Yuhana 8
1 Yesu wa ghana likup in Zaitun.
but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 Nin kwui dindin akuru ada nanya kutii nlira, anite vat da kitime; a tunna aso a dursuzo anite.
Early in the morning he returned to the Temple where many people gathered around him and he sat down and taught them.
3 Anan niyerte nin na Farisawa da nin mong uwani na iwa kifoghe nanya kulapi nfunu nin mong, iceoghe kitikmine.
The religious teachers and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught committing adultery and made her stand before everyone.
4 Inin woro Yesu ku. “Unan Dursuzu, uwani ulele, ikifogheari nanya kulapin nfunu, ima niyitan nsure.
They said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery.
5 Nene nanya duke, Musa na woro nari asa ti filiso imus nnit une; fe nworo iyaghari kiteneme?”
Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. What do you say?”
6 Iwa belli nani inan kifoghe nin tikanci. Yesu tunna a tumuno a su inyerte kutyen nin licin me.
They said this to try and trap Jesus so they could condemn him. But Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.
7 Na iwa li ubu nin tirighe, a fita a yissina a woro nani, “Ame ulenge na addi nin kulapi ba nanya mine, na amere cizin ufilughe nin litale.”
They kept on demanding an answer, so he stood up and told them, “Whichever one of you has never sinned may throw the first stone at her.”
8 Akurru atumuno tutung niyerte nin licin me kutyen.
Then he bent down again and went on writing on the ground.
9 Na inung lanza nani, itunna nyizu na lalarum, ucizunu nin kune udak unan ni maline. Ida malizina isuna Yesu ku nin usanme nin wani une na awa di kityek mine.
When they heard this they began to leave, one by one, starting with the oldest, leaving Jesus alone in the middle of the crowd with the woman still standing there.
10 Yesu fita aworo nwane, “Uwani, inung anan kifufe nde? Na umong mine nmolofi ba?”
Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Where are they? Didn't anybody stay to condemn you?”
11 A wor, “Ko unit urum, Cikilari.” Yesu woro, “Na meng wang nse fi nin kulapi ba, Canfi, ucizunu nene udu nbun, na uwa kuru uti kulapi ba.”
“No one did, sir,” she replied. “I don't condemn you either,” Jesus told her. “Go, and don't sin anymore.”
12 Yesu kuru asu uliru nin nanite aworo, “Menghari nkanang in yi; ulenge na a dofini na ama cinu nanya nsirti ba nani ama se nkanang nlai.”
Jesus spoke again to the people, telling them, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me you won't walk in darkness for you will have the life-giving light.”
13 A Farisawa woroghe, “Una ushaida litife; na ushaida fe kidegeneri ba.”
The Pharisees replied, “You can't be your own witness! What you say doesn't prove anything!”
14 Yesu kawa aworo nani, Andi ma nna ushaida litining, ushaida ning kidegenari. Meng yiru kikanga na nna nuzu ku, in yiru kikanga na ndin cinu udue, na anung dinin yiru kiti ka na inan nuzuku ba, sa kika na ndin cinu udue.
“Even if I am my own witness, my testimony is true,” Jesus told them, “for I know where I came from and where I'm going. But you don't know where I came from or where I'm going.
15 Anung din su ushara un yenju nyizi, meng din su umong ushara ba.
You judge in a typically human way, but I don't judge anyone.
16 Vat nani asa nsu ushara, ushara nighe kidegenari bara na ndi usanning ba ndi nin Cif ulenge na ana tuyi.
Even if I did judge, my judgment would be right because I am not doing this alone. The Father who sent me is with me.
17 Nanere nanya nduka mine ina yertin au ushaida nanit anwaba kidegenere.
Your own law states that the testimony of two witnesses is valid.
18 Menghari ame ulenge na ndin shaida litining, a ame Ucife na ana tuyi din nin ushaida litining.”
I am my own witness, and my other witness is my Father who sent me.”
19 I woroghe, “Uciffe din weri?” Yesu kawa nani, “Na iyiru menku sa Ucif nin ba; idafo ina yiri, iwa yiru Ucif nighe wang.”
“Where is your father?” they asked him. “You don't know me or my Father,” Jesus replied. “If you knew me then you would know my Father as well.”
20 Awa belin uliru une susut nin kiti in nyeshizu nikurfu ayita ndursuzu nin kiti nanya kutii nlira, ana umong nkifoghe ba, bara na kubi me wa di kusa daba.
Jesus explained this while he was teaching near the Temple treasury. Yet no one arrested him because his time had not yet come.
21 Akuru a woro nani, “Mma su ucin, ima piziri, inin kuzu nanya nalapi mine. Kiti kanga na nma du, na iwa sa idaku ba.”
Jesus told them again, “I'm leaving, and you'll search for me, but you'll die in your sin. You can't come where I'm going.”
22 A Yahudaw woro, “Ama molu litime, ame ulenge na aworo, 'kiti kanga na ndin cinu udue, anung wasa ida ba?”
The Jews wondered out loud, “Is he going to kill himself? Is that what he means when he says ‘You can't come where I'm going’?”
23 Yesu woro nani, 'Anung anan kadassari; Meng unan kitenari, Anung anan yi ulelere, Na meng unan le uyere ba.
Jesus told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 Bara nani, nworo minu, ima kuzu nanya nalapi mine. Andi na iyinna mere AME ba, ima kuzu nanya nalapi mine.”
That is why I told you that you'll die in your sins. For if you don't trust in me, the ‘I am,’ you'll die in your sins.”
25 Iworoghe nenge, “Feghari?” Yesu woro nani, “uliru urika na nna bellin minu nin cizine.
Then they asked him, “Who are you?” “Exactly who I told you I was from the beginning,” Jesus replied.
26 Ndi nin nimon gbardang na nma su uliru ku, nkuru nsu ushara ku kitene mine. Vat nani, ulenge na ana tuyi di kidegen; a imon ilenge na nna lanza kitime, imonere ndin bellu uyie.
“There's much I could say about you, and much I could condemn. But the one who sent me tells the truth, and what I'm saying to you here in this world is what I heard from him.”
27 Na iwa yinin nworu adin liru nanghinu liti Ncif ba.
They didn't understand that he was talking to them about the Father.
28 Yesu woro, “Asa i ghantina Usaun Nnit kitene kani, Ima nin yinnu MERE, ima yinnu tutung na ndi su imoimong in litining ba. Nafo na Ucif na duzsuzoi, ndin belu ilenge imone.
So Jesus explained to them: “When you have lifted up the Son of man then you'll know that I am the ‘I am,’ and that I do nothing of myself, but only say what the Father taught me.
29 Ulenge na ana tuyi di ligowe nin mi, ana ama suni ussaning ba, bara ndin su imon ilenge na idin puzughe liburi.”
The one who sent me is with me; he has not abandoned me, for I always do what pleases him.”
30 Kube na Yesu wa din bellu nleli ulirue, gbardang nanit wa yinnin nighe.
Many who heard Jesus say these things put their trust in him.
31 Yesu wa woro na Yahudawa alenge na iwa yinnin nighe, “Asa ileo ubun nanya nliru nighe, kidegenere anung nono katwa nighari;
Then Jesus said to those Jews who trusted in him, “If you follow my teaching then you really are my disciples.
32 Ima nin yinnu kidegene, kidegenere ma bunku minu utucu.”
You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
33 I kawa ghe, Arik kuwunun Ibrahimari na tisa su licin nacara nmong ba; inyizari uma woru, 'Ima se ubuntu iso fong?”
“We're descendants of Abraham! We've never been anyone's slaves,” they answered. “How can you say that we'll be set free?”
34 Yesu kawa nani, “Kidegenere ndin bellu minu, vat nlenge na ata kulapi, ame kucin kulapiari.
Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin.
A slave doesn't have a permanent place in the family, but the son is part of the family forever. (aiōn g165)
36 Andi usaune ma bunku minu, nanere wang ima se ubuntu.
If the Son sets you free, then you're truly free.
37 Nyiru anung kuwunun Ibrahimari; idin pizuru umoli, bara na uliru ninghe se kitin so nanya mine ba.
I know you're Abraham's descendants, yet you're trying to kill me because you refuse to accept my words.
38 Nbele imon ilenge in yene nin Cifning, anung ani din su imon ilenge na ina lanza kitin Cif mine.”
I'm telling you what the Father has revealed to me, while you do what your father told you.”
39 I kawa iworo, “Ucif bit Ibrahimari.” Yesu woro nani, Ndafo anung nonon Ibrahimari, iwa su katwan Ibrahime.
“Abraham is our father,” they answered. “If you really were children of Abraham, you'd do what Abraham did,” Jesus told them.
40 Vat nani, inani pizira imoli, unit ulenge na a belin minu kidegen kanga na a lanza kiti kutelle. Na Ibrahim nasu ilenge imone ba.
“But you are trying to kill me now, because I told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham would never have done that.
41 Idin su nitwa ncif minere.” I woroghe, “Na iwa maru nari nanya nfunu ba; tidi nin Cif urum, Kutelle.”
You're doing what your father does.” “Well we are not illegitimate,” they responded. “God alone is our father!”
42 Yesu woro nani, “Andi Kutelle Ucif minere, iwa yitu nin su ninghe, bara meng na nuzu kiti Kutellari nda; na nna dak bara litining ba, amere na tuyi.
Jesus replied, “If God really was your father, you would love me. I came from God and now I am here. The decision to come wasn't mine, but the one who sent me.
43 Iyaghari nta na i yinno uliru nighe ba? Bara na idi nin su ilanza uliru nighere ba.
Why can't you understand what I'm saying? It's because you refuse to hear my message!
44 Anung nonon cif minere, shaitan, inani din pizuru isu ntok imusun min cif mie. Ame unan molusu nanitari nworu ucizunue ana adi nin yissunu kitene kidegen ba, bara na kidegen di nanya me ba. Asa a belle kinu, asa asu dert nin yitu mere, bara ame unan kinuwari a Ucif kinu.
Your father is the devil, and you love to follow your father's evil desires. He was a murderer from the beginning. He never stood for the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies he reveals his true character, for he's a liar and the father of lies.
45 Vat nani, bara na ndin belu kidegene, na anunghe in yinna ning me ba.
So because I tell you the truth, you don't believe me!
46 Ghari nanya mine nseyi nin kulapi? Andi ndin bellu kidegen, iyaghari nta na iyinna nin mi ba?
Can any one of you prove that I'm guilty of sin? If I'm telling you the truth, why don't you believe me?
47 Ame ulenge na adi un Kutelle din lanzu uliru Kutelle; na anung din lanzu unin ba, bara anung anit Kutelleari ba.”
Anyone who belongs to God listens to what God says. The reason you don't listen is because you don't belong to God.”
48 A Yahudawa kawa i woroghe, “Tina belin kidegene au fe kunan Samariyaridi, tutung udi nin na gbergenu?
“Aren't we right to call you a Samaritan who is demon-possessed?” said the Jews.
49 Yesu kawa a woro, “Na meng di nin ku gbergenu ba; ama meng din ti Ucif ning gongong, anung ani na ita yi gongon ba.
“No, I don't have a demon,” Jesus replied. “I honor my Father, but you dishonor me.
50 Na meng din pizuru ngongon lit ning ba, unit urumari din pizuru akuru asu ushara.
I'm not here looking to glorify myself. But there is one who does this for me and who judges in my favor.
51 Kidegenere ndin bellu minu, asa umong lanza uliru nighe, asu katwa mun, na ama yenu ukul ba.” (aiōn g165)
I tell you the truth, anyone who follows my teaching will never die.” (aiōn g165)
52 A Yahudawa woroghe, “Nene tiyinno udinin kugbergenu. Ibrahim nin na anabawa na kuzu; fe unin woro, 'Asa umon lanza uliru nighe na aba yenu ukul ba.' (aiōn g165)
“Now we know you're demon-possessed,” said the Jews. “Abraham died, and the prophets did too, and you're telling us ‘anyone who follows my teaching will never die’! (aiōn g165)
53 Na Fe katin Ucif bite Ibrahime, na ana kuba, sa ukatinghe? A a anabawa wang na kuzu, Fe yira litife iyaghari?”
Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died, and the prophets died. Who do you think you are?”
54 Yesu kawa nani, aworo, “Asa nta liti ninghe ngongong, ngongong nighe di imon ba; Ucif nighari ulenge na ama ti ngongong- ame ulenge na anung woro Kutelle minere.
Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. But it is God himself who glorifies me, the one you claim, ‘He is our God.’
55 Anung pa na iyirughe ba, ame meng yirughe. Andi nma belle na nyirughe nma so nafo anughe, unan kinu. Vat nani, nyirughe, nmini din dortu uliru me.
You don't know him, but I know him. If I were to say, ‘I don't know him,’ I'd be a liar, just like you. But I do know him, and I do what he says.
56 Ucif mine Ibrahim wasu liburi libo ninyenu nwui nighe; awa yene unin, ayi poghe.”
Your father Abraham was delighted as he looked forward to see my coming, and was so happy when he saw it.”
57 A Yahudawa woroghe, “Na usa duru akus akut ataun ba, ama fe uni na yene Ibrahim kua?
The Jews replied, “You're not even fifty years old, and you've seen Abraham?”
58 Yesu woro nani, “kidegenere ndin bellu minu, a idutu sa umaru Ibarahim ku, MENG wa yita ku.”
“I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I am,” said Jesus.
59 I tunna i pila atala ima filusughe mun, Yesu tunna a nyeshe litime a nuzu nanya kutii nlire a nya.
At this they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus was hidden from them and he left the Temple.
