< Yohana 8 >

1 Yesu hi ni gbunlu Zaitun.
but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
2 Ni mbubele a ka ban ye ni hekeli, indji wawu'u ba kaban ye niwu, aye kuson na si tsoro ba.
Now very early in the morning, he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.
3 Se bi nha ni Farisawa ba nji Iwa wandi ba vu asi tie ngyungyu, u ba yo ni tsutsu mba.
Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
4 U ba tre niwu, Malan, Iwa yi ba vu ahe ni mi si ti ngyungyu.
they said to him, "Teacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act.
5 Ni du Musa, a tre ki ta bi indji bi ki, Iwu u tre nigen ni tuma?”
Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such. So what do you say?"
6 U ba tre naki ni ndu sa tre ni ndu ba fe ni ikpe wa ani kpa ndema tie meme (Ko latre), u Yesu sontu grji na si nha ni menme ni vren wo.
Now they said this to test him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.
7 U ba kamba na kri ti tutu bubu miyen, wa lukri ni ndide na hla bawu, “Indji ri ni mi biwa ato ana latre na, ka guci ta.
But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her."
8 A la sontu grji na nha ni vren woma.
Again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
9 Ba wo naki na lu shan rju ni yi yir ri ni ninkon, na ka Yesu don ni grjima, mba Iwa wa ba na yo ni tsutsu mba.
But when they heard it, they went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last, and he was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.
10 Yesu lu kir dinde na miyen, “Iwa, bi wa ba nha wu ba he ni tse? Idiori na nhau na?
Then Jesus, standing up, said to her, "Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?"
11 Wa hla ba diori, (Ubangiji), “Yesu tre, imeme mina nhawu na, hi na la latre ganna.
And she said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go, and sin no more."
12 Yesu tre niba ganri, andi, “I hi me yi mi kpan u gbungbulu, Indji iwa a hume ana tre ni bwuh na ama ani he ni kpan u re (iviri).”
Again, therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life."
13 Farisawa ba tre niwu, “U zi tre nitu ikpe wa wuto'a nmitu tume, ana njanji na.
The Pharisees therefore said to him, "You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
14 Yesu sa nibawu na hla, mi ti sheda tu mu me, ahi njanji, mi to iwurji wa mi rji ni wa mi hi'a, biyi kuko bina to wurji wa mi rji'a na, bina to wurji wa mi hi'a na.
Jesus answered them, "Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you do not know where I came from, or where I am going.
15 Bi tron u son tu, ime na tron to ni diori na.
You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.
16 Ko mina tron ni diori me, itron mu mu'a a u njani nitu ana me kankrji mu na, ki he mbu Iti mu wa a ton me.
Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.
17 Ee, Ana ki ni du wa ba nha mi tre bitsi, andi sheda indji hari a njanji.
It's also written in your Law that the testimony of two people is valid.
18 Ahi me yi mi sheda itu mu, u Itimu iwa a ton me a sheda mu.”
I am one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me."
19 Ba miyen, “Iti me ahe ni tsen?” Yesu hla ni bawu bina tome na, me bika tre Itimu, bina to me, bina to Iti mu'a me.
They said therefore to him, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me, nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know my Father also."
20 A hla tre biyi whirewhir ni bubu wa ba zi kpi wa si tsoro ba tre Rji ni mi hekeli, idiori na vu na nitu iton ma na tsira rina.
Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
21 Na hla bawu bru, mi hi biwa bina to me na, bi kwu ni mi latre bi. bubu wa misi hi'a, bina ya hi na.
Jesus said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you cannot come."
22 Yahudawa ba tre, ani wutuma mu, na ni tre iwurji wa mi hi'a bina ya hi na?”
The Jewish leaders therefore said, "Will he kill himself, that he says, 'Where I am going, you cannot come?'"
23 Yesu hla bawu biyi bi rji ni meme, u me mi rji ni shu. Bi he ni gbungbulu yi, ime mina rji ni yi ni gbungbulu yi na.
He said to them, "You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.
24 Iki sa mi hla niyu bi kwu ni mi latre bi. Bitana kpayemmen ni soron bi andi a hi me na, bi kwu ni mi latre bi.
I said therefore to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."
25 U ba tre niwu, awu nha? “Yesu hla ba wu, ikpe mi hla rji ni mumla.
They said therefore to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.
26 Mi he ni kpi gbugbuwu wa mi hla ni yiwu, ni gbi ton ni yiwu ni tuma. Naki me, indji wa a ton ndu, andi u njanji, ikpi wa mi wo niwu'a a baki mi si hla ni gbungbulu ba.”
I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world."
27 Bana tona ndi asi tre nitu Iti'a.
They did not understand that he spoke to them about the Father.
28 Yesu tre, bita zu Vren Ndji hi ni shu ri bi to ndi a hi me, ndi mi ti kpi ri ni tumu na. Na wa Iti tsoro me, naki mi si ikpi ni yiwu.
Jesus therefore said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I say these things.
29 Wawu wa a ton me ndu'a, ana ka me don kan grji mu na, ahe ni me nitu kpi wawu wa me ti'a ani kpa soron ma si.”
He who sent me is with me. The Father hasn't left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him."
30 Wa Yesu si hla bi mba, indji gbugbu'u ba kpa yemme ni wu.
As he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31 Yesu hla biyi ni Yahudawa biwa ba wo na kpayenmen niwu, “Bi ta kli ni mi tre mu ni njanji, bi almajere mu bi nanji.
Jesus therefore said to those Judeans who had believed him, "If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.
32 Bi to njanji, u njanji ni kpayi chuwo.”
You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free."
33 U ba sa niwu, “Ki mir bi grji ba Ibrahim wa kina ti bre hu diori kan na, iwa tre ni genri, ba kpatachuwo?”
They answered him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can you say, 'You will be made free?'"
34 Yesu hla bawu, “Njani, njanji, mi hla ni yiwu, indji wa ani latre, ahi gran latre.
Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the slave of sin.
35 Igran, na son ni ko se ka se na, ata son se ka se. (aiōn g165)
A slave does not live in the house forever. A son remains forever. (aiōn g165)
36 Naki, ivren nita kpa yi chuwo, u bi nawo wawu.
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
37 Mi to bi, bi igrji Ibrahim, bi son bi wuma, nitu wa lan tre mu na he ni bubu son ni mi bina.
I know that you are Abraham's descendants, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.
38 Mi hla ikpe wa mi to ni Ti mu, biyi bi ti ikpe wa bi wo ni ba ti bi'a.
I say the things which I have seen with my Father; and you also do the things which you have heard from your father."
39 U ba sa niwu, “Ibrahim mba a timbu, Yesu hla bawu, “Bina mir Ibrahim bina ti ikpe wa Ibrahim a ti'a.
They answered him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.
40 U, zizan bi son wume, indji wa a hla njani ni yiwu wa a wo rji ni Rji. Ibrahim na ti naki na.
But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.
41 Bi ti na Iti mbi, u ba hla niwu, “Bana grji ta ni mi gyugyu na, ki he ni Iti riri, Irji.”
You do the works of your father." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father, God."
42 Yesu hla bawu, “Irji ana Iti bi bi na son me, u mi rji ni Irji i mi he ni yi zizan, ana ni tumu mi ye na, a wawu yi ton me.
Therefore Jesus said to them, "If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me.
43 Ahi genri sa bina ya to wo tre mu na? e bina wo tre mu na.
Why do you not understand my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
44 Bi u Ti bi, Ibrji, bi son bi hu iza ma Iti bi, ani wu ndi rji ni mumla mu ana kri ni njanji na he ni wuna, anita ni hla ice, asi hla Iti ma (isoron ma) rji ni mu a indji u ce na Iti u ce ngari.
You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its father.
45 Wa mi si hla njanji ni yiwu u bi na kpa yenme ni kpe wa mi si hla na.
But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
46 Ahi nha ni ri mbi a vu me ni latre? Mi ta hla njanji u bi ka na kpayemme na?
Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 Indji wa a u Rji ani wo tre Rji, biyi bina wo tre Irji na, nitu wa bina u Rji na.
He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you do not hear, because you are not of God."
48 Yahudawa ba sa niwu, natre, “Kina hla njanji na nitu wa ki hla andi u indji u Samariya ni he ni meme brji?”
Then the Judeans answered him, "Do not we say well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?"
49 Yesu sa bawu, “ime mi na he ni Ibrji na, mi to ninkon u Timu, biyi bina to ninkon mu na.”
Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
50 Mina wa to tu mu ti kperi u tu mu na, Indji ri he wa ani wa na ni gbi ton.
But I do not seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.
51 Njanji, njanji, mi hla ni yiwu, indji wa a hu tre mu, ana to kwu na.” (aiōn g165)
Truly, truly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death." (aiōn g165)
52 U Yahudawa ba tre, zizan yi ki to u he ni brji. Ibrahim ni ana bawa ba kwu, iwu u tre, indji wa a hu tre me ana to kwu na.' (aiōn g165)
Then the Judeans said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and the prophets; and you say, 'If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste of death.' (aiōn g165)
53 Ee, u na zan Iti mbu Ibrahim ni ninkon na wa kwu, ka u zan? anabawa me ba kwu, u ban tu ndi u nha?”
Are you greater than our father, Abraham, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?"
54 Yesu sa, “Mita ban tumu ti kperi u tu mu, ani u migyen, ahi Iti mu mba ban ti kperi iwa bi tre ahi wawuyi a Irji bi.
Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say 'He is our God.'
55 Bi mebina tou na, ime mi tou, mi ta tre mina tou na, ka mi kati iriri ni yi me, indji u ce, se me, mi to ni ni hu tre ma.
You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, 'I do not know him,' I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.
56 Iti bi Ibrahim a gir ni to ivi mu, a tou na gir.”
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad."
57 Yahudawa ba hla niwu, “Una ti hamsi rina, una to Ibrahim?”
The Judeans therefore said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?"
58 Yesu hla bawu, “Njanji, njanji, mi si hla ni yiwu, mi heri, ban grji Ibrahim.
Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, before Abraham came into existence, I AM."
59 U ba vu tita ndi ba tau, u Yesu ri tuma, na rju ni mi hekeli'a.
Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Jesus was concealed, and went out of the temple.
