Yohana 7
1 Pamande ye mambo ega oYesu asafiliye eshi hu Galilaya, afuatanaje sagaasongwelwe abhala huu Yahudi afwatanaje huuyahudi wapangaga ahubude.
After these things Jesus continued to move about in Galilee, since He did not wish to move about in Judea because the Jews were wanting to kill Him.
2 Eshi eshikulukulu sha Yahudi, eshi kulukulu ye Vibanda, ya pepee.
Now the Jews' Feast of Tabernacles was near.
3 Aholo wakwe nkabhozya, “Sogala apantu epa obhale hu Yahudi, abhanafunzi bhaho bhagalole amambo gobhomba.
So His brothers said to Him: “Leave here and go up into Judea so your disciples also may see the works that you are doing,
4 Nomo wabhomba lyolyonti hu shi siri nkashe omwene yoyo ahwanza ajulihane pazelu. Nkashe obhomba ega, hwilanje wewe hwabha munsi.”
because no one does anything in secret while he actually wants to be in evidence. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world!”
5 Hata bhaholo bhakwe sebhamwetesheye.
For not even His brothers were believing into Him.
6 O Yesu nkabhabhozya, “Insiku zyane sezifishile bado, ila ensiku zyenyu kila muda zihweli.
So Jesus says to them: “My time is not here yet, but your time is always available.
7 Abhamunsi sebhawezizye abhavitwe amwe, ila bhamvitwa ane afuatane embahakikisya aje ambombo zyao mbibhi.
The world cannot hate you, but does hate me, because I testify about it that its works are malignant.
8 Zubhaji abhale hu shikulukulu; ane sembala hu shikulukulu afuatanaje omuda gwane guli seele afishe.”
You guys go up to this feast; I am not going up yet to this feast, because my time has not yet fully come.”
9 Nayanga enongwa izyo hwa bhahala, asageye hu Galilaya.
So upon saying these things to them He stayed on in Galilee.
10 Hata sheshi, aholo bhakwe na bhabhalile hushikulukulu wope nkahabhala, sio apazelu bali pasirisiri.
Now when His brothers had gone up to the feast, then He too went up, not openly but in secret like.
11 Ayahudi bhali bhahufuata hushikulukulu naje, “Ali hwii?”
So the Jews were looking for Him at the feast and saying, “Where is he?”
12 Hwali no luyangano lwinji muhati mlubhongano ahusu omwene. Wamo bhajile, “Muntu mwinza.” Bhamwabho wajile, “Ndadi abhatezya olubhongano.”
And there was a lot of murmuring about Him among the crowds. Some were saying, “He is good”; others were saying, “On the contrary, he's deceiving the people.”
13 Hata sheshi nomo wayanjile pazelu ahusu omwahale afuatanaje bhabhogope Ayahudi.
However, no one was talking openly about Him for fear of the Jews.
14 Ensiku zye shikulukulu nazyahali katikati, oYesu azubhile abhale mshibhanza na hwande asambelezye.
Now when the feast was already half over Jesus went up into the temple and started to teach.
15 Ayahudi bhaswigaga na nayanje, “Huu namna wele omuntu amanye enongwa enyinji? Sasambeleye nkahashe.”
And the Jews were marveling saying, “How is this man learned, not having been educated?”
16 O Yesu ayanga naje, “Emanyizyo zyane se zyaline, ila zyoola wantumile.
So Jesus answered them and said: “What I teach is not mine, but His who sent me.
17 Nkashe wawonti anzasongwe abhombe olusongwo lwakwe omwene, anzamanye emanyizyo ezi, aje zifuma hwa Ngolobhe, au aje eyanga afume huline nene.
If anyone wants to do His will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.
18 Shila wayanga gagafuma hwa mwene yoyo ahwenza umwamu wakwe, na shila wahwanza oumwamu wakwe omwene wantumile, omuntu omuntu oyo we lyoli, na muhati yakwe nahumo abhombeshe zye malenka.
Someone who speaks on his own is seeking his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
19 O Musa sagabhapiye amwe endajizyo? Ila nomo hata weka hulimwe wabhomba endajizyo. Yenyu muhwanza ambude?
“Did not Moses give you the Law? And yet not one of you keeps the Law! Why do you want to kill me?”
20 Amabhongano gayanga, “Aje oli na mapepo. Wenu wahanza ahubude?”
The crowd answered and said, “You must have a demon! Who wants to kill you?”
21 O Yesu wayanga wagaa, “Ombombile embombo yeeka, namwe mwenti muswijile afuatanajenesho.
Jesus answered and said to them: “I did one work, and you all marvel.
22 O Musa abhapiye etohara (sio aje efuma hwa Musa, ila efuma hwa daada), na hu Sabato mhutahiri omuntu.
Consider this: Moses gave you circumcision (not that it comes from Moses, but from the patriarchs), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
23 Nkashe omuntu anzaposhele etohara hwi siku lye Sabato aje endajizyo zya Musa zinganje nankanywe, yeenu munvitwa ane afwatanaje ebheshele omuntu abhe mwinza kabisa hu Sabato?
If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the Law of Moses won't be broken, are you angry at me because I made a whole man well on the Sabbath?
24 Mganje alonje alengane sha mlola, ila alonje hulyoli.
Stop judging on the basis of appearances, but judge the righteous judgment.”
25 Bhamo bhamo uYelusalemu bhaga, “Seyayono wabhahu mwanza ahude?
Now some of the Jerusalemites were saying: “Isn't this the man they are wanting to kill?
26 Enya, oyanga pazelu, na sebhayanga hahonti alengane no mwene. Sawezizye aje egabha aje alongozi bhamenye elyoli aje ono yo Kilisiti, ewezizye abhe?
Yet look! He is speaking openly and they are saying nothing to Him. Could it be true that the rulers know that this is really the Christ?
27 Timenye aje omuntu ono afumila hwii. O Kilisti lwayenza, atasheshii, nomo wailola aje afuma hwii.”
On the other hand, we know where this man is from; but whenever the Christ comes nobody knows where He is from.”
28 O Yesu afumiaga izu lyakwe mwibhanza, asambele zyaga naje, “Amwe mwenti mumenye ane na mumeenye hwe fuma. Senamenye hubele gwane, ila omwene wantumile welyoli, semumenye omwene.
So Jesus called out in the temple, teaching and saying: “You do know me, and you know where I am from. Yet I have not come on my own, but the One who sent me is true, whom you do not know.
29 Emenye omwene afuatanaje enfumile hwa mwene na antumile.”
I do know Him because I am from Him, and He sent me.”
30 Bhalenga ahaate, ila nomo ata omo wabhosezye okhono gwakwe ahusu omwene afuatanaje esaa yakwe yaali seele afishe.
So they tried to arrest Him, yet no one laid a hand on Him because His hour had not yet come.
31 Hata sheshi bhinji mubhongano bhamwetesheye. Bhajile, “Kilisiti lwa yeenza, aibhomba embombo nyinji ashile zyabhombile omuntu ono?”
Now many of the crowd were believing into Him, and they were saying, “Whenever the Christ comes He won't perform more signs than these which this man has done, will He?”
32 Amafarisayo bhabhonvwezye amawongano wakwepelena enongwa ezi eshi oYesu, na agosi bha dimi na Mafarisayo bhatumile amaafisa aje ahukhate.
The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, so the Pharisees and the chief priests sent operatives to arrest Him.
33 O Yesu nkayanga, “Ali seele insiku ndodo embabhe pandwemo namwe, napamande naibhala hwa mwene wantumile.
Then Jesus said: “For a little while I am still with you, and then I go to the One who sent me.
34 Munanza ila semubhandole; hula hwembala, semubhawezye ahwenze.”
You will look for me and not find me; also, where I am you cannot come.”
35 Abhayaudi bhayangama bhene hu bhene, “Omuntu ono anzabhale hwii aje tipotwe ahulole? Anzabhale hwa bhabhanyampene mhati ya yunanu bhamanyinzye Ayunani?
So the Jews said among themselves: “Where does this fellow intend to go that we won't find him? He doesn't intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, does he?
36 Nongwa bhole ene yayanjile, 'Mwainanza nantele semwainaga; hula hwembala semwaiwezya ahwenze'?”
What word is this that he spoke, ‘You will look for me and not find me’; also, ‘where I am you cannot come’?”
37 Esalezi hunsiku zya mwisho, isiku igosi lye shikulukulu, pYesu ahemeleye azurizwe izu ajile, “Nkashe wa wonti ali ne sshomelwa, ayenze huline amwele.
Now on the last and most important day of the Feast, Jesus stood up and called out saying: “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.
38 Omwene waneteshe ane, nanshi amazu shagayanjile, afume mhati yakwe ganza hwiteshe amasoho gemenze gewomi.”
The one believing into me, just as the Scripture has said, out from his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.”
39 Ila ayanji ega alengane hushi Roho, afuatanaje bhala bhabhamwetesheye bhayihuposhela; Ompempo ali seele safumiziwe alengane naje oYesu ali samwamihwe.
(Now He said this about the Spirit, whom those believing into Him were going to receive, in that the Holy Spirit had not yet been given because Jesus had not yet been glorified.)
40 Bhamo bhelubhongano, nabhahomvwezye enongwa eezi, bhajile, “Yoli ono kuwaa.”
So upon hearing this word many from the crowd began to say, “This One really is ‘the Prophet’!”
41 Bhamo bhayanjile, “Ono Kilisiti.” Ila bhamo bhamo bhajile, “yenu, oKilisiti awezya afume hu Galilaya?
Others were saying, “This One is the Christ!” Others were saying: “Surely the Christ isn't coming out of Galilee, is He?
42 Amaazu segayanga aje oKilisiti aifuma hushikholo sha Daudi na afume hubenselehemu, hushi jiji shahali oDaudi?
Doesn't the Scripture say that the Christ comes out of the seed of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?”
43 Shesho, pala pabhoha olugabhano mhati yelubhongamo alengane no mwahale.
So there developed a division in the crowd because of Him.
44 Bhamo mhati yabho handabhakhete, ila nomo wagolosezye okhono gwakwe hwa mwene.
Further, some of them were wanting to arrest Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.
45 Bhala ofisa bhawela hwa gosi adimi na Mafarisayo, bhope bhabhabhozya, “Yenu semletile?”
Then the operatives came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why haven't you brought him?”
46 Amaofisa bhajile, “Nomo omunti wawayile ayanje nanshi ono haani.”
The operatives answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
47 Amafarisayo nkabhahaga, “Namwe nantele mtejile?
So the Pharisees answered them: “You haven't been fooled too, have you?
48 Ahweli omuntu wawonti hwa gosi wahumweteha, au wawonti hwa Mafarisayo?
None of the rulers or the Pharisees have believed into him, have they?
49 Ila ebha amabhongano bhasebhemenye endwajizyo - wapete amakhosi.”
But this crowd that doesn't know the law is accursed!”
50 O Nikodemo abhabhozya (omwene wabhaliye oYesu imwaha, ali pamo na Mafarisayo),
Nicodemus (the one who came to Him at night, being one of them) says to them,
51 “Aje endajizyo zyetu ziholonga omuntu ila atejezewe na soti na amanye habhomba?”
“Our law doesn't judge a man before it hears him and knows what he is doing, does it?”
52 Bhayanjile na hubhozye, “Ivi nawe ofumila hu Galilaya? Anza na oyenye aje nomo okuwaa wafumila hu Galilaya.”
They answered and said to him: “You aren't from Galilee too, are you? Search and see that no prophet has ever arisen out of Galilee.”
53 Pamande shila munti ahabhala akhaya yakwe.
So each one went to his own house.
