John 8
1 Jesus went to the mount of Olives.
Yesu kagenditi kulugongu lwa Mzeituni.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down, and taught them.
Shirawu yakuwi mandawira putiputi kagenditi kayi Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu. Wantu woseri wamgendera, nayomberi kalivaga kanja kankufunda.
3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought to him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
Wafunda gwa malagaliru na Mafalisayu wamjegera mdala yumu yawambatiti ugoni pakahumba. Wamgolusiya pakati pawu.
4 They say to him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
Wamkosia, “mfunda! Mdala ayu yawambatiti ugoni kaweriti kankuhumba.
5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
Malagaliru ga Musa katulagalira mdala handa ayu wamgumi mabuhi. Su, gwenga gutakula hashi?”
6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
Watakuliti hangu kwa kumjera Yesu, wapati shanzu sha kumsitaki. Yesu kasuntama, kalemba mlitapaka kwa shyala.
7 So when they continued asking him, he raised himself, and said to them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
Pawawongiriti kumkosiya, Yesu kagolokiti, kawagambira “Muntu yakeniweri na vidoda pakati penu kiwi gwa kwanja kumguma libuwi.”
8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
Shakapanu kasuntamala kayi, kaweriti kankulemba mlitapaka.
9 And they who heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even to the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
Pawapikaniriti avi, wanja kuwuka yumuyumu, pawalongolera wazewi. Yesu kasigala gweka yakuwi na mdala ulii kagoloka palaa palii.
10 When Jesus had raised himself, and saw none but the woman, he said to her, Woman, where are those thy accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
Yesu kaligolosiya kamkosiyiti mdala ayu, “Wakoshi wantu walii? Hashi kwahera hata yumu yakakutoziti?”
11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
“Kwahera hata yumu!” Mtuwa, kamwankula. Yesu kamgambira, “Iherepa, wala neni nukutozi ndiri. Gugendi zyaku na kwanjira vinu hapeni gutendi vidoda kayi.”
12 Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
Yesu pakayowiriti kayi na Mafalisayu, kawagambira, “Neni ndo Uweru wa pasi panu, yakanizira neni hapeni kagendigendi muntiti nakamu, su hakaweri na Uweru wa ukomu.”
13 The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou barest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true.
Su, Mafalisayu wamgambira, “Gwenga gulilanguziya gamweni, hangu upitawu waku ufaa ndiri.”
14 Jesus answered and said to them, Though I witness concerning myself, yet my witness is true: for I know from where I came, and where I go; but ye cannot tell from where I come, and where I go.
Yesu kawankula, “Hangu ndiri, ata handa nulilanguziya namweni, upitawu wa neni ndo wa nakaka toziya neni nuvimana kwandawiti na kwang'enda. Kumbiti mwenga muvimana ndiri kwandawiti wala kwang'enda.
15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
Mwenga muntoza kwa maholu ga wantu, kumbiti neni ntoza ndiri muntu.
16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
Ata pantoza, kutoza kwaneni ndo kwa nakaka toziya neni nagweka yangu ndiri Tati yakantumiti neni ndo kapamuhera na neni.
17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
Ilembitwi Mumalagaliru genu kwa upitawu wa wantu wawili, shintu shoseri shatutakuliti ndo nakaka.
18 I am one that bear witness concerning myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness concerning me.
Neni nankulilanguziya namweni na Tati yakantumiti, kankunanguziya neni viraa.”
19 Then said they to him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.
Wamkosiya, “Tati gwaku ka koshi?” Yesu kawankula, “Mwenga mumana ndiri neni wala mummana ndiri Tati. Handa memumaniti neni, memumaniti Tati gwangu viraa.”
20 These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
Yesu katakuliti visoweru vyoseri avi kaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu pakwegera na lisanduku lya luhanja palitulitwi, Kwahera muntu yakambatiti, toziya saa yakuwi iweriti hayenisoki.
21 Then said Jesus again to them, I am going away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: where I go, ye cannot come.
Yesu kawagambira kayi, “Hang'endi zyangu, mwenga hamnsakuli, kumbiti hamhowi muvidoda vyenu. Kwang'enda neni, mwenga hapeni mwezi kusoka.”
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Where I go, ye cannot come.
Su, Watuwa Washiyawudi watakula, “Hashi, ina mana hakalilagi mweni? Mbona katakula, Kwang'enda neni mwenga hapeni msoki?”
23 And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Yesu kawagambira, “Mwenga mlawa palaa pasipanu, neni ndawa kumpindi, mwenga ndo mwa wa pasipanu, neni hapeni weri gwa pasipanu.
24 I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
Ayi ndo mana nuwagambireni hamhowi muvidoda vyenu. Na hamhowi muvidoda vyenu handa pamjimira ndiri ‘Neni ndo mweni’.”
25 Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith to them, Even the same that I said to you from the beginning.
Nawomberi wamkosiya, “Gwenga gwa gaa?” Yesu kawankula, “Neni ndo handa vilii nuwagambireni kwanjira mwanzu!
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard from him.
Nana gavuwa ga kutakula kwa mwenga na vya kuwatoza. Kumbiti uliya yakantumiti ndo nakaka, naneni nuwagambira wantu wa pasipanu shitwatira shampikiniriti kulawa kwakuwi.”
27 They understood not that he spoke to them concerning the Father.
Wavimana ndiri handa Yesu kaweriti pakatakula nawomberi kumhusu Tati.
28 Then said Jesus to them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
Su, Yesu kawagambira, “pammalira kala kumubikula Mwana gwa Muntu, panu ndo pamfira kumana handa ‘Neni Ndo mweni’, na handa ndenda ndiri shoseri namweni neni, ira ntakula hera galii Tati gakafunditi.
29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
Yakantumiti kapamuhera naneni, yomberi kandeka ndiri gweka yangu, kwani mashaka goseri ntenditi galii yagamfiriziya.”
30 As he spoke these words, many believed on him.
Wantu wavuwa wampikiniriti Yesu vyakatakuliti wamjimiriti.
31 Then said Jesus to those Jews who believed on him, If ye continue in my word, ye are my disciples indeed;
Yesu kawagambira Wayawudi walii yawamjimiriti, “Handa pamgajimila mafundu gangu hamuweri wafundwa wangu nakaka,
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
hamuumani unakaka na unakaka hawuwapanani ulekeziwu.”
33 They answered him, We are Abraham’s offspring, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
Nawomberi wamwankula, “Twenga ndo walelwa wa Aburahamu, na hatwenipati ng'o kuwera wamanda wa muntu yoseri. Gwana mana gaa kutakula, ‘Hamuweri walekiziwa?’”
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Whoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Yesu kawankula, “Nakaka nuwagambireni, kila muntu yakatenda vidoda ndo mmanda gwa vidoda.
Mmanda hapeni kalikali ukaya kwa mtuwa gwakuwi pamashaka goseri, kumbiti mwana kalikala ukaya mashaka goseri. (aiōn g165)
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Mwana pakawapanana ulekeziwu, hamuweri walekiziwa nakaka.
37 I know that ye are Abraham’s offspring; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
Nuvimana handa mwenga ndo walelwa wa Aburahamu. Ata hangu, mfira kundaga kwa toziya hamjimili ndiri mafundu gangu.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
Neni ntakula galii yakananguziyiti Tati, kumbiti mwenga mtenda galii yakawagambireni Tati gwenu.”
39 They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
Womberi wamwankula, “Twenga ndo twawana gwa Aburahamu!” Yesu kawagambira, “Handa mwenga mwawana wa Aburahamu, memulitendi lihengu lyakatenditi Aburahamu,
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham.
vyoseri avi vyantenditi nuwagambireni unakaka mpikaniriti kulawa kwa Mlungu, ata hangu, mwenga mfira kundaga. Aburahamu katenda hangu ndiri!
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
Mwenga mtenda shitwatira shiraa shilii shakatenditi Tati gwenu.” Womberi wamgambira, “Mlungu mweni ndo Tati gwetu, twenga twawana ndiri wa kunja.”
42 Jesus said to them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
Yesu kawagambira, handa Mlungu kangaweriti Tati gwenu, munganfiriti neni, toziya neni ndawiti kwa Mlungu na vinu napanu. Niza ndiri kwa uwezu wangu namweni, ira yomberi kantumiti.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
Hashi mwerewa ndiri gantakula aga? Ayi ndo toziya mweza ndiri kuwupikanira ujumbi waneni.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Mwenga ndo mwawana wa tati gwenu, Shetani na mufira hera kutenda lumatamata lwa Tati gwenu. Yomberi kaweriti mlaga kwanjira mwanzu, kahera msimamu gwa nakaka, tembera nakaka kwahera mngati mwakuwi. Kila mpayu, zitakulwa kulawirirana na ntambu yakuwi ya munshimba, yomberi ndo mpayu na tati gwa mpayu.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
Kumbiti neni nukugambirani nakaka, toziya ayi hashi munjimira ndiri neni.
46 Which of you convicteth me of sin? And if I speak the truth, why do ye not believe me?
Gani pakati penu yakaweza kulanguziya weri neni nana vidoda? Handa panuwagambira nakaka, kwa shishi munjimira ndiri?
47 He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
Yakalawa kwa Mlungu kapikaniraga visoweru vya Mlungu. Mwenga, mlawa ndiri kwa Mlungu, na ayi ndo toziya ya mwenga kupikinira ndiri.
48 Then answered the Jews, and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?
Wayawudi wamkosiya Yesu, “Hashi, hapeni tutakuli nakaka handa gwenga ndo Msamariya na kayi gwana shamshera?”
49 Jesus answered, I have not a demon; but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me.
Yesu kankula, “Neni nahera shamshera, neni numgohilili Tati gwangu, kumbiti mwenga mgohalira ndiri.
50 And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
Neni nsakula ndiri ligoya lyangu namweni, kumbiti kwana yumu mweni kankusakula ligoya ali, nayomberi ndo mtoza.
51 Verily, verily, I say to you, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
Nakaka nuwagambireni, yakagakola mafundu gangu hapeni kahowi mashaka goseri!” (aiōn g165)
52 Then said the Jews to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man shall keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
Su, Wayawudi wamgambira, “Vinu tuvimana nakaka handa gwenga gwana washamshera! Aburahamu kahowiti na wambuyi wa Mlungu viraa wahowiti, nagwenga gutakula eti, ‘Yakajimira ujumbi waku hakalikali mashaka goseri!’ (aiōn g165)
53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
Tati gwetu Aburahamu kahowa, hashi gulitenda gwamkulu kuliku tati gwetu Aburahamu, ndo gwenga? Ata wambuyi wa Mlungu wahowiti. Hashi gwenga gulitenda gwa gaa?”
54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
Yesu kawankula, “Panilikwisa namweni, uweru wangu shintu ndiri. Yumu yakankwisa ndo Tati gwangu, kila muntu katakula Mlungu gwetu.
55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
Mwenga hapeni mpati kummana, kumbiti neni nummana. Na, pantankula nummana ndiri, hanuwi mpayu gambira mwenga. Kumbiti neni nummana na njimira shisoweru shakuwi.
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
Tati gwetu Aburahamu, kanemeleriti pakaliwoni lishaka lyangu na yomberi kaliwoniti, kanemelera.”
57 Then said the Jews to him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
Su, Wayawudi wamgambira, “Gwenga gwankali kusoka vinja lilongu muhanu, nagwenga gumwona Aburahamu?”
58 Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Yesu kawagambira, “Nakaka nuwagambirani, pamberi Aburahamu kangali kwiwuka, ndo Neni.”
59 Then they took up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
Panu wasola mabuwi wamgumangi yomberi, kumbiti Yesu kalififa, kalawa Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu.
