< John 12 >

1 Six days before the Passover [celebration started], Jesus arrived in Bethany [village, along with us]. That was where Lazarus lived. He was the man Jesus [previously] caused to be alive again after he died.
ଏତ୍‌କି ବିତ୍‌ରେ ଜିସୁ ନିସ୍‌ତାର୍‌ ପରବ୍‌ ଅଇବାକେ ଚ ଦିନର୍‌ ଆଗ୍‌ତୁ ବେତ୍‌ନିଆ ଗାଲା । ତେଇ ଲାଜାରର୍‌ ଗର୍‌ । ଜିସୁ ଏ ଲାଜାର୍‌କେସେ ମଲାଟାନେଅନି ଉଟାଇରଇଲା ।
2 There they gave a dinner to [honor] Jesus. Martha served the meal. [Her younger brother], Lazarus, was among the people who were eating with Jesus.
ସେ ରାତି ତେଇ ଜିସୁର୍‌ପାଇ ଗଟେକ୍‌ ବଜି ଟିକ୍‌ କଲାଇ । ଆରି ମାର୍‌ତା ସେମନ୍‌କେ କୁଆପୁଚା କରାଇତେରଇଲା । ଲାଜାର୍‌ ଜିସୁର୍‌ ସଙ୍ଗ୍‌ ବଜିତେଇ ବସି ରଇଲା ।
3 Then Mary took [a bottle] of expensive perfume [called] nard and poured it on Jesus’ feet [to honor him]. Then she wiped his feet with her hair. The whole house was filled with the [beautiful] smell of the perfume.
ସେଡ୍‌କିବେଲେ ମରିୟମ୍‌ ଜଟାମାଉଁସ୍‌ ନାଉଁର୍‌ ବେସି ଦାମେ ତିଆର୍‌ ଅଇଲା ଅଦ୍‌ ଲିଟର୍‌ ବାସ୍‌ନା ଚିକନ୍‌ ଆନି ଜିସୁର୍‌ ପାଦେ ରକଇ ନିଜର୍‌ ଚେଣ୍ଡିସଙ୍ଗ୍‌ ପୁଚିଦେଲା । ଆରି ସେ ଚିକନର୍‌ ସୁନ୍ଦର୍‌ ବାସ୍‌ନା ଗୁଲାଇ ଗର୍‌ ଗମ୍‌କିଗାଲା ।
4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]) objected. He was the one who later enabled Jesus’ enemies to seize him.
ଜିସୁର୍‌ ସିସ୍‌ମନର୍‌ ବିତ୍‌ରେ ଅନି ଇସ୍‌କାରିୟତ୍‌ ଜିଉଦା ନାଉଁର୍‌ ସିସ୍‌, ଜେ କି ଜିସୁକେ ସତ୍‌ରୁମନ୍‍କେ ସର୍‌ପିଦେବାକେ ଜାଇତେ ରଇଲା, ସେ କଇଲା,
5 He said, “(We should have sold this perfume and given [the money] to poor people!/Why did [we] not sell this perfume and give [the money for it] to the poor people?) [RHQ] We could have gotten 300 days’ wages for it!”
“ଏ ବାସ୍‌ନା ଚିକନ୍‌ ତିନ୍‌ ସଅ ରୁପା ଟାଙ୍ଗାକେ ବିକିକରି ସେ ଡାବୁ ଗରିବ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌କେ ଦେଲେ ନଇତା କି?”
6 He said that, not because he cared about the poor people, but instead, because he was a thief. He was the one who kept the bag [of funds that people gave to help Jesus and us his disciples], and he often stole some of the money that was {that [people]} put into it.
ଇସ୍‌କାରିୟତ୍‌ ଜିଉଦା ଗରିବ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନର୍‌ପାଇ ଚିନ୍ତା କର୍‌ତେରଇଲାଜେ ଏନ୍ତି କଇଲା ବଲି ନାଇ, ମାତର୍‌ ସେ ଗଟେକ୍‌ ଚର୍‌ । ତାର୍‌ ଦାଇତେ ରଇଲା ଟାଙ୍ଗାମୁନା ଟାନେଅନି ସେ ନିଜର୍‌ ପାଇ କେତେକ୍‌ କେତେକ୍‌ ଲୁଚାଇ ନେଇତେରଇଲା ।
7 Then Jesus said, “Do not bother her! [She bought this perfume] in order to save it until the day when they will bury me [after I die].
ମାତର୍‌ ଜିସୁ କଇଲା, “ତାକେ କାଇଟା ବଲି କୁଆ ନାଇ, ତାର୍‌ଟାନେ ଜେତ୍‌କି ଆଚେ, ସେଟା ଜେନ୍ତିକି ମର୍‌ ସମାଦି ଦିନର୍‌ପାଇ ସଙ୍ଗଇଆଚେ ।
8 There will always be poor people among you, [so you can help them whenever you want to]. But I will not be with you much longer, [so it is good that she showed right now how much she appreciates me].”
ଗରିବ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ତା ସବୁବେଲେ ତମର୍‌ ସଙ୍ଗ୍‌ ରଇଲାଇନି, ମାତର୍‌ ମୁଇ ସବୁବେଲେ ନ ରଇ ।”
9 A large crowd of Jews heard [people say] that Jesus was there [in Bethany]. So they came, not only [to see] Jesus but also to see Lazarus, the man whom he had caused to become alive again after he died.
ଏତ୍‌କିବିତ୍‌ରେ ଜିସୁ ବେତ୍‌ନିଆଇ ଆଚେ ବଲି ଜାନିକରି ବେସି ଜିଉଦି ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ଆଇଲାଇ । ଅବ୍‌କା ଜିସୁକେ ସେ ଦେକ୍‌ବାକେ ନାଇ, ମାତର୍‌ ଜନ୍‌ ଲାଜାର୍‌କେ ଜିସୁ ମଲାଟାନେଅନି ଉଟାଇରଇଲା ତାକେ ମିସା ଦେକ୍‌ବାର୍‌ ଆସିରଇଲାଇ ।
10 So the chief priests decided to kill Lazarus also,
୧୦ମାତର୍‌ ମୁକିଅ ପୁଜାରିମନ୍‌ ଲାଜାର୍‌କେ ମିସା ମରାଇବାକେ ଜଜ୍‌ନା କଲାଇ ।
11 because many of the Jews were [deserting them and] going to Jesus and believing in him because of [Jesus causing] Lazarus [to be alive again].
୧୧କାଇକେବଇଲେ ତାର୍‌ଲାଗି ବଲି କେତେକ୍‌ କେତେକ୍‌ ଜିଉଦି ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ନେତାମନ୍‌କେ ଚାଡି ଜିସୁକେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କର୍‌ତେରଇଲାଇ ।
12 The next day the huge crowd of people that had come [to Jerusalem] for the [Passover] celebration heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
୧୨ତାର୍‌ ଆର୍‌କର୍‌ ଦିନେ ରକିଆପାଇବା ପରବେ ଆସିରଇବା ବେସି ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ଜିସୁ ଜିରୁସାଲାମ୍‌ ଆଇଲାନି ବଲି ସୁନ୍‌ଲାଇ ।
13 So they [cut] branches from some palm trees and took the branches out [of the city] to [wave them when they] met him. Some of them were shouting things like, “Hooray!” “May the Lord [God] bless the one who is coming with his authority [MTY]!” Some other people were shouting, “[May God bless] the King of Israel!”
୧୩ସେଟାର୍‌ ପାଇ ସେମନ୍‌ କଜ୍‌ରିଡାଲ୍‌ ଦାରି ଜିସୁକେ ବେଟ୍‌ଅଇବାର୍‌ ଗାଲାଇ, ଆରି ଆଉଲିଅଇକରି କଇଲାଇ, “ଅସାନା, ଜେ ମାପ୍‌ରୁର୍‌ ନାଉଁଦାରି ଆଇଲାନି ତାର୍‌ ମଙ୍ଗଲ୍‌ ଅ, ପର୍‌ମେସର୍‌ ତାକେ ଆସିର୍‌ବାଦ୍‌ କର । ସେ ଇସ୍‌ରାଏଲର୍‌ ରାଜା ଡାକ୍‌ପୁଟା ପାଅ ।”
14 When Jesus [came near to Jerusalem], he got a young donkey and sat on it [as he rode into the city]. By doing this, [he fulfilled] what had been written {what [a prophet] had written} [in Scripture],
୧୪ଆରି ଜିସୁ ଗଟେକ୍‌ ଗଦ ପିଲାର୍‌ ଉପ୍‌ରେ ବସି ଆଇତେ ରଇଲା । ଜେନ୍ତିକି ସାସ୍‌ତରେ ଲେକାଅଇଲା ଏ ବବିସତ୍‌ କାତା ସିଦ୍‌ ଅଇଲା ।
15 You people of Jerusalem, do not be afraid! Look! Your king is coming! He is riding on a donkey’s colt!
୧୫“ଏ ସିୟନ୍‌ ନଅରର୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌, ତମେ ଡରାନାଇ ଦେକା ତମର୍‌ ରାଜା ଗଟେକ୍‌ ଗଦ ପିଲାର୍‌ ଉପ୍‌ରେ ବସି ଆଇଲାନି ।”
16 At first [we] disciples did not understand those things. But after Jesus had returned to heaven, we realized that those things had been written {that [a prophet] had written those things} about him, and that [by] doing those things for him [the people had fulfilled what the prophet prophesied].
୧୬ପର୍‌ତୁମ୍‌ ପର୍‌ତୁମ୍‌ ଜିସୁର୍‌ ସିସ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ଏ ବିସଇ ବୁଜି ନ ରଇଲାଇ । ମାତର୍‌ ଜିସୁ ଜେଡେବେଲା ମଲାଟାନେଅନି ଉଟ୍‌ଲା ପଚେ ଏ ସବୁଜାକ ଲେକା ଏତାଇଲାଇଜେ, ସାସ୍‌ତରେ ତାର୍‌ ବିସଇସେ ଲେକା ଅଇରଇଲା । ଆରି ସେମନ୍‌ ତାର୍‌ ପାଇ ସବୁ କାମ୍‌ କରିରଇଲାଇ ।
17 The crowd that was with him continued to tell other people that he called Lazarus to come out of the tomb, [and that Lazarus had then become alive again].
୧୭ଜିସୁ ଲାଜାର୍‌କେ ମଲାଟାନେଅନି ଉଟାଇକରି ସମାଦିଅନି ବାରଇବାକେ କଇଲାବେଲେ ଜନ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ଜିସୁର୍‌ ସଙ୍ଗ୍‌ ରଇଲାଇ, ସେମନ୍‌ ସେ ଗଟ୍‍ନା ବିସଇର୍‌ ସାକି ଦେବାର୍‌ ଦାର୍‌ଲାଇ ।
18 Because of that, many people, because they heard [others say] that he had performed this miracle, went to meet him.
୧୮ସେଟାର୍‌ପାଇ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ତାକେ ବେଟ୍‌ଅଇବାକେ ଜାଇରଇଲାଇ । କାଇକେବଇଲେ ସେ ଆକା ଏ କାବା ଅଇବା କାମ୍‌ମନ୍‌ କଲାନି ବଲି ସେମନ୍‌ ସୁନିରଇଲାଇ ।
19 So the Pharisees said to each other, “It is obvious that we are making no progress [in trying to stop him! It looks like] [HYP] everyone [MTY] is becoming his disciple!”
୧୯ତେଇ ପାରୁସିମନ୍‌ ତାକର୍‌ ତାକର୍‌ ବିତ୍‌ରେ କୁଆବଲା ଅଇଲାଇ, “ଦେକ୍‌ଲାସ୍‌ନି କାଇକି, ଆମେ ଚେସ୍‌ଟା କଲାଟା ଗଟେକ୍‌ ମିସା ଅଏନାଇ, ଦେକାନି ଗୁଲାଇ ଦୁନିଆଜାକ ତାର୍‌ ପଚେ ଗାଲାନି ।”
20 Among those who went up [to Jerusalem] to worship [God] during the [Passover] celebration were some Greeks.
୨୦ନିସ୍‌ତାର୍‌ ପରବ୍‌ କର୍‌ବାକେ ଆସିରଇବା ଲକ୍‌ମନର୍‌ ବିତ୍‌ରେ ଗିରିକ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ମିସା କେତେଲକ୍‌ ରଇଲାଇ ।
21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida [town] in Galilee [province]. They [wanted him] to do something for them. They said, “Sir, we would like to talk with Jesus.”
୨୧ସେମନ୍‌ ପିଲିପର୍‌ ଲଗେ ଆସି ତାକେ କଇଲାଇ, “ଏ ଆଗିଆଁ ଆମେ ଜିସୁକେ ଦେକ୍‌ବାକେ ମନ୍‌ କଲୁନି ।” ପିଲିପ୍‌ ବେତ୍‌ସାଇଦାର୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ ରଇଲା ।
22 So after Philip went and told that to Andrew, they both went and told Jesus.
୨୨ପିଲିପ୍‌ ଜାଇ ଆନ୍ଦ୍‌ରିୟକେ ଏ କବର୍‌ ଜାନାଇଲାକେ ସେମନ୍‌ ଜାଇ ଜିସୁକେ କଇଲାଇ ।
23 Then, [to show them that he must die in order to give eternal life to non-Jews like those Greeks], Jesus replied to them, “It is time for [God] to honor me, the one who came from heaven. [That will happen when I die].
୨୩ଜିସୁ ସେମନ୍‌କେ କଇଲା, “ପର୍‌ମେସର୍‌ତେଇ ଅନି ଆଇଲା ନର୍‌ପିଲା ମୁଇ ଡାକ୍‌ପୁଟା ପାଇବା ବେଲା ଆସି କେଟି ଆଚେ ।
24 Listen to this carefully: [My life is like a seed] [MET]. If [someone] does not plant a kernel of grain in the ground, it does not change. It remains only one [seed]. But if it changes [after it is planted in the ground, it will grow and] produce many seeds.
୨୪ମୁଇ ତମ୍‌କେ ସତ୍‌କାତା କଇଲିନି ଜଦି ଗଅମ୍‌ ମୁଞ୍ଜି ବୁଏଁ ଅଦ୍‌ରି ନ ମର୍‌ବା ଜାକ ସେନ୍ତିସେ ରଇସି । ସେଟା ମଲେ ସେ ବେସି ମୁଞ୍ଜି ଦାର୍‌ସି ।
25 Anyone who strongly wants to keep on living [here on earth] will surely lose his life forever. But anyone who is willing to die [HYP] [for my sake] will surely gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

26 If [any of these Greeks or] anyone [else] wants to serve me, they must become my disciples. Then, [after they die], they will be where I am, [in heaven]. My Father will honor all those who serve me.

29 The crowd that was there heard [it but they did not understand the words. Some said] it was thunder. Others said an angel had spoken to him.
୨୯ତେଇ ଟିଆଅଇ ରଇଲା ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ଏ ସବଦ୍‌ ସୁନି କରି “ଏଟା ବାଦଲ୍‌ ଗୁଡ୍‌ଗୁଡ୍‌ଲା” ବଲି କଇଲାଇ । ମାତର୍‌ ଅଦେକ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌, “ସର୍‌ଗେଅନି ଗଟେକ୍‌ ଦୁତ୍‌ ତାର୍‌ ସଙ୍ଗ୍‌ କାତା ଅଇଲାନି” ବଲି କଇଲାଇ ।
30 Jesus replied to them, “The voice that you heard speaking [was God’s voice, but] it was not for my benefit. It was for your benefit!
୩୦ଜିସୁ ସେ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌କେ କଇଲା, “ଏ ସବଦ୍‌ ମର୍‌ ପାଇ ଅଏନାଇ, ମାତର୍‌ ତମର୍‌ ପାଇସେ ଅଇଲା ।
31 Now is the time for [God] to judge [the people in] [MTY] the world. Now is the time when [I] will destroy [the power of Satan], the one who rules this world.

୩୨ଆରି ମକେ କୁର୍‌ସେ ଟେକ୍‌ଲେ, ସବୁ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌କେ ମର୍‌ବାଟେ ଜିକ୍‌ବି” ବଲି କଇଲା ।
33 He said this to show us the way in which he was going to die.
୩୩ସେ କେନ୍ତିଅଇ ମର୍‌ବାକେ ଗାଲାନି, ସେଟା ଜାନାଇବାକେ ଏନ୍ତି କଇରଇଲା ।
34 [Someone in] the crowd answered him, “We understand from the Scriptures that the Messiah will live forever. So why do you say that the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], will be lifted up {that [men] will lift up the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], } on a cross? What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn g165)
୩୪ସେବେଲା ସବୁ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌ ତାକେ କଇଲାଇ, “ମସିଅ ସବୁ ଦିନର୍‌ ପାଇ ବଁଚି ରଇସି ବଲି ଆମର୍‌ ସାସ୍‌ତରେ ଲେକା ଆଚେ । ତୁଇ କେନ୍ତି ପର୍‌ମେସରର୍‌ ପିଲାକେ କୁର୍‌ସେ ଟେକ୍‌ବାଇ ବଲି କଇଲୁସ୍‌ନି? ଏନ୍ତିବଇଲେ ପର୍‌ମେସରର୍‌ ଟାନେଅନି ଆଇଲା ନର୍‌ପିଲା କେ ତେବେ?” (aiōn g165)
35 Then Jesus said to them, “[My message is like] [MET] a light for you. [I] will be with you for only a little while longer. Live and act [as you should] while I am still with you, [because suddenly you will have no more opportunity to hear my message! You do not want to be like] [MET] [someone] who cannot see where he is going any more [when it suddenly] becomes dark!
୩୫ଜିସୁ ସେମନ୍‌କେ କ‍ଇଲା, “ଏବେ ତମର୍‌ ମୁଆଟେ ଜନ୍‌ ଉଜଲ୍‌, ଉଜଲ୍‌ ଦେଲାନି, ସେଟା ଚନେକର୍‌ପାଇସେ ରଇସି । ଜନ୍‌ ଜାଗାଇ ଜିବାର୍‌ ଆଚେ, ଉଜଲ୍‌ ରଇତେ ଆକା ଇଣ୍ଡା । ସେନ୍ତାର୍‌ଆଲେ ତମ୍‌କେ ଆନ୍ଦାର୍‌ ନ ଡାବେ । ଆନ୍ଦାରେ ରଇବା ଲକ୍‌ କେନେ ଗାଲାନି ସେଟା ନାଜାନେ ।
36 Believe in my message [MET] while you still have an opportunity to do it, in order that you may become people who have accepted my truth [MET]!” John 12:36b-43 After Jesus said those things, he left them and hid from them.

37 Although he had done many miracles while people were watching, [most of] them refused to believe that he [is] ([the Messiah/from God]).

38 [Their stubbornness and refusal to believe was similar to the stubbornness of the people that] the prophet Isaiah wrote about long ago: Lord, (hardly anyone has believed our message!/who has believed our message?) [RHQ] Most people refused to accept it, even though you showed them your power!
୩୮ଜେନ୍ତାରି ଜିସାୟ ବବିସତ୍‌ବକ୍‌ତା କଇଲା କାତା ସତ୍‌ ଅଇଲା । ସେ ଏନ୍ତି କଇରଇଲା, “ଏ ମାପ୍‌ରୁ, ଆମେ କଇଲା କାତା ସୁନିକରି କେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କଲାଆଚେ? ଆରି ମାପ୍‌ରୁ କାର୍‌ଲଗେ ତାର୍‌ ରକିଆ କର୍‌ବା ବପୁ ଦେକାଇଲା?”
39 That was the reason why they were unable to believe. [It was like] Isaiah wrote somewhere else that God said:

40 They have [refused to understand; they acted as though they were] blind people! They were insensible in their inner beings! As a result, they have not perceived [my truth]! They have not understood it in their inner beings! They have not turned [from their sinful lives], and because of that I cannot help them!

41 Isaiah wrote that because [it was as though] he saw [ahead of time] how great Jesus would be, and he prophesied [those things] about him.
୪୧ଜିସାୟ ବବିସତ୍‌ବକ୍‌ତା ପୁର୍‌ବେ ଜିସୁ ମାପ୍‌ରୁର୍‌ ଏ ସବୁ ମଇମା ଜାନିରଇଲାଜେ ଏନ୍ତି ବଲି କଇରଇଲା ।
42 Although most of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] did not believe that Jesus is ([the Messiah/from God]), some of them believed in him. But they would not tell anyone that they believed in him, because [they were afraid that if they said that], the Pharisees would not let them worship in the synagogues.
୪୨ଏଲେ ମିସା ଜିଉଦି ନେତାମନର୍‌ ବିତ୍‌ରେଅନି କେତେ ଲକ୍‌ ତାକେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କଲାଇ । ମାତର୍‌ ସେମନ୍‌ ପାରୁସି ମନର୍‌ଲାଗି ପାର୍‌ତନା ଗରେ ଅନି ବାର୍‌କରାଇଦେବାଇ ବଲି ଡରିକରି କାତାବାର୍‌ତା ନ ଅଇତେ ରଇଲାଇ ।

44 [Another day, when] Jesus [was teaching the people, he] shouted, “Those who believe in me, they are not believing in [me alone]. Instead, [it is as though] they also believe in the one who sent me.
୪୪ଜିସୁ ଆଉଲିଅଇ କଇଲା, “ଜନ୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ ମକେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କର୍‌ସି, ସେ ମକେସେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କରେନାଇ, ମକେ ଜେ ପାଟାଇଲା ଆଚେ, ତାକେ ମିସା ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କଲାନି ।”
45 When they see me [and what I am doing, it is as though] they are seeing the one who sent me.
୪୫ଜେ ମକେ ଦେକି ଆଚେ, ସେ ମକେ ପାଟାଉକେ ମିସା ଦେକି ଆଚେ ।
46 I have come into the world [to show people God’s truth], as a light [shows people what is around them]. I have come in order that people who believe in me will not remain [ignorant of God’s truth] [MET], [as those who are] in the darkness [are ignorant of what is around them].
୪୬ମୁଇ ଜଗତର୍‌ ଉଜଲ୍‌ ଅଇ ଆଇଲିଆଚି । ଜେ ମକେ ବିସ୍‌ବାସ୍‌ କର୍‌ସି, ସେ ଆରି ଆନ୍ଦାରେ ନ ରଏ ।
47 As for those who hear my message but do not obey [its commands], I am not [the one who] judges them. [The main reason] that I came ([into the world/from heaven]) was not to judge [the people of] [MTY] the world. Instead, I came to save them [from being punished for their sins].
୪୭ଜେ ମର୍‌ ବାକିଅ ସୁନି ନ ମାନେ, ମୁଇ ତାର୍‌ ବିଚାର୍‌ ନ କରି । କାଇକେବଇଲେ ମୁଇ ଜଗତର୍‌ ଲକ୍‌ମନ୍‌କେ ବିଚାର୍‌ କର୍‌ବାର୍‌ ଆସିନାଇ, ମାତର୍‌ ସେମନ୍‌କେ ରକିଆ କର୍‌ବାର୍‌ ଆସିଆଚି ।
48 There is something that will judge those who reject me and do not accept my message. On the judgment day [God] will condemn them [because they rejected] the message that I have told them.
୪୮ଜେ ମକେ ନିଚି କରି ମର୍‌ ବାକିଅ ନ ମାନେ, ମର୍‌ ଟଣ୍ଡର୍‌ ବାକିଅ ତାର୍‌ ବିଚାର୍‌ କାରିଆ ଅଇସି । ସାରାସାରି ଦିନେ ସେ ବାକିଅସେ ତାକେ ବିଚାର୍‌ କର୍‌ସି ।
49 I have not said things from my own [authority]. Instead, [my] Father, the one who sent me, instructed me what to say and how I should say it.
୪୯ମୁଇ ନିଜର୍‌ ମନେ ଅନି କାଇଟା ମିସା କଇନାଇ, ଏ କାତା ସତ୍‌ । ମାତର୍‌ ମୁଇ କଇବାଟା ମକେ ପାଟାଇରଇବା ବାବା ଆଦେସ୍‌ ଦେଇଆଚେ ।
50 I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios g166)
୫୦ଆରି ମୁଇ ଜାନିଆଚି, ତାର୍‌ ଆଦେସ୍‌ ନ ସାର୍‌ବା ଜିବନ୍‌ ଦେଇସି । ମର୍‌ ବାବା ମକେ ଜନ୍‌ କାତା କଇବାକେ ଆଦେସ୍‌ ଦେଇଆଚେ, ସେଟାସେ ମୁଇ କଇଲିନି । (aiōnios g166)
