< Juan 7 >

1 Kalpasan dagitoy a banbanag, nagdaliasat ni Jesus idiay Galilea ta saanna a kayat ti mapan idiay Judea agsipud ta agar-aramid iti plano dagiti Judio a papatayen isuna.
After this, Jesus went about in Galilee, for he would not do so in Judea, because the religious authorities (in Jerusalem) were eager to put him to death.
2 Ita asidegen ti fiesta dagiti Judio, ti Fiesta dagiti Abong-abong.
When the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near,
3 Kinuna ngarud kenkuana dagiti kakabsatna a lallaki, “Panawam daytoy a lugar ket mapanka idiay Judea tapno makita met dagiti adalam dagiti ar-aramidem.
his brothers said to him, “Leave this part of the country, and go into Judea, so that your disciples, as well as we, may see the work that you are doing.
4 Awan iti mangaramid iti aniaman a banag nga nalimed no kayatna a nalatak a maam-amo isuna. No aramidem dagitoy a banbanag, ipakitam ti bagim iti lubong.”
For no one does a thing privately, if they are seeking to be widely known. Since you do these things, you should show yourself publicly to the world.”
5 Ta uray dagiti kakabsatna a lallaki ket saan a namati kenkuna.
For even his brothers did not believe in him.
6 Gapuna kinuna ni Jesus kadakuada, “Saan pay a dimteng ti oras ko ngem kankanayon a nakasagana iti orasyo.
“My time,” answered Jesus, “is not come yet, but your time is always here.
7 Saannakayo a kagura ti lubong, ngem siak kagurana agsipud ta pinaneknekak a dagiti aramidna ket dakes.
The world cannot hate you, but it does hate me, because I testify that its ways are evil.
8 Sumang-at kayo iti fiesta; saan pay a nadanon iti tiempok isu a saanak nga umay iti daytoy a fiesta.
Go yourselves up to the Festival; I am not going to this Festival yet, because my time has not yet come.”
9 Nagtalinaed isuna idiay Galilea kalpasan nga imbagana dagitoy kadakuada.
After telling them this, he stayed on in Galilee.
10 Nupay kasta, kalpasan a simmang-at iti fiesta dagiti kakabsatna, simmang-at met laeng isuna ngem saan a nalatak ngem sililimed.
But, when his brothers had gone up to the Festival, Jesus also went up – not publicly, but privately.
11 Sapsapulen dagiti Judio isuna iti fiesta ket kinunada, “Sadino isuna?”
The authorities were looking for him at the Festival and asking ‘Where is he?’;
12 Nagado iti panaglilinnawag dagiti tattao maipanggep kenkuana sadiay. Sumagmamano iti nagkuna, “Nasayaat a tao isuna.” Kinuna iti dadduma, “Saan ta inyaw-awanna dagiti tattao.”
and there were many whispers about him among the people, some saying ‘He is a good man;’ others, ‘No! He is leading the people astray.’
13 Awan iti nagsao iti nalatak maipanggep kenkuana gapu iti butengda kadagiti Judio.
No one, however, spoke freely about him, because they were afraid of the authorities.
14 Idin ta malpas ti kagudua iti fiesta, immuli ni Jesus iti templo ket nangrugi a nangisursuro. Masmasdaaw dagiti Judio ket ibagbagada,
About the middle of the Festival week, Jesus went up into the Temple Courts, and began teaching.
15 “Kasano nga adu iti ammona daytoy a tao ket saan met a nakaadal.”
The authorities were astonished. “How has this man got his learning,” they asked, “when he has never studied?”
16 Simmungbat ni Jesus ket kinunana kadakuada, “Saanko a kukua ti isursurok ngem ketdi isuna a nangibaon kaniak.”
So, in reply, Jesus said, “My teaching is not my own; it is his who sent me.
17 No adda ti siasinoman nga agtarigagay a mangaramid iti pagayatan iti maysa, ammona iti kaipapanan dagitoy a sursuro, ammoenna no naggapu iti Dios, wenno nagsaoak iti bagik.
If anyone has the will to do God’s will, they will find out whether my teaching is from God, or whether I speak on my own authority.
18 Ti siasinoman nga agsasao iti bukodna, birbirukenna ti bukodna a dayag, ngem ti tao a mangbirbirok iti dayag iti nangibaon kenkuana, pudno dayta a tao ken awan iti saan a nalinteg kenkuana.
The person who speaks on their own authority seeks honor for themselves; but the one who seeks the honor of him who sent him is sincere, and there is nothing false in him.
19 Saan kadi a ni Moises ti nangted kadakayo iti linteg? Ngem awan kadakayo iti mangar-aramid iti linteg. “Apay a kayatdak a papatayen?”
Was not it Moses who gave you the Law? Yet not one of you obeys it! Why are you seeking to put me to death?”
20 Simmungbat dagiti tattao, “Adda kaniam iti demonio, siasino iti mangayat a mangpapatay kenka?”
“You must be possessed by a demon!” the people exclaimed. “Who is seeking to put you to death?”
21 Simmungbat ni Jesus ket kinuna kadakuada, “Nagaramidak iti maysa nga aramid ket nasdaaw kayo amin gapu iti daytoy.
“There was one thing I did,” replied Jesus, “at which you are all still wondering.
22 Inted ni Moises kadakayo iti pannakakugit ( saan nga naggapo ken Moises ngem kadagiti kapuonan) ket mangkugit kayo iti maysa a lalaki iti Aldaw a Panaginana.
But that is why Moses has instituted circumcision among you – not, indeed, that it began with him, but with our ancestors – and that is why you circumcise even on a Sabbath.
23 No makaawat ti pannakakugit ti lalaki iti Aldaw a Panaginana tapno saan a maburak iti linteg ni Moises. Apay a makaungetkayo kaniak no inaramid ko a naan-anay a naagasan ti lalaki iti Aldaw a Panaginana?
When a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath to prevent the Law of Moses from being broken, how can you be angry with me for making a man sound and well on a Sabbath?
24 Saankayo a mangukom a maiyanatup iti akin ruar a langa, ngem mangukomkayo iti nalinteg.”
Do not judge by appearances; judge justly.”
25 Kinuna dagiti sumagmamano kadakuada a manipud iti Jerusalem, “Saan kadi a daytoy a lalaki ti birbirukenda a papatayen?
At this some of the people of Jerusalem exclaimed, “Is not this the man who they are seeking to put to death?
26 Ket kitaenyo, agsao isuna a silalatak, ken awan maibagada kenkuana. Saan a mabalin a pudno unay nga ammo dagiti mangiturturay a daytoy ket ti Cristo, mabalin kadi?
Yet here he is, speaking out boldly, and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that our leading men have really discovered that he is the Christ?
27 Ammotayo iti naggapuan daytoy a tao, no umay ti Cristo awan ti makaammo no sadino ti paggapuanna.”
Yet we know where this man is from; but, when the Christ comes, no one will be able to tell where he is from.”
28 Agpukpukkaw a mangisursuro ni Jesus idiay templo, ken ibagbagana, “Agpada nga am-ammodak ken ammoyo no sadino ti naggapuak, saanak nga immay iti bukodko laeng, ngem pudno iti nangibaon kaniak ken saanyo isuna nga am-ammo.
Therefore, Jesus, as he was teaching in the Temple Courts, raised his voice and said, “Yes; you know me and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own authority, but he who sent me may be trusted; and him you do not know.
29 Am-ammok isuna gapu ta naggapuak kenkuana ken imbaonnak.”
I do know him, for it is from him that I have come, and he sent me as his messenger.”
30 Padpadasenda a tiliwen isuna, ngem awan uray maysa a nangipatay iti imana kenkuana agsipud ta saan pay nga immay iti orasna. Nupay kasta, adu kadagiti tattao ti namati kenkuana, kinunada,
So they sought to arrest him; but no one touched him, for his time was not come yet.
31 “Inton umay ti Cristo agaramidto met ngata isuna kadagiti ad- adu a pagilasinan ngem kadagiti inaramid daytoy a tao?”
Many of the people, however, believed in him. “When the Christ comes,” they said, “will he give more signs of his mission than this man has given?”
32 Nangngeg dagiti Fariseo nga agiinnarasaas dagiti tattao kadagitoy a banbanag maipapan ken Jesus. Nangibaon dagiti panguloen a papadi ken dagiti Fariseo kadagiti opisial tapno tiliwenda isuna.
The Pharisees heard the people whispering about him in this way, and so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him;
33 Kinuna ngarud ni Jesus, “Iti ababa a panawen, addaak pay laeng kadakayo, ken mapanakto kenkuana a nangibaon kaniak.
at which Jesus said, “I will be with you but a little longer, and then I am going to him who sent me.
34 Birukendakto ngem saandak a masarakan, saankayonto a makaumay idiay papanak.”
You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be.”
35 Ibagbaga ngarud dagiti Judio kadagiti bagbagida, “Papanan ngata daytoy a lalaki a saan tayonto isuna a mabirukan. Mapan ngata kadagiti Naiwaras a Griego ken mangisuro kadakuada?
“Where is this man going,” the people asked one another, “that we would not find him? Will he go to our countrymen abroad, and teach foreigners?
36 Ania daytoy nga imbagana, 'Birukendakto ngem saandak a masarakan, saankayonto a makaumay idiay papanak'?”
What does he mean by saying ‘You will look for me, and you will not find me; and you will not be able to come where I will be’?”
37 Ita ti maudi nga aldaw, ti naindaklan nga aldaw iti fiesta, nagtakder ni Jesus ken ipukpukkawna, “No adda ti siasinoman a mawaw, palubusanyo nga umay kaniak ket uminom.
On the last and greatest day of the Festival, Jesus, who was standing by, exclaimed, “If anyone is thirsty, they should come to me and drink.
38 Ti siasinoman a mamati kaniak kas imbaga iti Nasantoan a Surat, manipud iti unegna, agayos dagiti karkarayan iti sibibiag a danum.”
From the heart of those who believe in me will flow, as is said in scripture, rivers of living water.”
39 Ngem imbaga ni Jesus daytoy maipapan iti Espiritu, nga awaten dagiti namati kenkuana ngem saan pay a naited ti Espiritu agsipud ta saan pay a napadayawan ni Jesus.
(By this he meant the Spirit, which those who had believed in him were to receive; for the Spirit had not yet come, because Jesus had not yet been exalted.)
40 Kinuna dagiti sumagmamano kadagiti tattao idi nangngegda dagitoy a sasao, “Daytoy iti pudno a profeta.”
Some of the people, when they heard these words, said, “This is certainly the Prophet!”;
41 Kinuna met iti sumagmamano a, “Daytoy iti Cristo.” Ngem kinuna met dagiti dadduma “Ania, aggapu kadi iti Galilea ti Cristo?
others said, “the Christ!”; but some asked, “What! Does the Christ come from Galilee?
42 Saan kadi nga imbaga iti Nasantoan a Surat nga agtaud iti Cristo iti linya ni David, idiay Betlehem a bario ni David idi?”
Is not it said in scripture that it is of the descendants of David, and from Bethlehem, the village to which David belonged, that the Christ is to come?”
43 Isu a rimsua ngarud iti panagsisina kadagiti adu a tattao gapu kenkuana.
So there was a sharp division among the people because of Jesus.
44 Tiliwen koma iti sumagmamano isuna, ngem awan uray maysa a nangipatay iti im-imada kenkuana.
Some of them wanted to arrest him, and yet no one touched him.
45 Nagsubli dagiti opisyal kadagiti panguloen a papadi ken kadagiti Fariseo a nangibaga kadakuada,
When the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, they were asked, “Why have you not brought him?”
46 “Apay a saanyo isuna nga inyeg,” Simmungbat dagiti opisyal, “Awan pay pulos idi ti tao a nagsao kas iti daytoy.”
“No one ever spoke as he speaks!” they answered.
47 Simmungbat ngarud dagiti Fariseo kadakuada, “Naiyaw-awankayo kadi met?
“What! Have you been led astray too?” the Pharisees replied.
48 Adda kadi siasinoman kadagiti agtuturay wenno siasinoman a Fariseo ti namati kenkuana?
“Have any of our leading men believed in him, or any of the Pharisees?
49 Ngem nailunod dagitoy a tattao a saan a makaammo iti linteg.”
As for these people who do not know the Law – they are cursed!”
50 Kinuna ni Nicodemo kadakuada, ( isuna a napan ken Jesus iti nasapsapa, maysa isuna kadagiti Fariseo),
But one of their number, Nicodemus, who before this had been to see Jesus, said to them,
51 “Mangukom kadi iti lintegtayo iti tao malaksid a mangngegan isuna nga umuna wenno maammoan iti inaramidna?”
“Does our Law pass judgment on a person without first giving them a hearing, and finding out what they have been doing?”
52 Simmungbatda ket kinunada kenkuana, “Maysaka kadi met a taga Galilea? Sukimatem ket makitam nga awan iti profeta nga aggapu iti Galilea.”
“Are you also from Galilee?” they retorted. “Search, and you will find that no prophet is to arise in Galilee!”
53 Kalpasanna, napan iti tunggal maysa iti bukodna a balay.
And everyone went home
