Yoana 1
1 Kubwambilo gwaliga gulio Omusango, no Musango aliga amwi na Nyamuanga, Na Musango aligaali Nyamuanga.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Oyo, Musango, mubwambilo aliga amwi Na Nyamuanga.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Bhinu byona byakolelwe okutula kumwene atakabheye omwene chitalio nolwo chinu chimwi echo chakakolelwe.
By Him were all things made, and without Him was not any one thing made that was made.
4 Bwikalo bhaye bhaliga bhuanga, no bhuanga bwaliga bwelu bwa bhanu bhona.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 Bwelu nibwatika muchisute, nolwo echisute chitalisimishe.
And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness attained it not.
6 Aligaalio omunu oyo aliga atumwilwe okusoka Kunyamuanga unu lisina aliga Yohana.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John:
7 Ejile okubhambalila obwelu, koleleki bhatule okwikilisha okutula kumwene.
this man came for witness, that he might testify concerning the light, that through him all might believe.
8 Yohana aliga atali bwelu, nawe ejile okubhambalila obwelu.
He was not that light, but was sent to bear witness of the light.
9 Obhwo bhwaliga bhuli bwelu bhwe echimali obhwo bhwaliga nibhuja muchalo obhwelu Obhwo nibhusosha obhwelu kubhuli munu.
The true light was that which enlightneth every man that cometh into the world.
10 Aligali musi, na isi yakolelwe okutula kumwene, na isi itamumenyele.
He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and yet the world knew Him not:
11 Ejile kwe bhinu byaye, na bhamu bhatamulamiye.
yea, He came to his own peculiar right, and even his own people received Him not.
12 Nawe kwa bhafu bhanu bhamulamiye, bhekilisishe lisina lyaye, kwa bhanu abhayanile okubha bhana bha Nyamuanga,
But as many as received Him, to them granted He the privilege to become the children of God, even to them that believe on his name;
13 Bhanu bhatebhuywe, atali kwa manyinga, okubha kwe lyenda lyo munu, nawe ku Nyamuanga wenyele.
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Newe musango nakolwa mubhili nekala kweswe, nichilola likusho lyaye, likusho lilabha lya munu wenyele oyo ejile okusoka ku Lata, ejuye echigongo ne chimali.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, being full of grace and truth: and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only-begotten of the Father.
15 Yohana nabhambalila omwene naikila ingulu ati,”Unu niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,”uliya kaja kulwani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha abheyeo nichali anye.”
Of Him did John bare witness, and publicly declared, saying, This was He of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me; for He was before me.
16 Kwo kubha okusoka mukukumila bwaye eswe chiyabhilwe kwe chigongo.
And of his fulness have we all received, even grace for grace.
17 Okubha ebhilagilo bhiletelwe okutulila ku Musa. Echigongo nechimali byejile ku Yesu Kirsto.
For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ:
18 Atalio munu oyo amulolele Nyumuanga mwanya gwona. Omunu wenyele unu ni Nyamuanga, ali muchifubha cha Lata, amukolelede omwene bhamumenyega.
and though no one hath ever seen God, or can see Him: yet the only-begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, hath made Him known.
19 Na bhunu nibhubhambasi bwa Yohana omwanya abhagabhisi na bhalawi bhamutumele kwaye na Bhayahudi nibhamubhusha ati, Awe niga?”
And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent from Jerusalem priests and Levites to ask him, Who art thou?
20 Nawe atetimatile atali, nabhasubya,”Anye atali Krisito.”
he confessed, and denied not; but declared openly, I am not the Christ.
21 Kutyo nibhamubhusha ati,”kulwejo awe ni niga woli?” Awe ni Eliya? Naika ati,”Anye nitali.”nibhaika ati, Awe ni muligi? Nasubya,”Uli.”
And they asked him, What then? art thou Elias? And he said, I am not. Art thou a prophet? and he answered, No.
22 Nibhamubwila ati,”Awe nawega, koleleki chibhayane lisubyo abhobhachitule”? Owibhambalilaatiki awe wenyele?”
Therefore said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us: What dost thou say of thy self?
23 Naika, “anye ni bhulaka bhaye unu ali ibhala:'Mugololele injila ya Lata bhugenyi Alabha omulagi Isaya kutyo aikile.”
and he said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, "Make straight the way of the Lord," according to Esaias the prophet.
24 Bhaliga bhali bhanu bhatumilwe okusoka ku bhafalisayo. Nibhamubhusha ati ni bhaika,
Now they that were sent, were of the pharisees:
25 “Kulwaki oubhatija labha awe atali Kristo amwi Eliya amwi mulagi?”
and they asked him, and said to him, Why then dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elias, nor a prophet?
26 Yohana nabhasubya naika ati,”enibhatija kwa manji. Nolwo kutyo agati yemwe kemelegulu omunu oyo mutakumenya.
John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
27 Unu niwe kaja kulwanye. Anye niteile kugesha olukobha lwa bhilato byaye.”
that cometh after me, but is preferred before me, the latchet of whose shoe I am not worthy to unloose.
28 Emisago jinu jitagendeleye eyo Bethania, kungego ya Yorodani enu Yohana aliga nabhatija.
These things passed at Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Mwejo Yohana namulola Yesu naja kwaye naika ati,”Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga unu kagega ebhibhibhi bye chalo!
The next day John seeth Jesus coming towards him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world.
30 Oyo niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,” oyo kaja inyuma yani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha niwe atangatiye.'
This is He of whom I said, After me cometh a man, who is preferred before me: for He was before me.
31 Nitamumenyele omwene, nawe yakolelwe kutyo koleleki abhulisibwe ku Israeli, ati nejile nimbatija kwa manji.”
And I knew Him not: but therefore came I baptizing with water, that He might be made known to Israel.
32 Yohana nabhambalila,”nalola Omwoyo neka okusoka mulwile lwa injibha, ni mubhako ingulu yaye.
And John testified saying, I saw the Spirit descending like a dove from heaven, and it abode upon Him.
33 Anye nitamumenyele nawe omwene oyo antumile nibhatije kwa manji nambwila ati, unu ulilola Omwoyo neka neyanja ingulu yaye, Oyo niwe kabhatija kwa Omwoyo Mwelu.'
And I knew Him not: but He that sent me to baptize with water, said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on Him, the same is he that baptizeth with the Holy Spirit.
34 Nindola na nimbambalila ati onu ni Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
And I saw it, and therefore testified that this is the Son of God.
35 Mwejo Yohana aliga emeleguyu amwi na bheigisibwa bhaye bhabhili,
The day following John was standing, (and two of his disciples, )
36 Bhamulolele Yesu nalibhata na Yohana naika ati, Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga?”
and looking upon Jesus as He was walking, he saith, "Behold the lamb of God."
37 Abheigisibwa bhabhili nibhamugwa Yohana naika ati bhamulubhe Yesu.
And when the two disciples heard what he said, they followed Jesus.
38 Lindi Yesu nainduka na bhalola abheigisibwa bhaye nibhamulubha, nabhabwila ati, Omuyenjaki?” Ni bhamusubya ati,”Rabbi, (obhugajulo bwaye'mwiigisha,'wikaye aki?”
And Jesus turning, and seeing them following Him, saith unto them, What do ye seek? They said unto Him, Rabbi (that is to say, Master, ) where is thine abode?
39 Nabhabwila ati,”muje mulole.”Mbe nibhagenda nibhalola anu aliga ekaye; nibheyanja amwi nage lusiku olwo, Okubha yaliga uti saa ekumi kutya.
He saith unto them, Come and see. And they came and saw where He dwelt, and abode with Him that day: and it was about the tenth hour.
40 Oumwi wa bhaliya bhabhili abhobhamunguwe Yohana naika no kumulubha Yesu aliga Andrea, owabho Simoni Petro.
Now Andrew the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two that heard what John said, and thereupon followed Jesus.
41 Namulola omula wabho Simoni na mubwila ati,”Chamulolele Masiya”(obhugajulo bwalyo ati Kristo).
He first meeteth with his own brother Simon, and telleth him, "We have found the Messiah, which is to say, the Christ."
42 Namuleta ku Yesu. Yesu namulolelela naika ati,”Awe ni Simoni omwana wa Yohana”ulibhilikilwa Kefa,”(obhugajulo bwalyo' Petro').
And Andrew brought him to Jesus: and Jesus looking at him said, Thou art Simon the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas; which is interpreted a stone.
43 lusiku olwolwalubhiye omwanya Yesu nenda okugenda Galilaya, amubwene Filipo namubwila ati,”niundubhe anye.”
The day following Jesus had a mind to go out into Galilee, and meeting with Philip, saith unto him, Follow me.
44 Filipo aligali wa Bethsaida, mu musi gwa Andrea na Petro.
Now Philip was of Bethsaida the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filipo namubhona Nathanaeli namubhila ati, Chamubhona uliya unu Musa andikile emisango jaye ne bhilagilo nabhalagi. Yesu omwana wa Yusufu, okusoka Nazareti.
Philip meeting Nathaniel, saith unto him, We have found Him, of whom Moses in the law, and of whom the prophets also wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Jeseph.
46 Nathanaeli namubwila ati,”Mbe echinu chakisi echitula okusoka Nazareti?”Filipo namubwila ati, Ija olole.”
And Nathaniel said unto him, Can any thing good come out of Nazareth? Philip replied, Come and see.
47 Yesu namulola Nathanaeli naja kumwene naika ati,”Lola, Omwisraeli wechimali wechimali unu atali bhuligelige kwaye!”
And when Jesus saw Nathaniel coming towards Him, He saith concerning him, "Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile."
48 Nathanaeli namubhwila ati,” Wamenyeyeaki anye?” yesu namusubya namubwila ati,”achali Filipo okubhilikila uli asi yo mutini, gwokulola.”
Nathaniel saith unto Him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered him, Before Philip called thee, I saw thee, when under the fig-tree.
49 Nathanaeli nasubya,”Rabi awe uli mwana wa Nyamuanga! Awe ni Mukama wa Israeli”!
Nathaniel replied, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the king of Israel.
50 Yeau nasubya namubwila ati, kwo kubha nakubwiliye' nakulolele asi yo mutini' mbe wekilisha? oulola ebhikolwa byafu okukila bhinu.”
Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I told thee that I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou believest: thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 Yesu naika ati,”Nichimali chimali enibhabwila ati mulilola olwile lwigukile na mulibhalola bhamalaika nibhalinya na nibheka ingulu yo Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
And He saith unto him, Verily verily I say unto you, Ye shall hereafter see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
