< John 8 >

1 but Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
Jesu sì lọ sí orí òkè olifi.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
Ó sì tún padà wá sí tẹmpili ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀, gbogbo ènìyàn sì wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀; ó sì jókòó, ó ń kọ́ wọn.
3 And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery; and having set her in the midst,
Àwọn akọ̀wé àti àwọn Farisi sì mú obìnrin kan wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, tí a mú nínú ṣíṣe panṣágà; wọ́n sì mú un dúró láàrín.
4 they say unto him, Master, this woman hath been taken in adultery, in the very act.
Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Olùkọ́, a mú obìnrin yìí nínú ìṣe panṣágà.
5 Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such: what then sayest thou of her?
Ǹjẹ́ nínú òfin, Mose pàṣẹ fún wa láti sọ irú àwọn obìnrin bẹ́ẹ̀ ní òkúta, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ ha ti wí?”
6 And this they said, tempting him, that they might have [whereof] to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
Èyí ni wọ́n wí, láti dán án wò, kí wọn ba à lè rí ẹ̀sùn kan kà sí i lọ́rùn. Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu bẹ̀rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ó sì ń fi ìka rẹ̀ kọ̀wé ní ilẹ̀.
7 But when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
Nígbà tí wọ́n ń bi í léèrè lemọ́lemọ́, ó gbe orí rẹ sókè, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Jẹ́ kí ẹni tí ó wà láìní ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ nínú yín kọ́kọ́ sọ òkúta lù ú.”
8 And again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.
Ó sì tún bẹ̀rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ó ń kọ̀wé ní ilẹ̀.
9 And they, when they heard it, went out one by one, beginning from the eldest, [even] unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman, where she was, in the midst.
Nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́ èyí, wọ́n sì jáde lọ lọ́kọ̀ọ̀kan, bẹ̀rẹ̀ láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn àgbà títí dé àwọn tí ó kẹ́yìn; a sì fi Jesu nìkan sílẹ̀, àti obìnrin náà láàrín, níbi tí ó wà.
10 And Jesus lifted up himself, and said unto her, Woman, where are they? did no man condemn thee?
Jesu sì dìde, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Obìnrin yìí, àwọn olùfisùn rẹ dà? Kò sí ẹnìkan tí ó dá ọ lẹ́bi?”
11 And she said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said, Neither do I condemn thee: go thy way; from henceforth sin no more.]
Ó wí pé, “Kò sí ẹnìkan, Olúwa.” Jesu wí fún un pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi náà kò dá ọ lẹ́bi, máa lọ, láti ìgbà yìí lọ, má dẹ́ṣẹ̀ mọ́.”
12 Again therefore Jesus spake unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Jesu sì tún sọ fún wọn pé, “Èmi ni ìmọ́lẹ̀ ayé, ẹni tí ó bá tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn kì yóò rìn nínú òkùnkùn, ṣùgbọ́n yóò ní ìmọ́lẹ̀ ìyè.”
13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true.
Nítorí náà àwọn Farisi wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ń jẹ́rìí ara rẹ; ẹ̀rí rẹ kì í ṣe òtítọ́.”
14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Even if I bear witness of myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye know not whence I come, or whither I go.
Jesu dáhùn ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Bí mo tilẹ̀ ń jẹ́rìí fún ara mi, òtítọ́ ni ẹ̀rí mi: nítorí tí mo mọ ibi tí mo ti wá, mo sì mọ ibi tí mo ń lọ; ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò lè mọ ibi tí mo ti wá, àti ibi tí mo ń lọ.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Ẹ̀yin ń ṣe ìdájọ́ nípa ti ara; èmi kò ṣe ìdájọ́ ẹnikẹ́ni.
16 Yea and if I judge, my judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
Ṣùgbọ́n bí èmi bá sì ṣe ìdájọ́, òtítọ́ ni, nítorí èmi nìkan kọ́, ṣùgbọ́n èmi àti Baba tí ó rán mi.
17 Yea and in your law it is written, that the witness of two men is true.
A sì kọ ọ́ pẹ̀lú nínú òfin pé, òtítọ́ ni ẹ̀rí ènìyàn méjì.
18 I am he that beareth witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
Èmi ni ẹni tí ń jẹ́rìí ara mi, Baba tí ó rán mi sì ń jẹ́rìí mi.”
19 They said therefore unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me, nor my Father: if ye knew me, ye would know my Father also.
Nítorí náà wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Níbo ni Baba rẹ wà?” Jesu dáhùn pé, “Ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀ mí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò mọ Baba mi, ìbá ṣe pé ẹ̀yin mọ̀ mí, ẹ̀yin ìbá sì ti mọ Baba mi pẹ̀lú.”
20 These words spake he in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come.
Ọ̀rọ̀ wọ̀nyí ni Jesu sọ níbi ìṣúra, bí ó ti ń kọ́ni ní tẹmpili, ẹnikẹ́ni kò sì mú un; nítorí wákàtí rẹ̀ kò tí ì dé.
21 He said therefore again unto them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin: whither I go, ye cannot come.
Nítorí náà ó tún wí fún wọn pé, “Èmi ń lọ, ẹ̀yin yóò sì wá mi, ẹ ó sì kú nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín, ibi tí èmi gbé ń lọ, ẹ̀yin kì yóò lè wá.”
22 The Jews therefore said, Will he kill himself, that he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come?
Nítorí náà àwọn Júù wí pé, “Òun ó ha pa ara rẹ̀ bí? Nítorí tí ó wí pé, ‘Ibi tí èmi gbé ń lọ, ẹ̀yin kì yóò lè wá’?”
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin ti ìsàlẹ̀ wá; èmi ti òkè wá; ẹ̀yin jẹ́ ti ayé yìí; èmi kì í ṣe ti ayé yìí.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for except ye believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.
Nítorí náà ni mo ṣe wí fún yín pé, ẹ ó kú nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín, nítorí bí kò ṣe pé ẹ bá gbàgbọ́ pé èmi ni, ẹ ó kú nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín.”
25 They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.
Nítorí náà wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Ta ni ìwọ jẹ́?” Jesu sì wí fún un pé, “Èmi ni èyí tí mo ti wí fún yín ní àtètèkọ́ṣe.
26 I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.
Mo ní ohun púpọ̀ láti sọ, àti láti ṣe ìdájọ́ nípa yín, ṣùgbọ́n olóòtítọ́ ni ẹni tí ó rán mi, ohun tí èmi sì ti gbọ́ láti ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ wá, wọ̀nyí ni èmi ń sọ fún aráyé.”
27 They perceived not that he spake to them of the Father.
Kò yé wọn pé ti Baba ni ó ń sọ fún wọn.
28 Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things.
Lẹ́yìn náà Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Nígbà tí ẹ mọ̀ pé, nígbà tí ẹ bá gbé Ọmọ Ènìyàn sókè, nígbà náà ni ẹ ó mọ̀ pé èmi ni àti pé èmi kò dá ohunkóhun ṣe fún ara mi, ṣùgbọ́n bí Baba ti kọ́ mi, èmí ń sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí.
29 And he that sent me is with me; he hath not left me alone; for I do always the things that are pleasing to him.
Ẹni tí ó rán mí sì ń bẹ pẹ̀lú mi, kò fi mí sílẹ̀ ní èmi nìkan; nítorí tí èmi ń ṣe ohun tí ó wù ú nígbà gbogbo.”
30 As he spake these things, many believed on him.
Bí ó ti ń sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn gbà á gbọ́.
31 Jesus therefore said to those Jews which had believed him, If ye abide in my word, [then] are ye truly my disciples;
Nítorí náà Jesu wí fún àwọn Júù tí ó gbà á gbọ́, pé, “Bí ẹ bá tẹ̀síwájú nínú ọ̀rọ̀ mi ẹ ó jẹ́ ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn mi nítòótọ́.
32 and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Ẹ ó sì mọ òtítọ́, òtítọ́ yóò sì sọ yín di òmìnira.”
33 They answered unto him, We be Abraham’s seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
Wọ́n dá a lóhùn pé, “Irú-ọmọ Abrahamu ni àwa jẹ́, àwa kò sì ṣe ẹrú fún ẹnikẹ́ni rí láé; ìwọ ha ṣe wí pé, ‘Ẹ ó di òmìnira’?”
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.
Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀, ẹrú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ni.
35 And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
Ẹrú kì í sì í gbé ilé títí láé, ọmọ ní ń gbé ilé títí láé. (aiōn g165)
36 If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Nítorí náà, bí Ọmọ bá sọ yín di òmìnira ẹ ó di òmìnira nítòótọ́.
37 I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; yet ye seek to kill me, because my word hath not free course in you.
Mo mọ̀ pé irú-ọmọ Abrahamu ni ẹ̀yin jẹ́; ṣùgbọ́n ẹ ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa mí nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ mi kò rí ààyè nínú yín. Jesu sọ ọ̀rọ̀-ìjìnlẹ̀ nípa ara rẹ̀.
38 I speak the things which I have seen with [my] Father: and ye also do the things which ye heard from [your] father.
Ohun tí èmi ti rí lọ́dọ̀ Baba ni mo sọ, ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú sì ń ṣe èyí tí ẹ̀yin ti gbọ́ láti ọ̀dọ̀ baba yín.”
39 They answered and said unto him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
Wọ́n dáhùn, wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Abrahamu ni baba wa!” Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin ìbá ṣe iṣẹ́ Abrahamu.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I heard from God: this did not Abraham.
Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí, ẹ̀yin ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa mí, ẹni tí ó sọ òtítọ́ fún yín, èyí tí mo ti gbọ́ lọ́dọ̀ Ọlọ́run, Abrahamu kò ṣe èyí.
41 Ye do the works of your father. They said unto him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.
Ẹ̀yin ń ṣe iṣẹ́ baba yín.” Nígbà náà ni wọ́n wí fún un pé, “a kò bí wa nípa panṣágà, a ní Baba kan, èyí sì ni Ọlọ́run.”
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I came forth and am come from God; for neither have I come of myself, but he sent me.
Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé Ọlọ́run ni Baba yín, ẹ̀yin ìbá fẹ́ràn mi, nítorí tí èmi ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run jáde, mo sì wá; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni èmi kò sì wá fún ara mi, ṣùgbọ́n òun ni ó rán mi.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? [Even] because ye cannot hear my word.
Èéṣe tí èdè mi kò fi yé yín? Nítorí ẹ kò lè gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi.
44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father it is your will to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
Ti èṣù baba yin ni ẹ̀yin jẹ́, ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ baba yín ni ẹ sì ń fẹ́ ṣe. Apànìyàn ni òun jẹ́ láti àtètèkọ́ṣe, kò sì dúró nínú òtítọ́; nítorí tí kò sí òtítọ́ nínú rẹ̀. Nígbà tí ó bá ń ṣèké, nínú ohun tirẹ̀ ni ó ń sọ nítorí èké ni, àti baba èké.
45 But because I say the truth, ye believe me not.
Ṣùgbọ́n nítorí tí èmi ń sọ òtítọ́ fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò sì gbà mí gbọ́.
46 Which of you convicteth me of sin? If I say truth, why do ye not believe me?
Ta ni nínú yín tí ó ti dá mi lẹ́bi ẹ̀ṣẹ̀? Bí mo bá ń ṣọ òtítọ́, èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin kò fi gbà mí gbọ́?
47 He that is of God heareth the words of God: for this cause ye hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.
Ẹni tí ń ṣe ti Ọlọ́run, a máa gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run, nítorí èyí ni ẹ̀yin kò ṣe gbọ́, nítorí ẹ̀yin kì í ṣe ti Ọlọ́run.”
48 The Jews answered and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
Àwọn Júù dáhùn wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa kò wí nítòótọ́ pé, ará Samaria ni ìwọ jẹ́, àti pé ìwọ ní ẹ̀mí èṣù?”
49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Èmi kò ní ẹ̀mí èṣù, ṣùgbọ́n èmi ń bu ọlá fún Baba mi, ẹ̀yin kò sì bu ọlá fún mi.
50 But I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Èmi kò wá ògo ara mi, ẹnìkan ń bẹ tí ó ń wá a tí yóò sì ṣe ìdájọ́.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my word, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, bí ẹnìkan bá pa ọ̀rọ̀ mi mọ́, kì yóò rí ikú láéláé.” (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews said unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my word, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
Àwọn Júù wí fún un pé, “Nígbà yìí ni àwa mọ̀ pé ìwọ ní ẹ̀mí èṣù. Abrahamu kú, àti àwọn wòlíì; ìwọ sì wí pé, ‘Bí ẹnìkan bá pa ọ̀rọ̀ mi mọ́, kì yóò tọ́ ikú wò láéláé.’ (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
Ìwọ ha pọ̀ ju Abrahamu Baba wa lọ, ẹni tí ó kú? Àwọn wòlíì sì kú, ta ni ìwọ ń fi ara rẹ pè?”
54 Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God;
Jesu dáhùn wí pé, “Bí mo bá yin ara mi lógo, ògo mi kò jẹ́ nǹkan, Baba mi ni ẹni tí ń yìn mí lógo, ẹni tí ẹ̀yin wí pé, Ọlọ́run yín ní i ṣe.
55 and ye have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be like unto you, a liar: but I know him, and keep his word.
Ẹ kò sì mọ̀ ọ́n, ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ̀ ọ́n, bí mo bá sì wí pé, èmi kò mọ̀ ọ́n, èmi yóò di èké gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀yin, ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ̀ ọ́n, mo sì pa ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ mọ́.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; and he saw it, and was glad.
Abrahamu baba yín yọ̀ láti rí ọjọ́ mi, ó sì rí i, ó sì yọ̀.”
57 The Jews therefore said unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Nítorí náà, àwọn Júù wí fún un pé, “Ọdún rẹ kò ì tó àádọ́ta, ìwọ sì ti rí Abrahamu?”
58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Jesu sì wí fún wọn pé, “Lóòótọ́ lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, kí Abrahamu tó wà, èmi ti wa.”
59 They took up stones therefore to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
Nítorí náà wọ́n gbé òkúta láti sọ lù ú, ṣùgbọ́n Jesu fi ara rẹ̀ pamọ́, ó sì jáde kúrò ní tẹmpili.
