John 1
1 In the beginning the Word was; and the Word was with God; and the Word was God.
Iesākumā bija Vārds, un Vārds bija pie Dieva, un Dievs bija Vārds.
2 He was in the beginning with God;
Tas bija iesākumā pie Dieva.
3 through him all things came into being, and nothing came into being apart from him.
Visas lietas ir darītas caur Viņu, un bez Viņa nekas nav darīts, kas ir darīts.
4 That which came into being in him was life; and the life was the light of humanity;
Iekš Viņa bija dzīvība, un tā dzīvība bija cilvēku gaišums.
5 and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness never overpowered it.
Un tas gaišums spīd tumsībā, un tumsība to nesaņēma.
6 There appeared a man sent from God, whose name was John;
Viens cilvēks bija no Dieva sūtīts, Jānis vārdā.
7 he came as a witness – to bear witness to the light so that through him everyone might believe.
Tas nāca liecības dēļ, ka dotu liecību par To Gaišumu, lai visi caur to ticētu.
8 He was not the light, but he came to bear witness to the light.
Viņš pats nebija tas gaišums, bet ka tas liecību dotu par To Gaišumu.
9 That was the true light which enlightens everyone coming into the world.
Tam patiesam Gaišumam, kas ikvienu cilvēku apgaismo, bija nākt pasaulē.
10 He was in the world; and through him the world came into being – yet the world did not know him.
Viņš bija pasaulē, un pasaule ir caur Viņu darīta; bet pasaule Viņu nepazina.
11 He came to his own – yet his own did not receive him.
Viņš nāca pie tiem savējiem, un šie Viņu neuzņēma.
12 But to all who did receive him he gave power to become children of God – to those who believe in his name.
Bet cik Viņu uzņēma, tiem Viņš deva vaļu, palikt par Dieva bērniem, tiem, kas tic uz Viņa Vārdu,
13 For not to natural conception, nor to human instincts, nor to human will did they owe the new life, but to God.
Kas ne no asinīm, nedz no miesas gribēšanas, nedz pēc kāda vīra prāta, bet kas no Dieva dzimuši.
14 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.
Un tas Vārds tapa miesa un dzīvoja mūsu starpā, pilns žēlastības un patiesības, un mēs redzējām Viņa godību, tādu godību, kā Tā vienpiedzimušā Dēla no Tā Tēva.
15 (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”);
Jānis dod liecību par Viņu un sauc sacīdams: “Šis bija Tas, par ko es sacīju: kas nāk pēc manis, Tas ir bijis priekš manis. Viņš bija pirmāk nekā es.”
16 out of his fullness we have all received gift after gift of love;
Un no Viņa pilnuma mēs visi esam dabūjuši žēlastību uz žēlastību.
17 for the Law was given through Moses, love and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Jo bauslība ir dota caur Mozu, žēlastība un patiesība ir notikusi caur Jēzu Kristu.
18 No one has ever yet seen God; God the only Son, who is ever with the Father – he has revealed him.
Dievu neviens nekad nav redzējis: tas vienpiedzimušais Dēls, Tēva klēpī būdams, Tas mums to ir stāstījis.
19 When the religious authorities in Jerusalem sent some Priests and Levites to ask John – “Who are you?”,
Un šī ir Jāņa liecība, kad tie Jūdi no Jeruzālemes priesterus un levitus sūtīja, lai tam jautā: “Kas tu esi?”
20 he told them clearly and simply, “I am not the Christ.”
Un viņš apliecināja un neliedzās, un apliecināja: “Es neesmu Kristus.”
21 “What then?” they asked. “Are you Elijah?” “No,” he said, “I am not.” “Are you ‘the prophet’?” He answered, “No.”
Un tie tam jautāja: “Kas tad? Vai tu esi Elija?” Un viņš saka: “Neesmu.” “Vai tu esi tas Pravietis?” Un viņš atbildēja: “Nē”.
22 “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?”
Tad tie uz viņu sacīja: “Kas tu esi? lai atbildam tiem, kas mūs sūtījuši; ko tu saki par sevi pašu?”
23 “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.”
Viņš sacīja: “Es esmu saucēja balss tuksnesī: sataisiet Tā Kunga ceļu, kā pravietis Jesaja sacījis.”
24 These men had been sent from the Pharisees;
Un tie izsūtītie bija no tiem farizejiem.
25 and their next question was, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ or Elijah or ‘the prophet’?”
Un tie viņam jautāja un uz viņu sacīja: “Kāpēc tad tu kristi, kad tu neesi Tas Kristus, nedz Elija, nedz tas Pravietis?”
26 John’s answer was – “I baptize with water, but among you stands one whom you do not know;
Jānis tiem atbildēja un sacīja: “Es kristīju ar ūdeni; bet Tas jūsu vidū iestājies, ko jūs nepazīstat;
27 he is coming after me, yet I am not worthy even to unfasten his sandal.”
Tas nāk pēc manis, un ir bijis priekš manis, Tam es neesmu cienīgs kurpju siksnas atraisīt.”
28 This happened at Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Tas notika Betanijā viņpus Jardānes upes, kur Jānis kristīja.
29 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!
Otrā dienā Jānis Jēzu ierauga nākam un saka: “Redzi, Tas Dieva Jērs, kas nes pasaules grēkus.
30 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.’
Šis ir Tas, par ko es esmu sacījis: pēc manis nāk vīrs, kas bijis priekš manis: jo Viņš bija pirmāk nekā es.
31 I did not know who he was, but I have come baptizing with water to make him known to Israel.”
Un es Viņu nepazinu: bet lai Viņš Israēlim taptu zināms, tāpēc es esmu nācis, kristīdams ar ūdeni.”
32 John also said: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven like a dove and rest on him.
Un Jānis deva liecību sacīdams: “Es redzēju to Garu nolaižamies no debess kā balodi un paliekam uz Viņa.
33 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.’
Un es Viņu nepazinu, bet kas mani sūtījis kristīt ar ūdeni, Tas uz mani sacīja: uz ko tu redzēsi to Garu nolaižamies un paliekam, šis ir Tas, kas kristī ar Svēto Garu.
34 This I have seen myself, and I have declared my belief that he is the Son of God.”
Un es esmu redzējis un liecību devis, ka šis ir Tas Dieva Dēls.”
35 The next day, when John was standing with two of his disciples,
Otrā dienā Jānis atkal stāvēja un divi no viņa mācekļiem,
36 he looked at Jesus as he passed and exclaimed, “There is the Lamb of God!”
Un ieraudzījis Jēzu staigājam, viņš saka: “Redzi, Tas Dieva Jērs!”
37 The two disciples heard him say this, and followed Jesus.
Un tie divi mācekļi viņu dzirdēja runājam un Jēzum gāja pakaļ.
38 But Jesus turned around, and saw them following. “What are you looking for?” he asked. “Rabbi,” they answered (or, as we should say, ‘Teacher’), “where are you staying?”
Un Jēzus atgriezdamies un tos redzējis pakaļ nākam, uz tiem saka: “Ko jūs meklējat?” Un tie uz Viņu sacīja: “Rabbi, (tas ir tulkots: mācītājs, ) kur Tu mājo?”
39 “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.
Viņš uz tiem saka: “Nāciet un redziet.” Tie nāca un redzēja, kur Viņš mājoja, un palika to dienu pie Viņa, un tas bija ap desmito stundu.
40 One of the two, who heard what John said and followed Jesus, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
Andrejs, Sīmaņa Pētera brālis, bija viens no tiem diviem, kas to no Jāņa bija dzirdējuši un Viņam gājuši pakaļ.
41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (a word which means ‘Christ,’ or ‘Consecrated’.)
Šis pirmais atrod savu brāli Sīmani un uz to saka: “Mēs to Mesiju esam atraduši (tas ir tulkots: Kristus).”
42 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’).
Un viņš to veda pie Jēzus. Un Jēzus to uzlūkoja un sacīja: “Tu esi Sīmanis, Jonas dēls, tu tapsi saukts Kefas, tas ir tulkots: Pēteris (akmens).”
43 The following day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. He found Philip, and said to him, “Follow me.”
Otrā dienā Jēzus gribēja iziet uz Galileju un atrod Filipu un uz to saka: “Nāc Man pakaļ.”
44 Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
Un Filips bija no Betsaidas, Andreja un Pētera pilsētas.
45 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!”
Filips atrod Natanaēli un uz to saka: “Par ko Mozus bauslībā rakstījis un tie pravieši, To mēs esam atraduši, Jēzu no Nacaretes, Jāzepa dēlu.”
46 “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” asked Nathanael. “Come and see,” replied Philip.
Un Natanaēls uz to sacīja: “Vai no Nacaretes var būt kāds labums?” Filips uz to saka: “Nāc un redzi!”
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!”
Jēzus redzēja Natanaēli nākam, un par to saka: “Redzi, patiesi viens Israēlietis, iekš kā viltības nav.”
48 “How do you know me?” asked Nathanael. “Even before Philip called you,” replied Jesus, “when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Natanaēls uz Viņu saka: “Kā Tu mani pazīsti?” Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Es tevi redzēju, pirms Filips tevi aicināja, kad tu biji apakš tā vīģes koka.”
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael exclaimed, “you are the Son of God, you are king of Israel!”
Natanaēls atbildēja un uz Viņu saka: “Rabbi, Tu esi Dieva Dēls, Tu esi Israēla Ķēniņš.”
50 “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!
Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Tādēļ tu tici, ka Es tev esmu sacījis: Es tevi redzēju apakš tā vīģes koka. Tu redzēsi lielākas lietas nekā tās.”
51 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.”
Un Viņš uz to saka: “Patiesi, patiesi, Es jums saku: no šī laika jūs redzēsiet debesis atvērtas un Dieva eņģeļus uzkāpjam un nokāpjam uz To Cilvēka Dēlu.”
