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.
this one was in the beginning with God;
3 Bhinu byona byakolelwe okutula kumwene atakabheye omwene chitalio nolwo chinu chimwi echo chakakolelwe.
all things through him did happen, and without him happened not even one thing that hath happened.
4 Bwikalo bhaye bhaliga bhuanga, no bhuanga bwaliga bwelu bwa bhanu bhona.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men,
5 Bwelu nibwatika muchisute, nolwo echisute chitalisimishe.
and the light in the darkness did shine, and the darkness did not perceive it.
6 Aligaalio omunu oyo aliga atumwilwe okusoka Kunyamuanga unu lisina aliga Yohana.
There came a man — having been sent from God — whose name [is] John,
7 Ejile okubhambalila obwelu, koleleki bhatule okwikilisha okutula kumwene.
this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
8 Yohana aliga atali bwelu, nawe ejile okubhambalila obwelu.
that one was not the Light, but — that he might testify about the Light.
9 Obhwo bhwaliga bhuli bwelu bhwe echimali obhwo bhwaliga nibhuja muchalo obhwelu Obhwo nibhusosha obhwelu kubhuli munu.
He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;
10 Aligali musi, na isi yakolelwe okutula kumwene, na isi itamumenyele.
in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:
11 Ejile kwe bhinu byaye, na bhamu bhatamulamiye.
to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;
12 Nawe kwa bhafu bhanu bhamulamiye, bhekilisishe lisina lyaye, kwa bhanu abhayanile okubha bhana bha Nyamuanga,
but as many as did receive him to them he gave authority to become sons of God — to those believing in his name,
13 Bhanu bhatebhuywe, atali kwa manyinga, okubha kwe lyenda lyo munu, nawe ku Nyamuanga wenyele.
who — not of blood nor of a will of flesh, nor of a will of man but — of God were begotten.
14 Newe musango nakolwa mubhili nekala kweswe, nichilola likusho lyaye, likusho lilabha lya munu wenyele oyo ejile okusoka ku Lata, ejuye echigongo ne chimali.
And the Word became flesh, and did tabernacle among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of an only begotten of a 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 doth testify concerning him, and hath cried, saying, 'This was he of whom I said, He who after me is coming, hath come before me, for he was before me;'
16 Kwo kubha okusoka mukukumila bwaye eswe chiyabhilwe kwe chigongo.
and out of his fulness did we all receive, and grace over-against grace;
17 Okubha ebhilagilo bhiletelwe okutulila ku Musa. Echigongo nechimali byejile ku Yesu Kirsto.
for the law through Moses was given, the grace and the truth through Jesus Christ did come;
18 Atalio munu oyo amulolele Nyumuanga mwanya gwona. Omunu wenyele unu ni Nyamuanga, ali muchifubha cha Lata, amukolelede omwene bhamumenyega.
God no one hath ever seen; the only begotten Son, who is on the bosom of the Father — he did declare.
19 Na bhunu nibhubhambasi bwa Yohana omwanya abhagabhisi na bhalawi bhamutumele kwaye na Bhayahudi nibhamubhusha ati, Awe niga?”
And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent out of Jerusalem priests and Levites, that they might question him, 'Who art thou?'
20 Nawe atetimatile atali, nabhasubya,”Anye atali Krisito.”
and he confessed and did not deny, and confessed — '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.”
And they questioned him, 'What then? Elijah art thou?' and he saith, 'I am not.' — 'The prophet art thou?' and he answered, 'No.'
22 Nibhamubwila ati,”Awe nawega, koleleki chibhayane lisubyo abhobhachitule”? Owibhambalilaatiki awe wenyele?”
They said then to him, 'Who art thou, that we may give an answer to those sending us? what dost thou say concerning thyself?'
23 Naika, “anye ni bhulaka bhaye unu ali ibhala:'Mugololele injila ya Lata bhugenyi Alabha omulagi Isaya kutyo aikile.”
He said, 'I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet.'
24 Bhaliga bhali bhanu bhatumilwe okusoka ku bhafalisayo. Nibhamubhusha ati ni bhaika,
And those sent were of the Pharisees,
25 “Kulwaki oubhatija labha awe atali Kristo amwi Eliya amwi mulagi?”
and they questioned him and said to him, 'Why, then, dost thou baptize, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?'
26 Yohana nabhasubya naika ati,”enibhatija kwa manji. Nolwo kutyo agati yemwe kemelegulu omunu oyo mutakumenya.
John answered them, saying, 'I baptize with water, but in midst of you he hath stood whom ye have not known, this one it is who is coming after me, who hath been before me,
27 Unu niwe kaja kulwanye. Anye niteile kugesha olukobha lwa bhilato byaye.”
of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the cord of his sandal.'
28 Emisago jinu jitagendeleye eyo Bethania, kungego ya Yorodani enu Yohana aliga nabhatija.
These things came to pass in Bethabara, 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 morrow John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, 'Lo, the Lamb of God, who is taking 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 said, After me doth come a man, who hath come before me, because he was before me:
31 Nitamumenyele omwene, nawe yakolelwe kutyo koleleki abhulisibwe ku Israeli, ati nejile nimbatija kwa manji.”
and I knew him not, but, that he might be manifested to Israel, because of this I came with the water baptizing.
32 Yohana nabhambalila,”nalola Omwoyo neka okusoka mulwile lwa injibha, ni mubhako ingulu yaye.
And John testified, saying — 'I have seen the Spirit coming down, as a dove, out of heaven, and it 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 he who sent me to baptize with water, He said to me, On whomsoever thou mayest see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on him, this is he who is baptizing with the Holy Spirit;
34 Nindola na nimbambalila ati onu ni Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.'
35 Mwejo Yohana aliga emeleguyu amwi na bheigisibwa bhaye bhabhili,
On the morrow, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,
36 Bhamulolele Yesu nalibhata na Yohana naika ati, Lola omwana wa inama wa Nyamuanga?”
and having looked on Jesus walking, he saith, 'Lo, the Lamb of God;'
37 Abheigisibwa bhabhili nibhamugwa Yohana naika ati bhamulubhe Yesu.
and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
38 Lindi Yesu nainduka na bhalola abheigisibwa bhaye nibhamulubha, nabhabwila ati, Omuyenjaki?” Ni bhamusubya ati,”Rabbi, (obhugajulo bwaye'mwiigisha,'wikaye aki?”
And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, saith to them, 'What seek ye?' and they said to them, 'Rabbi, (which is, being interpreted, Teacher, ) where remainest thou?'
39 Nabhabwila ati,”muje mulole.”Mbe nibhagenda nibhalola anu aliga ekaye; nibheyanja amwi nage lusiku olwo, Okubha yaliga uti saa ekumi kutya.
He saith to them, 'Come and see;' they came, and saw where he doth remain, and with him they remained that day and the hour was about the tenth.
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 who heard from John, and followed him;
41 Namulola omula wabho Simoni na mubwila ati,”Chamulolele Masiya”(obhugajulo bwalyo ati Kristo).
this one doth first find his own brother Simon, and saith to him, 'We have found the Messiah,' (which is, being interpreted, The Anointed, )
42 Namuleta ku Yesu. Yesu namulolelela naika ati,”Awe ni Simoni omwana wa Yohana”ulibhilikilwa Kefa,”(obhugajulo bwalyo' Petro').
and he brought him unto Jesus: and having looked upon him, Jesus saith, 'Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas, thou shalt be called Cephas,' (which is interpreted, A rock.)
43 lusiku olwolwalubhiye omwanya Yesu nenda okugenda Galilaya, amubwene Filipo namubwila ati,”niundubhe anye.”
On the morrow, he willed to go forth to Galilee, and he findeth Philip, and saith to him, 'Be following me.'
44 Filipo aligali wa Bethsaida, mu musi gwa Andrea na Petro.
And 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 findeth Nathanael, and saith to him, 'Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the prophets, we have found, Jesus the son of Joseph, who [is] from Nazareth;'
46 Nathanaeli namubwila ati,”Mbe echinu chakisi echitula okusoka Nazareti?”Filipo namubwila ati, Ija olole.”
and Nathanael said to him, 'Out of Nazareth is any good thing able to be?' Philip said 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 unto him, and he saith concerning him, 'Lo, truly an Israelite, in whom guile is not;'
48 Nathanaeli namubhwila ati,” Wamenyeyeaki anye?” yesu namusubya namubwila ati,”achali Filipo okubhilikila uli asi yo mutini, gwokulola.”
Nathanael saith to him, 'Whence me dost thou know?' Jesus answered and said to him, 'Before Philip's calling thee — thou being under the fig-tree — I saw thee.'
49 Nathanaeli nasubya,”Rabi awe uli mwana wa Nyamuanga! Awe ni Mukama wa Israeli”!
Nathanael answered and saith to him, 'Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the king of Israel.'
50 Yeau nasubya namubwila ati, kwo kubha nakubwiliye' nakulolele asi yo mutini' mbe wekilisha? oulola ebhikolwa byafu okukila bhinu.”
Jesus answered and said to him, 'Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou dost believe; greater things than these thou shalt see;'
51 Yesu naika ati,”Nichimali chimali enibhabwila ati mulilola olwile lwigukile na mulibhalola bhamalaika nibhalinya na nibheka ingulu yo Mwana wa Nyamuanga.”
and he saith to him, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down upon the Son of Man.'
