John 5
1 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Pambele uYesu akaluta kulikaaja ilya Yelusalemu ku kikulukulu ikya Vayahudi.
2 Now there is in Jerusalem a pool near the Sheep-gate, called in the Hebrew, Bethesda.
Mu likaaja ilio pweghulyale umulyango um'baha ghuno ghukatambuluagha, mulyango ghwa ng'holo, piipi nu mulyango ughuo pwelilyale ililamba lino munjovele ija Kiebulania likatambulwagha Bethzatha, mulubale mulilamba ilio pwefilyale ifibalasa fihano ifyeleefu.
3 It has five colonnades. In these there used to lie a great crowd of sick people - blind, lame, paralyzed.
Mu lusulua ulwa fibalasa ifio valyaghonile avatamu vinga, avabofu amaaso, avalema amaghulu, na vanya liteela. (Vingilila: Amasio agha kadebe aka 3 naghivoneka mu malembe amanofu amakuulu. “Vakaghulagha amalenga ghatimbusivue.”)
Mu uluo, juno akavisagha ghwa kwasia kukwingila pano amalenga ghatimbwike, alyale isooka inhamu jaake.
5 And there was one man there for thirty-eight years in his infirmity.
Lino palilamba pala pwealyale umuunhu jumonga juno alyale ntamu amaaka fijigho fitatu na lekelakwoni.
6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to get well?"
UYesu akamwagha umuunhu ujuo aghonile pala alyakagwile kuuti umuunhu ujuo inhamu jaake ja maaka minga, akamposia akati, “Asi ghulonda kusooka?”
7 "Sir," answered the sick man, "I have no man to put me into the pool whenever the water is troubled; and while I am trying to come, some one else steps down before me."
Untamu jula akamwamula akati, “Ghwe Ntwa, amalenga ghangatimbusivue, nkwale umuunhu ughwa kumbiika mu lilamba. Pano nilonda kukwingila mu lilamba ye nivonagha umuunhu ujunge anhaliile pikwingila.”
8 "Rise," said Jesus, "take up your bed and go walking away."
Pe pano uYesu akam'buula akati, “Ima veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha.”
9 Instantly the man became well, and he took up his bed and started to walk. Now it was Sabbath on that day;
Pala pala umuunhu jula akasooka, akaveghala iliteefu lyake, akavuuka iluta. Ikighono ikio jaale Sabato.
10 so the Jews kept saying to the man who had been cured. "It is the Sabbath Day; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed."
Pe aVayahudi vakam'buula umuunhu jula juno asokile vakati, “Umusyughu kighono kya Sabato, indaghilo na sikwitikisia kupiinda iliteefu.”
11 He replied, "The man who healed me told me to take up my bed and walk."
Neke umuunhu jula akavamula akati, “Umuunhu juno asoosisie ghwe mwene ambulile kuuti, 'Veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha.”
12 "Who is it," they asked, "that said to you, ‘take up your bed and go walking away’?"
Vakamposia kange vakati, “Ghwe veeni juno akuvulile kuuti 'Veghala iliteefu lyako vujagha?”
13 But he who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had moved away, as there was a crowd in that place.
Neke umuunhu jula naalyammanyile juno ansosisie ulwakuva uYesu alyavukile kisyefu. Ulwakuva avaanu valyale vinga.
14 Afterward Jesus found him in the Temple, and said to him. "Look! You have become well. Do not go on sinning, lest a worse thing befall you."
Pambele uYesu akamwagha umuunhu jula munyumba inyimike ija kufunyila, akambuula akati, “Lolagha lino usokile! “Nungavombaghe inyivi kange nave ghuvomba lukukwagha ulutalamu ulukome kukila ulwa kwanda.”
15 The man went to and told the Jews that it was Jesus who made him well;
Umuunhu jula akavuuka pala akaluta kukuvavuula aVayahudi kuuti juno ansosisie ghwe Yesu.
16 and because of this the Jews began to persecute Jesus, because he had done it on the Sabbath.
Pepano, vwimila amasio aghuo aVayahudi vakampumwisie uYesu, ulwakuva alyavombile isio mu kighono ikya Sabato.
17 But he answered them, "My Father has continued working until now, and I am working too."
Neke uYesu akavavuula akati, “UNhaata ghwango ivomba imbombo ifighono fyoni, na juune nivomba imbombo ifighono fyoni.”
18 For this reason the Jews continued to seek the more eagerly to put him to death, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was actually speaking of God as his own Father, thus making himself of God’s equal.
Vwimila uluo aVayahudi vakava vighina kulonda isila ija kum'buda uYesu vakalonda kukum'buda ulwakuva vakatisagha adenyile ululaghilo lwa kighono ikya Sabati, kange ijova kuuti, uNguluve ghwe viise, kange ikuviika kuuti aling'hiine nu Nguluve.
19 So Jesus answered them in these words. "In solemn truth I tell that the Son cannot do anything of himself, except what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does also.
UYesu akavavuula akati, “Kyang'haani nikuvavuula une ne mwanaake nanivomba lumonga vwimila amasaaghe ghango, looli nivomba si sino nikumwagha uNhaata ivomba, nijova uluo, ulwakuva sino ivomba uNhaata se sino najune ne mwanaake nivoomba.
20 "For the Father loves the Son, and shows him every thing that he himself is doing. And greater deeds than these will he show him, that you may wonder.
UNhaata anganile une ne mwanaake, ikuhofia sooni sino ivomba umwene, kange ilikuhufia une imbombo sino ilonda nivombe, imbombo imbaha kukila isio, kuuti pe mudeghe fiijo.
21 "For just as the Father raises the dead and makes them alive, even so the Son makes whom he will alive.
Ndavule uNhaata vule ikuvasyusia avafue na kukuvapeela uvwumi, fye enendiiki na juune nikuvapeela uvwumi, vano nilonda kukuvapeela.
22 "The Father indeed does not judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son,
Ulwakuva uNhaata naihigha muunhu, looli ampeliile umwanake uvutavulilua uvwa kuhigha,
23 "in order that all may honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor Son, does not honor the Father who sent him.
Kuuti avaanhu vooni vamwoghopaghe ndavule vikumwoghopa umwene. Umuunhu juno naikumwoghopa umwanake naikumwoghopa uNhata juno ansung'hile.
24 "I tell you solemnly that he who listens to my messages and believes Him who sent me, has eternal life. He will not come under condemnation, but has passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
Kyang'haani nikuvavuula, umuunhu juno ipulika amasio ghango na kukumwitika uNguluve juno asung'hile ali nu vwumi uvwa fighono fyoni. Kange nailihighua. Looli ujuo akilile uvufue na kukwingila ku vwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila. (aiōnios g166)
25 "Solemnly I tell you that the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear shall live.
Kyang'haani nikuvavuula, unsiki ghukwisa, kange ghufikile, avafue vilipulika, viliiva nu vwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila.
26 "For as the Father has life in himself, so also has he granted to the Son to have life in himself.
Nijo uluo ulwakuva ndavule uNhaata vule ali ni ngufu isa kumpeela umuunhu uvwumi uvwa kuvisila kusila, najuune amheliile ingufu isa kuvapeela avaanhu uvwumi uvuo.
27 "And he has given him authority to pronounce judgment, because he is Son of man.
Kange, amheliile uvtavulilua uvwa kuhigha avaanhu, ulwakuva une nili, Mwana ghwa Muunhu.
28 "Do not wonder at this, because an hour is coming in which all who are in their graves shall hear his voice and shall come forth again;
Namungadeghaghe amasio aghuo, ulwakuva ghukwisa unsiki ghuno avafue vooni vilipulika ing'hemeelo jaango.
29 "those who have done good into a resurrection of life, and those who have practised evil to a resurrection of condemnation.
Avafue vilisyuka: vano vavombagha inofu viiva nu vwumi uvwa fighono fyoni, vano vavombagha uvuhosi vilihighua.
30 "I can of my own self do nothing. As I listen, I judge, and my own judgment is just, because I am not seeking my own will, but the will of Him who sent me.
UYesu akafijovagha akati une nanivomba kimonga vwimila amasaaghe ghango, une nihigha avaanhu ndavule ikumbuula uNhata. Nihigha mu vwakyang'haani, ulwakuva nanivomba muvughane vwango, looli mu vughane vwa Nguluve juno asung'hile.
31 "If I bear testimony concerning myself, my testimony is not valid.
Nave une nikujoleka juune, uvwolesi vwango navwale vuuva vwa kyang'haani.
32 "Another bears testimony to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears concerning me is valid.
Looli kwale ujunge juno ikwoleka imhola sango na juune nikagwile kuuti sino ikwoleka vwimila une sa kyang'haani.
33 "You yourselves sent to John, and he has been and is a witness to the truth.
Umue mulyasung'hile avaanhu kwa Yohani umwofughi, ghwope alyavoliike isa kyang'haani vwimila une.
34 "(Though for myself I accept no witness from man; I only mention that you may be saved.)
Neke une nanihuviila sino vikwoleka avaanhu, ulwene nijova isi kuuti mukave uvupoki.
35 "That man was the Lamp-burning and shining - and you were willing for a time rejoice in his light.
UYohani umwofughi alyahufisie uvwakyang'haani kulyumue, ndavule itaala vule jiviika na kumulika mung'hiisi, umue mulyahovwike vwimila uluo ku nsiki ndebe.
36 "But I have testimony greater than that of John; for the work which the Father has given me to bring to completion - the work which I am doing - bears testimony concerning me, that the Father has sent me.
Neke une nili ni mhola sino sikunyoleka fiijo kukila sino alyoliike uYohani, ulwakuva imbombo sino nivomba, sino alyamheliile uNhaata kuuti nivombe, se sino sikunyoleka kuuti uNhaata juno asung'hile.
37 "And the Father who sent me has himself borne testimony concerning me. None of you has heard his at any time or seen him,
Ghope uNhaata juno asunghile une, ikwoleka imhola sango. Umue namughelile nambe lusiku kupulika ilisio lyake, kukumwagha vule alivuo unsiki ghwoni.
38 nor had his word dwelling within you, because you do not believe him whom he sent.
Kange imbulanisio saake nasili nkate mulyumue ulwakuva namukumwitika juno asung'hilue kulyumue.
39 "You are searching the Scriptures because you suppose that in tem you have eternal life; and though these are they that bear witness concerning me, (aiōnios g166)
Mughimba kulolesia mu malembe amimike, ulwakuva musagha kuti nkate umuo mukava uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila, amalembe aghu ghikunyoleka une. (aiōnios g166)
40 "you will not come to me that you may have life.
Neke umue namulonda kukwisa kulyune, kuuti mu pelue uvwumi uvwumi uvwa kuvusila kusila.
41 "I am not receiving honor from men, but I know you,
Une nanihuviila avaanhu vanginie,
42 "that you have not the love of God in yourselves.
neke nikagwile kuuti nkate mulyumue namuli nu lughano lwa Nguluve.
43 "I am come in the name of my Father and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, him you will receive.
Une nisile mu vutavulilua uvwa Nhaata ghwango, umue namukunyupila. Neke ujunge angiise mu vutavulilua vwake jujuo, mwale mukumwupila.
44 "How can you believe when you receive glory from, one another, and have no desire for the glory which comes from the only God?
Lino ndepoonu mukunyitika ndaani umue mwe vano mulonda kughinisivua na vaanhu, namulonda kughinisivua nu Nguluve juno ali jumo mwene?
45 "Do not imagine that I shall accuse you to the Father. Moses is your accuser, on whom you build your hopes.
Mulekaghe piiti ue nilikuvatwala kwa Nhaata avahighe. UMoose ghwe juno ilikuvatwala muhighue ulwakuva ghwe juno mukumhuviila.
46 "For if you believed Moses you would believe me, for he wrote about me.
Musava mukumwitika uMoose, ngale mukunyitika na juune, ulwakuva alyalembile imhola sango.
47 And if you do not believe his writings, how will you ever believe my words?"
Neke nave namukwitika amasio ghano alyalembile uMoose, ndepoonu mukwitika ndaani amasio ghango?
