Yohani 5
1 Pambele uYesu akaluta kulikaaja ilya Yelusalemu ku kikulukulu ikya Vayahudi.
After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Mu likaaja ilio pweghulyale umulyango um'baha ghuno ghukatambuluagha, mulyango ghwa ng'holo, piipi nu mulyango ughuo pwelilyale ililamba lino munjovele ija Kiebulania likatambulwagha Bethzatha, mulubale mulilamba ilio pwefilyale ifibalasa fihano ifyeleefu.
Now in Jerusalem near the sheep-market there is a public bath which in Hebrew is named Beth-zatha. It has five doorways.
3 Mu lusulua ulwa fibalasa ifio valyaghonile avatamu vinga, avabofu amaaso, avalema amaghulu, na vanya liteela. (Vingilila: Amasio agha kadebe aka 3 naghivoneka mu malembe amanofu amakuulu. “Vakaghulagha amalenga ghatimbusivue.”)
In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.
4 Mu uluo, juno akavisagha ghwa kwasia kukwingila pano amalenga ghatimbwike, alyale isooka inhamu jaake.
5 Lino palilamba pala pwealyale umuunhu jumonga juno alyale ntamu amaaka fijigho fitatu na lekelakwoni.
One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.
6 UYesu akamwagha umuunhu ujuo aghonile pala alyakagwile kuuti umuunhu ujuo inhamu jaake ja maaka minga, akamposia akati, “Asi ghulonda kusooka?”
When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?
7 Untamu jula akamwamula akati, “Ghwe Ntwa, amalenga ghangatimbusivue, nkwale umuunhu ughwa kumbiika mu lilamba. Pano nilonda kukwingila mu lilamba ye nivonagha umuunhu ujunge anhaliile pikwingila.”
The ill man said in answer, Sir, I have nobody to put me into the bath when the water is moving; and while I am on the way down some other person gets in before me.
8 Pe pano uYesu akam'buula akati, “Ima veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha.”
Jesus said to him, Get up, take your bed and go.
9 Pala pala umuunhu jula akasooka, akaveghala iliteefu lyake, akavuuka iluta. Ikighono ikio jaale Sabato.
And the man became well straight away, and took up his bed and went. Now that day was the Sabbath.
10 Pe aVayahudi vakam'buula umuunhu jula juno asokile vakati, “Umusyughu kighono kya Sabato, indaghilo na sikwitikisia kupiinda iliteefu.”
So the Jews said to the man who had been made well, It is the Sabbath; and it is against the law for you to take up your bed.
11 Neke umuunhu jula akavamula akati, “Umuunhu juno asoosisie ghwe mwene ambulile kuuti, 'Veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha.”
He said to them, But he who made me well, said to me, Take up your bed and go.
12 Vakamposia kange vakati, “Ghwe veeni juno akuvulile kuuti 'Veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha?”
Then they put to him the question: Who is the man who said to you, Take it up and go?
13 Neke umuunhu jula naalyammanyile juno ansosisie ulwakuva uYesu alyavukile kisyefu. Ulwakuva avaanu valyale vinga.
Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.
14 Pambele uYesu akamwagha umuunhu jula munyumba inyimike ija kufunyila, akambuula akati, “Lolagha lino usokile! “Nungavombaghe inyivi kange nave ghuvomba lukukwagha ulutalamu ulukome kukila ulwa kwanda.”
After a time Jesus came across him in the Temple and said to him, See, you are well and strong; do no more sin for fear a worse thing comes to you.
15 Umuunhu jula akavuuka pala akaluta kukuvavuula aVayahudi kuuti juno ansosisie ghwe Yesu.
The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 Pepano, vwimila amasio aghuo aVayahudi vakampumwisie uYesu, ulwakuva alyavombile isio mu kighono ikya Sabato.
And for this reason the Jews were turned against Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 Neke uYesu akavavuula akati, “UNhaata ghwango ivomba imbombo ifighono fyoni, na juune nivomba imbombo ifighono fyoni.”
But his answer was: My Father is still working even now, and so I am working.
18 Vwimila uluo aVayahudi vakava vighina kulonda isila ija kum'buda uYesu vakalonda kukum'buda ulwakuva vakatisagha adenyile ululaghilo lwa kighono ikya Sabati, kange ijova kuuti, uNguluve ghwe viise, kange ikuviika kuuti aling'hiine nu Nguluve.
For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.
19 UYesu akavavuula akati, “Kyang'haani nikuvavuula une ne mwanaake nanivomba lumonga vwimila amasaaghe ghango, looli nivomba si sino nikumwagha uNhaata ivomba, nijova uluo, ulwakuva sino ivomba uNhaata se sino najune ne mwanaake nivoomba.
So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.
20 UNhaata anganile une ne mwanaake, ikuhofia sooni sino ivomba umwene, kange ilikuhufia une imbombo sino ilonda nivombe, imbombo imbaha kukila isio, kuuti pe mudeghe fiijo.
For the Father has love for the Son and lets him see everything which he does: and he will let him see greater works than these so that you may be full of wonder.
21 Ndavule uNhaata vule ikuvasyusia avafue na kukuvapeela uvwumi, fye enendiiki na juune nikuvapeela uvwumi, vano nilonda kukuvapeela.
In the same way, as the Father gives life to the dead, even so the Son gives life to those to whom he is pleased to give it.
22 Ulwakuva uNhaata naihigha muunhu, looli ampeliile umwanake uvutavulilua uvwa kuhigha,
The Father is not the judge of men, but he has given all decisions into the hands of the Son;
23 Kuuti avaanhu vooni vamwoghopaghe ndavule vikumwoghopa umwene. Umuunhu juno naikumwoghopa umwanake naikumwoghopa uNhata juno ansung'hile.
So that all men may give honour to the Son even as they give honour to the Father. He who gives no honour to the Son gives no honour to the Father who sent him.
24 Kyang'haani nikuvavuula, umuunhu juno ipulika amasio ghango na kukumwitika uNguluve juno asung'hile ali nu vwumi uvwa fighono fyoni. Kange nailihighua. Looli ujuo akilile uvufue na kukwingila ku vwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila. (aiōnios g166)
Truly I say to you, The man whose ears are open to my word and who has faith in him who sent me, has eternal life; he will not be judged, but has come from death into life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Kyang'haani nikuvavuula, unsiki ghukwisa, kange ghufikile, avafue vilipulika, viliiva nu vwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila.
Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.
26 Nijo uluo ulwakuva ndavule uNhaata vule ali ni ngufu isa kumpeela umuunhu uvwumi uvwa kuvisila kusila, najuune amheliile ingufu isa kuvapeela avaanhu uvwumi uvuo.
For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given to the Son to have life in himself.
27 Kange, amheliile uvtavulilua uvwa kuhigha avaanhu, ulwakuva une nili, Mwana ghwa Muunhu.
And he has given him authority to be judge because he is the Son of man.
28 Namungadeghaghe amasio aghuo, ulwakuva ghukwisa unsiki ghuno avafue vooni vilipulika ing'hemeelo jaango.
Do not be surprised at this: for the time is coming when his voice will come to all who are in the place of the dead,
29 Avafue vilisyuka: vano vavombagha inofu viiva nu vwumi uvwa fighono fyoni, vano vavombagha uvuhosi vilihighua.
And they will come out; those who have done good, into the new life; and those who have done evil, to be judged.
30 UYesu akafijovagha akati une nanivomba kimonga vwimila amasaaghe ghango, une nihigha avaanhu ndavule ikumbuula uNhata. Nihigha mu vwakyang'haani, ulwakuva nanivomba muvughane vwango, looli mu vughane vwa Nguluve juno asung'hile.
Of myself I am unable to do anything: as the voice comes to me so I give a decision: and my decision is right because I have no desire to do what is pleasing to myself, but only what is pleasing to him who sent me.
31 Nave une nikujoleka juune, uvwolesi vwango navwale vuuva vwa kyang'haani.
If I gave witness about myself, my witness would not be true.
32 Looli kwale ujunge juno ikwoleka imhola sango na juune nikagwile kuuti sino ikwoleka vwimila une sa kyang'haani.
There is another who gives witness about me and I am certain that the witness he gives about me is true.
33 Umue mulyasung'hile avaanhu kwa Yohani umwofughi, ghwope alyavoliike isa kyang'haani vwimila une.
You sent to John and he gave true witness.
34 Neke une nanihuviila sino vikwoleka avaanhu, ulwene nijova isi kuuti mukave uvupoki.
But I have no need of a man's witness: I only say these things so that you may have salvation.
35 UYohani umwofughi alyahufisie uvwakyang'haani kulyumue, ndavule itaala vule jiviika na kumulika mung'hiisi, umue mulyahovwike vwimila uluo ku nsiki ndebe.
He was a burning and shining light, and for a time you were ready to be happy in his light.
36 Neke une nili ni mhola sino sikunyoleka fiijo kukila sino alyoliike uYohani, ulwakuva imbombo sino nivomba, sino alyamheliile uNhaata kuuti nivombe, se sino sikunyoleka kuuti uNhaata juno asung'hile.
But the witness which I have is greater than that of John: the work which the Father has given me to do, the very work which I am now doing, is a witness that the Father has sent me.
37 Ghope uNhaata juno asunghile une, ikwoleka imhola sango. Umue namughelile nambe lusiku kupulika ilisio lyake, kukumwagha vule alivuo unsiki ghwoni.
And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.
38 Kange imbulanisio saake nasili nkate mulyumue ulwakuva namukumwitika juno asung'hilue kulyumue.
And you have not kept his word in your hearts, because you have not faith in him whom he has sent.
39 Mughimba kulolesia mu malembe amimike, ulwakuva musagha kuti nkate umuo mukava uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila, amalembe aghu ghikunyoleka une. (aiōnios g166)
You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me. (aiōnios g166)
40 Neke umue namulonda kukwisa kulyune, kuuti mu pelue uvwumi uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila.
And still you have no desire to come to me so that you may have life.
41 Une nanihuviila avaanhu vanginie,
I do not take honour from men;
42 neke nikagwile kuuti nkate mulyumue namuli nu lughano lwa Nguluve.
But I have knowledge of you that you have no love for God in your hearts.
43 Une nisile mu vutavulilua uvwa Nhaata ghwango, umue namukunyupila. Neke ujunge angiise mu vutavulilua vwake jujuo, mwale mukumwupila.
I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.
44 Lino ndepoonu mukunyitika ndaani umue mwe vano mulonda kughinisivua na vaanhu, namulonda kughinisivua nu Nguluve juno ali jumo mwene?
How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?
45 Mulekaghe piiti ue nilikuvatwala kwa Nhaata avahighe. UMoose ghwe juno ilikuvatwala muhighue ulwakuva ghwe juno mukumhuviila.
Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father: the one who says things against you is Moses, on whom you put your hopes.
46 Musava mukumwitika uMoose, ngale mukunyitika na juune, ulwakuva alyalembile imhola sango.
If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.
47 Neke nave namukwitika amasio ghano alyalembile uMoose, ndepoonu mukwitika ndaani amasio ghango?
If you have no belief in his writings, how will you have belief in my words?
