Yohani 5
1 Shakapanu, Yesu kagenditi Yerusalemu kumsambu gwa Wayawudi.
After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Kulaa Yerusalemu, pakwegera na mlyangu gwawagushemiti Mlyangu gwa kondolu, kweniti na litanda lyawalishemiti kwa Shiebraniya Betizata, liweriti na seemu midamu muhanu.
Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.
3 Lipinga likulu lya walweli walivagiti seemu azi, wanalwisi na wavibyeketu na walewelekiti. Su waweriti wankuhepera mashi gatimbuki,
In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.
4 toziya lihoka lya Mlungu kulawa kwa Mtuwa kila mala pakiza na kugatimbula mashi. Mlweri gwa kwanja kwingira mumashi pagatimbuka kaponiziwa.
For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was healed of whatever disease he had.
5 Paliya paweriti na muntu yumu yakalwaliti kwa shipindi sha mivinja milongu mitatu na nane.
And a certain man was there, who had an infirmity thirty and eight years.
6 Yesu pakamwoniti muntu uliya kagonja paliya na kavimaniti kuwera kalwariti kwa shipindi shivuwa, su kamkosiyiti, “Hashi, gufira guponi?”
When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith to him, Wilt thou be healed?
7 Muntu yakalwala kankula, “Mtuwa, kwahera muntu panu gwankuntula mumashi shipindi mashi pagatimbuka. Panjeriti kwingira kumbiti kila mala, muntu yumonga kanongulera.”
The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me.
8 Yesu kamgambira, “Gugoloki, gutoli mkeka gwaku gugendigendi.”
Jesus saith to him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 Palaa paliya muntu uliya kapona. Kagutoliti mkeka gwakuwi na kanja kugendagenda. Shitwatila ashi shitendikiti Mulishaka lya kwoyera.
And immediately the man was healed, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
10 Wakulu wa Wayawudi pawawoniti muntu ulii yakaponiziwitwi, womberi wamgambira, “Leru ndo lishaka lya kwoyera! Kwahera ulekeziwu kwa gwenga kupapa mkeka gwaku.”
The Jews therefore said to him that was cured, It is the sabbath: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 Kumbiti Yomberi kawagambira, “Muntu yakamponiziyiti kang'ambiriti ntoli mukeka, ng'ending'endi.”
He answered them, He that healed me, the same said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Nawomberi wamkosiyiti, “Ndo gaa yakakugambiriti gutoli mukeka gwaku na gugendigendi?”
Then they asked him, What man is that who said to thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?
13 Kumbiti yomberi kamumana ndiri muntu yakamuponiziiti, mana Yesu kaweriti kalihanganiya mulipinga lya wantu.
And he that was healed knew not who it was: for Jesus had withdrawn himself, a multitude being in that place.
14 Shapakanu Yesu kaliwoniti na muntu yakamponiziyiti Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, su kamgambira, “Gupikani vinu gwamkomu, guleki kutenda vidoda ama vitwatira vidoda virawili kwaku.”
Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art cured: sin no more, lest a worse thing come to thee.
15 Shakapanu muntu uliya kagenda, kawagambira wakolamlima wa Shiyawudi kuwera Yesu ndo yakamuponiziiti.
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, who had healed him.
16 Su Wayawudi wanjiti kumgaziya Yesu, toziya yomberi katenditi shitwatila ashi sha kuponiziya mulishaka lya Kwoyera.
And therefore the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath.
17 Yesu kawagambira womberi, “Tati gwangu kankutenda lihengu mashaka goseri, naneni viraa ntenda lihengu.”
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh until now, and I work.
18 Visoweru avi viwatenda wakulu wa Shiyawudi wendereyi kusakula ntambu ya kumlaga Yesu, toziya kalitenda ndiri weri lilagaliru lya lishaka lya Kwoyera na katakuliti kuwera Mlungu ndo Tati gwakuwi na viraa vilii pakalitenda kuwera gambira Mlungu.
Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
19 Yesu kawagambiriti womberi, “Nukugambirani nakaka, Mwana kaweza ndiri kutenda shoseri gweka yakuwi, katenda shilii shakawoniti Tati gwakuwi pakatenda. Vilii vyakatendaga Tati, viraa vilii ndo vyakatenda Mwana.
Then answered Jesus and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing by himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for whatever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
20 Toziya Tati kamfira Mwana na kamlangalira yomberi vyoseri vyakatenditi mweni, viraa vilii hakamlanguzii vitwatira vikulu kuliku avi, mwenga hamlikangashi.
For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that himself doeth: and he will show him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.
21 Handa virii Tati pakawazyukisiyiti wahowiti na kuwapanani ukomu, ntambu iraayi Mwana kawapanani ukomu yawafira walii.
For as the Father raiseth the dead, and giveth life to them; even so the Son giveth life to whom he will.
22 Tati hapeni katozi muntu yoseri, kumbiti lihengu lyoseri lya kutoza kamupa Mwana,
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment to the Son:
23 su wantu woseri wamgohilili Mwana ntambu yawamgohelera Tati. Yakamgohelira ndiri Mwana, kamgohalila ndiri Tati. Tati ndo mweni yakamtumiti Mwana.
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father who hath sent him.
24 “Nakugambirani nakaka, woseri yawapikanira visoweru vyangu na kumjimira ulii yakantumiti, hakaweri na ukomu wa mashaka goseri. Hapeni katozwi, ira kapita kala kulawa mukuhowa na kwingira muukomu. (aiōnios g166)
Verily, verily, I say to you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but hath passed from death to life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Nukugambirani nakaka, shipindi shankwiza, kayi shisoka kala, ndo sheni wahowiti hawapikiniri liziwu lya Mwana gwa Mlungu na woseri yawapikanira hawalikali.
Verily, verily, I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
26 Gambira Tati ntambu yakawera shanzu sha ukomu, hera hangu viraa ntambu yakamtenda Mwana gwakuwi kuwera shanzu sha ukomu.
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
27 Na kamupiti Mwana uwezu wa kutoza, toziya yomberi ndo Mwana gwa Muntu.
And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
28 Namulikangasha shitwatila ashi, shipindi shankwiza wawahowiti woseri hawapikiniri liziwu lyakuwi
Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
29 nawomberi hawalawi mumapumba mwawu, woseri walii yawatenditi viherepa hawazyuki na kulikala, na woseri yawatenditi vidoda, hawazyuki na kutozwa.”
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 “Neni weza ndiri kutenda shoseri kwa uwezu waneni. Neni ntenda hera ntambu ya Mlungu pakang'ambira, su kutoza kwaneni ndo teratera, toziya njeriti ndiri kutenda shirii shanfira, kumbiti ntenda shirii shakafira ulii yakantumiti.
I can of my own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who hath sent me.
31 “Handa panulitakulila namweni, upitawu wa neni hapeni ujimilwi kuwera wa nakaka.
If I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is not true.
32 Kumbiti kwana yumonga ndo mweni katakulaga upitawu kuusu neni, naneni nuvimana kuwera vyoseri vyakatakula kuusu neni ndo vyanakaka.
There is another that beareth witness concerning me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth concerning me is true.
33 Mwenga mtumiti ujumbi kwa Yohani, nayomberi kawutakuliti nakaka.
Ye sent to John, and he bore witness to the truth.
34 Neni nuwutumbira ndiri upitawu wa wantu, kumbiti ntakula vitwatira avi mpati kulopoziwa.
But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye may be saved.
35 Yohani kaweriti gambira lumuliku lwaluweriti lwakuyaka na kulangala na mwenga musekereriti kulangala kwa shipindi shididiki hera.
He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.
36 “Neni nanawu upitawu kuusu namweni ndo weni mkulu mnu kuliku ulii wa Yohani. Shantenda ndo sheni shakung'ambira kuwera Tati ndo yakantumiti.
But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness concerning me, that the Father hath sent me.
37 Tati ndo yakantumiti, viraa kananguziya. Mwenga hapeni mpikaniri liziwu lyakuwi ama mwoni sheni shakuwi,
And the Father himself, who hath sent me, hath borne witness concerning me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.
38 na visoweru vyakuwi hapeni vikali mumyoyu mwenu, toziya mumjimira ndiri ulii yakamtumiti.
And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
39 “Mwenga mgalola weri Malembu Mananagala, toziya mulihola kuwera mngati mwakuwi hampati ukomu wa mashaka goseri, kumbiti Malembu galaa galiya gantakula! (aiōnios g166)
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. (aiōnios g166)
40 Pamuhera na hangu, mwenga mlema kwiza kwaneni mpati ukomu.
And ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.
41 “Ndolera ndiri ukwisa kulawa kwa wantu.
I receive not honour from men.
42 Kumbiti nuwamana mwenga, nuvimana kuwera ufiru wa Mlungu kwahera mumyoyu mwenu.
But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.
43 Neni niza kwa uwezu wa Tati gwangu, su munshemera ndiri, Kumbiti mwenga muwashemeraga wantu pawiza muuwezu wawu.
I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.
44 Mfira kuwanka uzyumi kwa wantu, kumbiti mfira ndiri kujera kutenda vitwatira kwa ulii yakawera Mlungu gweka yakuwi, hashi mweza kunjimira neni?
How can ye believe, who receive honour one from another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
45 “Namlihola handa neni hanuwasitaki mwenga kwa Tati gwangu. Musa ndo mweni, mwenga mumtumbiriti mweni ndo hakawasitaki.
Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.
46 Handa nakaka mwenga memjimiri Musa, viraa memnjimiri naneni, toziya Musa kalembiti kuusu neni.
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote concerning me.
47 Kumbiti mugajimiri ndiri galii gakalembiti Musa, hamuwezi hashi kuvijimira visoweru vyangu?”
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
