Yoane 6
1 Sima na yango, Yesu akendeki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale ya Galile oyo babengaka mpe ebale ya Tiberiade.
AFTER these things Jesus went beyond the sea of Galilee, that is of Tiberias.
2 Bato ebele bazalaki kolanda Ye mpo ete bazalaki komona bikamwa oyo azalaki kosala na banzoto ya babeli.
And a vast multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he performed on those who were diseased.
3 Yango wana Yesu amataki na ngomba mpe avandaki kuna elongo na bayekoli na Ye.
Then Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat down with his disciple.
4 Nzokande Pasika, feti ya Bayuda, ekomaki pene.
And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
5 Tango Yesu atombolaki miso, amonaki ebele ya bato penza koya epai na Ye; alobaki na Filipo: — Tokosomba mapa wapi mpo na koleisa bato oyo nyonso?
Then Jesus lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a vast concourse of people was come to him, said to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?
6 Yesu atunaki Filipo motuna oyo mpo na komeka ye mpe kotala soki akoloba nini, pamba te Ye, Yesu, ayebaki makambo oyo alingaki kosala.
And this he said to try him: for himself knew what he would do.
7 Filipo azongiselaki Yesu: — Mapa oyo tokoki kosomba na mbongo ya bibende nkama mibale ekokoka te mpo ete moto moko na moko kati na bango azwa eteni ya lipa!
Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii spent in bread would not procure a sufficiency for them, that every one of them might have a morsel.
8 Moko kati na bayekoli na Ye, oyo kombo na ye ezali Andre, ndeko mobali ya Simona Petelo, alobaki na Ye:
One of his disciples saith to him, (Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, )
9 — Ezali awa na elenge mobali moko oyo azali na mapa mitano basala na bambuma ya orje, mpe bambisi mibale; kasi yango ekosala nini mpo na ebele ya bato oyo?
There is a little lad here, who hath five barley-loaves, and two small fishes: but these, what are they among so many?
10 Yesu apesaki bango mitindo: — Boloba na bato nyonso ete bavanda. Boye, lokola ezalaki na matiti ebele na esika yango, bavandaki. Ezalaki wana na mibali pene nkoto mitano.
Then said Jesus, Make the men sit down. For there was plenty of grass on the spot. Therefore the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11 Bongo Yesu azwaki mapa yango, azongisaki matondi epai ya Nzambe mpe akabolaki yango epai ya bato oyo bazalaki wana; asalaki mpe bongo na bambisi: bato bazwaki kolanda ndenge posa na bango ezalaki.
And Jesus took the loaves; and giving thanks, gave to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sat down; and in the same manner of the fishes, as much as they chose.
12 Sima na bato kolia mpe kotonda, Yesu alobaki na bayekoli na Ye: — Bosangisa biteni oyo etikali mpo ete eteni moko te ebeba.
And when they had made a hearty meal, he saith to his disciples, Gather up the broken bits which are left, that not a morsel be wasted.
13 Basangisaki biteni yango; mpe na biteni ya mapa mitano basala na bambuma ya orje, oyo etikalaki na maboko ya bato oyo baliaki, batondisaki bitunga zomi na mibale.
Then they collected them, and filled twelve baskets with fragments out of the five barley-loaves, which were more than enough for those who had eaten.
14 Tango bato bamonaki bikamwa oyo Yesu awutaki kosala, balobaki: « Azali penza Mosakoli oyo asengelaki koya na mokili. »
When therefore the men saw the miracle which Jesus had done, they said, This is of a certainty that prophet which is to come into the world.
15 Kasi, lokola Yesu ayebaki ete bazali na makanisi ya kokamata Ye mpo na kokomisa Ye mokonzi, abendanaki lisusu na ngomba mpo ete azala kaka Ye moko.
Then Jesus, knowing their intention to come and to seize him by force, in order to make him king, retired again into the mountain by himself alone.
16 Tango pokwa ekomaki, bayekoli na Ye bakitaki na ebale
So when evening was now come, his disciples went down to the sea-side,
17 epai wapi bamataki na bwato moko, bakatisaki ebale mpo na kokende na Kapernawumi, na ngambo mosusu ya ebale. Butu ekotaki, wana Yesu amikomelaki nanu te epai bango bakomaki.
and embarking on a vessel were coming across the sea to Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
18 Ekumbaki moko ebandaki kopepa, mpe mayi ya ebale etombokaki.
And the sea was greatly agitated by a tempestuous wind that blew.
19 Awa basilaki koluka nkayi na molayi ya bakilometele pene mitano to motoba, bamonaki Yesu kotambola likolo ya mayi ya ebale mpe kopusana pene ya bwato; somo makasi ekangaki bango.
Having rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near the vessel, and they were affrighted.
20 Kasi Yesu alobaki na bango: « Kimia! Kimia! Bobanga te! Ezali Ngai! »
But he saith to them, It is I; be not afraid.
21 Balingaki kokotisa Yesu na bwato, kasi, mbala moko, bwato etutaki mabele ya esika oyo bazalaki kokende.
Then they desired to take him into the vessel: and instantly the vessel was at the land whither they were going.
22 Mokolo oyo elandaki, bato oyo batikalaki na ngambo mosusu ya ebale bayaki kokanisa na sima ete ezalaki kaka na bwato moko, mpe ete Yesu akendeki bwato moko te na bayekoli na Ye; bayekoli bakendeki bango moko kaka.
The next day the multitude who stayed on the other side of the sea, when they saw that there was no little vessel there, except the one into which his disciples went, and that Jesus went not with his disciples in the vessel, but that his disciples went away alone;
23 Nzokande, babwato mosusu ewutaki na Tiberiade mpe ekomaki pene ya esika oyo baliaki mapa sima na Nkolo kozongisa matondi epai ya Nzambe.
(but now little vessels had come from Tiberias near to the spot where they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks: )
24 Tango bato bamonaki ete, ezala Yesu to bayekoli na Ye, moko te azalaki lisusu wana, bamataki na babwato yango mpe bakendeki koluka Yesu, na Kapernawumi.
then when the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they also went into the vessels, and came to Capernaum, in search of Jesus.
25 Tango bakutaki Ye na ngambo mosusu ya ebale, batunaki Ye: — Rabi, okomaki awa tango nini?
And when they found him on the other side the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
26 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: soki bozali koluka Ngai, ezali kaka mpo ete boliaki mapa mpe botondaki, kasi ezali te mpo ete bomonaki bikamwa.
Jesus replied to them and said, Ye seek me, not because ye have seen the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
27 Bosalaka te mpo na bilei oyo ebebaka, kasi bosalaka mpo na bilei oyo ewumelaka mpo na bomoi ya seko, bilei oyo Mwana na Moto akopesa bino; pamba te ezali Ye nde Nzambe Tata abeta kashe. (aiōnios g166)
Labour not for the meat which is perishable, but for that meat which endureth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give you: for him hath the Father sealed, even God. (aiōnios g166)
28 Batunaki Ye lisusu: — Tosengeli kosala nini mpo na kokokisa misala oyo Nzambe azali kozela epai na biso?
Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?
29 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Mosala ya Nzambe, yango oyo: bondima Ye oyo Nzambe atindaki.
Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye should believe on him whom he hath sent.
30 Batunaki Ye lisusu: — Elembo nini ya kokamwa okolakisa biso mpo ete tondima Yo? Okosala penza nini?
Then said they to him, What miracle therefore dost thou, that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?
31 Bakoko na biso baliaki mana kati na esobe kolanda ndenge ekomama: « Apesaki bango lipa kowuta na Likolo. »
Our fathers did eat manna in the wilderness; as it is written, “He gave them bread from heaven to eat.”
32 Kasi Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: ezali Moyize te moto apesaki bino lipa oyo ezalaki kowuta na Likolo, kasi ezali Tata na Ngai nde apesaka bino lipa ya solo oyo ewutaka na Likolo.
Then said Jesus unto them, Verily, verily, I tell you, It was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the real bread from heaven.
33 Pamba te lipa ya Nzambe ezali Ye oyo akiti wuta na Likolo mpe apesaka mokili bomoi.
For he that cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world, is the bread of God.
34 Bongo balobaki na Ye: — Nkolo, pesaka biso lipa yango tango nyonso.
Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
35 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Ngai nazali lipa oyo epesaka bomoi. Moto nyonso oyo akoya epai na Ngai akoyoka lisusu nzala te, mpe moto nyonso oyo akondima Ngai akoyoka lisusu posa ya mayi te.
Then said Jesus to them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst more.
36 Nzokande, ndenge nayebisaki bino, bozali komona Ngai, kasi bozali kondima te.
But I have told you, That though ye have seen me, yet ye have not believed.
37 Bato nyonso oyo Tata apesi Ngai bakoya epai na Ngai, mpe nakobengana soki moke te moto nyonso oyo akoya epai na Ngai.
Every individual which the Father giveth me will come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in nowise cast out.
38 Pamba te soki nakitaki wuta na Likolo, ezali te mpo na kosala mokano na Ngai moko, kasi mpo na kokokisa mokano ya Ye oyo atindaki Ngai.
For I came down from heaven, not with a view to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 Nzokande, Ye oyo atindaki Ngai alingi ete nabungisa ata moto moko te kati na bato oyo apesaki Ngai, kasi nasekwisa bango na mokolo ya suka.
Now this is the will of the Father who sent me, That every thing which he hath given me I should not be deprived of it, but raise it up at the last day.
40 Pamba te mokano ya Tata na Ngai ezali ete moto nyonso oyo amoni Mwana mpe andimi Ye azwa bomoi ya seko; mpe, Ngai, nakosekwisa ye na mokolo ya suka. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the will of him that sent me, That every one who seeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
41 Bayuda bakomaki koyimayima na tina na Ye mpo ete alobaki: « Ngai, nazali lipa oyo ekiti wuta na Likolo. »
Then the Jews murmured against him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
42 Bakomaki koloba: — Boni, wana ezali Yesu te? Ezali mwana mobali ya Jozefi te? Toyebi malamu tata mpe mama na ye! Bongo ndenge nini azali koloba: « Nawuti na Likolo? »
And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how then saith this man, That I came down from heaven?
43 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Botika koyimayima kati na bino!
Jesus answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves.
44 Moto moko te akoki koya epai na Ngai soki Tata oyo atindaki Ngai abendi ye te; mpe Ngai, nakosekwisa ye na mokolo ya suka.
No man can come to me, except the Father who hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
45 Tala ndenge ekomama kati na mikanda ya Basakoli: « Nzambe akoteya bango nyonso. » Boye moto nyonso oyo ayokaka Tata mpe ayambaka mateya na Ye ayaka epai na Ngai.
It is written in the prophets, And “they shall all be taught of God.” Every one therefore who heareth from the Father, and learneth, cometh to me.
46 Moto moko te amona Tata, longola kaka Ye oyo ayaki wuta epai ya Nzambe.
Not that any man hath seen the Father, except he that is with God, he hath seen the Father.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
48 pamba te nazali lipa oyo epesaka bomoi.
I am the bread of life.
49 Bakoko na bino baliaki mana kati na esobe mpe bakufaki,
Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and they are dead.
50 kasi botala lipa oyo ewuti na Likolo; moto oyo akolia yango akokufa te.
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that any person may eat of it, and never die.
51 Ngai nde nazali lipa ya bomoi oyo ewuti na Likolo; moto nyonso oyo akolia lipa yango, akozala na bomoi ya seko; mpe lipa oyo nakopesa mpo ete mokili ezwa bomoi ezali nde nzoto na Ngai. (aiōn g165)
I am the bread that giveth life, which came down from heaven: if any person eat of this bread, he shall live to eternity; and the bread indeed which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. (aiōn g165)
52 Tango Bayuda bayokaki bongo, bakomaki kotiana tembe; bazalaki koloba: — Akopesa biso nzoto na ye ndenge nini mpo ete tolia yango?
Then the Jews contended with each other, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
53 Bongo Yesu alobaki na bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: soki bolie nzoto ya Mwana na Moto te mpe bomeli makila na Ye te, bozali na bomoi te kati na bino.
Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves.
54 Moto oyo alie nzoto na Ngai mpe ameli makila na Ngai, azali na bomoi ya seko; mpe Ngai, nakosekwisa ye na mokolo ya suka. (aiōnios g166)
He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
55 Pamba te nzoto na Ngai ezali penza bilei, mpe makila na Ngai ezali penza lokola mayi oyo bamelaka.
For my flesh truly is meat, and my blood truly is drink.
56 Moto oyo alie nzoto na Ngai mpe ameli makila na Ngai azali kati na Ngai, mpe Ngai nazali kati na ye.
He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him.
57 Ndenge Tata oyo atindaki Ngai azali etima ya bomoi mpe Ngai nazali na bomoi na nzela na Ye, ndenge wana mpe moto oyo alie nzoto na Ngai akozala na bomoi na nzela na Ngai.
As the life-giving Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same shall live by me.
58 Tala ndenge lipa oyo ewuti na Likolo ezali: ekokani te na mana oyo bakoko na bino baliaki, kasi bakufaki kaka; nzokande, moto oyo akolia lipa oyo Ngai nazali akozala na bomoi ya seko. (aiōn g165)
This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as the manna your fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live to eternity. (aiōn g165)
59 Wana nde ezalaki mateya ya Yesu kati na ndako ya mayangani ya Kapernawumi.
These things he spake in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
60 Sima na koyoka Ye, bayekoli mingi ya Yesu balobaki: — Mateya oyo ezali makasi mingi, nani akoki kondima yango?
Many therefore of his disciples, who heard him, said, Difficult is this discourse, who is able to fathom it?
61 Yesu asosolaki ete bayekoli na Ye bazalaki koyimayima na tina na yango; alobaki na bango: — Boni, maloba oyo ebetisi bino mabaku?
Then Jesus, conscious in himself that his disciples murmured concerning this discourse, said unto them, Doth this stumble you?
62 Bongo ekozala ndenge nini soki bomoni Mwana na Moto kozonga epai Ye azalaki liboso?
What then if ye see the Son of man ascending where he was formerly?
63 Ezali Molimo nde apesaka bomoi; mosuni ezali na eloko te. Maloba oyo nalobi na bino ezali Molimo mpe bomoi.
The Spirit is the life-giving power; the flesh contributeth nothing: the declarations which I make to you, they are spirit, and they are life.
64 Kasi bato mosusu kati na bino bazali kondima te. Solo, wuta na ebandeli, Yesu ayebaki banani bazalaki kondima te, mpe nani akoteka Ye.
But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who the person was that should betray him.
65 Alobaki lisusu: — Yango wana nalobaki na bino: « Moto moko te akoki koya epai na Ngai soki epesameli ye te na Tata. »
And he said, Therefore have I informed you, That no man can come to me, except it be given him of my Father.
66 Banda na tango wana, bayekoli na Ye mingi bazongaki mpe batikaki kolanda Ye.
From that discourse many of his disciples went away back, and no more followed him about.
67 Boye, Yesu alobaki na bantoma zomi na mibale: — Boni, bino mpe bolingi kokende?
Then said Jesus to the twelve, Will ye also go away?
68 Simona Petelo azongisaki: — Nkolo, tokokende epai ya nani? Yo nde ozali na maloba ya bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, unto whom shall we go from thee? thou hast the words of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
69 Biso, tondimi mpe toyebi ete ozali Mosantu ya Nzambe.
And we have believed and known that thou art the Messiah, the Son of the living God.
70 Yesu alobaki na bango: — Boni, ezali Ngai te nde naponaki bino nyonso zomi na mibale? Nzokande, moko kati na bino azali Satana!
Jesus answered them, Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
71 Yesu azalaki nde koloba na tina na Yuda, mwana mobali ya Simona Isikarioti, oyo, kati na bantoma zomi na mibale, asengelaki koteka Ye.
Now he spake of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon: for this man was ready to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.
