John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the Word.
Degabodafa, osobo bagade da hame hahamoi galu, amo esoha Gode Sia: dafa da esalu. E (Sia: dafa), amola Gode, da gilisili afadafa fawane esalu. Sia: dafa da Gode defele.
2 He was with God in the beginning.
Degabodafa Sia: dafa amola Gode, Ela da gilisili esalu.
3 All things were made through Him, and nothing that was made was made without Him.
Sia: dafa da liligi huluanedafa hahamoi dagoi. E da hame hamoi ganiaba, liligi huluanedafa da hame ba: la: loba.
4 Life was in Him, and Life was the light of men.
Sia: dafa da esalusu ea bai galu. Amo esalusu da osobo bagade dunu fifi asi gala ilima hadigi olelei.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
Amo hadigi da gasi ganodini diga: i diala. Amo hadigi da gasiga dedebomu hamedesa.
6 There was a man sent by God, whose name was John.
Gode da Ea sia: adole iasu dunu ea dio amo Yone, amo asunasi.
7 He arrived as a witness to offer testimony about the Light, so that all would believe through him.
Dunu huluane ilia Gode Ea adosu nababeba: le, dafawaneyale dawa: ma: ne, Yone da hadigi ilima olelema: ne misi.
8 He was not the Light, but he was to offer testimony about the Light.
Yone da Hadigidafa hame galu. E da amo Hadigidafa olelela misi.
9 The true Light, which illuminates every man, was coming into this world.
Amo hadigi da Hadigidafa. Hadigidafa da dunu huluane amo da osobo bagadega maha, ilima hadigi iaha.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world did not recognize him.
Sia: dafa da osobo bagade ganodini esalu. Gode da Sia: dafa amoga osobo bagade hahamoi. Be osobo bagade dunu da Sia: dafa hame dawa: i galu.
11 He went to his own, and his own did not accept him.
E da Ea fidafa dunu ilima misi, be Ea fidafa da Ea hou lalegagumu higasu.
12 Yet whoever did accept him, those who believed in his name, he gave them the power to become the sons of God.
Be mogili ilia da Ea hou hanaiba: le, Ea hou lalegagui. Amalalu, ilia da Gode Ea mano hamoma: ne, E da ilima ilegei dagoi.
13 These are born, not of blood, nor of the will of flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Osobo bagade hou hamobeba: le hame, ilia bu lalelegele Gode Ea mano hamoi. Osobo bagade dunu ea hamoiba: le, ilia hame lalelegei, be Gode Hi ilegeiba: le ilia da bu lalelegele, Gode Ea mano hamoi dagoi.
14 And the Word became flesh, and he lived among us, and we saw his glory, glory like that of an only-begotten Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Sia: dafa da osobo bagade dunu ea hu lale, ninia osobo bagade fi amo ganodini esalu. Ea hou da hahawane dogolegele iasu amola dafawanedafa hou ba: su. Ea hadigi, amo Gode Egefedafa Ea hadigi defele, ninia ba: i dagoi.
15 John offers testimony about him, and he cries out, saying: “This is the one about whom I said: ‘He who is to come after me, has been placed ahead of me, because he existed before me.’”
Yone da Ea hou olelei. E da ha: giwane wele sia: i, “E da na misi amoga fa: no misi, be Ea hou da na hou baligisa! Na hame lalelegei esoga, E da esalu! Amo dunu Ea hou olelemusa: na sia: i!”
16 And from his fullness, we all have received, even grace for grace.
Ea hahawane dogolegele iasu hou da nabai bagadewane dialebeba: le, E ninima hahawane bagade iasu. Musa: ninia hahawane ba: i, be wali bu baligiliwane hahawane ba: sa.
17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Gode da Mousesema olelebeba: le, Ea Sema ninima iasu. Be Yesu Gelesu da hahawane dogolegele iasu, amola moloidafa hou, ninima olelei dagoi.
18 No one ever saw God; the only-begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he himself has described him.
Osobo bagade dunu huluanedafa, da Gode hamedafa ba: su. Be Hina Gode Yesu, Hisu da Godedafa defele. Amola E da Gode dafulili lelebeba: le, Hi fawane da Gode Ea hou olelei dagoi.
19 And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to him, so that they might ask him, “Who are you?”
Yu fi ouligisu dunu Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega esalu, ilia da gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai dunu, amo Yone ea hou abodemusa: asunasi. Ilia da Yonema amane adole ba: i, “Di da nowala: ?”
20 And he confessed it and did not deny it; and what he confessed was: “I am not the Christ.”
Yone da bu adole imunu hame hihi galu. E da moloiwane olelei, “Na da Mesaia hame!”
21 And they questioned him: “Then what are you? Are you Elijah?” And he said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”
Ilia bu adole ba: i, “Amaiba: le, di da nowala: ? Di da Elaidiala: ?” Yone bu adole i, “Hame mabu! “Ilia eno adole ba: i, “Di da Balofede dunudafala: ?” “Hame mabu!” e sia: i.
22 Therefore, they said to him: “Who are you, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?”
Ilia amane sia: i, “Amaiba: le, di da nowala: , amo ninima adoma. Ninia asunasi dunuma adole iasu gaguli masunu galebe. Dia hou da adi houla: ?”
23 He said, “I am a voice crying out in the desert, ‘Make straight the way of the Lord,’ just as the prophet Isaiah said.”
Be Yone bu adole ianoba, e da Aisaia ea sia: dedei olelei, “Na da hafoga: i soge, dunu hame esalebe soge amo ganodini ahoana, amane wele sia: nana, `Hina Gode da noga: iwane masa: ne, Ea logo moloiwane fodoma!’”
24 And some of those who had been sent were from among the Pharisees.
Abodemusa: misi dunu (Fa: lisi fi dunu da ili asunasi),
25 And they questioned him and said to him, “Then why do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, and not Elijah, and not the Prophet?”
ilia da Yonema amane adole ba: i, “Di da Mesaia o Elaidia o Balofede dunu amo hame esalea, di da abuliba: le dunu hanoga fane salala: ?”
26 John answered them by saying: “I baptize with water. But in your midst stands one, whom you do not know.
Yone da bu adole i, “Na da hanoga ba: bodaise hou hamosa. Be dilia gilisisu amo ganodini dunu dilia hame dawa: dunu da lela.
27 The same is he who is to come after me, who has been placed ahead of me, the laces of whose shoes I am not worthy to loosen.”
E da na misi amoga fa: no maha. Be na da Ea emo salasu efe fadegamu amo defele hame ba: sa.
28 These things happened in Bethania, across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Yone da Bedani soge, (Yodane Hano gusu bega: ) amoga hanoga fane salasu hou hamonanoba, amo hou huluane da ba: su.
29 On the next day, John saw Jesus coming toward him, and so he said: “Behold, the Lamb of God. Behold, he who takes away the sin of the world.
Golale hahabe, Yone da Yesu ema manebe ba: i. E amane sia: i, “Dilia ba: ma! Gode Ea Sibi Mano manebe goea. E da osobo bagade wadela: i hou huluane fadegale fasisa.
30 This is the one about whom I said, ‘After me arrives a man, who has been placed ahead of me, because he existed before me.’
Na musa: sia: i, `E da na misi amoga fa: no misi, be Ea hou da na hou baligisa. Na hame lalelegei esoga, E da esalu.’ Na da amo dunu Ea hou olelemusa: , amane sia: i.
31 And I did not know him. Yet it is for this reason that I come baptizing with water: so that he may be made manifest in Israel.”
Na da amo dunu hame dawa: i galu. Be na da amo misunu dunu Ea hou Isala: ili dunuma olelemusa: , hanoga fane salasu hamomusa: misi.”
32 And John offered testimony, saying: “For I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove; and he remained upon him.
Amalalu, Yone da ilima amane sia: i, “Na da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala, dafe sio agoane muagado misini, Ea da: i hodo amoga aligila sa: i, ba: i dagoi.
33 And I did not know him. But he who sent me to baptize with water said to me: ‘He over whom you will see the Spirit descending and remaining upon him, this is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
Na da amo da Gode Ea ilegei dunu hame dawa: i galu. Be musa: Gode da na hanoga fane salasu hawa: hamoma: ne, asula ahoanoba, E da nama amane olelei, `Di da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa dunu afadafa amoga aligila dalebe ba: mu. Amo Dunu da Na A: silibu Hadigidafa amoga ba: bodaise hamosa.’
34 And I saw, and I gave testimony: that this one is the Son of God.”
Na da amo hou ba: i dagoi. Amola amo dunu da Gode Egefedafa na da dilima sia: sa!”
35 The next day again, John was standing with two of his disciples.
Eso afae aligili, Yone amola ea ado ba: su dunu aduna da gilisili lelu.
36 And catching sight of Jesus walking, he said, “Behold, the Lamb of God.”
Lelebeba: le, Yesu da baligili ahoanebe ba: i. Yone e amane sia: i, “Gode Ea Sibi Mano ahoanebe goea.”
37 And two disciples were listening to him speaking. And they followed Jesus.
Amo sia: nababeba: le, ea ado ba: su dunu aduna da Yesuma fa: no bobogei.
38 Then Jesus, turning around and seeing them following him, said to them, “What are you seeking?” And they said to him, “Rabbi (which means in translation, Teacher), where do you live?”
Yesu da delegili, ela da ema fa: no bobogelalebe ba: loba, elama amane adole ba: i, “Ali da adi hogosala: ?” Ela bu adole ba: i, “La: bai (olelesu)! Dia golasu da habila: ?”
39 He said to them, “Come and see.” They went and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. Now it was about the tenth hour.
E bu adole i, “Ba: la misa!” (Amoha da eso baloga agoane). Amalalu, ela da Yesu E sigi asili, Ea golasu ba: i. Ilia gilisili amo eso ganodini sia: dalu, gasi gadenenewane yolesi.
40 And Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who had heard about him from John and had followed him.
Dunu afadafa ea dio amo A: dalu, e da Saimone Bida eya esalu. E da Yone ea sia: nabalu, Yesuma fa: no bobogei.
41 First, he found his brother Simon, and he said to him, “We have found the Messiah,” (which is translated as the Christ).
E da ea ola Saimone hogolala ba: beba: le, ema amane sia: i, “Ani da Mesaia (eno sia: Gelesu) ba: i dagoi.”
42 And he led him to Jesus. And Jesus, gazing at him, said: “You are Simon, son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas,” (which is translated as Peter).
Amalalu, e da Saimone Yesuma oule misi. Yesu da Saimone ba: beba: le, amane sia: i, “Dia dio da Saimone! Di da Yone egefe! Wali Na da dima Sifa: se dio asula.” (Sifa: se dio da Bida dio defele. Amo dawa: loma: ne sia: da `igi’.)
43 On the next day, he wanted to go into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
Golale hahabe, Yesu da Ga: lili sogega masunu dawa: i galu. E da Filibe ba: beba: le, amane sia: i, “Na baligiga aligila misa.”
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
(Filibe ea moilai dio amo Bedesa: ida. Amo moilaiga A: dalu amola Bida esalebe ba: i.)
45 Philip found Nathanael, and he said to him, “We have found the one about whom Moses wrote in the Law and the Prophets: Jesus, the son of Joseph, from Nazareth.”
Filibe da hogolala, Nada: na: iele ba: i. E da ema amane sia: i, “Ninia da Dunu amo Ea hou Mousese da Sema buga ganodini dedei, amola balofede dunu, Ea hou dedei, amo dunu ninia ba: i dagoi. E da Yesu, Yousefe egefe. Ea moilai da Na: salede.”
46 And Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good be from Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
Nada: na: iele da amane sia: i, “Liligi ida: iwane gala da Na: salede moilaiga mahabela: ? Hame mabu!” Be Filibe da bu adole i, “Ba: la misa!”
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, and he said about him, “Behold, an Israelite in whom truly there is no deceit.”
Yesu da Nada: na: iele Ema manebe ba: beba: le, ea hou olelemusa: amane sia: i, “Isala: ili dunudafa da manebe goea. Amo dunu da ogogosu hame dawa:”
48 Nathanael said to him, “From where do you know me?” Jesus responded and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Nada: na: iele da Ema amane adole ba: i, “Na hou Dia habodane dawa: bela: ?” Yesu E bu adole i, “Filibe da dima hame misa: ne weloba, Na da di figi ifa ea ougiha esalebe ba: i.”
49 Nathanael answered him and said: “Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel.”
Nada: na: iele fofogadigili sia: i, “Olelesu! Di da Gode Egefedafa. Di da Isala: ili fi ilima Hina Bagadedafa esala.”
50 Jesus responded and said to him: “Because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree, you believe. Greater things than these, you will see.”
Yesu E amane sia: i, “Di da figi ifa ea ougiha esalebe Na ba: i, amo fawane Na sia: beba: le di da Na hou dafawaneyale dawa: bela: ? Amo hou bagadewane baligisu hou di da ba: mu.”
51 And he said to him, “Amen, amen, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the Angels of God ascending and descending over the Son of man.”
E da ilima amane sia: i, “Na da dafawane dilima sia: sa! Dilia da Hebene logo doasibi ba: mu, amola Gode Ea a: igele dunu Gode Egefe amo da: iya, ilia gudu dalebe gado heda: lebe ba: mu.”
