John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Kubwambilo gwaliga gulio Omusango, no Musango aliga amwi na Nyamuanga, Na Musango aligaali Nyamuanga.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
Oyo, Musango, mubwambilo aliga amwi Na Nyamuanga.
3 Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made.
Bhinu byona byakolelwe okutula kumwene atakabheye omwene chitalio nolwo chinu chimwi echo chakakolelwe.
4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men.
Bwikalo bhaye bhaliga bhuanga, no bhuanga bwaliga bwelu bwa bhanu bhona.
5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Bwelu nibwatika muchisute, nolwo echisute chitalisimishe.
6 There came a man who was sent from God. His name was John.
Aligaalio omunu oyo aliga atumwilwe okusoka Kunyamuanga unu lisina aliga Yohana.
7 He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.
Ejile okubhambalila obwelu, koleleki bhatule okwikilisha okutula kumwene.
8 He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.
Yohana aliga atali bwelu, nawe ejile okubhambalila obwelu.
9 The true Light who gives light to every man was coming into the world.
Obhwo bhwaliga bhuli bwelu bhwe echimali obhwo bhwaliga nibhuja muchalo obhwelu Obhwo nibhusosha obhwelu kubhuli munu.
10 He was in the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him.
Aligali musi, na isi yakolelwe okutula kumwene, na isi itamumenyele.
11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
Ejile kwe bhinu byaye, na bhamu bhatamulamiye.
12 But to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—
Nawe kwa bhafu bhanu bhamulamiye, bhekilisishe lisina lyaye, kwa bhanu abhayanile okubha bhana bha Nyamuanga,
13 children born not of blood, nor of the desire or will of man, but born of God.
Bhanu bhatebhuywe, atali kwa manyinga, okubha kwe lyenda lyo munu, nawe ku Nyamuanga wenyele.
14 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Newe musango nakolwa mubhili nekala kweswe, nichilola likusho lyaye, likusho lilabha lya munu wenyele oyo ejile okusoka ku Lata, ejuye echigongo ne chimali.
15 John testified concerning Him. He cried out, saying, “This is He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’”
Yohana nabhambalila omwene naikila ingulu ati,”Unu niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,”uliya kaja kulwani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha abheyeo nichali anye.”
16 From His fullness we have all received grace upon grace.
Kwo kubha okusoka mukukumila bwaye eswe chiyabhilwe kwe chigongo.
17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Okubha ebhilagilo bhiletelwe okutulila ku Musa. Echigongo nechimali byejile ku Yesu Kirsto.
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is Himself God and is at the Father’s side, has made Him known.
Atalio munu oyo amulolele Nyumuanga mwanya gwona. Omunu wenyele unu ni Nyamuanga, ali muchifubha cha Lata, amukolelede omwene bhamumenyega.
19 And this was John’s testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him, “Who are you?”
Na bhunu nibhubhambasi bwa Yohana omwanya abhagabhisi na bhalawi bhamutumele kwaye na Bhayahudi nibhamubhusha ati, Awe niga?”
20 He did not refuse to confess, but openly declared, “I am not the Christ.”
Nawe atetimatile atali, nabhasubya,”Anye atali Krisito.”
21 “Then who are you?” they inquired. “Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.”
Kutyo nibhamubhusha ati,”kulwejo awe ni niga woli?” Awe ni Eliya? Naika ati,”Anye nitali.”nibhaika ati, Awe ni muligi? Nasubya,”Uli.”
22 So they said to him, “Who are you? We need an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
Nibhamubwila ati,”Awe nawega, koleleki chibhayane lisubyo abhobhachitule”? Owibhambalilaatiki awe wenyele?”
23 John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet: “I am a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”
Naika, “anye ni bhulaka bhaye unu ali ibhala:'Mugololele injila ya Lata bhugenyi Alabha omulagi Isaya kutyo aikile.”
24 Then the Pharisees who had been sent
Bhaliga bhali bhanu bhatumilwe okusoka ku bhafalisayo. Nibhamubhusha ati ni bhaika,
25 asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”
“Kulwaki oubhatija labha awe atali Kristo amwi Eliya amwi mulagi?”
26 “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands One you do not know.
Yohana nabhasubya naika ati,”enibhatija kwa manji. Nolwo kutyo agati yemwe kemelegulu omunu oyo mutakumenya.
27 He is the One who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.”
Unu niwe kaja kulwanye. Anye niteile kugesha olukobha lwa bhilato byaye.”
28 All this happened at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Emisago jinu jitagendeleye eyo Bethania, kungego ya Yorodani enu Yohana aliga nabhatija.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Mwejo Yohana namulola Yesu naja kwaye naika ati,”Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga unu kagega ebhibhibhi bye chalo!
30 This is He of whom I said, ‘A man who comes after me has surpassed me because He was before me.’
Oyo niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,” oyo kaja inyuma yani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha niwe atangatiye.'
31 I myself did not know Him, but the reason I came baptizing with water was that He might be revealed to Israel.”
Nitamumenyele omwene, nawe yakolelwe kutyo koleleki abhulisibwe ku Israeli, ati nejile nimbatija kwa manji.”
32 Then John testified, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove and resting on Him.
Yohana nabhambalila,”nalola Omwoyo neka okusoka mulwile lwa injibha, ni mubhako ingulu yaye.
33 I myself did not know Him, but the One who sent me to baptize with water told me, ‘The man on whom you see the Spirit descend and rest is He who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.’
Anye nitamumenyele nawe omwene oyo antumile nibhatije kwa manji nambwila ati, unu ulilola Omwoyo neka neyanja ingulu yaye, Oyo niwe kabhatija kwa Omwoyo Mwelu.'
34 I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
Nindola na nimbambalila ati onu ni Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
35 The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
Mwejo Yohana aliga emeleguyu amwi na bheigisibwa bhaye bhabhili,
36 When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
Bhamulolele Yesu nalibhata na Yohana naika ati, Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga?”
37 And when the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
Abheigisibwa bhabhili nibhamugwa Yohana naika ati bhamulubhe Yesu.
38 Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”
Lindi Yesu nainduka na bhalola abheigisibwa bhaye nibhamulubha, nabhabwila ati, Omuyenjaki?” Ni bhamusubya ati,”Rabbi, (obhugajulo bwaye'mwiigisha,'wikaye aki?”
39 “Come and see,” He replied. So they went and saw where He was staying, and spent that day with Him. It was about the tenth hour.
Nabhabwila ati,”muje mulole.”Mbe nibhagenda nibhalola anu aliga ekaye; nibheyanja amwi nage lusiku olwo, Okubha yaliga uti saa ekumi kutya.
40 Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard John’s testimony and followed Jesus.
Oumwi wa bhaliya bhabhili abhobhamunguwe Yohana naika no kumulubha Yesu aliga Andrea, owabho Simoni Petro.
41 He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).
Namulola omula wabho Simoni na mubwila ati,”Chamulolele Masiya”(obhugajulo bwalyo ati Kristo).
42 Andrew brought him to Jesus, who looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which is translated as Peter).
Namuleta ku Yesu. Yesu namulolelela naika ati,”Awe ni Simoni omwana wa Yohana”ulibhilikilwa Kefa,”(obhugajulo bwalyo' Petro').
43 The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow Me.”
lusiku olwolwalubhiye omwanya Yesu nenda okugenda Galilaya, amubwene Filipo namubwila ati,”niundubhe anye.”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
Filipo aligali wa Bethsaida, mu musi gwa Andrea na Petro.
45 Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
Filipo namubhona Nathanaeli namubhila ati, Chamubhona uliya unu Musa andikile emisango jaye ne bhilagilo nabhalagi. Yesu omwana wa Yusufu, okusoka Nazareti.
46 “Can anything good come from Nazareth?” Nathanael asked. “Come and see,” said Philip.
Nathanaeli namubwila ati,”Mbe echinu chakisi echitula okusoka Nazareti?”Filipo namubwila ati, Ija olole.”
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.”
Yesu namulola Nathanaeli naja kumwene naika ati,”Lola, Omwisraeli wechimali wechimali unu atali bhuligelige kwaye!”
48 “How do You know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”
Nathanaeli namubhwila ati,” Wamenyeyeaki anye?” yesu namusubya namubwila ati,”achali Filipo okubhilikila uli asi yo mutini, gwokulola.”
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael answered, “You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
Nathanaeli nasubya,”Rabi awe uli mwana wa Nyamuanga! Awe ni Mukama wa Israeli”!
50 Jesus said to him, “Do you believe just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.”
Yeau nasubya namubwila ati, kwo kubha nakubwiliye' nakulolele asi yo mutini' mbe wekilisha? oulola ebhikolwa byafu okukila bhinu.”
51 Then He declared, “Truly, truly, I tell you, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
Yesu naika ati,”Nichimali chimali enibhabwila ati mulilola olwile lwigukile na mulibhalola bhamalaika nibhalinya na nibheka ingulu yo Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
