John 3
1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews.
Ita, adda Fariseo nga agnagan iti Nicodemo a kameng iti konseho dagiti Judio.
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.”
Napan daytoy a tao kenni Jesus iti rabii ket kinunana kenkuana, “Rabbi, ammomi a sika ti manursuro a naggapu iti Dios agsipud ta awan ti makaaramid kadagitoy a pagilasinan nga inaramidmo malaksid no adda kenkuana ti Dios.”
3 Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”
Simmungbat ni Jesus kenkuana, “Pudno, pudno, malaksid no maysa ket maiyanak manen, saanna a makita ti pagarian iti Dios.”
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?”
Kinuna ni Nicodemo kenkuana, “Kasano a maiyanak ti tao no lakayen isuna? Saan a mabalin nga agsubli isuna iti maikadua iti uneg iti tiyan iti inana ken maiyanak manen, kabaelanna kadi?”
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.
Simmungbat ni Jesus, “Pudno, pudno malaksid no maysa ket maiyanak iti danum ken iti Espiritu, saanto isuna a makastrek iti Pagarian iti Dios.”
6 Flesh is born of flesh, but spirit is born of the Spirit.
Ti maiyanak iti lasag ket lasag, ken ti maiyanak iti Espiritu ket espiritu.
7 Do not be amazed that I said, ‘You must be born again.’
Saanka nga agsiddaaw iti imbagak kenka, 'Masapul a maiyanakka manen.'
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.”
Agpuyot ti angin no sadino ti kayatna, mangngegmo ti unina ngem saanmo nga ammo no sadino ti naggapuanna ken ti papananna. Kasta met ti isu amin a naipasngay iti Espiritu.”
9 “How can this be?” Nicodemus asked.
Simmungbat ni Nicodemo ket kinunana, “Kasano a mapasamak dagitoy a banbanag?”
10 “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and you do not understand these things?
Simmungbat ni Jesus kenkuana, “Manursuroka kadi iti Israel ta saanmo pay a naawatan dagitoy a banbanag?
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.
Pudno, pudno ibagbagami no ania ti ammomi, ken panpaneknekanmi no ania ti nakitami. Ngem dakayo a tattao saanyo nga awaten dagiti pammaneknekmi.
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?
No ibagak kadakayo a tattao ti maipanggep kadagiti naindagaan a banbanag ken saanyo a patien, kasanokayo a mamati no ibagak kadakayo dagiti nailangitan a banbanag?
13 No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven—the Son of Man.
Awan ti siasinoman a nagpangato idiay langit malaksid kenkuana a nagpababa manipud langit, ti Anak iti Tao.
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,
Kas iti panangipangato ni Moises iti uleg idiay let-ang, masapul a maipangato met uray pay ti Anak iti Tao
tapno maaddaan ti amin a mamati kenkuana iti biag nga agnanayon. (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)
Gapu ta kasta unay ti panagayat iti Dios iti lubong, intedna ti naidumduma nga Anakna tapno saan a mapukaw ti siasinoman a mamati kenkuana no diket maadaan iti biag nga agnanayon. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.
Saan nga imbaon iti Dios ti Anakna tapno ilunodna ti lubong no diket tapno maisalakan ti lubong babaen kenkuana.
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.
Saan a mailunod ti mamati kenkuana. Isuna a saan a mamati ket nailunoden gapu ta saan a namati babaen iti nagan iti naidumduma nga Anak iti Dios.
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.
Daytoy ti maigapu iti panakaukom no apay nga immay ti lawag ditoy lubong. Kaykayat dagiti tattao ti sipnget ngem ti lawag gapu ta dagiti aramidda ket dakes.
20 Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.
Ta ti amin nga agar-aramid iti dakes ket kagurada ti lawag ken saan a mapan iti lawag tapno saan a makita dagiti ar-aramidna.
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.”
Nupay kasta, mapmapan ti agar-aramid iti kinapudno iti lawag tapno nalawag a makita dagiti ar-aramidna ken ti panagtulnogda iti Dios.”
22 After this, Jesus and His disciples went into the Judean countryside, where He spent some time with them and baptized.
Napan ni Jesus ken dagiti adalanna idiay Judea kalpasan daytoy. Inusarna idiay ti tiempona kadakuada ken nangbaubautisar isuna.
23 Now John was also baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because the water was plentiful there, and people kept coming to be baptized.
Mangbaubautisar met ni Juan ita idiay Enon nga asideg iti Salim ta ad-adu ti danum sadiay. Mapmapan dagiti tattao kenkuana ken nabautisaranda
24 (For John had not yet been thrown into prison.)
ta saan pay idi a naibilleng ni Juan iti pagbaludan.
25 Then a dispute arose between John’s disciples and a certain Jew over the issue of ceremonial washing.
Nangrugi ditoy ti saan a pagkinnaawatan dagiti dadduma nga adalan ni Juan ken ti maysa a Judio maipapan iti seremonia iti panakaugas.
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.”
Napanda kenni Juan ket kinunada kenkuana, “Rabbi, ti kadwam idi a pinaneknekam, adda isuna idiay bangir iti karayan Jordan, kitaem mangbaubautisar isuna ken mapmapanda amin kenkuana.”
27 John replied, “A man can receive only what is given him from heaven.
Simmungbat ni Juan, “Saan a makaawat iti aniaman a banag ti tao malaksid no maited daytoy kenkuana manipud iti langit.
28 You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but am sent ahead of Him.’
Mabalinyo a paneknekan ti imbagak 'Saan a siak ti Cristo' ngem iti imbagak, 'Naibaonak sakbay kenkuana.'
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.
Isuna nga addaan iti nobia ket isu ti nobio. Ti agtaktakder ken agdingdingngeg ita a gayyem iti nobio ket agrag-o iti kasta unay gapu iti timek iti nobio. Daytoy met ti nangan-anay iti pagragsakak.
30 He must increase; I must decrease.
Masapul a dumakkel isuna ngem masapul met a bumassitak.
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.
Isuna nga immay a naggapu idiay ngato ket isu ti kangatoan iti amin. Isuna nga adda iti daga ket nagtaud iti daga ken agsasao kadagiti naindagaan a banbanag. Isuna nga immay a naggapu idiay langit ket isu ti kangatoan iti amin.
32 He testifies to what He has seen and heard, yet no one accepts His testimony.
Panpaneknekkanna no ania ti nakitana ken nangngegna ngem awan ti tao a mangawat iti pammaneknekna.
33 Whoever accepts His testimony has certified that God is truthful.
Isuna a nangawat iti pammaneknekna ket pinaneknekanna a pudno ti Dios.
34 For the One whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit.
Ta ibagbaga iti maysa nga imbaon iti Dios dagiti sasao iti Dios. Saana nga it-ited ti Espiritu babaen iti panangrukod.
35 The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in His hands.
Ay-ayaten iti Ama ti Anak ken intedna amin a banbanag iti imana.
36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life. Whoever rejects the Son will not see life. Instead, the wrath of God remains on him.” (aiōnios g166)
Isuna a mamati iti Anak ket maadaan iti biag nga agnanayon ngem isuna a saan nga agtulnog iti Anak ket saanna a makita ti biag ngem agnaed ti pungtot iti Dios kenkuana.” (aiōnios g166)
