John 5
1 After these things there was the feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
Oluvannyuma Yesu n’addayo e Yerusaalemi abeewo ku emu ku mbaga z’Abayudaaya.
2 Now there is at Jerusalem, by the sheep-gate, a pool, which is called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches.
Munda mu Yerusaalemi, okumpi n’Omulyango gw’Endiga waliwo ekidiba ekiyitibwa Besusayida, mu Lwebbulaniya, ekyazimbibwako ebigango bitaano okukyetooloola.
3 In these were lying a multitude of diseased persons, blind, lame, withered.
Mu bigango ebyo mwagalamirangamu abalwadde bangi nnyo: abalema, abazibe b’amaaso, n’abakoozimbye.
Kubanga bwe waayitangawo ekiseera malayika wa Mukama n’ajja n’atabula amazzi ago, era omuntu eyasookanga okukka mu kidiba ng’amazzi gaakatabulwa, ng’awonyezebwa.
5 And a certain man was there, who had had his infirmity thirty-eight years.
Waaliwo omusajja eyali yaakalwalira emyaka amakumi asatu mu munaana.
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?
Yesu bwe yamulaba n’amanya nga bw’amaze ebbanga eddene nga mulwadde, n’amubuuza nti, “Oyagala okuwonyezebwa?”
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.
Omusajja omulwadde n’amuddamu nti, “Ssebo sirina muntu ayinza kunnyamba okunsuula mu kidiba ng’amazzi gaakatabulwa. Buli lwe ngezaako okukkamu we ntukirayo ng’omulala yansoose dda.”
8 Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Situka ozingeko omukeeka gwo otambule.”
9 And immediately the man was made well, and took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the sabbath.
Amangwago omusajja n’awonyezebwa. N’azingako omukeeka gwe ne yeetambulira. Olunaku olwo lwali lwa Ssabbiiti.
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.
Abayudaaya kyebaava bagamba omusajja awonyezebbwa nti, “Toteekwa kwetikka mukeeka gwo ku Ssabbiiti, oba omenye etteeka lya Ssabbiiti.”
11 He answered them, He that made me well, the same said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk. T
Ye n’addamu nti, “Omuntu amponyezza y’aŋŋambye nti, ‘Situlawo omukeeka gwo otambule.’”
12 hey asked him, Who is the man that said to thee, Take up, and walk?
Ne bamubuuza nti, “Omuntu oyo ye ani eyakugambye okusitula omukeeka gwo otambule?”
13 But the diseased man knew not who it was; for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being a crowd in the place.
Kyokka omusajja eyawonyezebwa yali tamumanyi, kubanga Yesu yali abulidde mu bantu abangi abaali mu kifo ekyo.
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.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Yesu n’amulaba mu Yeekaalu, n’amugamba nti, “Kaakano oli mulamu, naye toddangamu okwonoona, akabi akasingawo kaleme okukutuukako.”
15 The man went away, and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.
Omuntu oyo n’agenda n’ategeeza Abayudaaya nti Yesu ye yamuwonya.
16 And on this account the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did these things on the sabbath.
Okuva olwo Abayudaaya ne batandika okuyigganya Yesu, kubanga yakolanga ebintu ebifaanana ng’ekyo ku Ssabbiiti.
17 But he answered them, My Father is working up to this time, and I work.
Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Kitange bulijjo akola, nange nteekwa okukola.”
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.
Abayudaaya kyebaava beeyongera okusala amagezi okumutta, kubanga teyakoma ku kya kumenya mateeka ga Ssabbiiti kyokka, naye yeeyita Omwana wa Katonda, ne yeefuula eyenkanaankana ne Katonda.
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;
Awo Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, Omwana taliiko ky’akola ku bubwe, wabula ekyo ky’alaba Kitaawe ng’akola. Kubanga ye by’akola n’Omwana by’akola.
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.
Kubanga Kitaawe w’Omwana ayagala Omwana we era amulaga ky’akola, era Omwana ajja kukola ebyamagero bingi ebyewuunyisa okusinga na bino.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and giveth them life, so the Son also giveth life to whom he will.
Kubanga nga Kitaawe w’Omwana bw’azuukiza abafu, bw’atyo n’Omwana awa obulamu abo baayagala.
22 For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgment to the Son;
Era Kitaawe w’Omwana talina n’omu gw’asalira musango, naye obuyinza obw’okusala emisango gyonna yabuwa Omwana we,
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.
abantu bonna balyoke bassengamu Omwana ekitiibwa nga bwe bassa mu Kitaawe ekitiibwa. Atassaamu Mwana kitiibwa, ne Kitaawe eyamutuma tamussaamu kitiibwa.
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)
“Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, Awulira ebigambo byange, n’akkiriza eyantuma, aba n’obulamu obutaggwaawo, era talisingibwa musango, kubanga aliba avudde mu kuzikirira ng’atuuse mu bulamu. (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.
Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, Ekiseera kijja, era kituuse, abafu lwe baliwulira eddoboozi ly’Omwana wa Katonda, era n’abaliwulira baliba balamu.
26 For as the Father hath life in himself, so did he give to the Son also to have life in himself.
Kubanga nga Kitaawe w’Omwana bw’alina obulamu mu ye, bw’atyo bwe yawa Omwana okuba n’obulamu mu ye,
27 And he gave him authority to execute judgment, because he is a son of man.
era yamuwa obuyinza okusalira abantu emisango, kubanga ye Mwana w’Omuntu.
28 Marvel not at this; for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the tombs will hear his voice,
“Ekyo tekibeewuunyisa, kubanga ekiseera kijja abafu abali mu ntaana lwe baliwulira eddoboozi lye
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.
ne bavaamu kubanga be baakola ebintu ebirungi, era balifuna obulamu obutaggwaawo, naye abo abaakolanga ebibi balizuukira ne babonerezebwa.
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.
Kyokka Nze siyinza kukola kintu kyonna ku bwange. Kitange nga bw’aŋŋamba bwe nkola, era n’omusango gwe nsala gwa nsonga kubanga sinoonya bye njagala nze, wabula eyantuma by’ayagala.
31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
Singa nneeyogerako nzekka, bye nneyogerako tebiba bya mazima.
32 There is another who beareth witness of me; and ye know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.
Waliwo ategeeza gwe ndi, era mmanyi nga bya njogerako bya mazima.
33 Ye have sent to John, and he hath borne witness to the truth.
“Mmwe mwatuma ababaka eri Yokaana, era ayogedde eby’amazima.
34 But the testimony which I receive is not from man; but these things I say, that ye may be saved.
Ebigambo ebinkakasa tebiva mu muntu, naye ebyo mbyogera mulyoke mulokolebwe.
35 He was the burning and shining lamp: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
Oyo ye yali ettaala eyayaka okubaleetera ekitangaala, ne musalawo mubeere mu kitangaala ekyo akaseera katono.
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.
“Naye nnina ebinkakasa okukira ebyo ebya Yokaana, bye byamagero bye nkola, Kitange bye yampa, era bikakasa nti Kitange ye yantuma
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.
ne Kitange yennyini eyantuma akakasa ebinkwatako. Temuwuliranga ku ddoboozi lye wadde okulaba ekifaananyi kye.
38 And ye have not his word abiding in you; for whom he sent, him ye believe not.
N’ekigambo kye tekiri mu mmwe, kubanga temukkiriza oyo gwe yatuma.
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)
Munoonya mu Byawandiikibwa kubanga mulowooza nti muyinza okubifuniramu obulamu obutaggwaawo. Kyokka Ebyawandiikibwa ebyo bye binjulira. (aiōnios g166)
40 and ye are not willing to come to me, that ye may have life.
Naye temwagala kujja gye ndi mulyoke mufune obulamu obutaggwaawo.
41 I receive not honor from men;
“Sinoonya kusiimibwa bantu.
42 but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
Naye mmwe mbamanyi temuliimu kwagala kwa Katonda.
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.
Nzize mu linnya lya Kitange ne mutannyaniriza. Omulala bw’anajja ku bubwe oyo mujja kumwaniriza.
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?
Kale muyinza mutya okukkiriza nga munoonya kusiimibwa bantu bannammwe, so nga temunoonya kusiimibwa Katonda oyo Omu yekka?
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.
“Naye temulowooza nti ndibawawaabira eri Kitange. Abawawaabira ye Musa, mmwe gwe mulinamu essuubi.
46 For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.
Singa Musa mumukkiriza, nange mwandinzikirizza, kubanga yampandiikako.
47 But if ye do not believe his writings, how will ye believe my words?
Kale obanga temukkiriza bye yawandiika, munakkiriza mutya ebigambo byange?”
