Yoana 3
1 Mbe aliga alio Farisayo unu lisina lyaye Nikodemo, oumwi.
There was a man of the Pharisees, the name to him Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;
2 Omunu unu amulubhile Esebhugenyi mungeta namubwila ati, “Ribi, chimenyele kubha uli mutangasha osokele ku Nyamuanga, Kulwejo atalio omunu unu katula okutula ebhibhalikisho bhinu vyona Nyamuanga akalema okubha amwi nage.”
the same came to Him by night, and said to Him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come a teacher from God; for no one is able to do these miracles, which thou art doing, unless God may he with him.
3 Yesu nasubya ati, “Nichimali, chimali, omunu atakutula okwingila mu bhukama bwa Nyamuanga atebhuwe kwiya kabhili.”
Jesus responded and said to him, Truly, truly, I say unto thee, unless any one may be born from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God.
4 Nikodemo naika ati,” Omunu katula kutiki okwibhulwa alabha mukaluka? atakutula kwingila munda ya nyilamwene olwa kabhili nebhulwa mbe katula?”
Nicodemus says to him; How is a man able to be born, being old? whether he is able to enter the second time into the womb of his mother, and be born?
5 Yesu nasubya ati, “Nichimali, chimali omunu akalema okwibhulwa kwa manji na kwa Mwoyo, atakutula kwingila mubhukama bwa Nyamuanga.
Jesus responded, Truly, truly, I say unto thee, Unless any one may be born of water and Spirit, he is not able to enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
6 Chinu chibhuwe kwo mubhili no mubhili, na chinu chibhuliwe kwo Mwoyo ni mwoyo.
That which has been born of the flesh is flesh; and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Usigekulugula kwo kubha nakubwiliye, nibhusi husi okwibhulwa kabhili.'
Be not astonished because I said to thee; It behooveth you to be born from above.
8 Omuyanga oguyemba wona wona eyo ogwenda no bhulaka bwae omubhugwa, nawe mutakumenya eyo ogusoka neyo oguja. Nikwo kutyo jili bhuli unu ebhuwe no mwoyo.
The Spirit breathes on whom He willeth, and thou hearest His voice, but dost not know whence He cometh and whither He goeth; so is every one who has been born of the Spirit.
9 Nikodemo nasubya ati, kwo kwaika, “Emisango jinu ejikolekana kutiki?”
Nicodemus responded and said to Him, How are these things able to he?
10 Yesu nasubya ati, “Awe ni mwiigisha wa Israeli, nolwo otakumenya emisango jinu?
Jesus responded and said to him, Art thou a teacher of Israel and knowest not these things?
11 Nichimali, chimali nakubwila ati, chiliya echoechimenya chachibhambaliye ku chiliya echoechilola. Mbe mutakulamila obhubhambasi bweswe.
Truly, truly, I say unto thee, that we speak what we know, and testify what we have seen; and you received not our testimony.
12 Alabha nabhabwila emisango ja kuchalo namutakwikilisha, omutula kutiki okwikilisha alabha nabhabwila emisango mulwile?
If I spoke to you things upon the earth, and you do net believe, how will you believe, if I speak to you of things in heaven?
13 Mbe atalio unu alinyile ingulu okusoka mulwile tali unu ekile, Omwana wo munu.
No one hath ascended up into heaven, but the one having come down from heaven, the Son of man, who is in heaven.
14 Kulwejo Musa ayanikile injoka ibhala, kutyo kutyo Omwana wo munu bhusibhusi ayanikwe,
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so does it behoove the Son of man to be lifted up:
that every one believing in Him may have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
16 Kwo kubha nikwo kutyo Nyamuanga achendele echalo ati namusosha Omwana wae umwila, Koleleki bhuli munu wona wona amwikilishe ataja kubhula nawe abhe no bhuanga bwa kajanende. (aiōnios g166)
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that every one believing on Him may not perish but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Kwo kubha Nyamuanga atamukutula Omwana wae achilamulile echalo chikilbwe kumwene.
For God sent not His Son into the world that He may condemn the world; but that the world through Him may be saved.
18 Unu kamwikilisha atakulamulwa. Unu atakelisishe alamuwe kwo kubha atalikilisishe lisina lwo Mwana umwila was Nyamuanga.
He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not, has already been condemned, because he has not believed on the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 Inu niyo injuno yo kulamula, ati obwelu bwijile muchalo, nawe bhanya bhanu nibhenda echisute okukila obwelu kwo kubha ebhikolwa byabho byalinga bhibhibhi.
And this is the condemnation, that light has come into the world, and men love darkness rather than light; for their works are evil.
20 Bhuli munu Unu kakola bhubhibhi kabhiililwa obwelu nolwo atakuja mubwelu Koleleki ebhikolwa byae byasiga okutulwa abwelu.
For every one doing evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, in order that his works may not be convicted;
21 Nawe, unu kakola echimali kaja mubwelu koleleki ebhikolwa byae bhibhokane ati byakolelwe kwa likusho lya Nyamuanga.
but every one doing the truth comes to the light, that his works may be made manifest, because they have been wrought in God.
22 Wejile ejo jawa, Yesu amwi na bheigisibwa mbagenda mu chalo cha Yudea. Eyo agegele omwanya amwi nabho aliga nabhatija.
After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the Judean country; and there He was tarrying with them and baptizing.
23 Woli Yohana on aliga nabhatija eyo Ainea yei na Salim kwo kubha galiga galio na manji mafu aliya. Abhanu bhaliga nibhaja kumwene nabhabhatija,
And John was also baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there were many waters there: and they came and baptized.
24 Kwo kubha Yohana aliga achali okweswa mwibhoyelo.
For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 Mbe mbabhambashanya abheigisibwa bha Yohana no Muyaudi ku malya gwo kwiyesha.
And there was a disputation of the disciples of John, concerning purifying.
26 Nibhagenda ku Yohana nibhamubwila ati, “Rabi, unu waliga nage kungego yo mugela gwa Yorodani, unu abhambaliye emisango jaye, lola, nabhatija na bhona abhagenda abhamujako.”
And they came to John, and said to him, Rabbi, He who is with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all are coming to Him.
27 Yohana nabhasubya ati omunu atakutula kulamila chinu chona chona tali aguyanibwe okusoka mu lwile.
John responded and said, No man is able to receive anything, unless it may have been given unto him from heaven.
28 Emwe abhene mwabhambalila kubha naika ati, 'anye nitali Kristo', nawe naikile ati, 'natumilwe imbele yae.'
You are witnessing to me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him.
29 Unu ali no mwenga ni mutwasi. Woli omusani wo mutwasi, nemelegulu namungwa ka alikondelwa muno kwo kubha lilaka lyae omutwasi. Inu woli ni kondelelwa lyani likumiye.
The one having the bride is the Bridegroom: but the friend of the Bridegroom is the one standing and hearing him, rejoiceth with joy on account of the Bridegroom: This, my joy has been made complete.
30 Kumwiile okukula, anye kunyiile okukeya.
It behooveth Him to increase, and me to decrease.
31 Unu kasoka inguli Ali ingulu ya bhona unu we chalo kasoka muchalo na kaika emisango ja ku chalo. Unu kasoka mulwile niwe katunga byona. Unu kabhambalila galiya ago alolele
He that cometh from above is above all;
32 nokugongwa, nawe atalio unu alamiye obhubhambasi bwae.
the one being of the earth is of the earth, and speaks of the earth. The one coming from heaven witnesses what He has seen and heard, and no one receives His testimony.
33 Unu alamiye obhubhambasi bwae katao echibhalikisho kubha Nyamuanga ni we chimali.
The one having received His testimony hath set his seal, that God is true.
34 Kwo kubha unu atumilwe na Nyamuanga kaika emisango ja Nyamuanga. Okubha atakumuyana omwoyo kwo kulenga.
For whom God sent speaketh the words of God: for He does not give His spirit by measure.
35 Lata kamwenda Omwana na muyaye bhinu bhyona mumabhoko gaye.
The Father loves the Son, and has given all things in His hands.
36 Unu amwikilisishe Omwana anabyo obhuanga bwa kajanende, nawe ku unu atakumwikilisha Omwana atalibhubhona bhuanga, nawe lisungu lya Nyamuanga limuliko inguluyae. (aiōnios g166)
He that believes on the Son has eternal life; but he that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. (aiōnios g166)
