John 5
1 After these things there was the feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, otu mmemme ndị Juu ruru, Jisọs agaa Jerusalem.
2 Now there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches.
Ma otu ọdọ mmiri nta dị nʼime Jerusalem nʼakụkụ Ọnụ ụzọ ama Atụrụ. Aha ọdọ mmiri ahụ nʼasụsụ Hibru bụ Betsaida, nke nwere mgbe ọnụ ụzọ ise.
3 In these were lying a multitude of diseased persons, blind, lame, withered.
Nʼime ya ka igwe ndị ahụ na-esighị ike na-edina; ndị ìsì, ndị ngwụrọ, na ndị akụkụ ahụ ha kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, ha na-eche mgbe mmiri ahụ ga-enugharị.
Nʼihi na mmụọ ozi Onyenwe anyị na-agbadata site na mgbe ruo na mgbe gbarụọ mmiri ahụ. Onye ọrịa ọbụla buru ụzọ daba nʼime mmiri ahụ ma a gbarụọ ya, ka a na-agwọ ihe ọbụla bụ ọrịa ya.
5 And a certain man was there, who had had his infirmity thirty-eight years.
Otu nwoke nọ nʼebe ahụ bụ onye nọrọla nʼọrịa iri afọ atọ na asatọ.
6 Jesus saw this man lying there, and knowing that he had been for a long time diseased, saith to him, Dost thou wish to be made well?
Mgbe Jisọs hụrụ ya, matakwa na ọ nọọla nʼọnọdụ a ogologo oge, ọ jụrụ ya sị, “Ị chọrọ ka a gwọọ gị ọrịa?”
7 The diseased man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool; but while I am coming, another goeth down before me.
Onye ọrịa ahụ zara, “Nna m ukwu, enweghị m onye ọbụla ga-enyere m aka kuba m nʼime ọdọ mmiri a ma a gbarụọ ya, mgbe o bụla m chọrọ ka m danye, onye ọzọ na-eburu m ụzọ danye.”
8 Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
Jisọs gwara ya, “Bilie, chilie ute gị jegharịa.”
9 And immediately the man was made well, and took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the sabbath.
Nʼotu oge ahụ, ahụ dịrị nwoke ahụ mma, ọ chịlịri ute ya, malite ijegharị. Ihe a mere nʼụbọchị izuike.
10 The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath; and it is not lawful for thee to take up the bed.
Ma ndị Juu gwara nwoke ahụ a gwọrọ ọrịa, “Taa bụ ụbọchị izuike, o megidere iwu na ị ga-ebu ute gị.”
11 He answered them, He that made me well, the same said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk. T
Ma ọ zaghachiri ha, “Nwoke ahụ mere ka ahụ dị m mma sịrị m, ‘Chilie ute gị laa.’”
12 hey asked him, Who is the man that said to thee, Take up, and walk?
Ha jụrụ ya, “Onye bụ onye ahụ gwara gị ka ị chilie ya laa?”
13 But the diseased man knew not who it was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being a crowd in the place.
Ma nwoke ahụ a gwọrọ amataghị onye ọ bụ nʼihi na Jisọs zoro onwe ya banye nʼetiti igwe mmadụ.
14 Afterwards Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art made well; sin no more, lest something worse befall thee.
Emesịa, Jisọs hụrụ ya nʼime ụlọnsọ ukwu sị ya, “Lee, e mela ka ahụ dị gị mma, emehiekwala ọzọ ka nke dị njọ karịa nke a hapụ ịbịakwasị gị.”
15 The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
Nwoke a siri nʼebe ahụ pụọ gaa gwa ndị Juu na ọ bụ Jisọs gwọrọ ya.
16 And on this account the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.
Ya mere, nʼihi na Jisọs na-eme ihe ndị a nʼụbọchị izuike, ndị Juu malitere isogbu ya.
17 But he answered them, My Father is working up to this time, and I work.
Jisọs sịrị ha, “Nna m na-arụ ọrụ mgbe niile ruo ugbu a, mụ onwe m kwa, ana m arụ ọrụ.”
18 On this account the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath, but also said that God was his own Father, making himself equal with God.
Nʼihi nke a, ndị Juu chọsịrị ike igbu ya. Ọ bụghị naanị na o mebiri ụbọchị izuike, kama ọ na-akpọkwa Chineke Nna ya, sitekwa otu a na-eme ka ya na Chineke hara.
19 Then answered Jesus and said to them, Truly, truly do I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing; for whatever He doeth, these things the Son also doeth in like manner;
Jisọs zara ha sị, “Nʼezie, nʼezie agwa m unu, o nweghị ihe ọbụla Ọkpara pụrụ ime nʼonwe ya; naanị ihe o nwere ike ime bụ ihe ọ hụrụ Nna ya na-eme, nʼihi na ihe ọbụla Nna ahụ na-eme ka Ọkpara ya na-emekwa.
20 for the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things which he himself doeth; and greater works than these will he show him, so that ye will wonder.
Nʼihi na Nna ahụ hụrụ Ọkpara ya nʼanya ma na-egosikwa ya ihe niile ọ na-eme. Nʼezie ọ ga-agbagwoju unu anya nʼihi na ọ ga-egosi ya ihe karịrị ndị a.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth them life, so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.
Nʼihi na dị ka nna ahụ si akpọte ndị nwụrụ anwụ na-enyekwa ha ndụ, otu ahụ ka Ọkpara ya si enye onye ọbụla ọ masịrị ya ndụ.
22 For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgment to the Son;
Nna anaghị ekpe onye ọbụla ikpe, kama o nyefere ikpe niile nʼaka Ọkpara.
23 that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son, honoreth not the Father, who sent him.
Ka mmadụ niile nye Ọkpara ahụ nsọpụrụ dị ka ha na-asọpụrụ Nna ahụ. Onye ọbụla nke na-adịghị asọpụrụ Ọkpara ahụ adịghị asọpụrụ Nna nke zitere ya.
24 Truly, truly do I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and cometh not into condemnation, but hath passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
“Nʼezie, nʼezie agwa m unu, onye ọbụla na-anụ okwu m ma kwerekwa nʼonye zitere m nwere ndụ ebighị ebi, a gaghị amakwa ya ikpe, ọ gafeela site nʼọnwụ banye na ndụ. (aiōnios g166)
25 Truly, truly do I say to you, The hour is coming and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear will live.
Nʼezie, nʼezie agwa m unu, oge na-abịa, ọ bịakwala ugbu a mgbe ndị nwụrụ anwụ ga-anụ olu Ọkpara Chineke, ndị ahụ nụrụ ya ga-adịkwa ndụ.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so did he give to the Son also to have life in himself.
Dị ka Nna ahụ nwere ndụ nʼime onwe ya, otu a ka o nyekwara Ọkpara ahụ ike inwe ndụ nʼime onwe ya.
27 And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.
O nyekwala ya ikike ikpe ikpe nʼihi na ọ bụ Nwa nke Mmadụ.
28 Marvel not at this; for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
“Ka nke a hapụ iju unu anya, nʼihi na oge na-abịa, mgbe ndị niile nọ nʼili ha ga-anụ olu ya
29 and will come forth, they that have done good, to a resurrection of life; they that have done evil, to a resurrection of condemnation.
ma pụta, ndị mere ihe dị mma ga-ebili dịrị ndụ. Ma ndị mere ihe ọjọọ ga-ebili bụrụ ndị a ga-ama ikpe.
30 I can of myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
Enweghị m ike ime ihe ọbụla nʼonwe m, ikpe m na-ekpe bụ naanị dị ka m nụrụ, ikpe m bụkwa nke ziri ezi, nʼihi na anaghị m eme ihe ga-amasị m, kama ọ bụ ihe ga-amasị onye ahụ zitere m.
31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
“Ọ bụrụ na m na-agba ama banyere onwe m, ama m abụghị eziokwu.
32 There is another who beareth witness of me; and ye know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
Enwere m onye ọzọ na-agbara m ama, amatakwara m na ama ya banyere m bụ eziokwu.
33 Ye have sent to John, and he hath borne witness to the truth.
“Unu zigaara Jọn ndị ozi, ọ gbakwaala ama maka eziokwu ahụ.
34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man; but these things I say, that ye may be saved.
Ọ bụghị na m na-anabata ama nke mmadụ, kama a na m ekwu ya ka enwe ike ịzọpụta unu.
35 He was the burning and shining lamp: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
Ọ bụ oriọna nke na-enwu na-amụkekwa, unu họrọkwara ịṅụrị ọṅụ nʼìhè ya nʼoge nta.
36 But the testimony which I have, is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father hath given me to perform, the works themselves which I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
“Ma e nwere m ama dị ukwuu karịa nke Jọn, nʼihi na ọrụ ahụ ya bụ Nna nyere m ka m rụchapụ, bụkwa nke m na-arụ, na-agbara m ama na ọ bụ Nna ahụ zitere m.
37 And the Father who sent me, he hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
Ya bụ Nna ahụ zitere m na-agbakwa ama nʼonwe ya banyere m. Unu anụbeghị olu maọbụ hụ ụdịdị ya.
38 And ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he sent, him ye believe not.
Okwu ya anọkwaghị nʼime unu nʼihi na unu ekweghị nʼonye o zitere.
39 Ye search the Scriptures, because ye yourselves think that in them ye have everlasting life; and it is they which testify of me; (aiōnios g166)
Unu na-enyocha akwụkwọ nsọ nʼihi na unu chere na unu ga-esite na ha nwee ndụ ebighị ebi maọbụ ha na-agba ama banyere m. (aiōnios g166)
40 and ye are not willing to come to me, that ye may have life.
Ma unu jụrụ ịbịakwute m ka unu nwee ndụ.
41 I receive not honor from men;
“Anaghị m anabata otuto nke ụmụ mmadụ.
42 but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
Ma amatara m na unu enweghị ịhụnanya Chineke nʼobi unu.
43 I have come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive.
Abịala m nʼaha Nna m ma unu anabataghị m. Ma ọ bụrụ na onye ọzọ abịa nʼaha nke onwe ya, unu ga-anabata ya.
44 How can ye believe while ye receive honor from one another, and seek not the honor that is from him who alone is God?
Olee otu unu ga-esi kwere ebe unu na-anara otuto site nʼaka ibe unu, ma unu adịghị achọ otuto nke si nʼaka onye naanị ya bụ Chineke?
45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye have placed your hope.
“Unu echela na m ga-ebo unu ebubo nʼihu Nna ahụ. Onye ga-ebo unu ebubo bụ Mosis, bụ onye unu tụkwasịrị obi na ya.
46 For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.
Ọ bụrụ na unu kwenyeere Mosis, unu gakwara ekwere na m, nʼihi na o dere banyere m.
47 But if ye do not believe his writings, how will ye believe my words?
Ma ebe unu na-ekweghị nʼihe o dere, olee otu unu ga-esi kwere nʼihe m kwuru?”
