Yoana 1
1 Kubwambilo gwaliga gulio Omusango, no Musango aliga amwi na Nyamuanga, Na Musango aligaali Nyamuanga.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Oyo, Musango, mubwambilo aliga amwi Na Nyamuanga.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Bhinu byona byakolelwe okutula kumwene atakabheye omwene chitalio nolwo chinu chimwi echo chakakolelwe.
All things were made by Him, and without Him nothing was made, that has been made.
4 Bwikalo bhaye bhaliga bhuanga, no bhuanga bwaliga bwelu bwa bhanu bhona.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of the men.
5 Bwelu nibwatika muchisute, nolwo echisute chitalisimishe.
And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.
6 Aligaalio omunu oyo aliga atumwilwe okusoka Kunyamuanga unu lisina aliga Yohana.
There was a man having been sent from God, whose name was John;
7 Ejile okubhambalila obwelu, koleleki bhatule okwikilisha okutula kumwene.
The same came for a witness, that he might bear witness concerning the light, in order that all through him might believe.
8 Yohana aliga atali bwelu, nawe ejile okubhambalila obwelu.
He was not the light, but came that he might bear witness concerning the light.
9 Obhwo bhwaliga bhuli bwelu bhwe echimali obhwo bhwaliga nibhuja muchalo obhwelu Obhwo nibhusosha obhwelu kubhuli munu.
That was the true light, which lighteth every man, coming into the world.
10 Aligali musi, na isi yakolelwe okutula kumwene, na isi itamumenyele.
He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.
11 Ejile kwe bhinu byaye, na bhamu bhatamulamiye.
He came unto His own, and His own received Him not.
12 Nawe kwa bhafu bhanu bhamulamiye, bhekilisishe lisina lyaye, kwa bhanu abhayanile okubha bhana bha Nyamuanga,
But so many as received Him, to them gave He the right to become the children of God, to those believing on His name:
13 Bhanu bhatebhuywe, atali kwa manyinga, okubha kwe lyenda lyo munu, nawe ku Nyamuanga wenyele.
who were born not of bloods, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Newe musango nakolwa mubhili nekala kweswe, nichilola likusho lyaye, likusho lilabha lya munu wenyele oyo ejile okusoka ku Lata, ejuye echigongo ne chimali.
The Word was made flesh, and tented among us (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten with the Father), full of grace and truth.
15 Yohana nabhambalila omwene naikila ingulu ati,”Unu niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,”uliya kaja kulwani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha abheyeo nichali anye.”
John beareth witness concerning Him, and cried out saying; This is He of whom I spoke, He that cometh after me has been before me:
16 Kwo kubha okusoka mukukumila bwaye eswe chiyabhilwe kwe chigongo.
because He was my Creator. And of His fullness we all received grace upon grace.
17 Okubha ebhilagilo bhiletelwe okutulila ku Musa. Echigongo nechimali byejile ku Yesu Kirsto.
Because the law was given by Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 Atalio munu oyo amulolele Nyumuanga mwanya gwona. Omunu wenyele unu ni Nyamuanga, ali muchifubha cha Lata, amukolelede omwene bhamumenyega.
No one has ever seen God; the only begotten Son, the one being in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared him.
19 Na bhunu nibhubhambasi bwa Yohana omwanya abhagabhisi na bhalawi bhamutumele kwaye na Bhayahudi nibhamubhusha ati, Awe niga?”
This is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem, that they might ask him,
20 Nawe atetimatile atali, nabhasubya,”Anye atali Krisito.”
Who art thou? and he confessed and denied not, and confessed that, I am not the Christ.
21 Kutyo nibhamubhusha ati,”kulwejo awe ni niga woli?” Awe ni Eliya? Naika ati,”Anye nitali.”nibhaika ati, Awe ni muligi? Nasubya,”Uli.”
They asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he says, I am not. Art thou that prophet?
22 Nibhamubwila ati,”Awe nawega, koleleki chibhayane lisubyo abhobhachitule”? Owibhambalilaatiki awe wenyele?”
And he responded, No. Then they said to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those having sent us. What do you say concerning yourself?
23 Naika, “anye ni bhulaka bhaye unu ali ibhala:'Mugololele injila ya Lata bhugenyi Alabha omulagi Isaya kutyo aikile.”
I am the voice of one roaring in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord as Isaiah the prophet said.
24 Bhaliga bhali bhanu bhatumilwe okusoka ku bhafalisayo. Nibhamubhusha ati ni bhaika,
And those having been sent were of the Pharisees.
25 “Kulwaki oubhatija labha awe atali Kristo amwi Eliya amwi mulagi?”
And they asked him, and said to him, Then why do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor that prophet?
26 Yohana nabhasubya naika ati,”enibhatija kwa manji. Nolwo kutyo agati yemwe kemelegulu omunu oyo mutakumenya.
John responded to them, saying, I baptize with water: There standeth One in your midst whom you do not know,
27 Unu niwe kaja kulwanye. Anye niteile kugesha olukobha lwa bhilato byaye.”
the One coming after me, of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the latchet of His sandal.
28 Emisago jinu jitagendeleye eyo Bethania, kungego ya Yorodani enu Yohana aliga nabhatija.
These things took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Mwejo Yohana namulola Yesu naja kwaye naika ati,”Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga unu kagega ebhibhibhi bye chalo!
On the following day he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world.
30 Oyo niwe naikile emisango jaye ninaika ati,” oyo kaja inyuma yani ni mukulu kukila anye, okubha niwe atangatiye.'
This is He concerning whom I spoke, A man cometh after me who has been before me: because he was my Creator.
31 Nitamumenyele omwene, nawe yakolelwe kutyo koleleki abhulisibwe ku Israeli, ati nejile nimbatija kwa manji.”
And I did not know Him, but in order that He may be made manifest to Israel, on this account I came baptizing with water.
32 Yohana nabhambalila,”nalola Omwoyo neka okusoka mulwile lwa injibha, ni mubhako ingulu yaye.
And John testified saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and remained on Him.
33 Anye nitamumenyele nawe omwene oyo antumile nibhatije kwa manji nambwila ati, unu ulilola Omwoyo neka neyanja ingulu yaye, Oyo niwe kabhatija kwa Omwoyo Mwelu.'
And I did not know Him, but the One having sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whom you may see the Spirit descending and remaining on Him, He is the one baptizing with the Holy Ghost.
34 Nindola na nimbambalila ati onu ni Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
And I have seen, and testified that He is the Son of God.
35 Mwejo Yohana aliga emeleguyu amwi na bheigisibwa bhaye bhabhili,
On the following day John again stood, and two of his disciples,
36 Bhamulolele Yesu nalibhata na Yohana naika ati, Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga?”
and looking upon Jesus walking about, says, Behold, the Lamb of God.
37 Abheigisibwa bhabhili nibhamugwa Yohana naika ati bhamulubhe Yesu.
And the two disciples heard him speaking and followed Jesus.
38 Lindi Yesu nainduka na bhalola abheigisibwa bhaye nibhamulubha, nabhabwila ati, Omuyenjaki?” Ni bhamusubya ati,”Rabbi, (obhugajulo bwaye'mwiigisha,'wikaye aki?”
Jesus turning and seeing them following, says to them, What are you seeking? and they said to Him, Doctor, (which is said, being interpreted, Teacher), where dwellest thou?
39 Nabhabwila ati,”muje mulole.”Mbe nibhagenda nibhalola anu aliga ekaye; nibheyanja amwi nage lusiku olwo, Okubha yaliga uti saa ekumi kutya.
He says to them; Come and see. Then they came and saw where He dwelleth, and they abode with Him that day: it was about the tenth hour.
40 Oumwi wa bhaliya bhabhili abhobhamunguwe Yohana naika no kumulubha Yesu aliga Andrea, owabho Simoni Petro.
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two hearing from John, and follows Him;
41 Namulola omula wabho Simoni na mubwila ati,”Chamulolele Masiya”(obhugajulo bwalyo ati Kristo).
he first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found Messiah, which is being interpreted, Christ.
42 Namuleta ku Yesu. Yesu namulolelela naika ati,”Awe ni Simoni omwana wa Yohana”ulibhilikilwa Kefa,”(obhugajulo bwalyo' Petro').
He led him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said; Thou art Simon the Son of Jonah, thou shalt be called Cephas (which is interpreted, Peter).
43 lusiku olwolwalubhiye omwanya Yesu nenda okugenda Galilaya, amubwene Filipo namubwila ati,”niundubhe anye.”
On the following day he wished to depart into Galilee, and he finds Philip. And Jesus says to him; Follow me.
44 Filipo aligali wa Bethsaida, mu musi gwa Andrea na Petro.
Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filipo namubhona Nathanaeli namubhila ati, Chamubhona uliya unu Musa andikile emisango jaye ne bhilagilo nabhalagi. Yesu omwana wa Yusufu, okusoka Nazareti.
Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, We have found Him, of whom Moses and the prophets, in the law, did write, Jesus the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth.
46 Nathanaeli namubwila ati,”Mbe echinu chakisi echitula okusoka Nazareti?”Filipo namubwila ati, Ija olole.”
Nathanael said to him, Is any good thing able to come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see.
47 Yesu namulola Nathanaeli naja kumwene naika ati,”Lola, Omwisraeli wechimali wechimali unu atali bhuligelige kwaye!”
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and says concerning him, Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile.
48 Nathanaeli namubhwila ati,” Wamenyeyeaki anye?” yesu namusubya namubwila ati,”achali Filipo okubhilikila uli asi yo mutini, gwokulola.”
Nathanael says to Him, Whence do you know me? Jesus responded and said to him, Before Philip called you, I saw you, being under the fig-tree.
49 Nathanaeli nasubya,”Rabi awe uli mwana wa Nyamuanga! Awe ni Mukama wa Israeli”!
Nathanael responded, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, the King of Israel.
50 Yeau nasubya namubwila ati, kwo kubha nakubwiliye' nakulolele asi yo mutini' mbe wekilisha? oulola ebhikolwa byafu okukila bhinu.”
Jesus responded and said to him, Because I said to thee, that I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? thou shalt see greater things than these.
51 Yesu naika ati,”Nichimali chimali enibhabwila ati mulilola olwile lwigukile na mulibhalola bhamalaika nibhalinya na nibheka ingulu yo Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
And He says to him, Truly, truly, I say unto you, you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.
