John 1
1 In the Beginning the Word was; and the Word was with God; and the Word was God.
Ese agafare Ke me'neane, higeno ana Kemo'a Anumzane me'ne, ana Kea e'i Anumzane.
2 He was in the Beginning with God;
Ese agafarera Agra Anumzane tragoteno mani'neane.
3 through him all things came into being, and nothing came into being apart from him.
Maka'zana Agrake'za tro hu'ne, hagi mago'zana ru kampintira fore osu'ne, makazana Agrake tro hu'ne.
4 That which came into being in him was Life; and the Life was the Light of Man;
Agripi asimura me'ne, hagi ana asimumo'a vahe'mofo Masa'e.
5 and the Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness never overpowered it.
Ana masamo'a hanizana remsa hunetreankino hanizamo'a agateore'ne.
6 There appeared a man sent from God, whose name was John;
Hagi mago nera Anumzamo huntegeno e'ne, Ana ne'mofo agi'a Joni'e.
7 he came as a witness — to bear witness to the Light that through him all men might believe.
Ana ne'ma e'neana, Masamofo naneke hanigu e'ne. Ana hanige'za naneke'a nentahiza zamentinti hugahaze.
8 He was not the Light, but he came to bear witness to the Light.
Agra ana masa omani'ne, hanki ana masamofo naneke hu'ama hanigu e'ne.
9 That was the True Light which enlightens every man coming into the world.
Agra tamage masamo ama mopafi maka vahe remsa huzmentesigu ne-e.
10 He was in the world; and through him the world came into being — yet the world did not know him.
Ama mopafi Agra mani'ne, hagi Agra'a ama mopa tro hu'ne, hu'neanagi ama mopafi vahe'mo'za Agrira antahi'za ke'za osu'naze.
11 He came to his own — yet his own did not receive him.
Agra'a vaheku huno e'ne, hianagi Agri vahe'mo'za ovare'naze.
12 But to all who did receive him he gave power to become Children of God — to those who believe in his Name.
Hianagi iza'zo nevare'za Agri agifima zamentintima nehaza vahe'mokizmia, Agra'a hugnare hige'za Anumzamofo mofavre se'naze.
13 For not to natural conception, nor to human instincts, nor to will of man did they owe the new Life, but to God.
Hagi Anumzamofo mofavrema senazana arera afa zamesitero, vahe avesitero, neve avesitera forera osunazanki, Anumzamo zamazeri fore hu'ne.
14 And the Word became Man, and dwelt among us, (We saw his glory — the glory of the Only Son sent from the Father), full of love and truth.
Ana Kemo vahe fore huteno, tagri'ene mani'ne. Agri masazama'a tagra ke'none, magoke ante'nea Ne'mo hanave'ane masa zama'ane Nefantegati e'ne. Asunku zamo'ene tamage kemo'a avite'nea Nere.
15 (John bears witness to him; he cried aloud — for it was he who spoke — “‘He who is Coming’ after me is now before me, for he was ever first”);
Joni'a huama huno Agriku hu'ne. Agra kezatino amanage hu'ne, nagrama amama nehuana Agriku nehue, nagri namage'ma ne-emo'a, nagrira nagateretfa hu'ne. Na'ankure nagra fore osu'nogeno Agra pusante fore huno mani'neane.
16 out of his fullness we have all received some gift, gift after gift of love;
Higeta tagra ana maka'mota hakare zana Agripi avitenefinti e'nerunkeno, asunku huranteno muse zama'a agumpi agumpi huno neramie.
17 for the Law was given through Moses, love and truth came through Jesus Christ.
Na'ankure kasegea Mosesempi tami'ne. Hagi asunku'zane tamage kea, Jisas Kraisimpi tami'ne.
18 No man has ever yet seen God; God the Only Son, who is ever with the Father — He has revealed him.
Mopafi vahe'mo'a magore huno Anumzana onketfa hu'ne. Anumzamofo mofavrea magoke mani'neno, Nafa'amofo asumpinka mani'ne, Agra'a Anumzana mani'neno huama hu'ne.
19 When the Jews sent some Priests and Levites to John from Jerusalem, to ask — “Who are you?”, his statement was this:
Hagi Jiu kva vahe'mo'za, mono kva pristi vahe'ene Livae vahera Jerusalemi kumateti huma zamantage'za Jonina antahigeku vu'za, Kagra azage? hu'za ome antahige'naze.
20 He confessed and did not deny it, he confessed — “I am not the Christ.”
Antahigageno'a agra huama nehuno vahane osuno, huama huno, Nagra tamazahu nera Kraisi'na omani'noe.
21 “What then?” they asked. “Are you Elijah?” “No,” he said, “I am not.” “Are you ‘the Prophet’?” He answered, “No.”
Hige'za, hagi azaga mani'nane? Elaijago? hu'za hazageno, a'o, nagra Elaijana omani'noe huno hige'za, kagra kasnampa nero? hu'za antahigageno, agra kezmi nona huno, i'o huno hu'ne.
22 “Who then are you?” they continued; “tell us, that we may have some answer to give to those who have sent us. What do you say about yourself?”
Hagi hurantagetama e'nona vahe ome zamasmisunku nehune. Azaga mani'nane huta kagrikura ome zamasmigahune? Kagragura azage hunka nehane?
23 “I,” he answered, “am — ‘The voice of one crying aloud in the Wilderness — “straighten the way of the Lord”’, as the Prophet Isaiah said.”
Hazageno Agra anage hu'ne, Mago Kezanke ka'ma mopafi mani'neno keza tino, Ramofo ka azeri ante fatgo hiho huno Aisaia kasnampa ne'mo korapa hunte'nea ne' mani'noe. (Ais 40:3.)
24 These men had been sent from the Pharisees;
Hu'zmantage'za e'naza Farisi vahe'mo'za,
25 and their next question was: “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor yet ‘the Prophet’?”
zamagra antahige'za, amanage agriku hu'naze, kagra Kraisigafi, Elaijagafi, mago Kasnampa ne'ma omaninenka, nahigenka mono tina fre nezmantane?
26 John’s answer was — “I baptize with water, but among you stands one whom you do not know;
Joni'a kenona zamirera anage hu'ne, nagra amne tintfanteti mono tina frenermantoe. Hu'neanagi tamagri amunompina magora tamagra keta antahita osu'naza ne' oti'ne.
27 he is coming after me, yet I am not worthy even to unfasten his sandal.”
E'ima Agra nagri nmage'ma esanimofona Agri aga'nona knare osu'noankina katu ofegahue.
28 All this took place at Bethany, across the Jordan, where John was then baptizing.
Ana nanekea Betani kumara Jodani timofo asoparega Joni'ma mono tima frenezmanterega antahigazageno zmasami'ne.
29 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him, and exclaimed: “Here is the Lamb of God, who is to take away the sin of the world!
Anante kotigeno Jisasi'a agrite egeno negeno, Joni'a amanage hu'ne, keho, Anumzamofo Sipisipi anentara, ama mopafi vahe'mokizmi kumira, Agra eri atregahie!
30 It was of him that I spoke when I said ‘After me there is coming a man who is now before me, for he was ever First.’
Ama'ne ana nera, Agriku'ma hu'na nagrama kema hu'noana, nagri namge'ma esnia nera, nagrira nagatereno ra agi eri'nea nere, nagra fore osu'nogeno, Agra korapa Agraragisa mani'nea nere.
31 I myself did not know him, but, that he may be made known to Israel, I have come, baptizing with water.”
Nagra antahi'na ke'na Agrira osu'noanagi, Israeli vahe'mo'za Agrira antahiza keza hanaze hu'na, nagra ena mono tina eme frezmante'noe.
32 John also made this statement — “I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of the heavens, and it remained upon him.
Joni'a huama huno amanage hu'ne, Nagra kogeno Avamura maho namamo hiaza huno monafinti eramino Agrite emanige'na ke'noe.
33 I myself did not know him, but he who sent me to baptize with water, he said to me ‘He upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining upon him — he it is who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
Nagra ke'na antahi'na Agrira osu'noanagi, mono tima frezmanto huno'ma hunante'nea ne'mo'a anage huno nasmi'ne, kesnankenoma Avamumo'ma monafinkati'ma eramino Agrite'ma emani'nea ne'mo, Agra Ruotge Avamupina mono tina fre zamantegahie hu'ne.
34 This I have seen myself, and I have declared my belief that he is the Son of God.”
Nagrani'a kete'na, huama hu'na ama Anumzamofo mofavre hu'na neramasmue.
35 The next day, when John was standing with two of his disciples,
Anante zupa Joni'a, amage'ma nenta'a disaipoli netrema'ane oti'neno,
36 he looked at Jesus as he passed and exclaimed: “There is the Lamb of God!”
Jisasi'a ne-egeno Joni'a negeno amanage huno hu'ne, Keho, amu Anumzamofo Sipisipi anentare,
37 The two disciples heard him say this, and followed Jesus.
anage hige'ne, Joni amagema nenta'a disaipol netremoke nentahi'ne, Jisasi amage'anteke vu'na'e.
38 But Jesus turned round, and saw them following. “What are you looking for?” he asked. “Rabbi,” they answered (or, as we should say, ‘Teacher’), “where are you staying?”
Jisasi'a amage'a nevakeno rukrahe huno neznageno, Na'anku nehakra'e? huno znantahigege'ne, Rempi hurami ne'moka inante Kagra nemanine? hu'ne antahigena'e.
39 “Come, and you shall see,” he replied. So they went, and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him. It was then about four in the afternoon.
Agra anage zanagriku hu'ne, E'netna tanagratani'a emege'o hige'ne, Agrane vuke nemania nonkuma omenege'ne ana zupa Agrane mani'nakeno, 4 kiloki hu'ne.
40 One of the two, who heard what John said and followed Jesus, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
Hagi nanterana mago'mo Joni hiankema antahiteno Jisasi amage'ma vu'nea nera Endru'e, Saimon Pitana nefu'e.
41 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him: “We have found the Messiah!” (a word which means ‘Christ,’ or ‘Consecrated’.)
Hagi Endru'a, Jisasima keteno pusante Endru'a nefu Saimoni keno, amanage huno asami'ne. Tagra hago Mesaiana hakreta erifore hu'none. (E'i ana agima eri rukrehe'ma hu'neana Kraisi'e hu'ne.)
42 Then he brought him to Jesus. Fixing his eyes on him, Jesus said: “You are Simon, the son of John; you shall be called Kephas” (which means ‘Peter,’ or ‘Rock’).
Jisasinte Endru'a, Saimonina avreno vu'ne. Vigeno Jisasi'a negeno anage huno asmi'ne, Kagra Saimonige Joni nemofoga mani'nane, kagri kagi'a Sifasi'e hugahaze. (E'i ana agima eri rukrehe'ma hu'neana Pita'e hu'ne.)
43 The following day Jesus decided to leave for Galilee. He found Philip, and said to him: “Follow me.”
Mseno kotigeno Jisasi'a Galili vunaku nehuno Filipi ome negeno, Nagri namage anto hu'ne.
44 Philip was from Bethsaida, and a fellow-townsman of Andrew and Peter.
Hanki Filipi'a Betsaidati ne' Andrune, Pitakiznia rankuma zani'areti nere.
45 He found Nathanael and said to him: “We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and of whom the Prophets also wrote — Jesus of Nazareth, Joseph’s son!”
Filipi'a, Natanieli'e nehaza ne' kefore huteno amanage huno asmi'ne, Mosesi'ene kasnampa vahe'mo'zama avontafepima agenke'ama krente'naza Ne'ma, Nazareti kumateti Josefe nemofo Jisasi'e hu'naza nera hago hakreta erifore hu'none, huno asmi'ne.
46 “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” asked Nathanael. “Come and see,” replied Philip.
Natanieli'a anage huno Filipina antahige'ne, Nazaretia knare'zana efore hugahio? Filipi'a anage hu'ne, kagraka'a enka emego.
47 When Jesus saw Nathanael coming towards him, he said: “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit!”
Natanieli'a Agritega ne-egeno Jisasi'a negeno amanage hu'ne, Keho, tamage Israeli vahere agu'afina havige hu'zana omne'ne!
48 “How do you know me?” asked Nathanael. “Even before Philip called you,” replied Jesus, “when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
Natanieli'a Agriku anage hu'ne. Kagra inankna hunka nagrira nage'nane? Jisasi'a ke'nona huno amanage hu'ne, Filipi'a kagi osu'negenka fiki zafa agafafi mani'nanke'na ko kage'noe.
49 “Rabbi,” Nathanael exclaimed, “you are the Son of God, you are King of Israel!”
Higeno Natanieli'a Agri ke'nona amanage hu'ne, Hurami nere, Kagra fatgo hunka Anumzamofo nemofoga mani'nane. Kagra Israeli vahe'mokizmi Kini nere.
50 “Do you believe in me,” asked Jesus, “because I told you that I saw you under the fig tree? You shall see greater things than those!
Higeno, Jisasi'a ke'are anage huno asmi'ne, Na'ankure Nagrama hu'na fiki zafa agafafi mani'nanke'na kage'noema huazanku kamentinti nehano? Henka'a agatere'neaza ruzahu'za kagra kegahane.
51 In truth I tell you,” he added, “you shall all see Heaven open, and ‘the angels of God ascending and descending’ upon the Son of Man.”
Higeno Jisasi'a mago'ane amanage huno Natanielina asami'ne, Tamagerafa hu'na Nagra kagrira negasamue, kagra negesankeno mona kafamo'a anagisigeno, Anumzamofo ankero zagamo'za, Vahe'mofo Mofavrere mareriza tamiza nehanigenka kegahane.
