Yanisa Mishiracho 1
1 Qaalay kasse koyro dees. Qallakka Xoossa achan dees. He qalaaykka Xoossa.
In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with God, and the WORD was God.
2 Izee koyro Xoossa achchan dees.
He was in the beginning with God.
3 Medheteththi wurii izann medhetdes. Medhettdazan izi baynda medhetiday isiinaka dukku.
All things were made by him, and without him not one thing was made that now exists.
4 Deyooy ezann deyssu. hana deyooya asas poo7.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 Poo77y dhumaan poo7ses. dhumayy poo7 muleeka xonena.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness comprehends it not.
6 Xoossafe kiitetda Yanissa getettiza isadeey dess.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Iza markkatithaan asi wurii amanna malla Po77s markka giddii yidess.
This man came as a witness, to testify of the Light, that all through him might believe.
8 Izi poo7o gish markatana yides atiin izi ba hues po7o gidena.
He was not the Light; but he came to testify of the Light.
9 Asa wursoos po7o imiiza tumu poo7oy hayssa ha alamezan yusan dess.
He was the true Light, which, coming into the world, gives light to every man.
10 Qaalayka kase alamen dess. almeykka medhetdday izana. Gido atin alameey iza erribeeyna.
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 Izi ba bagtako yiin iza bagaty iza ekiibetena.
He came to his own country, and his own people received him not.
12 Gido attin iza ekdaytii iza sunesaa amaniddayta isti xossa naytia gidana maata isstass iimdess.
But as many as received him, to them he gave the privilege of becoming the children of God, even to those who believe on his name;
13 Isttikka xossa nayta gididay xoossafe yelettida gish attin asa zeerethafe heskka asa wogan woykko asho shenen gidena.
who were begotten, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Qaallayka ass giddies, Xossa kiyatethinne tumann kumidii nunaan aqqides, Isi nass awa matan diza bonchoo milatza iza booncho nu beydos.
And the WORD became flesh, and tabernacled among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, ) full of grace and of truth.
15 Yanssaykka “tappe guyera yizaysi tafe adhees, gasooyka izi tape kaseka dess gada ta intees yotidaysi hekoo haysi izako” gii matatidess.
John testified of him, and cried, saying: This is he of whom I said: He that comes after me, is now before me, for he existed before me.
16 Iza kumetha kiyatethan nu wuri keyatetha bolla kiyateth ekkidos.
And from his fullness have we all received, even grace for grace;
17 Wogay musse baggara immetidas, kiyatethine tumay gidiikoo Yesuss Kirsitosa baggara nusii yidess.
for the law was given through Moses, but the grace and the truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 Xooss beyedaye oonnkka bawa, gido attin Xossa aawa matan diza xoossa na xoossay issay xalala iza qonccissidess.
No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has revealed him.
19 Ayhudata dannatii Yerusalamappe qeessistane Lewe nayetta Yanssakoo kitidii “ne oonee?” gidi oychchishin,
And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him: Who are you?
20 Yanssay “tani Kiristtosa gidikee” gidi geshshi markkatides attin markkatanas ixxibeyna.
And he confessed, and did not deny; and he confessed: I am not the Christ.
21 Isttika “histtine ne oonne? ne Elassa? gidi oychchida, izki gidike” gidi isttas zaaridess, Isttika “izi yana kittetida nabey nene?” gida. izika “akaye tana gidke” gidas.
And they asked him: What then? Are you Elijah? And he said: I am not. Are you the prophet? And he answered: No.
22 Istii qaas “histin ne onee? nuna kitda asas nu yotanamalla ne nena ona gay?” gida.
They then said to him: Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what say you of yourself?
23 Izika “nabe Isayasay yootidaysa mala tani xoossa ogge suriistte gishe bazoo biitann wasiizade qalla girethth” gidess.
He said: I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord; as said the prophet Isaiah.
24 parssawistappe kittettda issi issi asati
And those who were sent were of the Pharisees;
25 Hesa gish “ne Xoossi kittidade woykko buroo yana getetida nabaye nene gidontta gidikoo hstiin azaas nuna xmaqqazi?” gidii iza oychchida.
and they asked him, and said to him: Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?
26 Yanssaykka istasi hzgidass “ta haththn xamaqqays gido atiin inte eroontadey inte giddon eqqides.
John answered them, saying: I immerse in water; but there stands one among you whom you know not.
27 Tappe guyera yanaysi iza, ta iza ccama qachcho birshanass besizade gidikke.
He it is, who, though he comes after me, is now before me; the strap of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.
28 Haysi wuri haniday Yanssay xamiqqiza Yordanosse shshafappe he pinththan diza Biitaniyaa getetiza katamana. Biitaniyay
These things were done in Bethany, beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing.
29 “Wonteththa glass Yanissay Yasussay beeko yishshin beydi (deree nagara biitappe digana Xoossa doorssay hekko hysichchi!
The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said: Behold the Lamb of God, that takes away the sin of the world.
30 Tapee guyerra yanayysi izi tappe kassekka diza gish tappe adhdhess) gada ta intess yotizzay haysichch!
This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man who is now before me, for he existed before me.
31 Takaa ta bagaraa iza eraabeyke shin gidikooka izi Isra7ele deress qonchnamala ta haththan xxamaqashshe yadiss.”
And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, for this reason I have come immersing in water.
32 Kaleththidika Yanissayy hizgi markatidess. “Xiiloo Ayanay woole kafoo milattdii salopee woodhishshinne iza bolla uttshin beyadiss.
And John testified, saying: I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him.
33 Ta tabagara iza eriike shin ta haththan xmaqqanamalla tana kiitidadey (Xiilloo Ayanay iza bola wodhidi shempishshin nee beyanadey Xiiloo Ayanan meccnay izakko) gidii tas yoottidess.
And I knew him not; but he that sent me to immerse in water, said to me, On whom you shall see the Spirit descending and remaining, this is he that immerses in the Holy Spirit.
34 Taka hessa beyadiss. Hessa gish izi Xoossa na gididaysa ta markatays.”
And I saw, and do testify that this is the Son of God.
35 Wontetha galass Yanissay bena kaliza nam7atara heen eqqides.
Again the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples.
36 Yesussay iza achchara adhdhishshn Yanissay beydii “Xoossa dorssay hekkoo haysichch!” gides.
And looking on Jesus as he walked, he said: Behold the Lamb of God.
37 Yanssa kalliza nam7ati hessa siiydii Yesussa kallida.
And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Istii iza kaliishshn yesussa guye yuuy xellidii “ayy kooyetii?” gidees. Istkka “asstamaare ne dussasoy awaa?” gida.
And Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them:
39 Izikka ista “ha ydii beyte” gidess. Hessa gish bidii izii awan dizakko be7idane he gllass izara isppe pe7ida. Wodeykka gedee tamuu sateso bidess.
What do you seek? They said to him: Rabbi, (which, when translated, is called Teacher, ) where abidest thou?
40 Yanissay yotida qaala siydii Yesussa kallida nam7atappe issay Simoona Phixiroossa ishsha Indirassa.
He said to them: Come and see. They went and saw where he abode; and they remained with him that day; for it was about the tenth hour.
41 Indirassay koyroo ba ishsha simoonakko bidinne “Xoossi kitida kirstossa nu demidos!” gidess.
One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.
42 Hesafe guye Indirassay Simoona Yesussakko ekii yides. Yesussaykka iza tishsh hisiti xelidii. “hayso ne Yoonna na Simoonakko, hayssafe guye ne Keehaaththaa geetistana.” Kehaaththaa gusi Phixrossa gusa wyykoo zlaa shuchu gusa.
He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him: We have found the Messiah; (which, when translated, is the Christ; )
43 Wonteththa gallas Yesusay Galilla banass koydees. Piliphoosska demiidi “tana kalla” gidess.
and he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said: You are Simon, the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which, when translated, is Rock).
44 Pilphoossaykka Indirasamalane Phixiroossamala Batesaydda kattama asa.
The day following, Jesus wished to go into Galilee; and he found Philip, and said to him: Follow me.
45 Piphoossay natina7ele demiidi “Mussey woga maxxafan qase nabetiikka burope hanana yotiza bee maxxafatann iza gish xafida adeza nuu demidos, izikka Yosefo na Nazirete Yesussakko” gides.
Now, Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
46 Natina7eley qass “Nazireteppe lo7o miishi beti erizee?” gi oychin Pilphossay iza “ha yada beya” gides.
Philip found Nathaniel, and said to him: We have found him of whom Moses in the law and the prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
47 Natina7eley Yesussa beyana yishin yesussay beydi iza “hekko geney bayndda tumu Isra77ele ass!” giidi iza gish yotidess.
And Nathaniel said to him: Can any thing good come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him: Come and see.
48 Natina77eleykka zaridi “tana woosta eradii?” gi oychin Yesussaykka “Pilipoossay nena xeyiganappe kase Balasse miththa garsan ne dishshin ta nena beyaddis” gi zarin.
Jesus saw Nathaniel coming to him, and said of him: Be hold, an Israelite in truth, in whom there is no guile.
49 Natina77eleay “asstammarea! ne Xoossa na ne Israe77ele kawo” gides.
Nathaniel said to him: How knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him: Before Philip called you, while you were under the fig-tree, I saw you.
50 Yesussaykka izas “ne amaniiday ta neena baallass miththa garsan beyadis” gidagsshe? ne buro hessafe adhdhiza daro miish beyana.
Nathaniel answered and said to him: Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.
51 Gujidikka ta intes tumu gays buro sallooy dooyetin Xoossa kiitanchati asa na bolla wdhishininne kezishin inte beyana.
Jesus answered and said to him: Do you believe, because I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree? You shall see greater things than these. And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
