< Yohana 5 >

1 Payamasile yeleyo, Che Yesu ŵakwesile kwaula ku Yelusalemu ku chindimba cha Ŵayahudi,
After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Ni ku Yelusalemu ko, pachiŵandi nnango wekulungwa waukuŵilanjikwa nnango wa ngondolo, kwaliji ni litanda lyalikuŵilanjikwa Mchiebulania Betisasa lyalili ni mapenu nsano.
And there was there in Jerusalem a certain place of baptizing, which was called in Hebrew Bethesda; and there were in it five porches.
3 Ŵakulwala ŵajinji ŵagonaga mmapenu mo, kwaliji ni ŵangalola ni ŵakulemala ni ŵakutatala.
And in them were laid a great multitude of the sick, and the blind, and the lame, and the withered, waiting for the moving of the waters.
4 Ŵalolelaga meesi gatinganyikwe, pakuŵa kapali katema katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵatuluchilaga mmeesi ni kugatinganya. Jwakulwala jwalijose juŵaliji jwaandanda kwinjila mmeesi gagatinganyikwe, ŵalamile ulwele uliwose walinawo.
For an angel, from time to time, descended into the baptistery, and moved the waters; and he who first went in, after the moving of the waters, was cured of whatever disease he had.
5 Pelepo paliji ni mundu jumo juŵatatele yaka makumi gatatu kupambula nsano ni itatu.
And a certain man was there, who had been diseased thirty and eight years.
6 Che Yesu paŵambweni mundu jula ali agonile pepala ni kwimanyilila kuti ali jwakulwala moŵa gamajinji, ŵambusisye, “Ana nkusaka kulama?”
Jesus saw him lying, and knew that his disease had been a long time upon him, and said to him: Desirest thou to be healed?
7 Jwakulwala jo ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, uneji nganingola jwakunyinjisya mu litanda katema meesi pagakutinganyikwa. Pingulinga kwinjila, mundu jwine akuunongolela kwinjila.”
And the sick man answered and said: Yes, my lord; but I have no one who, when the water is moved, will put me into the baptistery; but while I am coming, another descendeth before me.
8 Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Njimuche, njigale ugono wenu njaule.”
Jesus said to him: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 Papopo pepo mundu jo ŵalamile, ŵajigele ugono wakwe ni kwaula. Yeleyo yatendekwe pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila.
And immediately the man was healed; and he arose, took up his bed, and walked; and it was the sabbath day.
10 Nipele achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵansalile mundu jwalamile jo, “Lelo jino lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila ni malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa gakukanya kunyakula ugono wenu.”
And the Jews said to him that was healed: It is the sabbath; it is not lawful for thee to bear thy bed.
11 Nambo mundu jo ŵaajanjile ŵanyawo, “Mundu jwanamisye jula andanjile, ‘Njigale ugono wenu, njaule.’”
But he answered, and said to them: He that made me whole, he said to me, Take up thy bed and walk.
12 Ŵanyawo ŵambusisye, “Ana ŵaani ansalile njigale ugono wenu njaule?”
And they asked him: Who is the man that said to thee, Take up thy bed and walk?
13 Nambo mundu juŵalamiswe jula nganammanyilila Che Yesu kuti ali ŵaani, pakuŵa pepala paliji ni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu ni Che Yesu ŵatyosile pepala.
But the man that was healed, knew not who it was; for Jesus had slid away, in the great multitude that was in the place.
14 Kanyuma Che Yesu ŵansimene mundu juŵannamisye jula pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ni ŵansalile, “Mpilikane sambano nnamile, kasintenda sooni sambi, chinaiche kunsimana chindu chakusakala kupunda achichi.”
After a time, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him: Lo, thou art healed; sin not again, lest something worse come upon thee than before.
15 Mundu jula ŵajawile kukwasalila achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi kuti Che Yesu ni juŵalamisye.
And the man went and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had cured him.
16 Pakuŵa Che Yesu ŵatendekenye yeleyo pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, Ŵayahudi ŵatandite kunchima.
And for this cause the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill him; because he had done these things on the sabbath.
17 Nambo Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Atati ŵangu akupanganya masengo moŵa gose ni uneji ngugapanganya iyoyo peyo.”
But Jesus said to them: My Father worketh until now, and I work.
18 Kwa ligongo lyo, achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵapundile kusosasosa litala lyakwaulaga Che Yesu ngaŵa ligongo lyakutema malajisyo ga Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila pe, nambo pakuŵa alitesile kuti Akunnungu ali Atatigwe ni kulitenda chisau ni Akunnungu.
And for this, the Jews sought the more to kill him, not only because he had broken the sabbath, but because he had said of God, that he was his Father, and had equalled himself with God.
19 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngunsalila isyene, Mwana ngakukombola kupanganya chachilichose jikape. Mwana akukombola kupanganya achilape chakuchiwona alinkupanganya Atati. Pakuŵa achila chaakuchipanganya Atati Mwana nombejo akupanganya ilaila peila.
And Jesus answered, and said to them: Verily, verily, I say to you: The Son can do nothing, of his own pleasure, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things the Father doeth, these in like manner doeth the Son.
20 Atati akunnonyela Mwana ni kunlosya indu yose yakupanganya nsyene. Sooni chiŵalosye indu yekulungwa kupunda ayiyi, ni ŵanyamwe chinsimonje.
For the Father loveth his Son, and showeth him every thing he doeth: and greater works than these, will he show him, that ye may wonder.
21 Mpela ila Atati iyakuti pakwasyusya ŵawile ni kwapa umi, iyoyo peyo ni Mwana akwapa umi aŵala ŵakwasaka.
For as the Father raiseth the dead, and vivifieth them; so also the Son vivifieth whom he pleaseth.
22 Atati ngakunlamula mundu jwalijose, nambo ampele Mwanagwe ukombole wose wakwalamula ŵandu,
For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath given all judgment to the Son:
23 kuti ŵandu wose anchimbichisye Mwana mpela yakuti pakwachimbichisya Atati. Mundu jwalijose jwangakunchimbichisya Mwana ngakunchimbichisya Atati juŵantumile.”
that every man may honor the Son, as he honoreth the Father. He that honoreth not the Son, honoreth not the Father that sent him.
24 “Ngunsalila isyene, jwakulipikanila liloŵe lyangu ni kwakulupilila ŵandumile une ŵala, jwelejo akwete umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Nombejo ngaalamulikwa ng'oo, pakuŵa amasile kukopoka muchiwa ni kwinjila mu umi. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily, I say to you, That he who heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath life eternal, and will not come into condemnation, but hath passed from death to life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Ngunsalila isyene, chikaiche katema ni sambano kaiche chanti ŵandu ŵawile chalipilikane liloŵe lya Mwana jwa Akunnungu nombe ŵandu ŵachalipilikane wo chakole umi.
Verily, verily, I say to you, That the hour cometh, and even now come, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear, will live.
26 Mpela ila Atati yatite kuŵa ndande ja umi, iyoyo peyo ampele Mwana kuŵa ndande ja umi.
For, as the Father hath life in himself, so hath he given to the Son also, to have life in himself:
27 Sooni ampele Mwana ukombole wa kulamula ligongo jwelejo ali Mwana jwa Mundu.
and hath moreover given him authority to execute judgment. But that he is the Son of man,
28 Nkachisimonga achichi pakuŵa chikaiche katema chati ŵandu wose ŵaali kumalembe chalipilikane liloŵe lyao,
wonder not at this; for the hour cometh when all that are in their graves will hear his voice;
29 nombe chasyuche, aŵala ŵaŵatendekenye yambone chasyuche ni kupata umi ni aŵala ŵaŵatendekenye yangalumbana chasyuche ni kulamulikwa.”
and will come forth; they that have done good, to the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 “Uneji jikape ngangukombola kuchitendekanya chindu kwa ukombole wangu nansyene. Ngulamula mpela inguti pakupilikana kutyochela kwa Atati, ni kulamula kwangu kuli kwa usyene pakuŵa ngangupanganya ingusaka nansyene, nambo yambone paujo pao ŵandumile une ŵala.
I can do nothing of my own pleasure; but as I hear, so I judge. And my judgment is just; for I seek not my own pleasure, but the pleasure of him that sent me.
31 “Naliŵalangaga nansyene umboni wangu uli wa unami.
If I should bear testimony respecting myself, my testimony would not be valid.
32 Nambo apali jwine jwakusala umboni pa une, noneji ngumanyilila kuti yose yakusala nkati uneji ili isyene.
There is another that beareth testimony concerning me; and I know that the testimony which he beareth concerning me is true.
33 Ŵanyamwe mwalajisye ŵantenga ku che Yohana Ŵakubatisya, ni umboni wasasile nkati une uli usyene.
Ye sent unto John; and he bore testimony to the truth.
34 Ngaŵa kuti uneji nguukulupilila umboni wa ŵandu, nambo ngusala yelei kuti ŵanyamwe nkulupuswe.
And I have not received testimony from men: but these things I say, that ye may live.
35 Che Yohana ŵaliji mpela lumuli lulwakolelaga ni kulanguchisya, ni ŵanyamwe mwaliji chile kusengwa ni lilanguka lyakwe kwa katema pe.
He was a burning and shining lamp; and ye were willing for a time, to glory in his light.
36 Nambo uneji ngwete umboni kukwangu wauli wekulungwa kupunda u che Yohana. Pakuŵa masengo gingugapanganya gaambele Atati malichisye ni gagakulosya pangasisika kuti Atati ni ŵandumile.
But I have a testimony, which is greater than that of John; for the works which my Father hath given me to accomplish, these works which I do, testify of me that the Father hath sent me.
37 Atati uŵandumile, iyoyo akusala umboni nkati une. Ŵanyamwe nganimme kulipilikana liloŵe lyao atamuno kukulola ku meeso kwao,
And the Father who sent me, he testifieth of me. Ye have not at any time heard his voice, nor have ye seen his visage.
38 ni liloŵe lyao ngalikutama nkati mwenu, pakuŵa nganimunkulupilila ajula juŵamtumile.
And his word abideth not in you, because ye believe not in him whom he hath sent.
39 Nkugasosasosa Malembelo ga Akunnungu nchiganisyaga kuti mu gelego chimpate umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. Ni Malembelo ga Akunnungu go gakuŵalanga umboni nkati une! (aiōnios g166)
Search the scriptures; for in them, ye think, there is life eternal for you; and they testify of me. (aiōnios g166)
40 Ni ŵanyamwe ngankusaka kwika kukwangu kuti nkole umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi.
And ye are unwilling to come to me, that life eternal may be yours.
41 “Ngangusosa kuchimbichikwa ni ŵandu.
I do not receive glory from men.
42 Nambo ngummanyilila ŵanyamwe kuti nganinkola unonyelo wa Akunnungu mmitima jenu.
But I know you, that the love of God is not in you.
43 Uneji iiche kwa ulamusi wa Atati ŵangu, ni ŵanyamwe nganimungulupilila. Aikaga mundu jwine kwa ulamusi wakwe nsyene, chimunkulupilile.
I came in the name of my Father, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 Ana chinkombole chinauli kungulupilila iŵaga ŵanyamwe nkusaka kulapikwa kutyochela kwa achinjenu nambo nkukana kulapikwa kwakukutyochela kwa Akunnungu ŵaali jikape?
How can ye believe, who receive glory from one another, and seek not the glory which cometh from God only?
45 Nkaganisyaga kuti uneji chinambechetele kwa Atati. Che Musa junkunlolela ŵanyamwe ni juchambechetele kwa Atati.
Do ye suppose, that I shall accuse you before the Father? There is one that will accuse you, that Moses, on whom ye rely.
46 Nkankulupilile che Musa nkaangulupilile ni une ŵakwe pakuŵa che Musa ŵalembile ngani syangu.
For, if ye believed Moses, ye would also believe me; for Moses wrote concerning me.
47 Nambo iŵaga ngankugakulupilila gaŵagalembile che Musa gala, sano chinkombole chinauli kugakulupilila ginguŵecheta?”
But if ye believe not his writings, how will ye believe my words?
