< Johana 5 >

1 Thuutha wa maũndũ macio Jesũ nĩambatire Jerusalemu tondũ nĩ kwarĩ na gĩathĩ kĩa Ayahudi.
After these things was the feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up into Jerusalem.
2 Na rĩrĩ, kũu Jerusalemu hakuhĩ na Kĩhingo-kĩa-Ngʼondu nĩ kwarĩ na karia geetagwo na Kĩhibirania Bethesida, nako gaathiũrũrũkĩirio nĩ ithaku ithano ciarĩ ngite.
And there is a pool at the sheep-market, called in Hebrew Bethzatha, having five porches.
3 Kũu nĩkuo gwakomagwo nĩ ikundi nene cia andũ arĩa maarĩ arũaru, ta atumumu, na cionje, na arĩa maakuĩte ciĩga (meetereire maaĩ moinjugwo.
In them a multitude of the sick, blind, lame, withered, were lying down.
4 Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kũrĩ hĩndĩ mũraika wa Mwathani aikũrũkaga akoinjuga maaĩ karia-inĩ kau; na mũndũ wa mbere kũrika kuo maaĩ moinjugwo, nĩahonagio mũrimũ o wothe ũrĩa aarĩ naguo.)
5 Na hau nĩ haarĩ mũndũ ũmwe watũũrĩte arĩ mũrũaru mĩaka mĩrongo ĩtatũ na ĩnana.
And a certain man was there, being thirty-eight years in his infirmity;
6 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Jesũ aamuonire akomete hau, na akĩmenya atĩ atũũrĩte ũguo ihinda iraaya, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩũkwenda kũhonio?”
Jesus seeing him lying down, and knowing that he already has much time, says to him; Do you wish to be whole?
7 Nake mũndũ ũcio warũarĩte akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, ndirĩ na mũndũ wa kũndikia thĩinĩ wa karia rĩrĩa maaĩ moinjugwo. Ngĩgeria gũtoboka thĩinĩ-rĩ, mũndũ ũngĩ agatoboka mbere yakwa.”
The sick man responded to Him, Lord, I have no man that may put me in the pool, when the water may be troubled: and while I come, another goes down before me.
8 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku, wĩtware!”
And Jesus says to him, Arise, take thy bed, and walk about.
9 Na o rĩmwe mũndũ ũcio akĩhona, akĩoya kĩbarĩ gĩake, na agĩĩtwara. Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũcio gwekĩkire ũguo warĩ wa Thabatũ,
And the man was made whole, and he took up his bed and continued to walk about. And it was the Sabbath on that day.
10 na nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ayahudi makĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wahonetio atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ nĩ mũthenya wa Thabatũ; watho ndũgwĩtĩkĩrĩtie ũkuue kĩbarĩ gĩaku.”
Then the Jews were saying to the healed man, It is the Sabbath, and it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 Nowe akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũũhonirie anjĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku, wĩtware.’”
He responded to them, the one having made me whole, He said to me, Take thy bed, and walk about.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũcio ũkwĩrire woe kĩbarĩ wĩtware nũũ?”
They asked him, Who is the man who said to thee, Take thy bed, and walk about?
13 Mũndũ ũcio wahonetio ndaamenyaga nũũ wamũhonetie, tondũ Jesũ aakoretwo orĩire kĩrĩndĩ-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩarĩ hau.
And the sick man did not know who He is: for Jesus went out, the crowd being in the place.
14 Thuutha ũcio Jesũ akĩmũkora hekarũ-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “One, rĩu nĩũhonete. Ndũgacooke kwĩhia ndũkae gũkorwo nĩ ũndũ mũũru kũrĩ ũcio.”
And after these things, Jesus finds him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou hast been made whole: sin no more, lest something worse may come on thee.
15 Nake mũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ na akĩĩra Ayahudi atĩ Jesũ nĩwe wamũhonetie.
And the man departed, and said to the Jews, that Jesus is the one having made him whole.
16 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Ayahudi makĩnyariira Jesũ, tondũ ekĩte maũndũ macio mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
And on account of this the Jews continued to persecute Jesus, because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.
17 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Baba atũũrĩte o arĩ wĩra-inĩ wake nginya rĩu, na o na niĩ no ndĩraruta wĩra.”
And He responded to them, My Father worketh until now, and I work.
18 Nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtũmi kĩu, Ayahudi magĩkĩrĩrĩria kũgeria kũmũũraga; nĩgũkorwo to mũthenya wa Thabatũ aathũkagia, no o na nginya nĩetaga Ngai ithe wake mwene, na ũguo akeiganania na Ngai.
Therefore the Jews the more sought to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but said that God was His Father, making himself equal to God.
19 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, Mũriũ ndarĩ ũndũ angĩĩka we mwene, tiga o ũrĩa onaga Ithe agĩĩka, nĩgũkorwo maũndũ marĩa Ithe ekaga no mo Mũriũ o nake ekaga.
Then Jesus responded and said to them, Truly, truly, I say unto you, The Son is not able to do anything Himself, unless He may see the Father doing it: for whatsoever He may do, the Son likewise also doeth the same.
20 Nĩgũkorwo Ithe nĩendete Mũriũ, na nĩamuonagia maũndũ mothe marĩa ekaga, Ĩĩ, na nĩakamuonia maũndũ manene o na gũkĩra maya, nĩgeetha o na inyuĩ mũgege.
For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth Him all things which He doeth; and will show Him greater things than these, in order that you may be astonished.
21 O ta ũrĩa Ithe ariũkagia andũ arĩa akuũ akamahe muoyo, noguo o nake Mũriũ aheaga muoyo o ũrĩa angĩenda kũhe.
For as the Father raiseth up the dead and createth life in them, so the Son also createth life in whom He will.
22 Na ningĩ-rĩ, ithe ndarĩ mũndũ atuagĩra ciira, no ehokeire Mũriũ ũtuanĩri wothe wa ciira,
For the Father judgeth no one, for He hath given all judgment to the Son;
23 nĩgeetha andũ othe matĩĩage Mũriũ o ta ũrĩa matĩĩaga Ithe. Ũrĩa ũtatĩĩaga Mũriũ ndatĩĩaga Ithe ũrĩa wamũtũmire.
in order that all may honor the Son, as they may honor the Father. He that honoreth not the Son honoreth not the Father who sent Him.
24 “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũrĩa wothe ũiguaga kiugo gĩakwa na agetĩkia ũrĩa wandũmire, arĩ na muoyo wa tene na tene; na ti wa gũciirithio nĩarĩkĩtie kuuma gĩkuũ-inĩ agatoonya muoyo-inĩ. (aiōnios g166)
Truly, truly, I say unto you, that every one hearing my word, and believing on Him that sent me hath eternal life, and doth not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, kũrĩ ihinda rĩrooka, na rĩu nĩikinyu rĩrĩa akuũ makaigua mũgambo wa Mũrũ wa Ngai, nao arĩa makaũigua nĩ magaatũũra muoyo.
Truly, truly, I say unto you, that the hour cometh and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and having heard will live.
26 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa Ithe arĩ na muoyo thĩinĩ wake mwene, no taguo ahotithĩtie Mũriũ kũgĩa na muoyo thĩinĩ wake mwene.
For as the Father hath life in Himself, so also He has given to His Son to have life also in Himself.
27 Na nĩamũheete ũhoti wa gũtuanĩra ciira nĩ tondũ nĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
And He hath given Him authority to execute the judgment, because He is the Son of man.
28 “Mũtikagegio nĩ ũhoro ũcio, nĩgũkorwo ihinda nĩrĩroka rĩrĩa andũ arĩa othe marĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ makaigua mũgambo wake
Do not be astonished at this: because the hour cometh, in which all who are in their graves will hear His voice,
29 na moime kuo, arĩa mekĩte wega mariũke nĩguo matũũre muoyo, nao arĩa mekĩte ũũru mariũke nĩguo matuĩrwo ciira.
and come forth; those having done good, unto the resurrection of life; and those having done evil, unto the resurrection of judgment.
30 Ndirĩ ũndũ ingĩhota gwĩka niĩ mwene; nduanagĩra ciira kũringana na ũrĩa njiguaga, na itua rĩakwa nĩ rĩa kĩhooto, nĩgũkorwo ndicaragia gwĩkenia niĩ mwene, tiga gũkenia ũrĩa wandũmire.
I am not able to do anything of myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is righteous; because I do not seek my own will, but the will of the One having sent me.
31 “Ingĩheana ũira ũngoniĩ niĩ mwene-rĩ, ũira ũcio wakwa ndũngĩtuĩka wa ma.
If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true.
32 Nĩ kũrĩ na ũngĩ ũrĩa uumbũraga ũhoro wakwa, na nĩnjũũĩ atĩ ũira wake igũrũ rĩakwa nĩ wa ma.
There is another who testifieth concerning me; and you know that the testimony which He testifies concerning me is true.
33 “Inyuĩ nĩmwatũmanire kũrĩ Johana, nake nĩaheanire ũira wa ma.
You sent to John, and he witnessed to the truth:
34 Ti atĩ nĩnjĩtĩkagĩra ũira wa mũndũ; no nĩndĩũgwetaga nĩgeetha mũhonokio.
but I do not receive the witness with man: but I speak these things that you may be saved.
35 Johana aarĩ tawa ũrĩa wakanire na ũkĩmũrĩka, na inyuĩ mũgĩthuura gũkenera ũtheri wake kwa ihinda.
He was a bright and shining light: and you were willing to rejoice for an hour in that light.
36 “Niĩ ndĩ na ũira mũnene gũkĩra ũcio wa Johana. Nĩgũkorwo wĩra ũrĩa Baba aaheete ndĩĩkie, na noguo ndĩraruta, nĩguo uumbũraga atĩ Baba nĩwe ũndũmĩte.
But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works that the Father hath given me that I may perfect them, these works which I do, testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me.
37 Nake Baba ũrĩa wandũmire nĩaheanĩte ũira ũngoniĩ we mwene. Inyuĩ mũtirĩ mwaigua mũgambo wake kana mũkona ũrĩa atariĩ,
And the Father having sent me, He hath testified concerning me: never have you heard His voice, neither have you seen His face:
38 o na kiugo gĩake gĩtitũũraga thĩinĩ wanyu, tondũ mũtiĩtĩkĩtie ũrĩa aatũmire.
and you have not His word abiding in you: because you do not believe Him whom He has sent.
39 Inyuĩ mũtuĩragia Maandĩko tondũ mwĩciiragia atĩ na ũndũ wamo nĩmwĩgwatĩire muoyo wa tene na tene. Maandĩko macio nĩmo moimbũraga ũhoro ũrĩa ũngoniĩ, (aiōnios g166)
Search the Scriptures, because in them ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify concerning me; (aiōnios g166)
40 no nĩmũregaga gũũka kũrĩ niĩ mũgĩe na muoyo.
and you do not wish to come unto me, in order that you may have life.
41 “Niĩ ndiĩtĩkagĩra ũgooci kuuma kũrĩ andũ,
I do not receive glory with men;
42 no inyuĩ nĩndĩmũũĩ. Ngamenya atĩ inyuĩ mũtirĩ na wendo wa Ngai ngoro-inĩ cianyu.
but I know you that you have not the love of God in you.
43 Njũkĩte thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩa Baba na mũtinjĩtĩkagĩra; no mũndũ ũngĩ angĩũka na rĩĩtwa rĩake mwene, nĩmũkũmwĩtĩkĩra.
I have come in the name of my Father, and you do not receive me: if another may come in his own name, you will receive him.
44 Mũngĩtĩkia atĩa angĩkorwo mwĩtĩkagĩra ũgooci kuuma kũrĩ andũ arĩa angĩ, no mũticaragia ũgooci ũrĩa uumaga kũrĩ Ngai o ũcio ũmwe?
How are you able to believe, receiving glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is with God only?
45 “No mũtigeciirie atĩ nĩngamũthitanga mbere ya Baba. Musa ũrĩa inyuĩ mwĩhokeete nĩwe mũmũthitangi.
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one accusing you, in whom you have hoped.
46 Korwo nĩmwĩtĩkĩtie Musa-rĩ, no mũnjĩtĩkie, nĩgũkorwo nĩ ũhoro wakwa aandĩkire.
For if you were believing Moses, you were believing me; for he wrote concerning me.
47 No kuona atĩ mũtiĩtĩkĩtie ũrĩa aandĩkire-rĩ, mũngĩgĩtĩkia atĩa ũrĩa njugaga?”
For if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?
