John 6
1 After this Jesus went away across the Lake of Galilee (that is, the Lake of Tiberias).
Ni kogon biyi, Yesu rugran ba-ne Galili iwa ba yo ndji mba-ne Tibaniya.
2 A vast multitude followed Him, because they witnessed the miracles on the sick which He was constantly performing.
Gbirjubu ndji gbugbuu ba lu ni hu ni kpe wa asi tie'a ni bi lilo ba.
3 Then Jesus went up the hill, and sat there with His disciples.
Yesu lu hon hi ka son ni tu ngbulu ba-ba almajeran ma.
4 The Jewish Festival, the Passover, was at hand.
(Gan ri igan idin u za gran igan Yahudawa a te whir).
5 And when He looked round and saw an immense crowd coming towards Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread for all these people to eat?"
Yesu zun tu hon na toh gbugbu ndji ba gyen klan si ye niwu na hla ni filibu, “ni tsen ki fe bredi, wa ki no indji biyi?”
6 He said this to put Philip to the test, for He Himself knew what He was going to do.
(A tre naki na tsar to ni tu iwa wawu me a toh ikpe iwa ani tie.)
7 "Seven pounds' worth of bread," replied Philip, "is not enough for them all to get even a scanty meal."
Filibu ka ha sa niwu “bredi dena rii deri hari me ana zrani ndji fie fie me na.”
8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,
Iri ni mi Almajere ma Andarawus, vayi siman Bitrus, hla ni Yesu,
9 "There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish: but what is that among so many?"
Ige Ivren ri a nji igbele ton u shai'ir ni lambe hari. a geri iwa yi ni tie ni gbugbu indji bi yi?”
10 "Make the people sit down," said Jesus. The ground was covered with thick grass; so they sat down, the adult men numbering about 5,000.
Yesu tre ndu indji kuson.” (Bubu'a me a tie gega.) U lilon ba ba kusun, tsra indji dubu ton.
11 Then Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks He distributed them to those who were resting on the ground; and also the fish in like manner--as much as they desired.
U Yesu a ban bredi ni kogon wa, a gira na ga bi wa ba kusun meme na la ga lambe naki, na wa ba ba son.
12 When all were fully satisfied, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the broken portions that remain over, so that nothing be lost."
Niwa indji ba-ba whurji wa hla ni almajere ma, “ni ndu ba vu gburugbuma iwa a don ba shutie, ni ndu na tie meme na (asara na).”
13 Accordingly they gathered them up; and with the fragments of the five barley loaves--the broken portions that remained over after they had done eating--they filled twelve baskets.
U ba vu shu ni sisen wulon don hari gburugbu bredi u sisen iton wa ba don mbru ma, ni kogon wa bari whrji.
14 Thereupon the people, having seen the miracle He had performed, said, "This is indeed the Prophet who was to come into the world."
U indji ba toh gban iwa a tie, u ba tre, “A njanji iwa yi ahi anabin iwa ani ye ni gbungbunluyi.”
15 Perceiving, however, that they were about to come and carry Him off by force to make Him a king, Jesus withdrew again up the hill alone by Himself.
U Yesu toh ndi ba lu ni ye ban wuni gbengbenle na nye-wu tie Ichu, na lu k'ban hi ni tu gbulu kima.
16 When evening came on, His disciples went down to the Lake.
U yalu tie almajere ma ba lu grji hi ni teku.
17 There they got on board a boat, and pushed off to cross the Lake to Capernaum. By this time it had become dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them.
Na ri ni mi ghu, na rugran hi ni Kafarnahum, (ni ton wa ibwu tie ye, Yesu na ye ni ba rina.)
18 The Lake also was getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing.
Gyugyu ri u gbengbenle ma u njanji ni rhi, teku ni lu ni kinkir.
19 When, however, they had rowed three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the water and coming near the boat.
Nikogon wa ba dran ghu hi na mil ashiri don ton ko talatin, u ba kushi ni Yesu a zren nitu teku siye na te whiwhir ni jirgi'a, u ba ti sisir.
20 They were terrified; but He called to them. "It is I," He said, "do not be afraid."
Iwa hla ni ba wu, ahi me, na tisisir na.”
21 Then they were willing to take Him on board; and in a moment the boat reached the shore at the point to which they were going.
Niki u ba kpayenmen na kpa ni jirgi'a, hihari me jirgi ka ri ni gacci (bubu u jundi zi'a).
22 Next morning the crowd who were still standing about on the other side of the Lake found that there had been but one small boat there, and they had seen that Jesus did not go on board with His disciples, but that His disciples went away without Him.
Ni ivi u ha ibrun klan ndi wa ba krhi ni gran teku ni korima ba tra andi jirgi ri na la don gan na niki se iri, iwa ndi Yesu na ri hu almajeran ma na u ba luhi ni grji ba.
23 Yet a number of small boats came from Tiberias to the neighbourhood of the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
Se jirgi bari wa ba rji ni Tibariya whiewhir ni bubu wa indi ba son na tan gurasa ni kogon wa Yesu a ngiri'a.
24 When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum to look for Jesus.
Niwa indji ba ye toh andi Yesu ni almajaren ma ba he ni ba niki na, ni tie tu mba ba lu ri ni mi jirgi ba na hi ni Kafarnahum ni wa Yesu.
25 So when they had crossed the Lake and had found Him, they asked Him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"
Na ka toh ni gran teku'a, na miyen “Mallam, anitan mba u ye ni wayi?”
26 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that you are searching for me not because you have seen miracles, but because you ate the loaves and had a hearty meal.
Yesu a sa ni bawu andi, “Njanji, bi si wame yi, ana ni tu wa bi toh igban ikpe wa mi tie'a ni ye na, a nitu wa bi tan gurasar ni wherji.
27 Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes, but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages--that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you; for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal." (aiōnios g166)
Ban chuwo ni tie kpabi ya ni bubu wa biri wa ani tie meme na, se bi ka wa biri iwa ani son kubon na nji yi hi ni viri (re) u tunturu iwa vren ndi ni no yin'a. (aiōnios g166)
28 "What are we to do," they asked, "in order to carry out the things that God requires?"
Bika miyen, “ahi geri ki tie iwa ani hu son u Rji'a?
29 "This," replied Jesus, "is above all the thing that God requires--that you should be believers in Him whom He has sent."
Yesu sa ni bawu, “iwa yi a hi ndu Rji, ni ndu yi kpayenmen ni indi iwa a ton'a.
30 "What miracle then," they asked, "do you perform for us to see and become believers in you? What do you do?
U ba miyen, “ahi nkpan geri u tie, ni ndu ta toh, u ni kpayenmen ni wu'a?
31 Our forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, as it is written, 'He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat'."
Ahi geri u tie? Ba tietie-mbu ba tan manna ni miji nawa ba nhan, “Iwa no ba gurasar rji ni shu ni ndu ba tan.'”
32 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that Moses did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but my Father is giving you the bread--the true bread--out of Heaven.
Yesu hla ni bawu, “Njanji, mi si hla ni yiwu, ana Musa yi noyi gurasar rji ni shuna ahi Itie mu mba a no yi gurasar u njanji rji ni shulu.
33 For God's bread is that which comes down out of Heaven and gives Life to the world."
Gurasar u Rji ani krji rji ni shu na no iviri ni gbungbulu'a.”
34 "Sir," they said, "always give us that bread."
U ba hla niwu, “mallam, ta nota gurasar bi kima ko ni ton rime.”
35 "I am the bread of Life," replied Jesus; "he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never, never thirst.
Yesu hla ni bawu, ahi meyi mi gurasar iwa ani ano iviri (re) indji wa a ye ni me iyon na tiwu na, indji wa a kpa yenmen ni me hlan ma nala tie wu gana.
36 But it is as I have said to you: you have seen me and yet you do not believe.
Ndi mi hla ni yiwu, njanji bi toh me, naki me bina kpayenmen na.
37 Every one whom the Father gives me will come to me, and him who comes to me I will never on any account drive away.
Indji wa Itie a ne niwu'a ani ye nime, iwa a ye nimea mina zu menmelen mu na.
38 For I have left Heaven and have come down to earth not to seek my own pleasure, but to do the will of Him who sent me.
Mina grji rji ni shu ye, nitu mi tie ikpe iwa me son ki mu na, se de ikpe u son Indji iwa a ton Me.
39 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that of all that He has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it to life on the last day.
A hi wa yiyi ikpe u son indji wa a ton me, ni ndu mina wa kperi hanma ni mi biyina niwa ani se mika taba shimen ni vi u klakla'a.
40 For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day." (aiōnios g166)
Ahi wayi, i ahi son Itiemu, ndi indji iwa a toh vren na kpayenmen wu ani fe viri u son kuk'bon. Ime ni tashimen ni vi u klakla'a. (aiōnios g166)
41 Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.
Yahudawa balu ni chaba gburgbu ni tuma, nitu iwa atra, “Ahi meyi mi Gurasar iwa grji ni shu'a.
42 They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, 'I have come down out of Heaven'?"
Ba tre ana wayi, i ahi Yesu Ivren Yusufu, iwa Itima ni Iyima wa ki toh ba na? A ni he ri zizan ani tre andi mi grji rji ni shu?
43 "Do not thus find fault among yourselves," replied Jesus;
Yesu hla ni bawu, “Ba chuwo ni chaba mlama ni kpabi.
44 "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; then I will raise him to life on the last day.
Ba iri iwa ani ya ye ni me, se Iti mu wa a ton me ye a njiwu ye, mit tawu shimechachu u kekle.
45 It stands written in the Prophets, 'And they shall all of them be taught by God'. Every one who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes to me.
Ba nha nyi nha zi ni mi littatafe ana bawa andi, wawu mbawu Irji Bachi ni tsoro ba, u indji wa a wo ni tie, ani ye ni me.
46 No one has ever seen the Father--except Him who is from God. He has seen the Father.
Niwa idiori ti bre to ni tie'ana, se wawu iwa a rji ni Bachi - a to Bachi.
Njanji, njanji, indji wa a kpawu nyeme ahe ni iviri u tuntru. (aiōnios g166)
48 I am the bread of Life.
Ihe me nyi mi bredi u viri.
49 Your forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, and they died.
Ba ti bi ba ri mana ni miji, na kwu.
50 Here is the bread that comes down out of Heaven that a man may eat it and not die.
I wa nyi ahi bredi u wa a grji rji ni shu ndi indji wa a ri ngbala ma wa ka na kwu na.
51 I am the living bread come down out of Heaven. If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever. Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given for the life of the world." (aiōn g165)
Ime nyi mi gurasa u re (iviri) wa a grji rji ni shu. Indji iwa a ri ni mi gurasa, ani son hi tuntru gurasa yi wa mi no ahi kpamu nitu kpa gbungbulu chu wo.” (aiōn g165)
52 This led to an angry debate among the Jews. "How can this man," they argued, "give us his flesh to eat?"
Yahudawa ba tifu nimi mba na ni sen nyu ni kpamba'a andi ani he iguyi ani ya nota inan ma kpama ki tan?
53 "In most solemn truth I tell you," said Jesus, "that unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no Life in you.
U Yesu hla bawu, “Njanji, njanji, bita na tan inanma kpa ivren indji na ni nan so iyin mana, bi na fe iviri ni mi bina.
54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has the Life of the Ages, and I will raise him up on the last day. (aiōnios g166)
Indji iwa a tan nanma mu na so inyi mu ani Iviri tuntru, mila zun lude ni ivi u kekle. (aiōnios g166)
55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
A hla bawu, “Ikisa mi nhla ni yiwu. Nitu inanma mu ahi biri u njanji, iyi mu me ahi ikpe u so u njanji.
56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me, and I remain in union with him.
Indji iwa a tan nanma mu, na so iyi mu a son ni mi mu, imeme mi son niwu.
57 As the ever-living Father has sent me, and I live because of the Father, so also he who eats me will live because of me.
Na wa itimbu u iviri a ton me, naki mi zren na ti'a, ana ki indji iwa a tan nmma mu, ani son nitu mu.
58 This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike that which your forefathers ate--for they ate and yet died. He who eats this bread shall live for ever." (aiōn g165)
Iwa yi ahi gurasa iwa a grji rji ni shulu, ana iri u ba tibi wa ba tan na kwu na, indji iwa a tan gurasa ani son tuntru.” (aiōn g165)
59 Jesus said all this in the synagogue while teaching at Capernaum.
Yesu hla kpi biyi ni mi ma, njamiya niwa a si tsoro ba ni Kafarnahum.
60 Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard it, said, "This is hard to accept. Who can listen to such teaching?"
Ni wo naki, gbugbuwu ni mi almajaranma ba tre, itre yi a hi ni krifi, i he nha ani ya wo wu?”
61 But, knowing in Himself that His disciples were dissatisfied about it, Jesus asked them,
Yesu ato ni mi soron ma andi almajereanma, basi chabangbu ru ngbu kima, na miyen ba, “Iwa yi kati lahtre?
62 "Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?
Ani he nihe bi ti to ivren indji ni hon ni hi ni bubuma u sen na?
63 It is the spirit which gives Life. The flesh confers no benefit whatever. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and are Life.
Ruhu ni iviri, ikpa na ti kperi na. Ahi tre wa mi tre ni yiwu hi Ruhu, u ba ivri.
64 But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.
Ni naki bari mbi ni wayi bana kpa nyime na.” U Yesu toh rji ni mumla'a wawu biwa bana kpa nyime na nda toh ndji wa ani ka'u no dun ba wu'u.
65 So He added, "That is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it be granted him by the Father."
A hla ndi, “A nitu kii mba mi hla ni yiwu ndi ndrjo ri na ye nime na se to Bachi mu no'u nkon dun ye nime.”
66 Thereupon many of His disciples left Him and went away, and no longer associated with Him.
Ni kogon kima, gbugbuu ba k'ban hi ni kogon nimi almajanre ma, bati bre hla zren ni wu ngana.
67 Jesus therefore appealed to the Twelve. "Will you go also?" He asked.
Yesu minye wulon don hari ba, biyi bi na son hi na, ka nan nakina?
68 "Master," replied Simon Peter, "to whom shall we go? Your teachings tell us of the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
Bitrus a sa niwu, iwu timbu, ni nha ki hi niwu? Iwu nyi u he ni itre re (ivir) son hi tuntru. (aiōnios g166)
69 And we have come to believe and know that you are indeed the Holy One of God."
Kita ki to ni kpanyeme iwu yi u tsatsra ichu u Rji.”
70 "Did not I choose you--the Twelve?" said Jesus, "and even of you one is a devil."
Yesu hla bawu, “Ana me mi chu yi na, biyi wulon don hari na, iri ni mi bi ani ahi ibirji?”
71 He alluded to Judas, the son of Simon the Iscariot. For he it was who, though one of the Twelve, was afterwards to betray Him.
Asi tre ni Yahuda vivren Siman Iskariyoti, a hi ri ni mi wulon don hari ba, iwa ani ka yesu noba'a.
