John 8
1 And Iesus went vnto the mount of Oliues,
Jesu wakaya kuchilundu cha Oliva.
2 And early in the morning came againe into the Temple, and all the people came vnto him, and he sate downe, and taught them.
Chifumofumo wakaya ku tempele lubo, eelyo bantu boonse bakasika; wakakkala aansi akubayiisya.
3 Then the Scribes, and the Pharises brought vnto him a woman, taken in adulterie, and set her in the middes,
Balembi bamulawu abaFalisi bakeeta mukayintu wakajatwa nkalookuchita bumambe. Bakamubika aakati.
4 And said vnto him, Master, we foud this woman committing adulterie, euen in the very acte.
Mpawo bakati kulinguwe, “Muyiisi, ooyu mwanakaziwajatwa kalikuchita bumambe.
5 Now Moses in our Law commanded, that such should be stoned: what sayest thou therefore?
Lino mumulawu, Mozesi wakatulayilila kuti bantu baliboobu tubatulule mabwe; iwe utyeni aatala anguwe?”
6 And this they saide to tempt him, that they might haue, whereof to accuse him. But Iesus stouped downe, and with his finger wrote on the groud.
Bakaamba eezi kuchitila kuti bamupe mulandu anzizyo, pesi Jesu wakakotama walemba aansi amunwe wakwe.
7 And while they continued asking him, hee lift himselfe vp, and sayde vnto them, Let him that is among you without sinne, cast the first stone at her.
Nibakiinkilila aanembo akumubuzya mibuzyo, wakanyampuka akubaambila kuti, “Ooyo utakwe chibi aakati kenu, ngabe mutanzi kutulula mwanakazi ooyu ibbwe.”
8 And againe hee stouped downe, and wrote on the ground.
Wakakotama aansi lubo, akulemba aanyika amunwe wakwe.
9 And when they heard it, being accused by their owne conscience, they went out one by one, beginning at ye eldest euen to the last: so Iesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the mids.
Nibakamvwa eezi bakeenda umwi awumwi, kutalika aamupati. Kumamanino Jesu wakasyaala aalike, nkali aamwanakazi ngubakabikide aakati.
10 When Iesus had lift vp himselfe againe, and sawe no man, but the woman, hee saide vnto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
Jesu wakanyampuka akumwaambila kuti, “Yoo mwanakazi, mbali basikukupa mulandu? Takwe muntu wajana mulandu na mulinduwe?”
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Iesus said, Neither do I condemne thee: go and sinne no more.
Wakati, “Takwe, nikuba womwe Mwaami.” Jesu wakati, “Ambebo nsikupi mulandu. Koya alimwi utakabisyi limbi.”]
12 Then spake Iesus againe vnto them, saying, I am that light of the worlde: hee that followeth mee, shall not walke in darkenes, but shall haue that light of life.
Alimwi Jesu wakaambuula aabo nkati, “Ndili mumuni wanyika; ooyo unditobela takoyoyenda mumudima pesi uyooba aamumuni wabuumi.”
13 The Pharises therefore saide vnto him, Thou bearest recorde of thy selfe: thy recorde is not true.
Ba Falisi bakati kulinguwe, “Ulipeda bukamboni nomwini, bukamboni bwako tabusinizizye pe.”
14 Iesus answered, and sayde vnto them, Though I beare recorde of my selfe, yet my recorde is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I goe.
Jesu wakabasandula akwaamba kuti kulimbabo, “Nekuba kuti ndipa bukamboni bwangu ndemwini, bukamboni bwangu bulisinizizye. Ndilikwizi nkundakazwa ankwenjobuya.
15 Ye iudge after the flesh: I iudge no man.
Mubeteka chanyama; Ime nsibeteki muntu pe.
16 And if I also iudge, my iudgement is true: for I am not alone, but I, and the Father, that sent mee.
Nikuba kuti ndabeteka, kubeteka kwangu kulisinizizye nkaambo nsili aandike pe, pesi ndili aaTaata wakandituma.
17 And it is also written in your Lawe, that the testimonie of two men is true.
Iyii, alimwi mumulawu wenu kulilembedwe kuti bukamboni bwabantu babili bulisinizizye.
18 I am one that beare witnes of my selfe, and the Father that sent me, beareth witnes of me.
Ndili ooyo uulungulula bukamboni aatala alwangu, eelyo Taata wakandituma upeda bukamboni aatala andime.”
19 Then saide they vnto him, Where is that Father of thine? Iesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor that Father of mine. If ye had knowen me, ye should haue knowen that Father of mine also.
Bakati kulinguwe, “Ulikuli wuso?” Jesu wakasandula, “Takwe ngomuzi imebo na Taata; kansinga mwalindiz, mwalikunomuziba Taata alakwe.”
20 These wordes spake Iesus in the treasurie, as hee taught in the Temple, and no man layde handes on him: for his houre was not yet come.
Aaya majwi wakaamba muchibambalilo nkali kuyiisya mutempele pesi takwe muntu wakamusunga nkaambo chiindi chakwe techakalinaakkwana pe.
21 Then saide Iesus againe vnto them, I goe my way, and ye shall seeke me, and shall die in your sinnes, Whither I goe, can ye not come.
Aawo wakabaambila lubo kuti, “Ndiyobwiinka, muyondiyanduula eelyo muyofwa muzibi zyanu. Ooko nkweya, tamukonzyi kusika pe.”
22 Then said the Iewes, Will he kill himselfe, because he saith, Whither I goe, can ye not come?
Ba Juda bakati, “Mpo ulalijaya na? Nchenchicho na mpo nchati, 'Nkweya tamuyosika?”
23 And hee saide vnto them, Ye are from beneath, I am from aboue: ye are of this world, I am not of this worlde.
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Muli baansi; Imebo ndiwakujulu. Muli banyika eeyi; Mebo nsili wenyika eeyi pe.
24 I said therefore vnto you, That ye shall die in your sinnes: for except ye beleeue, that I am he, ye shall die in your sinnes.
Akaako ndakamwaambila kuti muyoofwa muzibi zyabo. Ado do mane musyome kuti NDIME, muyoofwa muzibi zyenu.”
25 Then saide they vnto him, Who art thou? And Iesus saide vnto them, Euen the same thing that I said vnto you from the beginning.
Bakati kulinguwe, ikuti kuliboobo, “Nduweni?” Jesu wakabaambila kuti, “Nzindamwaambila kuzwa kumatalikilo.
26 I haue many things to say, and to iudge of you: but he that sent me, is true, and the things that I haue heard of him, those speake I to the world.
Ndili aazintu zyiingi zyakwaamba azyakubeteka aatala andinywe. Nikubaboobo, ooyo wakandituma ulisinizizye; mpawo zintu nzyemvwa kuzwa kulinguwe, nzyezintu nzyewamba kunyika.”
27 They vnderstoode not that hee spake to them of the Father.
Tensi bakamvwisisisya pe kuti wakalikwaambula aatala aTaata.
28 Then said Iesus vnto them, When ye haue lift vp the Sonne of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I doe nothing of my selfe, but as my Father hath taught me, so I speake these things.
Jesu wakati, “Aawo mwayoonyampula Mwana waMuntu, mpempawo mpomuyooziba kuti NDIME, akuti nsichiti chintu alwangu. Mbubo Taata mbwakandiyiisya me, mbubo bewamba zintu eezi.
29 For he that sent me, is with me: the Father hath not left me alone, because I do alwayes those things that please him.
Ooyo wakandituma uli aandime, mpawo tandisiide andiike pe, nkaambo ndichita zintu zimukonda chiindi choonse.
30 As hee spake these thinges, many beleeued in him.
Nkachaambula zintu eezi Jesu, bantu biingi bakasyoma mulinguwe.
31 Then saide Iesus to the Iewes which beleeued in him, If ye continue in my worde, ye are verely my disciples,
Jesu wakati kuma Juda ibakali bamusyoma, “Na mwakkalilila mujwi lyangu, muyooba basikwiiya bangu basinizizye,
32 And shall know the trueth, and the trueth shall make you free.
alimwi muyoziba kasimpe, eelyo kasimpe kayoomwaangununa.”
33 They answered him, Wee be Abrahams seede, and were neuer bonde to any man: why sayest thou then, Ye shalbe made free?
Bakamusandula, “Tulizyalane lya Abbulahamu mpawo tatunaaba bazike bamuntu pe; waambilaaaloi kuti, 'Muyowangununwa'?”
34 Iesus answered them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, that whosoeuer committeth sinne, is the seruant of sinne.
Jesu wakabasandula, “Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila kuti, ooyo woonse uchita chibi muzike wachibi.
Muzike takkalilili mun'anda kwalyoonse; mwana ulakkalilila chalyoonse. (aiōn g165)
36 If that Sonne therefore shall make you free, ye shalbe free in deede.
Akaako, na Mwana wakwaangununa, ulaangunuka cha nchobeni.
37 I know that ye are Abrahams seede, but yee seeke to kill mee, because my worde hath no place in you.
Ndilizizi kuti muli zyalane lya Abbulahamu; muyandula kundijaya nkaambo ijwi lyangu talikwe busena mulindinywe.
38 I speake that which I haue seene with my Father: and ye doe that which ye haue seene with your father.
Ndiwamba nzindakabona kuli Taata, alimwi andinywe muchite nzimwakamvwa kuli wuso wanu.”
39 They answered, and saide vnto him, Abraham is our father. Iesus said vnto them, If ye were Abrahams children, ye woulde doe the workes of Abraham.
Bakamusandula alimwi bakati kulinguwe, “Taata wesu ngu Abbulahamu.” Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Na mwali bana ba Abbulahamu, nimunga muchita milimu ya Abbulahamu.
40 But nowe ye goe about to kill mee, a man that haue told you the trueth, which I haue heard of God: this did not Abraham.
Pesi, lino muyanduula kundijaya, muntu wamwaambila kasimpe nkendakamvwa kuli Leza. Abbulahamu takwe nakachita eechi.
41 Ye do the workes of your father. Then said they to him, We are not borne of fornication: we haue one Father, which is God.
Muchita milimu yawuso wenu.” Bakati kulinguwe, “Tetwakazyalilwa mubwamu pe; tuli aaTaata omwe: Leza.”
42 Therefore Iesus sayde vnto them, If God were your Father, then woulde ye loue mee: for I proceeded foorth, and came from God, neither came I of my selfe, but he sent me.
Jesu wakabaambila wakati, “Kaansinga Leza ngu Wuso wenu, mwalikunondiyanda, nkaambo ndakazwa kuli Leza mpawo ndili aano; nkaambo nsilizidilide pe ndemwini, pesi wakandituma.
43 Why doe ye not vnderstande my talke? because ye cannot heare my worde.
Nkaambonzi nimutamvwisisisyi majwi aangu? Kuli oobu nkaambo tamukonzyi kumvwa majwi aangu.
44 Ye are of your father the deuill, and the lustes of your father ye will doe: hee hath bene a murtherer from the beginning, and abode not in the trueth, because there is no trueth in him. When hee speaketh a lie, then speaketh hee of his owne: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
Muli bawuso wenu, dyabbulosi, alimwi mukanza kuchita ziyandisyo zyawuso. Wakali mujayi kuzwa kumatangunino mpawo tayiimvwi muchisinizyo nkaambo takwe kusinizya mulinguwe. Aawo nawamba zyakubeja, uwamba kazizwa mubube bwakwe mwini nkaambo mubeji alimwi ngowisi wabubeji.
45 And because I tell you the trueth, yee beleeue me not.
Eelyo, nkaambo ndiwamba lusinizyo, tamundisyomi pe.
46 Which of you can rebuke me of sinne? and if I say the trueth, why do ye not beleeue me?
Ngwani aakati kenu uundipa mulandu wachibi? Kuti ndaamba lusinizyo, nkambooyi nimutandisyomi?
47 He that is of God, heareth Gods wordes: yee therefore heare them not, because ye are not of God.
Muntu waLeza woonse ulaamvwa majwi aa Leza; tamwaamvwi nkaambo tamuli ba Leza.”
48 Then answered the Iewes, and said vnto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritane, and hast a deuil?
Ba Juda bakamusandula alimwi bakati kulinguwe, “Nchoonzyo tatwaambi kuti uli mu Samaliya na akuti uli aadayimona?”
49 Iesus answered, I haue not a deuil, but I honour my Father, and ye haue dishonoured me.
Jesu wakasandula, “Nsikwe dayimona pe, pesi ndilemya Taata wangu, alimwi inywe mulanduubawulusya.
50 And I seeke not mine owne praise: but there is one that seeketh it, and iudgeth.
Nsilanguuli bulemu bwangu ndemwini; kuli uumwi uuyandula akubeteka.
Chobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila, na umwi wabamba ijwi lyangu, takoyoobona lufu.” (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Iewes to him, Now know we that thou hast a deuill. Abraham is dead, and the Prophets: and thou sayest, If a man keepe my worde, he shall neuer taste of death. (aiōn g165)
Ma Juda bakati kulinguwe, “Lino twaziba kuti uli aadayimona. Abbulahamu abasinsimi bakafwa; pesi wamba kuti, 'Na umwi wabamba ijwi lyangu, takoyoolabila lufu.' (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater then our father Abraham, which is dead? and the Prophets are dead: whome makest thou thy selfe?
Toli mupati pe kwiinda taata Abbulahamu wakafwa, ulimupati na? Basinsimi abalabo bakafwa. Ulichita ani?”
54 Iesus answered, If I honour my selfe, mine honour is nothing worth: it is my Father that honoureth me, whome ye say, that hee is your God.
Jesu wakasandula, “Kuti nkelipa bulemu ndemwini, bulemu bwangu mbwabuyo; ngu Taata undilemya - ooyo ngumuti ngu Leza wanu.
55 Yet ye haue not knowen him: but I knowe him, and if I should say I know him not, I should be a liar like vnto you: but I knowe him, and keepe his worde.
Tamunaamuziba pe, pesi ndilimwizi. Kuti ndati, 'Nsimwizi, ndilaba mbuli ndinyw, mubeji. Nikuba boobo, ndimwizi alimwi ndilabamba ijwi lyakwe.
56 Your father Abraham reioyced to see my day, and he sawe it, and was glad.
Wuso wenu Abbulahamu wakabotelwa kubamba izuba lyangu; waklibona alimwi wakabotelwa.”
57 Then sayd ye Iewes vnto him, Thou art not yet fiftie yeere olde, and hast thou seene Abraham?
BamaJuda bakati kulinguwe, “Tonaakuba aaminyaka ili makkumi musanu pe, mpawo wakamubona Abbulahamu?”
58 Iesus sayd vnto them, Verely, verely I say vnto you, before Abraham was, I am.
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila Abbulahamu nkatanaaba, NDIME.”
59 Then tooke they vp stones, to cast at him, but Iesus hid himselfe, and went out of the Temple: And hee passed through the middes of them, and so went his way.
Mpawo bakabweza mabwe kuti bamutulule, pesi Jesu wakayuba akuzwa aanze kwe tempele.
