Yohannis 5
1 Yeroo xinnoo booddee ayyaana Yihuudootaa tokkotu ture; Yesuusis Yerusaalemitti ol baʼe.
After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Yerusaalem keessa Karra Hoolaa bira haroo afaan Ibraayisxiitiin Beetizaataa jedhamu tokkotu jira; haroon sun gardaafoo shan qaba.
Now there is at Jerusalem near the sheep-market a pool, called in Hebrew Bethesda, with five porticos about it.
3 Gardaafoowwan sana keessas namoonni dhukkubsatan, jechuunis jaamonni, warri naafatanii fi warri dhagni irratti duʼe baayʼeen ciisanii raafama bishaanii eeggachaa turan. [
In these lay a great number of people that were infirm, blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 Ergamaan Gooftaa yeroo yerootti gad buʼee bishaanicha ni raasa ture; raafama bishaanichaa booddee namni jalqabatti bishaan sana keessa seenu kam iyyuu dhukkuba qabu hunda irraa ni fayya ture.]
For an angel descended at a certain season into the pool, and moved the water; the first therefore that went in after the disturbing of the water, was cured of whatever malady he laboured under.
5 Namichi waggaa soddomii saddeeti dhukkubsate tokko achi ture.
And there was a man who had been under illness thirty eight years.
6 Yesuusis yommuu isaa achi ciisu argee akka inni yeroo dheeraa haala kana keessa ture beeketti, “Ati fayyuu barbaaddaa?” jedhee isa gaafate.
Jesus seeing him lie there, and knowing that he had been now a long time ill, saith unto him, Dost thou desire to be cured?
7 Dhukkubsataan sunis, “Yaa Gooftaa, ani nama na gargaaree yommuu bishaanichi raafamutti haroo sana keessa na buusu hin qabu. Yeroo ani seenuu yaaluttis namni biraa na dursee seena” jedheen.
The infirm man answered Him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is moved, to put me into the pool; but while I am coming, another goes down before me.
8 Kana irratti Yesuus, “Kaʼi! Siree kee fudhadhuutii deemi” jedheen.
Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 Namichis yeruma sana fayye; siree isaas fudhatee deeme. Guyyaan wanni kun taʼe sunis Sanbata ture;
And immediately the man was cured: and he took up his bed and walked.
10 Yihuudoonnis namicha fayye sanaan, “Harʼa Sanbata; seerri siree kee baachuu si dhowwa” jedhaniin.
Now this was the sabbath-day, therefore the Jews said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath, it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 Inni garuu, “Namicha na fayyisetu ‘Siree kee fudhadhuu deemi’ naan jedhe” jedheen.
He answered them, He, that made me well, said unto me, Take up thy bed and walk.
12 Isaanis, “Namichi siree kee fudhadhuu deemi siin jedhe sun eenyu?” jedhanii isa gaafatan.
Therefore they asked him, Who is the man that said to thee, Take up thy bed and walk?
13 Namichi fayye sun sababii Yesuus achi hiiqee tuuta iddoo sana ture keessa seeneef inni eenyu akka taʼe hin beekne.
but he, that was healed, did not know who it was: for Jesus had withdrawn himself, there being many people in the place.
14 Yesuusis ergasii namicha sana mana qulqullummaa keessatti argee, “Ati kunoo amma fayyiteerta. Wanni kana caalu akka sitti hin dhufneef siʼachi cubbuu hin hojjetin” jedheen.
Afterwards Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art healed; sin no more, least something worse befal thee.
15 Namichis dhaqee kan isa fayyise Yesuus akka taʼe Yihuudootatti hime.
And the man went away, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had healed him.
16 Kanaafuu sababii inni Sanbataan waan kana hojjeteef, Yihuudoonni Yesuusin ariʼachuu jalqaban.
And for this did the Jews persecute Jesus, and endeavoured to put Him to death; because He had done these things on the sabbath-day.
17 Yesuus garuu, “Abbaan koo hamma ammaatti hojjechaa jira; anis hojjechaan jira” isaaniin jedhe.
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh without intermission, and so do I.
18 Sababii kanaaf Yihuudoonni ittuma caalchisanii isa ajjeesuu barbaadan; inni Waaqaan of qixxeessuudhaan Waaqa iyyuu Abbaa ofii isaa godhee waamaa ture malee Sanbata qofa hin cabsine.
For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill Him, because He had not only broken the sabbath, but had also called God his own Father, making Himself equal with God.
19 Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Ani dhuguman, dhuguman isinitti hima; Ilmi ofii isaatiin waan tokko illee hojjechuu hin dandaʼu; inni waanuma utuu Abbaan isaa hojjetuu arge qofa hojjechuu dandaʼa; waanuma Abbaan hojjetu Ilmis akkasuma hojjetaatii.
Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Verily, verily I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He seeth the Father do: for whatsoever He doth, these also the Son doth in like manner.
20 Abbaan Ilma ni jaallataatii; waan hojjetu hundumas isatti ni argisiisa. Akka isin dinqisiifattaniifis inni hojiiwwan hojiiwwan kanneen caalan iyyuu isatti ni argisiisa.
For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth Him all things, which He Himself doth: and He will shew Him greater than these, that ye may wonder.
21 Akkuma Abbaan warra duʼan duʼaa kaasee jireenya kennuuf sana, Ilmis akkasuma abbaa fedheef jireenya ni kenna.
For as the Father raiseth up the dead and giveth life: even so the Son maketh alive whom He pleaseth.
22 Abbaan eenyutti illee hin muru; murtii hunda garuu Ilmatti kenneera;
For neither doth the Father judge any one, but hath committed all judgement to the Son;
23 kunis akka namni hundi akkuma Abbaaf ulfina kennutti Ilmaafis ulfina kennuuf. Namni Ilmaaf ulfina hin kennine, Abbaa isa Ilma ergeefis ulfina hin kennu.
that all men may honour the Son, even as they honour the Father: he, that honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father that sent Him.
24 “Ani dhuguman, dhuguman isinitti hima; namni dubbii koo dhagaʼu, isa na ergettis kan amanu hundi jireenya bara baraa qaba; murtiittis hin dhiʼaatu; inni duʼa jalaa gara jireenyaatti darbeera. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily I say unto you, he, that heareth my word, and believeth in Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come under condemnation; but is passed from death to life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Ani dhuguman, dhuguman isinitti hima; yeroon warri duʼan itti sagalee Ilma Waaqaa dhagaʼan tokko ni dhufa; ammuma iyyuu dhufeera; warri dhagaʼanis ni jiraatu.
Verily, verily I tell you, that the time is coming, and even now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear shall live.
26 Akkuma Abbaan ofuma isaatiin jireenya qabu sana, Ilmis akkasuma akka ofuma isaatiin jireenya qabaatuuf isaaf kenneeraatii.
For as the Father hath life in Himself, so hath He given also to the Son to have life in Himself.
27 Sababii inni Ilma Namaa taʼeefis Abbaan akka inni murtii kennuuf taayitaa isaaf kenneera.
And hath given Him authority also to execute judgement, because He is the Son of man.
28 “Kana hin dinqisiifatinaa; saʼaatiin itti warri awwaala keessa jiran hundi sagalee isaa dhagaʼan tokko ni dhufaatii.
Wonder not at this; for the time is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 Warri waan gaarii hojjetan duʼaa kaʼuu jireenyaatiif, warri waan hamaa hojjetan immoo duʼaa kaʼuu murtiitiif duʼaa ni kaʼu.
and shall come forth, they that have done good to the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil to the resurrection of damnation.
30 Ani ofii kootiin waan tokko illee gochuu hin dandaʼu; ani akkuman dhagaʼutti nan murteessa; ani fedhii isa na ergee malee fedhii mataa kootii waan hin barbaanneef murtiin koo qajeelaa dha.
I can do nothing of my self: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father that hath sent me.
31 “Ani yoon waaʼee ofii kootii dhugaa baʼe, dhuga baʼumsi koo dhugaa miti.
If I alone bear witness of my self, my testimony is not true in law:
32 Garuu kan waaʼee koo dhugaa baʼu biraa jira; anis akka dhuga baʼumsi inni waaʼee koo kennu sun dhugaa taʼe beeka.
but there is another who testifieth concerning me; and I know that the testimony, which he giveth concerning me, is true.
33 “Isin Yohannisitti ergitaniirtu; innis dhugaa sanaaf, dhugaa baʼeera.
Ye your selves sent unto John, and he bore witness to the truth:
34 Ani dhuga baʼumsa namaa hin fudhadhu; garuu akka isin fayyitaniif wantoota kanneen nan dubbadha.
though I need not testimony from man; but I say these things that ye may be saved.
35 Yohannis ibsaa bobaʼee ifa kennu ture; isinis yeroo xinnoo ifa isaatti gammaduu barbaaddan.
He was indeed a burning and shining light, and for a while ye willingly rejoiced in his light.
36 “Ani garuu dhuga baʼumsa, dhuga baʼumsa Yohannis sana caalu qaba. Hojiin akka ani raawwadhuuf Abbaan natti kenne, kan ani hojjedhu kun iyyuu akka Abbaan na erge mirkaneessaatii.
But I have a testimony greater than John's: for the works which the Father hath given me to perform, the very works which I do, bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me.
37 Abbaan inni na erges ofii isaatii waaʼee koo dhugaa baʼeera. Isin takkumaa sagalee isaa hin dhageenye; bifa isaas takkumaa hin argine.
And the Father who sent me, hath Himself borne witness of me: and yet ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his form.
38 Isin sababii isa inni erge hin amaniniif dubbiin isaa isin keessa hin jiraatu.
And ye have not his word abiding in you; because ye believe not Him, whom He hath sent.
39 Isin Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluudhaan jireenya bara baraa arganna jettanii waan yaaddaniif Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluu sana qorattu. Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluun kunneenis waaʼee koo dhugaa baʼu; (aiōnios g166)
Ye search the scriptures; for ye think that in them ye have eternal life: (aiōnios g166)
40 isin garuu jireenya argachuudhaaf gara koo dhufuu hin barbaaddan.
and they testify of me: and yet ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.
41 “Ani nama irraa ulfina hin fudhadhu;
Though I desire not applause from men:
42 garuu akka isin jaalala Waaqaa of keessaa hin qabne nan beeka.
but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
43 Ani maqaa Abbaa kootiin dhufeera; isin na hin simattan; utuu namni biraa maqaa ofii isaatiin dhufee garuu isa ni simattu.
I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another should come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 Isin yoo wal irraa ulfina argattanii ulfina Waaqa tokkicha biraa dhufu garuu hin barbaanne akkamitti amanuu dandeessu ree?
How can ye believe, who receive applause from each other, and the glory which is from God only, ye seek not?
45 “Waan ani Abbaa duratti isin himadhu hin seʼinaa. Kan isin himatu tokko jira; innis Musee isin abdattan sana.
Think not that I shall accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
46 Utuu Musee amantanii silaa anas ni amantu ture; inni waaʼee koo barreesseetii.
For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote concerning me:
47 Isin erga waan inni barreesse hin amannee, dubbii koo immoo akkamitti amantu ree?”
but if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
