John 1
1 In the beginning the Word was; and the Word was with God; and the Word was God.
Sa simula pa lamang ay ang Salita, at ang Salita ay kasama ng Diyos, at ang Salita ay Diyos.
2 He was in the beginning with God;
Itong Salitang ito ay nasa simula pa kasama ng Diyos.
3 through him all things came into being, and nothing came into being apart from him.
Ang lahat nang mga bagay ay nalikha sa pamamagitan niya, at kung wala siya, ay wala kahit isang bagay ang nilikha na nalikha.
4 That which came into being in him was life; and the life was the light of humanity;
Sa kaniya ay buhay, at ang buhay na iyon ay liwanag sa lahat ng sangkatauhan.
5 and the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness never overpowered it.
Ang liwanag ay sumisinag sa kadiliman, at ito ay hindi napawi nang kadiliman.
6 There appeared a man sent from God, whose name was John;
May isang lalaki na isinugo mula sa Diyos, na ang pangalan ay Juan.
7 he came as a witness – to bear witness to the light so that through him everyone might believe.
Dumating siya bilang isang saksi upang magpatotoo tungkol sa liwanag, upang ang lahat ay maaaring maniwala sa pamamagitan niya.
8 He was not the light, but he came to bear witness to the light.
Hindi si Juan ang liwanag, ngunit naparito upang makapagpatotoo siya tungkol sa liwanag.
9 That was the true light which enlightens everyone coming into the world.
Iyon ang tunay na liwanag na dumarating sa mundo at iyon ang nagpapaliwanang sa lahat.
10 He was in the world; and through him the world came into being – yet the world did not know him.
Siya ay nasa mundo, at ang mundo ay nalikha sa pamamagitan niya, at ang mundo ay hindi nakakakilala sa kaniya.
11 He came to his own – yet his own did not receive him.
Dumating siya sa kaniyang sariling kababayan, at hindi siya tinanggap ng kaniyang sariling mga kababayan.
12 But to all who did receive him he gave power to become children of God – to those who believe in his name.
Ngunit sa kasing-dami nang tumanggap sa kaniya, na naniwala sa kaniyang pangalan, sa kanila niya ipinagkaloob ang karapatang maging mga anak ng Diyos,
13 For not to natural conception, nor to human instincts, nor to human will did they owe the new life, but to God.
ipinanganak sila hindi sa pamamagitan nang dugo, ni hindi sa pamamagitan nang kagustuhan ng laman, ni hindi sa pamamagitan nang kagustuhan ng tao, kundi sa pamamagitan ng Diyos.
14 And the Word became human, and lived among us, (We saw his glory – the glory of the Only Son sent from the Father), full of love and truth.
Ngayon ang Salita ay naging laman at namuhay na kasama namin. Nakita namin ang kaniyang kaluwalhatian, kaluwalhatiang katulad ng nasa nag-iisang natatanging katauhan na naparito mula sa Ama, punong-puno ng biyaya at katotohanan.
15 (John bears witness to him; he cried aloud – for it was he who spoke – “He who is coming after me is now before me, for he was ever first”);
Pinatotohanan ni Juan ang tungkol sa kaniya at sumigaw na nagsasabi, “Siyang sinabi ko sa inyo, 'Ang darating kasunod ko ay mas higit sa akin, sapagkat siya ay nauna sa akin.'”
16 out of his fullness we have all received gift after gift of love;
Sapagkat mula sa kaniyang kapuspusan tayong lahat ay nakatanggap ng sunod-sunod na libreng kaloob.
17 for the Law was given through Moses, love and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Sapagkat ang kautusan ay ibinigay sa pamamagitan ni Moises. Biyaya at katotohanan ay dumating sa pamamagitan ni Jesu-Cristo.
18 No one has ever yet seen God; God the only Son, who is ever with the Father – he has revealed him.
Kailanman, walang tao ang nakakita sa Diyos. Ang isa at nag-iisang katauhan, na mismo ay Diyos, na siyang nasa dibdib ng Ama, nagawa niya siyang maipakilala.
19 When the religious authorities in Jerusalem sent some Priests and Levites to ask John – “Who are you?”,
Ngayon ito ang patotoo ni Juan nang ang mga Judio ay nagpadala sa kaniya ng mga pari at mga Levita mula sa Jerusalem para tanungin siyang, “Sino ka?”
20 he told them clearly and simply, “I am not the Christ.”
Malaya niyang inilahad, at hindi ikinaila, ngunit tumugon, “Hindi ako ang Cristo.”
21 “What then?” they asked. “Are you Elijah?” “No,” he said, “I am not.” “Are you ‘the prophet’?” He answered, “No.”
Kaya siya ay tinanong nila, “Ano ka kung gayon? Ikaw ba si Elias?” Sabi niya, “Hindi ako.” Sabi nila, “Ikaw ba ang propeta?” Sumagot siya, “Hindi.”
22 “Who then are you?” they continued. “Tell us so that we have an answer to give to those who have sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
Pagkatapos ay sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Sino ka, upang may maibigay kaming sagot sa mga nagsugo sa amin? Ano ang masasabi mo tungkol sa iyong sarili?”
23 “I,” he answered, “am – ‘The voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness: make a straight road for the Lord’, as the prophet Isaiah said.”
Sinabi niya, “Ako ang boses ng isang sumisigaw sa ilang: 'Gawin ninyong tuwid ang daraanan ng Panginoon,' gaya nang sinabi ni Isaias na propeta.”
24 These men had been sent from the Pharisees;
Ngayong mayroong mga isinugo duon mula sa mga Pariseo. Tinanong nila siya at sinabi sa kaniya,
25 and their next question was, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ or Elijah or ‘the prophet’?”
“Kung ganoon bakit ka nagbabautismo kung hindi ikaw ang Cristo, ni hindi si Elias, ni hindi ang propeta?”
26 John’s answer was – “I baptize with water, but among you stands one whom you do not know;
Tumugon si Juan sa kanila sinasabi, “Nagbabautismo ako ng tubig. Subalit, sa kalagitnaan ninyo ay nakatayo ang isang hindi ninyo nakikilala.
27 he is coming after me, yet I am not worthy even to unfasten his sandal.”
Siya ang darating kasunod ko. Hindi ako karapat-dapat na magtanggal ng tali ng kaniyang sandalyas.”
28 This happened at Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
Ang mga bagay na ito ay nangyari sa Bethania sa kabilang ibayo nang Jordan, kung saan si Juan ay nagbabautismo.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him, and exclaimed, “Here is the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
Sa sumunod na araw nakita ni Juan na paparating si Jesus sa kaniya at sinabi, “Tingnan ninyo, ayun ang kordero ng Diyos na siyang nag-aalis nang mga kasalanan ng mundo!
30 I was talking about him when I said ‘After me there is coming a man who ranks ahead of me, because before I was born he already was.’
Siya ang sinabi ko sa inyo na, 'Ang darating kasunod ko ay mas higit sa akin, sapagkat siya ay nauna sa akin.'
31 I did not know who he was, but I have come baptizing with water to make him known to Israel.”
Hindi ko siya nakilala, ngunit ito ay nangyari upang maihayag siya sa Israel na siyang dahilan na ako ay nagbabautismo ng tubig.”
32 John also said: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven like a dove and rest on him.
Nagpatotoo si Juan, “Nakita ko ang Espiritu na bumababa mula sa langit tulad ng isang kalapati, at ito ay nanatili sa kaniya.
33 I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, he said to me ‘He on whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him – he it is who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
Hindi ko siya nakilala, ngunit ang sabi sa akin ng nagsugo sa akin na magbautismo sa tubig, 'Kung kanino mo makikita ang Espiritu na bumababa at nananatili, siya ang magbabautismo ng Banal na Espiritu.'
34 This I have seen myself, and I have declared my belief that he is the Son of God.”
Pareho kong nakita at napatotohanan na ito ang Anak ng Diyos.
35 The next day, when John was standing with two of his disciples,
Muli, sa sumunod na araw, habang si Juan ay nakatayong kasama ang dalawang alagad
36 he looked at Jesus as he passed and exclaimed, “There is the Lamb of God!”
nakita nila si Jesus na naglalakad sa malapit, at sinabi ni Juan, “Tingnan ninyo, ayun ang Kordero ng Diyos!”
37 The two disciples heard him say this, and followed Jesus.
Narinig ng dalawang alagad na sinabi ni Juan ito, at sila ay sumunod kay Jesus.
38 But Jesus turned around, and saw them following. “What are you looking for?” he asked. “Rabbi,” they answered (or, as we should say, ‘Teacher’), “where are you staying?”
At si Jesus ay lumingon at nakita silang sumusunod at sinabi sa kanila, “Anung nais ninyo?” Sumagot sila, “Rabi (na ang ibig sabihin ay 'Guro'), saan ka nakatira?”
39 “Come, and you will see,” he replied. So they went, and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him. It was then about four in the afternoon.
Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Halikayo at tingnan.” At sila ay pumaroon at nakita kung saan siya nakatira; sila ay tumira kasama niya sa araw na iyon sapagkat noon ay halos mag-aalas kuwatro na.
40 One of the two, who heard what John said and followed Jesus, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
Isa sa dalawang nakarinig na nagsalita si Juan at pagkatapos sumunod kay Jesus ay si Andres na kapatid ni Simon Pedro.
41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (a word which means ‘Christ,’ or ‘Consecrated’.)
Una niyang nakita ang kaniyang sariling kapatid na si Simon at sinabi sa kaniya, “Nakita na namin ang Mesias,” (na sinalin na, 'ang Cristo').
42 Then he brought him to Jesus. Looking straight at him, Jesus said, “You are Simon, the son of John; you will be called Cephas” (which means ‘Peter,’ or ‘Rock’).
Dinala niya siya kay Jesus. Si Jesus ay tumingin sa kaniya at sinabi, “Ikaw si Simon anak ni Juan. Ikaw ay tatawaging Cepas” (na ang ibig sabihin ay 'Pedro').
43 The following day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. He found Philip, and said to him, “Follow me.”
Kinabukasan, nang si Jesus ay nais na umalis para pumunta sa Galilea, nakita niya si Felipe at sinabi sa kaniya, “Sumunod ka sa akin.”
44 Philip was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.
Ngayon si Felipe ay galing sa Bethsaida, ang lungsod nila Andres at Pedro.
45 He found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and of whom the prophets also wrote – Jesus of Nazareth, Joseph’s son!”
Natagpuan ni Felipe si Nathanael at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ang siyang naisulat sa kaustusan ni Moises at ng mga propeta - ay nakita namin, si Jesus na taga-Nazaret na anak ni Jose.”
46 “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” asked Nathanael. “Come and see,” replied Philip.
Sinabi ni Nathanael, “Maaari bang may magandang bagay na magmula sa Nazaret?” Sinabi ni Felipe sa kaniya, “Halika at tingnan mo.”
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!”
Nakita ni Jesus na palapit si Nataniel sa kaniya at sinabi ang tungkol sa kaniya, “Tingnan ninyo, isa ngang tunay na Israelita, na walang panlilinlang.”
48 “How do you know me?” asked Nathanael. “Even before Philip called you,” replied Jesus, “when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Sinabi sa kaniya ni Nataniel, “Papaano mo ako nakikilala?” Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi sa kaniya, “Bago ka tawagin ni Felipe, nang nasa ilalim ka ng puno ng igos, nakita na kita.”
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael exclaimed, “you are the Son of God, you are king of Israel!”
Sumagot si Nathanael, “Rabi, ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos! Ikaw ang Hari ng Israel!”
50 “Do you believe in me,” asked Jesus, “because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than those!
Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi sa kaniya, “Dahil ba sa sinabi ko sa iyo, 'Nakita kita sa ilalim ng puno ng igos', naniniwala ka na? Makakakita ka ng mga bagay na mas higit pa kaysa dito.”
51 In truth I tell you,” he added, “you will all see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
Sinabi ni Jesus, “Totoo, totoo itong sinasabi ko sa iyo, makikita mong magbukas ang mga kalangitan, at ang mga anghel ng Diyos ay umaakyat at bumababa sa kinaroroonan ng Anak ng Tao.”
