John 8
1 Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
Tedae Jesuh tah olive tlang la cet.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
Mincang ah bawkim la koep ha pawk hatah pilnam pum loh a taengla a paanuh. Te dongah ngol tih amih te a thuituen.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
Te vaengah cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh huta pakhat te a samphaihnah neh a tuuk uh tih a khuen uh.
4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
Anih te a laklung ah a pai sak uh phoeiah, Jesuh te, “Saya, hekah huta he a samphaih li vaengah ka tuuk uh.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
Tedae olkhueng dongah tah hebang he dae hamla Moses loh mamih n'uen coeng. Te koinih nang tah metlae na ti eh?” a ti nauh.
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
Tedae he nen he amah paelnaeh ham a khueh uh dongah a noemcai uh tih a voek uh. Te dongah Jesuh loh buluk thuk tih kutdawn neh lai ah a daek.
7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
Tedae amah te koepkoep a dawt uh vaengah pai tih amih te, “Nangmih khuikah aka tholh mueh loh anih te lamhma la lungto neh dae saeh,” a ti nah.
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
Te phoeiah koep buluk tih lai ah a daek.
9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
A yaak uh vaengah patong lamkah a tong tih pakhat pakhat ah boeih cet uh. Te dongah Jesuh neh a laklung kah aka om huta bueng la cul.
10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
Te vaengah Jesuh te pai tih, “Huta, melam a om uh? nang m'boe sak moenih nama?” a ti nah.
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
Te dongah te long te, “Boeipa, om pawh ue,” a ti nah. Jesuh loh, “Kai khaw nang kan boe sak moenih. Cet lamtah tahae lamkah tholh voel boeh,” a ti nah.
12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Te phoeiah Jesuh te amih taengah koep cal tih, “Kai tah Diklai kah vangnah ni. Kai aka vai rhoek tah a hmuep ah pongpa voel pawt vetih hingnah hmaivang te a khueh ni,” a ti nah.
13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
Te dongah amah te Pharisee rhoek loh, “Nang loh namah kawng ni na phong, na olphong te oltak om pawh,” a ti nauh.
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Kai loh kamah kawng ka phong cakhaw kai kah olphong te oltak la om. Me lamkah ka lo tih mela ka caeh khaw ka ming. Tedae nangmih loh me lamkah ka lo tih mela ka caeh khaw na ming uh pawh.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Nangmih loh pumsa neh lai na tloekuh. Kai tah ukhaw lai ka tloek moenih.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
Tedae lai ka tloek van coeng atah kamah bueng ka om pawt tih kai aka tueih a pa neh kai ka om rhoi dongah kai kah laitloeknah tah a thuem la om pataeng.
17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
Olkhueng dongah khaw nangmih ah hlang panit kah olphong te thuem tila a daek coeng.
18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
Kai loh kamah kawng aka phong la ka om dae kai aka tueih a pa loh kai kawng a phong,” a ti nah.
19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.
Te dongah amah te, “Na pa te melam a om?” a ti nauh. Jesuh loh, “Kai nan ming uh pawt tih a pa khaw na ming uh pawh. Kai nan ming uh koinih a pa te khaw na ming uh ni,” a ti nah.
20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
Bawkim ah a thuituen vaengah hekah ol he tangkabu kaepah a thui dae amah kah a tue a pha hlan dongah anih te tuu uh pawh.
21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
Te dongah amih te, “Ka caeh vaengah kai nan toem uh cakhaw namamih kah tholh ah na duek uh ni. Mela ka caeh khaw nan pha uh ham coeng pawh,” koep a ti nah.
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
Te dongah Judah rhoek loh, “Amah ngawn uh la cai pawt nim? 'Mela ka caeh khaw na loh ham coeng pawh,’ a ti he,” a ti uh.
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Te vaengah amih te, “Nangmih tah a hmui lamkah ni. Kai tah a so lamkah ni. Nangmih tah he Diklai lamkah ni. Kai tah he Diklai lamkah ka om moenih.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Te dongah namamih kah tholh ah na duek uh ni tila nangmih taengah ka thui. Kai he amah ni tila na tangnah uh pawt atah namamih kah tholh ah na duek uh ni,” a ti nah.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
Te dongah amah te, “Nang ulae,” a ti nauh. Jesuh loh amih taengah, “Pakhat khaw a tongcuek ah nangmih ham kan thui van te ta?
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
Nangmih kawng te thui ham neh laitloek ham muep om. Tedae kai aka tueih tah oltak la om. Kai khaw anih taengkah ka yaak te ni Diklai ah ka thui,” a ti nah.
27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
Amih taengah Pa kah a thui tila ming uh pawh.
28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih taengah, “Hlang capa te na pomsang uh daengah ni kai ni ti khaw, kamah lamkah ka saii pawt tih a pa loh kai n'thuituen vanbangla ka thui he khaw na ming uh eh.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
Te dongah kai aka tueih te kai taengah om tih anih kolo te ka saii taitu dongah kamah bueng n'hlahpham moenih,” a ti nah.
30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.
Hekah a thui vanbangla amah te muep a tangnah uh.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
Te dongah Jesuh loh amah aka tangnah Judah rhoek taengah, “Kai kah olka ah na naeh atah kai kah hnukbang taktak la na om uh.
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Oltak te na ming uh van daengah ni oltak loh nangmih n'loeih sak eh,” a ti nah.
33 They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
Te dongah Jesuh amah te, “Kaimih tah Abraham kah tiingan la ka om uh tih sal ka bi uh noek moenih. Metlam lae nang loh, 'Aka loeih la na om uh ni' na ti?” a ti nauh.
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, tholh aka saii boeih tah tholh kah sal la om.
Sal tah im ah kumhal duela a naeh moenih, capa tah kumhal duela naeh ta. (aiōn g165)
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Te dongah capa loh nangmih n'loeih sak atah aka loeih la rhep na om uh ni.
37 I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
Abraham kah tiingan la na om uh tila ka ming. Tedae kai kah olka he nangmih ah a om pawt dongah kai ngawn hamla nan mae uh.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
Kai loh Pa taengkah ka hmuh te ka thui dae nangmih tah na pa taengkah na yaak uh te na saii uh,” a ti nah.
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
Te dongah Jesuh te a doo uh tih, “Kaimih napa tah Abraham ni,” a ti uh. Jesuh loh amih te, “Abraham kah ca la na om uh koinih Abraham kah khoboe te na saii uh ni.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
Tedae kai Pathen taeng lamkah oltak ka yaak tih nangmih taengah aka thui hlang te ngawn ham na mae uh coeng. Abraham loh he tlam he a saii moenih.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
Nangmih loh na pa bisai te na saii uh,” a ti nah. Te dongah amah te, “Kaimih he Cukhalnah kah a sak moenih. A pa pakhat Pathen ka khueh uh,” a ti uh.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Pathen te na pa la om koinih kai loh Pathen taeng lamkah ka lo tih ka pawk coeng dongah kai nan lungnah uh ham om. Kai kamah lamloh ka pawk pawt tih anih long ni kai n'tueih.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
Ba dongah kai kah olcal te na ming uh pawh. Kai kah olka te hnatun ham na coeng uh pawt dongah ni.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Na pa lamkah rhaithae la na om uh rhoe tih na pa kah hoehhamnah te saii ham na ngaihuh. Anih te a cuekca lamkah hlang aka ngawn ni. A khuiah oltak a om pawt dongah oltak ah pai pawh. Laithae neh laithae napa la om tih a cal vaengah a laithae te a phoe.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
Tedae kai loh oltak ka thui dongah kai nan tangnah uh pawh.
46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
Nangmih ah unim kai kah tholh aka toeltham? Oltak ka thui atah balae tih kai nan tangnah uh pawh?
47 He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
Pathen taeng lamkah aka om loh Pathen kah olka te a hnatun. Te dongah na hnatun uh pawt khaw Pathen kah hut la na om uh pawt dongah ni,” a ti nah.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
Judah rhoek loh amah te a dawt uh tih, “Nang he Samaria hlang ni, rhaithae na kaem tila ka thui uh te a thuem moenih a?” a ti nauh.
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
Jesuh loh, “Rhaithae ka kaem moenih, a pa te ni ka hinyah dae nangmih loh kai yah nan baiuh.
50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Kai loh kamah thangpomnah ka mae moenih. Tedae aka toem tih lai aka tloek te om ngawn.
Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui. Khat khat loh kai ol a kuem atah kumhal duela dueknah hmu loengloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah. (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
Te dongah Judah rhoek loh amah te, “Rhaithae na kaem te hnap ka ming uh. Abraham neh tonghma rhoek te duek coeng dae nang mai loh, 'Khat khat loh kai ol te a kuem atah kumhal duela dueknah ten voel mahpawh, ' na ti. (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
A pa Abraham lakah tanglue la na om pawt nim? Anih khaw duek coeng, tonghma rhoek khaw duek uh coeng. Namah te u lam nim na ngai uh?” a ti nauh.
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
Jesuh loh, “Kai loh kamah ka thangpom koinih kai kah thangpomnah te a honghi la om ni. Kai aka thangpom tah a pa ni. Amah te nangmih loh, ‘Mamih kah Pathen ni,’ na ti uh.
55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
Amah te na ming uh pawt cakhaw kai tah amah te ka ming. Amah ka ming pawt te ka thui koinih nangmih phek la laithae la ka om ni. Tedae amah te ka ming tih a ol te ka kuem coeng.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
Na pa Abraham loh kai kah khohnin a hmuh ham te a kohoe tih a hmuh vaengah omngaih,” a ti nah.
57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Te dongah Judah rhoek loh amah te, “Kum sawmnga na lo hlan dae Abraham na hmuh pawn a?” a ti nauh.
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, Abraham a om hlanah ka om coeng,” a ti nah.
59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Te vaengah amah te dae ham lungto a rhuh uh. Tedae Jesuh loh a thuh tak tih bawkim lamkah vik cet.
