< Yoane 8 >

1 Kasi Yesu akendeki na ngomba ya banzete ya olive.
Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2 Na tongo-tongo ya mokolo oyo elandaki, azongaki kati na lopango ya Tempelo; mpe lokola bato nyonso bayaki kozingela Ye, avandaki mpe abandaki koteya bango.
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3 Balakisi ya Mobeko mpe Bafarizeo bakumbaki mwasi moko oyo bakutaki azali kosala ekobo; batambolisaki ye kati na ebele ya bato mpe batiaki ye liboso ya Yesu, na miso ya bato nyonso.
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4 Balobaki na Yesu: — Moteyi, mwasi oyo asali ekobo; bakuti ye penza azali kosala yango!
They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5 Kati na mibeko, Moyize apesa biso mitindo ya koboma basi ya boye na mabanga. Bongo yo, olobi nini na tina na yango?
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6 Balobaki bongo mpo na kotiela Yesu motambo mpe koluka nzela ya kofunda Ye. Kasi Yesu agunzamaki; mpe na nzela ya mosapi na Ye, abandaki kokoma na mabele.
This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7 Lokola bakobaki kaka kopesa Ye mituna, Yesu atelemaki mpe alobaki na bango: — Tika ete moto oyo, kati na bino, asala nanu lisumu te abamba ye libanga moto ya liboso.
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8 Bongo Yesu agunzamaki lisusu mpe azongelaki kokoma na mabele.
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9 Tango bayokaki bongo, bango nyonso babendanaki moko sima na moninga, kobanda na mikolo. Mpe Yesu atikalaki Ye moko. Lokola mwasi yango azalaki kaka wana kati na lopango ya Tempelo,
And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10 Yesu atombolaki moto mpe alobaki na ye: — Mwasi, bato oyo bayei kofunda yo bazali wapi? Boni, ata moko te akateli yo etumbu?
When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11 Mwasi azongisaki: — Nkolo, moko te! Bongo Yesu alobaki na ye: — Ngai mpe nakateli yo etumbu te. Kende; kasi, kobanda lelo, kosala lisusu masumu te.]
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.
12 Yesu alobaki lisusu na bato: — Nazali pole ya mokili; moto nyonso oyo alandaka Ngai akotikala kotambola kati na molili te, kasi akozwa pole ya bomoi.
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
13 Bafarizeo balobaki na Ye: — Ozali kotatola mpo na yo moko, litatoli na yo ezali ya solo te.
The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
14 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Ezala soki natatoli mpo na Ngai moko, litatoli na Ngai ezali ya solo, pamba te nayebi epai nawuti mpe epai nazali kokende; kasi bino, boyebi te ezala epai nawuti to epai nazali kokende.
Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
15 Bino, bosambisaka na ndenge ya bomoto; kasi Ngai, nasambisi moto ata moko te.
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.
16 Mpe ezala soki esalemi ete Ngai nasambisi moto, kosambisa na Ngai ezali ya solo, pamba te nazali Ngai moko te: Tata oyo atindi Ngai azali elongo na Ngai.
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
17 Ekomama kutu, kati na mibeko na bino, ete litatoli ya bato mibale nde ezalaka ya solo.
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 Ngai, nazali kopesa litatoli na tina na Ngai moko, mpe Tata oyo atindaki Ngai azali lisusu kotatola na tina na Ngai.
I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
19 Bongo batunaki Ye: — Tata na yo azali wapi? Yesu azongisaki: — Boyebi Ngai te, mpe boyebi Tata na Ngai te. Soki boyebaki Ngai, bolingaki mpe koyeba Tata na Ngai.
Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.
20 Yesu alobaki bongo, wana azalaki koteya kati na lopango ya Tempelo, pene ya esika oyo bazalaki kotia makabo; mpe moto ata moko te amekaki kokanga Ye, pamba te tango na Ye ekokaki nanu te.
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
21 Yesu alobaki na bango lisusu: — Ngai, nazali kokende; mpe bokoluka Ngai, kasi bokokufa kati na lisumu na bino. Epai Ngai nazali kokende, bino, bokoki te koya kuna.
Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.
22 Na bongo, Bayuda batunanaki bango na bango: — Boni, azali na makanisi ya komiboma, yango wana alobi: « Epai Ngai nazali kokende, bino, bokokoka te koya kuna? »
Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Bino, bozali bato ya se; kasi Ngai, nawuti na Likolo. Bino, bozali bato ya mokili oyo; kasi Ngai, nazali ya mokili oyo te.
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 Yango wana nalobaki na bino: « Bokokufa kati na lisumu na bino; » pamba te soki bondimi te ete « Nazali oyo azali, » bokokufa kati na lisumu na bino.
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Batunaki Ye: — Boye ozali nani? Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Oyo nazali koloba na bino wuta na ebandeli.
Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 Nazali na makambo mingi ya koloba na tina na bino mpe ya kosambisa kati na bino; kasi Ye oyo atindaki Ngai azali solo, mpe makambo oyo nayokaki epai na Ye, yango nde nazali koyebisa mokili.
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.
27 Kasi bazalaki kososola te ete Yesu azalaki koloba na bango na tina na Tata.
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.
28 Alobaki lisusu: — Sima na bino kotombola Mwana na Moto nde bokoyeba ete, Ngai, nazali oyo azali, mpe ete nasalaka eloko moko te na ndenge na Ngai moko, kasi nalobaka kolanda makambo oyo Tata ateyaki Ngai.
Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
29 Ye oyo atindaki Ngai azali elongo na Ngai; atikaki Ngai moko te, pamba te, Ngai, nasalaka tango nyonso makambo oyo esepelisaka Ye.
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
30 Wana Yesu azalaki koloba bongo, bato mingi bandimaki Ye.
As he spake these words, many believed on him.
31 Bongo Yesu alobaki na Bayuda oyo bandimaki Ye: — Soki bowumeli kati na Liloba oyo nateyaki bino, bokozala penza bayekoli na Ngai,
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;
32 bokoyeba solo, mpe solo ekokangola bino.
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 Bazongiselaki Ye: — Biso, tozali bato ya libota ya Abrayami, totikala kozala te bawumbu ya moto; ndenge nini oloba ete tokokoma bansomi?
They answered him, We be Abraham’s seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: moto nyonso oyo asalaka masumu azali mowumbu ya lisumu.
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 Nzokande, mowumbu azalaka kati na libota tango nyonso te, kasi mwana azali kati na yango mpo na seko. (aiōn g165)
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. (aiōn g165)
36 Boye, soki Mwana akangoli bino, bokozala penza bansomi.
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 Nayebi ete bozali bato ya libota ya Abrayami; nzokande, bozali koluka koboma Ngai, pamba te boboyi koyamba Liloba na Ngai.
I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 Ngai, nazali koloba makambo oyo namonaki epai ya Tata na Ngai; bino mpe bozali kosala makambo oyo boyokaki epai ya tata na bino.
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.
39 Bazongisaki: — Ezali Abrayami nde azali tata na biso. Yesu alobaki na bango: — Soki bozalaki bana ya Abrayami, bolingaki kosala misala oyo Abrayami asalaki.
They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham’s children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 Kasi sik’oyo, na esika ete bosala yango, bozali koluka koboma Ngai, Ngai oyo nalobi na bino solo oyo nayokaki epai ya Nzambe! Abrayami atikala kosala bongo te.
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Bozali penza kosala misala ya tata na bino. Bazongisaki: — Tozali bana ya makangu te; tozali kaka na tata moko: Nzambe!
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
42 Yesu alobaki na bango: — Soki Nzambe azalaki penza Tata na bino, bolingaki kolinga Ngai, pamba te nawutaki epai ya Nzambe, mpe ezali kolanda mokano na Ye nde nazali sik’oyo awa. Nayaki na ndenge na Ngai moko te, kasi Ye nde atindaki Ngai.
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Mpo na nini bozali kososola te elobeli na Ngai? Ezali mpo ete bozali kokoka te koyoka makambo oyo nazali koloba na bino.
Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ezali Satana nde azali tata na bino, mpe bolingi nde kaka kokokisa posa ya tata na bino. Wuta na ebandeli, ye azala mobomi; avandaka kati na solo te, pamba te solo ezalaka te kati na ye. Tango akosaka, alobaka penza makambo oyo ewutaka kati na ye; pamba te azali mokosi mpe tata ya lokuta.
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 Kasi Ngai, lokola nalobi solo, yango wana bozali kondima Ngai te.
And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.
46 Nani kati na bino akoki kotalisa Ngai ete nasali masumu? Soki nalobaka solo, mpo na nini bondimaka Ngai te?
Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?
47 Moto oyo azali ya Nzambe ayokaka makambo oyo Nzambe alobaka; kasi soki bino boyokaka te, ezali mpo ete bozali ya Nzambe te.
He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.
48 Bayuda bazongiselaki Ye: — Omoni! Yango wana tolobaki na biso ete ozali moto ya Samari mpe ozali na molimo mabe kati na yo.
Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
49 Yesu azongisaki: — Nazali na molimo mabe te kati na Ngai. Ngai nazali nde kopesa Tata na Ngai lokumu, kasi bino bozali kotiola Ngai.
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.
50 Nalukaka lokumu na Ngai moko te; ezali na Moko oyo alukaka yango mpe asambisaka.
And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
51 Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: moto oyo akobatela Liloba na Ngai kati na ye akotikala kokufa te. (aiōn g165)
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 Na yango, Bayuda balobaki na Ye: — Tomoni sik’oyo ete ozali na molimo mabe kati na yo! Pamba te Abrayami asila kokufa, basakoli mpe lokola; bongo yo ozali koloba ete moto oyo akobatela Liloba na yo kati na ye akotikala kokufa te! (aiōn g165)
Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death. (aiōn g165)
53 Boni, yo okanisi ete oleki Abrayami, tata na biso, oyo akufa to mpe oleki basakoli nyonso oyo bakufa? Yango yo, ozali komimona nani?
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?
54 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Soki namipesaki Ngai moko lokumu, lokumu na Ngai elingaki kozala na tina te. Kasi ezali Tata na Ngai, Ye oyo bino bozali koloba ete azali Nzambe na bino, nde azali kopesa Ngai lokumu.
Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
55 Solo, bino, boyebi Ye te; kasi Ngai, nayebi Ye. Soki nameki koloba ete nayebi Ye te, wana nakozala mokosi lokola bino. Kasi nayebi Ye mpe nabatelaka Liloba na Ye.
Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.
56 Tata na bino, Abrayami, atondaki na esengo, wana akanisaki ete akomona mokolo na Ngai. Amonaki yango mpe atondaki na esengo.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
57 Bayuda balobaki na Ye: — Nini? Yo moto oyo okokisi nanu te ata mibu tuku mitano ya mbotama, ozali koloba ete omonaki Abrayami!
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58 Yesu azongisaki: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: liboso ete Abrayami abotama, Ngai nazali.
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 Tango Bayuda bayokaki bongo, balokotaki mabanga mpo na kobamba Yesu, kasi abombamaki mpe abimaki libanda ya lopango ya Tempelo.
Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
