< John 6 >
1 After these things Jesus went away beyond the Sea of Galilee (of Tiberias),
Ni kogon biyi, Yesu rugran ba-ne Galili iwa ba yo ndji mba-ne Tibaniya.
2 and there was following Him a great multitude, because they were seeing His signs that He was doing on the ailing;
Gbirjubu ndji gbugbuu ba lu ni hu ni kpe wa asi tie'a ni bi lilo ba.
3 and Jesus went up to the mountain, and He was sitting with His disciples there,
Yesu lu hon hi ka son ni tu ngbulu ba-ba almajeran ma.
4 and the Passover was near, the celebration of the Jews.
(Gan ri igan idin u za gran igan Yahudawa a te whir).
5 Jesus then having lifted up [His] eyes and having seen that a great multitude comes to Him, says to Philip, “From where will we buy loaves, that these may eat?”
Yesu zun tu hon na toh gbugbu ndji ba gyen klan si ye niwu na hla ni filibu, “ni tsen ki fe bredi, wa ki no indji biyi?”
6 And this He said, trying him, for He Himself had known what He was about to do.
(A tre naki na tsar to ni tu iwa wawu me a toh ikpe iwa ani tie.)
7 Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii worth of loaves are not sufficient to them, that each of them may receive some little”;
Filibu ka ha sa niwu “bredi dena rii deri hari me ana zrani ndji fie fie me na.”
8 one of His disciples—Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter—says to Him,
Iri ni mi Almajere ma Andarawus, vayi siman Bitrus, hla ni Yesu,
9 “There is one little boy here who has five barley loaves and two fishes, but these—what are they to so many?”
Ige Ivren ri a nji igbele ton u shai'ir ni lambe hari. a geri iwa yi ni tie ni gbugbu indji bi yi?”
10 And Jesus said, “Make the men to sit down”; and there was much grass in the place, the men then sat down, in number, as it were, five thousand,
Yesu tre ndu indji kuson.” (Bubu'a me a tie gega.) U lilon ba ba kusun, tsra indji dubu ton.
11 and Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed [them] to the disciples, and the disciples to those reclining, in like manner, also of the little fishes as much as they wished.
U Yesu a ban bredi ni kogon wa, a gira na ga bi wa ba kusun meme na la ga lambe naki, na wa ba ba son.
12 And when they were filled, He says to His disciples, “Gather together the broken pieces that are left over, that nothing may be lost”;
Niwa indji ba-ba whurji wa hla ni almajere ma, “ni ndu ba vu gburugbuma iwa a don ba shutie, ni ndu na tie meme na (asara na).”
13 they gathered together, therefore, and filled twelve hand-baskets with broken pieces, from the five barley loaves that were over to those having eaten.
U ba vu shu ni sisen wulon don hari gburugbu bredi u sisen iton wa ba don mbru ma, ni kogon wa bari whrji.
14 The men, then, having seen the sign that Jesus did, said, “This is truly the Prophet who is coming into the world”;
U indji ba toh gban iwa a tie, u ba tre, “A njanji iwa yi ahi anabin iwa ani ye ni gbungbunluyi.”
15 Jesus, therefore, having known that they are about to come, and to seize Him by force that they may make Him king, retired again to the mountain Himself alone.
U Yesu toh ndi ba lu ni ye ban wuni gbengbenle na nye-wu tie Ichu, na lu k'ban hi ni tu gbulu kima.
16 And when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
U yalu tie almajere ma ba lu grji hi ni teku.
17 and having entered into the boat, they were going over the sea to Capernaum, and darkness had already come, and Jesus had not come to them,
Na ri ni mi ghu, na rugran hi ni Kafarnahum, (ni ton wa ibwu tie ye, Yesu na ye ni ba rina.)
18 the sea also—a great wind blowing—was being raised,
Gyugyu ri u gbengbenle ma u njanji ni rhi, teku ni lu ni kinkir.
19 having pushed onward, therefore, about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they behold Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near to the boat, and they were afraid;
Nikogon wa ba dran ghu hi na mil ashiri don ton ko talatin, u ba kushi ni Yesu a zren nitu teku siye na te whiwhir ni jirgi'a, u ba ti sisir.
20 and He says to them, “I AM; do not be afraid”;
Iwa hla ni ba wu, ahi me, na tisisir na.”
21 they were willing then to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat came to the land to which they were going.
Niki u ba kpayenmen na kpa ni jirgi'a, hihari me jirgi ka ri ni gacci (bubu u jundi zi'a).
22 On the next day, the multitude that was standing on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little boat there except one—that into which His disciples entered—and that Jesus did not go in with His disciples into the little boat, but His disciples went away alone
Ni ivi u ha ibrun klan ndi wa ba krhi ni gran teku ni korima ba tra andi jirgi ri na la don gan na niki se iri, iwa ndi Yesu na ri hu almajeran ma na u ba luhi ni grji ba.
23 (and other little boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate the bread, the LORD having given thanks),
Se jirgi bari wa ba rji ni Tibariya whiewhir ni bubu wa indi ba son na tan gurasa ni kogon wa Yesu a ngiri'a.
24 when therefore the multitude saw that Jesus is not there, nor His disciples, they also entered into the boats themselves, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus;
Niwa indji ba ye toh andi Yesu ni almajaren ma ba he ni ba niki na, ni tie tu mba ba lu ri ni mi jirgi ba na hi ni Kafarnahum ni wa Yesu.
25 and having found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when have You come here?”
Na ka toh ni gran teku'a, na miyen “Mallam, anitan mba u ye ni wayi?”
26 Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were satisfied;
Yesu a sa ni bawu andi, “Njanji, bi si wame yi, ana ni tu wa bi toh igban ikpe wa mi tie'a ni ye na, a nitu wa bi tan gurasar ni wherji.
27 do not work for the food that is perishing, but for the food that is remaining to continuous life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for the Father sealed Him—[even] God.” (aiōnios )
Ban chuwo ni tie kpabi ya ni bubu wa biri wa ani tie meme na, se bi ka wa biri iwa ani son kubon na nji yi hi ni viri (re) u tunturu iwa vren ndi ni no yin'a. (aiōnios )
28 Therefore they said to Him, “What may we do that we may work the works of God?”
Bika miyen, “ahi geri ki tie iwa ani hu son u Rji'a?
29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you may believe in Him whom He sent.”
Yesu sa ni bawu, “iwa yi a hi ndu Rji, ni ndu yi kpayenmen ni indi iwa a ton'a.
30 Therefore they said to Him, “What sign, then, do You do, that we may see and may believe You? What do You work?
U ba miyen, “ahi nkpan geri u tie, ni ndu ta toh, u ni kpayenmen ni wu'a?
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, according as it is having been written: He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat.”
Ahi geri u tie? Ba tietie-mbu ba tan manna ni miji nawa ba nhan, “Iwa no ba gurasar rji ni shu ni ndu ba tan.'”
32 Jesus, therefore, said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread out of Heaven;
Yesu hla ni bawu, “Njanji, mi si hla ni yiwu, ana Musa yi noyi gurasar rji ni shuna ahi Itie mu mba a no yi gurasar u njanji rji ni shulu.
33 for the bread of God is Him coming down out of Heaven, and giving life to the world.”
Gurasar u Rji ani krji rji ni shu na no iviri ni gbungbulu'a.”
34 Therefore they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”
U ba hla niwu, “mallam, ta nota gurasar bi kima ko ni ton rime.”
35 And Jesus said to them, “I AM the bread of life; he who is coming to Me may not hunger, and he who is believing in Me may not thirst—at any time;
Yesu hla ni bawu, ahi meyi mi gurasar iwa ani ano iviri (re) indji wa a ye ni me iyon na tiwu na, indji wa a kpa yenmen ni me hlan ma nala tie wu gana.
36 but I said to you that you also have seen Me, and you do not believe;
Ndi mi hla ni yiwu, njanji bi toh me, naki me bina kpayenmen na.
37 all that the Father gives to Me will come to Me; and him who is coming to Me, I will never cast outside,
Indji wa Itie a ne niwu'a ani ye nime, iwa a ye nimea mina zu menmelen mu na.
38 because I have come down out of Heaven, not that I may do My will, but the will of Him who sent Me.
Mina grji rji ni shu ye, nitu mi tie ikpe iwa me son ki mu na, se de ikpe u son Indji iwa a ton Me.
39 And this is the will of the Father who sent Me, that all that He has given to Me, I may lose none of it, but may raise it up in the last day;
A hi wa yiyi ikpe u son indji wa a ton me, ni ndu mina wa kperi hanma ni mi biyina niwa ani se mika taba shimen ni vi u klakla'a.
40 and this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who is beholding the Son, and is believing in Him, may have continuous life, and I will raise him up in the last day.” (aiōnios )
Ahi wayi, i ahi son Itiemu, ndi indji iwa a toh vren na kpayenmen wu ani fe viri u son kuk'bon. Ime ni tashimen ni vi u klakla'a. (aiōnios )
41 The Jews, therefore, were murmuring at Him, because He said, “I AM the bread that came down out of Heaven”;
Yahudawa balu ni chaba gburgbu ni tuma, nitu iwa atra, “Ahi meyi mi Gurasar iwa grji ni shu'a.
42 and they said, “Is this not Jesus, the Son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have known? How then does this One say, I have come down out of Heaven?”
Ba tre ana wayi, i ahi Yesu Ivren Yusufu, iwa Itima ni Iyima wa ki toh ba na? A ni he ri zizan ani tre andi mi grji rji ni shu?
43 Jesus answered, therefore, and said to them, “Do not murmur with one another;
Yesu hla ni bawu, “Ba chuwo ni chaba mlama ni kpabi.
44 no one is able to come to Me if the Father who sent Me may not draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day;
Ba iri iwa ani ya ye ni me, se Iti mu wa a ton me ye a njiwu ye, mit tawu shimechachu u kekle.
45 it is having been written in the Prophets: And they will all be taught of God; everyone, therefore, who heard from the Father, and learned, comes to Me;
Ba nha nyi nha zi ni mi littatafe ana bawa andi, wawu mbawu Irji Bachi ni tsoro ba, u indji wa a wo ni tie, ani ye ni me.
46 not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God, He has seen the Father.
Niwa idiori ti bre to ni tie'ana, se wawu iwa a rji ni Bachi - a to Bachi.
47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who is believing in Me has continuous life; (aiōnios )
Njanji, njanji, indji wa a kpawu nyeme ahe ni iviri u tuntru. (aiōnios )
48 I AM the bread of life;
Ihe me nyi mi bredi u viri.
49 your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died;
Ba ti bi ba ri mana ni miji, na kwu.
50 this is the bread that is coming down out of Heaven, that anyone may eat of it, and not die.
I wa nyi ahi bredi u wa a grji rji ni shu ndi indji wa a ri ngbala ma wa ka na kwu na.
51 I AM the living bread that came down out of Heaven; if anyone may eat of this bread he will live—throughout the age; and the bread also that I will give is My flesh, that I will give for the life of the world.” (aiōn )
Ime nyi mi gurasa u re (iviri) wa a grji rji ni shu. Indji iwa a ri ni mi gurasa, ani son hi tuntru gurasa yi wa mi no ahi kpamu nitu kpa gbungbulu chu wo.” (aiōn )
52 The Jews, therefore, were striving with one another, saying, “How is this One able to give us [His] flesh to eat?”
Yahudawa ba tifu nimi mba na ni sen nyu ni kpamba'a andi ani he iguyi ani ya nota inan ma kpama ki tan?
53 Jesus, therefore, said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, if you may not eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and may not drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves;
U Yesu hla bawu, “Njanji, njanji, bita na tan inanma kpa ivren indji na ni nan so iyin mana, bi na fe iviri ni mi bina.
54 he who is eating My flesh, and is drinking My blood, has continuous life, and I will raise him up in the last day; (aiōnios )
Indji iwa a tan nanma mu na so inyi mu ani Iviri tuntru, mila zun lude ni ivi u kekle. (aiōnios )
55 for My flesh is truly food, and My blood is truly drink;
A hla bawu, “Ikisa mi nhla ni yiwu. Nitu inanma mu ahi biri u njanji, iyi mu me ahi ikpe u so u njanji.
56 he who is eating My flesh, and is drinking My blood, remains in Me, and I in him.
Indji iwa a tan nanma mu, na so iyi mu a son ni mi mu, imeme mi son niwu.
57 According as the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, he also who is eating Me, even that one will live because of Me;
Na wa itimbu u iviri a ton me, naki mi zren na ti'a, ana ki indji iwa a tan nmma mu, ani son nitu mu.
58 this is the bread that came down out of Heaven; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread will live—throughout the age.” (aiōn )
Iwa yi ahi gurasa iwa a grji rji ni shulu, ana iri u ba tibi wa ba tan na kwu na, indji iwa a tan gurasa ani son tuntru.” (aiōn )
59 He said these things in a synagogue, teaching in Capernaum;
Yesu hla kpi biyi ni mi ma, njamiya niwa a si tsoro ba ni Kafarnahum.
60 many, therefore, of His disciples having heard, said, “This word is hard; who is able to hear it?”
Ni wo naki, gbugbuwu ni mi almajaranma ba tre, itre yi a hi ni krifi, i he nha ani ya wo wu?”
61 And Jesus having known in Himself that His disciples are murmuring about this, said to them, “Does this stumble you?
Yesu ato ni mi soron ma andi almajereanma, basi chabangbu ru ngbu kima, na miyen ba, “Iwa yi kati lahtre?
62 If then you may behold the Son of Man going up where He was before?
Ani he nihe bi ti to ivren indji ni hon ni hi ni bubuma u sen na?
63 It is the Spirit that is giving life; the flesh does not profit anything; the sayings that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life;
Ruhu ni iviri, ikpa na ti kperi na. Ahi tre wa mi tre ni yiwu hi Ruhu, u ba ivri.
64 but there are certain of you who do not believe”; for Jesus had known from the beginning who they are who are not believing, and who is he who will deliver Him up,
Ni naki bari mbi ni wayi bana kpa nyime na.” U Yesu toh rji ni mumla'a wawu biwa bana kpa nyime na nda toh ndji wa ani ka'u no dun ba wu'u.
65 and He said, “Because of this I have said to you, No one is able to come to Me if it may not have been given him from My Father.”
A hla ndi, “A nitu kii mba mi hla ni yiwu ndi ndrjo ri na ye nime na se to Bachi mu no'u nkon dun ye nime.”
66 From this [time] many of His disciples went away backward, and were no longer walking with Him,
Ni kogon kima, gbugbuu ba k'ban hi ni kogon nimi almajanre ma, bati bre hla zren ni wu ngana.
67 Jesus, therefore, said to the Twelve, “Do you also wish to go away?”
Yesu minye wulon don hari ba, biyi bi na son hi na, ka nan nakina?
68 Simon Peter, therefore, answered Him, “Lord, to whom will we go? You have sayings of continuous life; (aiōnios )
Bitrus a sa niwu, iwu timbu, ni nha ki hi niwu? Iwu nyi u he ni itre re (ivir) son hi tuntru. (aiōnios )
69 and we have believed, and we have known, that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Kita ki to ni kpanyeme iwu yi u tsatsra ichu u Rji.”
70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose you—the Twelve? And of you—one is a devil.”
Yesu hla bawu, “Ana me mi chu yi na, biyi wulon don hari na, iri ni mi bi ani ahi ibirji?”
71 And He spoke of Judas, [son] of Simon Iscariot, for he was about to deliver Him up, being one of the Twelve.
Asi tre ni Yahuda vivren Siman Iskariyoti, a hi ri ni mi wulon don hari ba, iwa ani ka yesu noba'a.
