Joon 5
1 Erah lih adi, Jisu Jerusalem ni kuwaang raangtaan ih wangta.
Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem when the Jews were having [another] celebration.
2 Jerusalem ni Saap Paakaawan reeni juutum esiit je ah erah di taapbulaang bangnga angta; Hebrew jengdi erah suh Bethjatha liiha.
At one of the gates [into the city] called the Sheep Gate, there is a pool. In our language we call it Bethzatha. [Around the pool] were five open areas with roofs over them.
3 Erah taapbulaang khui adi khoisatte hantek jupthiin rumta erah di edook, ekoong, nyia huuimu nang angta.
Many people were lying there. They were people who were blind, lame, or paralyzed.
4 Neng loong ah juutum lengphui ah bansok rumta, erah juutum ah Teesu rangsah ah kah ano ju ah kalengphui thukta, o mina tiimjaat khoisat ang abah uh erah juutum lengphui adi o jaakhoh temkata erah kadeeta.
5 Erah di mih wasiit rookjom pang asat sat arah angta.
One of those who was there had been paralyzed for 38 years.
6 Jisu ih erah di loongjupta mih ah japtup ano, sa hantek satla ngeh ih jat eta; erah thoidi chengta, [An de esuh enook nih ih lu?]
Jesus saw him lying there and found out that the man had been like that for a long time. He said to the man, “Do you want to become well?”
7 Khoisatte ah ih ngaakbaatta, [Chuupha, juutum ah lengphui adi nga datthiin kaatte o uh takajeeka; erah tokdi nopwang taatchung leh, jaakhoh wahoh kanop wang ah.]
The paralyzed man replied to him, “[Yes], sir, [I want to get well, but] there is no one to help me get down into the pool when the water is stirred {stirs}. While I am trying to get [to the pool], someone else always gets there before me.”
8 Jisu ih heh suh liita, [toonchap uh, an dam ah toonpi uno, khoom uh.]
Jesus said to him, “Get up! Then pick up your mat and walk!”
9 Erah baat kano erah mih ah lakdamdam ih deeta; heh dam ah toonpi ano phang toonkhoomta. Erah sa ah Jehudi naangtongsa ja angta,
The man immediately was healed. He picked up his mat and started walking! The day on which this happened was a Jewish day of rest.
10 erah thoidi Jehudi ngoong awang loong ih khoisat deeta warah suh li rumta, [Chiinnyah Jehudi naangtongsa, erah raangtaan ih an dam toonpi ah seng hootthe jun ih tapunka.]
So the Jewish [leaders] said to the man who had been healed, “Today is (the Sabbath/our rest day), and [in our Jewish] laws [it is written that people should not work on our] ([Sabbath/rest day]), so you should not be carrying your mat!”
11 Heh ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Nga khoisat deesiitte warah ih dam ah toonpi thuk hangno khoom thuk tahang.]
The man replied to them, “The man who healed me, he himself said to me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk!’”
12 Neng ih chengta, [An suh emah re thukte ah o ah?]
They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick it up and walk!’?”
13 Enoothong khoisat deeta warah ih Jisu ah o angta ah tajatta, erah di mih hantek angkano, Jisu ah erah dowa doksoon ih kata.
But since Jesus had disappeared in the crowd [without telling the man his name], the man did not know who it was [who had healed him].
14 Lini, Jisu ih erah mih ah Rangteenook ni japtup ano baatta, [Boichaat uh, amadi an khoisat ah de etu; erah raangtaan ih rangdajih lakah reetheng erah khodoh ethih phomok cham uh.]
Later, Jesus found the man in the Temple [courtyard]. He [told the man his name, and] said to him, “Listen! You are healed! So stop sinning! If you do not stop sinning, something will happen to you that will be worse [than the illness you had before]!”
15 Eno erah mih ah doksoon kah ano Jehudi ngoong awang loong asuh baatkaat rumta heh khoisat deesiitte ah Jisu angta ngeh ah.
The man went away and told the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] that it was Jesus who had healed him.
16 Erah thoidi Jehudi naangtongsa di deesiit kano, Jehudi loong ah ih Jisu ah phang siikhaam rumta.
So the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] started to harass Jesus, because Jesus was doing these things (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day).
17 Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Seng Wah ah saarookwet ih mokala, eno Ngah uh emamah ih mokah ang.]
Then Jesus replied to them, “My Father has always been working every day, [including] ([the Sabbath/the day of rest]), up until now. I am doing the same thing!”
18 Heh jengkhaap ah ih Jehudi ngoong awang loong ah heh tek haat suh ehanhan ih samthun thuk rumta; naangtongsa hootthe luulu lathet hoom, Rangte asuh seng Wah ngeh ih li ano Rangte ah heteewah thanthan ih samthunha.
The Jewish leaders [SYN] considered that he was disobeying their rules about (the Sabbath/the day of rest), and that by saying that God was his Father, he was making himself equal with God. And they considered that both these things were grounds for killing him. So they tried even harder to find a way to kill him.
19 Erah thoidi Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, [Ngah ih amiisak baat rumhala; Hesah ah heh thungthung ih tiim uh tami reeka; Hewah tiim mokala erah sok ano reela. Hewah tiim reela, Hesah uh erah re ah.
Jesus replied to them by saying, “You need to know this: I can do nothing by my own [authority]. I do only the [kind of] things that I see [my] Father doing. Whatever kinds of things my Father is doing, those are the things I am doing.
20 Tiimnge liidi Hewah ih Hesah ah rapne ih minchanha eno heh tiimjih mokala erah ah noisok ha. Arah nang ih elong mootkaatjih uh noisok ih ah, eno sen loong erah suh paatja e an.
[My] Father loves me, and he shows me everything that he is doing. He will show me [the miracles] that [he wants me to do] that will be greater than the ones that [you have already seen me do], so that you may be amazed.
21 Hewah ih tek nawa ngaaksaat thuk ano roidong koha, erah likhiik ih Hesah ih uh o suh kotthung ah erah suh roidong koh ah.
[For example], just like [my] Father causes people who have died to become alive again, I will give [eternal] life to everyone that I want to.
22 Adoleh Hewah ih wasiit taan uh tadande ka. Hesah suh jen dande ih thuk ha,
Furthermore, [my] Father is not the one who judges people [concerning their sins]. Instead, he has given to me the work of judging people,
23 tiimnge liidi Hesah ah Hewah likhiik ih toom choomjoh rum ah ngeh ah. O ih Hesah lasoomtu ka heh daapkaatte Hewah rah uh tasoomtu ka.
in order that all people may honor me, just like they honor [my] Father. [My] Father [considers that] anyone who does not honor me is not honoring [him], the one who sent me.
24 [Ngah ih amiisak baat rumhala; o mina ih nga jeng boichaat ano nga daapkaatte ah hanpi ha erah mina taang ni lathoonka roidong ah je ah. Heh abah tadande ka ang ah, heh tek lam dowa roidong ko jen nopwang eta. (aiōnios g166)
Listen to this carefully: Those who hear my message and believe that [God] is the one who sent me have eternal life. [God will] not (condemn them/say that he will punish them). They are no longer separated from God. Instead, they have [eternal] life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Ngah ih amiisak baat rumhala; saapoot ah thok e hala—jenthok ih taha—tekte loong ah ih Rangte Sah root japchaat adoh, boichaatte loong ah ih roidong choh ah.
Listen to this carefully: There will be a time when those who are (spiritually dead/separated from God) will hear the voice of me, (the Son of God/the man who is also God). In fact, it is that time already. Those who hear [and pay attention to my message] will have [eternal] life.
26 Hewah heteteewah ah, roidong lampo angla likhiik, Hesah rah uh erah likhiikkhiik roidong lampo.
[My] Father has [power to] make things live. Similarly, he has given me the [power to enable] people to live [eternally].
27 Eno Hesah asuh mi dande esuh chaan aphaan ah koha, tiimnge liidi heh ah Mina Sah.
Because I am the one who came from heaven, he has given me the authority to judge people [concerning their sins].
28 Arah suh nak paatja an; tekte loong ah ih heh root boichaat saapoot ah ethok ehala
Do not be surprised about that, because there will be a time when all people who have died will hear my voice,
29 eno neng loong ah mangbeng nawa dokkhoom eha; oh jaase ih mokata erah loong ah ngaaksaat ano ething tong ah, eno o ethih mokata erabah ngaaksaat ih adoh dut haat ih ah.
and they will become alive again. Those who have lived good [lives] will rise [from their graves] and live forever. But those who have lived evil lives will rise, and I will (condemn them/declare that I will punish them [for their sins]).
30 [Nga chaan nawa ih ngah ih tiim uh tajen reekang; Rangte ih baat halang jun ih ba dande hang, erah raangtaan ih ngah ih dande hang ah epun ang ah, tiimnge liidi nga tenthun nawa ih tareekang, enoothong nga daapkaatte warah ih tiim thun ha erah mootkaatte.
I do not do anything [like that] by my own authority. I judge people only according to what I hear [my Father tell me]. I will judge people fairly, because I do not want to please only myself. Instead, I want to please [my Father], who sent me.
31 [Mih suh nga teewah tiit ah mokbaat angbah, ngah ih marah baat hang erah elang ekah ngeh ih mih ih takapka ang ah.
If I were the [only] one to tell people about myself, [people could rightly say that] what I say is not true.
32 Enoothong nga tiit baatte wahoh eje, eno ngah ih jat ehang nga tiit marah heh ih baat ha erah amiisak tiit ah baat ha.
But there is someone else who tells people about me. And I know that what he tells people about me is true.
33 Sen ih Joon reeni heh jeng boichaat suh mih daap wantan, eno Joon ih ami tiit ah baatta.
As for you, when you sent messengers to John [the Baptizer to ask about me], he told the truth [about me].
34 Ngah mina dowa haaki eje jaatjaat angtheng ngeh ih taliikang; arah jenglang abah sen khoh toompui an ngeh ih jenglang.
I do not [need that] people tell others [about me]. But instead, I am reminding [you about what John told people about me], in order that you will [believe it and] be saved {[God] will save you}.
35 Joon ah weetook phaakjaaja ih lu arah likhiik, eno sen loong ah heh weephaak asuh pootsiit eroon etan.
[John’s message about me] (OR, [John]) [MET] was [like] a lamp that shines brightly. For a short while you were willing to be made happy [by that message] {to let [that message] make you happy}.
36 Enoothong Joon ih haaki kotahan nang ih nga teeteewah ih haaki korumhala ah elong; ngah ih tiimjih mokalang, erah seng Wah ih mootkaat thuk halang, erah mokalang loong ah jun ih nga ah seng Wah ih kaatthuk halang ngeh ih jatthuk rumhala.
But there is something else that tells you about me. [It should prove who I am] more than what John [said about me]. The miracles [PRS] that [my] Father told me to do, the miracles that I am performing, show (OR, prove) to people that my Father sent me.
37 Eno nga daapkaatte, seng Wah ih uh, nga teewah tiit ah ju jatthuk halan. Sen ih heh root uh maang taat chaatkan nyia hethe hekhoh uh maang thaak tupkan,
Furthermore, [my] Father, who sent me, tells people about me. You have never heard his voice or seen him.
38 eno heh tiitkhaap uh sen ten ni tathiin kan, tiimnge liidi heh daapkaatte warah ah tahanpi kan.
Furthermore, you have not believed in [me], the one he sent. So you have not [believed] his message in your inner beings.
39 Sen ih Rangteele ah wet ehan, sen ih mokthun han erah doh lathoonka roidong ah choh e ih ngeh ah. Eno Rangteele adi nga tiit baat ha! (aiōnios g166)
You carefully study (OR, Study) the Scriptures, because you think that by [studying] them you will [find the way to] have eternal life. And those Scriptures tell people about me! (aiōnios g166)
40 Rah bah uh lathoonka roidong chosuh nga reeni wangsuh o uh tanook kan.
But you refuse (to come to me/to believe my message) in order that you may have [eternal] life.
41 [Ngah ih mina ih phoongpha tajamkang.
It does not [matter to] me whether people praise me.
42 Enoothong sen tiimjaat mina ah ngah ih jat ih rumhala, eno ngah ih jat ih rumhala sen ten ni Rangte minchan ah taje kan.
But you [want people to praise you]. I know that within yourselves you do not love God.
43 Seng Wah chaan ah kap angno ra halang, enoothong sen ih nga jeng ah tathang kan; erah thaknang eh, marah marah heh chaan nawa ih ra hala, erah jeng ah ba thang han.
Although I have come to earth with my Father’s authority [MTY], you do not accept me. But if someone else comes with his own authority [MTY], you accept him!
44 Sen ih sen jaachi ni phoongpha mui ah jamhan, enoothong Rangte taangnawa ra hala esiit luulu ah ih toom gu hang ngeh ih tasamthun kan; erah raangtaan ih sen ih mamah ma ih hanpi he?
You accept your praising each other, but you do not try to do things that will result in God himself praising you. So (there is no way you can believe [in me]!/how can you believe [my message]?) [RHQ]
45 Nakmok thun an, seng Wah suh ngah ih sen tiit thetbaatte ngeh ah. Sen thetbaatte abah, sen ih tuumaang han, Moses ah ba ang ah.
But do not think that I am the one who will accuse you while [my] Father is listening! No, it is Moses who will accuse you! You thought that he would [defend you].
46 Sen ih Moses ah amiisak ih hanpi tanbah, sen ih ngah uh hanpi etheng ang tahe, tiimnge liidi Moses ih nga tiit ah raangta.
Moses wrote about me, so if you had believed what he [wrote], you would have believed what I [said]
47 Enoothong heh ih tiim raangta erah lahanpi phiino, Ngah ih liihang ah batang ah mamah ma ih hanpi an?]
But because you did not believe what he wrote [about me], (you will certainly not believe what I say!/how will you believe what I say?) [RHQ]”
