Yoana 3
1 Mbe aliga alio Farisayo unu lisina lyaye Nikodemo, oumwi.
And there was a man of the Pharisees, named 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.”
This man came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou hast come as a teacher from God; for no one can do these signs which thou doest, unless God be with him.
3 Yesu nasubya ati, “Nichimali, chimali, omunu atakutula okwingila mu bhukama bwa Nyamuanga atebhuwe kwiya kabhili.”
Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born again, he cannot 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 saith to him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter his mother's womb a second time, and be born?
5 Yesu nasubya ati, “Nichimali, chimali omunu akalema okwibhulwa kwa manji na kwa Mwoyo, atakutula kwingila mubhukama bwa Nyamuanga.
Jesus answered, Truly, truly do I say to thee, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.
6 Chinu chibhuwe kwo mubhili no mubhili, na chinu chibhuliwe kwo Mwoyo ni mwoyo.
That which is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit, is spirit.
7 Usigekulugula kwo kubha nakubwiliye, nibhusi husi okwibhulwa kabhili.'
Marvel not that I said to thee, Ye must be born again.
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 wind bloweth where it will; and thou hearest the sound thereof, but knowest not whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
9 Nikodemo nasubya ati, kwo kwaika, “Emisango jinu ejikolekana kutiki?”
Nicodemus answered and said to him, How can these things be?
10 Yesu nasubya ati, “Awe ni mwiigisha wa Israeli, nolwo otakumenya emisango jinu?
Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou the teacher of Israel, and understandest not these things?
11 Nichimali, chimali nakubwila ati, chiliya echoechimenya chachibhambaliye ku chiliya echoechilola. Mbe mutakulamila obhubhambasi bweswe.
Truly, truly do I say to thee, We speak that which we know, and testify that which we have seen; and ye receive not our testimony.
12 Alabha nabhabwila emisango ja kuchalo namutakwikilisha, omutula kutiki okwikilisha alabha nabhabwila emisango mulwile?
If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how will ye believe if I tell you heavenly things?
13 Mbe atalio unu alinyile ingulu okusoka mulwile tali unu ekile, Omwana wo munu.
And no one hath ascended into heaven, but he who came down from heaven, even the Son of man.
14 Kulwejo Musa ayanikile injoka ibhala, kutyo kutyo Omwana wo munu bhusibhusi ayanikwe,
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up
that every one who believeth in him may have everlasting 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 the only begotten Son, that every one who believeth in him may not perish, but may have everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
17 Kwo kubha Nyamuanga atamukutula Omwana wae achilamulile echalo chikilbwe kumwene.
For God sent not the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that through him the world might be saved.
18 Unu kamwikilisha atakulamulwa. Unu atakelisishe alamuwe kwo kubha atalikilisishe lisina lwo Mwana umwila was Nyamuanga.
He that believeth in him is not condemned; he that believeth not hath already been condemned, because he hath not believed in 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 the light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their deeds were evil.
20 Bhuli munu Unu kakola bhubhibhi kabhiililwa obwelu nolwo atakuja mubwelu Koleleki ebhikolwa byae byasiga okutulwa abwelu.
For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, and cometh not to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 Nawe, unu kakola echimali kaja mubwelu koleleki ebhikolwa byae bhibhokane ati byakolelwe kwa likusho lya Nyamuanga.
But he that doeth the truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are 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 land of Judaea; and there he remained with them, and baptized.
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 also was baptizing in AEnon, near Salim, because there was much water there; and they came, and were baptized.
24 Kwo kubha Yohana aliga achali okweswa mwibhoyelo.
For John was not yet thrown into prison.
25 Mbe mbabhambashanya abheigisibwa bha Yohana no Muyaudi ku malya gwo kwiyesha.
Then there arose a question on the part of John's disciples with a Jew about 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 was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou hast borne witness, behold, he baptizeth, and all men are going to him.
27 Yohana nabhasubya ati omunu atakutula kulamila chinu chona chona tali aguyanibwe okusoka mu lwile.
John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, unless it be given him from heaven.
28 Emwe abhene mwabhambalila kubha naika ati, 'anye nitali Kristo', nawe naikile ati, 'natumilwe imbele yae.'
Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I was sent before that man.
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.
He that hath the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. This my joy then hath become full.
30 Kumwiile okukula, anye kunyiile okukeya.
He must increase, but I must 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. He that is from the earth is earthly, and speaketh earthly things; he that cometh from heaven
32 nokugongwa, nawe atalio unu alamiye obhubhambasi bwae.
testifieth what he hath seen and heard; and no one receiveth his testimony.
33 Unu alamiye obhubhambasi bwae katao echibhalikisho kubha Nyamuanga ni we chimali.
He that hath 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 he whom God sent speaketh the words of God; for he giveth not the Spirit by measure.
35 Lata kamwenda Omwana na muyaye bhinu bhyona mumabhoko gaye.
The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
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 believeth in the Son hath everlasting life; and he that disobeyeth the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him. (aiōnios g166)
