Κατα Ιωαννην 1
1 Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος, καὶ ὁ λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν θεόν, καὶ θεὸς ἦν ὁ λόγος.
Mwanzoni kulikuwako Neno, na Neno alikuwa pamoja na Mungu, na Neno alikuwa Mungu.
2 οὗτος ἦν ἐν ἀρχῇ πρὸς τὸν θεόν·
Huyu, Neno, Mwanzoni alikuwa pamoja na Mungu.
3 πάντα δι᾽ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, καὶ χωρὶς αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο οὐδὲ ἕν. ὃ γέγονεν
Vitu vyote vilifanyika kupitia yeye, na pasipo yeye hakuna hata kitu kimoja kilichokuwa kimefanyika.
4 ἐν αὐτῷ ζωὴ ἦν, καὶ ἡ ζωὴ ἦν τὸ φῶς τῶν ἀνθρώπων,
Ndani yake kulikuwa uzima, na huo uzima ulikuwa nuru ya wanadamu wote.
5 καὶ τὸ φῶς ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ φαίνει, καὶ ἡ σκοτία αὐτὸ οὐ κατέλαβεν.
Nuru yang'aa gizani, wala giza halikuizimisha.
6 Ἐγένετο ἄνθρωπος ἀπεσταλμένος παρὰ θεοῦ, ὄνομα αὐτῷ Ἰωάνης·
Palikuwa na mtu aliyetumwa kutoka kwa Mungu, ambaye jina lake alikuwa Yohana.
7 οὗτος ἦλθεν εἰς μαρτυρίαν, ἵνα μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ φωτός, ἵνα πάντες πιστεύσωσιν δι᾽ αὐτοῦ.
Alikuja kama shahidi kushuhudia kuhusu ile nuru, ili kwamba wote waweze kuamini kupitia yeye.
8 οὐκ ἦν ἐκεῖνος τὸ φῶς, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα μαρτυρήσῃ περὶ τοῦ φωτός.
Yohana hakuwa ile nuru, bali alikuja ili ashuhudie kuhusu ile nuru
9 ἦν τὸ φῶς τὸ ἀληθινόν, ὃ φωτίζει πάντα ἄνθρωπον, ἐρχόμενον εἰς τὸν κόσμον.
Hiyo ilikuwa nuru ya kweli ambayo ilikuwa inakuja katika dunia nayo humtia nuru kila mmoja
10 ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ ἦν, καὶ ὁ κόσμος δι᾽ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, καὶ ὁ κόσμος αὐτὸν οὐκ ἔγνω.
Alikuwa katika dunia, na dunia iliumbwa kupitia yeye, na dunia haikumjua.
11 εἰς τὰ ἴδια ἦλθεν, καὶ οἱ ἴδιοι αὐτὸν οὐ παρέλαβον.
Alikuja kwa vitu vyake, na watu wake hawakumpokea.
12 ὅσοι δὲ ἔλαβαν αὐτόν, ἔδωκεν αὐτοῖς ἐξουσίαν τέκνα θεοῦ γενέσθαι, τοῖς πιστεύουσιν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ,
Bali kwa wale wengi waliompokea, ambao waliamini jina lake, kwa hao aliwapa haki ya kuwa wana wa Mungu,
13 οἳ οὐκ ἐξ αἱμάτων οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος σαρκὸς οὐδὲ ἐκ θελήματος ἀνδρὸς ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ θεοῦ ἐγεννήθησαν.
Ambao walizaliwa, sio kwa damu, wala kwa mapenzi ya mwili, wala kwa mapenzi ya mtu, bali kwa Mungu mwenyewe.
14 Καὶ ὁ λόγος σὰρξ ἐγένετο, καὶ ἐσκήνωσεν ἐν ἡμῖν, καὶ ἐθεασάμεθα τὴν δόξαν αὐτοῦ, δόξαν ὡς μονογενοῦς παρὰ πατρός, πλήρης χάριτος καὶ ἀλη θείας.
Naye Neno alifanyika mwili na akaishi miongoni mwetu, tumeuona utukufu wake, utukufu kama wa mtu pekee wa kipekee aliyekuja kutoka kwa Baba, amejaa neema na kweli.
15 Ἰωάνης μαρτυρεῖ περὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ κέκραγεν λέγων, Οὗτος ἦν ὃν εἶπον, Ὁ ὀπίσω μου ἐρχόμενος, ἔμπροσθέν μου γέγονεν· ὅτι πρῶτός μου ἦν.
Yohana alishuhudia kuhusu yeye, na alipaza sauti akisema, “Huyu ndiye ambaye nilisema habari zake nikisema, “Yule ajaye baada yangu ni mkuu kuliko mimi, kwa sababu amekuwako kabla yangu.”
16 ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ πληρώματος αὐτοῦ ἡμεῖς πάντες ἐλάβομεν καὶ χάριν ἀντὶ χάριτος·
Kwa kuwa kutoka katika utimilifu wake, sisi sote tumepokea bure kipawa baada ya kipawa.
17 ὅτι ὁ νόμος διὰ Μωυσέως ἐδόθη, ἡ χάρις καὶ ἡ ἀλήθεια διὰ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ ἐγένετο.
Kwa kuwa sheria ililetwa kupitia Musa. Neema na kweli vilikuja kupitia Yesu Kristo.
18 Θεὸν οὐδεὶς ἑώρακεν πώποτε· μονογενὴς θεὸς ὁ ὢν εἰς τὸν κόλπον τοῦ πατρός, ἐκεῖνος ἐξηγήσατο.
Hakuna mwanadamu aliyemwona Mungu wakati wowote. Mtu pekee ambaye ni Mungu, aliye katika kifua cha Baba, amemfanya yeye ajulikane.
19 καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ μαρτυρία τοῦ Ἰωάνου, ὅτε ἀπέστειλαν πρὸς αὐτὸν οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι ἐξ Ἱεροσολύμων ἱερεῖς καὶ Λευείτας, ἵνα ἐρωτήσωσιν αὐτόν, Σὺ τίς εἶ;
Na huu ndio ushuhuda wa Yohana wakati makuhani na walawi waliotumwa kwake na Wayahudi kumwuliza, “Wewe ni nani?”
20 καὶ ὡμολόγησεν καὶ οὐκ ἠρνήσατο, καὶ ὡμολόγησεν ὅτι Ἐγὼ οὐκ εἰμὶ ὁ χριστός.
Bila kusitasita na hakukana, bali alijibu, “Mimi sio Kristo.”
21 καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτόν, Τί οὖν; σὺ Ἡλίας εἶ; καὶ λέγει, Οὐκ εἰμί. Ὁ προφήτης εἶ σύ; καὶ ἀπεκρίθη, Οὔ.
Hivyo wakamuuliza, “kwa hiyo wewe ni nani sasa?” Wewe ni Eliya? Akasema, “Mimi siye.” Wakasema, Wewe ni nabii? Akajibu,” Hapana.”
22 Εἶπαν οὖν αὐτῷ, Τίς εἶ; ἵνα ἀπόκρισιν δῶμεν τοῖς πέμψασιν ἡμᾶς· τί λέγεις περὶ σεαυτοῦ;
Kisha wakamwambia, “Wewe ni nani, ili kwamba tuwape jibu waliotutuma”? Wajishuhudiaje wewe mwenyewe?”
23 ἔφη, Ἐγὼ φωνὴ βοῶντος, ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ εὐθύνατε τὴν ὁδὸν κυρίου· καθὼς εἶπεν Ἡσαΐας ὁ προφήτης.
Akasema, “Mimi ni sauti yake aliaye nyikani: 'Inyosheni njia ya Bwana,' kama nabii Isaya alivyosema.”
24 καὶ ἀπεσταλμένοι ἦσαν ἐκ τῶν Φαρισαίων,
Basi kulikuwa na watu wametumwa pale kutoka kwa Mafarisayo. Wakamuuliza na kusema,
25 καὶ ἠρώτησαν αὐτὸν καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, Τί οὖν βαπτίζεις, εἰ σὺ οὐκ εἶ ὁ χριστὸς οὐδὲ Ἡλίας οὐδὲ ὁ προφήτης;
“Kwa nini unabatiza basi kama wewe sio Kristo wala Eliya wala nabii?”
26 ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰωάνης λέγων, Ἐγὼ βαπτίζω ἐν ὕδατι· μέσος ὑμῶν στήκει ὃν ὑμεῖς οὐκ οἴδατε,
Yohana aliwajibu akisema, “Ninabatiza kwa maji. Hata hivyo, miongoni mwenu anasimama mtu msiyemtambua.
27 [ὁ] ὀπίσω μου ἐρχόμενος, οὗ οὐκ εἰμὶ [ἐγὼ] ἄξιος ἵνα λύσω αὐτοῦ τὸν ἱμάντα τοῦ ὑποδήματος.
Huyu ndiye ajaye baada yangu. Mimi sisitahili kulegeza kamba za viatu vyake.”
28 Ταῦτα ἐν Βηθανίᾳ ἐγένετο πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου, ὅπου ἦν ὁ Ἰωάνης βαπτίζων.
Mambo haya yalitendeka huko Bethania, ng'ambo ya Yordani, mahali ambapo Yohana alikuwa akibatiza.
29 Τῇ ἐπαύριον βλέπει τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἐρχόμενον πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ λέγει, Ἴδε ὁ ἀμνὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, ὁ αἴρων τὴν ἁμαρτίαν τοῦ κόσμου.
Siku iliyofuata Yohana alimwona Yesu akija kwake akasema, “Tazama mwanakondoo wa Mungu aichukuae dhambi ya ulimwengu!
30 οὗτός ἐστιν ὑπὲρ οὗ ἐγὼ εἶπον, Ὀπίσω μου ἔρχεται ἀνὴρ, ὃς ἔμπροσθέν μου γέγονεν, ὅτι πρῶτός μου ἦν.
huyu ndiye niliyesema habari zake nikisema, “Yeye ajaye nyuma yangu ni mkuu kuliko mimi, kwa kuwa alikuwa kabla yangu.'
31 κἀγὼ οὐκ ᾔδειν αὐτόν, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα φανερωθῇ τῷ Ἰσραήλ, διὰ τοῦτο ἦλθον ἐγὼ ἐν ὕδατι βαπτίζων.
Sikumtambua yeye, lakini ilifanyika hivyo ili kwamba afunuliwe katika Israeli, kwamba nilikuja nikibatiza kwa maji.”
32 καὶ ἐμαρτύρησεν Ἰωάνης λέγων ὅτι Τεθέαμαι τὸ πνεῦμα καταβαῖνον ὡς περιστερὰν ἐξ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ ἔμεινεν ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν.
Yohana alishuhudia, “Niliona Roho akishuka kutoka mbinguni mfano wa hua, na ilibaki juu yake.
33 κἀγὼ οὐκ ᾔδειν αὐτόν, ἀλλ᾽ ὁ πέμψας με βαπτίζειν ἐν ὕδατι, ἐκεῖνός μοι εἶπεν, Ἐφ᾽ ὃν ἂν ἴδῃς τὸ πνεῦμα καταβαῖνον καὶ μένον ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν, οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ βαπτίζων ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ.
Mimi sikumtambua lakini yeye aliyenituma ili nibatize kwa maji aliniambia, 'yule ambaye utaona Roho akishuka na kukaa juu yake, Huyo ndiye abatizaye kwa Roho Mtakatifu.'
34 κἀγὼ ἑώρακα, καὶ μεμαρτύρηκα ὅτι οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ.
Nimeona na nimeshuhudia kwamba huyu ni Mwana wa Mungu.”
35 Τῇ ἐπαύριον πάλιν εἱστήκει Ἰωάνης καὶ ἐκ τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ δύο.
Tena siku iliyofuata Yohana alikuwa amesimama pamoja na wanafunzi wake wawili,
36 καὶ ἐμβλέψας τῷ Ἰησοῦ περιπατοῦντι λέγει, Ἴδε ὁ ἀμνὸς τοῦ θεοῦ.
walimwona Yesu akitembea na Yohana akasema, “Tazama, Mwana kondoo wa Mungu!”
37 καὶ ἤκουσαν οἱ δύο μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος, καὶ ἠκολούθησαν τῷ Ἰησοῦ.
Wanafunzi wawili walimsikia Yohana akisema haya wakamfuata Yesu.
38 στραφεὶς δὲ ὁ Ἰησοῦς καὶ θεασάμενος αὐτοὺς ἀκολουθοῦντας, λέγει αὐτοῖς, Τί ζητεῖτε; οἱ δὲ εἶπαν αὐτῷ, Ῥαββί, (ὃ λέγεται μεθερμηνευόμενον Διδάσκαλε, ) ποῦ μένεις;
Tena Yesu aligeuka na kuwaona wanafunzi wale wakimfuata, na akawambia, “Mnataka nini?” Wakajibu, “Rabbi, (maana yake 'mwalimu,' unaishi wapi?”
39 λέγει αὐτοῖς, Ἔρχεσθε καὶ ὄψεσθε. ἦλθαν οὖν καὶ εἶδαν ποῦ μένει, καὶ παρ᾽ αὐτῷ ἔμειναν τὴν ἡμέραν ἐκείνην· ὥρα ἦν ὡς δεκάτη.
Akawambia, “Njooni na mwone.”Kisha walikwenda na kuona mahali alipokuwa akiishi; walikaa pamoja naye siku hiyo, kwa kuwa ilikuwa yapata kama saa kumi hivi.
40 ἦν Ἀνδρέας ὁ ἀδελφὸς Σίμωνος Πέτρου εἷς ἐκ τῶν δύο τῶν ἀκουσάντων παρὰ Ἰωάνου καὶ ἀκολουθησάντων αὐτῷ.
Mmoja wa wale wawili waliomsikia Yohana akiongea na kisha kumfuata Yesu alikuwa ni Andrea, ndugu yake Simoni Petro.
41 εὑρίσκει οὗτος πρῶτον τὸν ἀδελφὸν τὸν ἴδιον Σίμωνα, καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ, Εὑρήκαμεν τὸν Μεσσίαν, (ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον χριστός·)
Akamwona ndugu yake Simoni na akamwambia, “Tumempata Masihi” (ambayo inatafsiriwa Kristo).
42 ἤγαγεν αὐτὸν πρὸς τὸν Ἰησοῦν· ἐμβλέψας αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν, Σὺ εἶ Σίμων ὁ υἱὸς Ἰωάνου· σὺ κληθήσῃ Κηφᾶς, (ὃ ἑρμηνεύεται Πέτρος.)
Akamleta kwa Yesu. Yesu akamtazama na akasema, “Wewe ni Simoni mwana wa Yohana” utaitwa Kefa,” (maana yake 'Petro').
43 Τῇ ἐπαύριον ἠθέλησεν ἐξελθεῖν εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν, καὶ εὑρίσκει Φίλιππον καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς, Ἀκολούθει μοι.
Siku iliyofuata wakati Yesu alipotaka kuondoka kwenda Galilaya, alimpata Filipo na akamwambia, “Nifuate mimi.”
44 ἦν δὲ ὁ Φίλιππος ἀπὸ Βηθσαϊδά, ἐκ τῆς πόλεως Ἀνδρέου καὶ Πέτρου.
Filipo alikuwa ni mwenyeji wa Bethsaida, mji wa Andrea na Petro.
45 εὑρίσκει Φίλιππος τὸν Ναθαναήλ, καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ, Ὃν ἔγραψεν Μωυσῆς ἐν τῷ νόμῳ καὶ οἱ προφῆται, εὑρήκαμεν, Ἰησοῦν [τὸν] υἱὸν τοῦ Ἰωσὴφ τὸν ἀπὸ Ναζαρέτ.
Filipo alimpata Nathanaeli na kumwambia, Tumempata yule ambaye Musa aliandika habari zake katika sheria na Manabii. Yesu mwana wa Yusufu, kutoka Nazareti.
46 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ναθαναήλ, Ἐκ Ναζαρὲτ δύναταί τι ἀγαθὸν εἶναι; λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Φίλιππος, Ἔρχου καὶ ἴδε.
Nathanaeli akamwambia, “Je kitu chema chaweza kutokea Nazareti?” Filipo akamwambia, Njoo na uone.”
47 εἶδεν Ἰησοῦς τὸν Ναθαναὴλ ἐρχόμενον πρὸς αὐτόν, καὶ λέγει περὶ αὐτοῦ, Ἴδε ἀληθῶς Ἰσραηλείτης, ἐν ᾧ δόλος οὐκ ἔστιν.
Yesu akamwona Nathanaeli akija kwake na akasema, “Tazama, Mwisraeli kweli kweli asiye na udanganyifu ndani yake!”
48 λέγει αὐτῷ Ναθαναήλ, Πόθεν με γινώσκεις; Ἀπεκρίθη Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Πρὸ τοῦ σε Φίλιππον φωνῆσαι ὄντα ὑπὸ τὴν συκῆν εἶδόν σε.
Nathanaeli akamwambia, “Umenifahamuje mimi?” Yesu akajibu na akamwambia, “Kabla Filipo hajakuita ulipokuwa chini ya mtini, nalikuona.”
49 ἀπεκρίθη αὐτῷ Ναθαναήλ, Ῥαββί, σὺ εἶ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, σὺ βασιλεὺς εἶ τοῦ Ἰσραήλ.
Nathanaeli akajibu, “Rabi wewe u Mwana wa Mungu! Wewe ni Mfalme wa Israeli”!
50 ἀπεκρίθη Ἰησοῦς καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ, Ὅτι εἶπόν σοι ὅτι Εἶδόν σε ὑποκάτω τῆς συκῆς, πιστεύεις; μείζω τούτων ὄψῃ.
Yesu akajibu akamwambia, Kwa sababu nilikuambia 'nilikuona chini ya mtini' je waamini? utaona matendo makubwa kuliko haya.”
51 καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ, Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ὄψεσθε τὸν οὐρανὸν ἀνεῳγότα καὶ τοὺς ἀγγέλους τοῦ θεοῦ ἀναβαίνοντας καὶ καταβαίνοντας ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
Yesu akasema, “Amini amini nawambieni mtaziona mbingu zikifunguka, na kuwaona malaika wakipanda na kushuka juu ya Mwana wa Adamu.”
