John 7
1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought 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 Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.
Henu sikukuu jha Bhayahudi, sikukuu jha fibanda, jhajhele karibu.
3 And his brethren said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost.
Ndipo bhalongomunu bhan'jobhili, “Bhokayi mahali apa ulotayi ku Bhuyahudi, ili kwamba bhanafunzi bha jhobhi khelakhela bhaghabhonayi matendo ghaghwifuanya.
4 For there is no man that doth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, manifest thyself to the world.
Ajhelepi jha ibhomba lyolyoha kwa siri iwapo muene ilonda kumanyikana bhwasi. Iwapo ghwibhomba mambo agha, ghwilasiayi ghwimuene kwa bhalimwengu.”
5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
Hata bhalongomunu pia bhakyeli lepi.
6 Then Jesus said to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.
Ndipo Yesu akabhajobhela, “Bhwakati ghwa nene bhwakona, lakini wakati ghwa muenga khila mara bhujhe tayari.
7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth: because I give testimony of it, that the works thereof are evil.
Bhulimwengu bhwibhuesya lepi kubhadadila muenga, bali bhukanidadila nene kwa ndabha nikabhushuhudila kwa matendo ghake maovu.
8 Go you up to this festival day, but I go not up to this festival day: because my time is not accomplished.
Mukwelayi kulota ku sikukuu; nene nilotalepi ku sikukuu ejhe kwa ndabha muda gha nene bhukamilikilepi bado.”
9 When he had said these things, he himself stayed in Galilee.
Baada jha kujobha mambo aghu kwa bhene, abakili Galilaya.
10 But after his brethren were gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret.
Hata ivyo bhalongo munu bhalotili ku sikukuu, ndipo ni muene akalota, sio kwa wazi bali kwa siri.
11 The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day, and said: Where is he?
Bhayahudi bhakayabhakandonda ku sikukuu ni kujobha, “Ajhendaku?”
12 And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth 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 man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.
Hata ivyo ajhelepi jha ajobhili bhukweli juu jha muene kwa kubhatila Bhayahudi.
14 Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
Wakati sikukuu jhifikili pagati, Yesu akwelili kulota ku lihekalu ni kuyanda kumanyisya.
15 And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?
Bhayahudi bhakaya bhisyangala ni kujobha, “Kibhuli munu ojho amanyili mambo ghamehele? Abhwayilepi kusoma hata.”
16 Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
Yesu abhajibhili ni kubhajobhela, “Mafundisu gha nene ghanelepi, bali jha muene jha anilaghisi.
17 If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
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 that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.
Khila ghailongela ghihoma kwa muene ghilonda utukufu bhwa muene jhaanilaghisi, munu ojhu ghwa bhukweli, ni mugati mwa muene kujhelepi kutokubhomba haki.
19 Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?
Musa abhapelili lepi muenga sheria? Lakini ajhelepi hata mmonga kati jha muenga jhaibhomba sheria. Kwa ndabha jhakiki mwilonda kunikoma?
20 Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?
Makutano bhakajibu, “Ujhe ni pepo. Niani ilonda kukoma?”
21 Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:
Yesu akajibu ni kubhajobhela, “Nikhetili mbombo jhimonga, namu mwebhoka musyangesibhu kwa ndabha jha muene.
22 Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers; ) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.
Musa abapelili tohara (siyo kwamba jhihoma kwa Musa, bali jhela jhihoma kwa mababa), ni mu Sabato mukan'tahili munu.
23 If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?
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 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.
Musihukumu kul'engana ni mwonekano, bali muhukumuajhi kwa haki.
25 Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
Baadhi jha bhene kuhoma Yerusalemu bhakajobha, “Ojho lepi jha bhikandonda kun'koma?
26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth, 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 this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
Tumanyili munu ojho ihomela ndaku. Kristu paibeta kuhida, ataivyo. ajhelepi jhaibetakumanya ndaku kwaihomela.”
28 Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.
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 I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.
Nimanyili muene kwa ndabha nihomili kwa muene na anilaghisi.”
30 They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was 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 But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?
Hata hivyo, bhingi mu makutano bhamwamini. Bhajobhili, “Kristu paibetakuhida, ibetakukheta ishara simehele kuliko sya abhombili munu ojho?”
32 The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.
Mafarisayo bhapeliki makutano bhinong'onezana mambo agha kuhusu Yesu, ni bhabhaha bha makuhani ni Mafarisayo bhakatuma maafisa ili kunikamula.
33 Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.
Ndipo Yesu pajobhili, “Bado kujha ni muda kitambo ni jha pamonga namu, ni baadaye nibetakulota kwa muene jhaanilaghisi.
34 You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.
Mwibeta kunilonda wala mwibeta lepi kunibhona; khola kwanibeta kulota.”
35 The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
Kwahiyo Bhayahudi bhakajobhesana bhene kwa bhene, “Munu ojho ibetakulota ndaku kwamba tusibhwesi kumbona? Ibetakulota kwa bhabhatawanyiki kati jha Bhayunani ni kubhafundisya Bhayunani?
36 What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me, and shall 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 And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, 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 He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Muene jha akaniamini nene, kama maandiku kyaghajobhili, kuhoma mugati mwa muene jhibetakutiririka masi gha uzima.”
39 Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive, who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
Lakini aghajibhili agha kuhusu Roho, ambajhe bhene bhakamwamini bhibetakumpokela; Roho ajhe akona kupisibhwa kwa ndabha Yesu ajhe akona kutukusibhwa.
40 Of that multitude therefore, when they had heard these words of his, some said: This is the prophet indeed.
Baadhi jha makutano, bho bhap'eliki malobhi agha bhajobhili, “Kweli ojho ndo nabii.”
41 Others said: This is the Christ. But some said: Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?
Bhamana bhajobhili, “Ojho ndo Kristu.” Lakini bhamana bhajobhili, “kiki, Kristu abhwesiajhi kuhoma Galilaya?
42 Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem the town where David was?
Maandiku ghajobhi lepi kujha Kristu ibeta kuhomela mu lukhoto kwa Daudi ni kuhoma Bethlehemu, kijiji ambakyo Daudi ajhele?
43 So there arose a dissension among the people because of him.
Hivyo pala ghwajhinuiki mgawanijo pagati pa makutano kwandabha jha muene.
44 And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands on him.
Bhamana kati jha bhene ngabhan'kamuili, lakini ajhelepi jha anyosisi mabhoko gha muene panani pa muene.
45 The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them: Why have you not brought him?
Ndipo bhala maofisa bhakakerebhuka kwa bhabhaha bha makuhani ni Mafarisayo, na bhene bhakajobhela, “Kwandajhakiki mundetili lepi?”
46 The ministers answered: Never did man speak like this man.
Maofisa bhakajibu, “Ajhelepi munu jha abhwayili kulongela kama ojho kabla.”
47 The Pharisees therefore answered them: Are you also seduced?
Ndipo Mafarisayo bhabhajibhili, “Ni muenga kabhele mupotosibhu?
48 Hath any one of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?
Kujha ni jhejhioha kati jha bhatawala jhaikan'kiera, au jhejhioha bhwa Mafarisayo?
49 But this multitude, that knoweth not the law, are accursed.
Bali abha makutano bhabhamanyilepi sheria - bhalaanibhu.”
50 Nicodemus said to them, (he that came to him by night, who was one of them: )
Nikodemo akabhajobhela (muene jhaandotili Yesu lukhombi, bho ajhe mmonga ghwa Mafarisayo),
51 Doth our law judge any man, unless it first hear him, and know what he doth?
“Je sheria jha tete ikan'hukumu munu isipokujha ap'elekisibhu hoti ni kumanya kyaikheta?”
52 They answered, and said to him: Art thou also a Galilean? Search the scriptures, and see, that out of Galilee a prophet riseth not.
Bhajibili ni kun'jobhela, “Ni bhebhe kabhele ghwihomela Galilaya? Londayi na ulotayi kwamba ajhelepi nabii jha ahomili Galilaya.”
53 And every man returned to his own house.
Kisha khila munu alotili kunyumba jha muene.
