Yohana 10
1 Njanji, njanji, mi hla yiwu, indji wa ana ri zu ni gontra hi ni gran tan ba ba na, na hon hu igon ri, indji mba a ndji u yibi na ni kri ni kon.
AMEN, amen, I say to you, Whosoever entereth not by the door into the fold of the flock, but ascendeth by another place, he is a thief and a robber.
2 Indji wa ari zu ko gon tra ahi indji u krju tanba.
But he who entereth by the door, he is the shepherd of the flock.
3 Indji u gben a bu'u gon tra niwu. Itanba ba ba wo tre ma, ani yo tanba ba ni nde mba, na nji ba hi kora.
And to him the keeper of the gate openeth the gate, and the flock heareth his voice, and his sheep he calleth by their names, and he leadeth them forth;
4 Ani ta nji ba hi kora, ani guci u tanba ba ba hu nitu wa ba to tre ma.
and when his flock hath gone forth, he goeth before it, and his sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
5 Bana hu indji u tsri na, se ba kulu ni wa bana to itre ma na.”
But after a stranger the flock goeth not, but it fleeth from him; for it knoweth not the voice of a stranger.
6 Yesu tre bawu ni misali yi, u ba na to tu tre wa asi hla ni bawu na.
This parable spake Jeshu to them, but they knew not what he said with them.
7 Yesu hla bawu ngari ndi, njanji, njanji, mi hla yiwu, ahi meyi mi inkon tra tanba ba.
Jeshu saith to them again, Amen, amen, I say to you, I am the gate of the flock;
8 Biwa ba ye guci ni mu'a wawu mba wu ba bi yibi ni bi kri ni nokn, u itanba ba bana wo bana.
and all those who have come were thieves and robbers, but the flock heard them not.
9 Ime yi mi gon tra, indji wa ari zu niki ni nkon mu, ani nawo, ani hi na rju na fe bubu u ri.
I am the gate; by me if any man enter, he shall live and shall come in, and go out, and find pasture.
10 Indji u yibi na ya yena nitu wa a yibi, a wu na su indji tu. Mi ye ni ndu ba fe re (iviri) na fe re (iviri) u babran.
The thief cometh not but to steal and to kill and destroy: I am come that they may have life, and that which is more.
11 Ime yi mi indji u krju ndindima. Indji u krju ndindi ma ani ka re (iviri) ma no nitu tanba ma.
I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd his life layeth down for his flock.
12 Indji wa ahi vren u ton ndu'a, ana indji u krju na, wa na indji u tanba ba na, ani ta to ya niye, ani kaba chuwo na tsutsu, u iya ka vu ba na vraba ti nkankan.
The hireling who is not the shepherd, and whose the sheep are not, when he seeth the wolf coming, leaveth the flock and fleeth; and the wolf cometh ravaging and destroying the flock.
13 A tsutsu nitu wa ahi indji u tie ndu u kenle mba wana ri niwu ni sonron na.
But the hireling fleeth because he is an hireling, and careth not for the flock.
14 A me hi me yi mi indji u krju ndindi ma, mi toh bimu, bimu ba toh me.
I am the good shepherd, and know my own, and am known of my own.
15 Iti'a ato Me, Ime mi toh Iti'a, mi ka re (iviri) mu no nitu tanba ba.
As my Father knoweth me (and) I know my Father, and my life I lay down for the flock.
16 Me he ni tanba bari wa bana u gran yi na. Dole dun mi nji ba ye ngame, u ba wo lan mu u ntma ba ba he ni bubu rhirhi nda he ni ndji u krju ba rhirhi.
But I have other sheep also which are not of this fold; and these also it behoveth me to bring, and they will hear my voice, and all shall become one flock and one shepherd.
17 Ni tu kima, Iti'a ni son me, mi no re mu (iviri) ni ndu mi la ffe ngari.
On this account my Father loveth me, because I lay down my life again to take it.
18 Idiori na ya ban ni me na, ime mi no ni tumu, mi he ni gbengbenle u no, ni he ni gbengbenle u bawu ngari. Mi kpa umurni rji ni Timu.”
No man taketh it away from me, but I lay it down from my will; for I am able to lay it down, and I am able to take it again; for this commandment have I received from my Father.
19 Ga kpa la lunde ni mi tsutsu Yahudawa nitu lan biyi.
And there was again a division among the Jihudoyee because of his words:
20 Gbugbu'u ni mi mba ba tre, aheni brji, ahi indji u siran ngari ani tunge bisi wowu?”
and many of them said, He has a devil, and is altogether insane, why do you hear him?
21 Bari ba tre, biyi bana lan tre biwa ba he ni brji na. Ka indji u brji ni ya bu'u shishi indji u fyen?
But others said, These words are not of a demoniac: how can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
22 U ton igan Tsakakewa (Tsiratsira) ni Urushelima a ye tsira'a.
IT was the feast of the renovation at Urishlem,
23 Ana iton u ma lu, u Yesu zren si hi ni mi hekeli Suleimanu, wa ba me mu me ziye'a.
and it was winter. And Jeshu walked in the temple in the portico of Shelumun.
24 U yahudawa ba lu hrawu kagon na miyen, “Ani tan mba u chuta chuwo ni mi mire.
And the Jihudoyee surrounded him, saying to him, How long takest thou our souls? If thou art the Meshicha, tell us openly.
25 Yesu hla bawu, “Mi hla ni yiwu, u bina kpa yenmen na, indu wa mi si tie ni mi nde Bachi, ba tsoro igban mu.
Jeshu answered and said to them, I have told you, and you believe not. The works that I do in the name of my Father, these witness for me.
26 Naki bina kpayenme na nitu wa bina tamba mu na.
But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep, (even) as I told you.
27 Itanba mu ba wo me, mi to ba, ba hu me.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;
29 Iti mu, iwa Ane ba, a zan ndji nikon wawu, idiori na ya u kpa ni wo Ti'a na.
For my Father who gave them to me than all is greater; and no man from the hand of my Father can snatch them.
30 Ime ni Iti'a ki riri me.”
I and my Father are One.
31 U Yahudawa ba la vu tita ndi ba ta.
And again the Jihudoyee took up stones to stone him.
32 Yesu sa bawu, “Mi tsoro yi indu bi babran ma rji ni Ti'a. Nitu iri ni mi indu'a bi ki tame?”
Jeshu saith to them, Many good works from my Father have I showed you: on account of which of these works do you stone me?
33 U Yahudawa ba sa niwu, “Ana nitu indu iri u ndindi ma mba ki si ta na. Ani tu kpande ti meme nitu. u indji ni kaban ni ban tume na Rji.
The Jihudoyee say to him, Not on account of the good works do we stone thee, but because thou blasphemest; thou, being a son of man, making thyself Aloha.
34 Yesu sa ni bawu, bana nha nha zi ni du itron bina, mitre, “Bi rji bi ka viri?”
Jeshu saith to them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are Alohee?
35 Ani ta yo ba Irji biwa itre Rji ye ni ba (bana ya karya na si na, )
If them he calleth Alohee, because with them was the word of Aloha, and the scripture cannot be loosed,
36 Bi si hla ni indji wa Iti a zi na ton ndu ni gbungbulu'a, u se latre, (kpa nde tie meme) nitu wa mi tre, Ime mi Vren Rji'a?
to him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world, say you, Thou blasphemest, because I have said to you, I am the Son of Aloha?
37 Mi ta na si tie indu u Timu na, bi ka na kpayenme ni me na.
And if I do not the works of my Father, believe me not;
38 Ide mi siti bika, u bi na kpa yenme me na, kpa yenme ni ndu ni to ni ndi Iti he ni me i mi he ni Ti.
but if I do, though you believe not me, the works believe, that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and (that) I (am) in the Father.
39 U ba tsi kpukpa ndi ba la vu ngari, iwa na bawo rju kado ni wo mba.
And they sought again to apprehend him; but he went forth from among their hands:
40 Wa hi kpama ni koshishi ni inne Urdun hi ni bubu wa Yahaya ta ti batisma ni sen'a. na ka son ni ki.
and he went beyond Jurdan, to the place where Juchanon at first had baptized, and was there.
41 Indji gbugbuwu ba ye niwu, “Njanji Yahaya na ti ba gban kperina (alamu) wawu ikpe wa Yahaya ta tre nitu gu yi'a ba njanji.
And many came to him, and said, Juchanon did not one sign; but every thing which Juchanon said concerning this man was true.
42 Indji gbugbuwu ba kpanynme niwu ni ki.
And many believed in him.
