John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God;
Qaalay kasse koyro dees. Qallakka Xoossa achan dees. He qalaaykka Xoossa.
2 this One was in the beginning with God;
Izee koyro Xoossa achchan dees.
3 all things happened through Him, and without Him not even one thing happened that has happened.
Medheteththi wurii izann medhetdes. Medhettdazan izi baynda medhetiday isiinaka dukku.
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men,
Deyooy ezann deyssu. hana deyooya asas poo7.
5 and the light shined in the darkness, and the darkness did not perceive it.
Poo77y dhumaan poo7ses. dhumayy poo7 muleeka xonena.
6 There came a man—having been sent from God—whose name [is] John,
Xoossafe kiitetda Yanissa getettiza isadeey dess.
7 this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
Iza markkatithaan asi wurii amanna malla Po77s markka giddii yidess.
8 that one was not the Light, but—that he might testify about the Light.
Izi poo7o gish markatana yides atiin izi ba hues po7o gidena.
9 He was the true Light, which enlightens every man, coming into the world;
Asa wursoos po7o imiiza tumu poo7oy hayssa ha alamezan yusan dess.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him:
Qaalayka kase alamen dess. almeykka medhetdday izana. Gido atin alameey iza erribeeyna.
11 He came to [His] own, and [His] own did not receive Him;
Izi ba bagtako yiin iza bagaty iza ekiibetena.
12 but as many as received Him, to them He gave authority to become sons of God—to those believing in His Name,
Gido attin iza ekdaytii iza sunesaa amaniddayta isti xossa naytia gidana maata isstass iimdess.
13 who were begotten, not of blood, nor of will of flesh, nor of will of man, but of God.
Isttikka xossa nayta gididay xoossafe yelettida gish attin asa zeerethafe heskka asa wogan woykko asho shenen gidena.
14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of [the] only begotten of [the] Father, full of grace and truth.
Qaallayka ass giddies, Xossa kiyatethinne tumann kumidii nunaan aqqides, Isi nass awa matan diza bonchoo milatza iza booncho nu beydos.
15 John testifies concerning Him, and has cried, saying, “This was He of whom I said, He who is coming after me has come before me, for He was before me.”
Yanssaykka “tappe guyera yizaysi tafe adhees, gasooyka izi tape kaseka dess gada ta intees yotidaysi hekoo haysi izako” gii matatidess.
16 And we all received out of His fullness, and grace for grace;
Iza kumetha kiyatethan nu wuri keyatetha bolla kiyateth ekkidos.
17 for the Law was given through Moses, the grace and the truth came through Jesus Christ.
Wogay musse baggara immetidas, kiyatethine tumay gidiikoo Yesuss Kirsitosa baggara nusii yidess.
18 No one has ever seen God; the only begotten God who is on the bosom of the Father—He has expounded [Him].
Xooss beyedaye oonnkka bawa, gido attin Xossa aawa matan diza xoossa na xoossay issay xalala iza qonccissidess.
19 And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites out of Jerusalem, that they might question him, “Who are you?”
Ayhudata dannatii Yerusalamappe qeessistane Lewe nayetta Yanssakoo kitidii “ne oonee?” gidi oychchishin,
20 And he confessed and did not deny, and confessed, “I am not the Christ.”
Yanssay “tani Kiristtosa gidikee” gidi geshshi markkatides attin markkatanas ixxibeyna.
21 And they questioned him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” And he says, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” And he answered, “No.”
Isttika “histtine ne oonne? ne Elassa? gidi oychchida, izki gidike” gidi isttas zaaridess, Isttika “izi yana kittetida nabey nene?” gida. izika “akaye tana gidke” gidas.
22 Then they said to him, “Who are you, that we may give an answer to those sending us? What do you say concerning yourself?”
Istii qaas “histin ne onee? nuna kitda asas nu yotanamalla ne nena ona gay?” gida.
23 He said, “I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the LORD, as Isaiah the prophet said.”
Izika “nabe Isayasay yootidaysa mala tani xoossa ogge suriistte gishe bazoo biitann wasiizade qalla girethth” gidess.
24 And those sent were of the Pharisees,
parssawistappe kittettda issi issi asati
25 and they questioned him and said to him, “Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
Hesa gish “ne Xoossi kittidade woykko buroo yana getetida nabaye nene gidontta gidikoo hstiin azaas nuna xmaqqazi?” gidii iza oychchida.
26 John answered them, saying, “I immerse in water, but in the midst of you has stood He whom you have not known, it is this One who is coming after me, who has been before me,
Yanssaykka istasi hzgidass “ta haththn xamaqqays gido atiin inte eroontadey inte giddon eqqides.
27 of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the strap of His sandal.”
Tappe guyera yanaysi iza, ta iza ccama qachcho birshanass besizade gidikke.
28 These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing.
Haysi wuri haniday Yanssay xamiqqiza Yordanosse shshafappe he pinththan diza Biitaniyaa getetiza katamana. Biitaniyay
29 On the next day John sees Jesus coming to him and says, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;
“Wonteththa glass Yanissay Yasussay beeko yishshin beydi (deree nagara biitappe digana Xoossa doorssay hekko hysichchi!
30 this is He concerning whom I said, After me comes a Man who has come before me, because He was before me:
Tapee guyerra yanayysi izi tappe kassekka diza gish tappe adhdhess) gada ta intess yotizzay haysichch!
31 and I did not know Him, but that He might be revealed to Israel, because of this I came immersing in water.”
Takaa ta bagaraa iza eraabeyke shin gidikooka izi Isra7ele deress qonchnamala ta haththan xxamaqashshe yadiss.”
32 And John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit coming down out of Heaven as a dove, and [that] One remained on Him;
Kaleththidika Yanissayy hizgi markatidess. “Xiiloo Ayanay woole kafoo milattdii salopee woodhishshinne iza bolla uttshin beyadiss.
33 and I did not know Him, but He who sent me to immerse in water, He said to me, On whomsoever you may see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on Him, this is He who is immersing in the Holy Spirit;
Ta tabagara iza eriike shin ta haththan xmaqqanamalla tana kiitidadey (Xiilloo Ayanay iza bola wodhidi shempishshin nee beyanadey Xiiloo Ayanan meccnay izakko) gidii tas yoottidess.
34 and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.”
Taka hessa beyadiss. Hessa gish izi Xoossa na gididaysa ta markatays.”
35 On the next day, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,
Wontetha galass Yanissay bena kaliza nam7atara heen eqqides.
36 and having looked on Jesus walking, he says, “Behold, the Lamb of God”;
Yesussay iza achchara adhdhishshn Yanissay beydii “Xoossa dorssay hekkoo haysichch!” gides.
37 and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
Yanssa kalliza nam7ati hessa siiydii Yesussa kallida.
38 And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, says to them, “What do you seek?” And they said to Him, “Rabbi” (which is, being interpreted, Teacher), “where do You remain?”
Istii iza kaliishshn yesussa guye yuuy xellidii “ayy kooyetii?” gidees. Istkka “asstamaare ne dussasoy awaa?” gida.
39 He says to them, “Come and see”; they came and saw where He remains, and they remained with Him that day and the hour was about the tenth.
Izikka ista “ha ydii beyte” gidess. Hessa gish bidii izii awan dizakko be7idane he gllass izara isppe pe7ida. Wodeykka gedee tamuu sateso bidess.
40 Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed Him;
Yanissay yotida qaala siydii Yesussa kallida nam7atappe issay Simoona Phixiroossa ishsha Indirassa.
41 this one first finds his own brother Simon and says to him, “We have found the Messiah,” (which is, being interpreted, Anointed One),
Indirassay koyroo ba ishsha simoonakko bidinne “Xoossi kitida kirstossa nu demidos!” gidess.
42 and he brought him to Jesus: and having looked on him, Jesus says, “You are Simon, the son of Jonas, you will be called Cephas,” (which is interpreted, A rock).
Hesafe guye Indirassay Simoona Yesussakko ekii yides. Yesussaykka iza tishsh hisiti xelidii. “hayso ne Yoonna na Simoonakko, hayssafe guye ne Keehaaththaa geetistana.” Kehaaththaa gusi Phixrossa gusa wyykoo zlaa shuchu gusa.
43 On the next day He willed to go forth to Galilee, and He finds Philip and says to him, “Follow Me.”
Wonteththa gallas Yesusay Galilla banass koydees. Piliphoosska demiidi “tana kalla” gidess.
44 And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter;
Pilphoossaykka Indirasamalane Phixiroossamala Batesaydda kattama asa.
45 Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, “Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the Prophets, we have found, Jesus the Son of Joseph, who [is] from Nazareth!”
Piphoossay natina7ele demiidi “Mussey woga maxxafan qase nabetiikka burope hanana yotiza bee maxxafatann iza gish xafida adeza nuu demidos, izikka Yosefo na Nazirete Yesussakko” gides.
46 And Nathanael said to him, “Is any good thing able to be out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
Natina7eley qass “Nazireteppe lo7o miishi beti erizee?” gi oychin Pilphossay iza “ha yada beya” gides.
47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and He says concerning him, “Behold, truly an Israelite, in whom is no guile”;
Natina7eley Yesussa beyana yishin yesussay beydi iza “hekko geney bayndda tumu Isra77ele ass!” giidi iza gish yotidess.
48 Nathanael says to Him, “From where do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip’s calling you, being under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Natina77eleykka zaridi “tana woosta eradii?” gi oychin Yesussaykka “Pilipoossay nena xeyiganappe kase Balasse miththa garsan ne dishshin ta nena beyaddis” gi zarin.
49 Nathanael answered and says to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God, You are the King of Israel.”
Natina77eleay “asstammarea! ne Xoossa na ne Israe77ele kawo” gides.
50 Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, you believe; you will see greater things than these”;
Yesussaykka izas “ne amaniiday ta neena baallass miththa garsan beyadis” gidagsshe? ne buro hessafe adhdhiza daro miish beyana.
51 and He says to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, from now on you will see Heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down on the Son of Man.”
Gujidikka ta intes tumu gays buro sallooy dooyetin Xoossa kiitanchati asa na bolla wdhishininne kezishin inte beyana.
