John 7
1 After those things happened, Jesus went around in Galilee [province]. He did not want to travel in Judea [province], because he knew that the Jewish [leaders there] were wanting to kill him.
Amalalu, Yesu da Ga: lili soge ganodini lalu. Yu ouligisu dunu da Yesu medole legemu logo hogoi helebeba: le, E da Yudia soge ganodini lalumu yolesiagai.
2 But when the time of the Jewish celebration [called] ‘Celebration of [Living in] Shelters’ was near,
Yu dunu ilia Sogega Fasela Diasuga Lolo Nasu eso da gadenei ba: i.
3 Jesus’ [younger] brothers said to him, “[Since many people] here [have left you], you should leave and go to Judea [province and perform] some miracles there, so that your disciples may see them!
Amaiba: le, Yesu Ea eyalali da Ema amane sia: i, “Amo soge yolesili, Yudia sogega masa! Dia fa: no bobogesu dunu Dia gasa bagade hawa: hamonanebe ba: ma: ne, Di masa!
4 No one who wants to become famous does things secretly. [You say] you are doing these miracles, [so do some miracles there] so that everyone [MTY] can see them!”
Nowa dunu da ea hou huluane eno dunuma olelemusa: dawa: sea, e da ea hou hame wamolegesa. Di da amo hou hamobeba: le, osobo bagade dunu huluane ba: ma: ne olelema.”
5 [They said this critically], because even [though they were] his own [younger] brothers, they did not believe he [was from God].
Yesu Ea eyalali da Ea hou dafawaneyale hame dawa: beba: le, Ema amane sia: i.
6 So Jesus said to them, “It is not yet time for me [MTY] [to go to the celebration]. For you, any time is right [to go to the celebration].
Yesu da ilima amane sia: i, “Na ilegei eso da wali hame. Be dilima eso huluane da defele agoane diala.
7 [The people] [MTY] [who] ([do not believe in me/do not belong to God]) cannot hate you, but they hate me because I tell them that what they are doing is evil.
Osobo bagade fi dunu da dilima higale hamomu hamedei. Be Na da osobo bagade fi dunu ilima ilia wadela: i hou olelebeba: le, ilia da Na higasa.
8 You [(pl)] go ahead to the celebration. I am not going up [to Jerusalem] to the celebration [yet], because now is not the right time for me [to go].”
Dilia amo Lolo Nasu amoga heda: ma. Na ilegei eso da hame doaga: beba: le, Na da hame misunu.”
9 After he said that, Jesus stayed [a little longer] in Galilee.
Amo sia: nanu, Yesu da Ga: lili sogega ouesalu.
10 However, [a few days] after his younger brothers left to go up to the celebration, he went also. He went, along with [us] disciples, but no others went with us.
Yesu Ea eyalali da Lolo Nasu amoga asi dagoiba: le, Yesu da fa: no asi. Be E da wamowane doaga: musa: asi.
11 At the celebration, the Jewish [leaders] were looking for him. They were asking people, “Has Jesus come?”
Yu ouligisu dunu da Lolo Nasu amoga, Yesu hogolalu. “E da habila: ?” ilia amane adole ba: i.
12 Among the crowds, many people were whispering about Jesus. Some were saying, “He is a good man!” But others were saying instead, “No! He is deceiving the crowds!”
Dunu bagohame da amo gilisisu ganodini bagadewane sadoga sia: dalu. Mogili, “E da dunu ida: iwane gala!” ilia da sia: su. Mogili, “E da dunu huluanema ogogosa!” ilia da sia: su.
13 But no one was speaking so that others could hear them, because they were afraid of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN].
Be ilia da Yu ouligisu dunu ilima beda: iba: le, ha: giwane hame, be udigili sadoga sia: su.
14 In the middle of the days of the celebration, Jesus went to the Temple [courtyard] and began to teach people.
Lolo Nasu eso da dogoa mogili hamoi dagoi, mogili dialu, amo esoha Yesu da Debolo Diasuga doaga: le, Ea olelesu muni hamoi.
15 The Jewish [elders] were amazed [at what he was saying]. They said, “This man never studied [in one of our religious schools]! So (how can he have learned [so much about Scripture]?/it is difficult for us to believe that he has learned [so much about Scripture]!) [RHQ]”
Ea sia: nababeba: le, Yu ouligisu dunu huluane da fofogadigi. Ilia amane sia: i, “Amo dunu da sugulu hame hamoiba: le, E da habodane asigi dawa: su bagadedafa ganabela: ?”
16 Jesus replied to them, “What I teach does not come from myself. It comes from [God], the one who sent me.
Yesu E bu adole i, “Na olelei da Na olelesu hame. Gode da Na asunasiba: le, olelesu liligi da Gode Ea:
17 Those who choose to do what God wants will find out whether what I teach comes from God or whether I am speaking with [only] my own [authority].
Nowa dunu da Gode Ea hanai liligi hamomusa: dawa: sea, Na adosu da Na hanai liligi hame be Gode Ea hanai liligi fawane, amo dunu da dawa: mu.
18 Those who speak with [only] their own [authority] do that [only] so that others will honor them. But I am [doing things so that others] will honor the one who sent me, and I am someone who speaks the truth. I never lie.
Nowa dunu da hi sia: fawane olelesea, e da hi logo fawane hahamomusa: dawa: Be Na da Gode Ea hadigi hou olelemusa: hanaiba: le, Na hou da moloidafa, ogogosu hame dawa:
19 [Think about] the laws that Moses gave you [RHQ]. None of you [completely] obeys those laws. So why are you trying to kill me, [saying I do not obey the laws concerning] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest])?”
Mousese da dilima Sema huluane i dagoi. Dafawanela: ? Be dilia da amo Sema nabawane hame hamosa. Dilia abuliba: le Na medomu logo hogoi helebela: ?”
20 Someone in the crowd answered, “[By saying this you show that] you are crazy (OR, A demon is controlling you)! Certainly no one is trying to kill you!”
Dunu bagohame Ema amane sia: i, “Fio liligi da Dia baligiga aligisa. Nowa da Di medomu logo hogosala: ?”
21 Jesus replied to them, “Because I did a miracle [of healing someone] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), you are all shocked.
Yesu E bu adole i, “Na da musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu afadafa hamoiba: le, dilia huluane da fofogadigi.
22 Moses gave you [a law that you must] circumcise [the male children and that you must do that exactly seven days after they are born. Actually], it was your ancestors, [Abraham and Isaac and Jacob], not Moses, who [started that ritual]. But because of that law, you sometimes circumcise them (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), [but that is working, too]
Dilia dunu mano gadofo damuni fasima: ne, Mousese sia: i (be Mousese hame, dilia aowalali fi dunu da amo hamoma: ne sia: i.). Amaiba: le, dilia Sa: bade esoga, goi ea gadofo damuni fasisa.
23 You [sometimes] circumcise boys (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) so that the law of Moses is not disobeyed {[you] do not disobey the law of Moses}, so (it is ridiculous that you are angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man!/why are you angry with me, saying [I worked] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) by healing a man?) [RHQ] [Healing someone is far more helpful than circumcising a baby boy]!
Dilia da Mousese ea sema fisa: besa: le, Sa: bade esoga goi ea gadofo damuni fasisa. Amaiba: le, Na da Sa: bade esoga dunu dafawane uhibiba: le, dilia abuliba: le Nama ougibela: ?
24 Stop deciding whether my healing this man is wrong according to what you see! Instead, decide according to what is really the right action [to help people]”!
Osobo bagade dunu ilia da: i dabuagado ba: su amoga fofada: su yolele, houdafa amoga fofada: mu da defea.”
25 Some of the people from Jerusalem were saying, “(This is the man that they are trying to kill!/Isn’t this the man that they are trying to kill?) [RHQ]
Amoha Yelusaleme dunu mogili da amane sia: i, “Yu ouligisu dunu ilia da amo dunu medole legemusa: dawa: lala.
26 He is saying these things (publicly/in front of many people), but our [Jewish] rulers are not saying anything to [oppose] him. Is that because they have decided that he is truly (the Messiah/God’s chosen king)?
Be E da hadigi ganodini dunu huluane nabima: ne sia: nana. Ea logo ilia hame hedofasa. Ebeda! E da Mesaiadafa ilia da dafawaneyale dawa: bela: ?
27 But [he cannot be the Messiah, because] we know where this man came from. When the Messiah really comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
Be hame! Mesaia da doaga: sea, E da amoganini misi soge ninia da hame dawa: mu. Be amo dunu Ea misi soge ninia huluane dawa:”
28 [They said that because they thought Jesus was born in Nazareth]. So while Jesus was teaching [people] in the Temple [courtyard], he shouted, “Yes, [you say that] you know me, and [you think] you know [IRO] where I am from. But I have come here not (because I appointed myself/with my own authority). Instead, [God] is the one who truly sent me. You do not know him.
Yesu da Debolo Diasu ganodini olelelaloba, E da ha: giwane wele sia: i, “Na hou amola Na amoganini misi soge, dilia dafawane dawa: bela: ? Na da Na hanaiba: le hame misi. Na Asunasisu Dunu Gode da dafawanedafa. Be dilia da Gode hame dawa!
29 But I know him, because I have come from him. He is the one who sent me!”
Be Na da Gode dawa: Na da Ema misi. Amola E da Na asunasi, amo Na dawa: !”
30 Then they tried to seize him [because he said that he had come from God]. But no one put their hands on him [to do that], because it was not yet the time [MTY] [for him to die].
Amalalu, Yesu ilia afugili gagumusa: dawa: i galu, be hamedei. Bai Ea ilegei eso da hame doaga: iba: le, gagulaligimu da hamedei.
31 But many of the crowd believed that he [had come from God]. They said, “When the Messiah comes, he certainly will not do more miracles than this man has done, will he?”
Be dunu bagohame amo gilisisu ganodini, ilia da Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: i galu. Ilia amane sia: i, “Mesaia da doaga: sea, E da amo dunu Ea musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu hamoi amo baligima: bela: ?”
32 The Pharisees heard them whispering these things about him. So they and the chief priests sent some Temple guards to seize him.
Fa: lisi dunu da dunu huluane ilia Yesu Ea hou sadoga sia: dabe nabi dagoi. Amaiba: le, ilia amola gobele salasu ouligisu dunu, da Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu, Yesu gagulaligima: ne, asunasi.
33 Then Jesus said, “I will be with you for only a short time. Then I will return to the one who sent me.
Yesu E amane sia: i, “Na da dili gilisili fonobahadi fawane bu ouesalu, amalu asili Na Asunasisu Dunu Ema buhagimu.
34 Then you will search for me, but you will not find me. And you will not be able to come to the place where I am.”
Dilia da Na hogoi helele be hame ba: mu. Na masunu sogega dilia masunu da hamedei.”
35 So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said to themselves, “Where is this man about to go with the result that we will not be able to find him? [Some Jewish people have] dispersed [and live] among Greek people. He is not intending to go [and live among them] and teach them, is he?
Yu ouligisu dunu ilia gilisili sia: dasu, “Ninia hogole hame ba: mu E da sia: beba: le, E da habodili masa: bela: ? E da Galigi moilai bai bagade, amo ganodini ninia fi dunu esala, amoga Galigi dunu olelela masa: bela: ?
36 When he said ‘You will search for me, but you will not be able to find me,’ and when he said ‘You will not be able to come to the place where I am,’ what [did he mean]?”
Ninia da hogole ba: loba hamedei E da sia: sa. Ea masunu sogega ninia masunu da hamedei E sia: sa. Amo sia: da adi baila?”
37 [On each of the seven days of the celebration, the high priest poured out some water on the altar in the Temple to remember how God provided water for the people in the desolate area long ago. But the water he poured did not help anyone who was thirsty. So] on the last day of the festival, which was the most important day, Jesus stood up [in the Temple courtyard] and said with a loud voice, “Those who are thirsty should come to me to drink [what I will give them].
Lolo Nasu dagomusa: , mimogo eso amoga, Yesu da wa: legadole, ha: giwane wele sia: i, “Nowa da hano hanai galea, Nama hano manusa: misa!
38 Just like the Scriptures teach, streams of water shall flow out from within those who believe in me, and that water will cause them to live [eternally].”
Gode Sia: Dedei da amane defele ba: mu, ‘Nowa da Na hou dafawaneyale dawa: sea, ea dogoga esalalalusu hano da nawa: li agoane a: imasunu!’”
39 When Jesus said that, he was referring to [God’s] Spirit, whom those who believed in Jesus would receive later. Up to that time God had not sent the Spirit [to live within believers], because Jesus had not yet [died and returned to his] glorious [home in] heaven, [from where he would send the Spirit].
Yesu da amo sia: , dunu da Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: beba: le, Gode Ea A: silibu lamu, amo hou olelemusa: sia: i. Be amo esoha, Yesu da Ea hadigi bu lama: ne hame wa: legadolisiba: le, Gode da Ea A: silibu amo osobo bagade dunu ilima hame i.
40 When some of the crowd heard those words, they said, “Surely this man is the prophet [whom God promised to send who would be like Moses]!”
Dunu gilisi amo ganodini, mogili Ea sia: nababeba: le amane sia: i, “Amo dunu da Balofededafa.”
41 Others said, “He is the Messiah!” But others, [thinking Jesus was born in Galilee], said, “The Messiah will not come from Galilee [province], will he?
Eno mogili amane sia: i, “E da Mesaia.” Be eno ilia amane sia: i, “Mesaia da Ga: lili soge amoganini hame misunu.
42 (Did [a prophet] not write in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived?/[It is written] in the Scriptures that the Messiah will come from [King] David’s family, and be born in Bethlehem, where [King] David lived!) [RHQ]”
Gode Sia: da agoane dedei diala. Mesaia da Da: ibidi ea fi amoga misini, Da: ibidi ea moilai Bedeleheme amo ganodini lalelegemu.”
43 So the people were divided because of [what they thought about] Jesus.
Amaiba: le, Yesu Ea houba: le, dunu gilisisu da mogi dagoi.
44 Some people wanted to seize him, but no one tried [to do that].
Mogili Yesu ilia afugili gagulaligimu dawa: i galu. Be ilia loboga hamedafa gagui.
45 So the Temple guards returned to the chief priests and the Pharisees, [the ones who had sent them to arrest Jesus]. They said to the guards, “Why did you not [seize him and] bring him [here]?”
Debolo sosodo aligisu dunu, Yesu mae gaguiwane, buhagiba: le, gobele salasu ouligisu dunu amola Fa: lisi dunu, ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da abuliba: le amo dunu hame oule misibala: ?”
46 They replied, “No one ever spoke such [amazing things] as this man does!”
Sosodo aligisu dunu da bu adole i, “Eno dunu da amo dunu Ea sia: i agoane hamedafa sia: su.”
47 Then the Pharisees replied, “Have you been deceived {Has [he] deceived you}, too?
Fa: lisi dunu da ougili amane sia: i. “E da dilima amola ogogobela: ?
48 (None of our rulers nor any of us Pharisees have believed that (he [is the Messiah]!/he [came from God]!)/Have any of our [Jewish] rulers or any of us Pharisees believed that (he [is the Messiah]?/he [came from God]?)) [RHQ]
Adoma! Yu ouligisu dunu afadafa fawane ma Fa: lisi dunu afadafa fawane da Ea hou dafawaneyale dawa: bela: ? Hame mabu!
49 Not one! But, on the contrary, some of this crowd [have believed in him]. They do not know [the true teachings of] our laws! They will go to hell [for listening to him]!” (questioned)
Be Ea sia: nabasu dunu huluane ilia da Mousese ea Sema hame dawa: beba: le, Gode da ilima gagabusu aligima: ne ilegei dagoi!”
50 Then Nicodemus spoke. He was the one who earlier went to Jesus [at night]. He was also a member of the Jewish council. He said to [the rest of the Council members],
Fa: lisi dunu afae ea dio amo Nigoudimase da goegami esalu. E da musa: Yesuma asi dunu. E da eno Fa: lisi dunuma amane sia: i,
51 “[We] have not listened to what he says to find out what he is doing. (It is not permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him!/Is it permitted in our [Jewish] law [PRS] for us to say, before questioning someone, that we must punish him?) [RHQ]”
“Ninia da dunu ema se iasu ima: ne fofada: musa: dawa: sea, ninia hidadea ea sia: nabalu, ea wadela: i hou hamoi hidadea ba: mu, amo ninia Sema da agoane sia: sa. Udigili se iasu imunu da hamedei.”
52 They replied to him, “(Are you another [disgusting person] from Galilee?/[You talk like] another [disgusting person] from Galilee!) [RHQ] Read [what is written in the Scriptures] You will find that no prophet comes from Galilee [province, like he does]!”
Ilia ougili bu adole i, “Di amola da Ga: lili dunula: ? Di da Gode Sia: Dedei hogoi helele, balofede dunu da Ga: lili soge amoga da misunu hamedafa ba: mu.”
53 [Then they all left and went to their own homes.
