< Yohane 3 >
1 Ndipo panali Mfarisi wotchedwa Nekodimo, wa mʼgulu lolamulira la Ayuda.
Ἦν δὲ ἄνθρωπος ἐκ τῶν Φαρισαίων, Νικόδημος ὄνομα αὐτῷ, ἄρχων τῶν Ἰουδαίων·
2 Iye anabwera kwa Yesu usiku ndipo anati, “Rabi, ife tikudziwa kuti ndinu aphunzitsi wochokera kwa Mulungu, pakuti palibe amene angachite zizindikiro zodabwitsa zimene Inu mukuchita ngati Mulungu sali naye.”
οὗτος ἦλθε πρὸς αὐτὸν νυκτός, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ῥαββί, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀπὸ Θεοῦ ἐλήλυθας διδάσκαλος· οὐδεὶς γὰρ ταῦτα τὰ σημεῖα δύναται ποιεῖν ἃ σὺ ποιεῖς, ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ ὁ Θεὸς μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ.
3 Poyankha Yesu ananena kuti, “Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuza kuti, ngati munthu sabadwanso mwatsopano sangathe kuona ufumu wa Mulungu.”
Ἀπεκρίθη ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι, ἐὰν μή τις γεννηθῇ ἄνωθεν, οὐ δύναται ἰδεῖν τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ.
4 Nekodimo anati, “Kodi munthu angabadwenso bwanji atakalamba? Kodi angalowe kachiwiri mʼmimba ya amayi ake kuti abadwenso?”
Λέγει πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ Νικόδημος, Πῶς δύναται ἄνθρωπος γεννηθῆναι γέρων ὤν; Μὴ δύναται εἰς τὴν κοιλίαν τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ δεύτερον εἰσελθεῖν καὶ γεννηθῆναι;
5 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuza kuti ngati munthu sabadwa mwa madzi ndi Mzimu Woyera, sangalowe mu ufumu wa Mulungu.
Ἀπεκρίθη Ἰησοῦς, Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι, ἐὰν μή τις γεννηθῇ ἐξ ὕδατος καὶ πνεύματος, οὐ δύναται εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ Θεοῦ.
6 Thupi limabereka thupi, koma Mzimu amabereka mzimu.
Τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τῆς σαρκὸς σάρξ ἐστι· καὶ τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος πνεῦμά ἐστι.
7 Iwe usadabwe chifukwa ndakuwuza kuti, ‘Uyenera kubadwanso.’
Μὴ θαυμάσῃς ὅτι εἶπόν σοι, Δεῖ ὑμᾶς γεννηθῆναι ἄνωθεν.
8 Mphepo imawomba kulikonse kumene ikufuna. Ungathe kumva kuwomba kwake, koma sungathe kudziwa kumene ikuchokera kapena kumene ikupita. Nʼchimodzimodzi ndi amene abadwa ndi Mzimu Woyera.”
Τὸ πνεῦμα ὅπου θέλει πνεῖ, καὶ τὴν φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἀκούεις, ἀλλ᾽ οὐκ οἶδας πόθεν ἔρχεται καὶ ποῦ ὑπάγει· οὕτως ἐστὶ πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος.
9 Nekodimo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi izi zingatheke bwanji?”
Ἀπεκρίθη Νικόδημος καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Πῶς δύναται ταῦτα γενέσθαι;
10 Yesu anati, “Iwe mphunzitsi wa Israeli, kodi sukuzindikira zimenezi?
Ἀπεκρίθη Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Σὺ εἶ ὁ διδάσκαλος τοῦ Ἰσραήλ, καὶ ταῦτα οὐ γινώσκεις;
11 Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuza kuti ife tiyankhula zimene tikuzidziwa ndi kuchitira umboni zimene taziona, komabe inu simuvomereza umboni wathu.
Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω σοι ὅτι ὃ οἴδαμεν λαλοῦμεν, καὶ ὃ ἑωράκαμεν μαρτυροῦμεν· καὶ τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἡμῶν οὐ λαμβάνετε.
12 Ine ndikuyankhula kwa iwe zinthu za dziko lapansi ndipo sukukhulupirira. Nanga kodi udzakhulupirira bwanji ngati nditayankhula zinthu zakumwamba?
Εἰ τὰ ἐπίγεια εἶπον ὑμῖν καὶ οὐ πιστεύετε, πῶς, ἐὰν εἴπω ὑμῖν τὰ ἐπουράνια, πιστεύσετε;
13 Palibe wina aliyense anapita kumwamba, koma yekhayo amene watsika kuchokera kumwamba, Mwana wa Munthu.
Καὶ οὐδεὶς ἀναβέβηκεν εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν, εἰ μὴ ὁ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καταβάς, ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ὁ ὢν ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ.
14 Tsono monga Mose anapachika njoka mʼchipululu, moteronso Mwana wa Munthu ayenera kupachikidwa,
Καὶ καθὼς Μωσῆς ὕψωσε τὸν ὄφιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, οὕτως ὑψωθῆναι δεῖ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου·
15 kuti aliyense amene akhulupirira Iye akhale ndi moyo wosatha. (aiōnios )
ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν μὴ ἀπόληται, ἀλλ᾽ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον. (aiōnios )
16 “Pakuti Mulungu anakonda dziko lapansi, kotero anapereka Mwana wake wobadwa yekha, kuti aliyense wokhulupirira Iye asatayike koma akhale ndi moyo wosatha. (aiōnios )
Οὕτω γὰρ ἠγάπησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν κόσμον, ὥστε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ τὸν μονογενῆ ἔδωκεν, ἵνα πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν μὴ ἀπόληται, ἀλλ᾽ ἔχῃ ζωὴν αἰώνιον. (aiōnios )
17 Pakuti Mulungu sanatume Mwana wake ku dziko lapansi, kuti akaweruze, koma kuti akapulumutse dziko lapansi.
Οὐ γὰρ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν κόσμον ἵνα κρίνῃ τὸν κόσμον, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα σωθῇ ὁ κόσμος δι᾽ αὐτοῦ.
18 Aliyense wokhulupirira Iye saweruzidwa, koma aliyense wosakhulupirira waweruzidwa kale chifukwa sanakhulupirire dzina la Mwana wobadwa yekha wa Mulungu.
Ὁ πιστεύων εἰς αὐτὸν οὐ κρίνεται· ὁ δὲ μὴ πιστεύων ἤδη κέκριται, ὅτι μὴ πεπίστευκεν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ μονογενοῦς υἱοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ.
19 Ndipo chiweruzo ndi ichi: kuwunika kunabwera mʼdziko lapansi, koma anthu anakonda mdima mʼmalo mwa kuwunikako, chifukwa ntchito zawo zinali zoyipa.
Αὕτη δέ ἐστιν ἡ κρίσις, ὅτι τὸ φῶς ἐλήλυθεν εἰς τὸν κόσμον, καὶ ἠγάπησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι μᾶλλον τὸ σκότος ἢ τὸ φῶς· ἦν γὰρ πονηρὰ αὐτῶν τὰ ἔργα.
20 Aliyense wochita zoyipa amadana ndi kuwunika, ndipo sabwera poyera chifukwa cha mantha kuti ntchito zake zingaonekere.
Πᾶς γὰρ ὁ φαῦλα πράσσων μισεῖ τὸ φῶς, καὶ οὐκ ἔρχεται πρὸς τὸ φῶς, ἵνα μὴ ἐλεγχθῇ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ.
21 Koma aliyense wokhala mu choonadi amabwera ku kuwunika, kuti zionekere poyera zimene iye wachita zachitika kudzera mwa Mulungu.”
Ὁ δὲ ποιῶν τὴν ἀλήθειαν ἔρχεται πρὸς τὸ φῶς, ἵνα φανερωθῇ αὐτοῦ τὰ ἔργα, ὅτι ἐν Θεῷ ἐστιν εἰργασμένα.
22 Zitatha izi, Yesu ndi ophunzira ake anapita mʼmadera a ku midzi ya ku Yudeya, kumene Iye anakhala kanthawi akubatiza.
Μετὰ ταῦτα ἦλθεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὴν Ἰουδαίαν γῆν· καὶ ἐκεῖ διέτριβε μετ᾽ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐβάπτιζεν.
23 Ndipo Yohane amabatizanso ku Ainoni kufupi ndi Salimu, chifukwa kumeneko kunali madzi ambiri ndipo anthu amabwererabwererabe kudzabatizidwa.
Ἦν δὲ καὶ Ἰωάννης βαπτίζων ἐν Αἰνὼν ἐγγὺς τοῦ Σαλήμ, ὅτι ὕδατα πολλὰ ἦν ἐκεῖ· καὶ παρεγίνοντο καὶ ἐβαπτίζοντο.
24 (Apa nʼkuti Yohane asanatsekeredwe mʼndende).
Οὔπω γὰρ ἦν βεβλημένος εἰς τὴν φυλακὴν ὁ Ἰωάννης.
25 Mkangano unabuka pakati pa ophunzira ena a Yohane ndi Ayuda ena pa zamwambo wodziyeretsa wa Ayuda.
Ἐγένετο οὖν ζήτησις ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν Ἰωάννου μετὰ Ἰουδαίου περὶ καθαρισμοῦ.
26 Iwo anabwera kwa Yohane anati, “Rabi, munthu uja munali naye mbali inayo ya mu mtsinje wa Yorodani, amene munamuchitira umboni, taonani naye akubatizanso, ndipo aliyense akupita kwa Iye.”
Καὶ ἦλθον πρὸς τὸν Ἰωάννην καὶ εἶπον αὐτῷ, Ῥαββί, ὃς ἦν μετὰ σοῦ πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, ᾧ σὺ μεμαρτύρηκας, ἴδε οὗτος βαπτίζει, καὶ πάντες ἔρχονται πρὸς αὐτόν.
27 Atamva zimenezi, Yohane anayankha kuti, “Munthu amalandira chokhacho chapatsidwa kwa iye kuchokera kumwamba.
Ἀπεκρίθη Ἰωάννης καὶ εἶπεν, Οὐ δύναται ἄνθρωπος λαμβάνειν οὐδέν, ἐὰν μὴ ᾖ δεδομένον αὐτῷ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
28 Inuyo ndinu mboni zanga kuti ine ndinati, ‘Ine sindine Khristu koma ndatumidwa patsogolo pa Iye.’
Αὐτοὶ ὑμεῖς μαρτυρεῖτε ὅτι εἶπον, Οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐγὼ ὁ Χριστός, ἀλλ᾽ ὅτι Ἀπεσταλμένος εἰμὶ ἔμπροσθεν ἐκείνου.
29 Mwini wake wa mkwatibwi ndi mkwati. Ndipo bwenzi lamkwati limadikira ndi kumvetsera iye, ndipo amakondwa akamva mawu a mkwatiyo. Ine changa ndi chimwemwe ndipo ndine wosangalala kwambiri.
Ὁ ἔχων τὴν νύμφην, νυμφίος ἐστίν· ὁ δὲ φίλος τοῦ νυμφίου, ὁ ἑστηκὼς καὶ ἀκούων αὐτοῦ, χαρᾷ χαίρει διὰ τὴν φωνὴν τοῦ νυμφίου· αὕτη οὖν ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμὴ πεπλήρωται.
30 Nʼkoyenera kuti Iyeyo akule, ine ndichepe.
Ἐκεῖνον δεῖ αὐξάνειν, ἐμὲ δὲ ἐλαττοῦσθαι.
31 “Iye wochokera kumwamba ndi wapamwamba pa onse: iye wochokera mʼdziko lapansi ndi wa dziko lapansi, ndipo amayankhula monga mmodzi wa adziko lapansi. Iye wochokera kumwamba ndi wopambana onse.
Ὁ ἄνωθεν ἐρχόμενος ἐπάνω πάντων ἐστίν. Ὁ ὢν ἐκ τῆς γῆς, ἐκ τῆς γῆς ἐστι, καὶ ἐκ τῆς γῆς λαλεῖ· ὁ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἐρχόμενος ἐπάνω πάντων ἐστί.
32 Iye achita umboni pa zimene waziona ndi kuzimva, koma palibe avomereza umboni wake.
Καὶ ὃ ἑώρακε καὶ ἤκουσε, τοῦτο μαρτυρεῖ· καὶ τὴν μαρτυρίαν αὐτοῦ οὐδεὶς λαμβάνει.
33 Munthu amene amawulandira akutsimikizira kuti Mulungu ndi woona.
Ὁ λαβὼν αὐτοῦ τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἐσφράγισεν ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς ἀληθής ἐστιν.
34 Pakuti amene Mulungu wamutuma amayankhula mawu a Mulungu; Mulungu wamupatsa Mzimu Woyera mopanda malire.
Ὃν γὰρ ἀπέστειλεν ὁ Θεός, τὰ ῥήματα τοῦ Θεοῦ λαλεῖ· οὐ γὰρ ἐκ μέτρου δίδωσιν ὁ Θεὸς τὸ πνεῦμα.
35 Atate amakonda Mwana ndipo apereka zonse mʼmanja mwake.
Ὁ πατὴρ ἀγαπᾷ τὸν υἱόν, καὶ πάντα δέδωκεν ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ.
36 Aliyense wokhulupirira Mwanayo ali ndi moyo wosatha, koma iye amene samvera Mwanayo sadzawuona moyo, pakuti mkwiyo wa Mulungu umakhala pa iye.” (aiōnios )
Ὁ πιστεύων εἰς τὸν υἱὸν ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον· ὁ δὲ ἀπειθῶν τῷ υἱῷ, οὐκ ὄψεται ζωήν, ἀλλ᾽ ἡ ὀργὴ τοῦ Θεοῦ μένει ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν. (aiōnios )
