John 8
1 but, Jesus, went unto the Mount of Olives.
Jesu wakaya kuchilundu cha Oliva.
2 And, early in the morning, again, came he into the temple, and all the people were coming unto him; and, sitting down, he began to teach them.
Chifumofumo wakaya ku tempele lubo, eelyo bantu boonse bakasika; wakakkala aansi akubayiisya.
3 And the Scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman, caught, in adultery; and, setting her in the midst,
Balembi bamulawu abaFalisi bakeeta mukayintu wakajatwa nkalookuchita bumambe. Bakamubika aakati.
4 they say unto him—Teacher! this woman, hath been caught in the very act of committing adultery!
Mpawo bakati kulinguwe, “Muyiisi, ooyu mwanakaziwajatwa kalikuchita bumambe.
5 Now, in the law, Moses, [unto us] gave command to stone, such as these. What, then, dost, thou, say?
Lino mumulawu, Mozesi wakatulayilila kuti bantu baliboobu tubatulule mabwe; iwe utyeni aatala anguwe?”
6 [This, however, they were saying, by way of testing him, —that they might have whereof to accuse him.] But, Jesus, stooping down, with his finger, wrote in the ground.
Bakaamba eezi kuchitila kuti bamupe mulandu anzizyo, pesi Jesu wakakotama walemba aansi amunwe wakwe.
7 When, however, they still continued questioning him, he lifted himself up and said [unto them]—He of you, that is without sin, let him first cast at her a stone;
Nibakiinkilila aanembo akumubuzya mibuzyo, wakanyampuka akubaambila kuti, “Ooyo utakwe chibi aakati kenu, ngabe mutanzi kutulula mwanakazi ooyu ibbwe.”
8 and, again stooping down, he wrote in the ground.
Wakakotama aansi lubo, akulemba aanyika amunwe wakwe.
9 And, they who heard, began to go out, one by one, beginning from the elders, —and he was left, alone; the woman also, being, in the midst.
Nibakamvwa eezi bakeenda umwi awumwi, kutalika aamupati. Kumamanino Jesu wakasyaala aalike, nkali aamwanakazi ngubakabikide aakati.
10 And lifting himself up, Jesus said unto her—Woman, where are they? Hath, no one, condemned thee?
Jesu wakanyampuka akumwaambila kuti, “Yoo mwanakazi, mbali basikukupa mulandu? Takwe muntu wajana mulandu na mulinduwe?”
11 And, she, said—No one, Sir! And Jesus said—Neither do, I, condemn thee, —be going thy way: Henceforth, be sinning, no more.
Wakati, “Takwe, nikuba womwe Mwaami.” Jesu wakati, “Ambebo nsikupi mulandu. Koya alimwi utakabisyi limbi.”]
12 Again, therefore, unto them, spake Jesus, saying—I, am the light of the world: He that followeth me, shall in nowise walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Alimwi Jesu wakaambuula aabo nkati, “Ndili mumuni wanyika; ooyo unditobela takoyoyenda mumudima pesi uyooba aamumuni wabuumi.”
13 The Pharisees, therefore, said unto him—Thou, concerning thyself, bearest witness: thy witness, is not true.
Ba Falisi bakati kulinguwe, “Ulipeda bukamboni nomwini, bukamboni bwako tabusinizizye pe.”
14 Jesus answered, and said unto them—Even though, I, bear witness concerning myself, true, is my witness, because I know whence I came, and whither I go; but, ye, know not whence I come, and whither I go.
Jesu wakabasandula akwaamba kuti kulimbabo, “Nekuba kuti ndipa bukamboni bwangu ndemwini, bukamboni bwangu bulisinizizye. Ndilikwizi nkundakazwa ankwenjobuya.
15 Ye, according to the flesh, do judge: I, am judging no one.
Mubeteka chanyama; Ime nsibeteki muntu pe.
16 And, even if, I, am judging, my judging, is, genuine, —because, alone, am I not, but, I, and the Father who sent me;
Nikuba kuti ndabeteka, kubeteka kwangu kulisinizizye nkaambo nsili aandike pe, pesi ndili aaTaata wakandituma.
17 And, in your own law, it is written, that, two men’s witness, is, true:
Iyii, alimwi mumulawu wenu kulilembedwe kuti bukamboni bwabantu babili bulisinizizye.
18 I, am the one bearing witness of myself, and the Father who sent me is bearing witness concerning me.
Ndili ooyo uulungulula bukamboni aatala alwangu, eelyo Taata wakandituma upeda bukamboni aatala andime.”
19 They were saying unto him, therefore—Where, is thy father? Jesus answered—Neither, me, do ye know, nor yet my Father: If, me, ye had known, my Father also, had ye known.
Bakati kulinguwe, “Ulikuli wuso?” Jesu wakasandula, “Takwe ngomuzi imebo na Taata; kansinga mwalindiz, mwalikunomuziba Taata alakwe.”
20 These sayings, spake he in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and yet, no one, seized him, because, not yet, had come his hour.
Aaya majwi wakaamba muchibambalilo nkali kuyiisya mutempele pesi takwe muntu wakamusunga nkaambo chiindi chakwe techakalinaakkwana pe.
21 He said unto them again, therefore—I, go, and ye shall seek me, —and yet, in your sin, shall ye die: Whither, I, go, ye, cannot come.
Aawo wakabaambila lubo kuti, “Ndiyobwiinka, muyondiyanduula eelyo muyofwa muzibi zyanu. Ooko nkweya, tamukonzyi kusika pe.”
22 The Jews, therefore, were saying—Can it be that he will kill himself, that he saith, Whither, I, go, ye, cannot come?
Ba Juda bakati, “Mpo ulalijaya na? Nchenchicho na mpo nchati, 'Nkweya tamuyosika?”
23 And he was saying unto them—Ye, are, of the realms below, I, am, of the realms above: Ye, are, of this world, I, am not of this world.
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Muli baansi; Imebo ndiwakujulu. Muli banyika eeyi; Mebo nsili wenyika eeyi pe.
24 Therefore said I unto you, Ye shall die in your sins: For, if ye believe not that, I, am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Akaako ndakamwaambila kuti muyoofwa muzibi zyabo. Ado do mane musyome kuti NDIME, muyoofwa muzibi zyenu.”
25 They were saying unto him, therefore—Who art, thou? Jesus said unto them—First and foremost, even what I speak unto you.
Bakati kulinguwe, ikuti kuliboobo, “Nduweni?” Jesu wakabaambila kuti, “Nzindamwaambila kuzwa kumatalikilo.
26 Many things, have I, concerning you, to speak, and to judge; but, he who sent me, is, true, and, I, what things I heard from him, the same, speak I unto the world.
Ndili aazintu zyiingi zyakwaamba azyakubeteka aatala andinywe. Nikubaboobo, ooyo wakandituma ulisinizizye; mpawo zintu nzyemvwa kuzwa kulinguwe, nzyezintu nzyewamba kunyika.”
27 They noted not that, as touching the Father, unto them, he was speaking.
Tensi bakamvwisisisya pe kuti wakalikwaambula aatala aTaata.
28 Jesus, therefore, said—Whensoever ye shall lift up the Son of Man, then, shall ye know, that, I, am he, and, of myself, am doing, nothing; but, just as the Father taught me, the same things, am I speaking.
Jesu wakati, “Aawo mwayoonyampula Mwana waMuntu, mpempawo mpomuyooziba kuti NDIME, akuti nsichiti chintu alwangu. Mbubo Taata mbwakandiyiisya me, mbubo bewamba zintu eezi.
29 And, he that sent me, is, with me: He hath not left me, alone. Because, I, the things that please him, ever do.
Ooyo wakandituma uli aandime, mpawo tandisiide andiike pe, nkaambo ndichita zintu zimukonda chiindi choonse.
30 As he was speaking these things, many, believed on him.
Nkachaambula zintu eezi Jesu, bantu biingi bakasyoma mulinguwe.
31 Jesus was saying, therefore, unto the Jews who had believed on him—If, ye, abide in my word, of a truth, my disciples, ye are;
Jesu wakati kuma Juda ibakali bamusyoma, “Na mwakkalilila mujwi lyangu, muyooba basikwiiya bangu basinizizye,
32 And ye shall know the truth, and, the truth, shall make you free.
alimwi muyoziba kasimpe, eelyo kasimpe kayoomwaangununa.”
33 They made answer unto him—Seed of Abraham, are we, and, unto no one, have been brought into bondage, at any time: How sayest, thou, Free, shall ye be made?
Bakamusandula, “Tulizyalane lya Abbulahamu mpawo tatunaaba bazike bamuntu pe; waambilaaaloi kuti, 'Muyowangununwa'?”
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you: Every one who committeth sin, is, a slave, [of sin: ]
Jesu wakabasandula, “Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila kuti, ooyo woonse uchita chibi muzike wachibi.
Muzike takkalilili mun'anda kwalyoonse; mwana ulakkalilila chalyoonse. (aiōn g165)
36 If then, the Son, shall make you free, really free, shall ye be.
Akaako, na Mwana wakwaangununa, ulaangunuka cha nchobeni.
37 I know that ye are, seed of Abraham; but ye are seeking to kill me, because, my word, findeth no place in you.
Ndilizizi kuti muli zyalane lya Abbulahamu; muyandula kundijaya nkaambo ijwi lyangu talikwe busena mulindinywe.
38 What things, I, have seen with the Father, I am speaking; Ye, also, then, what things ye have heard from your father, are doing.—
Ndiwamba nzindakabona kuli Taata, alimwi andinywe muchite nzimwakamvwa kuli wuso wanu.”
39 They answered and said unto him—Our father, is, Abraham. Jesus saith unto them—If, children of Abraham, ye are, the works of Abraham, are ye doing.
Bakamusandula alimwi bakati kulinguwe, “Taata wesu ngu Abbulahamu.” Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Na mwali bana ba Abbulahamu, nimunga muchita milimu ya Abbulahamu.
40 But, now, ye are seeking, to kill me, —A man who, the truth, unto you, hath spoken, which I have heard from God: this, Abraham, did not.
Pesi, lino muyanduula kundijaya, muntu wamwaambila kasimpe nkendakamvwa kuli Leza. Abbulahamu takwe nakachita eechi.
41 Ye, are doing the works of your father. They said unto him—We, of fornication, were not born: One father, have we—God.
Muchita milimu yawuso wenu.” Bakati kulinguwe, “Tetwakazyalilwa mubwamu pe; tuli aaTaata omwe: Leza.”
42 Jesus said unto them—If, God, had been your father, ye had been loving me, for, I, from God, came forth, and am here; for, not even of myself, have I come, but, he, sent me forth.
Jesu wakabaambila wakati, “Kaansinga Leza ngu Wuso wenu, mwalikunondiyanda, nkaambo ndakazwa kuli Leza mpawo ndili aano; nkaambo nsilizidilide pe ndemwini, pesi wakandituma.
43 Wherefore, is it, that, my speech, ye do not understand? because ye cannot hear my word.
Nkaambonzi nimutamvwisisisyi majwi aangu? Kuli oobu nkaambo tamukonzyi kumvwa majwi aangu.
44 Ye, are, of your father—the adversary, and, the covetings of your father, ye choose to be doing. He, was, a murderer, from the beginning, and, in the truth, he stood not; because truth is not in him: Whensoever he speaketh falsehood, of his own, he speaketh; because, false, he is, and, the father of it.
Muli bawuso wenu, dyabbulosi, alimwi mukanza kuchita ziyandisyo zyawuso. Wakali mujayi kuzwa kumatangunino mpawo tayiimvwi muchisinizyo nkaambo takwe kusinizya mulinguwe. Aawo nawamba zyakubeja, uwamba kazizwa mubube bwakwe mwini nkaambo mubeji alimwi ngowisi wabubeji.
45 But, as for me, because, the truth, I speak, ye do not believe me.
Eelyo, nkaambo ndiwamba lusinizyo, tamundisyomi pe.
46 Which of you convicteth me of sin? If, truth, I speak, wherefore, do, ye, not believe me?
Ngwani aakati kenu uundipa mulandu wachibi? Kuti ndaamba lusinizyo, nkambooyi nimutandisyomi?
47 He that is of God, heareth, the sayings of God; therefore, do, ye, not hear, because, of God, ye are not.
Muntu waLeza woonse ulaamvwa majwi aa Leza; tamwaamvwi nkaambo tamuli ba Leza.”
48 The Jews answered, and said unto him—Do, we, not, well, say: Thou, art, a Samaritan, and hast a demon?
Ba Juda bakamusandula alimwi bakati kulinguwe, “Nchoonzyo tatwaambi kuti uli mu Samaliya na akuti uli aadayimona?”
49 Jesus answered—I, have not, a demon, but honour my Father: and, ye, dishonour me.
Jesu wakasandula, “Nsikwe dayimona pe, pesi ndilemya Taata wangu, alimwi inywe mulanduubawulusya.
50 But, I, seek not my glory: There is one who seeketh and judgeth.
Nsilanguuli bulemu bwangu ndemwini; kuli uumwi uuyandula akubeteka.
51 Verily, verily, I say unto you: If anyone shall keep, my word, death, shall he not see, unto times age-abiding. (aiōn g165)
Chobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila, na umwi wabamba ijwi lyangu, takoyoobona lufu.” (aiōn g165)
52 The Jews said unto him—Now, we know that, a demon, thou hast: —Abraham, died, and, the prophets, and yet, thou, sayest: If anyone shall keep, my word, in nowise shall he taste of death, unto times age-abiding. (aiōn g165)
Ma Juda bakati kulinguwe, “Lino twaziba kuti uli aadayimona. Abbulahamu abasinsimi bakafwa; pesi wamba kuti, 'Na umwi wabamba ijwi lyangu, takoyoolabila lufu.' (aiōn g165)
53 Surely, thou, art not, greater, than our father Abraham, —who, indeed, died? and, the prophets, died: —Whom, makest thou thyself?
Toli mupati pe kwiinda taata Abbulahamu wakafwa, ulimupati na? Basinsimi abalabo bakafwa. Ulichita ani?”
54 Jesus answered—If, I, glorify myself, my glory, is nothing: It is, my Father, that glorifieth me, —of whom, ye, say—He is, your God!
Jesu wakasandula, “Kuti nkelipa bulemu ndemwini, bulemu bwangu mbwabuyo; ngu Taata undilemya - ooyo ngumuti ngu Leza wanu.
55 And yet ye have not come to know him; but, I, do know him: If I say, I know him not, I shall be like you—false; but I know him, and, his word, am I keeping.
Tamunaamuziba pe, pesi ndilimwizi. Kuti ndati, 'Nsimwizi, ndilaba mbuli ndinyw, mubeji. Nikuba boobo, ndimwizi alimwi ndilabamba ijwi lyakwe.
56 Abraham, your father, exulted that he should see my day; and he saw, and rejoiced.
Wuso wenu Abbulahamu wakabotelwa kubamba izuba lyangu; waklibona alimwi wakabotelwa.”
57 The Jews, therefore, said unto him—Fifty years old, not yet art thou, and, Abraham, hast thou seen?
BamaJuda bakati kulinguwe, “Tonaakuba aaminyaka ili makkumi musanu pe, mpawo wakamubona Abbulahamu?”
58 Jesus said unto them—Verily, verily, I say unto you: Before, Abraham, came into existence, I, am.
Jesu wakati kulimbabo, “Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila Abbulahamu nkatanaaba, NDIME.”
59 They took up stones, therefore, that they might cast at him; but, Jesus, was hidden, and went forth out of the temple.
Mpawo bakabweza mabwe kuti bamutulule, pesi Jesu wakayuba akuzwa aanze kwe tempele.
