John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Pada mulanya, sebelum dunia dijadikan, Sabda sudah ada. Sabda ada bersama Allah dan Sabda sama dengan Allah.
2 He Himself existed in the beginning with God.
Sejak semula Ia bersama Allah.
3 All things came to be by Him; that is, apart from Him not even one thing that has come into being came to be.
Segalanya dijadikan melalui Dia, dan dari segala yang ada, tak satu pun dijadikan tanpa Dia.
4 In Him was life, and the Life was the Light of mankind.
Sabda itu sumber hidup, dan hidup memberi terang kepada manusia.
5 Now the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Terang itu bercahaya dalam kegelapan, dan kegelapan tak dapat memadamkannya.
6 There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
Datanglah orang yang diutus Allah, Yohanes namanya.
7 This man came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him.
Ia datang mewartakan tentang terang itu, supaya semua orang percaya.
8 He himself was not the Light but was to testify about the Light—
Ia sendiri bukan terang itu, ia hanya mewartakannya.
9 the true Light which illumines everyone who comes into the world.
Terang sejati yang menerangi semua manusia, datang ke dunia.
10 He was in the world, the world that came into being by Him, yet the world did not know Him.
Sabda ada di dunia, dunia dijadikan melalui Dia, tetapi dunia tidak mengenal-Nya.
11 He came to His own things, yet His own people did not receive Him.
Ia datang ke negeri-Nya sendiri tetapi bangsa-Nya tidak menerima Dia.
12 But, as many as did receive Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe into His name:
Namun ada juga orang yang menerima Dia dan percaya kepada-Nya; mereka diberi-Nya hak menjadi anak Allah,
13 who were begotten, not by blood, nor by the desire of the flesh, nor by the will of a man, but by God.
yang dilahirkan bukan dari manusia, sebab hidup baru itu dari Allah asalnya.
14 So the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we observed His glory, glory of an Only-begotten, from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Sabda sudah menjadi manusia, Ia tinggal di antara kita, dan kita sudah melihat keagungan-Nya. Keagungan itu diterima-Nya sebagai Anak tunggal Bapa. Melalui Dia kita melihat Allah dan kasih-Nya kepada kita.
15 John testified about Him and called out saying: “This is He of whom I said, ‘The One coming after me is now ahead of me, because He existed before I did.’”
Yohanes datang sebagai saksi-Nya, ia mewartakan: "Inilah Dia yang kukatakan: Dia akan datang lebih kemudian dari aku, tetapi lebih besar dari aku, sebab sebelum aku ada, Dia sudah ada."
16 Now we have all received from His fullness, yes, grace upon grace.
Ia penuh kasih; tiada hentinya, Ia memberkati kita.
17 Because the Law was given through Moses; the Grace and the Truth came through Jesus Christ.
Hukum Tuhan kita terima melalui Musa. Tetapi kasih dan kesetiaan Allah dinyatakan melalui Yesus Kristus.
18 No one has ever seen God. The Only-begotten Son, who exists in the bosom of the Father, He has interpreted Him.
Tak ada yang pernah melihat Allah, selain anak tunggal Bapa, yang sama dengan Bapa dan erat sekali kepada-Nya. Dialah yang menyatakan Bapa kepada kita.
19 Now this is John's testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
Para penguasa Yahudi di Yerusalem menyuruh imam-imam dan orang-orang Lewi pergi kepada Yohanes dan menanyakan kepadanya, "Engkau ini siapa?"
20 He confessed, he did not deny but confessed, “I am not the Christ.”
Yohanes mengaku dengan terus terang, "Saya bukan Raja Penyelamat."
21 So they asked him, “What then, are you Elijah?” And he says, “I am not.” “Are you ‘the Prophet’?” “No,” he answered.
"Kalau begitu, engkau siapa?" tanya mereka. "Apakah engkau Elia?" "Bukan," jawab Yohanes. "Apakah engkau Sang Nabi?" tanya mereka lagi. "Bukan," jawabnya.
22 So 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?”
"Kalau begitu, katakanlah kepada kami siapa engkau ini," kata mereka, "supaya kami dapat memberi jawaban kepada orang-orang yang menyuruh kami. Apa katamu tentang dirimu sendiri?"
23 He said, “I am ‘the voice of one calling out: “Make the Lord's road straight in the wilderness,”’ just as the prophet Isaiah said.”
Yohanes menjawab, "Sayalah dia yang dikatakan oleh Nabi Yesaya: 'Orang yang berseru di padang pasir: Ratakanlah jalan untuk Tuhan.'"
24 Now those who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
Orang-orang yang diutus oleh orang Farisi
25 So they asked him saying, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor ‘the Prophet’?”
bertanya, "Kalau engkau bukan Raja Penyelamat, bukan Elia, bukan juga Sang Nabi, mengapa engkau membaptis?"
26 John answered them saying: “I baptize with water, but among you stands One whom you do not know.
Yohanes menjawab, "Saya membaptis dengan air. Tetapi di tengah-tengah kalian ada orang yang tidak kalian kenal.
27 He is the One coming after me who is now ahead of me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose.”
Ia datang lebih kemudian dari saya, tetapi untuk membuka tali sepatu-Nya pun saya tidak layak."
28 These things happened in Bithabara, across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Semuanya itu terjadi di Betania, sebelah timur Sungai Yordan tempat Yohanes membaptis.
29 The next day John sees Jesus coming toward him and says: “Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!
Keesokan harinya, Yohanes melihat Yesus datang kepadanya. Lalu Yohanes berkata, "Lihat, itulah Anak Domba Allah yang menghapus dosa dunia.
30 This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is now ahead of me, because He existed before I did.’
Dialah yang saya katakan akan datang kemudian dari saya, tetapi lebih besar dari saya, sebab sebelum saya lahir, Dia sudah ada.
31 I did not know Him; but so that He should be revealed to Israel, that is why I came baptizing with water.”
Sebelumnya, saya tidak tahu siapa Dia itu. Padahal saya datang membaptis dengan air supaya bangsa Israel mengenal Dia."
32 And John testified saying: “I observed the Spirit coming down like a dove out of heaven, and He rested upon Him.
Yohanes juga memberi kesaksian ini, "Saya melihat Roh Allah turun seperti merpati dari langit lalu tinggal di atas-Nya.
33 Now I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, ‘The One upon whom you see the Spirit coming down and resting—this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
Waktu itu saya belum tahu siapa Dia. Tetapi Allah yang menyuruh saya membaptis dengan air sudah berkata kepada saya, 'Bila engkau melihat Roh Allah turun, lalu tinggal di atas seseorang, Dialah yang akan membaptis dengan Roh Allah.'
34 So I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”
Saya sudah melihat-Nya sendiri," kata Yohanes, "dan saya memberi kesaksian bahwa Dialah Anak Allah."
35 Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples.
Keesokan harinya Yohanes ada di tempat itu lagi dengan dua pengikutnya.
36 And seeing Jesus walking by, he says, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
Ketika ia melihat Yesus lewat, ia berkata, "Lihat! Itulah Anak Domba Allah."
37 The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
Kedua pengikut Yohanes mendengar kata-kata itu, lalu pergi mengikuti Yesus.
38 So turning and observing them following Jesus says to them, “What do you want?” So they said to Him, “Rabbi” (which translated means ‘Teacher’), “where are You staying?”
Yesus menoleh ke belakang, dan melihat mereka sedang mengikuti Dia. Ia bertanya, "Kalian mencari apa?" Jawab mereka, "Rabi, di manakah Rabi tinggal?" (Kata 'Rabi' artinya guru.)
39 He says to them, “Come and see.” So they went and saw where He was staying, and stayed with Him that day—it was about the tenth hour.
"Mari lihat sendiri," kata Yesus. Mereka pergi dengan Dia dan melihat di mana Ia tinggal. Waktu itu pukul empat sore. Hari itu mereka tinggal bersama Dia.
40 One of the two who heard John and followed Him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
Salah satu dari kedua orang yang telah mendengar apa yang dikatakan Yohanes dan kemudian pergi mengikuti Yesus, adalah Andreas, saudara Simon Petrus.
41 He first finds his own brother Simon and says to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated ‘Christ’).
Cepat-cepat Andreas mencari Simon, saudaranya, dan berkata kepadanya, "Kami sudah bertemu dengan Mesias!" (Mesias sama dengan Kristus, yaitu: Raja Penyelamat.)
42 And he led him to Jesus. Looking at him Jesus said, “You are Simon, the son of Jonah; you will be called Cephas” (which is translated ‘Stone’).
Andreas mengantar Simon kepada Yesus. Yesus menatap Simon, lalu berkata, "Engkau Simon, anak Yona. Engkau akan disebut Kefas." (Kefas sama dengan Petrus, artinya: gunung batu.)
43 The next day He decided to go to Galilee, so He finds Philip and says to him, “Follow me.”
Keesokan harinya Yesus memutuskan untuk pergi ke Galilea. Ia berjumpa dengan Filipus, dan berkata kepadanya, "Mari ikut Aku!"
44 (Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the hometown of Andrew and Peter.)
Filipus berasal dari Betsaida, yaitu tempat tinggal Andreas dan Petrus.
45 Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, “We have found the One of whom Moses in the Law—and also the prophets—wrote: Jesus the son of Joseph, from Natsareth.”
Filipus bertemu dengan Natanael dan berkata kepadanya, "Kami sudah menemukan orang yang disebut oleh Musa dalam Buku Hukum Allah, dan yang diwartakan oleh nabi-nabi. Dia itu Yesus dari Nazaret, anak Yusuf."
46 So Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Natsareth?” Philip says to him, “Come and see!”
Tetapi Natanael menjawab, "Mungkinkah sesuatu yang baik datang dari Nazaret?" "Mari lihat sendiri," jawab Filipus.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and says about him, “There, a genuine Israelite in whom there is no deceit!”
Yesus melihat Natanael datang, lalu berkata tentang dia, "Lihat, itu orang Israel sejati. Tak ada kepalsuan padanya."
48 Nathanael says to Him, “From where do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, while you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
"Bagaimana Bapak mengenal saya?" tanya Natanael kepada Yesus. Yesus menjawab, "Sebelum Filipus memanggilmu, Aku sudah melihat engkau di bawah pohon ara itu."
49 In answer Nathanael says to Him: “Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
"Bapak Guru," kata Natanael, "Bapak adalah Anak Allah! Bapaklah Raja bangsa Israel!"
50 Jesus answered and said to him: “You believe because I said that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater than these.”
Yesus berkata, "Engkau percaya, hanya karena Aku mengatakan bahwa Aku sudah melihat engkau di bawah pohon ara itu? Hal-hal yang jauh lebih besar dari itu akan kaulihat!"
51 And He says to him, “I tell you (pl) most assuredly, later on you will see the heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of the Man.”
Kata Yesus pula, "Sungguh, percayalah, engkau akan melihat langit terbuka, dan malaikat-malaikat Allah naik turun pada Anak Manusia."
