Yohana 5
1 Ikype waa a hu gon wa, igan u Yahudawa a he, u Yesu alu hi ni Urushalima.
After this was the feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Nimi Urushalima whie ni nkontra nt'ma u yii maa he kima wa ba yo ndi Baitasda ni lme Larabawa waa a he ni nkontra bi nzre.
Now there is in Jerusalem, near the sheep-gate, a pool, called, in the Hebrew tongue, Bethesda, with five porches.
3 Gbugbu ndji bi lilo, bi fyen, bi cbi, bi khwu kpa, ba gru ni maa.
In these lay a great multitude of sick persons, blind, lame, withered, who waited for the moving of the water.
4 U maleku Bachi ata grji hi nda hi cu maa ni nton bari, u ndji wa a guci sa za ni maa ni nton wa maa si cu'a, ani fe don ni ko bi lilo riame wa ata lo'a.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and stirred the water. Then he who entered first after the motion of the water, was cured of whatever disease he had.
5 U ndji ri ahe kima wa'azi lo tie ise tra don tandra.
And a certain man was there, who had been sick thirty-eight years.
6 Wa Yesu a to ndi a kakru ni ki, u wa a kma toh ndi ndji a kru ni kii gbaa me nda hla niwu, “Wu son wu kpa sikpa?
When Jesus saw him lying, and knew that he had been already a long time in that condition, he said to him: Do you wish to be restored to health?
7 Yonde Mallam, mina he ni dio rina iwa ani ban me yo ni mi takpo ma wa ba chuwu ana mita lu ndi mi ri hi ni mi u ndiri ka tie gbla ri Kuchi mu.
The sick man answered him: Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred; but while I am coming, another goes down before me.
8 Yesu hla niwu, lunde, ban bubu kuru ni zren”
Jesus said to him: Arise, take up your bed and walk.
9 Hihari Igu fe si, na ban bubu kuru ma na hi kpama. Nivi u Asabar ma.
And the man was immediately restored to health; and he took up his bed and walked. And that day was the sabbath.
10 Yahudawa ba miyen Igu iwa ba chu lilo rju niwu, “Luwa a Asabar, ana bi ni ndu ban bubu kuru me na.”
The Jews, therefore, said to him that was cured: It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.
11 “I wa hla ni bawu ahi ndi wa a chu lilo rju ni mu'a, 'A tre ban bubu kuru me ni lu zren.'”
He answered them: He that restored me to health said to me, Take up your bed and walk.
12 U ba miyen, Ahi nahn hla tre ki wu, ban ni lu zren?
Then they asked him: Who is he that said to you, Take up your bed and walk?
13 Wawu indji wa ba chu lili niwu'a, ana toh indji iwa a chu lilo rju ni wu na, Yesu lunde hi kpama ni yayinbi nitu jumbu indji gyen klan ki niki.
But he that had been restored to health knew not who he was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, because a multitude was in the place.
14 Ni kogon niki, Yesu ka fe ni mi korji, na tre, toh mba, U fe si, nan lah tatre gan na, ni ndu meme ikperi iwa a lah zan iwayi ndu lah vu na.”
After this Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him: Behold, you have been restored to health; sin no more, lest some worse thing befall you.
15 Igu luhi na ka hla ni anabawa ba andi ahi Yesu mba a chu lilo rju ni wawu.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus that had restored him to health.
16 Nitu ki, anabawa ba lu ni ti Yesu kyalala me nitu ti kpe ke ni vi u Asabar.
And for this reason did the Jews persecute Jesus, and seek to kill him, because he had done these things on the sabbath.
17 Yesu sa ni bawu, “Itei mu asi tie ndu ye zizan, Imeme mi tie ndu'a.”
But Jesus answered them: My Father works till now, and I also work.
18 Nitu ki, Yahudawa ndi ba wu'u ana nitu iwa a ka hu doka u Asabar, kan grjin na, ala yo Irji tie Itie ma, na ban tu ni zrazra ni Irji.
For this reason, therefore, the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he had not only broken the sabbath, but also said that God was his own father, making himself equal with God.
19 Yesu ka sa ni bawu, “A njanji, anjanji, Ivren na ya tie ni ngrji ma na, se a toh Itie bubu tie, ikpe iwa Itie ni tie ivren anki me ivren ni tie.
Then Jesus answered and said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for whatever things he does, these also the Son does in like manner.
20 Niwa Itie'a ani son Ivren na zro ko ge wawu'u wandi ani tie, ani zro igbi bi rigran ma iwa ba zan wa yi'a ni ndu yi tie sisir.
For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may be astonished.
21 Na iwa itie ta bi que shimen na no re iviri ana ki me Ivren ani no iviri ni ko nhan iwa ani son'a.
For as the Father raises the dead, and makes them alive, so also the Son makes alive whom he will.
22 Itie chi idio-ri ban na, na ka chuban no vivren.
For the Father judges no one, but has given all judicial authority to the Son;
23 Ni ndu indi wawu ndu ba ni funtu ina iwa ba toh Itie'a ni funtu'a me. Indji wa ana toh Ivren ni funtu na ana toh Itie me ni funtu na iwa ton ye na.
that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father who sent him.
24 A njanji, anjanji, Indji wa a wo tre mu'a na kpa yenme ni Indji wa a ton me ye'a ahe ni viri hi ni tuntur kuma ana tie meme na ani vuque yaba hi ni viri. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily I say to you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has eternal life, and comes not into condemnation, but has passed from death into life. (aiōnios g166)
25 A njani, a njanji, mi hla ni yiwu iton ni ye, har me a yeye iwa ik'bon me ba ba wo lan tra Ivren Irji, bi wa ba wo ba nawo.
Verily, verily I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear, shall live.
26 Ni wa Itie a he ni viri ni wu a, ana ki me ano Ivren Iviri mi ma u tuma kima.
For as the Father has life in himself, so has he given to the Son also to have life in himself;
27 Itie a no Ivren son, tuma i wa ani ya ga tre (chu ban), nitu ahi wawuyi a Vren Ndji.
and he has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Na tie sisir na yi, iton ni ye iwa biwa ba he ni mebeh wawu ba wo lan tre ma
Be not astonished at this; for the hour is coming in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 na rju yei biwa ba tie ndindi ba lunde hi ni viri (re) biwa ba tie meme ba luhi ni fu ton (que).
and shall come forth; those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 Mi na ya tie kperi ni tu muna. Na wa mi wo'a, ana ki mi futon, futon mu a u adalci, ana ni son u tumu na, a tu Indji iwa a ton ye.
I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
31 Mi tie shaida ni tumu kimu, shaida na hi u njanji na.
If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not worthy of credit.
32 indji ri he iwa asi no shaida ni tumu, mi toh shaida iwa asi no ni tumu, ahi shaida u njanji.
There is another that testifies concerning me, and I know that the testimony which he testifies concerning me is worthy of credit.
33 Bika ton ba hi ni Yahaya, ani no shaida u njanji.
You sent to John, and he bore testimony to the truth.
34 Na kima, shaida iwa mi kpa ana shaida u indji na, mi hla biyi ni yiwu ni ndu jubu hi viri.
But I receive not testimony from man; yet I say these things that you may be saved.
35 Yahaya a hi fitila u ri, u kpan me bika kpayenmen ni yo si sonron ni kpan mani ton zah me.
He was the burning and shining lamp; and you were willing, for a time, to rejoice in his light.
36 U shaida wa mi he niwu a zan u Yahaya ni gbengbenle ni ndu wa Itie ni ndi mi tie'a, wato jiji bibiri indu bi wa mi si tie, biki ba si shaida mu andi, ahi Itie a ton me.
But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these very works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father has sent me.
37 Itie wa a ton me, wawu ui a shaida me. Bina tie bre wo lan toh ni na toh a he ni he nako quen ri.
And the Father, who sent me, has testified concerning me. You have, neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
38 Itra ana son ni yiwu ni mi dri bina, ni tu wa bi na kpayenmen ni Indji wa a ton Me yena.
And his word you have not remaining in you; for whom he has sent, him you believe not.
39 Biki kra viwu bla tra Rji ni ya bi ndi niki bi fe iviri u son tuntur, iwawu vuvu kima a shaida ni me, (aiōnios g166)
You search the scriptures, because in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify concerning me: (aiōnios g166)
40 bina yo sonron me u ye ni mena wa bi fe viri na.
and yet you refuse to come to me, that you may have life.
41 Mi na kpa gber san ni ndji na
I receive not honor from men.
42 Mi toh bina he ni son Rji ni mi idri mbi na.
But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.
43 Mi ye ni mi nde Itie Mu, u bina kpa Me na. U to iri ni ta lu ye ni mi nde ma, bi kpa wu.
I have come in my Father’s name, and you receive me not; if another should come in his own name, him you would receive.
44 A ni he mba bi kpa yenmen ni yo sonron, biyi wa bi kpa gber san ni kpa mbi, ni na kpa yenmen ni wa gber san iwa a rji ni Irji na?
How can you believe who receive honor one from another, and seek not the honor that comes from God alone?
45 Na yo imeren ni sonron mbi andi Mi tre yi koshishi na. Indji wa a tre yi a Musa, iwa bi yo sonron mbi niwu.
Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, Moses, in whom you trust.
46 Bina kpayenmen ni Musa, bina kpayenmen ni me, nitu wa a nhan me nitu mu.
For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me; for he wrote of me.
47 Bitana kpayenmen ni nhan ma na, bi ti ni he ba ni kpayenmen ni lan tre mu?
But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe my words?
