Yokaana 7
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, Yesu n’alaga e Ggaliraaya, kubanga teyayagala kubeera mu Buyudaaya, kubanga Abayudaaya baali bamunoonya okumutta.
After that Iesus wet about in Galile and wolde not go about in Iewry for the Iewes sought to kill him.
2 Naye embaga y’Abayudaaya eyitibwa ey’Ensiisira yali eneetera okutuuka.
The Iewes tabernacle feast was at honde.
3 Baganda ba Yesu ne bamugamba nti, “Vva wano, olage mu Buyudaaya, abayigirizwa bo balabe ebyamagero by’okola.
His brethren therfore sayde vnto him: get ye hence and go into Iewry yt thy disciples maye se thy workes yt thou doest.
4 Tosobola kwatiikirira nga weekwese. Kale obanga, okola ebintu ebyo, weerage eri ensi.”
For ther is no man yt doeth eny thing secretly and he him selfe seketh to be knowen. Yf thou do soche thinges shewe thy selfe to the worlde.
5 Baganda be nabo tebaamukkiriza.
For as yet his brethre beleved not in him.
6 Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Ekiseera kyange eky’okugenda tekinnatuuka. Naye mmwe muyinza okugenda mu kiseera kyonna we mwagalira.
Then Iesus sayd vnto them: My tyme is not yet come youre tyme is all waye redy.
7 Mmwe ensi teyinza kubakyawa, naye Nze enkyawa kubanga ngitegeeza ebikolwa byayo ebibi.
The worlde canot hate you. Me it hateth: because I testify of it that the workes of it are evyll.
8 Mmwe mwambuke ku mbaga. Nze sijja kwambuka ku mbaga eno, kubanga ekiseera kyange tekinnatuuka.”
Go ye vp vnto this feast. I will not go vp yet vnto this feast for my tyme is not yet full come.
9 Bwe yamala okubagamba ebyo n’asigala mu Ggaliraaya.
These wordes he sayde vnto them and abode still in Galile.
10 Baganda be bwe bamala okwambuka ku mbaga naye n’ayambuka, mu kyama so si mu lwatu.
But assone as his brethren were goone vp then went he also vp vnto the feast: not openly but as it were prevely.
11 Awo Abayudaaya ne bamunoonya ku mbaga nga beebuuza nti, “Omusajja oli, ali ludda wa?”
Then sought him the Iewes at ye feast and sayde: Where is he?
12 Ne wabaawo oluvuuvuumo lungi mu bantu. Abamu ne bagamba nti, “Mulungi.” Naye abalala nga bagamba nti, “Nedda, alimba abantu.”
And moche murmurynge was ther of him amonge the people. Some sayde: He is good. Wother sayde naye but he deceaveth the people.
13 Kyokka olw’okutya Abayudaaya, tewaaliwo amwogerako mu lwatu.
How be it no ma spake openly of him for feare of the Iewes
14 Awo mu makkati g’embaga Yesu n’ayambuka mu Yeekaalu n’ayigiriza.
In ye middes of the feast Iesus went vp into the temple and taught.
15 Abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya ne beewuunya nga bagamba nti, “Omuntu ono ayinza atya okumanya okusoma so nga tasomangako?”
And the Iewes marveylled sayinge: How knoweth he ye scriptures seynge yt he never learned?
16 Awo Yesu kwe kubaddamu nti, “Nze sibayigiriza byange ku bwange, wabula eby’oyo eyantuma.
Iesus answered them and sayde: My doctrine is not myne: but his that sent me.
17 Buli ayagala okukola Katonda by’ayagala, ategeera obanga bye njigiriza byange ku bwange oba bya Katonda.
If eny man will do his will he shall knowe of the doctrine whether it be of God or whether I speake of my selfe.
18 Ayogera ku bubwe anoonya kitiibwa kye, naye oyo anoonya ekitiibwa ky’oyo eyantuma wa mazima so n’obutali butuukirivu tebuba mu ye. Musa teyabawa amateeka?
He that speaketh of him selfe seketh his awne prayse. But he that seketh his prayse that sent him the same is true and no vnrightewesnes is in him.
19 Ku mmwe tekuliiko n’omu akwata mateeka. Kale lwaki musala amagezi okunzita?”
Dyd not Moses geve you a lawe and yet none of you kepeth ye lawe? Why goo ye aboute to kyll me?
20 Ekibiina ky’abantu ne baddamu nti, “Oliko dayimooni! Ani asala amagezi okukutta?”
The people answered and sayde: thou hast the devyll: who goeth aboute to kyll the?
21 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Nakola ekikolwa kimu ku Ssabbiiti buli muntu ne yeewuunya.
Iesus answered and sayde to them: I have done one worke and ye all marvayle.
22 Musa kyeyava abalagira okukomolebwa, okukomolebwa tekwatandikira ku Musa wabula kwatandikira ku bajjajjammwe; ne ku Ssabbiiti mukomola omuntu.
Moses therfore gave vnto you circumcision: not because it is of Moses but of the fathers. And yet ye on the Saboth daye circumcise a man.
23 Obanga mukomola ku Ssabbiiti etteeka lya Musa lireme okumenyebwa, kale lwaki Nze munsunguwalira olw’okuwonya omuntu ku Ssabbiiti, n’aba mulamu ddala?
If a man on the Saboth daye receave circumcision without breakinge of the lawe of Moses: disdayne ye at me because I have made a man every whit whoale on the saboth daye?
24 Temusalanga musango okusinziira ku ndabika, naye musalenga omusango ogw’ensonga.”
Iudge not after the vtter aperaunce: but iudge rightewes iudgement.
25 Awo abantu abamu ab’omu Yerusaalemi ne beebuuzaganya nga bagamba nti, “Ono si ye muntu gwe banoonya okutta?
Then sayd some of them of Ierusalem: Is not this he who they goo aboute to kyll?
26 Kale wuuno ayigiriza lwatu, ate tebaliiko kye bamugambako. Osanga abakulembeze bategedde nti omuntu ono ye Kristo!
Beholde he speaketh boldly and they saye nothinge to him. Do the rulars knowe in dede that this is very Christ?
27 Naye tumanyi omuntu ono gy’ava; so nga Kristo bw’alijja tewaliba n’omu amanya gy’ava.”
How be it we knowe this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh no man shall knowe whence he is.
28 Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’akyayigiriza mu Yeekaalu n’akangula ku ddoboozi n’agamba nti, “Ddala mummanyi ne gye nva mumanyiiyo. Sajja ku bwange wabula ekituufu nti oyo eyantuma gwe mutamanyi.
Then cryed Iesus in ye temple as he taught sayinge: ye knowe me and whence I am ye knowe. And yet I am not come of my selfe but he yt sent me is true whom ye knowe not.
29 Nze mmumanyi, kubanga nava gy’ali, era ye yantuma.”
I knowe him: for I am of him and he hath sent me.
30 Awo ne basala amagezi okumukwata, kyokka tewaali amukwatako, kubanga ekiseera kye kyali tekinnaba kutuuka.
Then they sought to take him: but no ma layde hondes on him because his tyme was not yet come.
31 Naye bangi mu bibiina by’abantu ne bamukkiriza, ne bagamba nti, “Kale Kristo bw’alijja, alikola eby’amagero ebisinga eby’ono byakoze?”
Many of the people beleved on him and sayde: when Christ cometh will he do moo miracles then this man hath done?
32 Awo Abafalisaayo ne bawulira abantu nga boogera ku Yesu mu bwama. Awo bakabona abakulu n’Abafalisaayo ne batuma abaweereza baabwe okumukwata.
The pharises hearde that the people murmured suche thinges about him. Wherfore ye pharises and hye prestes sent ministres forthe to take him.
33 Awo Yesu n’agamba nti, “Nzija kumala nammwe ebbanga ttono, ndyoke nzireyo eri oyo eyantuma.
Then sayde Iesus vnto the: Yet am I a lytell whyle with you and then goo I vnto him that sent me.
34 Mulinnoonya, naye temugenda kundaba, nga gye ndi, mmwe temuyinza kutuukayo.”
Ye shall seke me and shall not fynde me: and where I am thyther can ye not come.
35 Awo Abayudaaya ne beebuuzaganya nti, “Omuntu ono alaga wa gye tutalimulabira? Ayagala kugenda eri abo abaasaasaanira mu Buyonaani, ayigirize Abayonaani?
Then sayde the Iewes bitwene the selves: whyther will he goo that we shall not fynde him? Will he goo amonge the gentyls which are scattered all a broade and teache the gentyls?
36 Ategeeza ki bw’agamba nti, ‘Mulinnoonya, naye temulindaba?’ Era nti, ‘Gye ndaga temuyinza kutuukayo?’”
What maner of sayinge is this that he sayde: ye shall seke me and shall not fynde me: and where I am thyther can ye not come?
37 Awo ku lunaku olw’embaga olusembayo, olusingira ddala obukulu, Yesu n’ayimirira n’ayogera n’eddoboozi ery’omwanguka n’agamba nti, “Buli alina ennyonta, ajje gye ndi anywe!
In the last daye that great daye of the feaste Iesus stode and cryed sayinge: If eny man thyrst let him come vnto me and drinke.
38 Ng’Ekyawandiikibwa bwe kigamba nti buli akkiriza Nze emigga egy’amazzi amalamu girikulukuta nga gifuluma mu mutima gwe!”
He that beleveth on me as sayeth the scripture out of his belly shall flowe ryvers of water of lyfe.
39 Yesu yali ayogera ku Mwoyo Mutukuvu, abamukkiriza gwe baali bagenda okufuna, kubanga Mwoyo oyo yali tannagabibwa, kubanga Yesu yali tannaba kugulumizibwa.
This spak he of the sprete which they that beleved on him shuld receave. For the holy goost was not yet there because that Iesus was not yet glorifyed.
40 Abantu abamu mu kibiina bwe baawulira ng’ayogera bw’atyo, ne bagamba nti, “Ddala omuntu ono ye Nnabbi.”
Many of the people when they hearde this sayinge sayd: of a truth this is a prophet
41 Abalala ne bagamba nti, “Omuntu ono ye Kristo.” Naye abalala ne bagamba nti, “Nedda, Kristo tayinza kuba ng’ava mu Ggaliraaya.”
Other sayde: this is Christ. Some sayde: shall Christ come out of Galile?
42 Kubanga Ekyawandiikibwa kigamba nti: Kristo wa kuva mu zzadde lya Dawudi, era nga wa kuzaalibwa mu Besirekemu, ekibuga kya Dawudi mwe yali.
Sayeth not the scripture that Christ shall come of the seed of David: and out of the toune of Bethleem where David was?
43 Awo ekibiina ne kyesalamu olwa Yesu.
So was ther dissencion amonge the people aboute him.
44 Abamu ne baagala okumukwata, kyokka ne wabulawo amukwatako.
And some of them wolde have taken him: but no man layed hondes on him.
45 Awo abaweereza b’abakabona abakulu n’Abafalisaayo ne baddayo eri bakabona abakulu n’Abafalisaayo. Abakulembeze Ne bababuuza nti, “Lwaki temumuleese?”
Then came ye ministres to ye hye prestes and pharises. And they sayde vnto the: why have ye not brought him?
46 Abaweereza ne baddamu nti, “Ebigambo by’ayogera bya kitalo, tetubiwulirangako.”
The servautes answered never man spake as this man doeth.
47 Abafalisaayo ne babagamba nti, “Era nammwe abakyamizza?
Then answered the the pharises: are ye also disceaved?
48 Waliwo n’omu ku bakulembeze wadde ku Bafalisaayo eyali akkiririzza mu muntu oyo?
Doth eny of the rulers or of the pharises beleve on him?
49 Naye ekibiina ky’abantu bano abatamanyi mateeka, bakolimiddwa!”
But the comen people whiche knowe not ye lawe are cursed.
50 Awo Nikodemo, omu ku bo eddako eyagenda eri Yesu, n’abuuza nti,
Nicodemus sayde vnto them: He that came to Iesus by nyght and was one of them.
51 “Amateeka gaffe gakkiriza okusalira omuntu omusango nga tannaba kuwozesebwa okutegeera ky’akoze?”
Doth oure lawe iudge eny man before it heare him and knowe what he hath done?
52 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Naawe wava Ggaliraaya? Nnoonyereza, ojja kulaba nti e Ggaliraaya teva nnabbi.”
They answered and sayde vnto him: arte thou also of Galile? Searche and loke for out of Galile aryseth no Prophet.
53 Awo ne baabuka, buli omu n’addayo eka.
And every man went vnto his awne housse.
