Joni 1
1 Ese agafare Ke me'neane, higeno ana Kemo'a Anumzane me'ne, ana Kea e'i Anumzane.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Ese agafarera Agra Anumzane tragoteno mani'neane.
He was in the beginning with God.
3 Maka'zana Agrake'za tro hu'ne, hagi mago'zana ru kampintira fore osu'ne, makazana Agrake tro hu'ne.
All things were made through him, and apart from him nothing was made that has been made.
4 Agripi asimura me'ne, hagi ana asimumo'a vahe'mofo Masa'e.
In him was life, and the life was the light of humanity.
5 Ana masamo'a hanizana remsa hunetreankino hanizamo'a agateore'ne.
And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn't overcome it.
6 Hagi mago nera Anumzamo huntegeno e'ne, Ana ne'mofo agi'a Joni'e.
There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Ana ne'ma e'neana, Masamofo naneke hanigu e'ne. Ana hanige'za naneke'a nentahiza zamentinti hugahaze.
He came as a witness to testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 Agra ana masa omani'ne, hanki ana masamofo naneke hu'ama hanigu e'ne.
He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 Agra tamage masamo ama mopafi maka vahe remsa huzmentesigu ne-e.
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 Ama mopafi Agra mani'ne, hagi Agra'a ama mopa tro hu'ne, hu'neanagi ama mopafi vahe'mo'za Agrira antahi'za ke'za osu'naze.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, but the world did not recognize him.
11 Agra'a vaheku huno e'ne, hianagi Agri vahe'mo'za ovare'naze.
He came to his own, and those who were his own did not receive him.
12 Hianagi iza'zo nevare'za Agri agifima zamentintima nehaza vahe'mokizmia, Agra'a hugnare hige'za Anumzamofo mofavre se'naze.
But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God's children, to those who believe in his name,
13 Hagi Anumzamofo mofavrema senazana arera afa zamesitero, vahe avesitero, neve avesitera forera osunazanki, Anumzamo zamazeri fore hu'ne.
who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Ana Kemo vahe fore huteno, tagri'ene mani'ne. Agri masazama'a tagra ke'none, magoke ante'nea Ne'mo hanave'ane masa zama'ane Nefantegati e'ne. Asunku zamo'ene tamage kemo'a avite'nea Nere.
And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Joni'a huama huno Agriku hu'ne. Agra kezatino amanage hu'ne, nagrama amama nehuana Agriku nehue, nagri namage'ma ne-emo'a, nagrira nagateretfa hu'ne. Na'ankure nagra fore osu'nogeno Agra pusante fore huno mani'neane.
John testified about him and shouted out, saying, "This was the one of whom I said, 'He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.'"
16 Higeta tagra ana maka'mota hakare zana Agripi avitenefinti e'nerunkeno, asunku huranteno muse zama'a agumpi agumpi huno neramie.
For of his fullness we all received, and grace upon grace.
17 Na'ankure kasegea Mosesempi tami'ne. Hagi asunku'zane tamage kea, Jisas Kraisimpi tami'ne.
For the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus (the) Messiah.
18 Mopafi vahe'mo'a magore huno Anumzana onketfa hu'ne. Anumzamofo mofavrea magoke mani'neno, Nafa'amofo asumpinka mani'ne, Agra'a Anumzana mani'neno huama hu'ne.
No one has seen God at any time. The only Son, who is at the Father's side, has made him known.
19 Hagi Jiu kva vahe'mo'za, mono kva pristi vahe'ene Livae vahera Jerusalemi kumateti huma zamantage'za Jonina antahigeku vu'za, Kagra azage? hu'za ome antahige'naze.
And this is John's testimony, when the Jewish leaders sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
20 Antahigageno'a agra huama nehuno vahane osuno, huama huno, Nagra tamazahu nera Kraisi'na omani'noe.
And he confessed, and did not deny, but he confessed, "I am not the Messiah."
21 Hige'za, hagi azaga mani'nane? Elaijago? hu'za hazageno, a'o, nagra Elaijana omani'noe huno hige'za, kagra kasnampa nero? hu'za antahigageno, agra kezmi nona huno, i'o huno hu'ne.
And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."
22 Hagi hurantagetama e'nona vahe ome zamasmisunku nehune. Azaga mani'nane huta kagrikura ome zamasmigahune? Kagragura azage hunka nehane?
They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"
23 Hazageno Agra anage hu'ne, Mago Kezanke ka'ma mopafi mani'neno keza tino, Ramofo ka azeri ante fatgo hiho huno Aisaia kasnampa ne'mo korapa hunte'nea ne' mani'noe. (Ais 40:3.)
He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as Isaiah the prophet said."
24 Hu'zmantage'za e'naza Farisi vahe'mo'za,
(Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.)
25 zamagra antahige'za, amanage agriku hu'naze, kagra Kraisigafi, Elaijagafi, mago Kasnampa ne'ma omaninenka, nahigenka mono tina fre nezmantane?
And they asked him, "Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"
26 Joni'a kenona zamirera anage hu'ne, nagra amne tintfanteti mono tina frenermantoe. Hu'neanagi tamagri amunompina magora tamagra keta antahita osu'naza ne' oti'ne.
John answered them, saying, "I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you do not know.
27 E'ima Agra nagri nmage'ma esanimofona Agri aga'nona knare osu'noankina katu ofegahue.
He is the one who comes after me, whose sandal strap I'm not worthy to loosen."
28 Ana nanekea Betani kumara Jodani timofo asoparega Joni'ma mono tima frenezmanterega antahigazageno zmasami'ne.
These things were done in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Anante kotigeno Jisasi'a agrite egeno negeno, Joni'a amanage hu'ne, keho, Anumzamofo Sipisipi anentara, ama mopafi vahe'mokizmi kumira, Agra eri atregahie!
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.
30 Ama'ne ana nera, Agriku'ma hu'na nagrama kema hu'noana, nagri namge'ma esnia nera, nagrira nagatereno ra agi eri'nea nere, nagra fore osu'nogeno, Agra korapa Agraragisa mani'nea nere.
This is he of whom I said, 'After me comes a man who ranks ahead of me, because he existed before me.'
31 Nagra antahi'na ke'na Agrira osu'noanagi, Israeli vahe'mo'za Agrira antahiza keza hanaze hu'na, nagra ena mono tina eme frezmante'noe.
I did not know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water: that he would be revealed to Israel."
32 Joni'a huama huno amanage hu'ne, Nagra kogeno Avamura maho namamo hiaza huno monafinti eramino Agrite emanige'na ke'noe.
And John testified, saying, "I saw the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 Nagra ke'na antahi'na Agrira osu'noanagi, mono tima frezmanto huno'ma hunante'nea ne'mo'a anage huno nasmi'ne, kesnankenoma Avamumo'ma monafinkati'ma eramino Agrite'ma emani'nea ne'mo, Agra Ruotge Avamupina mono tina fre zamantegahie hu'ne.
And I did not recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, this is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
34 Nagrani'a kete'na, huama hu'na ama Anumzamofo mofavre hu'na neramasmue.
And I have seen and have testified that this is the Chosen One of God."
35 Anante zupa Joni'a, amage'ma nenta'a disaipoli netrema'ane oti'neno,
Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 Jisasi'a ne-egeno Joni'a negeno amanage huno hu'ne, Keho, amu Anumzamofo Sipisipi anentare,
and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Look, the Lamb of God."
37 anage hige'ne, Joni amagema nenta'a disaipol netremoke nentahi'ne, Jisasi amage'anteke vu'na'e.
And the two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.
38 Jisasi'a amage'a nevakeno rukrahe huno neznageno, Na'anku nehakra'e? huno znantahigege'ne, Rempi hurami ne'moka inante Kagra nemanine? hu'ne antahigena'e.
And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi" (which translated means Teacher), "where are you staying?"
39 Agra anage zanagriku hu'ne, E'netna tanagratani'a emege'o hige'ne, Agrane vuke nemania nonkuma omenege'ne ana zupa Agrane mani'nakeno, 4 kiloki hu'ne.
He said to them, "Come, and you will see." They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about four in the afternoon.
40 Hagi nanterana mago'mo Joni hiankema antahiteno Jisasi amage'ma vu'nea nera Endru'e, Saimon Pitana nefu'e.
One of the two who heard John, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.
41 Hagi Endru'a, Jisasima keteno pusante Endru'a nefu Saimoni keno, amanage huno asami'ne. Tagra hago Mesaiana hakreta erifore hu'none. (E'i ana agima eri rukrehe'ma hu'neana Kraisi'e hu'ne.)
He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah." (which is translated, Anointed One).
42 Jisasinte Endru'a, Saimonina avreno vu'ne. Vigeno Jisasi'a negeno anage huno asmi'ne, Kagra Saimonige Joni nemofoga mani'nane, kagri kagi'a Sifasi'e hugahaze. (E'i ana agima eri rukrehe'ma hu'neana Pita'e hu'ne.)
He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "You are Simon the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is translated, Peter).
43 Mseno kotigeno Jisasi'a Galili vunaku nehuno Filipi ome negeno, Nagri namage anto hu'ne.
On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me."
44 Hanki Filipi'a Betsaidati ne' Andrune, Pitakiznia rankuma zani'areti nere.
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filipi'a, Natanieli'e nehaza ne' kefore huteno amanage huno asmi'ne, Mosesi'ene kasnampa vahe'mo'zama avontafepima agenke'ama krente'naza Ne'ma, Nazareti kumateti Josefe nemofo Jisasi'e hu'naza nera hago hakreta erifore hu'none, huno asmi'ne.
Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."
46 Natanieli'a anage huno Filipina antahige'ne, Nazaretia knare'zana efore hugahio? Filipi'a anage hu'ne, kagraka'a enka emego.
And Nathanael said to him, "Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."
47 Natanieli'a Agritega ne-egeno Jisasi'a negeno amanage hu'ne, Keho, tamage Israeli vahere agu'afina havige hu'zana omne'ne!
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, "Look, a true Israelite in whom there is no deceit."
48 Natanieli'a Agriku anage hu'ne. Kagra inankna hunka nagrira nage'nane? Jisasi'a ke'nona huno amanage hu'ne, Filipi'a kagi osu'negenka fiki zafa agafafi mani'nanke'na ko kage'noe.
Nathanael said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."
49 Higeno Natanieli'a Agri ke'nona amanage hu'ne, Hurami nere, Kagra fatgo hunka Anumzamofo nemofoga mani'nane. Kagra Israeli vahe'mokizmi Kini nere.
Nathanael answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God. You are King of Israel."
50 Higeno, Jisasi'a ke'are anage huno asmi'ne, Na'ankure Nagrama hu'na fiki zafa agafafi mani'nanke'na kage'noema huazanku kamentinti nehano? Henka'a agatere'neaza ruzahu'za kagra kegahane.
Jesus answered him, "Because I told you, 'I saw you underneath the fig tree,' do you believe? You will see greater things than these."
51 Higeno Jisasi'a mago'ane amanage huno Natanielina asami'ne, Tamagerafa hu'na Nagra kagrira negasamue, kagra negesankeno mona kafamo'a anagisigeno, Anumzamofo ankero zagamo'za, Vahe'mofo Mofavrere mareriza tamiza nehanigenka kegahane.
And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man."
