yōhanaḥ 1
1 ādau vāda āsīt sa ca vāda īśvarēṇa sārdhamāsīt sa vādaḥ svayamīśvara ēva|
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 sa ādāvīśvarēṇa sahāsīt|
He was in the beginning with God.
3 tēna sarvvaṁ vastu sasr̥jē sarvvēṣu sr̥ṣṭavastuṣu kimapi vastu tēnāsr̥ṣṭaṁ nāsti|
All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
4 sa jīvanasyākāraḥ, tacca jīvanaṁ manuṣyāṇāṁ jyōtiḥ
In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
5 tajjyōtirandhakārē pracakāśē kintvandhakārastanna jagrāha|
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
6 yōhan nāmaka ēkō manuja īśvarēṇa prēṣayāñcakrē|
There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
7 tadvārā yathā sarvvē viśvasanti tadarthaṁ sa tajjyōtiṣi pramāṇaṁ dātuṁ sākṣisvarūpō bhūtvāgamat,
He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 sa svayaṁ tajjyōti rna kintu tajjyōtiṣi pramāṇaṁ dātumāgamat|
He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 jagatyāgatya yaḥ sarvvamanujēbhyō dīptiṁ dadāti tadēva satyajyōtiḥ|
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 sa yajjagadasr̥jat tanmadya ēva sa āsīt kintu jagatō lōkāstaṁ nājānan|
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
11 nijādhikāraṁ sa āgacchat kintu prajāstaṁ nāgr̥hlan|
He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
12 tathāpi yē yē tamagr̥hlan arthāt tasya nāmni vyaśvasan tēbhya īśvarasya putrā bhavitum adhikāram adadāt|
But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
13 tēṣāṁ janiḥ śōṇitānna śārīrikābhilāṣānna mānavānāmicchātō na kintvīśvarādabhavat|
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 sa vādō manuṣyarūpēṇāvatīryya satyatānugrahābhyāṁ paripūrṇaḥ san sārdham asmābhi rnyavasat tataḥ pituradvitīyaputrasya yōgyō yō mahimā taṁ mahimānaṁ tasyāpaśyāma|
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 tatō yōhanapi pracāryya sākṣyamidaṁ dattavān yō mama paścād āgamiṣyati sa mattō gurutaraḥ; yatō matpūrvvaṁ sa vidyamāna āsīt; yadartham ahaṁ sākṣyamidam adāṁ sa ēṣaḥ|
John testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
16 aparañca tasya pūrṇatāyā vayaṁ sarvvē kramaśaḥ kramaśōnugrahaṁ prāptāḥ|
For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
17 mūsādvārā vyavasthā dattā kintvanugrahaḥ satyatvañca yīśukhrīṣṭadvārā samupātiṣṭhatāṁ|
For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus (the) Messiah.
18 kōpi manuja īśvaraṁ kadāpi nāpaśyat kintu pituḥ krōḍasthō'dvitīyaḥ putrastaṁ prakāśayat|
No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
19 tvaṁ kaḥ? iti vākyaṁ prēṣṭuṁ yadā yihūdīyalōkā yājakān lēvilōkāṁśca yirūśālamō yōhanaḥ samīpē prēṣayāmāsuḥ,
And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
20 tadā sa svīkr̥tavān nāpahnūtavān nāham abhiṣikta ityaṅgīkr̥tavān|
And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Messiah."
21 tadā tē'pr̥cchan tarhi kō bhavān? kiṁ ēliyaḥ? sōvadat na; tatastē'pr̥cchan tarhi bhavān sa bhaviṣyadvādī? sōvadat nāhaṁ saḥ|
And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22 tadā tē'pr̥cchan tarhi bhavān kaḥ? vayaṁ gatvā prērakān tvayi kiṁ vakṣyāmaḥ? svasmin kiṁ vadasi?
They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
23 tadā sōvadat| paramēśasya panthānaṁ pariṣkuruta sarvvataḥ| itīdaṁ prāntarē vākyaṁ vadataḥ kasyacidravaḥ| kathāmimāṁ yasmin yiśayiyō bhaviṣyadvādī likhitavān sōham|
He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
24 yē prēṣitāstē phirūśilōkāḥ|
(Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
25 tadā tē'pr̥cchan yadi nābhiṣiktōsi ēliyōsi na sa bhaviṣyadvādyapi nāsi ca, tarhi lōkān majjayasi kutaḥ?
And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
26 tatō yōhan pratyavōcat, tōyē'haṁ majjayāmīti satyaṁ kintu yaṁ yūyaṁ na jānītha tādr̥śa ēkō janō yuṣmākaṁ madhya upatiṣṭhati|
John answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
27 sa matpaścād āgatōpi matpūrvvaṁ varttamāna āsīt tasya pādukābandhanaṁ mōcayitumapi nāhaṁ yōgyōsmi|
He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
28 yarddananadyāḥ pārasthabaithabārāyāṁ yasminsthānē yōhanamajjayat tasmina sthānē sarvvamētad aghaṭata|
These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 parē'hani yōhan svanikaṭamāgacchantaṁ yiśuṁ vilōkya prāvōcat jagataḥ pāpamōcakam īśvarasya mēṣaśāvakaṁ paśyata|
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
30 yō mama paścādāgamiṣyati sa mattō gurutaraḥ, yatō hētōrmatpūrvvaṁ sō'varttata yasminnahaṁ kathāmimāṁ kathitavān sa ēvāyaṁ|
This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
31 aparaṁ nāhamēnaṁ pratyabhijñātavān kintu isrāyēllōkā ēnaṁ yathā paricinvanti tadabhiprāyēṇāhaṁ jalē majjayitumāgaccham|
I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
32 punaśca yōhanaparamēkaṁ pramāṇaṁ datvā kathitavān vihāyasaḥ kapōtavad avatarantamātmānam asyōparyyavatiṣṭhantaṁ ca dr̥ṣṭavānaham|
And John testified, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 nāhamēnaṁ pratyabhijñātavān iti satyaṁ kintu yō jalē majjayituṁ māṁ prairayat sa ēvēmāṁ kathāmakathayat yasyōparyyātmānam avatarantam avatiṣṭhantañca drakṣayasi saēva pavitrē ātmani majjayiṣyati|
And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
34 avastannirīkṣyāyam īśvarasya tanaya iti pramāṇaṁ dadāmi|
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
35 parē'hani yōhan dvābhyāṁ śiṣyābhyāṁ sārddhēṁ tiṣṭhan
Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 yiśuṁ gacchantaṁ vilōkya gaditavān, īśvarasya mēṣaśāvakaṁ paśyataṁ|
and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
37 imāṁ kathāṁ śrutvā dvau śiṣyau yīśōḥ paścād īyatuḥ|
And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.
38 tatō yīśuḥ parāvr̥tya tau paścād āgacchantau dr̥ṣṭvā pr̥ṣṭavān yuvāṁ kiṁ gavēśayathaḥ? tāvapr̥cchatāṁ hē rabbi arthāt hē gurō bhavān kutra tiṣṭhati?
And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
39 tataḥ sōvādit ētya paśyataṁ| tatō divasasya tr̥tīyapraharasya gatatvāt tau taddinaṁ tasya saṅgē'sthātāṁ|
He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 yau dvau yōhanō vākyaṁ śrutvā yiśōḥ paścād āgamatāṁ tayōḥ śimōnpitarasya bhrātā āndriyaḥ
One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 sa itvā prathamaṁ nijasōdaraṁ śimōnaṁ sākṣātprāpya kathitavān vayaṁ khrīṣṭam arthāt abhiṣiktapuruṣaṁ sākṣātkr̥tavantaḥ|
He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Anointed One).
42 paścāt sa taṁ yiśōḥ samīpam ānayat| tadā yīśustaṁ dr̥ṣṭvāvadat tvaṁ yūnasaḥ putraḥ śimōn kintu tvannāmadhēyaṁ kaiphāḥ vā pitaraḥ arthāt prastarō bhaviṣyati|
He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is translated, Peter).
43 parē'hani yīśau gālīlaṁ gantuṁ niścitacētasi sati philipanāmānaṁ janaṁ sākṣātprāpyāvōcat mama paścād āgaccha|
On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me."
44 baitsaidānāmni yasmin grāmē pitarāndriyayōrvāsa āsīt tasmin grāmē tasya philipasya vasatirāsīt|
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 paścāt philipō nithanēlaṁ sākṣātprāpyāvadat mūsā vyavasthā granthē bhaviṣyadvādināṁ granthēṣu ca yasyākhyānaṁ likhitamāstē taṁ yūṣaphaḥ putraṁ nāsaratīyaṁ yīśuṁ sākṣād akārṣma vayaṁ|
Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
46 tadā nithanēl kathitavān nāsarannagarāta kiṁ kaściduttama utpantuṁ śaknōti? tataḥ philipō 'vōcat ētya paśya|
And Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47 aparañca yīśuḥ svasya samīpaṁ tam āgacchantaṁ dr̥ṣṭvā vyāhr̥tavān, paśyāyaṁ niṣkapaṭaḥ satya isrāyēllōkaḥ|
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
48 tataḥ sōvadad, bhavān māṁ kathaṁ pratyabhijānāti? yīśuravādīt philipasya āhvānāt pūrvvaṁ yadā tvamuḍumbarasya tarōrmūlē'sthāstadā tvāmadarśam|
Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
49 nithanēl acakathat, hē gurō bhavān nitāntam īśvarasya putrōsi, bhavān isrāyēlvaṁśasya rājā|
Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
50 tatō yīśu rvyāharat, tvāmuḍumbarasya pādapasya mūlē dr̥ṣṭavānāhaṁ mamaitasmādvākyāt kiṁ tvaṁ vyaśvasīḥ? ētasmādapyāścaryyāṇi kāryyāṇi drakṣyasi|
Jesus answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51 anyaccāvādīd yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi, itaḥ paraṁ mōcitē mēghadvārē tasmānmanujasūnunā īśvarasya dūtagaṇam avarōhantamārōhantañca drakṣyatha|
And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
