Johana 7
1 Thuutha ũcio, Jesũ nĩaceerangire Galili, nĩ ũndũ ndendaga gũthiĩ Judea tondũ Ayahudi akuo nĩmamũcaragia mamũũrage.
AFTER these Jeshu walked in Galila; for he would not walk in Jihuda, because the Jihudoyee had sought to kill him.
2 No hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Gĩathĩ gĩa Ithũnũ kĩa Ayahudi gĩakuhĩrĩirie-rĩ,
And the feast of tabernacles of the Jihudoyee drew nigh.
3 ariũ a nyina na Jesũ makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩwagĩrĩirwo uume gũkũ ũthiĩ Judea, nĩguo arutwo aku mone ciama iria ũringaga.
And his brethren said to Jeshu, Remove thee hence, and go into Jihuda, that thy disciples may see the works which thou doest.
4 Gũtirĩ mũndũ wendaga kũmenyeka nĩ andũ ũhithaga ũrĩa areeka. Na tondũ nĩũreeka maũndũ maya-rĩ, wĩonanie kũrĩ kĩrĩndĩ.”
For there is no man who doeth any thing in concealment, and willeth himself to be in openness: if these things thou doest, show thyself to the world.
5 Nĩgũkorwo o na ariũ a nyina matiamwĩtĩkĩtie.
For neither did his brethren believe in him, in Jeshu.
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ihinda rĩakwa rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire rĩtirĩ rĩrakinya; no harĩ inyuĩ ihinda o rĩothe nĩrĩagĩrĩire.
Jeshu saith to them, My time until now cometh not, but your time is always ready.
7 Andũ a gũkũ thĩ matingĩmũthũũra, no niĩ nĩmathũire tondũ nĩnyumbũraga atĩ ũrĩa mekaga nĩ ũũru.
The world cannot hate you: but me it hateth, because I bear witness against it that the works of it are evil.
8 Inyuĩ thiĩi Gĩathĩ-inĩ. Niĩ ndikwamba kwambata Gĩathĩ-inĩ kĩu, nĩgũkorwo ihinda rĩakwa rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩru rĩtirĩ rĩrakinya.”
Go you up to this feast: I do not ascend now to this feast, because my time is not yet complete.
9 Na aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, agĩikara kũu Galili.
These things said he, and remained in Galila.
10 No rĩrĩ, thuutha wa ariũ a nyina gũthiĩ Gĩathĩ-inĩ kĩu, o nake agĩcooka agĩthiĩ, no ndaathiire akĩmenyekaga, no aathiire na hitho.
But when his brethren had ascended to the feast, then also he ascended; not in openness, but as in concealment.
11 Na rĩrĩ, kũu Gĩathĩ-inĩ-rĩ, Ayahudi nĩmamũcaragia, makĩũranagia atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũcio arĩ ha?”
But the Jihudoyee sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 Kũu mũingĩ-inĩ guothe andũ nĩmaragia na mĩheehũ ũhoro wake. Amwe makoiga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũcio nĩ mũndũ mwega.” Nao arĩa angĩ makoiga atĩrĩ, “Aca, mũndũ ũcio nĩaheenagia andũ.”
and there was great murmuring concerning him among the people; for some said that he was good, and others said, No; but he deceiveth the people.
13 No gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩaririe ũhoro wake akĩiguagwo nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra Ayahudi.
But no man openly spoke of him, for fear of the Jihudoyee.
14 Gĩathĩ gĩakinya gatagatĩ-rĩ, Jesũ akĩambata agĩthiĩ nja-inĩ cia hekarũ, akĩambĩrĩria kũrutana.
But when the days of the feast divided, Jeshu ascended to the temple, and taught.
15 Nao Ayahudi makĩgega, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ aamenyeire maũndũ maya kũ, na ndathomete?”
And the Jihudoyee wondered and said, How knoweth this man the scripture, when he hath not learned?
16 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũrutani ũrĩa ndutanaga ti wakwa niĩ mwene. Uumaga kũrĩ ũrĩa wandũmire.
Jeshu answered and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his who sent me.
17 Mũndũ o wothe angĩenda gwĩka wendi wa Ngai, ũcio nĩarĩĩmenyaga kana ũrutani wakwa uumaga kũrĩ Ngai, kana njaragia ũhoro wakwa mwene.
Whosoever willeth to do his will understandeth my doctrine, if it be from Aloha, or (if) from the will of myself I speak.
18 Mũndũ ũrĩa waragia ũhoro wake we mwene eekaga ũguo nĩgeetha egoocithie we mwene, no ũrĩa ũrutaga wĩra nĩgeetha agoocithie ũrĩa ũmũtũmĩte nĩ mũndũ wa ma; gũtirĩ ũndũ wa maheeni ũmũkoniĩ.
He who from the will of his (own) mind speaketh, the glory of himself seeketh; but he who the glory of him who hath sent him seeketh, is true, and no iniquity is in him.
19 Githĩ Musa ndaamũheire watho? No gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wanyu ũmenyagĩrĩra watho. Mũrageria kũnjũraga nĩkĩ?”
Did not Musha give you the law? But no man of you keepeth the law. Why seek you to kill me?
20 Naguo mũingĩ wa andũ ũkĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ na ndaimono. Nũũ ũrageria gũkũũraga?”
The people answered, saying, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?
21 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ndaaringire kĩama kĩmwe, na inyuĩ inyuothe mũkĩgega.
Jeshu answered and said to them, One work have I performed, and all of you wondered on this account.
22 No rĩrĩ, tondũ Musa nĩamũheire ũhoro wa kũrua (o na gũtuĩka ũhoro ũcio ndwoimire kũrĩ Musa, no woimĩte kũrĩ maithe manyu ma tene-rĩ), inyuĩ nĩ mũruithagia mwana mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
Musha gave you circumcision, not because it was from the fathers, and on the shabath you circumcise a man.
23 Rĩu angĩkorwo mwana no aruithio mũthenya wa Thabatũ nĩgeetha watho wa Musa ndũgathaahio-rĩ, mũrakĩndakarĩra nĩkĩ nĩkũhonia mũndũ mũthenya wa Thabatũ?
But if a man is circumcised on the day of shabath because the law of Musha may not be broken, why against me do you murmur, because I have altogether healed a man on the day of shabath?
24 Tigai gũtuanagĩra ciira na ũrĩa mũndũ atariĩ, tuanagĩrai ciira na kĩhooto.”
Judge not with acceptance of persons, but righteous judgment judge you.
25 Tondũ ũcio andũ amwe a kũu Jerusalemu makĩambĩrĩria kũũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ũyũ tiwe mũndũ ũrĩa marageria kũũraga?
And some of Urishlem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
26 Na rĩu araaria atekwĩhitha, na matirĩ ũndũ maramwĩra. Kaĩ anene mamenyete kũna atĩ ũyũ nĩwe Kristũ?
and, behold, openly he discourseth, and nothing say they to him. Do the elders know that this is truly the Meshicha?
27 No ithuĩ nĩtũũĩ kũrĩa mũndũ ũyũ oimĩte; rĩrĩa Kristũ agooka, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaamenya kũrĩa agaakorwo oimĩte.”
Yet of this we know from whence he is; but when the Meshicha cometh, no man knoweth from whence he is.
28 Tondũ ũcio Jesũ, o akĩrutanaga kũu hekarũ-inĩ, akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ; “Ĩĩ nĩguo, nĩmũnjũũĩ, na mũkamenya kũrĩa nyumĩte. Ndiũkĩte gũkũ nĩ ũndũ wakwa niĩ mwene, no ũrĩa wandũmire nĩ wa ma. Inyuĩ mũtimũũĩ,
Jeshu lifted up his voice as he taught in the temple, and said, You know me, and from whence I am you know: and of myself I am not come; but true is he who sent me, he whom you know not.
29 no niĩ nĩndĩmũũĩ, tondũ nyumĩte kũrĩ we, na nĩwe wandũmire.”
But I know him who am from him; and he hath sent me.
30 Maigua ũguo makĩgeria kũmũnyiita, no gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wamũhutirie, tondũ ihinda rĩake rĩtiarĩ ikinyu.
And they sought to apprehend him; but no man laid hands on him, because not yet was come his hour.
31 O na kũrĩ o ũguo, andũ aingĩ makĩmwĩtĩkia. Makiuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Kristũ agooka-rĩ, nĩakaringa ciama nyingĩ gũkĩra mũndũ ũyũ?”
But many of the multitude believed in him, and said, When the Meshicha is come, will he exceed the miracles which this doeth?
32 Afarisai makĩigua andũ makĩheehana maũndũ ta macio mamũkoniĩ. Nao athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na Afarisai magĩtũma thigari cia hekarũ ikamũnyiite.
The Pharishee heard the assembly, that they said these things of him, and the chief priests sent officers to apprehend him.
33 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngũkorwo na inyuĩ o ihinda inini, njooke thiĩ kũrĩ ũrĩa wandũmire.
Jeshu said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him who sent me:
34 Inyuĩ mũkaanjaria, no mũtikanyona; na kũrĩa ngaakorwo, mũtikahota gũkinya.”
and you will seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am you cannot come.
35 Ayahudi makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩ kũ arenda gũthiĩ, kũu tũtangĩhota kũmuona? Hihi egũthiĩ kũrĩa andũ aitũ matũũraga mahurunjũkĩte gatagatĩ ka Ayunani, akarute Ayunani ũhoro?
The Jihudoyee say among themselves, Whither is this about to go, that we cannot find him? To the countries of the nations is he to go, and to teach the Heathens?
36 Nĩ atĩa ekwendaga kuuga, rĩrĩa oigire atĩ, ‘Mũkaanjaria no mũtikanyona’ na ‘kũrĩa ngaakorwo mũtikahota gũkinya’?”
What is this word he hath said, You shall seek me, and not find me; and where I am you cannot come?
37 Mũthenya wa mũthia, na ũrĩa warĩ mũnene wa Gĩathĩ kĩu-rĩ, Jesũ akĩrũgama, akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũnyootiĩ-rĩ, nĩoke harĩ niĩ anyue.
BUT in the great day, which was the last of the feast, stood Jeshu and cried, and said, If (any) man thirst, let him come unto me and drink;
38 Ũrĩa wothe ũnjĩtĩkĩtie, thĩinĩ wake nĩkũriumaga njũũĩ cia maaĩ marĩ muoyo, o ta ũrĩa Maandĩko moigĩte.”
for whosoever believeth in me, as have said the scriptures, rivers of living waters shall flow from his belly.
39 Akĩaria ũguo aaragia ũhoro wa Roho, ũrĩa arĩa maamwĩtĩkĩtie makaheo thuutha-inĩ. Amu hĩndĩ ĩyo Roho ndaaheanĩtwo, nĩgũkorwo Jesũ ndaagoocithĩtio.
But this he spake of the Spirit which they should receive who believe in him. For not yet was the Spirit given, because not yet was Jeshu glorified.
40 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maiguire ciugo ciake, amwe makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ mũndũ ũyũ nĩ we Mũnabii ũrĩa.”
Now many of the assemblies who heard his words said, This is truly the Prophet.
41 Arĩa angĩ makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩwe Kristũ.” Nao angĩ makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kwahoteka atĩa Kristũ oime Galili?
Others said, This is the Meshicha. Others said, How from Galila cometh the Meshicha?
42 Githĩ Maandĩko matiugĩte atĩ Kristũ akoima rũciaro-inĩ rwa Daudi, na oime Bethilehemu itũũra rĩrĩa Daudi aatũũraga?”
Hath not the scripture said, That from the seed of David, and from Beth-lechem the town of David, cometh the Meshicha?
43 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio gũkĩgĩa na nyamũkano gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio nĩ ũndũ wa Jesũ.
And there was a division concerning him among the assemblies;
44 Amwe nĩmendaga kũmũnyiita, no gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wamũhutirie.
and there were men of them who would have apprehended him; but no man laid hands on him.
45 Marigĩrĩrio-inĩ arangĩri a hekarũ magĩcooka kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na Afarisai, nao makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mwaga kũmũrehe nĩkĩ?”
AND those officers came to the chief priests and the Pharishee; and the priests said to them, Why have you not brought him?
46 Arangĩri acio magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe ũrĩ waria ta ũrĩa mũndũ ũcio aragia.”
The officers say to them, Never so spake a son of man as speaks this man!
47 Nao Afarisai makĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũroiga atĩ o na inyuĩ nĩamũheenetie?
The Pharishee say to them, Are you also deceived?
48 Nĩ kũrĩ mũnene o na ũmwe kana Mũfarisai ũmwĩtĩkĩtie?
Have any of the heads, or of the Pharishee, believed in him?
49 Aca! No gĩkundi gĩkĩ kĩa andũ matooĩ watho-rĩ, nĩkĩnyiite nĩ kĩrumi.”
But if this people who know not the law (believe in him), they are accursed.
50 Nikodemo, ũrĩa wathiĩte kũrĩ Jesũ mbere ĩyo na aarĩ ũmwe wa gĩkundi kĩao, akĩũria atĩrĩ,
One of them, Nikodimos, he who came to Jeshu by night, saith to them,
51 “Watho witũ nĩũtuagĩra mũndũ ciira ataambĩte gũthikĩrĩrio nĩguo akamenyeka ũrĩa ekĩte?”
Does our law condemn a man unless it shall hear from him first, and know what he hath done?
52 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “O nawe kaĩ uumĩte Galili? Tuĩria ũhoro, na nĩũkũmenya atĩ mũnabii ndangiuma Galili.”
They answered and said to him, Art thou also of Galila? Investigate, and see, that the Prophet from Galila ariseth not.
53 (O mũndũ akĩinũka gwake mũciĩ.
