< Jāņa Evaņg̒elijs 1 >

1 Iesākumā bija Vārds, un Vārds bija pie Dieva, un Dievs bija Vārds.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 Tas bija iesākumā pie Dieva.
The same was in the beginning with God.
3 Visas lietas ir darītas caur Viņu, un bez Viņa nekas nav darīts, kas ir darīts.
All things were made through him. Without him, nothing was made that has been made.
4 Iekš Viņa bija dzīvība, un tā dzīvība bija cilvēku gaišums.
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 Un tas gaišums spīd tumsībā, un tumsība to nesaņēma.
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness hasn’t overcome it.
6 Viens cilvēks bija no Dieva sūtīts, Jānis vārdā.
There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 Tas nāca liecības dēļ, ka dotu liecību par To Gaišumu, lai visi caur to ticētu.
The same came as a witness, that he might testify about the light, that all might believe through him.
8 Viņš pats nebija tas gaišums, bet ka tas liecību dotu par To Gaišumu.
He was not the light, but was sent that he might testify about the light.
9 Tam patiesam Gaišumam, kas ikvienu cilvēku apgaismo, bija nākt pasaulē.
The true light that enlightens everyone was coming into the world.
10 Viņš bija pasaulē, un pasaule ir caur Viņu darīta; bet pasaule Viņu nepazina.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him, and the world didn’t recognize him.
11 Viņš nāca pie tiem savējiem, un šie Viņu neuzņēma.
He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.
12 Bet cik Viņu uzņēma, tiem Viņš deva vaļu, palikt par Dieva bērniem, tiem, kas tic uz Viņa Vārdu,
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 Kas ne no asinīm, nedz no miesas gribēšanas, nedz pēc kāda vīra prāta, bet kas no Dieva dzimuši.
who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 Un tas Vārds tapa miesa un dzīvoja mūsu starpā, pilns žēlastības un patiesības, un mēs redzējām Viņa godību, tādu godību, kā Tā vienpiedzimušā Dēla no Tā Tēva.
The Word became flesh and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the only born Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Jānis dod liecību par Viņu un sauc sacīdams: “Šis bija Tas, par ko es sacīju: kas nāk pēc manis, Tas ir bijis priekš manis. Viņš bija pirmāk nekā es.”
John testified about him. He cried out, saying, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me has surpassed me, for he was before me.’”
16 Un no Viņa pilnuma mēs visi esam dabūjuši žēlastību uz žēlastību.
From his fullness we all received grace upon grace.
17 Jo bauslība ir dota caur Mozu, žēlastība un patiesība ir notikusi caur Jēzu Kristu.
For the law was given through Moses. Grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
18 Dievu neviens nekad nav redzējis: tas vienpiedzimušais Dēls, Tēva klēpī būdams, Tas mums to ir stāstījis.
No one has seen God at any time. The only born Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has declared him.
19 Un šī ir Jāņa liecība, kad tie Jūdi no Jeruzālemes priesterus un levitus sūtīja, lai tam jautā: “Kas tu esi?”
This is John’s testimony, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
20 Un viņš apliecināja un neliedzās, un apliecināja: “Es neesmu Kristus.”
He declared, and didn’t deny, but he declared, “I am not the Christ.”
21 Un tie tam jautāja: “Kas tad? Vai tu esi Elija?” Un viņš saka: “Neesmu.” “Vai tu esi tas Pravietis?” Un viņš atbildēja: “Nē”.
They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” He answered, “No.”
22 Tad tie uz viņu sacīja: “Kas tu esi? lai atbildam tiem, kas mūs sūtījuši; ko tu saki par sevi pašu?”
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 Viņš sacīja: “Es esmu saucēja balss tuksnesī: sataisiet Tā Kunga ceļu, kā pravietis Jesaja sacījis.”
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 Un tie izsūtītie bija no tiem farizejiem.
The ones who had been sent were from the Pharisees.
25 Un tie viņam jautāja un uz viņu sacīja: “Kāpēc tad tu kristi, kad tu neesi Tas Kristus, nedz Elija, nedz tas Pravietis?”
They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
26 Jānis tiem atbildēja un sacīja: “Es kristīju ar ūdeni; bet Tas jūsu vidū iestājies, ko jūs nepazīstat;
John answered them, “I baptize in water, but among you stands one whom you don’t know.
27 Tas nāk pēc manis, un ir bijis priekš manis, Tam es neesmu cienīgs kurpju siksnas atraisīt.”
He is the one who comes after me, who is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I’m not worthy to loosen.”
28 Tas notika Betanijā viņpus Jardānes upes, kur Jānis kristīja.
These things were done in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.
29 Otrā dienā Jānis Jēzu ierauga nākam un saka: “Redzi, Tas Dieva Jērs, kas nes pasaules grēkus.
The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
30 Šis ir Tas, par ko es esmu sacījis: pēc manis nāk vīrs, kas bijis priekš manis: jo Viņš bija pirmāk nekā es.
This is he of whom I said, ‘After me comes a man who is preferred before me, for he was before me.’
31 Un es Viņu nepazinu: bet lai Viņš Israēlim taptu zināms, tāpēc es esmu nācis, kristīdams ar ūdeni.”
I didn’t know him, but for this reason I came baptizing in water, that he would be revealed to Israel.”
32 Un Jānis deva liecību sacīdams: “Es redzēju to Garu nolaižamies no debess kā balodi un paliekam uz Viņa.
John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.
33 Un es Viņu nepazinu, bet kas mani sūtījis kristīt ar ūdeni, Tas uz mani sacīja: uz ko tu redzēsi to Garu nolaižamies un paliekam, šis ir Tas, kas kristī ar Svēto Garu.
I didn’t recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water said to me, ‘On whomever you will see the Spirit descending and remaining on him is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.’
34 Un es esmu redzējis un liecību devis, ka šis ir Tas Dieva Dēls.”
I have seen and have testified that this is the Son of God.”
35 Otrā dienā Jānis atkal stāvēja un divi no viņa mācekļiem,
Again, the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples,
36 Un ieraudzījis Jēzu staigājam, viņš saka: “Redzi, Tas Dieva Jērs!”
and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!”
37 Un tie divi mācekļi viņu dzirdēja runājam un Jēzum gāja pakaļ.
The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
38 Un Jēzus atgriezdamies un tos redzējis pakaļ nākam, uz tiem saka: “Ko jūs meklējat?” Un tie uz Viņu sacīja: “Rabbi, (tas ir tulkots: mācītājs, ) kur Tu mājo?”
Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, being interpreted, Teacher), “where are you staying?”
39 Viņš uz tiem saka: “Nāciet un redziet.” Tie nāca un redzēja, kur Viņš mājoja, un palika to dienu pie Viņa, un tas bija ap desmito stundu.
He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day. It was about the tenth hour.
40 Andrejs, Sīmaņa Pētera brālis, bija viens no tiem diviem, kas to no Jāņa bija dzirdējuši un Viņam gājuši pakaļ.
One of the two who heard John and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 Šis pirmais atrod savu brāli Sīmani un uz to saka: “Mēs to Mesiju esam atraduši (tas ir tulkots: Kristus).”
He first found his own brother, Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah!” (which is, being interpreted, Christ).
42 Un viņš to veda pie Jēzus. Un Jēzus to uzlūkoja un sacīja: “Tu esi Sīmanis, Jonas dēls, tu tapsi saukts Kefas, tas ir tulkots: Pēteris (akmens).”
He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas” (which is by interpretation, Peter).
43 Otrā dienā Jēzus gribēja iziet uz Galileju un atrod Filipu un uz to saka: “Nāc Man pakaļ.”
On the next day, he was determined to go out into Galilee, and he found Philip. Jesus said to him, “Follow me.”
44 Un Filips bija no Betsaidas, Andreja un Pētera pilsētas.
Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Filips atrod Natanaēli un uz to saka: “Par ko Mozus bauslībā rakstījis un tie pravieši, To mēs esam atraduši, Jēzu no Nacaretes, Jāzepa dēlu.”
Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
46 Un Natanaēls uz to sacīja: “Vai no Nacaretes var būt kāds labums?” Filips uz to saka: “Nāc un redzi!”
Nathanael said to him, “Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
47 Jēzus redzēja Natanaēli nākam, un par to saka: “Redzi, patiesi viens Israēlietis, iekš kā viltības nav.”
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said about him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
48 Natanaēls uz Viņu saka: “Kā Tu mani pazīsti?” Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Es tevi redzēju, pirms Filips tevi aicināja, kad tu biji apakš tā vīģes koka.”
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 Natanaēls atbildēja un uz Viņu saka: “Rabbi, Tu esi Dieva Dēls, Tu esi Israēla Ķēniņš.”
Nathanael answered him, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are King of Israel!”
50 Jēzus atbildēja un uz to sacīja: “Tādēļ tu tici, ka Es tev esmu sacījis: Es tevi redzēju apakš tā vīģes koka. Tu redzēsi lielākas lietas nekā tās.”
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 Un Viņš uz to saka: “Patiesi, patiesi, Es jums saku: no šī laika jūs redzēsiet debesis atvērtas un Dieva eņģeļus uzkāpjam un nokāpjam uz To Cilvēka Dēlu.”
He said to him, “Most certainly, I tell you all, hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”
