John 6
1 After this, Jesus crossed the Sea of Galilee – otherwise called the Lake of Tiberias.
Rehefa afaka izany, dia niala Jesosy ka lasa nita ny Ranomasin’ i Galilia, dia ny Ranomasin’ i Tiberiasy izany.
2 A great crowd of people, however, followed him, because they saw the signs of his mission in his work among those who were sick.
Ary nisy vahoaka betsaka nanaraka Azy noho ny nahitany ny famantarana izay efa nataony tamin’ ny marary.
3 Jesus went up the hill, and sat down there with his disciples.
Ary Jesosy niakatra tao an-tendrombohitra, dia nipetraka tao mbamin’ ny mpianany.
4 It was near the time of the Jewish Festival of the Passover.
Fa efa akaiky ny Paska, ilay andro firavoravoan’ ny Jiosy.
5 Looking up, and noticing that a great crowd was coming towards him, Jesus said to Philip, ‘Where are we to buy bread for these people to eat?’
Ary Jesosy nanopy ny masony ka nahita fa nisy vahoaka betsaka nanatona Azy, dia hoy Izy tamin’ i Filipo: Aiza no hividianantsika mofo hohanin’ ireo?
6 He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he meant to do.
Izany no nataony mba hizahany toetra azy; fa izy nahalala ihany izay efa hataony.
7 ‘Even if we spent a years’ wages on bread,’ answered Philip, ‘it would not be enough for each of them to have a little.’
Filipo namaly Azy hoe: Na dia mofo vidina denaria roan-jato aza tsy ampy azy rehetra hananany kely avy.
8 ‘There is a boy here,’ said Andrew, another of his disciples, Simon Peter’s brother,
Ny mpianany anankiray, dia Andrea, rahalahin’ i Simona Petera, nilaza taminy hoe:
9 ‘Who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what is that for so many?’
Misy zazalahy manana mofo vary hordea dimy sy hazandrano madinika roa, fa ho ampy inona moa izany amin’ izao olona betsaka izao?
10 ‘Make the people sit down,’ said Jesus. It was a grassy spot; so the people, who numbered about five thousand, sat down,
Fa hoy Jesosy: Asaovy mipetraka ny olona. Ary nisy ahitra be teo. Ka dia nipetraka ny lehilahy, tokony ho dimy arivo no isany.
11 and then Jesus took the loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, distributed them to those who were sitting down; and the same with the fish, giving the people as much as they wanted.
Dia nandray ny mofo Jesosy; ary rehefa nisaotra, dia nizara izany tamin’ izay nipetraka hihinana Izy; ary ny hazandrano koa araka izay nilainy.
12 When they were satisfied, Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Collect the broken pieces that are left, so that nothing may be wasted.’
Ary rehefa voky ny olona, dia hoy Jesosy tamin’ ny mpianany: Angony ny sisa tsy lany, mba tsy hisy ho very.
13 The disciples did so, and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves, which were left after all had eaten.
Dia nangoniny, ka nahafeno harona roa ambin’ ny folo ny sombintsombin’ ny mofo vary hordea dimy, izay ambiny tsy lanin’ ny nihinana.
14 When the people saw the signs which Jesus gave, they said, ‘This is certainly the prophet who was to come into the world.’
Ary hoy ireny olona ireny, rehefa nahita ny famantarana izay nataon’ i Jesosy: Ity tokoa no Ilay Mpaminany Izay ho tonga amin’ izao tontolo izao.
15 But Jesus, having discovered that they were intending to come and carry him off to make him king, went again up the hill, quite alone.
Ary rehefa fantatr’ i Jesosy fa efa ho avy ny olona haka Azy an-keriny hataony mpanjaka, dia niala ka lasa indray Izy irery nankany an-tendrombohitra.
16 When evening fell, his disciples went down to the sea,
Ary rehefa hariva ny andro, dia nidina ho any amin’ ny ranomasina ny mpianany.
17 and, getting into a boat, began to cross to Capernaum. By this time darkness had set in, and Jesus had not yet come back to them;
Ary niondrana an-tsambokely izy, dia nita ny ranomasina nankany Kapernaomy. Ary efa maizina ny andro tamin’ izay, nefa Jesosy tsy mbola tonga tany aminy.
18 the sea, too, was getting rough, for a strong wind was blowing.
Ary ny ranomasina nanonja, fa mafy ny fifofofofon’ ny rivotra.
19 When they had rowed three or four miles, they caught sight of him walking on the water and approaching the boat, and they were frightened.
Ary rehefa nivoy tokony ho dimy amby roa-polo na telo-polo stadio izy, dia nahita an’ i Jesosy nitsangantsangana eny ambonin’ ny ranomasina ka nanakaiky ny sambokely; dia natahotra izy.
20 But Jesus said to them, ‘It is I; do not be afraid!’
Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Izaho ihany; aza matahotra.
21 And after this they were glad to take him into the boat; and the boat at once arrived off the shore, for which they had been making.
Dia ta-handray Azy ho eo an-tsambokely izy; ary niaraka tamin’ izay ny sambokely dia tonga tamin’ ny tany izay nalehany.
22 The people who remained on the other side of the sea had seen that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not gone into it with his disciples, but that they had left without him.
Nony ampitson’ iny ny vahoaka izay nijanona teny am-pitan’ ny ranomasina dia nahita fa tsy nisy sambokely hafa teo afa-tsy iray ihany, ary Jesosy tsy mba niara-niondrana an-tsambokely tamin’ ny mpianany, fa ny mpianany ihany no nandeha,
23 Some boats, however, had come from Tiberias, from near the spot where they had eaten the bread after the Master had said the thanksgiving.
kanefa nisy sambokely hafa avy tany Tiberiasy tonga teo akaikin’ ilay tany nihinanany ny mofo, rehefa nisaotra ny Tompo, ―
24 So, on the next day, when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples either, they themselves got into the boats, and went to Capernaum to look for him.
koa nony hitan’ ny vahoaka fa tsy teo Jesosy, na ny mpianany, dia niondrana an-tsambokely izy ka nankany Kapernaomy hitady an’ i Jesosy.
25 And, when they found him on the other side of the sea, they said, ‘When did you get here, Rabbi?’
Ary rehefa nahita Azy teny am-pitan’ ny ranomasina izy, dia hoy izy taminy: Raby ô, oviana no tonga teto Hianao?
26 ‘In truth I tell you,’ answered Jesus, ‘it is not because of the signs which you saw that you are looking for me, but because you had the bread to eat and were satisfied.
Jesosy namaly azy hoe: Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Mitady Ahy ianareo, nefa tsy noho ny nahitanareo famantarana, fa noho ny nihinananareo ny mofo ka voky.
27 Work, not for the food that perishes, but for the food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you; for on him the Father – God himself – has set the seal of his approval.’ (aiōnios g166)
Aza miasa hahazo ny hanina mety ho levona, fa ny hanina izay maharitra ho fiainana mandrakizay, izay homen’ ny Zanak’ olona anareo; fa Izy no nasian’ Andriamanitra Ray tombo-kase. (aiōnios g166)
28 ‘How,’ they asked, ‘are we to do the work that God wants us to do?’
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Inona no hataonay mba hiasanay ny asan’ Andriamanitra?
29 ‘The work that God wants you to do,’ answered Jesus, ‘is to believe in him whom God sent as his messenger.’
Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no asan’ Andriamanitra, dia ny hinoanareo Izay nirahiny.
30 ‘What sign, then,’ they asked, ‘are you giving, which we may see, and so believe you? What is the work that you are doing?
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Inona ary no famantarana ataonao, mba ho hitanay ka hinoanay Anao? Inona moa no asa ataonao?
31 Our ancestors had the manna to eat in the desert; as scripture says – “He gave them bread from heaven to eat.”’
Ny razantsika nihinana ny mana tany an-efitra, araka ny voasoratra hoe: Mofo avy tany an-danitra no nomeny azy hohaniny.
32 ‘In truth I tell you,’ replied Jesus, ‘Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but my Father does give you the true bread from heaven;
Dia hoy Jesosy taminy: Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Tsy Mosesy no nanome anareo ny mofo avy tany an-danitra; fa ny Raiko no manome anareo ny tena mofo avy any an-danitra.
33 for the bread that God gives is that which comes down from heaven, and gives life to the world.’
Fa ny mofon’ Andriamanitra dia Ilay midìna avy any an-danitra ka manome fiainana ho an’ izao tontolo izao.
34 ‘Master,’ they exclaimed, ‘give us that bread always!’
Ary hoy ireo taminy: Tompo ô, omeo anay mandrakariva izany mofo izany.
35 ‘I am the life-giving bread,’ Jesus said to them, ‘whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never thirst again.
Hoy Jesosy taminy: Izaho no mofon’ aina; izay manatona Ahy tsy mba ho noana, ary izay mino Ahy tsy mba hangetaheta intsony.
36 But, as I have said already, you have seen me, and yet you do not believe in me.
Fa efa nolazaiko taminareo fa nahita Ahy ihany ianareo, nefa tsy mino.
37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me; and no one who comes to me will I ever turn away.
Izay rehetra omen’ ny Raiko Ahy no hanatona Ahy; ary izay manatona Ahy dia tsy mba holaviko mihitsy.
38 For I have come down from heaven, to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me;
Fa tsy nidina avy tany an-danitra Aho mba hanao ny sitrapoko, fa ny sitrapon’ izay naniraka Ahy.
39 and his will is this – that I should not lose one of all those whom he has given me, but should raise them up at the Last day.
Ary izao no sitrapon’ izay naniraka Ahy, dia ny tsy hamelako hisy very izay rehetra nomeny Ahy, fa hatsangako indray amin’ ny andro farany izy.
40 For it is the will of my Father that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have immortal life; and I myself will raise him up at the Last day.’ (aiōnios g166)
Fa izao no sitrapon’ ny Raiko, dia ny hahazoan’ izay rehetra mijery ny Zanaka ka mino Azy fiainana mandrakizay; ary Izaho hanangana azy amin’ ny andro farany. (aiōnios g166)
41 The people began murmuring against Jesus for saying – “I am the bread which came down from heaven.”
Dia nimonomonona tamin’ i Jesosy ny Jiosy, satria Izy nanao hoe: Izaho no mofo izay nidina avy tany an-danitra.
42 ‘Is not this Jesus, Joseph’s son,’ they asked, ‘whose father and mother we know? How is it that he now says that he has come down from heaven?’
Dia hoy ireo: Tsy Ilehio va no Jesosy, Zanak’ i Josefa, Izay fantatsika ny rainy aman-dreniny? Ahoana no dia anaovany ankehitriny hoe: ho nidina avy tany an-danitra?
43 ‘Do not murmur among yourselves,’ said Jesus in reply.
Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Aza mimonomonona ianareo.
44 ‘No one can come to me, unless the Father who sent me draws him to me; and I will raise him up at the Last day.
Tsy misy olona mahay manatona Ahy, raha tsy taomin’ ny Ray Izay naniraka Ahy; ary Izaho hanangana azy amin’ ny andro farany.
45 It is said in the prophets – “And they will all be taught by God.” Everyone who is taught by the Father and learns from him comes to me.
Voasoratra ao amin’ ny mpaminany hoe: Ary izy rehetra dia hampianarin’ Andriamanitra. Izay rehetra mandre ka mianatra amin’ ny Ray no manatona Ahy.
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except him who is from God – he has seen the Father.
Nefa tsy nisy nahita ny Ray, afa-tsy Izay avy amin’ Andriamanitra: Izy no nahita ny Ray.
Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Izay mino no manana fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
48 I am the life-giving bread.
Izaho no mofon’ aina.
49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, and yet died.
Ny razanareo nihinana ny mana tany an-efitra, nefa maty ihany.
50 The bread that comes down from heaven is such that whoever eats of it will never die.
Ity no mofo izay midìna avy any an-danitra, mba tsy ho faty izay mihinana azy.
51 I am the living bread that has come down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, they will live for ever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.’ (aiōn g165)
Izaho no mofo velona izay nidina avy tany an-danitra; raha misy mihinana ity mofo ity, dia ho velona mandrakizay izy; ary ny mofo izay homeko dia ny nofoko ho fiainan’ izao tontolo izao. (aiōn g165)
52 They began disputing with one another, ‘How is it possible for this man to give us his flesh to eat?’
Dia nifanditra ny Jiosy ka nanao hoe: Hataon’ ilehio ahoana re no fanome ny nofony hohanintsika?
53 ‘In truth I tell you,’ answered Jesus, ‘unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink his blood, you have not life within you.
Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Raha tsy mihinana ny nofon’ ny Zanak’ olona sy misotro ny ràny ianareo, dia tsy manana fiainana ao aminareo.
54 Everyone who takes my flesh for their food, and drinks my blood, has eternal life; and I will raise them up at the Last day. (aiōnios g166)
Izay mihinana ny nofoko sy misotro ny rako no manana fiainana mandrakizay; ary Izaho hanangana azy amin’ ny andro farany. (aiōnios g166)
55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood true drink.
Fa ny nofoko no tena fihinana, ary ny rako no tena fisotro.
56 Everyone who takes my flesh for their food, and drinks my blood, remains united to me, and I to them.
Izay mihinana ny nofoko sy misotro ny rako no mitoetra ao amiko, ary Izaho kosa ao aminy.
57 As the living Father sent me as his messenger, and as I live because the Father lives, so the person who takes me for their food will live because I live.
Ary tahaka ny nanirahan’ ny Ray velona Ahy, ary Izaho koa velona amin’ ny Ray, dia tahaka izany koa izay mihinana Ahy no ho velona amiko.
58 That is the bread which has come down from heaven – not such as your ancestors ate, and yet died; the person who takes this bread for their food will live for ever.’ (aiōn g165)
Ity no mofo izay nidina avy tany an-danitra; tsy tahaka ny razana izay nihinana, nefa maty ihany; fa izay mihinana ity mofo ity dia ho velona mandrakizay. (aiōn g165)
59 All this Jesus said in a synagogue, when he was teaching in Capernaum.
Izany teny izany no nolazainy tao amin’ ny synagoga, raha nampianatra tao Kapernaomy Izy.
60 On hearing it, many of his disciples said, ‘This is harsh doctrine! Who can bear to listen to it?’
Koa maro tamin’ ny mpianany, nony nandre, dia nanao hoe: Sarotra izany teny izany, iza no mahahaino izany?
61 But Jesus, aware that his disciples were murmuring about it, said to them,
Ary fantatr’ i Jesosy tao am-pony fa nimonomonona tamin’ izany ny mpianany, ka dia hoy Izy taminy: Mahatafintohina anareo va izay?
62 ‘Is this a hindrance to you? What, then, if you should see the Son of Man ascending where he was before?
Mainka raha mahita ny Zanak’ olona miakatra ho any amin’ izay nitoerany taloha ianareo.
63 It is the Spirit that gives life; human strength achieves nothing. In the teaching that I have been giving you there is Spirit and there is life.
Ny fanahy no mahavelona; ny nofo tsy mahasoa na inona na inona; ny teny izay nolazaiko taminareo dia fanahy sy fiainana.
64 Yet there are some of you who do not believe in me.’ For Jesus knew from the first who they were that did not believe in him, and who it was that would betray him;
Fa misy ny sasany aminareo izay tsy mino. Fa fantatr’ i Jesosy hatramin’ ny voalohany izay tsy nino sy izay hamadika Azy.
65 and he added, ‘This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless enabled by the Father.’
Ary hoy Izy: Izany no nilazako taminareo fa tsy misy olona mahay manatona Ahy, raha tsy nomen’ ny Ray azy izany.
66 After this many of his disciples drew back, and did not go about with him any longer.
Hatramin’ izany dia maro tamin’ ny mpianany no nihemotra ka tsy niara-nandeha taminy intsony.
67 So Jesus said to the Twelve, ‘Do you also wish to leave me?’
Dia hoy Jesosy tamin’ ny roa ambin’ ny folo lahy: Hianareo koa va mba te-hiala?
68 But Simon Peter answered, ‘Master, to whom would we go? Eternal life is in your teaching; (aiōnios g166)
Simona Petera namaly Azy hoe: Tompo ô, hankany amin’ iza moa izahay? Hianao no manana ny tenin’ ny fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
69 and we have learned to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.’
Ary izahay mino ka mahalala fa Hianao no Ilay Masin’ Andriamanitra.
70 ‘Didn’t I myself choose you to be the Twelve?’ replied Jesus, ‘and yet, even of you, one is playing the devil’s part.’
Jesosy namaly azy hoe: Tsy Izaho va no nifidy anareo roa ambin’ ny folo lahy, nefa ny anankiray aminareo aza dia devoly?
71 He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, who was about to betray him, though he was one of the Twelve.
Fa Izy nilaza an’ i Jodasy, zanak’ i Simona Iskariota; fa izy no ilay efa hamadika Azy, nefa isan’ ny roa ambin’ ny folo lahy.
