John 3
1 Ther was a man of the pharises named Nicodemus a ruler amonge ye Iewes.
Ọkùnrin kan sì wà nínú àwọn Farisi, tí a ń pè ní Nikodemu, ìjòyè kan láàrín àwọn Júù.
2 The same cam to Iesus by nyght and sayde vnto him: Rabbi we knowe that thou arte a teacher whiche arte come from God. For no man coulde do suche miracles as thou doest except God were with him.
Òun náà ní ó tọ Jesu wá ní òru, ó sì wí fún un pé, Rabbi, àwa mọ̀ pé olùkọ́ni láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wá ni ìwọ ń ṣe, nítorí pé kò sí ẹni tí ó lè ṣe iṣẹ́ àmì wọ̀nyí tí ìwọ ń ṣe, bí kò ṣe pé Ọlọ́run wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
3 Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto the: except a man be boren a newe he cannot se the kyngdom of God.
Jesu dáhùn ó sì wí fún un pé, “Lóòótọ́ lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún ọ, bí kò ṣe pé a tún ènìyàn bí, òun kò lè rí ìjọba Ọlọ́run.”
4 Nicodemus sayde vnto him: how can a man be boren when he is olde? can he enter into his moders wombe and be boren agayne?
Nikodemu wí fún un pé, a ó ti ṣe lè tún ènìyàn bí nígbà tí ó di àgbàlagbà tan? Ó ha lè wọ inú ìyá rẹ̀ lọ nígbà kejì, kí a sì bí i?
5 Iesus answered: verely verely I saye vnto the: except that a man be boren of water and of ye sprete he cannot enter into the kyngdome of god.
Jesu dáhùn wí pé, “Lóòótọ́ lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún ọ, bí kò ṣe pé a fi omi àti Ẹ̀mí bí ènìyàn, òun kò lè wọ ìjọba Ọlọ́run.
6 That which is boren of the flesshe is flesshe: and that which is boren of the sprete is sprete.
Èyí tí a bí nípa ti ara, ti ara ni; èyí tí a sì bí nípa ti Ẹ̀mí, ti Ẹ̀mí ni.
7 Marvayle not that I sayd to the ye must be boren a newe.
Kí ẹnu kí ó má ṣe yà ọ́, nítorí mo wí fún ọ pé, ‘A kò lè ṣe aláìtún yín bí.’
8 The wynde bloweth where he listeth and thou hearest his sounde: but canst not tell whence he cometh and whether he goeth. So is every man that is boren of the sprete.
Afẹ́fẹ́ ń fẹ́ sí ibi tí ó gbé wù ú, ìwọ sì ń gbọ́ ìró rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò mọ ibi tí ó gbé ti wá, àti ibi tí ó gbé ń lọ, gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni olúkúlùkù ẹni tí a bí nípa ti Ẹ̀mí.”
9 And Nicodemus answered and sayde vnto him: how can these thinges be?
Nikodemu dáhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Nǹkan wọ̀nyí yóò ti ṣe lè rí bẹ́ẹ̀?”
10 Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: arte thou a master in Israel and knowest not these thinges?
Jesu dáhùn, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ṣé olùkọ́ni ní Israẹli ni ìwọ ń ṣe, o kò sì mọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí?
11 Verely verely I saye vnto the we speake that we knowe and testify that we have sene: and ye receave not oure witnes.
Lóòótọ́ lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún ọ, Àwa ń sọ èyí tí àwa mọ̀, a sì ń jẹ́rìí èyí tí àwa ti rí; ẹ̀yin kò sì gba ẹ̀rí wa.
12 Yf when I tell you erthely thinges ye beleve not: how shuld ye beleve yf I shall tell you of hevenly thinges?
Bí mo bá sọ ohun ti ayé yìí fún yín, tí ẹ̀yin kò sì gbàgbọ́, ẹ̀yin ó ti ṣe gbàgbọ́ bí mo bá sọ ohun ti ọ̀run fún yín?
13 And no man ascendeth vp to heaven but he that came doune from heaven that is to saye the sonne of man which is in heaven.
Kò sì ṣí ẹni tí ó gòkè re ọ̀run bí kò ṣe ẹni tí ó ti ọ̀run sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, Ọmọ Ènìyàn tí ń bẹ ní ọ̀run.
14 And as Moses lifte vp the serpent in the wyldernes even so must the sonne of man be lifte vp
Bí Mose sì ti gbé ejò sókè ní aginjù, bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ ni a kò le ṣe aláìgbé Ọmọ Ènìyàn sókè pẹ̀lú.
Kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbà á gbọ́, kí ó má bà á ṣègbé, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó le ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun.” (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loveth the worlde yt he hath geven his only sonne that none that beleve in him shuld perisshe: but shuld have everlastinge lyfe. (aiōnios g166)
“Nítorí Ọlọ́run fẹ́ aráyé tó bẹ́ẹ̀ gẹ́ẹ́, tí ó fi ọmọ rẹ̀ kan ṣoṣo fún ni, kí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbà á gbọ́, má bà á ṣègbé, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó lè ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God sent not his sonne into the worlde to condepne the worlde: but that the worlde through him might be saved.
Nítorí Ọlọ́run kò rán ọmọ rẹ̀ sí ayé láti dá aráyé lẹ́jọ́; ṣùgbọ́n kí a le ti ipasẹ̀ rẹ̀ gba aráyé là.
18 He that beleveth on him shall not be condepned. But he that beleveth not is condempned all redy be cause he beleveth not in the name of the only sonne of God.
Ẹni tí ó bá gbà á gbọ́, a kò ní dá a lẹ́jọ́; ṣùgbọ́n a ti dá ẹni tí kò gbà á gbọ́ lẹ́jọ́ ná, nítorí tí kò gba orúkọ ọmọ kan ṣoṣo ti Ọlọ́run gbọ́.
19 And this is the condempnacion: that light is come into the worlde and the me loved darcknes more then light because their dedes were evill.
Èyí ni ìdájọ́ náà pé, ìmọ́lẹ̀ wá sí ayé, àwọn ènìyàn sì fẹ́ òkùnkùn ju ìmọ́lẹ̀ lọ, nítorí tí iṣẹ́ wọn burú.
20 For every man that evyll doeth hateth the light: nether commeth to light lest his dedes shuld be reproved.
Nítorí olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó bá hùwà búburú ní ìkórìíra ìmọ́lẹ̀, kì í sì í wá sí ìmọ́lẹ̀, kí a má ṣe bá iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ wí.
21 But he that doth truth commeth to the light that his dedes might be knowen how that they are wrought in God.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó bá ń sọ òtítọ́ ní í wá sí ìmọ́lẹ̀, kí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ kí ó lè fi ara hàn pé a ṣe wọ́n nípa ti Ọlọ́run.”
22 After these thinges cam Iesus and his disciples into the Iewes londe and ther he haunted with them and baptised.
Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, Jesu pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wá sí ilẹ̀ Judea; ó sì dúró pẹ̀lú wọn níbẹ̀ ó sì ń ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi fún ni.
23 And Iohn also baptised in Enon besydes Salim because ther was moche water there and they came and were baptised.
Johanu pẹ̀lú sì ń ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi ní Aenoni, ní agbègbè Salimu, nítorí tí omi púpọ̀ wà níbẹ̀, wọ́n sì ń wá, a sì ń tẹ̀ ẹ́ wọn bọ omi.
24 For Iohn was not yet cast into preson.
(Nítorí tí a kò tí ì sọ Johanu sínú túbú).
25 And ther arose a questio bitwene Iohns disciples and the Iewes about purifiynge.
Nígbà náà ni iyàn kan wà láàrín àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu àti Júù kan nípa ti ìwẹ̀nù.
26 And they came vnto Iohn and sayde vnto him: Rabbi he that was with the beyonde Iordan to whom thou barest witnes. Beholde the same baptyseth and all me come to him.
Wọ́n sì tọ Johanu wá, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Rabbi, ẹni tí ó ti wà pẹ̀lú rẹ lókè odò Jordani, tí ìwọ ti jẹ́rìí rẹ̀, wò ó, òun tẹ àwọn ènìyàn bọ omi, gbogbo ènìyàn sì ń tọ̀ ọ́ wá.”
27 Iohn answered and sayde: a man can receave no thinge at all except it be geve him fro heaven.
Johanu dáhùn ó sì wí pé, “Ènìyàn kò le rí nǹkan kan gbà, bí kò ṣe pé a bá ti fi fún ún láti ọ̀run wá.
28 Ye youre selves are witnesses how that I sayde: I am not Christ but am sent before him.
Ẹ̀yin fúnra yín jẹ́rìí mi pé mo wí pé, ‘Èmi kì í ṣe Kristi náà, ṣùgbọ́n pé a rán mi síwájú rẹ̀.’
29 He that hath the bryde is the brydegrome. But the frende of the brydegrome which stondeth by and heareth him reioyseth greately of the brydgromes voyce. Tis my ioye is fulfilled.
Ẹni tí ó bá ni ìyàwó ni ọkọ ìyàwó; ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀rẹ́ ọkọ ìyàwó tí ó dúró tí ó sì ń gbóhùn rẹ̀, ó ń yọ̀ gidigidi nítorí ohùn ọkọ ìyàwó; nítorí náà ayọ̀ mi yí di kíkún.
30 He must increace: and I muste decreace.
Òun kò lè ṣàì máa pọ̀ sí i, ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò lè ṣàìmá rẹlẹ̀.
31 He that commeth from an hye is above all: He that is of ye erth is of the erth and speaketh of the erth. He that cometh from heaven is above all
“Ẹni tí ó ti òkè wá ju gbogbo ènìyàn lọ; ẹni tí ó ti ayé wá ti ayé ni, a sì máa sọ ohun ti ayé. Ẹni tí ó ti ọ̀run wá ju gbogbo ènìyàn lọ.
32 and what he hath sene and hearde: that he testifieth: but no man receaveth his testimonye.
Ohun tí ó ti rí tí ó sì ti gbọ́ èyí náà sì ni òun ń jẹ́rìí rẹ̀; kò sì sí ẹni tí ó gba ẹ̀rí rẹ̀.
33 How be it he that hath receaved hys testimonye hath set to his seale that God is true.
Ẹni tí ó gba ẹ̀rí rẹ̀ fi èdìdì dì í pé, olóòtítọ́ ni Ọlọ́run.
34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the wordes of God. For God geveth not the sprete by measure.
Nítorí ẹni tí Ọlọ́run ti rán ń sọ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run: nítorí tí Ọlọ́run fi Ẹ̀mí fún un láìsí gbèdéke.
35 The father loveth the sonne and hath geven all thinges into his honde.
Baba fẹ́ Ọmọ, ó sì ti fi ohun gbogbo lé e lọ́wọ́.
36 He that beleveth on the sonne hath everlastynge lyfe: and he that beleveth not the sonne shall not se lyfe but the wrathe of God abydeth on him. (aiōnios g166)
Ẹni tí ó bá gba Ọmọ gbọ́, ó ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun, ẹni tí kò bá sì gba Ọmọ gbọ́, kì yóò rí ìyè, nítorí ìbínú Ọlọ́run ń bẹ lórí rẹ̀.” (aiōnios g166)
