Yohani 7
1 Pa aga, Yesu kaweriti kankugendagenda kulaa ku Galilaya. Kafiriti ndiri kugendagenda kumkowa wa Yudeya toziya wakulu wa Wayawudi waweriti wankufira kumlaga.
AND Jesus after these things travelled about in Galilee: for he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
2 Shipindi sha msambu gwa Wayawudi gwa visasa guweriti gwapakwegera.
And a feast of the Jews was nigh, the feast of tabernacles.
3 Su, walongu wakuwi wamgambira, “Guwuki panu gugendi Yudeya, su wafundwa waku wawoni vitwatira vyagutenda.
Then said his disciples to him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest.
4 Muntu katenda ndiri vitwatira kwa kubada pakafira kamanikani kwa wantu. Toziya gutenda vitwatira avi, guleki wantu wa pasipanu poseri wavimani kuusu gwenga.”
For no man doeth any thing in secret, yet seeketh himself to appear publicly: if thou doest these things, exhibit thyself to the world.
5 Ata walongu wakuwi wamjimira ndiri.
For even his own brethren did not believe on him.
6 Yesu kawagambira, “Shipindi shangu shashifaa shankali kusoka. Mwenga kila shipindi shifaa.
Jesus therefore saith to them, My proper time is not yet come: but your time is always ready.
7 Wantu wa pasipanu hapeni wizi kuwakalalira mwenga, neni wankalalira toziya neni ntakula kwawu kuwera matendu gakuwi gadoda.
The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil.
8 Mwenga mgendi kumsambu. Neni hapeni ng'endi ku msambu aku vinu, toziya saa yaneni yaifaa yankali kusoka.”
Go ye up to this feast: for I am not yet going up to this feast, because my fixed time is not yet arrived.
9 Katakuliti aga, shakapanu kendereyiti kulikala Galilaya.
Thus speaking to them then, he continued in Galilee.
10 Walongu wakuwi pawagenditi kala kumsambu, Yesu kagenditi viraa, kumbiti kagenditi ndiri pawamlola ira kagenditi kwa kulififa.
But as soon as his disciples were gone up, then went he also himself up to the feast: not in public, but as in concealment.
11 Wakulu wa Wayawudi waweriti wankumsakula ku msambu aku. Womberi wakosiya, “Ka koshi?”
The Jews then sought for him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
12 Kuweriti mapwepweziyu nentu kuusu Yesu mulipinga lya wantu. Wamonga watakuliti, “Yesu ndo muntu muheri.” Na wamonga watakuliti, “Ndala! Kankuwapayira wantu.”
And there was a great murmur concerning him among the multitude: some said, Surely he is a good man: others said, No; he only deceiveth the people.
13 Kumbiti kwahera muntu yakatakuliti kuusu Yesu paweru, toziya waweriti wankuwatira wakulu wa Shiyawudi.
Yet no person spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
14 Msambu agu pagusokiti pakati na kumalirika, Yesu pakagenditi ku Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, kanjiti kufunda.
But now at the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
15 Wakulu wa Shiyawudi walikangashiti nentu, walongiti, “Iwera hashi muntu ayu kerewa nentu, nayomberi kagenditi ndiri kushuli?”
And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man the scriptures, not being a scholar?
16 Yesu kawankula, “Shilii shanfunda shilawa kwaneni ndiri, ira shilawa kwa Mlungu, ndo mweni yakantumiti.
Jesus answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
17 Muntu yakafira kutenda galii gagafira Mlungu, haguvimani handa mafundu gangu galawa kwa Mlungu, ama neni nfunda kwa uwezu wangu namweni.
If any man will do his will, he shall know respecting the doctrine, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself.
18 Muntu yakatakula kwa uwezu wakuwi mweni, kankusakula uzyumi wakuwi mweni. Kumbiti ulii yakasakula uzyumi wa ulii yakantumiti, ayu ndo mwaminika na mngati mwakuwi kwahera ufyangu woseri.
He that speaketh from himself, seeks his own individual honour: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and iniquity in him there is none.
19 Hashi, Musa kakupanana ndiri Lilagaliru? Ata hangu, kwahera ata yumu gwenu yakalijimila Lilagaliru. Hashi, mfira mndagi?”
Hath not Moses given you the law, yet none of you practises the law? Why do ye seek to kill me?
20 Lipinga lya wantu limwankula, “Gwenga gwana shamshera! Gani kafira kukulaga?”
The multitude answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who is seeking to kill thee?
21 Yesu kawankula, “Kwana liuzauza limu lyantenditi, namwenga mlikangashiti.
Jesus answered and said unto them, I have performed one work, and ye all marvel.
22 Musa kawalagaliriti mwenga muwayingiziyi jandu wana wenu, shitiba ashi sha Musa ndiri ira wambuyi wenu ndo wanjiti kushitenda shitiba ashi na mumwingiziya jandu mwana mulishaka lya Kwoyera.
Because Moses ordered you circumcision; (not that it comes from Moses, but from our ancestors; ) so ye circumcise a man on the sabbath-day.
23 Handa pamumwingiziya mwana jandu mulishaka lya Kwoyera su mleka ndiri Lilagaliru lya Musa, iwera hashi munkalalira neni toziya numponiziya muntu mulishaka lya Kwoyera?
If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses should not be violated; are ye incensed against me, because I have made a man whole on the sabbath-day?
24 Mleki kutoza kwa kunja hera, mtozi kwa shipimu sha teratera.”
Judge not by appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
25 Wantu wamu wa Yerusalemu watakuliti, “Ndo ayu ndiri, muntu yawamsakula wamlagi?
Then said some of the people of Jerusalem, is not this the man whom they are seeking to kill?
26 Mloli! Kawagambira pota na kufifa, womberi watakula ndiri shintu shoseri kuusu yomberi! Hashi, iwezekana kuwera wakulu wavimana nakaka kuwera muntu ayu ndo Kristu?
And, lo! he speaketh openly, and they say not a word to him. Do the rulers certainly know that this man is really the Messiah?
27 Kumbiti Kristu pakaweriti kankwiza, kwahera muntu yoseri yakavimaniti kuwera Kristu hakalawili koshi, kumbiti tuvimana kuwera muntu ayu kwakalawira!”
But we know this man whence he is: but when the Messiah cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
28 Yesu pakaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, yomberi katakuliti kwa liziwu, “Mumana neni na muvimana kwanawa? Niza ndiri kwa uwezu wangu mweni. Ulii yakantumiti ndo mwaminika nentu, mwenga mumana ndiri,
Then spake Jesus aloud as he was teaching in the temple, and said, Ye both know me, and ye know from whence I am: and I came not of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
29 Kumbiti neni numumana, toziya ndawa kwakuwi, ndo mweni yakantumiti.”
But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30 Womberi wafiliti kumkamula Yesu, kumbiti kwahera muntu yakaweza kumbata yomberi toziya saa yakuwi yankali kusoka.
Then they sought to apprehend him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 Wantu wavuwa mulipinga wamjimiriti na walonga, “Kristu pakiza hakatendi mauzauza nentu kuliku aga gakatenditi muntu ayu?”
But many of the multitude believed on him, and said, When the Messiah cometh, will he do greater miracles than those which this man doth?
32 Mafalisayu wapikiniriti wantu pawapwepa visoweru avi kuusu Yesu. Su womberi pamuhera na watambika wakulu wa Numba ya Mlungu wawatumiti wanjagila wambati Yesu.
The Pharisees heard the people muttering these things respecting him; and the Pharisees and chief priests sent officers to apprehend him.
33 Yesu katakula, “Nankali namwenga kwa shipindi shididini, su hanumugenderi ulii yakantumiti.
Then said Jesus unto them, A little while longer I am with you, and I am going to him that sent me.
34 Hamunsakuli kumbiti hapeni mumoni, toziya hapeni mwizi pahala palii panwera.”
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.
35 Wakulu wa Shiyawudi walitakuziana weni, “Muntu ayu hakagendi koshi ndo peni hapeni tumpati? Hakagendi kwa lushi zya Wagiriki ndo peni wantu wetu Wayawudi pawalikala na hakawafundi Wagiriki?
Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will this man go, that we shall not find him? will he go to the dispersed among the Grecians, and teach the Greeks?
36 Kamanisha shishi pakatakula, ‘Hatumsakuli kumbiti hapeni tumwoni na palii pahala pakawera hapeni tuwezi kusoka?’”
What is this saying which he hath spoken, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come?
37 Lishaka lya kupelera lya msambu agu liweriti lishaka likulu. Yesu kagolokiti na kutakula kwa liziwu likulu, “Yakayumuluwa, kizi kwaneni,
Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood up and spake aloud, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.
38 na yoseri yakanjimira neni kalandi. Gambira Malembu Mananagala ntambu yagalembwa, ‘Yakanjimira neni lushemba lwa mashi ga ukomu haganyiririki kulawa mumoyu mwakuwi.’”
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from his belly shall rivers flow of living water.
39 Yesu katakuliti aga kuusu Rohu, ndo mweni yawamjimira yomberi hawamuwanki. Shipindi shilii, Rohu Mnanagala kaweriti kankali kusoka toziya Yesu kaweriti kankali kukwiswa.
(Now he spake this in reference to the Spirit, which they who believe on him should afterwards receive: for as yet the Holy Ghost was not given; because Jesus was not yet glorified.)
40 Wantu wamu pakati pa lipinga lilii wapikiniriti visoweru avi, watakula, “Nakaka muntu ayu ndo ulii mbuyi gwa Mlungu!”
Many then of the multitude, when they heard this declaration, said, This man is certainly a prophet.
41 Wamonga watakula, “Ayu ndo Kristu!” Kumbiti wamonga watakuliti, “Kristu hapeni kizi kulawa ku Galilaya!
Others said, He is the Messiah. But others said, No: for cometh the Messiah out of Galilee?
42 Malembu Mananagala galembwiti hangu kuwera Kristu hakaweri mushiyiwuku sha Mfalumi Dawudi na hakayiwuki ku Betirehemu, lushi lyakalikaliti Dawudi.”
Doth not the scripture say, That the Messiah cometh of the seed of David, and from the town of Bethlehem, whence David originally was?
43 Su, kulawiriti malekaniru kuusu yomberi pakati palipinga lilii lya wantu.
There was a division therefore among the multitude on account of him.
44 Wantu wamu wafiriti kumbata Yesu, kumbuti kwahera yakajeriti kumbata.
Now some of them were desirous to apprehend him; but no one laid hands upon him.
45 Wanjagila pawawuyiti kwa Watambika wakulu na Mafalisayu, womberi wawakosiya, “Iwera hashi mumjega ndiri Yesu?”
Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisee; and they said to them, Why have ye not brought him?
46 Wanjagila wawankula, “Kwahera muntu yakapatiti nakamu kutakula gambira muntu ayu ntambu yakatakuliti!”
The officers answered, Never did man before speak in such a manner as this man.
47 Mafalisayu wawakosiya, “Hashi na mwenga wakuzyangani viraa?
The Pharisees then replied to them, Are ye also deluded?
48 Hashi, muwoniti kala yumu gwa wakulu wa wantu, ama yumu gwa Mafalisayu yakamjimiriti?
Hath any one of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
49 Lipinga ali lya wantu livimana ndiri Lilagaliru lya Musa, lipangirwa!”
But this rabble, which knoweth not the law, is accursed.
50 Yumu gwa Mafalisayu kaweriti Nikodemu ndo mweni pakwanjira paliya kamgenderiti Yesu. Su, kawagambiriti womberi,
Nicodemus saith unto them, (the same person who came to him by night, being one of their body, )
51 “Lilagaliru lyetu liweza ndiri kumtoza muntu pamberi pa kumpikinira kwanja na kuvimana shakatenda”
Doth our law condemn a man, without first hearing his defence, and knowing what he hath done?
52 Womberi wamwankula, “Hashi, gwenga viraa gulawira Galilaya? Su kagabetuli Malembu Mananagala, nagwenga haguwoni kuwera Galilaya hapeni kalawiri mbuyi gwa Mlungu!”
They answered and said to him, Art thou not from Galilee too? Search and see: for a prophet, out of Galilee, never was raised up.
53 Kila muntu kagenditi ukaya.
So each went to his own home.
