Yanisa Mishiracho 8
1 Hesafe guye Yesussay debrrezaytte bidees.
But Jesus went [with us disciples] to Olive [Tree] Hill [and we stayed near there that night].
2 Wontteththa gaalas malado wonttara xoossa keeth simmii yidess, dereyka wuri izakko yiin izi uttdii istta tammariso oykides.
Early the next morning, we returned to the Temple [courtyard]. Many people gathered around Jesus, so he sat down to teach them.
3 Musse woga tammarisizaytine Parssawet issi laymatethan oyketda maccashsh dizaro eeki yidi dere sinththan eesida.
Then men who taught the [Jewish] laws and some of [SYN] the Pharisee [religious group] brought a woman to him. She was seized {[They] had [arranged to] seize her} while she was having sex with a man who was not her husband. They made her stand up in front of the group [that was listening to Jesus].
4 Yesussayka hizzgdes “Asttamare! heko hana maccashshaya laymatashe oykistadus.”
Then they said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was seized {[we] seized this woman} while she was having sex with a man who is not her husband.
5 Hani mala maccashi shuchchan cadista hayqana mala mussey nu wogan nuna azazides, nech? hani gish ay gay?
Moses commanded us in the laws that [he gave us] that we should throw stones at such women [and kill them]. So what do you say [we should do]?”
6 Istt iza hessa giday iza bolla mottos gidiza gasoo demanasine iza paccana koyda gishshasa, gido attin Yesussay hokkdi biita bolla ba biradhera xaafoo oykdes.
They asked this question as a trap so that they could accuse him. [If he said that they should not kill her, they would shame him for disobeying the law of Moses. If he said that they should kill her, they could accuse him to the Roman governor]. But Jesus bent down and wrote something on the ground with his finger.
7 Istt iza shir shir oychchin dhoqu gidi “inte giddofe nagaray bayndda urray koyro shuchchu izi bolla halo” gides.
While they continued to question him, he stood up and said to them, “Whichever one of you has never sinned can be the first one to start throwing stones at her.”
8 hessafe qasseka hokidi biita bolla xaafides.
Then he stooped down and wrote [some more] on the ground.
9 Isttika hessa siydii cmatape oykkdi wurkka isay isay bi kichchida, hessa gish Yesussay hen eqqida maccashshayra xaala attdes.
After they heard what he said, those [who were questioning him] went away, one by one, the older ones first [and then the younger ones, knowing they were all sinners]. Finally only Jesus was there, along with the woman.
10 Hesafe Yesussay dhoqu gidi “hane maccashshaye nena mottizayt awan dizo? ne bolla pirdadey oonikka baye?” gides.
Jesus stood up and asked her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one said you must die for your sin?”
11 Izaka “Godo oonikka baawa.” gadus. Yesussayka “taka ne bolla pirdike, ba! Namm7enththo nagara oosofa.” gides.
She said, “No, sir, no one.” Then Jesus said, “I do not condemn you either. Go [home] now, and do not continue your sinful [life] any longer!”]
12 qasse Yesussay “ta derey poo7o, tana kaallizadey wuri deyoo poo7o demmana, dhuman simerettena.” gidi isttas yootdes.
Jesus spoke to the people again. He said, “I am [like] a light [MET] for [all the people in] [MTY] the world. [Just like a light reveals what has been in the darkness] [MET], [I reveal God’s truth to them]. Those who walk in the darkness [are unaware of what is around them]. But those who become my disciples will always be aware [of God’s truth] [MET]. They will have my light [which shows them how to have eternal] life.”
13 Parssawet “nenii ne gish markkatasa, ne markkaay tummu gideena” gida.
So the Pharisees said to him, “You are just telling about yourself! [Since there is no one else to verify these things that you say about yourself], [we] do not [need to accept that] what you say is true.”
14 Yesussayka isttas hizzgi zaarides “ta ta gish ay markkatkoka ta awape ydakoone qasse ta awa banakoone ta erriza gish ta markkateth tummako, inte gidikko ta awape ydakoone qasse awa banakoone inte erreketta.
Jesus replied, “Even if I were the [only one to] say these things about myself, what I say is true, because I know that I came from [heaven], and I know that I am going [back to heaven]. But you do not know where I came from or where I am going.
15 Inte ashsho qoofa mala pirdista, ta gidiiko oonna bollaka pirdike.
You judge people according to human standards. [The reason] that I am [here is] not (to condemn people/to say that I will punish people) [for their sins].
16 Ta pirdikkoka ta pirday tummu pirda, gasooyka ta tarkka pirdike, tana kittda ta aawayka tanara dess.
But if I did judge [people], what I decided would be correct, because I am not the [only] one [who will decide those things]. I and the one who sent me will both decide.
17 Namm7u asatta markkay tummu gididays inte wogan xaafetdes.
It is written {[Moses] wrote} in your law that if [at least] two people testify that [some event has happened], [people should consider] that what they say is true.
18 Hessa gish tan ta gish markkatays, tana kittda ta aawayka tasi markktes.”
I am telling you about myself, and the other one who is telling you about me is [my] Father who sent me. [So you should believe that what we declare is true].”
19 Isttika “ne aaway awan dizee?” gidi iza oychchida, Yesussayka isttas “tana gidiin ta aawaka gidiin inte errekista, inte tana errizakoo ta aawaka errannakoshin” gidi isttas zardess.
Then they asked him, “[If you have a] father whom [we can question about you], where is he?” Jesus replied, “You do not know [who] I [really am]. If you knew who I [really am], you would know who my Father is also.”
20 Yesussay hessa isttas yootday Xoossa keethth gibben mishshe woththiza saxxine achchan tammarssishshe yootdes, shin izas oykeettza wodey gakontta gish oonnika iza oykiibeyna.
He said these things when he was in the Temple [courtyard], near the place where the people put their offerings. [This was also very close to the place where the Jewish council met]. But no one seized him to arrest him, because it was not yet time [MTY] [for him to suffer and die].
21 Yesussay qasseka “ta bana shin inte tana koyanane inte inte nagarara hayqana attin ta bizaso bana danddaekista” gides.
Jesus also said to them, “I [will soon be] going away. Then [at the end of your life] you will seek me, but you will die [without God forgiving] your sins. Where I will go, you will not be able to come.”
22 Ayhudatika ba garssan isay isara izi “(ta bizaso inte yana danddaekista) gizay berkka bena woodhanasesha?” geetetda.
So the Jewish [leaders] said among themselves, “Is he going to kill himself? Is that the reason that he said, ‘Where I go, you will not be able to come’?”
23 Izi qasse istta hizzgdes “inte garssa asa, tan bolla asa, inte hayssa allamee asa, tani ha allamepe gidkke.
But Jesus continued by saying to them, “You were born here in this world, but I came from heaven. You belong to those who are opposed to God [MTY]. I do not belong to them.
24 Inte ta oonnakone erridi ammanontta aggiko inte inte nagarara hayqqana gish ta inte! Inte nagarara hayqqana giday hessa gishshaskko.”
I told you that you will die [without God forgiving] your sins. If you do not believe that I am [who I say that I am], you will die [without God forgiving] your sins.”
25 Isttika iza “ne oonne?” Gida, Yesussayka isttas hizzgdes “hai gaakanas ta isttes iza gish yootzadey tanakko.
So they said to him, “You! Who do you think you are?” Jesus said to them, “Ever since I began [teaching], I have been telling you who I am!
26 Ta inte bolla hasaizaysine pirdza yooy daroy dees, gido attin tana kittiddadey ammanetdade, taka izape siydaysa ha allamezas yootays.”
I could judge you and say that [you are guilty of] many things. But instead, [I will say only] what the one who sent me tells me to say. [What he says] is true, and I tell the people in the world [MTY] what I have heard from him.”
27 Izi isttas aawa gish yootzaysa akeki beytena.
They did not understand that he was talking about his Father [in heaven].
28 Hesa gish yesussay “inte asa na dhoqu hisittd kaqqida wode he ta gidaddey tana gididaysa inte errana, aaway tana tammarssidaysa yootads attin tan ta sheene mala aykoka oosonttaysa inte akekana.
So Jesus said, “I am the one who came down from heaven, but when you lift me up [on a cross to kill me], you will know who I am. You will also know that I do not do anything with my own [authority]. Instead, I say just what [my] Father has taught me.
29 tana kittdayssi izi tanara dees, ay wodekka ta uhaaththaayzaz ooththiiza gish izi tana xaala yeegi aggibeyna” gidees.
He is the one who sent me, and he helps me. Because I always do the things that please him, he has never abandoned me.”
30 Izi hessa yootda mala daroo asay izan ammanidees.
As Jesus was saying these things, many people believed that he [was] ([from God/the Messiah]).
31 Yesussay bena ammanida ayhudata hizzgdes “inte tummu ta qaalan dikko inte tummupe tana kaallizayta gidana.
Then Jesus said to the Jews who now said they believed in him, “If you continue to [live in accordance with] my message, you will truly be my disciples.
32 Tummay azakkone inte erranane tummayka intena geshshana.”
Then you will know [God’s] truth, and as a result of [your believing his] truth, he [PRS] will free you [from being controlled by the one who has made you his slaves].”
33 Isttika izas zaaridi “nuni Abbrame naytako, nu oonasiika aylleet erroko, histtiin ne nuna waanada inte wozistana gazi?” gida.
They replied to him, “We are descendants of Abraham. We have never been anyone’s slaves. So why do you say [we will] be freed [from being someone’s slaves]?”
34 Yesussayka isttas hizzgdes “ta intes tummu gays nagara ooththizadey wuri nagaras aylle.
Jesus replied, “Listen carefully to what I am going to tell you. All those who continue to sin are [forced to obey] their sinful desires [MET], [just like] a slave [is forced to obey his master].
A slave is not a permanent member of a family. But a son is a member of a family forever. [Similarly, you say you are members of God’s family because you are descendants of Abraham, but really, because you are like slaves of your sinful desires, you are no longer permanent members of God’s family]. (aiōn g165)
36 Histtko nazi intena wozikko inte wozettidayta gidana.
So if you allow me to free you, you will truly be free.
37 Inte Abbramee nayta gididdaysa ta errays, gido attin ta qaala inte erroo gi ekkoontta gish tana wodhanas koyista.
I know that you are Abraham’s descendants. But you are trying to kill me because [you are not] allowing [PRS] my message to continue [to change] your inner being.
38 Tan ta aawa achchan be7idaysa ta intes yootays, inte qasse inte aawape siydaysa ooththista.”
I am telling you what I saw when I was with [my] Father. But you do the things that you have heard from your father.”
39 Isttikka izas “nu aaway Abbrameeko” gidi zari yootin Yesussay isttas hizzgdes “inte Abbramee na giddiko Abbrameetho ooththana shin.
They replied to him, “Abraham is our ancestor.” Jesus said to them, “If you were Abraham’s descendants, [your character would be like Abraham’s character, and] you would do [good] things like Abraham did.
40 Ta Xoossafe siyda tumma intes yootin tana wodhanas qaachch denddidista, gido attin Abbrameey hessaththo ooththibeyna.
I have been telling you the truth that I heard from God, but you are trying to kill me. Abraham did not do things like that.
41 “Inte inte aawatho ooththista” isttika zaaridii “nu laymman yeeletida na gidoko, nu aaway issi Xoossa xaala” gidi izas zaarida.
No! You are doing the things that your [real] father does.” They said to him, “[We do not know about you, but] we are not illegitimate children. And [spiritually], we have only one Father. That is God, and you do not know who your father is!”
42 Yesussay isttas hizzgdes “inte aaway Xoossa gididakoo taka Xoossafe keza yida gish inte tana dosanakko shin tana izi kittdes attin ta tarkka ta sheenen yabeykke.
Jesus said to them, “If God were your father, you would love me, because I came from God, and now I have come here [to this world]. My coming was not (because I [appointed] myself/with my own [authority]). He sent me.
43 Ta yootzaysa ays yuushi qoopeket? gasooyka inte ta qaala siyana koyontta gishshaskko.
(And I will tell you why you do not understand what I say./Do you know why you do not understand what I say?) [RHQ] It is because you do not want to accept my message.
44 Inteni inte aawa xalae nayta, inte aawa ammo polana koyista, izi kasseka shemppo wodhidadee, iza achchan tummay dena gish izi tumman eqiibeyna, izi ba huess wordanchane wordo aawa gidida gish izi wordo hasa7e beepe medhi ekkidi hasaees.
You belong to your father, (the devil/Satan), and you desire to do what he wants. He has [caused people to become] murderers from the time when [people] first [sinned]. He has abandoned [God’s] truth because he is a liar by his nature. Whenever he lies, he is speaking according to his [nature], because he is a liar and is the one who originates [MET] all lies.
45 Ta qasse tummu hasaiza gish inte tana ammanekista.
But because I tell you the truth, you do not believe me!
46 Inte garssafe tana ne hano nagara ooththadasa gidi markkara laathanas moottana danddaizadey dizee? ta tummu hasaizade gidiko histtin aazas tana ammaneket?
[Since I have never sinned], (none of you can show that I have sinned./can anyone among you show that I have sinned?) [RHQ] So, since I tell you the truth, (there is no good reason for your not believing me!/why is it that you do not believe me?) [RHQ]
47 Xoossafe gidida uuray Xoossi giza siyes, inte gidiko Xoossafe gidontta gish xoossa qaala siyekista.”
Those who belong to God habitually obey God’s message. You do not belong to God, so you do not obey his message.”
48 Ayhudatika zaaridi “nu nena ne Sammaryya asa, ne bolla daydanthth dees gooys tummu gideene?” gida.
The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] replied to him, “(We are certainly right by saying that you [believe what is false as] the Samaritans [do]!/Are we not right by saying that you [believe what is false as] the Samaritans [do]?) [RHQ] And that (a demon/an evil spirit) [controls] you!”
49 Yesussay isttas hizzg zaarides. “tani ta aawa bonchays attin daydanththi ta bolla baawa, inte gidiko tana kawushshista.
Jesus replied, “A demon does not [control] me! I honor my Father, and you do not honor me!
50 Tan tas boncho koyke, ta bonchetena mala koyzadey qasse dees, izika pirda pirdanadeko.
I am not trying to honor myself. There is someone else who desires [to honor me], and he is the one who will judge [whether it is I who am telling the truth or whether it is you who are telling the truth].
But the truth is that anyone who obeys what I say will never die!” (aiōn g165)
52 Ayhudat iza hizzggda. “ne bolla daydanththii dizayysa hai nuni errdees, Abrrameyy hayqqdees, nabetika izatho hayqqda, ne qasse ooniko muleka hayqqoo beeyena ga yootassa. (aiōn g165)
Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], [thinking that he was talking about ordinary death and not about spiritual death], said to him, “Now we are sure that a demon [controls] you! Abraham and the prophets died [long ago]! But you say that anyone who obeys what you teach will never die! (aiōn g165)
53 Ne nu aawa Abrramepe adhaz? izi hayqqdees, nabettka hayqqda histtin ne nena oonna gaana koyadii?
(You are certainly not greater than our ancestor Abraham!/Do you think you are greater than our ancestor Abraham?) [RHQ] He died, and all the prophets died, so who do you think you are [by saying something like that]?”
54 Yesussayka isttas hizzgdees “ta tarkka tana bonchiko ta bonchoy hada, tana bonchizadey gidiko inte “izi nu Xoossa” gizzay ta aawako.
Jesus replied, “If I were honoring myself, that would be worthless. My Father is the one who you say is your God. He is the one who honors me.
55 inte iza errontta aggikoka ta qasse errays, ta iza errike giikoo, taka inte mala wordancha gidays. ta qasse iza errayss, iza qaalaka naagays.
Although you do not know him, I know him [and have a close relationship with him]. If I said that I did not know him, I would be a liar like you are. But I know him, and I obey what he says.
56 inte aawa Abrramey ta galas beeyanas ammotid beeydeesine uhaaththaaettidees.
Your ancestor Abraham was happy when he thought about what I would [do during] my life [MTY]. [It was as though] he saw that, and was happy.”
57 Ayhudatii qasse “ness buroo ichchachu tammu layth kummontta ne abrrame beeyadi? gida.
Then the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] said to him, “You are not 50 years old yet! So (you certainly did not see him!/how could you have seen him?) [RHQ] [Because he died long ago]!”
58 Yesussayka “ta intes tummu gays, Abrramey yellettanape kase tani tanako.” gides.
Jesus said to them, “The truth is that I existed before Abraham was born!”
59 ayhudat heraka iza caddanas wuri shuchchu denththida. gido attin Yesussay istta matape qotetidii xoossa keethafe kezi bides.
So, [because they were very angry about Jesus thus saying that he] ([had eternally existed/was equal with God]), they picked up stones to throw at him [to kill him]. But [Jesus] caused them not to be able to see him, and he left the Temple courtyard.
