John 7
1 After this, Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He did not want to travel in Judea, because the Jews there were trying to kill Him.
Ni baada jha mambo agha Yesu asafiri na ku Galialaya kwa ndabha alondelepi kulota Bhuyahudi kwa ndabha bhayahudi bhabhombeghe mipango ghya kun'koma.
2 However, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.
Henu sikukuu jha Bhayahudi, sikukuu jha fibanda, jhajhele karibu.
3 So Jesus’ brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go to Judea, so that Your disciples there may see the works You are doing.
Ndipo bhalongomunu bhan'jobhili, “Bhokayi mahali apa ulotayi ku Bhuyahudi, ili kwamba bhanafunzi bha jhobhi khelakhela bhaghabhonayi matendo ghaghwifuanya.
4 For no one who wants to be known publicly acts in secret. Since You are doing these things, show Yourself to the world.”
Ajhelepi jha ibhomba lyolyoha kwa siri iwapo muene ilonda kumanyikana bhwasi. Iwapo ghwibhomba mambo agha, ghwilasiayi ghwimuene kwa bhalimwengu.”
5 For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.
Hata bhalongomunu pia bhakyeli lepi.
6 Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come.
Ndipo Yesu akabhajobhela, “Bhwakati ghwa nene bhwakona, lakini wakati ghwa muenga khila mara bhujhe tayari.
7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me, because I testify that its works are evil.
Bhulimwengu bhwibhuesya lepi kubhadadila muenga, bali bhukanidadila nene kwa ndabha nikabhushuhudila kwa matendo ghake maovu.
8 Go up to the feast on your own. I am not going up to this feast, because My time has not yet come.”
Mukwelayi kulota ku sikukuu; nene nilotalepi ku sikukuu ejhe kwa ndabha muda gha nene bhukamilikilepi bado.”
9 Having said this, Jesus remained in Galilee.
Baada jha kujobha mambo aghu kwa bhene, abakili Galilaya.
10 But after His brothers had gone up to the feast, He also went—not publicly, but in secret.
Hata ivyo bhalongo munu bhalotili ku sikukuu, ndipo ni muene akalota, sio kwa wazi bali kwa siri.
11 So the Jews were looking for Him at the feast and asking, “Where is He?”
Bhayahudi bhakayabhakandonda ku sikukuu ni kujobha, “Ajhendaku?”
12 Many in the crowds were whispering about Him. Some said, “He is a good man.” But others replied, “No, He deceives the people.”
Kwajhele ni majadiliano mingi miongoni mwa makutano juu jha muene. Bhangi bhajobhili, “Munu n'nofu.” Bhangi bhakajobha, “Lepi, ikabhakofya makutano.”
13 Yet no one would speak publicly about Him for fear of the Jews.
Hata ivyo ajhelepi jha ajobhili bhukweli juu jha muene kwa kubhatila Bhayahudi.
14 About halfway through the feast, Jesus went up to the temple courts and began to teach.
Wakati sikukuu jhifikili pagati, Yesu akwelili kulota ku lihekalu ni kuyanda kumanyisya.
15 The Jews were amazed and asked, “How did this man attain such learning without having studied?”
Bhayahudi bhakaya bhisyangala ni kujobha, “Kibhuli munu ojho amanyili mambo ghamehele? Abhwayilepi kusoma hata.”
16 “My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.
Yesu abhajibhili ni kubhajobhela, “Mafundisu gha nene ghanelepi, bali jha muene jha anilaghisi.
17 If anyone desires to do His will, he will know whether My teaching is from God or whether I speak on My own.
Ikajhelayi jhejhioha jhaibeta kubhomba mapenzi gha muene, ibetakumanya kuhusu mafundisu agha kama ghihomela kwa K'yara, au kama nilongela kuhomela kwa nene ne muene.
18 He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.
Khila ghailongela ghihoma kwa muene ghilonda utukufu bhwa muene jhaanilaghisi, munu ojhu ghwa bhukweli, ni mugati mwa muene kujhelepi kutokubhomba haki.
19 Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”
Musa abhapelili lepi muenga sheria? Lakini ajhelepi hata mmonga kati jha muenga jhaibhomba sheria. Kwa ndabha jhakiki mwilonda kunikoma?
20 “You have a demon,” the crowd replied. “Who is trying to kill You?”
Makutano bhakajibu, “Ujhe ni pepo. Niani ilonda kukoma?”
21 Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.
Yesu akajibu ni kubhajobhela, “Nikhetili mbombo jhimonga, namu mwebhoka musyangesibhu kwa ndabha jha muene.
22 But because Moses gave you circumcision, you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath (not that it is from Moses, but from the patriarchs.)
Musa abapelili tohara (siyo kwamba jhihoma kwa Musa, bali jhela jhihoma kwa mababa), ni mu Sabato mukan'tahili munu.
23 If a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses will not be broken, why are you angry with Me for making the whole man well on the Sabbath?
Ikajhelayi munu ibetakupokela tohara mu ligono lya Sabato ili kwamba sheria jha Musa isivunjibhu, kwandajhakiki mkanidadila nene kwa ndabha nimponyisi munu ligono lya Sabato?
24 Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly.”
Musihukumu kul'engana ni mwonekano, bali muhukumuajhi kwa haki.
25 Then some of the people of Jerusalem began to say, “Isn’t this the man they are trying to kill?
Baadhi jha bhene kuhoma Yerusalemu bhakajobha, “Ojho lepi jha bhikandonda kun'koma?
26 Yet here He is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying anything to Him. Have the rulers truly recognized that this is the Christ?
Na langayi ilongela waziwazi, na bhijobhalepi kyokyoha juu jha muene. Jhibhwesya lepi kujha bhalongosi bhamanyili kueli kujha ojho ndo Kristu, jhibhwesya kujha?
27 But we know where this man is from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where He is from.”
Tumanyili munu ojho ihomela ndaku. Kristu paibeta kuhida, ataivyo. ajhelepi jhaibetakumanya ndaku kwaihomela.”
28 Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “You know Me, and you know where I am from. I have not come of My own accord, but He who sent Me is true. You do not know Him,
Yesu ajhele ikwesya sauti jha muene mu lihekalu ifundisya ni kujobha, “Muenga mwebhoha munimanyili nene na mumanyili kwa nihomela. Nahidilepi kwa nafsi jha nene, bali muene jhaanilaghisi ni ghwa bhukweli, na mumanyilepi muene.
29 but I know Him, because I am from Him and He sent Me.”
Nimanyili muene kwa ndabha nihomili kwa muene na anilaghisi.”
30 So they tried to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.
Bhajaribueghe kun'teemula, lakini ajhelepi hata mmonga jha ajhinuleghe kibhoko kya muene panani pa muene kwa ndandabha jha saa jha muene jhajhele bado jhifikili lepi.
31 Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ comes, will He perform more signs than this man?”
Hata hivyo, bhingi mu makutano bhamwamini. Bhajobhili, “Kristu paibetakuhida, ibetakukheta ishara simehele kuliko sya abhombili munu ojho?”
32 When the Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things about Jesus, they and the chief priests sent officers to arrest Him.
Mafarisayo bhapeliki makutano bhinong'onezana mambo agha kuhusu Yesu, ni bhabhaha bha makuhani ni Mafarisayo bhakatuma maafisa ili kunikamula.
33 So Jesus said, “I am with you only a little while longer, and then I am going to the One who sent Me.
Ndipo Yesu pajobhili, “Bado kujha ni muda kitambo ni jha pamonga namu, ni baadaye nibetakulota kwa muene jhaanilaghisi.
34 You will look for Me, but you will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.”
Mwibeta kunilonda wala mwibeta lepi kunibhona; khola kwanibeta kulota.”
35 At this, the Jews said to one another, “Where does He intend to go that we will not find Him? Will He go where the Jews are dispersed among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
Kwahiyo Bhayahudi bhakajobhesana bhene kwa bhene, “Munu ojho ibetakulota ndaku kwamba tusibhwesi kumbona? Ibetakulota kwa bhabhatawanyiki kati jha Bhayunani ni kubhafundisya Bhayunani?
36 What does He mean by saying, ‘You will look for Me, but you will not find Me,’ and, ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”
Litobhi leleku e'le lyaali jobhili, 'Mwibetakunilonda ni wala mwibetalepi kunibhona; khola kwa nilota mwibetalepi bhuesya kuhida'?”
37 On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.
Henu ligono lya mwishu, ligono libhaha lya sikukuu, Yesu akajhema akakuesya sauti, akajobha, “Ikajhiajhi jhejhioha ajhe ni kiu, na ahidayi kwa nene anyuajhi.
38 Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Streams of living water will flow from within him.’”
Muene jha akaniamini nene, kama maandiku kyaghajobhili, kuhoma mugati mwa muene jhibetakutiririka masi gha uzima.”
39 He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
Lakini aghajibhili agha kuhusu Roho, ambajhe bhene bhakamwamini bhibetakumpokela; Roho ajhe akona kupisibhwa kwa ndabha Yesu ajhe akona kutukusibhwa.
40 On hearing these words, some of the people said, “This is truly the Prophet.”
Baadhi jha makutano, bho bhap'eliki malobhi agha bhajobhili, “Kweli ojho ndo nabii.”
41 Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?
Bhamana bhajobhili, “Ojho ndo Kristu.” Lakini bhamana bhajobhili, “kiki, Kristu abhwesiajhi kuhoma Galilaya?
42 Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”
Maandiku ghajobhi lepi kujha Kristu ibeta kuhomela mu lukhoto kwa Daudi ni kuhoma Bethlehemu, kijiji ambakyo Daudi ajhele?
43 So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.
Hivyo pala ghwajhinuiki mgawanijo pagati pa makutano kwandabha jha muene.
44 Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.
Bhamana kati jha bhene ngabhan'kamuili, lakini ajhelepi jha anyosisi mabhoko gha muene panani pa muene.
45 Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”
Ndipo bhala maofisa bhakakerebhuka kwa bhabhaha bha makuhani ni Mafarisayo, na bhene bhakajobhela, “Kwandajhakiki mundetili lepi?”
46 “Never has anyone spoken like this man!” the officers answered.
Maofisa bhakajibu, “Ajhelepi munu jha abhwayili kulongela kama ojho kabla.”
47 “Have you also been deceived?” replied the Pharisees.
Ndipo Mafarisayo bhabhajibhili, “Ni muenga kabhele mupotosibhu?
48 “Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in Him?
Kujha ni jhejhioha kati jha bhatawala jhaikan'kiera, au jhejhioha bhwa Mafarisayo?
49 But this crowd that does not know the law, they are under a curse.”
Bali abha makutano bhabhamanyilepi sheria - bhalaanibhu.”
50 Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who himself was one of them, asked,
Nikodemo akabhajobhela (muene jhaandotili Yesu lukhombi, bho ajhe mmonga ghwa Mafarisayo),
51 “Does our law convict a man without first hearing from him to determine what he has done?”
“Je sheria jha tete ikan'hukumu munu isipokujha ap'elekisibhu hoti ni kumanya kyaikheta?”
52 “Aren’t you also from Galilee?” they replied. “Look into it, and you will see that no prophet comes out of Galilee.”
Bhajibili ni kun'jobhela, “Ni bhebhe kabhele ghwihomela Galilaya? Londayi na ulotayi kwamba ajhelepi nabii jha ahomili Galilaya.”
53 Then each went to his own home.
Kisha khila munu alotili kunyumba jha muene.
