Johan 5
1 He phoeiah Judah rhoek kah khotue om tih Jesuh tah Jerusalem la cet.
After these things was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Te vaengah Jerusalem kah tuthohka ah Bethesda tila Hebrew loh a khue tuibuem pakhat om tih impup panga om.
Now there is in Jerusalem, at the sheepgate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.
3 Te rhoek ah te aka yuii, aka khaem rhoek, mikdael rhoek neh aka tlotat rhoek loh rhaengpuei la yalh uh.
In these lay a multitude of sick, blind, lame, withered, [awaiting the moving of the water.
4 Saivai ah puencawn ha pawk atah tui a hinghuen sak. Tui a hinghuen vaengah aka cungpung lamhma tah hoeih.
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 Te vaengah kum sawmthum kum rhet khuiah a tloh aka kaem hlang pakhat te tapkhoeh om.
But there was a certain man there who had been suffering under his infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 Jesuh loh aka yalh sut te a hmuh vaengah kum muep di coeng tila a ming. Te dongah anih te, “Sading la om na ngaih a?” a ti nah.
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 Aka tlo loh Jesuh te, “Boeipa, tui a hinghuen vaengah tuibuem khuila kai aka tulh ham te hlang ka khueh moenih, ka caeh pangthuem khaw a tloe loh kai hmaiah cungpung coeng,” a ti nah.
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 Jesuh loh anih te, “Thoo, na phakdoeng te kawt lamtah cet laeh,” a ti nah.
Jesus says to him, Arise, take up thy couch and walk.
9 Tekah hlang tah sading la pahoi a om dongah a phakdoeng te a koh tih pongpa. Tekah khohnin tah Sabbath la om.
And immediately the man became well, and took up his couch and walked: and on that day was sabbath.
10 Te dongah aka hoeih tangtae te Judah rhoek loh, “Sabbath a om vaengah nang tah na phakdoeng te n'koh sak moenih,” a ti na uh.
The Jews therefore said to the healed [man], It is sabbath, it is not permitted thee to take up thy couch.
11 Te long khaw amih te a doo tih, “Kai sading la aka om sak loh kai taengah, ‘Namah kah phakdoeng te kawt lamtah cet laeh,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
He answered them, He that made me well, he said to me, Take up thy couch and walk.
12 Amah te, “Nang taengah, ‘Kawt lamtah cet,’ aka ti te u hlang nim?” a ti na uh.
They asked him [therefore], Who is the man who said to thee, Take up thy couch and walk?
13 Tedae aka hoeih loh Jesuh te unim ti khaw a ming moenih. Tekah hmuen ah hlangping a om vaengah ni Jesuh tah pawlh a bit uh coeng.
But he that had been healed knew not who it was, for Jesus had slidden away, there being a crowd in the place.
14 Te phoeiah Jesuh loh anih te bawkim khuiah a hmuh tih, “Sading la na om coeng he. Tholh voel boeh saw. Khat khat loh nang taengah a thae la ha pai mahpawt nim,” a ti nah.
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 Tekah hlang te cet tih amah sading la aka om sak te Jesuh ni tila Judah rhoek taengah puen.
The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
16 Hekah he Sabbath ah a saii dongah Judah rhoek loh Jesuh te a hnaemtaek uh.
And for this the Jews persecuted Jesus [and sought to kill him], because he had done these things on sabbath.
17 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te, “A pa loh tahae duela a saii dongah kai khaw ka saii,” a ti nah.
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto and I work.
18 Te vaengah Sabbath te a phae bueng kolla Pathen khaw a pa a ti tih Pathen te amah neh vanat la a khueh bal dongah Judah rhoek loh amah te ngawn ham taoe a mae uh.
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 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, pa loh a saii te a hmuh pawt atah capa loh amah lamkah a saii ham a coeng loeng loeng moenih. Te loh a saii te tah capa long khaw a saii van he.
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 Pa loh capa te a lungnah dongah amah loh a saii te a taengah boeih a tueng. Te lakah bibi tanglue te a taengah a tueng bal ni. Te daengah ni na ngai a hmang uh eh.
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 Pa loh aka duek rhoek te a thoh tih a hing sak bangla capa long khaw a ngaih te tah a hing sak van.
For even as the Father raises the dead and quickens [them], thus the Son also quickens whom he will:
22 Pa loh pakhat khaw lai a tloek thil moenih. Tedae laitloeknah he capa taengah boeih a paek coeng.
for neither does the Father judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son;
23 Te daengah ni pa a hinyah bangla capa te boeih a hinyah eh. Capa te aka hinyah pawt long tah anih aka tueih pa te hinyah pawh.
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 Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, kai ol a yaak tih ka tueih hlang te aka tangnah loh dungyan hingnah a khueh. Te dongah laitloeknah khuila kun pawh, dueknah lamloh hingnah khuila thoeih coeng. (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 Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, a tue ha pawk tih om coeng. Aka duek rhoek khaw Pathen capa kah ol te a hnatun tih aka ya rhoek tah hing uh ni.
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 Pa loh a khuiah hingnah a khueh bangla capa long te khaw a khuiah hingnah khueh ham a paek van.
For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given to the Son also to have life in himself,
27 Hlang capa la a om dongah laitloeknah saii ham saithainah khaw amah taengah a paek.
and has given him authority to execute judgment [also], because he is Son of man.
28 A tue ha pawk coeng dongah phuel khuikah rhoek boeih loh a ol te a khuiah a yaak uh vetih ha moe uh ni.
Wonder not at this, for an hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs shall hear his voice,
29 He he ngaihmang sak uh boeh. A then aka saii rhoek tah hingnah dongkah thohkoepnah la, tedae a thae la kho aka boe rhoek tah laitloeknah kah thohkoepnah dongla pawk.
and shall go forth; those that have practised good, to resurrection of life, and those that have done evil, to resurrection of judgment.
30 Kai tah kamah lamkah loh bakhaw saii ham ka coeng moenih. Ka yaak bangla lai ka tloek dongah kai kah laitloeknah khaw a dueng la om. Kamah kongaih te ka toem pawt tih kai aka tueih kung kah kongaih te ka toem.
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 Kai loh kamah kawng ka phong koinih kai kah olphong te oltak om pawh.
If I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is not true.
32 Kai kawng aka phong te hlang tloe om. Te dongah kai kawng a phong te aka thuem olphong ni tila ka ming.
It is another who bears witness concerning me, and I know that the witness which he bears concerning me is true.
33 Nangmih loh Johan taengla na tueih uh vaengah oltak te a phong.
Ye have sent unto John, and he has borne witness to the truth.
34 Kai loh hlang taengkah olphong te ka doe moenih. Tedae nangmih khang ham he rhoek he ka thui.
But I do not receive witness from man, but I say this that ye might be saved.
35 Anih te tok tangtae hmaiim la om tih a vang hatah nangmih loh anih kah vangnah khuiah kohoe kolkalh ham na ngaih uh.
He was the burning and shining lamp, and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 Tedae kai loh Johan lakah olphong tanglue ka khueh. Tekah bitat te coeng hamla pa loh kai taengah m'paek coeng. Tekah bibi ka saii dongah kai aka tueih a pa loh kai kawng te a phong.
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 Kai aka tueih a pa loh kai kawng te a phong. A ol te na ya uh noek pawt tih a mueimae khaw na hmu uh noek pawh.
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 A ol te na khuiah na khueh uh pawt tih a naeh pawt dongah amah loh a tueih te khaw na tangnah uh pawh.
and ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he hath sent, him ye do not believe.
39 A khuiah dungyan hingnah om ni tila na poek uh dongah cacim te na khe uh. Tedae te dongkah aka om rhoek loh kai kawng ni a phong uh. (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 Te phoeiah hingnah dang ham kai taengla na lo ngaih uh moenih.
and ye will not come to me that ye might have life.
41 Hlang lamkah thangpomnah te ka doe moenih.
I do not receive glory from men,
42 Tedae nangmih loh namamih khuiah Pathen kah lungnah na khueh uh pawt te ka ming.
but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
43 A pa kah ming neh kai ka pawk dae kai nan doe uh moenih. Hlang tloe te amah ming neh amah ngaih la ha pawk koinih anih te na doe uh suidae.
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 Nangmih loh metlam na tangnah uh thai eh. Khat khat lamkah thangpomnah te na doe uh vaengah Pathen bueng lamkah thangpomnah te na toem uh moenih.
How can ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and seek not the glory which [comes] from God alone?
45 Pa taengah nangmih te kai loh m'paelnaeh ni tila poek uh boeh. Nangmih aka paelnaeh la Moses om, anih la na ngaiuep uh dae.
Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is [one] who accuses you, Moses, on whom ye trust;
46 Moses te na tangnah uh koinih kai nan tangnah uh ni. Anih long khaw kai kawng ni a daek.
for if ye had believed Moses, ye would have believed me, for he wrote of me.
47 Tedae anih kah cabu te na tangnah uh pawt atah metlamlae kai olka he na tangnah uh eh?” a ti nah.
But if ye do not believe his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
