John 8
1 But Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
Yesu hi ni gbunlu Zaitun.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them.
Ni mbubele a ka ban ye ni hekeli, indji wawu'u ba kaban ye niwu, aye kuson na si tsoro ba.
3 And the scribes and the Pharisees bring [to him] a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,
Se bi nha ni Farisawa ba nji Iwa wandi ba vu asi tie ngyungyu, u ba yo ni tsutsu mba.
4 they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery.
U ba tre niwu, Malan, Iwa yi ba vu ahe ni mi si ti ngyungyu.
5 Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou?
Ni du Musa, a tre ki ta bi indji bi ki, Iwu u tre nigen ni tuma?”
6 But this they said proving him, that they might have [something] to accuse him [of]. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
U ba tre naki ni ndu sa tre ni ndu ba fe ni ikpe wa ani kpa ndema tie meme (Ko latre), u Yesu sontu grji na si nha ni menme ni vren wo.
7 But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her.
U ba kamba na kri ti tutu bubu miyen, wa lukri ni ndide na hla bawu, “Indji ri ni mi biwa ato ana latre na, ka guci ta.
8 And again stooping down he wrote on the ground.
A la sontu grji na nha ni vren woma.
9 But they, having heard [that], went out one by one beginning from the elder ones until the last; and Jesus was left alone and the woman standing there.
Ba wo naki na lu shan rju ni yi yir ri ni ninkon, na ka Yesu don ni grjima, mba Iwa wa ba na yo ni tsutsu mba.
10 And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee?
Yesu lu kir dinde na miyen, “Iwa, bi wa ba nha wu ba he ni tse? Idiori na nhau na?
11 And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Wa hla ba diori, (Ubangiji), “Yesu tre, imeme mina nhawu na, hi na la latre ganna.
12 Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Yesu tre niba ganri, andi, “I hi me yi mi kpan u gbungbulu, Indji iwa a hume ana tre ni bwuh na ama ani he ni kpan u re (iviri).”
13 The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.
Farisawa ba tre niwu, “U zi tre nitu ikpe wa wuto'a nmitu tume, ana njanji na.
14 Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go.
Yesu sa nibawu na hla, mi ti sheda tu mu me, ahi njanji, mi to iwurji wa mi rji ni wa mi hi'a, biyi kuko bina to wurji wa mi rji'a na, bina to wurji wa mi hi'a na.
15 Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.
Bi tron u son tu, ime na tron to ni diori na.
16 And if also I judge, my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who has sent me.
Ko mina tron ni diori me, itron mu mu'a a u njani nitu ana me kankrji mu na, ki he mbu Iti mu wa a ton me.
17 And in your law too it is written that the testimony of two men is true:
Ee, Ana ki ni du wa ba nha mi tre bitsi, andi sheda indji hari a njanji.
18 I am [one] who bear witness concerning myself, and the Father who has sent me bears witness concerning me.
Ahi me yi mi sheda itu mu, u Itimu iwa a ton me a sheda mu.”
19 They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father.
Ba miyen, “Iti me ahe ni tsen?” Yesu hla ni bawu bina tome na, me bika tre Itimu, bina to me, bina to Iti mu'a me.
20 These words spoke he in the treasury, teaching in the temple; and no one took him, for his hour was not yet come.
A hla tre biyi whirewhir ni bubu wa ba zi kpi wa si tsoro ba tre Rji ni mi hekeli, idiori na vu na nitu iton ma na tsira rina.
21 He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come.
Na hla bawu bru, mi hi biwa bina to me na, bi kwu ni mi latre bi. bubu wa misi hi'a, bina ya hi na.
22 The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he says, Where I go ye cannot come?
Yahudawa ba tre, ani wutuma mu, na ni tre iwurji wa mi hi'a bina ya hi na?”
23 And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Yesu hla bawu biyi bi rji ni meme, u me mi rji ni shu. Bi he ni gbungbulu yi, ime mina rji ni yi ni gbungbulu yi na.
24 I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
Iki sa mi hla niyu bi kwu ni mi latre bi. Bitana kpayemmen ni soron bi andi a hi me na, bi kwu ni mi latre bi.
25 They said therefore to him, Who art thou? [And] Jesus said to them, Altogether that which I also say to you.
U ba tre niwu, awu nha? “Yesu hla ba wu, ikpe mi hla rji ni mumla.
26 I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world.
Mi he ni kpi gbugbuwu wa mi hla ni yiwu, ni gbi ton ni yiwu ni tuma. Naki me, indji wa a ton ndu, andi u njanji, ikpi wa mi wo niwu'a a baki mi si hla ni gbungbulu ba.”
27 They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father.
Bana tona ndi asi tre nitu Iti'a.
28 Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things.
Yesu tre, bita zu Vren Ndji hi ni shu ri bi to ndi a hi me, ndi mi ti kpi ri ni tumu na. Na wa Iti tsoro me, naki mi si ikpi ni yiwu.
29 And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
Wawu wa a ton me ndu'a, ana ka me don kan grji mu na, ahe ni me nitu kpi wawu wa me ti'a ani kpa soron ma si.”
30 As he spoke these things many believed on him.
Wa Yesu si hla bi mba, indji gbugbu'u ba kpa yemme ni wu.
31 Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples;
Yesu hla biyi ni Yahudawa biwa ba wo na kpayenmen niwu, “Bi ta kli ni mi tre mu ni njanji, bi almajere mu bi nanji.
32 and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.
Bi to njanji, u njanji ni kpayi chuwo.”
33 They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never been under bondage to any one; how sayest thou, Ye shall become free?
U ba sa niwu, “Ki mir bi grji ba Ibrahim wa kina ti bre hu diori kan na, iwa tre ni genri, ba kpatachuwo?”
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Every one that practises sin is the bondman of sin.
Yesu hla bawu, “Njani, njanji, mi hla ni yiwu, indji wa ani latre, ahi gran latre.
Igran, na son ni ko se ka se na, ata son se ka se. (aiōn g165)
36 If therefore the Son shall set you free, ye shall be really free.
Naki, ivren nita kpa yi chuwo, u bi nawo wawu.
37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you.
Mi to bi, bi igrji Ibrahim, bi son bi wuma, nitu wa lan tre mu na he ni bubu son ni mi bina.
38 I speak what I have seen with my Father, and ye then do what ye have seen with your father.
Mi hla ikpe wa mi to ni Ti mu, biyi bi ti ikpe wa bi wo ni ba ti bi'a.
39 They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham;
U ba sa niwu, “Ibrahim mba a timbu, Yesu hla bawu, “Bina mir Ibrahim bina ti ikpe wa Ibrahim a ti'a.
40 but now ye seek to kill me, a man who has spoken the truth to you, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.
U, zizan bi son wume, indji wa a hla njani ni yiwu wa a wo rji ni Rji. Ibrahim na ti naki na.
41 Ye do the works of your father. They said [therefore] to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God.
Bi ti na Iti mbi, u ba hla niwu, “Bana grji ta ni mi gyugyu na, ki he ni Iti riri, Irji.”
42 Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come [from him]; for neither am I come of myself, but he has sent me.
Yesu hla bawu, “Irji ana Iti bi bi na son me, u mi rji ni Irji i mi he ni yi zizan, ana ni tumu mi ye na, a wawu yi ton me.
43 Why do ye not know my speech? Because ye cannot hear my word.
Ahi genri sa bina ya to wo tre mu na? e bina wo tre mu na.
44 Ye are of the devil, as [your] father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father:
Bi u Ti bi, Ibrji, bi son bi hu iza ma Iti bi, ani wu ndi rji ni mumla mu ana kri ni njanji na he ni wuna, anita ni hla ice, asi hla Iti ma (isoron ma) rji ni mu a indji u ce na Iti u ce ngari.
45 and because I speak the truth, ye do not believe me.
Wa mi si hla njanji ni yiwu u bi na kpa yenme ni kpe wa mi si hla na.
46 Which of you convinces me of sin? If I speak truth, why do ye not believe me?
Ahi nha ni ri mbi a vu me ni latre? Mi ta hla njanji u bi ka na kpayemme na?
47 He that is of God hears the words of God: therefore ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
Indji wa a u Rji ani wo tre Rji, biyi bina wo tre Irji na, nitu wa bina u Rji na.
48 The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a demon?
Yahudawa ba sa niwu, natre, “Kina hla njanji na nitu wa ki hla andi u indji u Samariya ni he ni meme brji?”
49 Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
Yesu sa bawu, “ime mi na he ni Ibrji na, mi to ninkon u Timu, biyi bina to ninkon mu na.”
50 But I do not seek my own glory: there is he that seeks and judges.
Mina wa to tu mu ti kperi u tu mu na, Indji ri he wa ani wa na ni gbi ton.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If any one shall keep my word, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
Njanji, njanji, mi hla ni yiwu, indji wa a hu tre mu, ana to kwu na.” (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews therefore said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham has died, and the prophets, and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste death. (aiōn g165)
U Yahudawa ba tre, zizan yi ki to u he ni brji. Ibrahim ni ana bawa ba kwu, iwu u tre, indji wa a hu tre me ana to kwu na.' (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who has died? and the prophets have died: whom makest thou thyself?
Ee, u na zan Iti mbu Ibrahim ni ninkon na wa kwu, ka u zan? anabawa me ba kwu, u ban tu ndi u nha?”
54 Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who glorifies me, [of] whom ye say, He is our God.
Yesu sa, “Mita ban tumu ti kperi u tu mu, ani u migyen, ahi Iti mu mba ban ti kperi iwa bi tre ahi wawuyi a Irji bi.
55 And ye know him not; but I know him; and if I said, I know him not, I should be like you, a liar. But I know him, and I keep his word.
Bi mebina tou na, ime mi tou, mi ta tre mina tou na, ka mi kati iriri ni yi me, indji u ce, se me, mi to ni ni hu tre ma.
56 Your father Abraham exulted in that he should see my day, and he saw and rejoiced.
Iti bi Ibrahim a gir ni to ivi mu, a tou na gir.”
57 The Jews therefore said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Yahudawa ba hla niwu, “Una ti hamsi rina, una to Ibrahim?”
58 Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Yesu hla bawu, “Njanji, njanji, mi si hla ni yiwu, mi heri, ban grji Ibrahim.
59 They took up therefore stones that they might cast [them] at him; but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple, [going through the midst of them, and thus passed on.]
U ba vu tita ndi ba tau, u Yesu ri tuma, na rju ni mi hekeli'a.
