Yohana 5

1 Ikype waa a hu gon wa, igan u Yahudawa a he, u Yesu alu hi ni Urushalima.

After these things there was the feast of the Jews, so 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 in Jerusalem, by the Sheep Gate, there is a pool called Bethesda, in Hebrew, which has five porches.

3 Gbugbu ndji bi lilo, bi fyen, bi cbi, bi khwu kpa, ba gru ni maa.

In them a large number of sick people were lying—blind, lame, paralyzed—waiting 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.

because an angel would go down from time to time into the pool and stir up the water—then the first one to get in after the stirring of the water became well of whatever disease that was holding him.

5 U ndji ri ahe kima wa'azi lo tie ise tra don tandra.

Now there was a certain man there who had been sick for 38 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?

Seeing this man lying there and knowing that he had already been sick a long time, Jesus says to him, “Do you want to get 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 sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to throw me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am coming another gets in before me.”

8 Yesu hla niwu, lunde, ban bubu kuru ni zren”

Jesus says to him, “Get up, pick up your pallet and walk!”

9 Hihari Igu fe si, na ban bubu kuru ma na hi kpama. Nivi u Asabar ma.

Immediately the man became well and picked up his pallet and started to walk!

10 Yahudawa ba miyen Igu iwa ba chu lilo rju niwu, “Luwa a Asabar, ana bi ni ndu ban bubu kuru me na.”

But that day was a Sabbath, so the Jews said to the one who had been healed: “It's the Sabbath! You aren't allowed to carry the pallet.”

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: “The one who made me well—He said to me, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk.’”

12 U ba miyen, Ahi nahn hla tre ki wu, ban ni lu zren?

So they asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your pallet 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 the man who was cured did not know who it was, because Jesus had disappeared, 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 found him in the temple and said to him: “See, you are well. Don't sin any more, so that something worse doesn't happen to you.”

15 Igu luhi na ka hla ni anabawa ba andi ahi Yesu mba a chu lilo rju ni wawu.

The man went off 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.

So because of this the Jews began persecuting Jesus and trying to kill Him, because He was doing 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, “Until now, my Father works, 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.

So because of this they wanted to kill Him all the more, because He was not only breaking the Sabbath but was even saying 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: “Most assuredly I say to you, the Son is not able to do anything from Himself, except something He sees the Father doing; because whatever things He does, precisely these the Son also does.

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 everything that He Himself is doing; and He will show Him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.

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.

Now just as the Father raises the dead and gives life, just so the Son also gives life to whom He wishes.

22 Itie chi idio-ri ban na, na ka chuban no vivren.

In fact the Father does not judge anyone but has committed all the judging 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.

so that all will honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor 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)

“Most assuredly I say to you that the one listening to my word and believing on Him who sent me has eternal life; he will not go into judging but has moved out of the death into the 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.

“Most assuredly I say to you that a time is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of the God, and those who listen will live.

26 Ni wa Itie a he ni viri ni wu a, ana ki me ano Ivren Iviri mi ma u tuma kima.

Because just as the Father has life in Himself, just so He gave 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.

furthermore He gave Him the authority to pass judgment, 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

Do not marvel at this, because a time is coming in which all those in the graves will 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 will come out—those who did good things into the resurrection of life, but those who practiced evil things into 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 am not able to do anything from myself. As I hear, I judge, and my judging is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the Father who sent me.

31 Mi tie shaida ni tumu kimu, shaida na hi u njanji na.

“If I testify about myself, my testimony is not valid.

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 who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony that He gives about me is true.

33 Bika ton ba hi ni Yahaya, ani no shaida u njanji.

You have sent to John and he has testified 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.

Yet I do not accept the testimony from a man; but I say these things so 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.

That man was a burning, shining lamp, and for a time you were willing to be glad 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 a greater testimony than John's, because the works that the Father gave me to complete—the very works that I am doing—they testify about 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.

“Further, the Father who sent me has Himself testified about me. You have neither heard His voice nor seen His form at any time.

38 Itra ana son ni yiwu ni mi dri bina, ni tu wa bi na kpayenmen ni Indji wa a ton Me yena.

Nor do you have His word abiding in you, because you do not believe on the very one whom He sent.

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 examine the Scriptures because in them you think you have eternal life, yet they are the very ones that testify about me. (aiōnios g166)

40 bina yo sonron me u ye ni mena wa bi fe viri na.

But you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.

41 Mi na kpa gber san ni ndji na

“I do not accept glory from people.

42 Mi toh bina he ni son Rji ni mi idri mbi na.

Rather I have come to know you, that you do not have 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 do not receive me; should another come in his own name, him you 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 you believe, who receive glory from men and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

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.

“Do not suppose that I will accuse you before the Father. Moses is the one who accuses you, on whom you have set your hope.

46 Bina kpayenmen ni Musa, bina kpayenmen ni me, nitu wa a nhan me nitu mu.

Because if you really believed Moses you would believe me, because he wrote about me.

47 Bitana kpayenmen ni nhan ma na, bi ti ni he ba ni kpayenmen ni lan tre mu?

But since you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my sayings?”
