Yohannis 7
1 Kana booddee Yesuus Galiilaa keessa deddeebiʼaa ture; sababii Yihuudoonni isa ajjeesuu barbaadaniif inni Yihuudaa keessa hin deddeebine.
After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 Ayyaanni Daasii Yihuudootaa dhiʼaatee ture.
Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.
3 Obboloonni isaas akkana jedhaniin; “Akka barattoonni kee warri achii waan ati hojjettu arganiif kaʼiitii Yihuudaa dhaqi.
His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.
4 Namni utuu ifaan ifatti beekamuu barbaaduu dhoksaatti waa hojjetu hin jiruutii. Atis sababii waan kana hojjettuuf addunyaatti of mulʼisi.”
For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”
5 Obboloonni isaa iyyuu isatti hin amanne tureetii.
For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.
6 Yesuusis akkana jedheen; “Yeroon koo amma illee hin geenye; isiniif garuu yeroon hundi mijaaʼaa dha.
Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
7 Addunyaan isin jibbuu hin dandaʼu; ana garuu akka hojiin isaa hamaa taʼe waanan itti dhugaa baʼuuf na jibba.
The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
8 Isin gara Ayyaana sanaa dhaqaa. Ani garuu waan yeroon koo amma illee hin gaʼiniif gara Ayyaanichaatti ol hin baʼu.”
You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”
9 Inni waan kana isaanitti dubbatee Galiilaatti hafe.
Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.
10 Garuu erga obboloonni isaa gara Ayyaanichaatti ol baʼanii booddee innis utuu ifaan ifatti hin taʼin dhoksaadhaan ol baʼe.
But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
11 Yihuudoonnis Ayyaanicha irratti, “Namichi sun eessa jira?” jedhanii gaafachaa isa barbaadaa turan.
The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”
12 Namoota gidduuttis waaʼee isaa guungummii guddaatu ture. Namoonni tokko tokko, “Inni nama gaarii dha” jedhan. Warri kaan immoo, “Akkas miti; inni nama dogoggorsa” jedhan.
There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”
13 Garuu waan Yihuudoota sodaataniif namni tokko iyyuu ifaan ifatti waaʼee isaa hin dubbanne.
Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 Gara walakkaa Ayyaanichaattis Yesuus mana qulqullummaa seenee barsiisuu jalqabe.
But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
15 Yihuudoonnis dinqifatanii, “Namichi kun akkamitti utuu hin baratin beekumsa akkanaa qabaate?” jedhan.
The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”
16 Yesuusis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Barsiisni koo kan isa na ergeeti malee kan koo miti.
Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.
17 Namni fedhii Waaqaa gochuu barbaadu kam iyyuu barsiisni koo Waaqa biraa dhufuu fi dhufuu baachuu isaa yookaan ani ofuma kootiin dubbachuu fi dubbachuu baachuu koo ni beeka.
If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.
18 Namni ofuma isaatiin dubbatu inni ofuma isaatii ulfina argachuu barbaada; namni ulfina kan isa erge sanaa barbaadu garuu inni nama dhugaa ti; jalʼinnis isa keessa hin jiru.
He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
19 Museen seera isinii kenneera mitii? Isin keessaa garuu namni tokko iyyuu seera sana hin eegu. Isin maaliif na ajjeesuu barbaaddu?”
Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”
20 Jarris deebisanii, “Hafuura hamaatu si keessa jira; eenyutu si ajjeesuu barbaada?” jedhaniin.
The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”
21 Yesuusis deebisee akkana jedheen; “Ani hojii tokko hojjennaan hundi keessan dinqifattan.
Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.
22 Museen seera dhagna qabaa isinii kenne; dhagna qabaa garuu abbootiitu jalqabe malee Musee miti; isinis Sanbataan nama dhagna qabdu.
Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.
23 Akka seerri Musee hin cabneef erga namni tokko Sanbataan dhagna qabachuu dandaʼee, isin maaliif sababii ani Sanbataan dhagna namaa guutuu fayyiseef natti aartu?
If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?
24 Murtii qajeelaa kennaa malee, bifa qofa ilaaltanii hin murteessinaa.”
Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
25 Kana irratti namoota Yerusaalem keessaa tokko tokko akkana jedhan; “Inni kun namicha isaan ajjeesuuf barbaadan sana mitii?
Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?
26 Kunoo inni ifatti baʼee dubbata; isaanis homaa isaan hin jenne. Abbootiin taayitaa akka inni Kiristoos taʼe sirriitti beekaniiruu laata?
Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?
27 Taʼus namichi kun nama eessaa akka taʼe nu beekna. Kiristoos yommuu dhufutti garuu inni eessaa akka dhufu namni tokko iyyuu hin beeku.”
However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
28 Yesuus utuu mana qulqullummaa keessatti barsiisuu sagalee isaa ol fudhatee akkana jedhe; “Isin na beektu; akka ani eessaa dhufe illee beektu. Ani ofii kootiin hin dhufne; inni na erge sun dhuga qabeessa. Isin garuu isa hin beektan;
Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.
29 ani garuu sababiin isa biraa dhufee fi sababii inni na ergeef isa nan beeka.”
I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”
30 Kana irratti isaan isa qabuu yaalan; garuu waan saʼaatiin isaa hin gaʼiniif namni tokko iyyuu harkaan isa hin tuqne.
They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
31 Taʼus namoonni baayʼeen isatti amanan. Isaanis, “Kiristoos yommuu dhufutti namicha kana caalaa mallattoo hojjetaa?” jedhan.
But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”
32 Fariisonnis utuu namoonni waaʼee isaa waan akkanaa guungumanuu dhagaʼan. Luboonni hangafoonnii fi Fariisonni Yesuusin qabsiisuudhaaf eegdota mana qulqullummaa ergan.
The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
33 Yesuusis akkana jedheen; “Ani yeroo gabaabaa isin wajjin jira; ergasii gara isa na erge sanaa nan dhaqa.
Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
34 Isin na barbaaddu; garuu na hin argattan; iddoo ani jirus dhufuu hin dandeessan.”
You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”
35 Yihuudoonnis akkana waliin jedhan; “Namichi kun akka nu isa hin argineef eessa dhaquu yaade laata? Gara saba keenya warra Giriikota keessa faffacaʼanii dhaqee Giriikota barsiisaa?
The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?
36 ‘Isin na barbaaddu; garuu na hin argattan; iddoo ani jirus dhufuu hin dandeessan’ jechuun isaas maal jechuu isaatii?”
What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’?”
37 Guyyaa Ayyaanichi itti hobbaʼu, guyyaa guddaa sana, Yesuus kaʼee dhaabatee sagalee guddaadhaan akkana jedhe; “Eenyu iyyuu yoo dheebote, gara koo dhufee haa dhugu.
Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
38 Akkuma Katabbiin Qulqulluun jedhe nama natti amanu kam iyyuu laga bishaan jireenyaatu garaa isaa keessaa burqa.”
He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water.”
39 Kunis waaʼee Hafuura Qulqulluu warri isatti amanan argachuuf jiranii dubbachuu isaa ti. Sababii Yesuus amma illee ulfina hin argatiniif Hafuuri Qulqulluun hamma yeroo sanaatti hin kennamne tureetii.
But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
40 Namoota sana keessaa tokko tokko yommuu dubbii kana dhagaʼanitti, “Kun dhugumaanuu Raajicha” jedhan.
Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is truly the prophet.”
41 Warri kaan immoo, “Inni Kiristoosii dha” jedhan. Namoonni kaanis akkana jedhan; “Kiristoos Galiilaadhaa dhufaa?
Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
42 Akka Kiristoos sanyii Daawit keessaa dhalatuu fi akka inni Beetlihemii, ganda Daawitii dhufu Katabbiin Qulqulluun ni dubbata mitii?”
Hasn’t the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”
43 Akkasiin waaʼee Yesuus irratti garaa garummaan waldaa gidduutti uumame.
So a division arose in the multitude because of him.
44 Isaan keessaas tokko tokko isa qabuu barbaadan; garuu namni tokko iyyuu harkaan isa hin tuqne.
Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.
45 Eegdonni sun gara luboota hangafootaatii fi gara Fariisotaatti deebiʼan; isaanis, “Isin maaliif isa hin fidin?” jedhanii eegdota sana gaafatan.
The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”
46 Eegdonnis, “Takkumaa namni akka namicha kanaatti hin dubbanne” jedhanii deebisan.
The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
47 Fariisonnis deebisanii akkana jedhan, “Isinis gowwoomfamtaniirtuu?
The Pharisees therefore answered them, “You aren’t also led astray, are you?
48 Bulchitoota keessaa yookaan Fariisota keessaa namni tokko iyyuu isatti amaneeraa?
Have any of the rulers or any of the Pharisees believed in him?
49 Sabni seera hin beekne kun garuu abaaramaa dha.”
But this multitude that doesn’t know the law is cursed.”
50 Niqoodemoos inni duraan Yesuus bira dhaqee fi isaan keessaas tokko taʼe sun akkana isaaniin jedhe;
Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them,
51 “Seerri keenya utuu isa irraa hin dhagaʼin, waan inni hojjetes utuu hin beekin nama tokkotti ni muraa?”
“Does our law judge a man unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”
52 Isaanis, “Atis nama Galiilaatii? Akka raajiin Galiilaadhaa hin kaane qoradhuu bira gaʼi” jedhaniin. [
They answered him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee.”
53 Ergasii isaan hundinuu gara mana isaaniitti galan.
Everyone went to his own house,
