1 pratyūṣe yīśuḥ panarmandiram āgacchat
2 tataḥ sarvveṣu lokeṣu tasya samīpa āgateṣu sa upaviśya tān upadeṣṭum ārabhata|
3 tadā adhyāpakāḥ phirūśinañca vyabhicārakarmmaṇi dhṛtaṁ striyamekām āniya sarvveṣāṁ madhye sthāpayitvā vyāharan
4 he guro yoṣitam imāṁ vyabhicārakarmma kurvvāṇāṁ lokā dhṛtavantaḥ|
5 etādṛśalokāḥ pāṣāṇāghātena hantavyā iti vidhirmūsāvyavasthāgranthe likhitosti kintu bhavān kimādiśati?
6 te tamapavadituṁ parīkṣābhiprāyeṇa vākyamidam apṛcchan kintu sa prahvībhūya bhūmāvaṅgalyā lekhitum ārabhata|
7 tatastaiḥ punaḥ punaḥ pṛṣṭa utthāya kathitavān yuṣmākaṁ madhye yo jano niraparādhī saeva prathamam enāṁ pāṣāṇenāhantu|
8 paścāt sa punaśca prahvībhūya bhūmau lekhitum ārabhata|
9 tāṁ kathaṁ śrutvā te svasvamanasi prabodhaṁ prāpya jyeṣṭhānukramaṁ ekaikaśaḥ sarvve bahiragacchan tato yīśurekākī tayakttobhavat madhyasthāne daṇḍāyamānā sā yoṣā ca sthitā|
10 tatpaścād yīśurutthāya tāṁ vanitāṁ vinā kamapyaparaṁ na vilokya pṛṣṭavān he vāme tavāpavādakāḥ kutra? kopi tvāṁ kiṁ na daṇḍayati?
11 sāvadat he maheccha kopi na tadā yīśuravocat nāhamapi daṇḍayāmi yāhi punaḥ pāpaṁ mākārṣīḥ|
12 tato yīśuḥ punarapi lokebhya itthaṁ kathayitum ārabhata jagatohaṁ jyotiḥsvarūpo yaḥ kaścin matpaścāda gacchati sa timire na bhramitvā jīvanarūpāṁ dīptiṁ prāpsyati|
Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world: the one following me can not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of the life.
13 tataḥ phirūśino'vādiṣustvaṁ svārthe svayaṁ sākṣyaṁ dadāsi tasmāt tava sākṣyaṁ grāhyaṁ na bhavati|
Then the Pharisees said to Him, Thou art testifying concerning thyself; Thy testimony is not true. And Jesus responded and said to them,
14 tadā yīśuḥ pratyuditavān yadyapi svārthe'haṁ svayaṁ sākṣyaṁ dadāmi tathāpi mat sākṣyaṁ grāhyaṁ yasmād ahaṁ kuta āgatosmi kva yāmi ca tadahaṁ jānāmi kintu kuta āgatosmi kutra gacchāmi ca tad yūyaṁ na jānītha|
If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is true; for I know whence I came, and whither I go. You know not whence I come, or whither I go.
15 yūyaṁ laukikaṁ vicārayatha nāhaṁ kimapi vicārayāmi|
You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.
16 kintu yadi vicārayāmi tarhi mama vicāro grahītavyo yatoham ekākī nāsmi prerayitā pitā mayā saha vidyate|
If I judge, my judgment is true; because I am not alone, but I and the One having sent me.
17 dvayo rjanayoḥ sākṣyaṁ grahaṇīyaṁ bhavatīti yuṣmākaṁ vyavasthāgranthe likhitamasti|
And it has been written in our law, that the testimony of two men is true.
18 ahaṁ svārthe svayaṁ sākṣitvaṁ dadāmi yaśca mama tāto māṁ preritavān sopi madarthe sākṣyaṁ dadāti|
I am the one testifying concerning myself, and the Father having sent me, testifies concerning me.
19 tadā te'pṛcchan tava tātaḥ kutra? tato yīśuḥ pratyavādīd yūyaṁ māṁ na jānītha matpitarañca na jānītha yadi mām akṣāsyata tarhi mama tātamapyakṣāsyata|
Then they said to Him, Where is thy Father? Jesus responded; You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me, you would also know my Father.
20 yīśu rmandira upadiśya bhaṇḍāgāre kathā etā akathayat tathāpi taṁ prati kopi karaṁ nodatolayat|
He spoke these words in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no one arrested Him; because His hour had not yet come.
21 tataḥ paraṁ yīśuḥ punaruditavān adhunāhaṁ gacchāmi yūyaṁ māṁ gaveṣayiṣyatha kintu nijaiḥ pāpai rmariṣyatha yat sthānam ahaṁ yāsyāmi tat sthānam yūyaṁ yātuṁ na śakṣyatha|
Then He again said to them, I go away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sin: whither I go you are not able to come.
22 tadā yihūdīyāḥ prāvocan kimayam ātmaghātaṁ kariṣyati? yato yat sthānam ahaṁ yāsyāmi tat sthānam yūyaṁ yātuṁ na śakṣyatha iti vākyaṁ bravīti|
Then the Jews were saying, Whether will He kill Himself, because He says, Whither I go away, you are not able to come?
23 tato yīśustebhyaḥ kathitavān yūyam adhaḥsthānīyā lokā aham ūrdvvasthānīyaḥ yūyam etajjagatsambandhīyā aham etajjagatsambandhīyo na|
And He said to them, You are from beneath; I am from above: you are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 tasmāt kathitavān yūyaṁ nijaiḥ pāpai rmariṣyatha yatohaṁ sa pumān iti yadi na viśvasitha tarhi nijaiḥ pāpai rmariṣyatha|
Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins: for if you may not believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins.
25 tadā te 'pṛcchan kastvaṁ? tato yīśuḥ kathitavān yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau yasya prastāvam ā prathamāt karomi saeva puruṣohaṁ|
Then they said to Him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, Even that which I also speak to you from the beginning.
26 yuṣmāsu mayā bahuvākyaṁ vakttavyaṁ vicārayitavyañca kintu matprerayitā satyavādī tasya samīpe yadahaṁ śrutavān tadeva jagate kathayāmi|
I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you; but the One having sent me is true; those things which I heard with Him, these I speak to the world.
27 kintu sa janake vākyamidaṁ prokttavān iti te nābudhyanta|
They did not know that He spoke to them concerning the Father.
28 tato yīśurakathayad yadā manuṣyaputram ūrdvva utthāpayiṣyatha tadāhaṁ sa pumān kevalaḥ svayaṁ kimapi karmma na karomi kintu tāto yathā śikṣayati tadanusāreṇa vākyamidaṁ vadāmīti ca yūyaṁ jñātuṁ śakṣyatha|
Then Jesus said, When you may lift up the Son of man, then you shall know that I am He, and I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me, I speak the same things.
29 matprerayitā pitā mām ekākinaṁ na tyajati sa mayā sārddhaṁ tiṣṭhati yatohaṁ tadabhimataṁ karmma sadā karomi|
Truly the One having sent me is with me; He has not left me alone; because I always do those things which are pleasing to Him.
30 tadā tasyaitāni vākyāni śrutvā bahuvastāsmin vyaśvasan|
He speaking these things, many believed on Him.
31 ye yihūdīyā vyaśvasan yīśustebhyo'kathayat
Then Jesus said to the Jews, who believed on Him, If you may abide in my word, you are truly my disciples;
32 mama vākye yadi yūyam āsthāṁ kurutha tarhi mama śiṣyā bhūtvā satyatvaṁ jñāsyatha tataḥ satyatayā yuṣmākaṁ mokṣo bhaviṣyati|
and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 tadā te pratyavādiṣuḥ vayam ibrāhīmo vaṁśaḥ kadāpi kasyāpi dāsā na jātāstarhi yuṣmākaṁ muktti rbhaviṣyatīti vākyaṁ kathaṁ bravīṣi?
They responded to Him, we are the seed of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one: How do You say, that you shall be free?
34 tadā yīśuḥ pratyavadad yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthataraṁ vadāmi yaḥ pāpaṁ karoti sa pāpasya dāsaḥ|
Jesus responded to them, Truly, truly, I say unto you, That every one doing sin is the slave of sin.
But the slave abides not in the house forever; the Son abides forever. (aiōn g165)
36 ataḥ putro yadi yuṣmān mocayati tarhi nitāntameva mukttā bhaviṣyatha|
If therefore the Son may make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37 yuyam ibrāhīmo vaṁśa ityahaṁ jānāmi kintu mama kathā yuṣmākam antaḥkaraṇeṣu sthānaṁ na prāpnuvanti tasmāddheto rmāṁ hantum īhadhve|
I know ye are the seed of Abraham; but you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.
38 ahaṁ svapituḥ samīpe yadapaśyaṁ tadeva kathayāmi tathā yūyamapi svapituḥ samīpe yadapaśyata tadeva kurudhve|
Whatsoever I have seen with the Father I speak: you therefore are doing the things which you heard with your father.
39 tadā te pratyavocan ibrāhīm asmākaṁ pitā tato yīśurakathayad yadi yūyam ibrāhīmaḥ santānā abhaviṣyata tarhi ibrāhīma ācāraṇavad ācariṣyata|
They responded and said to Him, Abraham is our Father. Jesus says to them, If you were the children of Abraham, you would do the works of Abraham.
40 īśvarasya mukhāt satyaṁ vākyaṁ śrutvā yuṣmān jñāpayāmi yohaṁ taṁ māṁ hantuṁ ceṣṭadhve ibrāhīm etādṛśaṁ karmma na cakāra|
But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard with God: Abraham did not this.
41 yūyaṁ svasvapituḥ karmmāṇi kurutha tadā tairukttaṁ na vayaṁ jārajātā asmākam ekaeva pitāsti sa eveśvaraḥ
You are doing the works of your father. They said to Him, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, God.
42 tato yīśunā kathitam īśvaro yadi yuṣmākaṁ tātobhaviṣyat tarhi yūyaṁ mayi premākariṣyata yatoham īśvarānnirgatyāgatosmi svato nāgatohaṁ sa māṁ prāhiṇot|
Jesus said to them; If God were your Father, you would love me: for I came out from God, and I return; for I have not spoken from myself, but He sent me.
43 yūyaṁ mama vākyamidaṁ na budhyadhve kutaḥ? yato yūyaṁ mamopadeśaṁ soḍhuṁ na śaknutha|
Wherefore do you not understand my speech? Because you are not able to hear my word.
44 yūyaṁ śaitān pituḥ santānā etasmād yuṣmākaṁ piturabhilāṣaṁ pūrayatha sa ā prathamāt naraghātī tadantaḥ satyatvasya leśopi nāsti kāraṇādataḥ sa satyatāyāṁ nātiṣṭhat sa yadā mṛṣā kathayati tadā nijasvabhāvānusāreṇaiva kathayati yato sa mṛṣābhāṣī mṛṣotpādakaśca|
You are of your father the devil, and you wish to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not in the truth, because there was no truth in him. When he may speak a lie, he speaks of his own: because he is a liar, and the father of the same.
45 ahaṁ tathyavākyaṁ vadāmi kāraṇādasmād yūyaṁ māṁ na pratītha|
And because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
46 mayi pāpamastīti pramāṇaṁ yuṣmākaṁ ko dātuṁ śaknoti? yadyahaṁ tathyavākyaṁ vadāmi tarhi kuto māṁ na pratitha?
Which one of you convicts me concerning sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me?
47 yaḥ kaścana īśvarīyo lokaḥ sa īśvarīyakathāyāṁ mano nidhatte yūyam īśvarīyalokā na bhavatha tannidānāt tatra na manāṁsi nidhadve|
The one being of God hears the words of God: on account of this you do not hear, because you are not of God.
48 tadā yihūdīyāḥ pratyavādiṣuḥ tvamekaḥ śomiroṇīyo bhūtagrastaśca vayaṁ kimidaṁ bhadraṁ nāvādiṣma?
The Jews responded and said to Him, Do we not truly say that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?
49 tato yīśuḥ pratyavādīt nāhaṁ bhūtagrastaḥ kintu nijatātaṁ sammanye tasmād yūyaṁ mām apamanyadhve|
Jesus responded, I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.
50 ahaṁ svasukhyātiṁ na ceṣṭe kintu ceṣṭitā vicārayitā cāpara eka āste|
But I do not seek my own glory: there is One seeking and judging.
51 ahaṁ yuṣmabhyam atīva yathārthaṁ kathayāmi yo naro madīyaṁ vācaṁ manyate sa kadācana nidhanaṁ na drakṣyati| (aiōn g165)
Truly, truly, I say unto you, if any one may keep my word, he may never see death. (aiōn g165)
52 yihūdīyāstamavadan tvaṁ bhūtagrasta itīdānīm avaiṣma| ibrāhīm bhaviṣyadvādinañca sarvve mṛtāḥ kintu tvaṁ bhāṣase yo naro mama bhāratīṁ gṛhlāti sa jātu nidhānāsvādaṁ na lapsyate| (aiōn g165)
The Jews said to Him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham and the prophets are dead; and thou sayest, If any one may keep my word, he may never taste death. (aiōn g165)
53 tarhi tvaṁ kim asmākaṁ pūrvvapuruṣād ibrāhīmopi mahān? yasmāt sopi mṛtaḥ bhaviṣyadvādinopi mṛtāḥ tvaṁ svaṁ kaṁ pumāṁsaṁ manuṣe?
Whether art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died: whom do you make yourself?
54 yīśuḥ pratyavocad yadyahaṁ svaṁ svayaṁ sammanye tarhi mama tat sammananaṁ kimapi na kintu mama tāto yaṁ yūyaṁ svīyam īśvaraṁ bhāṣadhve saeva māṁ sammanute|
Jesus responded, If I may glorify myself, my glory is nothing: my Father is the one glorifying me; whom you say, that, He is our God;
55 yūyaṁ taṁ nāvagacchatha kintvahaṁ tamavagacchāmi taṁ nāvagacchāmīti vākyaṁ yadi vadāmi tarhi yūyamiva mṛṣābhāṣī bhavāmi kintvahaṁ tamavagacchāmi tadākṣāmapi gṛhlāmi|
indeed you do not know Him: but I know Him. If I may say, I know Him not, I will be a liar like you: but I know Him, and I keep His word.
56 yuṣmākaṁ pūrvvapuruṣa ibrāhīm mama samayaṁ draṣṭum atīvāvāñchat tannirīkṣyānandacca|
Abraham, our father, rejoiced that he might see my day; he saw it, and was glad.
57 tadā yihūdīyā apṛcchan tava vayaḥ pañcāśadvatsarā na tvaṁ kim ibrāhīmam adrākṣīḥ?
Then the Jews said to Him, You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?
58 yīśuḥ pratyavādīd yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthataraṁ vadāmi ibrāhīmo janmanaḥ pūrvvakālamārabhyāhaṁ vidye|
Jesus said unto them, Truly, truly, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59 tadā te pāṣāṇān uttolya tamāhantum udayacchan kintu yīśu rgupto mantirād bahirgatya teṣāṁ madhyena prasthitavān|
Then they took up stones that they might cast at Him: and Jesus was hidden, and departed out from the temple.
