< John 1 >

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
दुनिया बणण तै पैहल्या वचन था, अर वचन परमेसवर कै गेल्या था, अर वचन परमेसवर था।
2 He was in the beginning with God.
यो वचन ए शरुआत तै परमेसवर कै गेल्या था।
3 All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
दुनिया की हरेक चीज उस्से कै जरिये बणी सै, अर उसके बिना किसे भी चीज की रचना न्ही होई।
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
वो जीवन का जरिया था, अर वो जीवन मानव जात्ति कै खात्तर चाँदणा था।
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
चाँदणा अन्धेरै म्ह चमकै सै, अर अन्धेरा उस ताहीं बुझा न्ही सक्या।
6 There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
परमेसवर कै ओड़ तै भेज्जा होया एक माणस आया, जिसका नाम यूहन्ना था।
7 He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
वो गवाही देण खात्तर आया के माणसां नै चाँदणे की गवाही देवै, के सारे माणस उसकै जरिये चाँदणे पै बिश्वास करै।
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
वो खुद तै वो चाँदणा कोनी था, पर माणसां नै उस्से चाँदणे की गवाही देण खात्तर आया था।
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
जो साच्चा चाँदणा था, हरेक माणस नै ज्ञान का चाँदणा देवै सै, वो धरती पै आण आळा था।
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
वो दुनिया म्ह था, अर दुनिया उसकै जरिये बणी, अर दुनिया के माणसां नै उस ताहीं न्ही पिच्छाण्या।
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
वो अपणे यहूदी माणसां कै धोरै आया अर उसके अपणे लोग्गां नै उस ताहीं कोन्या अपणाया।
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
पर जितन्या नै उस ताहीं अपणाया, उसनै उन ताहीं परमेसवर के ऊलाद होण कि हक दिया।
13 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
वे कुदरती तौर पै ना तो पूर्वजां तै, ना देह की मर्जी तै, ना माणसां की मर्जी तै, पर परमेसवर की मर्जी तै पैदा होए सै।
14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
अर वचन देह धारण करकै आया, अर अनुग्रह अर सच्चाई तै भरकै म्हारै बिचाळै रहण लाग्या, अर हमनै उसकी इसी महिमा देक्खी, जिसी पिता कै इकलौते बेट्टे की महिमा।
15 John testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
यूहन्ना नै उसकै बारै म्ह गवाही दी, अर रुक्का मारकै बोल्या, “यो वोए सै, जिसका मन्नै जिक्र करया के जो मेरै पाच्छै आण लागरया सै, वो मेरतै घणा महान् सै क्यूँके वो मेरतै पैहल्या था।”
16 For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
क्यूँके उसकी करुणा अर सच्चाई की भरपूरी म्ह तै हम सारया नै आशीष पै आशीष पाई।
17 For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
इस खात्तर के नियम-कायदे तो मूसा नबी तै मिले, पर अनुग्रह अर सच्चाई यीशु मसीह कै जरिये पोहची।
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
परमेसवर ताहीं किसे नै कदे कोन्या देख्या, पर परमेसवर के इकलौते बेट्टे नै, जो सदा परमपिता कै गैल सै, उस्से नै म्हारे ताहीं दिखाया।
19 And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
यूहन्ना की गवाही या सै, के जिब यहूदी अगुवां नै यरुशलेम तै याजकां अर लेवियाँ नै उसतै यो बुझ्झण नै भेज्या, के “तू कौण सै?”
20 And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Christ."
फेर उसनै नाट्या कोनी, पर मान लिया के “मै मसीह कोनी।”
21 And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
फेर उननै यूहन्ना तै बुझ्झया, “तो फेर तू कौण सै? के तू एलिय्याह नबी सै?” उसनै साफ-साफ कह दिया के, “मै मसीह कोनी।” “तो के तू वो नबी सै?” उसनै जवाब दिया, “ना।”
22 They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
फेर उननै यूहन्ना तै बुझ्झया, “फेर तू सै कौण? ताके हम अपणे भेजण आळा ताहीं जवाब देवां। तू अपणे बारै म्ह के कहवै सै?”
23 He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
वो बोल्या, “जिसा यशायाह नबी नै बोल्या सैः ‘मै जंगल-बियाबान म्ह एक रुक्का देवण आळे का वचन सूं, के थम प्रभु का रास्ता सीध्धा करो।’”
24 (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
वे फरीसियों के कान्ही तै भेज्जै होड़ थे।
25 And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
उननै उसतै यो सवाल बुझ्झया, “जै तू ना मसीह सै, अर ना एलिय्याह, अर ना वो नबी सै, तै फेर बपतिस्मा क्यांतै देवै सै?”
26 John answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
यूहन्ना नै उन ताहीं जवाब दिया, “मै तो थमनै पाणी तै बपतिस्मा देऊँ सूं, पर थारे बीच म्ह एक माणस खड्या सै जिसनै थम कोनी जाणदे।
27 He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
यानी मेरै पाच्छै आण आळा सै, जिसके जूत्याँ के फित्ते भी मै खोल्लण जोग्गा कोनी।”
28 These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
ये बात यरदन नदी तै परली ओड़ बैतनिय्याह गाम म्ह होई, जडै़ यूहन्ना माणसां ताहीं बपतिस्मा दिया करदा।
29 The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
दुसरे दिन यूहन्ना नै यीशु ताहीं अपणी ओड़ आन्दे देखकै बोल्या, “देक्खो, यो परमेसवर का मेम्‍ना सै जो दुनिया का पाप ठावै सै।
30 This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
यो वोए सै जिसकै बारै म्ह मन्नै कह्या था, एक माणस मेरै बाद आवै सै जो मेरतै महान् सै, ज्यातै वो मेरतै पैहल्या था।
31 I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
मै खुद तो उसनै कोनी पिच्छाणु था, पर इस्से खात्तर मै पाणी तै बपतिस्मा देन्दा होया आया, ताके इस्राएल के माणस उसनै जान ले।”
32 And John testified, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
अर यूहन्ना नै या गवाही दीः “मन्नै सुर्ग तै पवित्र आत्मा ताहीं कबूतर की तरियां अकास तै उतरदे अर उस ताहीं मसीह यीशु पै ठहरते देख्या सै।”
33 And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
मै तो उसनै पिच्छाणु कोनी था, पर जिसनै मेरै ताहीं पाणी तै बपतिस्मा देण कै खात्तर भेज्या, उस्से नै मेरै ताहीं कह्या, “जिसपै तू आत्मा नै उतरदे अर ठहरदे देक्खै, वोए पवित्र आत्मा तै बपतिस्मा देणिया सै।”
34 And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
“अर मन्नै देख्या, अर गवाही दी सै, के योए परमेसवर का बेट्टा सै।”
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
आगले दिन यूहन्ना अपणे दो चेल्यां कै गैल फेर ओड़ै खड़े थे,
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
अर उसनै यीशु ताहीं जो उसकै धोरै तै जाण लागरया था, उसकी ओड़ लखाकै बोल्या, “देक्खो, यो परमेसवर का मेम्‍ना सै।”
37 And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.
जिब्बे वे दोन्नु चेल्लें उसकी या बात सुणकै यीशु कै गैल हो लिए।
38 And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
यीशु नै मुड़कै उन ताहीं गैल आन्दे देख्या अर उनतै बोल्या, “थम के चाह्वो सो?” वे उसतै बोल्ले, “हे गुरु, तू कित्त रहवै सै?”
39 He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
यीशु उनतै बोल्या, “चाल्लों, तो देख लियो।” फेर उननै उसकै रहण की जगहां देक्खी, अर उस दिन उसकै गेल्या रहे। क्यूँके साँझ के करीब चार बजगे थे।
40 One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
उन दोनुआ म्ह तै, जो यूहन्ना की बात सुणकै यीशु कै गेल्या हो लिए थे, एक तो शमौन पतरस का भाई अन्द्रियास था।
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Christ).
उसनै पैहल्या अपणे सगे भाई शमौन तै मिलकै उसतै बोल्या, “हमनै ख्रिस्त यानी मसीह (परमेसवर का अभिषिक्त) मिलग्या।”
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas" (which is translated, Peter).
फेर अन्द्रियास शमौन नै यीशु कै धोरै ल्याया। यीशु नै उसकी ओड़ लखाकै कह्या, “तू यूहन्ना का बेट्टा शमौन सैः तू कैफा यानिके पतरस कुआवैगा।”
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me."
आगले दिन यीशु नै गलील परदेस जाण का इरादा करया। वो फिलिप्पुस तै मिल्या अर बोल्या, “मेरै पाच्छै हो ले।”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
फिलिप्पुस, अन्द्रियास अर पतरस के नगर बैतसैदा का रहणीया था।
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
फिलिप्पुस नतनएल तै मिल्या अर उसतै बोल्या, “जिसका जिक्र मूसा नबी नै नियम-कायदा म्ह अर नबियाँ नै करया सै, वो हमनै मिलग्या सै! वो यूसुफ का बेट्टा, यीशु नासरी सै।”
46 And Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
नतनएल नै उसतै बुझ्झया, “के कोए उत्तम चीज भी नासरत तै लिकड़ सकै सै?” फिलिप्पुस उसतै बोल्या, “चालकै देख ले।”
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
यीशु नै नतनएल ताहीं अपणी ओड़ आन्दे देखकै उसकै बारै म्ह कह्या, “देक्खो, यो साच्चए इस्राएली सैः इस म्ह कपट कोनी।”
48 Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
नतनएल नै उसतै बुझ्झया, “तू मन्नै किस तरियां जाणै सै?” यीशु नै उस ताहीं जवाब दिया, “इसतै पैहल्या के फिलिप्पुस नै तेरे ताहीं बुलाया, तो मन्नै तेरे ताहीं देख्या था जिब तू अंजीर कै दरखत तळै था।”
49 Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
नतनएल नै उस ताहीं जवाब दिया, “हे गुरु, तू परमेसवर का बेट्टा सै, तू इस्राएल का राजा सै।”
50 Jesus answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
यीशु नै उस ताहीं जवाब दिया, “मन्नै जो तेरे तै कह्या के मन्नै तेरे ताहीं अंजीर कै दरखत तळै देख्या, के तू इस्से बात पै बिश्वास करै सै? तू इसतै भी बड़े-बड़े काम देक्खैगा।”
51 And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
फेर उसनै कह्या, “मै तेरे तै सच-सच कहूँ सूं, के थम सुर्ग नै खुल्या होड़ अर परमेसवर के सुर्गदूत्तां ताहीं मुझ माणस कै बेट्टे कै खात्तर नीच्चै उतरदे अर उप्पर जान्दे होए देक्खोगे।”
