Yochanan 6
1 After these things, Jesus went away to the other side of the sea of Galilee, which is also called the Sea of Tiberias.
Le esiawo megbe la, Yesu tso Galilea ƒu (si woyɔna hã be Tiberias Ƒu la) yi egodo.
2 A large crowd followed him, because they saw the signs which he did on those who were sick.
Ameha gã aɖe nɔ eyome, elabena wokpɔ nukunu siwo wòwɔ heda gbe le dɔnɔwo ŋu.
3 Jesus went up into the mountain, and he sat there with his disciples.
Yesu lia togbɛ aɖe, eye eya kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo nɔ anyi ɖe afi ma.
4 Now the Passover, the Jewish festival, was near.
Yudatɔwo ƒe Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la hã tu aƒe.
5 Jesus therefore lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a large crowd was coming to him, said to Philip, "Where are we to buy bread, that these may eat?"
Esi Yesu fɔ ta dzi hekpɔ ameha gã aɖe wogbɔna va egbɔ la, ebia Filipo be, “Afi ka míakpɔ nuɖuɖu le ana ameha gã sia woaɖu?”
6 This he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
Yesu bia nya sia be yeatsɔ ado Filipo ƒe xɔse akpɔ, elabena eya ŋutɔ nya nu si wɔ ge wòala.
7 Philip answered him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that everyone of them may receive a little."
Filipo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ɣleti ade ƒe fetu gɔ̃ hã mate ŋu aƒle nuɖuɖu wòade na ameha sia o!”
8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,
Eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dometɔ ɖeka, Andrea, Simɔn Petro nɔvi, gblɔ nɛ be,
9 "There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these among so many?"
“Ŋutsuvi aɖe le afi sia si si lubolo sue atɔ̃ kple tɔmelã meme eve le, gake nu ka esia ate ŋu awɔ le ameha gã sia ŋuti?”
10 Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
Yesu gblɔ na nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Mina ame sia ame nanɔ anyi.” Gbe sɔ gbɔ ɖe teƒe sia. Ale ame siwo ƒe xexlẽme anɔ akpe atɔ̃ la nɔ anyi ɖe gbeawo dzi.
11 Jesus took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down; likewise also of the fish as much as they desired.
Yesu tsɔ aboloawo, eye wòdo gbe ɖa heda akpe ɖe wo ta. Emegbe la, etsɔe na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be woama na ameawo. Edo gbe ɖa ɖe tɔmelã meme eveawo hã ta, eye wòtsɔe na ameawo.
12 When they were filled, he said to his disciples, "Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost."
Esi ame sia ame ɖu nu ɖi ƒo nyuie vɔ la, Yesu gblɔ na nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Miƒo abolo wuwlui siwo katã susɔ la nu ƒu be womagaɖi vlo o.”
13 So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.
Ale woƒo abolo wuwluiawo katã nu ƒu, eye wòyɔ kusi wuieve sɔŋ.
14 When therefore the people saw the sign which he did, they said, "This is truly the Prophet who comes into the world."
Esi ameawo kpɔ nukunu gã si Yesu wɔ la, wodo ɣli gblɔ be, “Le nyateƒe me la, ame siae nye Nyagblɔɖila si míele mɔ kpɔm na le xexe sia me.”
15 Jesus therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force, to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
Yesu kpɔe dze sii be ameawo nɔ didim be yewoalé ye aɖo fiae sesẽtɔe, eya ta ewɔ dzaa galia togbɛ la, eye wòdzo le wo gbɔ.
16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
Le fiẽ me la, nusrɔ̃lawo yi ƒuta ɖanɔ elalam le afi ma.
17 and they entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.
Zã do vɔ keŋ, gake Yesu medo ta ɖa o, eya ta nusrɔ̃lawo ge ɖe ʋu aɖe me, eye wokui ɖo ta Kapernaum.
18 The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
Ya sesẽ aɖe de asi ƒoƒo me, eye ƒu la dze agbo.
19 When therefore they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
Esi woku ʋu la abe agbadroƒe etɔ̃ alo ene ko ene la, wokpɔ Yesu wònɔ tetem ɖe ʋu la ŋuti, enɔ ƒu la dzi zɔm, eye vɔvɔ̃ ɖo wo,
20 But he said to them, "It is I. Do not be afraid."
ke egblɔ na wo be, “Nyee, migavɔ̃ o.”
21 They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
Wodi be yewoakɔe ade ʋu la me, gake enumake la, ʋu la de tɔkɔ, afi si yim wonɔ la.
22 On the next day, the crowd that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except one, and that Jesus had not entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.
Esi ŋu ke la, ameha si nɔ tsitre ɖe ƒu la ƒe go kemɛ dzi la de dzesii be ʋu ɖeka koe nɔ afi ma. Wokpɔ hã be, Yesu meɖo ʋu la kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo o, ke boŋ woawo ɖeɖe koe yi.
23 Other boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
Tete ʋu bubu aɖewo tso Tiberia va ɖo afi si ameawo ɖu abolo si Aƒetɔ la yra kple akpedada le.
24 When the crowd therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.
Esi ameawo kpɔ be Yesu alo eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo menɔ afi ma o la, woɖo ʋuawo heyi Kapernaum be yewoaɖadi Yesu.
25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"
Esi woɖo Kapernaum la, wokpɔ Yesu, eye wobiae be, “Nufiala, ɣe ka ɣi nèva ɖo afi sia?”
26 Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves, and were filled.
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Le nyateƒe me la, miele diyem, menye ɖe esi miekpɔ nukunuwo ta o, ke boŋ le nuɖuɖu si mena mi etsɔ la ta.
27 Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For God the Father has sealed him." (aiōnios g166)
Migawɔ dɔ ɖe nuɖuɖu si gblẽna la ta o, ke boŋ ɖe nuɖuɖu si kplɔa ame yina ɖe agbe mavɔ me si Nye, Amegbetɔ Vi la mana mi la ta. Eya dzie Mawu Fofo la da asi ɖo.” (aiōnios g166)
28 They said therefore to him, "What must we do, that we may work the works of God?"
Ameawo biae be, “Nu ka míawɔ be míawɔ dɔ siwo Mawu di?”
29 Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."
Yesu ɖo eŋu be, “Enye Mawu ƒe didi be miaxɔ ame si wòɖo ɖa la dzi ase.”
30 They said therefore to him, "What then do you do for a sign, that we may see, and believe you? What work do you do?
Tete ameawo biae be, “Nukunu ka nàwɔ míakpɔ be míaxɔ dziwò ase? Nu ka nàwɔ?
31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, 'He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.'"
Mía fofowo ɖu mana le gbea dzi abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi ene be, ‘Ena abolo wo tso dziƒo be woaɖu.’”
32 Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread out of heaven, but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven.
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Nyateƒe gblɔm mele na mi be, menye Mosee na abolo tso dziƒo mi o, ke boŋ Fofonyee.
33 For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world."
Abolo si Mawu na lae nye ame si tso dziƒo va, eye wòna agbe xexea me.”
34 They said therefore to him, "Lord, always give us this bread."
Ameawo gblɔ be, “Aƒetɔ, tso fifia heyi la, na abolo sia mí.”
35 Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not be hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
Yesu gblɔ be, “Nyee nye agbebolo la. Ame si ava gbɔnye la, dɔ magawui akpɔ o, eye ame si xɔ dzinye se la, tsikɔ magawui gbeɖe o.
36 But I told you that you have seen me, and yet you do not believe.
Gake abe ale si megblɔ do ŋgɔe ene la, miekpɔm, gake miexɔ dzinye se o.
37 All those whom the Father gives me will come to me. Him who comes to me I will in no way throw out.
Ame siwo katã Fofo la tsɔ nam la, woava gbɔnye, eye nyemagbe wo xɔxɔ gbeɖe o.
38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
Elabena nyemetso dziƒo va be mawɔ nye lɔlɔ̃nu o, ke boŋ be mawɔ ame si dɔm ɖa la ƒe lɔlɔ̃nu.
39 This is the will of him who sent me, that of all he has given to me I should lose nothing, but should raise him up at the last day.
Eye esiae nye ame si dɔm la ƒe lɔlɔ̃nu be magabu ame siwo wòtsɔ nam la dometɔ aɖeke o, ke boŋ be mana woatsi tsitre le nuwuwuŋkeke la dzi.
40 This is the will of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son, and believes in him, should have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day." (aiōnios g166)
Elabena Fofonye ƒe lɔlɔ̃nue nye be ame sia ame si kpɔa Via dzi, eye wòxɔ edzi se la, akpɔ agbe mavɔ, eye mafɔe ɖe tsitre le nuwuwuŋkeke la dzi.” (aiōnios g166)
41 The Jewish people therefore murmured concerning him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down out of heaven."
Azɔ Yudatɔwo de asi liʋĩliʋĩlilĩ me le eŋu, le esi wògblɔ be yee nye abolo si tso dziƒo va la ta.
42 They said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then does he say, 'I have come down out of heaven?'"
Wogblɔ be, “Nu ka! Menye ame siae nye Yesu, Yosef ƒe vi la oa? Míenya fofoa kple dadaa ɖe! Nu ka ta wòle gbɔgblɔm na mí fifia be, ‘Metso dziƒo va ɖo?’”
43 Therefore Jesus answered them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Migalĩ liʋĩliʋĩ be megblɔ nya sia o.
44 No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up in the last day.
Ame aɖeke mate ŋu ava gbɔnye o, negbe Fofo si dɔm ɖa la hee ɖe ŋunye, eye le nuwuwuŋkeke la dzi la, mana ame siawo natsi tsitre.
45 It is written in the Prophets, 'And they will all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to me.
Abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖe Nyagblɔɖilawo ƒe agbalẽ me ene la, ‘Mawu afia nu wo katã.’ Ame siwo katã ɖo to Fofo la, eye wosrɔ̃ nyateƒe la le egbɔ la vaa gbɔnye.
46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God. He has seen the Father.
Ame aɖeke mekpɔ Mawu kpɔ o, negbe ame si tso Mawu gbɔ la koe kpɔ Fofo la.
“Mele egblɔm na mi nyateƒetɔe be, ame si xɔ dzinye se la, agbe mavɔ le esi! (aiōnios g166)
48 I am the bread of life.
Nyee nye agbebolo la!
49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.
Togbɔ be mia fofowo ɖu mana si tso dziƒo hã la, woku.
50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die.
Ke esiae nye abolo si tso dziƒo va, esi ame aɖu, eye maku o.
51 I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh." (aiōn g165)
Nyee nye agbebolo si tso dziƒo va. Ne ame aɖe ɖu abolo sia la, anɔ agbe tegbee. Abolo siae nye nye ŋutilã si matsɔ ana ɖe xexea me ƒe agbe ta.” (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews therefore argued with one another, saying, "How can this one give us flesh to eat?"
Azɔ ʋiʋli gaɖo Yudatɔwo dome ɖe nya si Yesu gblɔ la ta. Wobia wo nɔewo be, “Aleke ŋutsu sia atsɔ eƒe ŋutilã na mí be míaɖu?”
53 Jesus therefore said to them, "Truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life in yourselves.
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Nyateƒe gblɔm mele na mi be, ne ame aɖe meɖu Amegbetɔ Vi la ƒe ŋutilã, eye wòno eƒe ʋu o la, agbe manɔ eme o.
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
Ame si ɖu nye ŋutilã, eye wòno nye ʋu la, agbe mavɔ le esi, eye mafɔe ɖe tsitre le nuwuwuŋkeke la dzi. (aiōnios g166)
55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.
Elabena nye ŋutilã nye nuɖuɖu vavã, eye nye ʋu nye nunono vavã.
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood lives in me, and I in him.
Ame si ɖua nye ŋutilã, eye wònoa nye ʋu la nye ame si le menye, eye nye hã mele eme.
57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father; so he who feeds on me, he will also live because of me.
Abe ale si Fofo gbagbe la dɔm ɖa, eye mele agbe le Fofo la ta ene la, nenema ke ame si ɖua nye ŋutilã la anɔ agbe, elabena mena agbe wo.
58 This is the bread which came down out of heaven—not as the fathers ate, and died. He who eats this bread will live forever." (aiōn g165)
Nyee nye abolo tso dziƒo va. Mia fofowo ɖu mana, eye woku, ke ame si aɖu abolo sia ƒe ɖe la, anɔ agbe tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me.” (aiōn g165)
59 He said these things in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
Yesu gblɔ nya siawo esime wònɔ nu fiam le Yudatɔwo ƒe ƒuƒoƒe le Kapernaum.
60 Therefore many of his disciples, when they heard this, said, "This is a hard saying. Who can listen to it?"
Esi Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo se nya sia la, wo dometɔ geɖewo gblɔ be, “Nufiafia sia sesẽ. Ame kae ate ŋu awɔ nu siawo?”
61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at this, said to them, "Does this cause you to stumble?
Yesu de dzesii be yeƒe nusrɔ̃lawo le liʋĩliʋĩ lĩm, eya ta egblɔ na wo be, “Ɖe nye nyawo ɖia mia nua?
62 Then what if you would see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
Ekema miekpɔ Amegbetɔ Vi la wòyina ɖe dziƒo, afi si wòtso va ɖe!
63 It is the Spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and are life.
Gbɔgbɔ la naa agbe; wɔna aɖeke mele ŋutilã ya ŋu o. Nya siwo megblɔ na mi la nye Gbɔgbɔ kple agbe.
64 But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was who would betray him.
Gake mia dometɔ aɖewo mexɔ dzinye se o.” Ke Yesu nya ame siwo mexɔ edzi se o, kple ame si le ede ge asi la tso gɔmedzedzea me ke.
65 He said, "For this cause have I said to you that no one can come to me, unless it is given to him by the Father."
Yesu gagblɔ be, “Esia ta megblɔ na mi be ame aɖeke mate ŋu ava gbɔnye o, negbe Fofo la ŋutɔe hee ɖe ŋunye.”
66 At this, many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
Tso esia dzi la, eƒe nusrɔ̃la geɖewo trɔ dzo le egbɔ, eye womegadzea eyome o.
67 Jesus said therefore to the twelve, "You do not also want to go away, do you?"
Yesu bia nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo be, “Miawo hã, miedi be yewoadzoa?”
68 Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Simɔn Petro ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, ame ka gbɔ míadzo ayi? Agbe mavɔ nyawo le asiwò. (aiōnios g166)
69 We have come to believe and know that you are the Holy One of God."
Míexɔe se, eye mienyae be wòe nye Mawu ƒe Vi Kɔkɔe la.”
70 Jesus answered them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?"
Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Mi ame wuievee metia, gake mia dometɔ ɖeka nye Abosam!”
71 Now he spoke of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, for it was he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.
(Yesu gblɔ nya sia tso Yuda, Simɔn Iskariɔt ƒe vi, ame si nye ame wuieveawo dometɔ ɖeka, ame si afia eyomemɔ emegbe la ŋu.)
