< John 7 >

1 After these things Jesus continued to move about in Galilee, since He did not wish to move about in Judea because the Jews were wanting to kill Him.
Hangi ze yakilaa a makani aya uYesu ai utungile muhinzo iti mu Galilaya, ku nsoko shanga ai uloilwe kulongola ku Uyahudi ku nsoko i Ayahudi i atulaa akuzipya masigo a kumubulaga.
2 Now the Jews' Feast of Tabernacles was near.
Itungili i siku kuu a Ayahudi na itala, ai atulaa pakupi.
3 So His brothers said to Him: “Leave here and go up into Judea so your disciples also may see the works that you are doing,
Uugwa i aluna akwe nai amutambuie, “Hega i kianza iki ulongole ku Uyahudi, iti kina amanyisigwa ni ako uu uuu ihenge intendo nukituma.
4 because no one does anything in secret while he actually wants to be in evidence. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world!”
Kutili nuitumaa lihi ku kinkunku anga itule ung'wenso mukola uloilwe ku kumuka ng'walyi. Anga itule ukituma imakani aya, igeeleke mukola ku anya unkumbigulu.”
5 For not even His brothers were believing into Him.
Ga ni aluna akwe shanga ai amuhuiie.
6 So Jesus says to them: “My time is not here yet, but your time is always available.
Uugwa uYesu ai uatambuiie, “Itungo ni lane likili kupikiila, kuiti itungo nilanyu nkua yihi likoli likondile.
7 The world cannot hate you, but does hate me, because I testify about it that its works are malignant.
Unkumbigulu shanga uhumile kumubipilwa u nyenye, ila umbipiwe unene ku nsoko ku ukuiila kina intendo ni akwe ingi ubii.
8 You guys go up to this feast; I am not going up yet to this feast, because my time has not yet fully come.”
Nankili kulongola ku siku kuu; u nene shanga ninzu ku siku kuu iyi ku nsoko itungo ni lane likili likondaniile.”
9 So upon saying these things to them He stayed on in Galilee.
Ze yakilaa kulingitya imakani nanso kitalao, ai usigile ku Galilaya.
10 Now when His brothers had gone up to the feast, then He too went up, not openly but in secret like.
Ga ni iti, aluna akwe nai atulaa alongolaa ku siku kuu, uugwa nu ng'wenso akalongola, shanga ku kihenga ila ku kinkunku.
11 So the Jews were looking for Him at the feast and saying, “Where is he?”
Ayahudi ai atulaa aku muduma mu siku kuu nu kuligitya, “Ukoli pii?”
12 And there was a lot of murmuring about Him among the crowds. Some were saying, “He is good”; others were saying, “On the contrary, he's deceiving the people.”
Ai ukoli nu witambulyi widu mu kati a anyianza migulya akwe. I auya ai aligitilye, “Ingi muntu mukende,” I auya ai aligitilye, 'Ishi, wialimilya i anyianza,”
13 However, no one was talking openly about Him for fear of the Jews.
Ga ni iti kutili nai utambue kihenga migulya akwe aze uogopile i Ayahudi.
14 Now when the feast was already half over Jesus went up into the temple and started to teach.
Itungo i siku kuu nai apikiila pakati, Uyesu ai unankie kulongola mi Itekeelo nu kandya kumanyisa.
15 And the Jews were marveling saying, “How is this man learned, not having been educated?”
iAyahudi ai atulaa akukuilwa nu kuligitya, “ku kinya uli u muntu uyu ulingile i makani idu? Shanga wimanyisilye nangaluu,”
16 So Jesus answered them and said: “What I teach is not mine, but His who sent me.
uYesu aka asukiilya nu kuatambuila, '“Umanyisa nuane shanga wane, ila ingi wakwe ng'wenso nai undagiiye.
17 If anyone wants to do His will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.
Anga itule wihi ukulowa kituma u ulowa nuakwe u ng'wenso, ukulinga kutula umanyisigwa uwu, anga ize apumiie kung'wa Itunda, ang'wi anga itule kutambula kupuma kitalane mukola.
18 Someone who speaks on his own is seeking his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
Kila nuitambulaa napumiie kitalakwe mukola widumaa ikulyo ni lakwe, ila kila nuidumaa ikulyo ni lakwe nuanso nai umulagiiye, muntu nuanso ingi munya tai, nu mukati akwe kutili kuhita kituma itai ane.
19 “Did not Moses give you the Law? And yet not one of you keeps the Law! Why do you want to kill me?”
uMusa shanga ai uminkiiye unyenye ilagiilyo? Kuiti kutili ga nung'wi mi italanyu nuitumaa ilagiilyo. Ku niki muloilwe kumbulagaa?
20 The crowd answered and said, “You must have a demon! Who wants to kill you?”
i Anyianza akasukiilya, “Ukete hing'wi. Nyenyu uloilwe ku ubulagaa?”
21 Jesus answered and said to them: “I did one work, and you all marvel.
uYesu akasukiilya nu kuaila, “Nitumile mulimo ung'wi, nu nyenye mihi makuilwa ku nsoko akwe.
22 Consider this: Moses gave you circumcision (not that it comes from Moses, but from the patriarchs), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
uMusa ai uminkiiye iganda (shanga kina lipumiie kung'wa Musa, ila nilanso lipumiie kua tata), nu mu luhiku nula kusupya mi mutwalaa kiganda muntu.
23 If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the Law of Moses won't be broken, are you angry at me because I made a whole man well on the Sabbath?
Anga itule uku singiilya iganda mu Luhiku nula kusupya iti kina ilagiilyo ni lang'wa Musa lileke kubunangwa, ku niki mukuntakiila unene ku nsoko numitumile u muntu kutula mupanga lukulu mu Luhiku nula kusupya?
24 Stop judging on the basis of appearances, but judge the righteous judgment.”
Leki kulamuli kuniganiila nu wigeeleki, ila lamuli ku tai ane.
25 Now some of the Jerusalemites were saying: “Isn't this the man they are wanting to kill?
Ang'wi ao kupuma ku Yerusalemu akaligitya, “Shanga yuyu niakuduma kumubulaga?
26 Yet look! He is speaking openly and they are saying nothing to Him. Could it be true that the rulers know that this is really the Christ?
Hangi goza, ukutambula i kihenga, hangi shanga akuligitya kihi migulya akwe. Shanga ihumile itule kina i atongeeli alingile itai kina u muntu uyu ingi Kristo, ihumilene itule?
27 On the other hand, we know where this man is from; but whenever the Christ comes nobody knows where He is from.”
Kulingile uyu muntu upembeeye pii. uKristo nuikiza, ga ni iti, kutili nuikalinga pii nuikapuma.”
28 So Jesus called out in the temple, teaching and saying: “You do know me, and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own, but the One who sent me is true, whom you do not know.
uYesu ai watulaa ukitunta ululi nulakwe mi Itekeelo, aze manyisa nu kuligitya, “Unyenye mihi muningile unene hangi mulingile ku mpembeeye. Shanga ai nzile ku umi nuane, ila ng'wenso nai undagiiye ingi wa tai, hangi shanga mu mulingile u ng'wenso.
29 I do know Him because I am from Him, and He sent me.”
Nu mulingile u ng'wenso ku nsoko mpembeeye kitalakwe hangi ai undagiiye.”
30 So they tried to arrest Him, yet no one laid a hand on Him because His hour had not yet come.
Ai atulaa akugema kumuamba, kuiti kutili ga nung'wi nai unyansue u mukono nu akwe migulya akwe ku nsoko i saa akwe ai ikili kupika.
31 Now many of the crowd were believing into Him, and they were saying, “Whenever the Christ comes He won't perform more signs than these which this man has done, will He?”
Ga ni iti, idu mu anyianza ai amuhuiie. Akaligitya, “uKristo nuikiza, ukituma ilingasiilyo idu kukila nuitumile u muntu uyu?”
32 The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, so the Pharisees and the chief priests sent operatives to arrest Him.
iAfarisayo ai aigulye i anyianza akipwepweela i makani aya kutula u Yesu, ni akulu a Akuhani ni Afarisayo akalagiilya ia afisa iti kumuamba.
33 Then Jesus said: “For a little while I am still with you, and then I go to the One who sent me.
Uugwa uYesu nai uligitilye, Ikili likoli itungo ikupi nkoli palung'wi nu nyenye, Ni panyambele nikalongola kung'waakwe ng'wenso nai undagiiye.
34 You will look for me and not find me; also, where I am you cannot come.”
Mukunduma ni iti shanga mukunihenga, uko ninongoe, shanga muhumile kuza.”
35 So the Jews said among themselves: “Where does this fellow intend to go that we won't find him? He doesn't intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does he?
Ku lulo iAyahudi akitambulya enso ku enso, “uMuntu uyu ukulongola pii kina kuleke kuhuma kumihenga? Ukulongola ku nia sapatiee mu Ayunani nu kuamanyisa i Ayunani?
36 What word is this that he spoke, ‘You will look for me and not find me’; also, ‘where I am you cannot come’?”
Ingi ikani kii ili nuli ligitilye. 'Mukunduma shanga mukunihenga; uko ninongoe shanga muhumile kupembya'?”
37 Now on the last and most important day of the Feast, Jesus stood up and called out saying: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.
Itungili mu luhiku nula mpelo, luhiku nu lukulu nula siku kuu, uYesu ai wimikile nu kitunta ku luli, azeligitya, “Aga itule wihi ukete nyota, nu aze kitalane wang'we.
38 The one believing into me, just as the Scripture has said, out from his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.”
Nuanso nu ni huiie unene anga u ukilisigwa nu uligitilye, kupuma mukati akwe ikuhuma imyongo a mazi a upanga.”
39 (Now He said this about the Spirit, whom those believing into Him were going to receive, in that the Holy Spirit had not yet been given because Jesus had not yet been glorified.)
Kuiti ai umaligitilye aya kutula Ng'wau Ng'welu, naiiza i enso ni amu huiie akumusingiilya; Ng'wau Ng'welu ai watulaa wakili kupumigwa ku nsoko uYesu ai watulaa wakili ku kuligwa.
40 So upon hearing this word many from the crowd began to say, “This One really is ‘the Prophet’!”
Ang'wi a anyianza, nai akija imakani aya, ai aligitilye, “Tai uyu ingi munyakidagu.”
41 Others were saying, “This One is the Christ!” Others were saying: “Surely the Christ isn't coming out of Galilee, is He?
i Auya ai aligitilye, “Uyu ingi Kristo,” Kuiti i auya ai aliditilye, “ntuni, uKristo uhumile kupuma ku Galilaya?
42 Doesn't the Scripture say that the Christ comes out of the seed of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?”
U ukilisigwa shanga uligitilye kina uKristo ukupumiila mu ndugu ang'wa Daudi nu kupuma ku Bethlehemu, kijiji naiza uDaudi ai ukoli?
43 So there developed a division in the crowd because of Him.
Iti gwa, pang'wanso ukamyansuka utemanuki mu kati a anyianza ku nsoko akwe.
44 Further, some of them were wanting to arrest Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.
i Auya mukati ao ai azee muamba, kuiti kutili nai ugooe u mukono migulya akwe.
45 Then the operatives came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why haven't you brought him?”
Iti gwa awo i a ofisa akasuka ku akulu nia Akuhani ni Afarisayo, ni enso aka atambuila, “ku niki shanga mamuleta?”
46 The operatives answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
iAofisa akasukiilya, “Kutili u muntu nai wakaiye kuligitya anga uyu ze ikili.”
47 So the Pharisees answered them: “You haven't been fooled too, have you?
Papo i Afarisayo nai aka asukiilya, “Nu nyenye ga malimiligwa?
48 None of the rulers or the Pharisees have believed into him, have they?
Ukoli wihi mu kati a atemi numuhuiie, ang'wi wihi mu Afarisayo?
49 But this crowd that doesn't know the law is accursed!”
Ila awa i anyianza ni shanga alingile ilagiilyo - azumilwe.”
50 Nicodemus (the one who came to Him at night, being one of them) says to them,
uNikodemu aka atambuila (nuanso ai umuhangile uYesu i kali, aze ung'wi nua Afarisayo).
51 “Our law doesn't judge a man before it hears him and knows what he is doing, does it?”
“Itii ilagiilyo litu likumulamula umuntu kwaala utegeeigwe hanza nu kulinga nukituma?”
52 They answered and said to him: “You aren't from Galilee too, are you? Search and see that no prophet has ever arisen out of Galilee.”
Ai asukiiye nu kumutambuila, “Nu ewe ga upembeeye ku Galilaya? Duma hangi wihenge kutili u munyakidagu nupembeeye ku Galilaya.”
53 So each one went to his own house.
Hangi kila u muntu ai ulongoe kitalakwe.
