Yohana 8
1 Pakumala yeleyo Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chikwesya cha Miseituni.
Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 Malaŵi jakwe kundaŵi pe, Che Yesu ŵajawile sooni pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Ŵandu wose ŵansyungwile, nombewo ŵatemi ni kutanda kwajiganya.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 Nipele Ŵakwiganya malajisyo pamo ni Mafalisayo ŵannyichenawo jwankongwe juŵakamwilwe ali nkutenda chikululu. Ŵanjimiche jwankongwe jo paujo pa ŵandu.
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 Nipele ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Jwakwiganya, jwankongwe ju akamwilwe ali nkutenda chikululu.
They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Mmalajisyo getu che Musa ŵatulajisye yele, jwankongwe mpela aju aulajikwe kwa kuputikwa ni maganga. Nambi mmwejo nkuti uli?”
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 Ŵatite yeleyo kuti ŵalinje Che Yesu akole chakumbechetela. Nambo Che Yesu ŵakoteme ni kulemba paasi ni chala chakwe.
This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with [his] finger wrote on the ground, [ as though he heard them not].
7 Paŵapundile kumbusya, Che Yesu ŵajinamukwiche ni kwasalila, “Naga kwana mundu jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe jwanganakola sambi aŵe jwaandanda kumponya liganga.”
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Nipele ŵakoteme sooni ni kulemba paasi.
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 Paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵatandite kutyoka jumo jumo achilongolelaga achachekulu. Che Yesu ŵasigele jikape ni jwankongwe jula ali ajimi palapala.
And they which heard [it], being convicted by [their own] conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, [even] unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Ni Che Yesu paŵajinamukwiche ŵambusisye jwankongwe jula, “Amao, ŵandu ŵala alinji kwapi? Uli, ngapagwa jwanlamwile mmwejo?”
When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 Jwankongwe jula ŵajanjile, “Ambuje, ngapagwa namose jumo jwanamwile!” Nombe Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Uneji nombe ngangunlamula. Njaule, nambo kutandila sambano nkatenda sambi sooni.”
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Che Yesu ŵakungulwiche sooni ni ŵandu achitiji, “Uneji ndili lilanguka lya pachilambo pano. Mundu jwalijose jwakunguya uneji ngajenda mu chipi ng'o, nambo chakole ni lilanguka lya umi.”
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Nipele Mafalisayo ŵansalile, “Nkusala umboni wenu mwasyene, sambano umboni wenu uli wa unami.”
The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
14 Che Yesu ŵaajanjile, “Atamuno nasalaga umboni wangu nansyene, umboni wangu uli usyene ligongo uneji nakumanyi kungopochele ni kungwaula. Nambo mwanya ngankukumanyilila kungopochele ni kungwaula.
Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
15 Ŵanyamwe nkulamula kwa ng'anisyo sya chiundu nambo uneji ngangunlamula mundu.
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 Naatamuno nalamulaga, ulamusi wangu uli usyene ligongo uneji ngangupanganya masengo jika, Atati ŵandumile une wo ali pamo ni une.
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 Ilembekwe mmalajisyo genu, umboni wa ŵandu ŵaŵili uli wa usyene.
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 Uneji ngusala umboni wangu nansyene, ni Atati ŵandumile nombe akusala umboni wangu.”
I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
19 Pelepo ŵambusisye, “Ana Atati ŵenu ali kwapi?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ŵanyamwe ngankuumanyilila uneji atamuno ngankummanyilila Atati ŵangu. Nkaamanyilile uneji nkaamanyilile Atati ŵangu nombe.”
Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.
20 Che Yesu ŵaŵechete maloŵe go mu chuumba cha mbiko, paŵaliji nkwiganya pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu. Ni nganapagwa mundu juŵankamwile pakuŵa katema kakwe kaliji kakanaŵe kwika.
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
21 Che Yesu ŵaasalile sooni, “Uneji ngwaula ni ŵanyamwe chimuusose, nambo chimmwe mu sambi syenu. Kungwaula uneji, ŵanyamwe ngankombola kwika.”
Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
22 Nipele, achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵatite, “Ana chaliulaje? Ana kwa ligongo chi akuti, ‘Kungwaula ŵanyamwe ngankombola kwika?’”
Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe nkopochele papapa pachilambo cha paasi, nambo uneji ngopochele kwinani. Ŵanyamwe nlinji ŵa pachilambo pano, nambo uneji nguniŵa jwa pachilambo pano.
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 Kwaligongo lyo nansalile kuti chimmwe mu sambi syenu. Pakuŵa ngankukulupilila kuti, ‘Uneji ndili jwelejo’ chimmwe mu sambi syenu.”
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
25 Nombe ŵanyawo ŵambusisye, “Ana mmwejo ni ŵaani?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uneji ndili jwelejo, mpela inansalile chitandile kundanda!
Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even [the same] that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 Ngwete yejinji yakuŵecheta ni kulamula nkati ŵanyamwe. Nambo ŵandumile une ali ŵausyene, none ngwasalila ŵandu wose ŵa pachilambo yeila pe imbilikene kutyochela kwa ŵelewo.”
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
27 Ŵanyawo nganaimanyilila kuti Che Yesu ŵaŵechetaga nawo yankati ngani sya Akunnungu, Atati ŵao.
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Pachimunnyakule Mwana jwa Mundu, pelepo ni pachimmanyilile kuti, ‘Uneji ndili jwelejo,’ ni chimmanyilile kuti ngangupanganya chachili chose nansyene, nambo nguŵecheta yeila pe inyiganyikwe ni Atati.
Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 Ŵandumile ŵala ali pamo ni uneji, nganaaneka jika, pakuŵa moŵa gose nguitendekanya aila yaikwanonyela.”
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 Ŵandu ŵajinji ŵaŵampilikanile Che Yesu achiŵechetaga maloŵe ga ŵankulupilile.
As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile Ŵayahudi ŵaŵakulupilile ŵala kuti, “Mwaikamulichisyaga inanjigenye, chimme ŵakulijiganya ŵangu ŵa usyenesyene.
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed;
32 Chimuumanyilile usyene, ni usyene wo chiuntende ŵalecheleswe.”
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 Nombe ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Tuli uŵelesi u che Iblahimu ni nganituŵa achikapolo ŵa mundu jwalijose. Ana malumbo gakwe chichi pankuti, ‘Chinchilecheleswa?’”
They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Che Yesu ŵaajanjile, “Ngunsalila isyene, mundu jwalijose jwakutendekanya sambi ali kapolo jwa sambi.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: [but] the Son abideth ever. (aiōn g165)
36 Nipele Mwana annechelesyaga ŵanyamwe nombe chimbe ŵalecheleswe kusyenesyene.
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 Naimanyi kuti ŵanyamwe nlinji uŵelesi u che Iblahimu. Nambo nkusaka kumulaga ligongo nkugakana majiganyo gangu.
I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 Uneji nguŵecheta aila pe yanosisye Atati ŵangu, nambo ŵanyamwe nkupanganya aila yansalile atati ŵenu.”
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 Ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Uweji Atati ŵetu ali che Iblahimu!” Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe nkaŵe ŵanache ŵa che Iblahimu nkaitendekenye aila iŵaitendekenye che Iblahimu.
They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 Uneji nansalile usyene unaupilikene kutyochela kwa Akunnungu, atamuno yeleyo ŵanyamwe nkusaka kumulaga. Che Iblahimu nganapanganya yeleyo!
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ŵanyamwe nkutendekanya ilaila yaitesile atati ŵenu.” Ŵanyawo ŵansalile, “Uweji nganitupagwe kwa chikululu! Tukwete atati ŵamope, ŵelewo ali Akunnungu.”
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
42 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ikaŵe Akunnungu ali Atati ŵenu, nkaanonyele uneji pakuŵa uneji natyosile kwa Akunnungu ni sambano ndili papapa pepa. Nguniika kwa malamulo gangu nansyene nambo kwa malamulo ga ŵandumile une wo.
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Ana kwachichi ngankugapilikanichisya ginguŵecheta ga? Ligongo ngankusaka kugapilikana maloŵe gangu.
Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ŵanyamwe atati ŵenu Jwakulinga ni ŵanyamwe nkusaka kutendekanya yaikwanonyelesya atati ŵenu. Chitandile kundanda jwelejo ŵaliji jwakuulaga, ni nganawai kwima ku upande wa usyene, mwa jwelejo nganiupagwa usyene. Paakuŵecheta ya unami, akuŵecheta yatite kusyoŵelela, pakuŵa jwelejo ali jwa unami ni atati jwa unami wose.
Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 Pakuŵa uneji ngunsalila usyene, ŵanyamwe ngankungulupilila.
And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Mwa ŵanyamwe nduni juchakombole kuŵalanga umboni kuti uneji ngwete sambi? Ana iŵaga nguŵecheta usyene, kwachichi ngankungulupilila?
Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 Ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu akugapilikana maloŵe gakuŵecheta Akunnungu, ŵanyamwe ngankupilikana pakuŵa ŵanyamwe nganimma ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu.”
He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
48 Ŵayahudi ŵanjanjile Che Yesu, “Ana nganitusala uchenene kuti mmwejo ndi Msamalia ni sooni nkwete lisoka?”
Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uneji nganingola lisoka. Uneji ngwachimbichisya Atati ŵangu, nambo ŵanyamwe ngankunjimbichisya une.
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
50 Uneji ngangulisosela ukulu wangu nansyene. Apali jumo jwakuusosela ukulu wo, nombejo ali jwakulamula.
And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Ngunsalila isyene, mundu jwalijose jwakugakamulichisya majiganyo gangu ngaawa nambo chatame moŵa gose pangali mbesi.” (aiōn g165)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 Ŵayahudi ŵansalile Che Yesu, “Sambano twimanyi uchenene kuti mmwejo nkwete lisoka! Che Iblahimu ŵawile, ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵawile iyoyo peyo, nomwe nkuti, ‘Mundu jwalijose agakamulichisyaga majiganyo gangu ngaawa!’ (aiōn g165)
Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
53 Ana mmwejo nkulitenda ŵakulungwa kwapunda atati ŵetu che Iblahimu juŵawile jula? Natamuno ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵawile nombewo. Sambano mmwejo nkulitenda ŵaani?”
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Nalikusyaga une nansyene, ukulu wangu ngaŵa chindu. Atati ŵangu ŵankwaŵilanga Akunnungu ŵenu, ŵelewo ni ŵakungusya une.
Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 Ŵanyamwe ngannaŵe kwamanyilila, nambo uneji naamanyi. Nombe nasalaga kuti ngangwamanyilila, chime jwaunami mpela ŵanyamwe. Uneji ngwamanyilila ni ngulikamulichisya liloŵe lyao.
Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
56 Atati ŵenu che Iblahimu ŵasangalele aliwone lyuŵa lya kwika kwangu, nombewo ŵaliweni ni ŵasengwile.”
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw [it], and was glad.
57 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵaasalile, “Mmwejo nkuti uli kuti mwaweni che Iblahimu nomwe nganinnyiche yaka makumi nsano?”
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Ngunsalila isyene, akanaŵe kupagwa che Iblahimu uneji napali.”
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Pelepo ŵalokwete maganga achisakaga kwaponya, nambo Che Yesu ŵaalesile ni kutyoka pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
