John 1
1 The one who expresses [MET] ([God’s character/what God is like]) has always existed (from the beginning [MTY] [of everything/before everything began]). He has always existed with God, and he has God’s nature.
Kezdetben vala az Íge, és az Íge vala az Istennél, és Isten vala az Íge.
2 He always existed with God [before] he began [MTY] [to create anything].
Ez kezdetben az Istennél vala.
3 He is the one by whom [God] caused everything to exist. He is the one who created absolutely everything [LIT].
Minden ő általa lett és nála nélkül semmi sem lett, a mi lett.
4 He is the one who [caused everything to] live. He, who caused us people to live, [revealed to us the truth about God as] a light [MET] [reveals what is in the darkness].
Ő benne vala az élet, és az élet vala az emberek világossága;
5 People do not want him to reveal [that what they do is evil] [MET], just [like] darkness [is evil]. But [just like] darkness cannot put out light [MET], [evil people have never prevented the one who was like a light from revealing God’s truth] (OR, [evil people have never] understood the [one who was like] a light.)
És a világosság a sötétségben fénylik, de a sötétség nem fogadta be azt.
6 A man whose name was John was sent by God {God sent a man whose name was John}.
Vala egy Istentől küldött ember, kinek neve János.
7 He came to tell people [about the one who was like] [MET] a light. He came to show that everything that the [one who was like a light] [MET] said was true, in order that he could enable all people to believe [in the one who was like a light].
Ez jött tanúbizonyságul, hogy bizonyságot tegyen a világosságról, hogy mindenki higyjen ő általa.
8 John himself was not the [one who was like a] light [MET]. Instead, he came to tell others about that [one who was like a] light.
Nem ő vala a világosság, hanem jött, hogy bizonyságot tegyen a világosságról.
9 [While John was doing that], the one who was truly [like] a light was about to show himself to the world. He was the one who enables all people [to know about God, as] a light [MET] enables [people to know what is in the darkness].
Az igazi világosság eljött volt már a világba, a mely megvilágosít minden embert.
10 Although the one [who was like a light] was [here] on the earth, and although he was the one whom [God] caused to create everything, [most] people [MTY, HYP] did not realize who he [was]. (OR, although he was the one whom [God] caused to create everything, [most] people did not accept him.)
A világban volt és a világ általa lett, de a világ nem ismerte meg őt.
11 Although he came to the land that belonged to him [because he created it, most of] his own people, [the Jews], rejected him (OR, did not accept him).
Az övéi közé jöve, és az övéi nem fogadák be őt.
12 But those [of us who welcomed him, God] authorized [that we would have a relationship with] him [MET] [like] children [have a relationship with their father]. We were people who believed [that what he said] about himself [MTY] [was true].
Valakik pedig befogadák őt, hatalmat ada azoknak, hogy Isten fiaivá legyenek, azoknak, a kik az ő nevében hisznek;
13 We became [like God’s children], not because our ancestors [belonged to God], or because of someone’s sexual desires, nor because some man desired to have children like himself. Instead, we were caused by God {God caused us} to become [like] his children.
A kik nem vérből, sem a testnek akaratából, sem a férfiúnak indulatjából, hanem Istentől születtek.
14 The one who expresses [MET] ([God’s character/what God is like]) became a human being, and he lived among us [for a while]. As a result, we saw how wonderful he is. He came from [God] his father, and there was no other person as wonderful as he. He was wonderful because he always acted (kindly toward us/in ways we did not deserve), and he always [spoke] truthfully to us [about God].
És az Íge testté lett és lakozék mi közöttünk (és láttuk az ő dicsőségét, mint az Atya egyszülöttjének dicsőségét), a ki teljes vala kegyelemmel és igazsággal.
15 [One day] when John was telling people about him, [he saw Jesus]. Then he shouted to them, “I told you [previously] that someone will come later who is more important than I am, since he existed [long] before me. This [is the man I was talking about]!”
János bizonyságot tett ő róla, és kiáltott, mondván: Ez vala, a kiről mondám: A ki utánam jő, előttem lett, mert előbb volt nálamnál.
16 We have all benefited very much from what he has done. Again and again, he has acted in kind way toward us in ways we did not deserve.
És az ő teljességéből vettünk mindnyájan kegyelmet is kegyelemért.
17 Moses proclaimed [God’s] laws [to our ancestors]. But what Jesus Christ did for us [was much better]. He acted in kindness toward us in ways we did not deserve and told us the truth [about God].
Mert a törvény Mózes által adatott, a kegyelem pedig és az igazság Jézus Krisztus által lett.
18 No one has ever seen God. But God’s only Son, [Jesus], who has always had a very close relationship with God, has told us about God.
Az Istent soha senki nem látta; az egyszülött Fiú, a ki az Atya kebelében van, az jelentette ki őt.
19 The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] in Jerusalem [city] sent some [Jewish] priests and (Levites/men who worked in the temple) to where John was, to ask him some questions. They said to him, “What do you [claim about] yourself?”
És ez a János bizonyságtétele, a mikor a zsidók papokat és Lévitákat küldöttek Jeruzsálemből, hogy megkérdezzék őt: Kicsoda vagy te?
20 So John told them the truth, and he told them clearly [DOU]. He said, “[I] am not (the Messiah/God’s chosen king)!”
És megvallá és nem tagadá; és megvallá, hogy: Nem én vagyok a Krisztus.
21 Then they asked him, “Then what [do you say about yourself]? Are you [the prophet] Elijah [that was prophesied to return] {([someone/another prophet]) [prophesied would return]} [before the Messiah]?” He replied, “No, [I] am not.” Then they asked him, “Are you the prophet [like Moses that] ([we are waiting for/God promised to send])?” He replied, “No.”
És kérdezék őt: Kicsoda tehát? Illés vagy-é te? És monda: Nem vagyok. A próféta vagy-é te? És ő felele: Nem.
22 So they asked him, “Then who do you [claim to be]? [Tell us] so that we can [go back and] report to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
Mondának azért néki: Kicsoda vagy? Hogy megfelelhessünk azoknak, a kik minket elküldöttek: Mit mondasz magad felől?
23 John replied, “[I] am the one [the prophet Isaiah said] would proclaim [this new message] loudly [to the people who would pass by] in this desolate area: ‘Prepare [yourselves to receive] the Lord when he comes [MET], [just like people prepare] a road [for an important official].
Monda: Én kiáltó szó vagyok a pusztában. Egyengessétek az Úrnak útját, a mint megmondotta Ésaiás próféta.
24 Some of those people [who were questioning] John were ones who had been sent by the Pharisee [religious group] {whom the Pharisee [religious group] had sent}.
És a küldöttek a farizeusok közül valók voltak:
25 They asked John, “Since [you say] you are not the Messiah, nor [the prophet] Elijah, nor the prophet [like Moses], [what authority] do you have? [Furthermore], why are you baptizing [Jews, treating them as though they were non-Jews who wanted to become Jews]?”
És megkérdék őt és mondának néki: Miért keresztelsz tehát, ha te nem vagy a Krisztus, sem Illés, sem a próféta?
26 John replied, “I am [just] baptizing people with water [to prepare them to welcome the Messiah]. But [right now] someone is among you whom you people do not know.
Felele nékik János, mondván: Én vízzel keresztelek; de köztetek van, a kit ti nem ismertek.
27 He [will preach to you] after I [am gone]. [He is so important that] I am not worthy to [serve him as a slave] [MET] [by] untying his sandals.”
Ő az, a ki utánam jő, a ki előttem lett, a kinek én nem vagyok méltó, hogy saruja szíjját megoldjam.
28 Those things happened at [a place called] Bethany, on the [east] side of the Jordan [River], where John was baptizing people.
Ezek Béthabarában lettek, a Jordánon túl, a hol János keresztel vala.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him. He said to the people, “Look! Here is the [man whom] God [has appointed to be a sacrifice] [MET], [like] the lambs [that the people of Israel sacrificed! By sacrificing himself] he will [make it possible for everyone in] the world to be no longer [guilty for having] sinned.
Másnap látá János Jézust ő hozzá menni, és monda: Ímé az Istennek ama báránya, a ki elveszi a világ bűneit!
30 He is the one about whom I said [before], ‘Someone will come later who is more important than I am, since he existed [long] before me.’
Ez az, a kiről én ezt mondám: Én utánam jő egy férfiú, a ki előttem lett, mert előbb volt nálamnál.
31 I myself did not [previously] recognize that he [was the Messiah]. But [now I know who he is], and I have baptized people with water to enable [you people of] Israel to recognize who he is.”
És én nem ismertem őt; de hogy megjelentessék Izráelnek, azért jöttem én, a ki vízzel keresztelek.
32 John spoke clearly [what God had shown him about Jesus]. He said, “I saw [God’s] Spirit as he was descending from heaven in the form of a dove. The Spirit remained on Jesus.
És bizonyságot tőn János, mondván: Láttam a Lelket leszállani az égből, mint egy galambot; és megnyugovék ő rajta.
33 I myself did not know [previously] that he [was the Messiah]. However, [God] sent me to baptize people with water, [people who said they wanted to turn from their sinful ways. While I was doing that], God told me, ‘The man on whom you will see my Spirit descend and remain is the one who will put the Holy Spirit within you [(pl) to truly change your lives].’
És én nem ismertem őt; de a ki elkülde engem, hogy vízzel kereszteljek, az mondá nékem: A kire látod a Lelket leszállani és rajta megnyugodni, az az, a ki keresztel Szent Lélekkel.
34 I saw [the Spirit descend on him], and I tell you that he is (the Son of God/the person who is both God and man).”
És én láttam, és bizonyságot tettem, hogy ez az Isten Fia.
35 The next day John was at the same place again (with two of us/with two of his disciples).
Másnap ismét ott állt vala János és kettő az ő tanítványai közül;
36 When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, “Look! There is the man God [has appointed to be a sacrifice, like] the lambs [MET] [the people of Israel have sacrificed!]”
És ránézvén Jézusra, a mint ott jár vala, monda: Ímé az Isten Báránya!
37 (When we/those two disciples) heard John say this, we/they went with Jesus.
És hallá őt a két tanítvány, a mint szól vala, és követék Jézust.
38 Jesus turned around and saw us/them coming behind him. So he asked us/them, “What do you want?” We/They replied, “Teacher, [tell us] where you are staying, [because we want to talk with you].”
Jézus pedig hátrafordulván és látván, hogy követik azok, monda nékik: Mit kerestek? Azok pedig mondának néki: Rabbi, (a mi megmagyarázva azt teszi: Mester) hol lakol?
39 He replied, “Come [with me], and you will see [where I am staying]!” So we/they went with him and saw where he was staying. We/They stayed with him until about 4 o’clock (OR, from about 4 PM until the next day).
Monda nékik: Jőjjetek és lássátok meg. Elmenének és megláták, hol lakik; és nála maradának azon a napon: vala pedig körülbelül tíz óra.
40 (One of us/One of the two men) who heard what John had said and who went with Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter’s [younger] brother.
A kettő közül, a kik Jánostól ezt hallották és őt követték vala, András volt az egyik, a Simon Péter testvére.
41 [After Andrew left Jesus], the first thing he did was to find his own [older] brother Simon and say to him, “We have found the Messiah!”
Találkozék ez először a maga testvérével, Simonnal, és monda néki: Megtaláltuk a Messiást (a mi megmagyarázva azt teszi: Krisztus);
42 Then he took Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked intently at him, and then said, “You are Simon. Your father’s name is John. You will be given {[I] will give you} the name Cephas.” [Cephas is an Aramaic name that means ‘solid rock’. It] means [the same in Greek as the name] Peter.
És vezeté őt Jézushoz. Jézus pedig reá tekintvén, monda: Te Simon vagy, a Jóna fia; te Kéfásnak fogsz hivatni (a mi megmagyarázva: Kőszikla).
43 The next day [Jesus] decided to leave [the Jordan River valley]. He went to Galilee [district] and (OR, on the way there he) found a man named Philip. Jesus said to him, “Come with me!”
A következő napon Galileába akart menni Jézus; és találkozék Fileppel, és monda néki: Kövess engem!
44 Philip and Andrew and Peter were all from Bethsaida [town].
Filep pedig Bethsaidából, az András és Péter városából való volt.
45 Then Philip [searched for] Nathaniel and found him, and said to him, “We have met [the Messiah], the one Moses [wrote about]! The prophets also [prophesied that he would come]. He is Jesus, from Nazareth [town]. His father’s name is Joseph.”
Találkozék Filep Nátánaellel, és monda néki: A ki felől írt Mózes a törvényben, és a próféták, megtaláltuk a názáreti Jézust, Józsefnek fiát.
46 Nathaniel replied, “Nazareth? (Nothing good can come from [such an unimportant place]!/Can anything good come from [such an unimportant place]?) [RHQ]” Philip replied, “Come and see!”
És monda néki Nátánael: Názáretből támadhat-é valami jó? Monda néki Filep: Jer és lásd meg!
47 When Jesus saw Nathaniel approaching, he said about Nathaniel, “Here is an example of a good Israelite! He never deceives anyone!”
Látá Jézus Nátánaelt ő hozzá menni, és monda ő felőle: Ímé egy igazán Izráelita, a kiben hamisság nincsen.
48 Nathaniel asked him, “How do you know what I [am like]?” Jesus replied, “I saw you before Philip called you, when you were [by yourself] under the fig tree.”
Monda néki Nátánael: Honnan ismersz engem? Felele Jézus és monda néki: Mielőtt hítt téged Filep, láttalak téged, a mint a fügefa alatt voltál.
49 Then Nathaniel declared, “Teacher, you [must be] (the Son of God/the person who is both God and man)! You are the King of Israel [we have been waiting for]!”
Felele Nátánael és monda néki: Rabbi, te vagy az Isten Fia, te vagy az Izráel Királya!
50 Jesus replied to him, “You [RHQ] believe [those things about me] because I told you I saw you when you were under the fig tree. [I was able to see you supernaturally even though I was far away from you]. But you will see [me do] things that are more surprising than that!”
Felele Jézus és monda néki: Hogy azt mondám néked: láttalak a fügefa alatt, hiszel? Nagyobbakat látsz majd ezeknél.
51 Then Jesus said to him, “This is the absolute truth: [Just like what your ancestor Jacob saw long ago in a vision], some day you [(pl)] will see heaven opened up, and you will see God’s angels ascending from me and descending on me, the one who came from heaven.”
És monda néki: Bizony, bizony mondom néktek: Mostantól fogva meglátjátok a megnyilt eget, és az Isten angyalait, a mint felszállnak és leszállnak az ember Fiára.
