John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Kubhwandelu kwa jhela ni Lilobhi, ni Lilobhi ajhela pamonga ni K'yara, ni lilobhi ajhele K'yara.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
E'le lilobhi, kubhwandelu ajhele pamonga ni K'yara.
3 All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
Fenu fyoha fyabhombiki kup'etela muene, ni bila muene kujhelepi khenu kimonga kya kikajhele kimalikubhombibhwa.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
Mugati mwa muene kwajhele ni bhusima, ni bhusima obhu bhwajhele nuru jha bhanadamu bhoha.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
Nuru jing'ara mu ngisi, wala ngisi jhajhisimisi lepi.
6 There came a man, sent from God, whose name was Yukhanan.
Pajhe ni munu jha atumibhu kuh'omela kwa K'yara, ambajhe lihina lya muene akutibhweghe Yohana.
7 He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
Ahidili kama shahidi kushuhudila kuhusu nuru jhela, ili kwamba bhoha bhabhwesiajhi kuamini kup'etela muene.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
Yohana ajhelepi nuru jhela, bali ahidili kushuhudila kuhusu nuru jhela.
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
Ejhu jhajhele nuru jha bhukweli ambajho jhajhele jhihida ku dunia najhu jhikampela nuru kila mmonga
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
Ajhele ku dunia ni dunia jhabhombiki kup'etela muene, ni dunia jhammanyi lepi.
11 He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
Ahidili kwa fenu fya muene, nibharui bha muene bhabelikumpokela.
12 But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
Bali kwa bhala bhingi bhabhampokili, ambabho bhaliamini lihina lya muene, kwa abhu abhapelili haki jha kujha bhana bha K'yara,
13 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Ambabho bhahogoliki, sio kwa damu, wala kwa mapenzi gha mb'ele, wala kwa mapenzi gha munu, bali kwa K'yara muene.
14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
Nu muene Lilobhi abhombiki mb'ele ni kutama miongoni mwa tete, tubhubhwene bhutukufu bhwa muene, bhutukufu kama bhwamunu muene ghwa pasima ahidili kuh'omela kwa dadi, amemili neema ni kweli.
15 Yukhanan testified about him. He shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
Yohana ashuhudili kuhusu muene, na akwesili sauti ajobhili, “Ojho ndo jha najobhili habari sya muene najobhili, “Jhola jhaibetakuhida badala jha nene ndo mbaha kuliko nene, kwa ndabha ajhele kabla jha nene.”
16 For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
Kwa kujha kuh'omela mu bhutimilifu bhwa muene, tete twebhoha tupokili mebhu kipawa baada jha kipawa.
17 For the Law was given through Mushe, grace and truth came through Yeshua Meshikha.
Kwa kujha sheria jhaletibhu kup'etela Musa. Neema ni kweli fyahidili kup'etela Yesu kristu.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
Ajhelepi mwanadamu jhaambwene K'yara wakati bhuoha. Munu muene ambajhe ndo K'yara, jhaajhele pa kifua kya dadi, ambombili muene amanyikanayi.
19 And this is Yukhanan's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Urishlim to ask him, "Who are you?"
Na obhu ndo bhushuhuda bhwa Yohana wakati makuhani ni walawi bhabhatumibhu kwa muene ni bhayahudi kun'kota, “Bhebhe wa niani?”
20 And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Meshikha."
Bila kusitasita na abelilepi, bali ajibili, “Nene na Kristu lepi.”
21 And they asked him, "What then? Are you Eliya?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
Hivyo bhakan'kota, “henu bhebhe ghweniani?” Bhebhe ndo Eliya? Akajobha, “Nene lepi.” Bhakajobha bhebhe wa niani wa nabii? Ajibili,” Lepi.”
22 They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
Kisha bhakan'jobhela, “Bhebhe wa niani, ili tubhapelayi lijibu bhabhatutumili”? Ukishuhudilayi wajhobhi?”
23 He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Eshaya the prophet said."
Akajobha, “Nene na sauti jha muene jha ajhe nyikani: 'Mujhinyosiajhi njela jha Bwana,' kama nabii Isaya kyaajobhili.”
24 (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
Basi kwajhele ni bhanu bha bhatumibhu pala kuhoma kwa Mafarisayo. Bhakan'kota ni kujobha,
25 And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Meshikha, nor Eliya, nor the Prophet?"
“Kwa ndabha jha kiki wibatisya basi kama bhebhe sio Kristu wala Eliya wala nabii?”
26 Yukhanan answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
Yohana abhajibili akajobha, “Nibatisya kwa masi. Hata efyo, miongoni mwa muenga ijhema munu jhamummanyilepi.
27 He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
Ojho ndo jha ihida baada jha nene. Nene nilondeka lepi ata kuhobhosya mighojhi jha filatu fya muene.”
28 These things were done in Beth-Naiya across the Yurdinan, where Yukhanan was baptizing.
Mambo agha ghabhombiki okhu Bethania, kwiselya ku Yordani, mahali ambapo Yohana ajhele ibatisya.
29 The next day, he saw Yeshua coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
Ligono lyalafwatili Yohana ambwene Yesu ihida kwa muene akajobha, “Langayi mwanakondoo ghwa K'yara jhaibetakujhitola dhambi jha bhulimwengu!
30 This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
ojho ndo jhanijobheghe habari sya muene, nikajobhili, “Muene jhaibetakuhida kunyuma jha nene ndo mbaha kuliko nene, kwa kujha ajhele kabla jha nene.'
31 I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israyel."
Nikammanyilepi muene, lakini jhabhombiki naha ili kwamba afumulibhwayi ku Israeli, kujha nahidili kubatisya kwa masi.”
32 And Yukhanan testified, saying, "I saw the Rukha descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
Yohana ashuhudili, “Nabhwene Roho iselela kuh'oma kumbinguni mfuano ghwa hua, najhabakili kunani kwa muene.
33 And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Rukha descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Rukha d'Qudsha.'
Nene nammanyilepi lakini muene jhaanitumili ili nibatisiajhi kwa masi anijobhili, 'jhola ambajhe ibetakubhona Roho iselela ni kutama panani pa muene, Ojho ndo ibetakubatisya kwa Roho Mtakatifu.'
34 And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
Nibhuene na nishuhudili kujha ojho ndo Mwana ghwa K'yara.”
35 Again, the next day, Yukhanan was standing with two of his disciples,
Kabhele ligono lya lafwatili Yohana ajhemili pamonga ni bhanafunzi bhamuene bhabhele,
36 and he looked at Yeshua as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
bhambwene Yesu igenda ni Yohana akajobha, “Langayi, Mwana kondoo ghwa K'yara!”
37 And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Yeshua.
Bhanafunzi bhabhele bhampeliki Yohana ijobha haya bhakan'kesya Yesu.
38 And Yeshua turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
Kabhele Yesu ageuki ni kubhabhona bhanafunzi bhala bhabhele bhakan'kesya, na akabhajobhela, “Mwilonda kiki?” Bhakajibu, “Rabbi, (maana jhiake 'mwalimu,' witama ndaku?”
39 He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
Akabhajobhela, “Muhidayi na mulotayi.”Kisha bhakalota ni kulola mahali pa atameghe; bhatamili pamonga naku ligono elu kwakujha jha jhele kama saa kumi ivi.
40 One of the two who heard Yukhanan, and followed him, was Andreus, Shimon Kipha's brother.
Mmonga kati jha bhala bhabhele bhabhamp'eliki Yohana ilongela na kisha kun'kesya Yesu ajhele Andrea, ndongomunu Simoni Petro.
41 He first found his own brother, Shimon, and said to him, "We have found the Meshikha." (which is translated, Anointed One).
Ambwene ndongomunu Simoni ni kun'jobhela, “Tun'kabhili masihi” (ambajho jhitafsiribhwa Kristu).
42 He brought him to Yeshua. Yeshua looked at him, and said, "You are Shimon the son of Yukhanan. You shall be called Kipha" (which is translated, rock).
Andetili kwa Yesu. Yesu akandanga ni kujobha, “Bhebhe ndo Simoni mwana ghwa Yohana” wibetakutibhwa kefa,” (maana jhiake 'Petro').
43 On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galila, and he found Philipus. And Yeshua said to him, "Follow me."
Ligono lya lyafwatili wakati abhokili kulota Galilaya, an'kabhili Filipo ni kun'jobhela, “Nik'esiajhi nene.”
44 Now Philipus was from Beth-Sayada, of the city of Andreus and Kipha.
Filipo ajhele mwenyeji wa Bethsaida, mji wa Andrea ni Petro.
45 Philipus found Nathanayil, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Mushe in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Yeshua of Natsrath, the son of Yauseph."
Filipo an'kabhili Nathanaeli ni kun'jobhela, Tun'kabhili jhola ambajhe Musa abhwesiti kulamba habari sya muene mun sheria sya manabii. Yesu mwana ghwa Yusufu, kuh'omela ku Nazareti.
46 And Nathanayil said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Natsrath?" Philipus said to him, "Come and see."
Nathanaeli akan'jobhela, “Je khenu kinofu kibhwesya kuh'omela Nazareti?” Filipo akan'jobhela, Hidayi na ulolayi.”
47 Yeshua saw Nathanayil coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israyelite in whom there is no deceit."
Yesu akambona Nathanaeli ihida kwa muene ni kujobha, “Langayi, Mwisraeli kweli kweli jhaabelikujha ni udesi mugati mwa muene!”
48 Nathanayil said to him, "How do you know me?" Yeshua answered him, "Before Philipus called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
Nathanaeli akan'jobhela, “Unimanyibhuili nene?” Yesu akan'jibu ni kun'jobhela, “Kabla Filipo akukutilepi bho ujhele pasi pa mtini, nikakubhwene.”
49 Nathanayil answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israyel."
Nathanaeli akajibu, “Rabi bhebhe u Mwana ghwa K'yara! Bhebhe ndo Mfalme ghwa Israeli”!
50 Yeshua answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
Yesu akan'jibu akan'jobhela, Kwa ndabha nikujobhili nikakubhwene pasi pa libehe lya mtini' je ghwiamini? wibetakulola matendo mabhaha kuliko agha.”
51 And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
Yesu akajobha, “Muaminiajhi muaminiajhi nikabhajobhela mwibetakusibhona malaika bhikwela ni kuselela panani pa Mwana ghwa Adamu.”
