Johannes 1
1 Alguses oli Sõna juba olemas. Sõna oli Jumala juures ja Sõna oli Jumal.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Alguses oli ta Jumala juures.
This man was in the beginning with God.
3 Kõik on tekkinud tema kaudu; ilma temata ei ole tekkinud midagi.
All things came to be through him, and apart from him not even one thing came to be that has come to be.
4 Temas oli elu, see elu, mis on kõigi valgus.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 Valgus paistab pimedusse ja pimedus ei ole seda kustutanud.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6 Jumal saatis mehe nimega Johannes.
A man came to be who was sent from God, his name was John.
7 Ta tuli tunnistajana selgitama valgust, et kõik võiksid tema kaudu uskuda.
This man came for testimony so that he might testify about the light, so that all might believe through him.
8 Tema ise ei olnud valgus, vaid ta tuli valgusest tunnistama.
That man was not the light, but that he might testify about the light.
9 Tõeline valgus oli tulemas maailma, et valgustada kõiki.
He was the true light coming into the world that enlightens every man.
10 Ta oli maailmas, ja kuigi maailm oli tehtud tema kaudu, ei tundud maailm, kes ta on.
He was in the world, and the world came to be through him, and the world knew him not.
11 Ta tuli omade juurde, kuid nad ei võtnud teda omaks.
He came to his own, and his own did not accept him.
12 Kuid kõigile neile, kes ta vastu võtsid ja temasse uskusid, andis ta õiguse saada Jumala lapseks.
But as many as did accept him, to them he gave power to become children of God, to those who believe in his name,
13 Need lapsed ei ole sündinud tavalisel moel, mitte inimese soovi või isa otsuse tulemusena, vaid nad on sündinud Jumalast.
who were begotten, not from blood, nor from a will of flesh, nor from a will of man, but from God.
14 Sõna sai inimeseks ja elas meie keskel ning me nägime tema au, Isa ühe ja ainsa Poja au, täis armu ja tõde.
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us. And we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Johannes tunnistas temast, hüüdes rahvale: „See on tema, kellest ma teile rääkisin, kui ütlesin: „See, kes tuleb pärast mind, on minust tähtsam, sest tema oli olemas juba enne mind.““
John testified about him, and cried out, saying, This was he of whom I said, He who comes after me came to be before me, because he was before me.
16 Me kõik oleme saanud osa tema heldusest, ühe armulise kingi teise järel.
And from his fullness we all received, even grace for grace.
17 Seadus anti Moosese kaudu; arm ja tõde tulid Jeesuse Kristuse kaudu.
Because the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth came to be through Jesus Christ.
18 Kuigi keegi ei ole eales Jumalat näinud, on üks ja ainus Jumal, kes on Isa lähedal, näidanud meile, missugune on Jumal.
No man has ever seen God. The only begotten Son, being in the bosom of the Father, that man reported him.
19 Seda teatas Johannes avalikult, kui juudi juhid saatsid Jeruusalemmast preestreid ja leviite temalt küsima: „Kes sa oled?“
And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent forth priests and Levites from Jerusalem so that they might ask him, Who are thou?
20 Johannes kuulutas lihtsalt ja selgelt, ilma kõhklemata: „Ma ei ole Messias.“
And he confessed, and did not deny, and confessed, I am not the Christ.
21 „Kes sa siis oled?“küsisid nad. „Kas Eelija?“„Ei, ei ole, “vastas ta. „Kas sa oled see prohvet?“„Ei, “kostis ta.
And they asked him, What therefore, are thou Elijah? And he says, I am not. Are thou the prophet? And he answered, No.
22 „Kes sa siis oled?“küsisid nad. „Me peame andma vastuse neile, kes meid saatsid. Mida sa enda kohta ütled?“
They said therefore to him, Who are thou, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do thou say about thyself?
23 „Ma olen hääl, mis hüüab kõrbes: „Tehke Issanda tee sirgeks!““ütles ta prohvet Jesaja sõnu kasutades.
He said, I am the voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, just as the prophet Isaiah said.
24 Variseride saadetud preestrid ja leviidid
And those who were sent were from the Pharisees.
25 küsisid talt: „Miks sa siis ristid, kui sa ei ole Messias, Eelija ega see prohvet?“
And they asked him, and said to him, Why therefore do thou immerse if thou are not the Christ nor Elijah nor the prophet?
26 Johannes vastas: „Mina ristin veega, kuid teie keskel seisab see, keda te ei tunne.
John answered them, saying, I immerse in water, but amidst you stands him whom ye know not.
27 Tema tuleb pärast mind, aga ma ei ole väärt isegi tema sandaale lahti päästma.“
He is the man who comes after me, who has become before me, of whom I am not worthy that I might loosen the strap of his shoe.
28 See kõik toimus teiselpool Jordanit Betaanias, kus Johannes ristis.
These things occurred in Bethany beyond the Jordan where John was immersing.
29 Järgmisel päeval nägi Johannes Jeesust lähenemas ja ütles: „Vaadake, Jumala Tall, kes võtab ära maailma patu!
On the morrow John sees Jesus coming to him, and he says, Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
30 Tema on see, kellest ma rääkisin, kui ütlesin: „Pärast mind tuleb minust tähtsam mees, sest tema oli olemas juba enne mind.“
This is he about whom I said, After me comes a man who has become before me, because he was before me.
31 Ma ise ei teadnud, kes ta on, kuid mina tulin ristima veega, et tema saaks Iisraelile ilmutatud.“
And I had not known him, but that he would be made known to Israel. Because of this I came immersing in water.
32 Johannes andis tunnistust temast, öeldes: „Ma nägin taevast laskumas Vaimu nagu tuvi ja tema peale jäämas.
And John testified, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained upon him.
33 Ma ei oleks teda tundud, kui see, kes läkitas mind veega ristima, ei oleks mulle öelnud: „See, kelle peale sa näed Vaimu laskumas ja sinna jäämas, on see, kes ristib Püha Vaimuga.“
And I had not known him. But he who sent me to immerse in water, he said to me, Upon whomever thou will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him, this is he who immerses in the Holy Spirit.
34 Ma nägin seda toimumas ja kinnitan, et see on Jumala Poeg.“
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.
35 Järgmisel päeval seisis Johannes koos oma kahe jüngriga.
Again on the morrow John stood, and two of his disciples.
36 Ta nägi Jeesust mööda minemas ja ütles: „Vaadake! See on Jumala Tall!“
And having looked upon Jesus walking, he says, Behold, the Lamb of God!
37 Kui kaks jüngrit kuulsid tema sõnu, läksid nad ja järgisid Jeesust.
And the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
38 Jeesus pöördus ja nägi neid järgnemas. „Mida te otsite?“küsis ta neilt. „Rabi (mis tähendab „Õpetaja“), kus sa peatud?“küsisid nad vastu.
And Jesus having turned, and having seen them following, says to them, What seek ye? And they said to him, Rabbi (which says, being interpreted, Teacher), where do thou dwell?
39 „Tulge ja vaadake, “ütles ta neile. Nii nad siis läksid koos temaga ja nägid, kus ta peatus. Kell oli umbes neli pärastlõunal, ja nad veetsid ülejäänud päeva temaga koos.
He says to them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and remained with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40 Andreas, Siimon Peetruse vend, oli üks neist kahest jüngrist, kes olid kuulnud, mida Johannes ütles, ja oli Jeesust järginud.
Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard from John and who followed him.
41 Ta läks kohe otsima oma venda Siimonat ja ütles talle: „Me leidsime Messia!“(mis tähendab „Kristus“).
This man first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
42 Ta viis tema Jeesuse juurde. Siimonale otsa vaadates ütles Jeesus: „Sina oled Siimon, Johannese poeg. Aga nüüd hüütakse sind Keefaseks“(mis tähendab „Peetrus“).
And he brought him to Jesus. And having seen him, Jesus said, Thou are Simon the son of Jonah. Thou will be called Cephas (which is interpreted, Peter).
43 Järgmisel päeval otsustas Jeesus minna Galileasse. Jeesus leidis sealt Filippuse ja ütles talle: „Järgne mulle.“
On the morrow he wanted to go forth into Galilee, and he finds Philip. And Jesus says to him, Follow me.
44 Filippus oli pärit Betsaidast, samast linnast, kust Andreas ja Peetruski.
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filippus leidis Naatanaeli ja ütles talle: „Me leidsime tema, kellest Mooses kirjutas seaduses ja ka prohvetid − Naatsaretist pärit Jeesuse, Joosepi poja.“
Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets wrote: Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth.
46 „Naatsaretist? Kas sealt saab tulla midagi head?“imestas Naatanael. „Lihtsalt tule ja vaata, “vastas Filippus.
And Nathanael said to him, What good can be from Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.
47 Kui Jeesus nägi Naatanaeli lähenemas, ütles ta tema kohta: „Vaadake, siin on õige iisraellane! Temas ei ole midagi väärat.“
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says about him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit.
48 „Kuidas sa tead, kes ma olen?“küsis Naatanael. „Ma nägin sind seal viigipuu all, enne kui Filippus sind kutsus, “vastas Jeesus.
Nathanael says to him, How do thou know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called thee, being under the fig tree, I saw thee.
49 „Rabi, sina oled Jumala Poeg, Iisraeli kuningas!“hüüatas Naatanael.
Nathanael answered, and says to him, Rabbi, thou are the Son of God. Thou are the king of Israel.
50 „Kas sa usud seda lihtsalt sellepärast, et ma ütlesin sulle, et nägin sind viigipuu all?“ütles Jeesus. „Sa saad näha veel palju rohkem kui see!“
Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, thou believe? Thou will see greater than these things.
51 Seejärel lausus Jeesus: „Ma räägin teile tõtt: te kõik näete taeva olevat avatud ja Jumala inglid käimas üles ja alla inimese Poja peal.“
And he says to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, henceforth ye will see the heaven opened, and the agents of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
