diklai ah na phoe mai mako,” a ti nauh.
for no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be in public; if you do these things—reveal Yourself to the world”;
5 A manuca rhoek long khaw amah te a tangnah uh moenih.
for not even His brothers were believing in Him.
6 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Kai kah a tue tah ha pai hlan, dae nangmih kah a tue tah sikim la vawp vawp om.
Jesus, therefore, says to them, “My time is not yet present, but your time is always ready;
7 Diklai loh nangmih m'hmuhuet thai mahpawh, tedae kai tah a khoboe thae a khueh kawng te ka phong dongah m'hmuhuet.
the world is not able to hate you, but it hates Me, because I testify concerning it that its works are evil.
8 Nangmih tah khotue la cetuh. Kai tah hekah khotue la ka cet mahpawh, kai kah a tue tah soep hlan,” a ti nah.
You—go up to this celebration; I do not yet go up to this celebration, because My time has not yet been fulfilled”;
9 He rhoek he a thui phoeiah Jesuh tah Galilee ah vik naeh.
and saying these things to them, He remained in Galilee.
10 Tedae A mana rhoek tah khotue la a caeh uh phoeiah tah amah khaw koep cet. Tedae a huep la duem om tih loloh moe pawh.
And when His brothers went up, then also He Himself went up to the celebration, not openly, but as in secret;
11 Khotue vaengah Judah rhoek loh Jesuh te a toem uh tih, “Anih te melam a om?” a ti uh.
the Jews, therefore, were seeking Him in the celebration, and said, “Where is that One?”
12 Te dongah anih kawngte hlangping kohuetnah la muep om uh. A ngen loh, “Hlang then ni,” a ti uh. A tloe rhoek loh, “Pawh, hlangping te a rhaithi coeng,” a ti uh.
And there was much murmuring about Him among the multitudes, some indeed said, “He is good”; and others said, “No, but He leads the multitude astray”;
13 Tedae Judah rhoek a rhihnah dongah a kawng te sayalh la thui pawh.
no one, however, was speaking freely about Him, through fear of the Jews.
14 Tedae khotue bangli vaengah Jesuh te bawkim la cet tih a thuituen.
And it being now the middle of the celebration, Jesus went up to the temple, and He was teaching,
15 Te dongah Judah rhoek tah a ngaihmang uh tih, “He long he a cang muehla metlam ca a ming?” a ti uh.
and the Jews were wondering, saying, “How has this One known letters—having not learned?”
16 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Kai kah thuituennah tah kamah kah pawt tih kai aka tueih kah ni.
Jesus answered them and said, “My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me;
17 Khat khat loh a kongaih te saii ham a ngaih atah thuituennah he Pathen lamkah a? Kai kamah lamkah a ka thui? tite a ming ni.
if anyone may will to do His will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God, or—[if] I speak from Myself.
18 Amah lamkah aka thui loh amah thangpomnah te a toem. Tedae anih aka tueih kah thangpomnah aka toem long tah, a thuem la a om dongah anih ah boethae om pawh.
He who is speaking from himself seeks his own glory, but he who is seeking the glory of him who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him;
19 Moses loh nangmih te olkhueng m'paek moenih a? Tedae nangmih olkhueng aka vai pawt loh balae tih kai ngawn ham nan mae uh?” a ti nah.
has not Moses given you the Law? And none of you does the Law; why do you seek to kill Me?”
20 Hlangping long khaw, “Rhaithae na kaem, nang ngawn ham aka mae te unim,” a ti nah.
The multitude answered and said, “You have a demon, who seeks to kill You?”
21 Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Bibi pakhat ka saii hatah boeih na ngaihmang uh.
Jesus answered and said to them, “I did one work, and you all wonder,
22 Moses loh nangmih te yahvinrhetnah ham m'paek. Te te Moses kah moenih a pa rhoek kah ni. Te dongah Sabbath ah hlang kah yahvin na rhet uh.
because of this, Moses has given you the circumcision—not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers—and on a Sabbath you circumcise a man;
23 Yahvinrhetnah he hlang loh Sabath ah a dang vaengah Moses kah olkhueng te a phae pawt atah Sabath ah hlang pum pakhat sading la ka khueh dongah nim kai taengah na thin a toek uh?
if a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath that the Law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with Me that I made a man all whole on a Sabbath?
24 A hmanhu ah laitloek uh boeh. Tedae laitloeknah he a dueng la laitloek uh,” a ti nah.
Do not judge according to appearance, but the righteous judgment judge.”
25 Te dongah Jerusalem kah a ngen loh, “Ngawn ham a toem uh te anih pawt nim?
Certain, therefore, of the Jerusalemites said, “Is this not He whom they are seeking to kill?
26 sayalh la a thui dae amah tah a voek uh moenih ca he. Anih he Khrih ni tila boei rhoek loh rhep a ming uh nim?
And behold, He speaks freely, and they say nothing to Him; did the rulers truly know that this is the Christ?
27 Te dongah anih he me lamkah ha thoeng khaw m'ming. Tedae Khrih halo vaengkah tah me lamkah a thoeng khaw, a mingpha moenih,” a ti uh.
But this One—we have known where He is from; and the Christ, when He comes, no one knows where He is from.”
28 Te dongah Jesuh loh bawkim khuiah a thuituen vaengah pang tih, “Kai nan ming uh tih me lamkah ka thoeng khaw na minguh. Kamah lamkah ka lo moenih. Tedae kai aka tueih tah oltak ni. Anih te na ming uh moenih.
Jesus cried, therefore, in the temple, teaching and saying, “You have both known Me, and you have known from where I am; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you have not known;
29 Kai loh amah te ka ming. Amah taengah ka om tih te long te kai n'tueih,” a ti nah.
and I have known Him, because I am from Him, and He sent Me.”
30 Te dongah amah tuuk ham a mae uh dae a tue te a pai hlan dongah anih te kut hlah uh thil pawh.
They were seeking, therefore, to seize Him, and no one laid the hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come,
31 Tedae hlangping lamkah a yet loh amah te a tangnah tih, “Khrih ha lo vaengkah anih kah a saii lakah miknoek khaw muep saii mahpawt a?” a ti uh.
and many out of the multitude believed in Him and said, “The Christ—when He may come—will He do more signs than these that this One did?”
32 Anih kawng neh hlangping kah a kohuet te Pharisee rhoek loh a yaak uh. Te dongah anih tuuk ham tueihyoeih rhoek te khosoihham rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh a tueih uh.
The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers that they may take Him;
33 Te vaengah Jesuh loh, “Nangmih taengah a tue kolkalh ni ka om pueng vetih kai aka tueih taengla ka cet ni.
Jesus, therefore, said to them, “Yet a short time I am with you, and I go away to Him who sent Me;
34 Kai nan toem uh vaengah kamah nan hmu uh mahpawh. Te vaengah ka om nah khaw nam pha uh thai mahpawh,” a ti nah.
you will seek Me, and you will not find; and where I am, you are not able to come.”
35 Te dongah Judah rhoek loh amamih te, “He he mela caeh ham nim a cai tih mamih loh anih m'hmuh pawt eh? Greek kah canglak mupoe taengah cet la cai pawt nim? Greek rhoek te thuituen ham nim?
The Jews, therefore, said among themselves, “To where is this One about to go that we will not find Him? Is He about to go to the dispersion of the Greeks, and to teach the Greeks?
36 Kai he nan toem uh cakhaw kai na hmu uh mahpawh. Te dongah ka om nah khaw na pha uh thai pawh,’ a ti te mebang ol nim te,” a ti uh.
What is this word that He said, You will seek Me, and you will not find? And, Where I am, you are not able to come?”
37 Khotue tung kah hnukkhueng khohnin ah Jesuh te pai tih a pang doela, “Khat khat loh tui a hal atah kai taengah ha lo saeh lamtah o saeh.
And in the last, the great day of the celebration, Jesus stood and cried, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink;
38 Cacim loh a thui bangla, kai aka tangnah tah a bung khui lamkah tuiva te tui hing la long ni,” a ti.
he who is believing in Me, according as the Writing said, Rivers of living water will flow out of his belly”;
39 Tedae amah aka tangnah rhoek loh a dang ham Mueihla kawng te a thui. Jesuh a thangpom hlan dongah Mueihla tah ana pae hlan.
and this He said of the Spirit, which those believing in Him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
40 Te dongah hekah olka he hlangping lamkah a yaak uh, “Anih tah tonghma tangtang ni,” a ti uh.
Many, therefore, out of the multitude, having heard the word, said, “This is truly the Prophet”;
41 A ngen loh, “Anih he Khrih ni,” a ti uh. Tedae a ngen loh, “Galilee lamkah Khrih thoeng mahnim.
others said, “This is the Christ”; and others said, “Why, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Cacim loh, 'David tiingan lamkah neh David a om nah Bethlehem kho lamkah ni Khrih ha pawk eh?,’ a ti moenih a?” a ti uh.
Did the Writing not say that out of the seed of David, and from Beth-Lehem—the village where David was—the Christ comes?”
43 Tedae anih kongah hlangping te paekboenah om.
A division, therefore, arose among the multitude because of Him.
44 Amih khuikah a ngen loh amah te tuuk ham a ngaih uh. Tedae anih soah kut hlah uh pawh.
And certain of them were willing to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him;
45 Te vaengah tueihyoeih rhoek te khosoihham neh Pharisee rhoek taengla ha pawk uh. Te rhoek loh amih taengah, “Balae tih anih te nan khuen uh pawh?” a ti nahuh.
the officers came, therefore, to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why did you not bring Him?”
46 Tueihyoeih rhoek loh, “Hlang bangla cal pawh,” a ti nauh.
The officers answered, “Never so spoke man—as this Man.”
47 Te dongah Pharisee rhoek loh amih te, “Nangmih khaw n'rhaithi uh pawn pawt nim?
The Pharisees, therefore, answered them, “Have you also been led astray?
48 Boei rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek khuikah khat khat loh anih te tangnah pawt nim?
Did anyone out of the rulers believe in Him? Or out of the Pharisees?
49 Tedae hlangping loh olkhueng a ming pawt te rhunkhuen la poeh,” a ti uh.
But this multitude, that is not knowing the Law, is accursed.”
50 Amih taengah om tih hnukbuet ah Jesuh taengla aka pawk Nikodemu loh amih taengah,
Nicodemus says to them—he who came by night to Him—being one of them,
51 “A saii te amah lamloh lamhma la a yaak tih a ming pawt atah hlang te mamih kah olkhueng loh laitloek thil pawt maco?” a ti nah.
“Does our law judge the Man, if it may not hear from Him first, and know what He does?”
52 Te dongah anih te a doo uh tih, “Nang khaw Galilee lamkah pawt nim? Galilee lamkah tonghma a thoeng noek pawt te khe lamtah ming saw,” a ti nauh.
They answered and said to him, “Are you also out of Galilee? Search and see that a prophet has not risen out of Galilee”; [[
53 Te phoeiah amah im la rhip cet uh.
and each one went on to his house, but Jesus went on to the Mount of Olives.
