John 8
1 But Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
Lino Yesu walaya ku mulundu wa ma olifi.
2 And in the morning he again entered the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.
Mumene mene walaya ku Nga'nda yaLesa. Bantu bonse balesa kulyendiye, walekala panshi nekutatika kubeyisha.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman who had been detected in adultery; and they made her stand in the midst,
Bafalisi neBeshiwiyisha Milawo balaleta mutukashi ngobalekata bupombo, nekumwimanika pakati pabo.
4 and said to him: Teacher, this woman was detected in adultery; in the very act.
Lino balambila Yesu, “Bashikwiyisha, mutukashuyu wacanika kapombolwa.
5 Now Moses, in his law, commanded us, that such should be stoned; but what say you?
Lino kwelana ne Milawo Lesa njalapa Mose mutukashi uyu wela kupwaiwa mabwe. Nomba amwe mulambangapongaconi?”
6 This they said to tempt him, that they might bring an accusation against him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
Balamwipusha mwipusho uyu pakumwelesha kwambeti bamucaninepo mulandu. Nomba Yesu pacindi copeleco walakotama, nekutatika kulemba panshi ne munwe wakendi.
7 But as they continued to ask him, he stood up, and said to them: Let him among you who is without sin, first throw a stone at her.
Pakupitilisha kumwipusha, Yesu walakotamuka nekubambileti, “pakati penu uyo utana kucimwapo, ayambilile kumanta libwe amupwaye mutukashi uyu.”
8 And again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
Mpwalambeco, kayi walakotama nekupitilisha kulemba panshi.
9 But having heard him, and being convicted by their conscience, they went out, one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
Mpobalanyumfweco bantu balatatika kufumapo umo neumo, bamakulene ebalatatikila kupalangana. Lino palashalowa mutukashi usa kaliwemana pantangu pa Yesu.
10 And when Jesus stood up, and saw no one but the woman, he said to her: Woman, where are those who accused you? Has no one condemned you?
Yesu walakotamuka nekumwipusha, “Mutukashi obe balayikupeyo bakupanga mulandu? Sena paliya nambi umo lashalapo kukupa mulandu?”
11 She said: No one, sir. Jesus said to her: Neither do I condemn you; go, and sin no more.
Mutukashi walambeti, “Mwami, paliya.” Neye Yesu walamwambileti, “Nenjame nkandakupanga mulandu sobwe. Koya nsombi kuyambila lelo kotakabweshapo kwipisha.”
12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying: I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Kayi Yesu walambila bantu bonse, “Ame njame mumuni ulamunikilinga bantu bonse. Muntu lankonkonga, nteshi akende mumushinshe, nsombi nakekale mu mumuni weshikupa buyumi.”
13 Then the Pharisees said to him: You testify concerning yourself; your testimony is not worthy of credit.
Nabo Bafalisi balamwambileti, “Ulalinshilinga bukamboni omwine. Bukamboni ubo ntebo bwakubinga.”
14 Jesus answered and said to them: Though I testify concerning myself, my testimony is worthy of credit; for I know whence I came, and whither I go. But you know not whence I came, and whither I go.
Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Nambi ndalinshilinga bukamboni, bukamboni bwakame nibwakubinga, pakwinga ndikwinshi nkondalafuma nenkondenga. Nsombi amwe nkamukwinshi nkondalafuma, nambi nenkondenga.
15 You judge according to the flesh; I judge no man.
Amwe mukute kombolosha pakukonka miyeyo ya bantu. Ame nkankute kombolosha muntu uliyense.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me.
Nsombi ndambeti ng'omboloshe, kombolosha kwakame ngakuba kwancine ncine, pakwinga nkandipo ndenka sobwe, pakwinga Bata balantuma balinenjame.
17 It is also written in your law, The testimony of two is worthy of credit.
Kayi mumilawo yenu mwalembweti bukamboni bwa bantu babili nibwakubinga
18 I am one that testify concerning myself, and the Father who sent me, testifies of me.
Ame nkute kulinshila bukamboni, nabo Bata balantuma bakute kunjinshila bukamboni.”
19 Then they said to him: Where is your Father? Jesus answered: You know neither me, nor my Father. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also.
Lino nabo balamwipusheti, “Baiso abo balikupeyo?” Yesu walambeti, “Nkamunjishi, kayi ne Bata nkamubenshi. Nimunjinshi nimubenshi Bata.”
20 These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple; and no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
Yesu walamba maswi awa mpwalikwiyisha mu Nga'nda ya Lesa, mucipinda cakutambulilamo bupe bwa bantu. Paliya walamwikata, pakwinga cindi cakendi calinkacitana cishika.
21 Then spoke Jesus to them again; I go away, and you will seek me, and in your sin you shall die; whither I go, you can not come.
Panyuma pakendi Yesu kayi walabambileti, “Ame ndenga, nimukanangaule, nomba nkondenga amwe nkamwela kushikako nimukafwilowa mubwipishi.”
22 Then said the Jews: Will he kill himself, because he says, Whither I go, you can not come?
Lino Bayuda balambeti, “Sena layandanga kulishina, pakwambeti, ‘nkondenga, nkamwela kushikako?”
23 And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world.
Yesu walabambileti, “Amwe njamwe ba pacishi capanshi pano, ame ndalafuma kwilu. Amwe mobapanshi pano, nsombi ame ntame wapacishi capanshi sobwe.
24 Therefore said I to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am, He, you shall die in your sins.
Weco ndalamwambilingeti. nimukafwile mubwipishi bwenu. Pakwinga na nkamulashomonga kwambeti njame wopeloyo lalyambanga, nimukafwile mubwipishi bwenu.”
25 Then they said to him: Who are you? And Jesus said to them: The same that I said to you at the beginning.
Lino nabo balamwipusheti, “Obe njobe bani?” Yesu walambeti, “Mbuli ncondamwambilanga pakuyamba.
26 I have many things to say, and to judge with respect to you; but he that sent me is true; and what things I have heard from him, these I speak to the world.
Nkute bingi byakwamba nebyakumomboloshelapo. Walantuma niwancine ncine, kayi nkute kwambila bantu bapanshi pano bintu mbyendalanyumfwa kulyendiye.”
27 They knew not that he was speaking to them of the Father.
Bantu basa baliya kwinshibeti Yesu walikwamba sha Baishi.
28 Then said Jesus to them: When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.
Lino Yesu walabambileti, “Mwakantantika Mwana Muntu, popelapo nimukenshibeti njame wopeloyo lalyambanga. Nimukenshibe kwambeti nkankute kwinsa bintu pandenka, nkute kwamba ibyo Bata mbyobalanjiyisha.
29 And he that sent me is with me. The Father has not left me alone, because I always do what is pleasing to him.
Nsombi uyo walantuma, uli pamo nenjame. Nendi nkakute kunshiya ndenka, pakwinga cindi conse nkute kwinsa byeshi kumukondwelesha.”
30 While he was speaking these words, many believed on him.
Mpobalanyumfwa Yesu nkamba makani awa, bantu bangi balamushoma.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews that believed on him: If you continue in my word, you are my disciples indeed,
Yesu walambila bantu abo balamushoma, “Na mulakonkelenga kwiyisha kwakame cindi conse, cakubinga nimube beshikwiya bakame.
32 and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Nimwinshibe cakubinga, kayi naco cakubinga nicikamusungululeni.”
33 They answered him: We are the posterity of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How say you, You shall be made free?
Nabo balambeti, “Afwe njafwe bana ba Abulahamu, kayi nkatuna tubapo basha ba muntu uliyense. Nomba aconi ulambangeti, ‘nimukasungululwe?”
34 Jesus answered them: Verily, verily I say to you, whoever works sin is the servant of sin.
Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Ndamwambilinga cakubinga kwambeti muntu uliyense lenshinga bwipishi nimusha kubwipishi.
Musha nkakute kwikalisha panga'nda ya mwami wakendi cindi conse, nsombi mwinepabo. (aiōn g165)
36 Therefore, if the Son make you free, you shall be free indeed.
Lino namwana lamusungululu, okwambeti mulasungululwa cancine ncine.
37 I know that you are the posterity of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.
Ndicinshi kwambeti njamwe bana ba Abulahamu, nsombi mulayandanga kunshina, pakwinga nkamulasumininga maswi akame mumyoyo mwenu.
38 I speak what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have seen with your father.
Ame nkute kwamba ibyo mbyondalabona kuli Bata, nsombi amwe mulenshinga mbyomwalanyumfwa kuli bameshenu.”
39 They answered and said to him: Abra ham is our father. Jesus said to them: If you were the children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham.
Nabo balambeti, “Bameshetu ni Abulahamu.” Neye Yesu walabambileti, “nemuli bana ba Abulahamu, ne mulenshinga bintu mbyalikwinsa.
40 But now you seek to kill me, a man that has spoken to you the truth, which I have heard from God; this Abraham did not.
Nomba lino mulayandanga kunshina, ame ndamwambilinga makani akubinga ngondalanyumfwa kuli Lesa. Abulahamu liya kwinsapo bintu byamushobo uyu sobwe.
41 You do the works of your father. They said to him: We were not born of lewdness; we have one father, God.
Amwe mulenshinga ibyo bameshenu mbyobakute kwinsa.” Nabo balamwambileti, “ntafwe bana bamu bupombo sobwe, tukutowa mushali wetu umo, Lesa.”
42 Jesus said to them: If God were your father, you would love me; for I came forth from God and have come hither; nor, indeed, did I come of myself, but he sent me.
Yesu walambeti, “Lesa nabanga mushali wenu, ne mwalansuna, pakwinga ndalafuma kuli Lesa, nomba lino ndikuno. Ndiya kwisa mungofu shakame, nsombi sha uyo walantuma.
43 Why do you not know what I say? Because you can not understand my words.
Nomba nicani nkamulanyumfunga mbyondambanga? Pakwinga nkamwela kukonsha nekunyumfwa maswi akame.
44 You are of your father, the devil; and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks that which is false, he speaks from what is his own; for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Amwe mwalafuma kuli mushali wenu Satana. Pakwinga emubepeshi kayi shikushina kufuminowa cindi cakunyuma kayi, mulyendiye muliya cancine ncine sobwe. Ambanga ukute kwambowa bya mumutwi wakendi
45 But because I speak the truth, you believe me not.
Nsombi ame nkute kwamba cakubinga, weco nkamulanshomonga.
46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me?
Nibani pakati penu welakumpa mulandu wabwipishi? Nipacebo cini ndamwambilanga cakubinga, nkamulashomonga?
47 He that is of God, hears God’s words. For this reason you do not hear them, because you are not of God.
Muntu waLesa ukute kukutika maswi a Lesa, nomba amwe mulakananga kunyumfwa, pakwinga ntamwe bantu baLesa.”
48 The Jews answered, and said to him: Do we not well say that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?
Popelapo ba Yuda balamwipusheti, “Sena afwe nkatulambanga cakubingeti njobe wakuSamaliya, kayi wekatwa ne mushimu waipa?”
49 Jesus answered: I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
Yesu walambeti, “Ndiyawa mushimu waipa. Nkute kulemeka Bata, nsombi amwe nkamukute kumpa bulemu.
50 I seek not my own glory; there is one that seeks and judges.
Nsombi nkandayandanga kulemekwa, nsombi nkwali layandangeti mpewe bulemu, kayi eukute kombolosha mubululami.
Cakubinga ndamwambilinga muntu anyumfwa maswi akame, nteshi akafwe sobwe.” (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Jews to him: Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
Lino bantu balamwambileti, “Lino tulenshibi kwambeti ukute mushimu waipa. Abulahamu nebashinshimi bonse balafwa! Nomba obe ulambangeti muntu anyumfwa makani akobe nteshi akafwe sobwe. (aiōn g165)
53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead; whom do you make yourself?
Sena obe wapita Abulahamu mushali wetu mukulukulu nebashinshimi bonse balafwa? Nomba ulayeyengeti njobe bani?”
54 Jesus answered: If I honor myself, my honor is nothing; it is my Father that honors me, of whom you say, that he is your God.
Yesu walambeti, “Na kandilipa bulemu, bulemubo nibwabulyo. Nomba Bata, bakute kumpa bulemu, abo nenjamwe mbomulambangeti eLesa wenu.
55 And yet you have not known him. But I know him; and if I should say that I do not know him, I should be like yourselves, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word.
Amwe muliya kumwinshiba, nsombi ame ndimwinshi, nendalambeti nkandimwinshi nendalaba mubepeshi mbuli ncemubele. Nomba ame ndimwinshi weco nkute kunyumfwa maswi akendi.
56 Abraham, your father, rejoiced that he could see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.
Mushali wenu mukulukulu Abulahamu walikuba walasekelela kubona kwisa kwakame. Kayi walakondwa.”
57 Then the Jews said to him: You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?
Lino ba Yuda balamwipusheti, “Byaka byakobe nkabina bikwana nambi makumi asanu, ngowambaconi eti walamubona Abulahamu?”
58 Jesus said to them: Verily, verily I say to you, before Abraham came into being, I was.
Yesu walambeti, “Ndamwambilinga cakubinga, Abulahamu nkatanasemwa, ndalikubapo.”
59 Then they took up stones to throw at him. But Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them; and so passed by.
Lino mpobalanyumfweco balabwesa mabwe kwambeti bamupwaye. Nsombi Yesu walasolama ne kupita mubantu nekufuma mu Nga'nda ya Lesa.
