Yohani 7
1 Pa aga, Yesu kaweriti kankugendagenda kulaa ku Galilaya. Kafiriti ndiri kugendagenda kumkowa wa Yudeya toziya wakulu wa Wayawudi waweriti wankufira kumlaga.
After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jewish leaders sought to kill him.
2 Shipindi sha msambu gwa Wayawudi gwa visasa guweriti gwapakwegera.
Now the Jewish festival, the Feast of Tabernacles, was near.
3 Su, walongu wakuwi wamgambira, “Guwuki panu gugendi Yudeya, su wafundwa waku wawoni vitwatira vyagutenda.
So his brothers said to him, "Depart from here, and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works that you are doing.
4 Muntu katenda ndiri vitwatira kwa kubada pakafira kamanikani kwa wantu. Toziya gutenda vitwatira avi, guleki wantu wa pasipanu poseri wavimani kuusu gwenga.”
For no one does anything in secret when he himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world."
5 Ata walongu wakuwi wamjimira ndiri.
For even his brothers did not believe in him.
6 Yesu kawagambira, “Shipindi shangu shashifaa shankali kusoka. Mwenga kila shipindi shifaa.
Jesus therefore said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
7 Wantu wa pasipanu hapeni wizi kuwakalalira mwenga, neni wankalalira toziya neni ntakula kwawu kuwera matendu gakuwi gadoda.
The world cannot hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
8 Mwenga mgendi kumsambu. Neni hapeni ng'endi ku msambu aku vinu, toziya saa yaneni yaifaa yankali kusoka.”
You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled."
9 Katakuliti aga, shakapanu kendereyiti kulikala Galilaya.
After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee.
10 Walongu wakuwi pawagenditi kala kumsambu, Yesu kagenditi viraa, kumbiti kagenditi ndiri pawamlola ira kagenditi kwa kulififa.
But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
11 Wakulu wa Wayawudi waweriti wankumsakula ku msambu aku. Womberi wakosiya, “Ka koshi?”
The Jewish leaders therefore sought him at the feast, and said, "Where is he?"
12 Kuweriti mapwepweziyu nentu kuusu Yesu mulipinga lya wantu. Wamonga watakuliti, “Yesu ndo muntu muheri.” Na wamonga watakuliti, “Ndala! Kankuwapayira wantu.”
There was much murmuring among the crowds concerning him. Some said, "He is a good man." But others said, "Not so, but he leads the crowd astray."
13 Kumbiti kwahera muntu yakatakuliti kuusu Yesu paweru, toziya waweriti wankuwatira wakulu wa Shiyawudi.
Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jewish leaders.
14 Msambu agu pagusokiti pakati na kumalirika, Yesu pakagenditi ku Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, kanjiti kufunda.
But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 Wakulu wa Shiyawudi walikangashiti nentu, walongiti, “Iwera hashi muntu ayu kerewa nentu, nayomberi kagenditi ndiri kushuli?”
Then the Jewish leaders were astonished, saying, "How does this man know such writings, having never been educated?"
16 Yesu kawankula, “Shilii shanfunda shilawa kwaneni ndiri, ira shilawa kwa Mlungu, ndo mweni yakantumiti.
Jesus therefore answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.
17 Muntu yakafira kutenda galii gagafira Mlungu, haguvimani handa mafundu gangu galawa kwa Mlungu, ama neni nfunda kwa uwezu wangu namweni.
If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.
18 Muntu yakatakula kwa uwezu wakuwi mweni, kankusakula uzyumi wakuwi mweni. Kumbiti ulii yakasakula uzyumi wa ulii yakantumiti, ayu ndo mwaminika na mngati mwakuwi kwahera ufyangu woseri.
He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 Hashi, Musa kakupanana ndiri Lilagaliru? Ata hangu, kwahera ata yumu gwenu yakalijimila Lilagaliru. Hashi, mfira mndagi?”
Did not Moses give you the Law, and yet none of you keeps the Law? Why do you seek to kill me?"
20 Lipinga lya wantu limwankula, “Gwenga gwana shamshera! Gani kafira kukulaga?”
The crowd answered, "You have a demon. Who seeks to kill you?"
21 Yesu kawankula, “Kwana liuzauza limu lyantenditi, namwenga mlikangashiti.
Jesus answered them, "I did one work, and you are all amazed.
22 Musa kawalagaliriti mwenga muwayingiziyi jandu wana wenu, shitiba ashi sha Musa ndiri ira wambuyi wenu ndo wanjiti kushitenda shitiba ashi na mumwingiziya jandu mwana mulishaka lya Kwoyera.
Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.
23 Handa pamumwingiziya mwana jandu mulishaka lya Kwoyera su mleka ndiri Lilagaliru lya Musa, iwera hashi munkalalira neni toziya numponiziya muntu mulishaka lya Kwoyera?
If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the Law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?
24 Mleki kutoza kwa kunja hera, mtozi kwa shipimu sha teratera.”
Do not judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment."
25 Wantu wamu wa Yerusalemu watakuliti, “Ndo ayu ndiri, muntu yawamsakula wamlagi?
Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, "Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
26 Mloli! Kawagambira pota na kufifa, womberi watakula ndiri shintu shoseri kuusu yomberi! Hashi, iwezekana kuwera wakulu wavimana nakaka kuwera muntu ayu ndo Kristu?
Look, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ?
27 Kumbiti Kristu pakaweriti kankwiza, kwahera muntu yoseri yakavimaniti kuwera Kristu hakalawili koshi, kumbiti tuvimana kuwera muntu ayu kwakalawira!”
However we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from."
28 Yesu pakaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, yomberi katakuliti kwa liziwu, “Mumana neni na muvimana kwanawa? Niza ndiri kwa uwezu wangu mweni. Ulii yakantumiti ndo mwaminika nentu, mwenga mumana ndiri,
Jesus therefore called out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you do not know.
29 Kumbiti neni numumana, toziya ndawa kwakuwi, ndo mweni yakantumiti.”
I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me."
30 Womberi wafiliti kumkamula Yesu, kumbiti kwahera muntu yakaweza kumbata yomberi toziya saa yakuwi yankali kusoka.
They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
31 Wantu wavuwa mulipinga wamjimiriti na walonga, “Kristu pakiza hakatendi mauzauza nentu kuliku aga gakatenditi muntu ayu?”
But many in the crowd believed in him. They said, "When the Christ comes, he won't do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?"
32 Mafalisayu wapikiniriti wantu pawapwepa visoweru avi kuusu Yesu. Su womberi pamuhera na watambika wakulu wa Numba ya Mlungu wawatumiti wanjagila wambati Yesu.
The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
33 Yesu katakula, “Nankali namwenga kwa shipindi shididini, su hanumugenderi ulii yakantumiti.
Then Jesus said, "I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
34 Hamunsakuli kumbiti hapeni mumoni, toziya hapeni mwizi pahala palii panwera.”
You will seek me, but won't find; and where I am, you cannot come."
35 Wakulu wa Shiyawudi walitakuziana weni, “Muntu ayu hakagendi koshi ndo peni hapeni tumpati? Hakagendi kwa lushi zya Wagiriki ndo peni wantu wetu Wayawudi pawalikala na hakawafundi Wagiriki?
The Jewish leaders therefore said among themselves, "Where will this man go that we won't find him? Will he go to the Diaspora among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
36 Kamanisha shishi pakatakula, ‘Hatumsakuli kumbiti hapeni tumwoni na palii pahala pakawera hapeni tuwezi kusoka?’”
What is this word that he said, 'You will seek me, but won't find; and where I am, you cannot come'?"
37 Lishaka lya kupelera lya msambu agu liweriti lishaka likulu. Yesu kagolokiti na kutakula kwa liziwu likulu, “Yakayumuluwa, kizi kwaneni,
Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.
38 na yoseri yakanjimira neni kalandi. Gambira Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalembwa, ‘Yakanjimira neni lushemba lwa mashi ga ukomu haganyiririki kulawa mumoyu mwakuwi.’”
He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water."
39 Yesu katakuliti aga kuusu Rohu, ndo mweni yawamjimira yomberi hawamuwanki. Shipindi shilii, Rohu Mnanagala kaweriti kankali kusoka toziya Yesu kaweriti kankali kukwiswa.
But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
40 Wantu wamu pakati pa lipinga lilii wapikiniriti visoweru avi, watakula, “Nakaka muntu ayu ndo ulii mbuyi gwa Mlungu!”
Some of the crowd therefore, when they heard these words, said, "This is truly the Prophet."
41 Wamonga watakula, “Ayu ndo Kristu!” Kumbiti wamonga watakuliti, “Kristu hapeni kizi kulawa ku Galilaya!
Others said, "This is the Christ." But some said, "What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Malembu Mananagala galembwiti hangu kuwera Kristu hakaweri mushiyiwuku sha Mfalumi Dawudi na hakayiwuki ku Betirehemu, lushi lyakalikaliti Dawudi.”
Hasn't the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?"
43 Su, kulawiriti malekaniru kuusu yomberi pakati palipinga lilii lya wantu.
So there arose a division in the crowd because of him.
44 Wantu wamu wafiriti kumbata Yesu, kumbuti kwahera yakajeriti kumbata.
Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.
45 Wanjagila pawawuyiti kwa Watambika wakulu na Mafalisayu, womberi wawakosiya, “Iwera hashi mumjega ndiri Yesu?”
The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, "Why did you not bring him?"
46 Wanjagila wawankula, “Kwahera muntu yakapatiti nakamu kutakula gambira muntu ayu ntambu yakatakuliti!”
The officers answered, "No man ever spoke like this man."
47 Mafalisayu wawakosiya, “Hashi na mwenga wakuzyangani viraa?
The Pharisees therefore answered them, "You are not also led astray, are you?
48 Hashi, muwoniti kala yumu gwa wakulu wa wantu, ama yumu gwa Mafalisayu yakamjimiriti?
Have any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?
49 Lipinga ali lya wantu livimana ndiri Lilagaliru lya Musa, lipangirwa!”
But this crowd that does not know the Law is accursed."
50 Yumu gwa Mafalisayu kaweriti Nikodemu ndo mweni pakwanjira paliya kamgenderiti Yesu. Su, kawagambiriti womberi,
Nicodemus (he who came to him before, being one of them) said to them,
51 “Lilagaliru lyetu liweza ndiri kumtoza muntu pamberi pa kumpikinira kwanja na kuvimana shakatenda”
"Does our Law judge a man, unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?"
52 Womberi wamwankula, “Hashi, gwenga viraa gulawira Galilaya? Su kagabetuli Malembu Mananagala, nagwenga haguwoni kuwera Galilaya hapeni kalawiri mbuyi gwa Mlungu!”
They answered him, "Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet comes from Galilee."
53 Kila muntu kagenditi ukaya.
Then everyone went to his own house,
