Yohana 8
1 Pakumala yeleyo Che Yesu ŵajawile ku chikwesya cha Miseituni.
But Jesus went to 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 returned early in the morning into the temple, and all the people came to 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 to Him a woman taken in adultery;
4 Nipele ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Jwakwiganya, jwankongwe ju akamwilwe ali nkutenda chikululu.
and setting her in the midst, they said to Him, "This woman was caught in the very act, committing adultery.
5 Mmalajisyo getu che Musa ŵatulajisye yele, jwankongwe mpela aju aulajikwe kwa kuputikwa ni maganga. Nambi mmwejo nkuti uli?”
Now Moses in the law has commanded us that such women 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 to tempt Him, that they might have something to accuse Him of. But Jesus stooping down, wrote with his finger upon the ground.
7 Paŵapundile kumbusya, Che Yesu ŵajinamukwiche ni kwasalila, “Naga kwana mundu jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe jwanganakola sambi aŵe jwaandanda kumponya liganga.”
And as they continued asking Him, He raised himself up and said unto them, "Let him that is without sin among you, first cast a stone at her."
8 Nipele ŵakoteme sooni ni kulemba paasi.
Then He stooped down again and wrote on the ground.
9 Paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵatandite kutyoka jumo jumo achilongolelaga achachekulu. Che Yesu ŵasigele jikape ni jwankongwe jula ali ajimi palapala.
But when they heard his answer, being convicted by their own conscience, they went out one by one, beginning at the elder, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst of the people.
10 Ni Che Yesu paŵajinamukwiche ŵambusisye jwankongwe jula, “Amao, ŵandu ŵala alinji kwapi? Uli, ngapagwa jwanlamwile mmwejo?”
Then Jesus rising up, and seeing none but the woman, said unto her, 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.”
And she said, None, Lord. Then said Jesus unto her, Neither do I condemn thee, Go thy way 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 to 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 to Him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy testimony 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 witness of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I go.
15 Ŵanyamwe nkulamula kwa ng'anisyo sya chiundu nambo uneji ngangunlamula mundu.
Ye judge according to the flesh, but I judge no man as yet:
16 Naatamuno nalamulaga, ulamusi wangu uli usyene ligongo uneji ngangupanganya masengo jika, Atati ŵandumile une wo ali pamo ni une.
though if I should judge, my judgement is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father that sent me.
17 Ilembekwe mmalajisyo genu, umboni wa ŵandu ŵaŵili uli wa usyene.
And it is written in your own law, that the testimony of two persons is valid.
18 Uneji ngusala umboni wangu nansyene, ni Atati ŵandumile nombe akusala umboni wangu.”
Now I am one, who bear witness of myself; and the Father, who 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 would 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, when He was teaching in the temple: and no one 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.”
Jesus therefore said unto them again, "I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: where I go ye cannot come."
22 Nipele, achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵatite, “Ana chaliulaje? Ana kwa ligongo chi akuti, ‘Kungwaula ŵanyamwe ngankombola kwika?’”
The Jews therefore said, What! will He kill himself; that He says, where I am going, 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.”
Therefore I said unto you, that ye shall die in your sins; for if ye believe not that I am the Messiah, 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 to Him, Who art thou? And Jesus answered them, Even the same that I told you at first.
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 concerning you: but I only say, He that sent me is true, and I declare to the world those things, which I have heard from Him.
27 Ŵanyawo nganaimanyilila kuti Che Yesu ŵaŵechetaga nawo yankati ngani sya Akunnungu, Atati ŵao.
But they did not know that He spake unto 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.
Jesus therefore said unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as my Father hath instructed 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 always do the things that are pleasing to 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.
Therefore said Jesus to the Jews that believed on Him, If ye continue in my word, ye are indeed my disciples.
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 are the seed of Abraham, and never were slaves to any one, how then dost thou say, 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 maketh a practice of sin, is the servant of sin.
Now the servant does not continue always in the family: but the Son abideth always. (aiōn g165)
36 Nipele Mwana annechelesyaga ŵanyamwe nombe chimbe ŵalecheleswe kusyenesyene.
If therefore the Son 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 the seed of Abraham, 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 what 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 Him, Abraham is our father, Jesus replied, If ye were the children of Abraham, 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, who have told you the truth which I have heard from God: Abraham did not thus.
41 Ŵanyamwe nkutendekanya ilaila yaitesile atati ŵenu.” Ŵanyawo ŵansalile, “Uweji nganitupagwe kwa chikululu! Tukwete atati ŵamope, ŵelewo ali Akunnungu.”
But ye do the works of your father. Then said they unto Him, We are 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 came forth, and do come, from God; neither came I of myself, but He sent me.
43 Ana kwachichi ngankugapilikanichisya ginguŵecheta ga? Ligongo ngankusaka kugapilikana maloŵe gangu.
And why do ye not understand my language, but because ye cannot bear my doctrine?
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 are bent upon doing the lusts of your father: he was a murderer from the beginning, and continued not in the truth: for there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh like himself, for he is a liar, and the father of such.
45 Pakuŵa uneji ngunsalila usyene, ŵanyamwe ngankungulupilila.
And because I say the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convicteth me of sin?
46 Mwa ŵanyamwe nduni juchakombole kuŵalanga umboni kuti uneji ngwete sambi? Ana iŵaga nguŵecheta usyene, kwachichi ngankungulupilila?
And if I speak 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, receiveth the words of God; but ye therefore receive them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Ŵayahudi ŵanjanjile Che Yesu, “Ana nganitusala uchenene kuti mmwejo ndi Msamalia ni sooni nkwete lisoka?”
The Jews therefore answered and said unto Him. Do we not rightly say, that thou art a Samaritan, and art possessed by a demon?
49 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Uneji nganingola lisoka. Uneji ngwachimbichisya Atati ŵangu, nambo ŵanyamwe ngankunjimbichisya une.
Jesus answered I am not possessed by a demon, but I honour my Father, though ye dishonour me.
50 Uneji ngangulisosela ukulu wangu nansyene. Apali jumo jwakuusosela ukulu wo, nombejo ali jwakulamula.
And I seek not my own glory; there is One that seeketh it, 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 any one keep my word, 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)
The Jews therefore said unto Him, Now we are sure that thou art possessed by a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets too; and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste of death: art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? (aiōn g165)
53 Ana mmwejo nkulitenda ŵakulungwa kwapunda atati ŵetu che Iblahimu juŵawile jula? Natamuno ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ŵawile nombewo. Sambano mmwejo nkulitenda ŵaani?”
and the prophets are dead: whom dost thou pretend to be?
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 honor is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth 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.
And yet ye know him not; but I know Him: and if I should say, That I know Him not, I shall be like you, a liar: but I know Him, and obey his word.
56 Atati ŵenu che Iblahimu ŵasangalele aliwone lyuŵa lya kwika kwangu, nombewo ŵaliweni ni ŵasengwile.”
Your father Abraham longed 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, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Pelepo ŵalokwete maganga achisakaga kwaponya, nambo Che Yesu ŵaalesile ni kutyoka pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu.
Therefore they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus concealed Himself, and went out of the temple, through the midst of them, and so passed on.
