John 3
1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews.
Parsawista baga ass gidida ayhudata hllaqappe issi Niqodimossa getetizaday assi dess.
2 He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs You are doing if God were not with him.”
Izi qamara Yesussakko yidi “astamare Xoossi izara dzade gidikofe atin hayta ne oothiza malalsiza malatata oothanas danda7izadeye dena. Hessa gish ne Xoossa achafe yida astamare gdidayysa nuu erosu” gidass.
3 Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”
Yesussaykka izas zaridi “ta nes tumu gays assi namantho yeletoonta agikko Xoossa kawoteth beynanas danda7ena” gidess.
4 “How can a man be born when he is old?” Nicodemus asked. “Can he enter his mother’s womb a second time to be born?”
Niqodimosaykka zaridi “histin assi cimidappe guye wandi namaantho yeletan danda7izee? Qassekka gede bee aye ul7on simi gelidi yeletanee?” gidi oychides.
5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.
Yesussyka izas hizggidi zarides “ta nes tumu gays assi hathafenne Xillo Anappe yeletontaa dishe Xoossa kawoteth gelanass danda7ena.
6 Flesh is born of flesh, but spirit is born of the Spirit.
Asappe yelettida asa. Ayanappe yeletdeye ayana.
7 Do not be amazed that I said, ‘You must be born again.’
Hessa gish (inte nmma7antho yeletanas kooshes) ta nena gida gish malaletofa.
8 The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”
Carkkoy ba koyida baga carkess, ne carkoss gireth siyasa atin izi awappe yizakkonne awa bizakko erakka, ayanafe yelettidaykka hessa malla.”
9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked.
Niqodimossay “haysi wani hnana danda7ize?” gidi oychdess.
10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and you do not understand these things?
Yesussaykka izas “Isra7ele Astemare gidautada hessa ne eriki?
11 Truly, truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, and yet you people do not accept our testimony.
Ta nes tumu gays nuni nu erazaysa yotoss, nu be7idaysa markatos gido attin inte nu markateth ekekketta.
12 If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you about heavenly things?
Ta intess hayssa ha biitta yo yotin amanonta ixikko sallo miish yotikko wosti inte wosti ammanane?
13 No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven—the Son of Man.
Saloppe dugge wopdhia asa naape attin pude saloo keziday haray onikka denna.
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,
Bazoo biittan Musey shoshu dhoqqu histi kaqqidaysatho heesathokka asa nayy dhoqqan kaqistanas beses.
Hessikka izan ammanizadeye wurikka medhina deyo demanasa gsaasa. (aiōnios g166)
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Xoossa na ammanizay wuri medhina deyo demanappe attin dhayonta mala Xoossi hayssa alameza daro siqida gish ba mixi issi na immides. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.
Xoassay ba naza ha dugge alame kittday alame asay izan amanidi atinn izi alamme asa bolla firdanas gidena.
18 Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.
Iza amanizade bola pirdetena, iza amanonntadey gdikko Xoossa na isinezan amanonta gish benipekka pirdeti utides.
19 And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil.
Pirdayyka hysamala po77oy ha alame yides shin asas oothoy iitta gdidagish asay po7oppe daro dumma doosides.
20 Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
Iita o7htzadeye wurikka poo7 dosena. izi o7thazza ita o7thooy pooncci kkazontamala izi ba huees poo77y dzzasa kezena.
21 But whoever practices the truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God.”
Tuumu o7thzadey gdiiko po77y dizasa yees. izi po77y dizzasa yeza gasoy Xoossa azazzomalla izi o7thdda o7thooy qonncana maalla.”
22 After this, Jesus and His disciples went into the Judean countryside, where He spent some time with them and baptized.
Hessafe kallidi Yesussy bena kallizaytara Yhuudaa dere bedess. heniikka Asaa xxamaqqshe istarra guusa woode gmmidess.
23 Now John was also baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because the water was plentiful there, and people kept coming to be baptized.
Hee wode salleme achaan Henoone gistattzasann daroo haathia dizza gsaa Yaansay asa xaamakchhn asayyka izzko biidi xmaqettdess.
24 (For John had not yet been thrown into prison.)
Hesa woode Yannsaay buro qaacho kketha gelii beyyna.
25 Then a dispute arose between John’s disciples and a certain Jew over the issue of ceremonial washing.
Hee wode Yaansassne isi isi ayyhudea asat. garrsane Ayyhudata gessa wooga gesii gtta polamaay denndidess.
26 So John’s disciples came to him and said, “Look, Rabbi, the One who was with you beyond the Jordan, the One you testified about—He is baptizing, and everyone is going to Him.”
Yannssa kallisayta izakoo shiqqdie “asstamare nenara Yorrdanose shaafa pinnthane neenrra issifa dishhn ne iza gess marrkatoo adezikaa heko xaamaqess asaayka izika bess gdda.”
27 John replied, “A man can receive only what is given him from heaven.
Yannsaayka isstas hzzgdess. “o7nnsika Xoossafe imetonta dishnn ayykoykka dana dandaeena.
28 You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but am sent ahead of Him.’
(Tani izafe snthataa kitadiis atin yana Krrstossay tana gdikke) gada ta intees yotooysas inte inte huerra taa marrkataa.
29 The bride belongs to the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom stands and listens for him, and is overjoyed to hear the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete.
Machii msshray dzadey izika msshra msshra lageey gdikko msshraza achaan ekkdi Msshrazzi gzazz siyees. msshrraza xxalla siiydi ufaeetess hessa gssha ta uhaaththaaysi hii polltdess.
30 He must increase; I must decrease.
Izi xooqu xooqu ganamala taaka zqqi ganamalla koshees.
31 The One who comes from above is above all. The one who is from the earth belongs to the earth and speaks as one from the earth. The One who comes from heaven is above all.
Puudape yezadey wursofe boola. garrsa biitafe gedidaay izi bitazanne biitaaz yootees (hasaees) saloope yesadeey izi wursofe bola.
32 He testifies to what He has seen and heard, yet no one accepts His testimony.
Izi ba beeydazine ba siiydazz markariis gdoo atiin zia marrsatiths ekkzadeey deena.
33 Whoever accepts His testimony has certified that God is truthful.
Iza marrkethe ekkzadeey gddko Xoossa tumanncha gdidaaysa qonncsees (besees)
34 For the One whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit.
Xoossa kittdadeey Xoossa Qalla yotiss Xssika izades ba ayana kunnthie imess.
35 The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in His hands.
Awaay ba na dosees haanizza yoo wurrsi iza kuseen yeegdees.
