Yohana 5
1 Ikype waa a hu gon wa, igan u Yahudawa a he, u Yesu alu hi ni Urushalima.
After these things was a 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, at the sheepgate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.
3 Gbugbu ndji bi lilo, bi fyen, bi cbi, bi khwu kpa, ba gru ni maa.
In these lay a multitude of sick, blind, lame, withered, [awaiting 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 descended at a certain season in the pool and troubled the water. Whoever therefore first went in after the troubling of the water became well, whatever disease he laboured under.]
5 U ndji ri ahe kima wa'azi lo tie ise tra don tandra.
But there was a certain man there who had been suffering under his infirmity thirty and 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?
Jesus seeing this [man] lying [there], and knowing that he was [in that state] now a great length of time, says to him, Wouldest thou become well?
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 infirm [man] answered him, Sir, I have not a man, in order, when the water has been troubled, to cast me into the pool; but while I am coming another descends before me.
8 Yesu hla niwu, lunde, ban bubu kuru ni zren”
Jesus says to him, Arise, take up thy couch and walk.
9 Hihari Igu fe si, na ban bubu kuru ma na hi kpama. Nivi u Asabar ma.
And immediately the man became well, and took up his couch and walked: and on that day was 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 the healed [man], It is sabbath, it is not permitted thee to take up thy couch.
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 made me well, he said to me, Take up thy couch and walk.
12 U ba miyen, Ahi nahn hla tre ki wu, ban ni lu zren?
They asked him [therefore], Who is the man who said to thee, Take up thy couch 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 healed knew not who it was, for Jesus had slidden away, there being a crowd 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 these things Jesus finds him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art become well: sin no more, that something worse do not happen to thee.
15 Igu luhi na ka hla ni anabawa ba andi ahi Yesu mba a chu lilo rju ni wawu.
The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 Nitu ki, anabawa ba lu ni ti Yesu kyalala me nitu ti kpe ke ni vi u Asabar.
And for this the Jews persecuted Jesus [and sought to kill him], because he had done these things on sabbath.
17 Yesu sa ni bawu, “Itei mu asi tie ndu ye zizan, Imeme mi tie ndu'a.”
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto and I 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 therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he had not only violated 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.
Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself save whatever he sees the Father doing: for whatever things he does, these things 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 shews him all things which he himself does; and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may wonder.
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 even as the Father raises the dead and quickens [them], thus the Son also quickens whom he will:
22 Itie chi idio-ri ban na, na ka chuban no vivren.
for neither does the Father judge any one, but has given all judgment 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 honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He who honours not the Son, honours not the Father who has 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 unto you, that he that hears my word, and believes him that has sent me, has life eternal, and does not come into judgment, but is passed out of 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 unto you, that an hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that have heard 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 even as the Father has life in himself, so he has 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 has given him authority to execute judgment [also], because he is Son of man.
28 Na tie sisir na yi, iton ni ye iwa biwa ba he ni mebeh wawu ba wo lan tre ma
Wonder not at this, for an hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs 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 go forth; those that have practised good, to resurrection of life, and those that have done evil, to resurrection of judgment.
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 cannot do anything of myself; as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I do not seek my will, but the will of him that has sent me.
31 Mi tie shaida ni tumu kimu, shaida na hi u njanji na.
If I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is not true.
32 indji ri he iwa asi no shaida ni tumu, mi toh shaida iwa asi no ni tumu, ahi shaida u njanji.
It is another who bears witness concerning me, and I know that the witness which he bears concerning me is true.
33 Bika ton ba hi ni Yahaya, ani no shaida u njanji.
Ye have sent unto John, and he has borne witness 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 do not receive witness from man, but I say this that ye might 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 ye were willing for a season 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 the witness [that is] greater than [that] of John; for the works which the Father has given me that I should complete them, the works themselves which I do, bear witness 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 has sent me himself has borne witness concerning me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor have 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 ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he hath sent, him ye do not believe.
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)
Ye search the scriptures, for ye think that in them ye have life eternal, and they it is which bear witness concerning me; (aiōnios g166)
40 bina yo sonron me u ye ni mena wa bi fe viri na.
and ye will not come to me that ye might have life.
41 Mi na kpa gber san ni ndji na
I do not receive glory from men,
42 Mi toh bina he ni son Rji ni mi idri mbi na.
but I know you, that ye 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 am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will 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 ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and seek not the glory which [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] who accuses you, Moses, on whom ye trust;
46 Bina kpayenmen ni Musa, bina kpayenmen ni me, nitu wa a nhan me nitu mu.
for if ye had believed Moses, ye 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 ye do not believe his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
