Johan 5
1 He phoeiah Judah rhoek kah khotue om tih Jesuh tah Jerusalem la cet.
After this came the feast of the Jews, so 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 in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate there is a pool, called Bethesda in Hebrew, which has five porticoes.
3 Te rhoek ah te aka yuii, aka khaem rhoek, mikdael rhoek neh aka tlotat rhoek loh rhaengpuei la yalh uh.
In the porticoes were lying a great multitude of disabled people, including the blind, the lame, and the paralyzed, who were waiting for the moving of the water.
4 Saivai ah puencawn ha pawk atah tuibuem a hinghuen sak. Tuibuem a hinghuen vaengah aka cungpung lamhma tah hoeih.
For at times an angel would go down into the pool and stir up the water. The first person who stepped in after the water was stirred up was healed of whatever disease he had.
5 Te vaengah kum sawmthum kum rhet khuiah a tloh aka kaem hlang pakhat te tapkhoeh om.
One man was there who had been suffering in his disability for thirty-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.
When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been in that condition for a long time already, he said to him, “Do yoʋ want to be made 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 disabled man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, but while I am going, another goes down before me.”
8 Jesuh loh anih te, “Thoo, na phakdoeng te kawt lamtah cet laeh,” a ti nah.
Jesus said to him, “Rise, pick up yoʋr mat, 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.
Immediately the man was made well, so he picked up his mat and began to walk. Now that day was a 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 nauh.
So the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for yoʋ to pick up yoʋr mat.”
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, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Pick up yoʋr mat and walk.’”
12 Amah te, “Nang taengah, 'Kawt lamtah cet, ' aka ti te u hlang nim?” a ti nauh.
So they asked him, “Who is the man who said to yoʋ, ‘Pick up yoʋr mat 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 the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away, since there was a crowd in that 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 this Jesus found the man in the temple courts and said to him, “Behold, yoʋ have been made well; do not sin anymore, lest something worse happen to yoʋ.”
15 Tekah hlang te cet tih amah sading la aka om sak te Jesuh ni tila Judah rhoek taengah puen.
Then the man went 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.
So the Jews began persecuting Jesus and seeking to kill him, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te, “A pa loh tahae duela a saii dongah kai khaw ka saii,” a ti nah.
But Jesus responded to them, “My Father is still working even now, and I too am working.”
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.
So the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God 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.
So Jesus responded to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does in the same way.
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 shows him all that he himself does. And he will show him greater works than these, so that you will be amazed.
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 just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whomever he wishes.
22 Pa loh pakhat khaw lai a tloek thil moenih. Tedae laitloeknah he capa taengah boeih a paek coeng.
The Father judges no 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.
so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who 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)
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to 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.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming, and is now here, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.
26 Pa loh a khuiah hingnah a khueh bangla capa long te khaw a khuiah hingnah khueh ham a paek van.
For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son to have life in himself.
27 Hlang capa la a om dongah laitloeknah saii ham saithainah khaw amah taengah a paek.
And he has given the Son authority to execute judgment, because he is the 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.
Do not be amazed at this, because an hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will 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 come out, those who have done good to a resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to a 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 can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who sent me.
31 Kai loh kamah kawng ka phong koinih kai kah olphong te oltak om pawh.
“If I testify about myself, my testimony is not valid.
32 Kai kawng aka phong te hlang tloe om. Te dongah kai kawng a phong te aka thuem olphong ni tila ka ming.
There is another who testifies about me, and I know that the testimony he gives about me is true.
33 Nangmih loh Johan taengla na tueih uh vaengah oltak te a phong.
You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.
34 Kai loh hlang taengkah olphong te ka doe moenih. Tedae nangmih khang ham he rhoek he ka thui.
Now I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things so that you may 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.
John was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for an hour 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 testimony greater than John's. For the works that the Father has given me to accomplish, the very works that I am doing, testify 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 sent me has himself testified about me. You have neither heard his voice at any time nor seen his form.
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 you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe him whom he sent.
39 A khuiah dungyan hingnah om ni tila na poek uh dongah cacim te na kheuh. Tedae te dongkah aka om rhoek loh kai kawng ni a phong uh. (aiōnios g166)
You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life, and it is these that testify about me, (aiōnios g166)
40 Te phoeiah hingnah dang ham kai taengla na lo ngaih uh moenih.
yet you are not willing to come to me so that you may 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 that you do not have the love of God within 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 have come in the name of my Father, and yet you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.
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 you believe when you receive glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the one and only God?
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.
Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. The one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have set your hope.
46 Moses te na tangnah uh koinih kai nan tangnah uh ni. Anih long khaw kai kawng ni a daek.
If you had believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about 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 you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
