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 He was in the beginning with God.
Izee koyro Xoossa achchan dees.
3 All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
Medheteththi wurii izann medhetdes. Medhettdazan izi baynda medhetiday isiinaka dukku.
4 In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
Deyooy ezann deyssu. hana deyooya asas poo7.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
Poo77y dhumaan poo7ses. dhumayy poo7 muleeka xonena.
6 There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
Xoossafe kiitetda Yanissa getettiza isadeey dess.
7 He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
Iza markkatithaan asi wurii amanna malla Po77s markka giddii yidess.
8 He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
Izi poo7o gish markatana yides atiin izi ba hues po7o gidena.
9 The true light that enlightens everyone was 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, but the world did not recognize him.
Qaalayka kase alamen dess. almeykka medhetdday izana. Gido atin alameey iza erribeeyna.
11 He came to his own, and those who were 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 the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
Gido attin iza ekdaytii iza sunesaa amaniddayta isti xossa naytia gidana maata isstass iimdess.
13 who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the 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 lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only 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 testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed 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 For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
Iza kumetha kiyatethan nu wuri keyatetha bolla kiyateth ekkidos.
17 For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Wogay musse baggara immetidas, kiyatethine tumay gidiikoo Yesuss Kirsitosa baggara nusii yidess.
18 No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
Xooss beyedaye oonnkka bawa, gido attin Xossa aawa matan diza xoossa na xoossay issay xalala iza qonccissidess.
19 And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
Ayhudata dannatii Yerusalamappe qeessistane Lewe nayetta Yanssakoo kitidii “ne oonee?” gidi oychchishin,
20 And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Christ."
Yanssay “tani Kiristtosa gidikee” gidi geshshi markkatides attin markkatanas ixxibeyna.
21 And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "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 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?"
Istii qaas “histin ne onee? nuna kitda asas nu yotanamalla ne nena ona gay?” gida.
23 He said, "I am the 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 (Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
parssawistappe kittettda issi issi asati
25 And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, 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 baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
Yanssaykka istasi hzgidass “ta haththn xamaqqays gido atiin inte eroontadey inte giddon eqqides.
27 He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
Tappe guyera yanaysi iza, ta iza ccama qachcho birshanass besizade gidikke.
28 These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Haysi wuri haniday Yanssay xamiqqiza Yordanosse shshafappe he pinththan diza Biitaniyaa getetiza katamana. Biitaniyay
29 The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes 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 of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
Tapee guyerra yanayysi izi tappe kassekka diza gish tappe adhdhess) gada ta intess yotizzay haysichch!
31 I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
Takaa ta bagaraa iza eraabeyke shin gidikooka izi Isra7ele deress qonchnamala ta haththan xxamaqashshe yadiss.”
32 And John testified, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
Kaleththidika Yanissayy hizgi markatidess. “Xiiloo Ayanay woole kafoo milattdii salopee woodhishshinne iza bolla uttshin beyadiss.
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 Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes 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 Chosen One of God."
Taka hessa beyadiss. Hessa gish izi Xoossa na gididaysa ta markatays.”
35 Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
Wontetha galass Yanissay bena kaliza nam7atara heen eqqides.
36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
Yesussay iza achchara adhdhishshn Yanissay beydii “Xoossa dorssay hekkoo haysichch!” gides.
37 And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.
Yanssa kalliza nam7ati hessa siiydii Yesussa kallida.
38 And Jesus 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?"
Istii iza kaliishshn yesussa guye yuuy xellidii “ayy kooyetii?” gidees. Istkka “asstamaare ne dussasoy awaa?” gida.
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.
Izikka ista “ha ydii beyte” gidess. Hessa gish bidii izii awan dizakko be7idane he gllass izara isppe pe7ida. Wodeykka gedee tamuu sateso bidess.
40 One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
Yanissay yotida qaala siydii Yesussa kallida nam7atappe issay Simoona Phixiroossa ishsha Indirassa.
41 He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Christ).
Indirassay koyroo ba ishsha simoonakko bidinne “Xoossi kitida kirstossa nu demidos!” gidess.
42 He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is translated, Peter).
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 was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me."
Wonteththa gallas Yesusay Galilla banass koydees. Piliphoosska demiidi “tana kalla” gidess.
44 Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
Pilphoossaykka Indirasamalane Phixiroossamala Batesaydda kattama asa.
45 Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
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, "Can any good thing come 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 said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
Natina7eley Yesussa beyana yishin yesussay beydi iza “hekko geney bayndda tumu Isra77ele ass!” giidi iza gish yotidess.
48 Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were 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 him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
Natina77eleay “asstammarea! ne Xoossa na ne Israe77ele kawo” gides.
50 Jesus answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do 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 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."
Gujidikka ta intes tumu gays buro sallooy dooyetin Xoossa kiitanchati asa na bolla wdhishininne kezishin inte beyana.
