< John 7 >

1 After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
Hangi ze yakilaa a makani aya uYesu ai utungile muhinzo iti mu Galilaya, ku nsoko shanga ai uloilwe kulongola ku Uyahudi ku nsoko i Ayahudi i atulaa akuzipya masigo a kumubulaga.
2 Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.
Itungili i siku kuu a Ayahudi na itala, ai atulaa pakupi.
3 His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.
Uugwa i aluna akwe nai amutambuie, “Hega i kianza iki ulongole ku Uyahudi, iti kina amanyisigwa ni ako uu uuu ihenge intendo nukituma.
4 For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”
Kutili nuitumaa lihi ku kinkunku anga itule ung'wenso mukola uloilwe ku kumuka ng'walyi. Anga itule ukituma imakani aya, igeeleke mukola ku anya unkumbigulu.”
5 For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.
Ga ni aluna akwe shanga ai amuhuiie.
6 Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
Uugwa uYesu ai uatambuiie, “Itungo ni lane likili kupikiila, kuiti itungo nilanyu nkua yihi likoli likondile.
7 The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
Unkumbigulu shanga uhumile kumubipilwa u nyenye, ila umbipiwe unene ku nsoko ku ukuiila kina intendo ni akwe ingi ubii.
8 You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”
Nankili kulongola ku siku kuu; u nene shanga ninzu ku siku kuu iyi ku nsoko itungo ni lane likili likondaniile.”
9 Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.
Ze yakilaa kulingitya imakani nanso kitalao, ai usigile ku Galilaya.
10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
Ga ni iti, aluna akwe nai atulaa alongolaa ku siku kuu, uugwa nu ng'wenso akalongola, shanga ku kihenga ila ku kinkunku.
11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”
Ayahudi ai atulaa aku muduma mu siku kuu nu kuligitya, “Ukoli pii?”
12 There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”
Ai ukoli nu witambulyi widu mu kati a anyianza migulya akwe. I auya ai aligitilye, “Ingi muntu mukende,” I auya ai aligitilye, 'Ishi, wialimilya i anyianza,”
13 Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
Ga ni iti kutili nai utambue kihenga migulya akwe aze uogopile i Ayahudi.
14 But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
Itungo i siku kuu nai apikiila pakati, Uyesu ai unankie kulongola mi Itekeelo nu kandya kumanyisa.
15 The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”
iAyahudi ai atulaa akukuilwa nu kuligitya, “ku kinya uli u muntu uyu ulingile i makani idu? Shanga wimanyisilye nangaluu,”
16 Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.
uYesu aka asukiilya nu kuatambuila, '“Umanyisa nuane shanga wane, ila ingi wakwe ng'wenso nai undagiiye.
17 If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.
Anga itule wihi ukulowa kituma u ulowa nuakwe u ng'wenso, ukulinga kutula umanyisigwa uwu, anga ize apumiie kung'wa Itunda, ang'wi anga itule kutambula kupuma kitalane mukola.
18 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
Kila nuitambulaa napumiie kitalakwe mukola widumaa ikulyo ni lakwe, ila kila nuidumaa ikulyo ni lakwe nuanso nai umulagiiye, muntu nuanso ingi munya tai, nu mukati akwe kutili kuhita kituma itai ane.
19 Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”
uMusa shanga ai uminkiiye unyenye ilagiilyo? Kuiti kutili ga nung'wi mi italanyu nuitumaa ilagiilyo. Ku niki muloilwe kumbulagaa?
20 The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”
i Anyianza akasukiilya, “Ukete hing'wi. Nyenyu uloilwe ku ubulagaa?”
21 Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.
uYesu akasukiilya nu kuaila, “Nitumile mulimo ung'wi, nu nyenye mihi makuilwa ku nsoko akwe.
22 Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.
uMusa ai uminkiiye iganda (shanga kina lipumiie kung'wa Musa, ila nilanso lipumiie kua tata), nu mu luhiku nula kusupya mi mutwalaa kiganda muntu.
23 If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?
Anga itule uku singiilya iganda mu Luhiku nula kusupya iti kina ilagiilyo ni lang'wa Musa lileke kubunangwa, ku niki mukuntakiila unene ku nsoko numitumile u muntu kutula mupanga lukulu mu Luhiku nula kusupya?
24 Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
Leki kulamuli kuniganiila nu wigeeleki, ila lamuli ku tai ane.
25 Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?
Ang'wi ao kupuma ku Yerusalemu akaligitya, “Shanga yuyu niakuduma kumubulaga?
26 Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?
Hangi goza, ukutambula i kihenga, hangi shanga akuligitya kihi migulya akwe. Shanga ihumile itule kina i atongeeli alingile itai kina u muntu uyu ingi Kristo, ihumilene itule?
27 However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
Kulingile uyu muntu upembeeye pii. uKristo nuikiza, ga ni iti, kutili nuikalinga pii nuikapuma.”
28 Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.
uYesu ai watulaa ukitunta ululi nulakwe mi Itekeelo, aze manyisa nu kuligitya, “Unyenye mihi muningile unene hangi mulingile ku mpembeeye. Shanga ai nzile ku umi nuane, ila ng'wenso nai undagiiye ingi wa tai, hangi shanga mu mulingile u ng'wenso.
29 I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”
Nu mulingile u ng'wenso ku nsoko mpembeeye kitalakwe hangi ai undagiiye.”
30 They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
Ai atulaa akugema kumuamba, kuiti kutili ga nung'wi nai unyansue u mukono nu akwe migulya akwe ku nsoko i saa akwe ai ikili kupika.
31 But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”
Ga ni iti, idu mu anyianza ai amuhuiie. Akaligitya, “uKristo nuikiza, ukituma ilingasiilyo idu kukila nuitumile u muntu uyu?”
32 The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
iAfarisayo ai aigulye i anyianza akipwepweela i makani aya kutula u Yesu, ni akulu a Akuhani ni Afarisayo akalagiilya ia afisa iti kumuamba.
33 Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
Uugwa uYesu nai uligitilye, Ikili likoli itungo ikupi nkoli palung'wi nu nyenye, Ni panyambele nikalongola kung'waakwe ng'wenso nai undagiiye.
34 You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”
Mukunduma ni iti shanga mukunihenga, uko ninongoe, shanga muhumile kuza.”
35 The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?
Ku lulo iAyahudi akitambulya enso ku enso, “uMuntu uyu ukulongola pii kina kuleke kuhuma kumihenga? Ukulongola ku nia sapatiee mu Ayunani nu kuamanyisa i Ayunani?
36 What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”
Ingi ikani kii ili nuli ligitilye. 'Mukunduma shanga mukunihenga; uko ninongoe shanga muhumile kupembya'?”
37 Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
Itungili mu luhiku nula mpelo, luhiku nu lukulu nula siku kuu, uYesu ai wimikile nu kitunta ku luli, azeligitya, “Aga itule wihi ukete nyota, nu aze kitalane wang'we.
38 He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water.”
Nuanso nu ni huiie unene anga u ukilisigwa nu uligitilye, kupuma mukati akwe ikuhuma imyongo a mazi a upanga.”
39 But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
Kuiti ai umaligitilye aya kutula Ng'wau Ng'welu, naiiza i enso ni amu huiie akumusingiilya; Ng'wau Ng'welu ai watulaa wakili kupumigwa ku nsoko uYesu ai watulaa wakili ku kuligwa.
40 Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is truly the prophet.”
Ang'wi a anyianza, nai akija imakani aya, ai aligitilye, “Tai uyu ingi munyakidagu.”
41 Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
i Auya ai aligitilye, “Uyu ingi Kristo,” Kuiti i auya ai aliditilye, “ntuni, uKristo uhumile kupuma ku Galilaya?
42 Hasn’t the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”
U ukilisigwa shanga uligitilye kina uKristo ukupumiila mu ndugu ang'wa Daudi nu kupuma ku Bethlehemu, kijiji naiza uDaudi ai ukoli?
43 So a division arose in the multitude because of him.
Iti gwa, pang'wanso ukamyansuka utemanuki mu kati a anyianza ku nsoko akwe.
44 Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.
i Auya mukati ao ai azee muamba, kuiti kutili nai ugooe u mukono migulya akwe.
45 The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”
Iti gwa awo i a ofisa akasuka ku akulu nia Akuhani ni Afarisayo, ni enso aka atambuila, “ku niki shanga mamuleta?”
46 The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
iAofisa akasukiilya, “Kutili u muntu nai wakaiye kuligitya anga uyu ze ikili.”
47 The Pharisees therefore answered them, “You aren’t also led astray, are you?
Papo i Afarisayo nai aka asukiilya, “Nu nyenye ga malimiligwa?
48 Have any of the rulers or any of the Pharisees believed in him?
Ukoli wihi mu kati a atemi numuhuiie, ang'wi wihi mu Afarisayo?
49 But this multitude that doesn’t know the law is cursed.”
Ila awa i anyianza ni shanga alingile ilagiilyo - azumilwe.”
50 Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them,
uNikodemu aka atambuila (nuanso ai umuhangile uYesu i kali, aze ung'wi nua Afarisayo).
51 “Does our law judge a man unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”
“Itii ilagiilyo litu likumulamula umuntu kwaala utegeeigwe hanza nu kulinga nukituma?”
52 They answered him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee.”
Ai asukiiye nu kumutambuila, “Nu ewe ga upembeeye ku Galilaya? Duma hangi wihenge kutili u munyakidagu nupembeeye ku Galilaya.”
53 Everyone went to his own house,
Hangi kila u muntu ai ulongoe kitalakwe.
