< Johane 3 >
1 Mme ya re bosigo bongwe morago ga lotlatlana, moeteledipele wa tumelo ya Sejuta yo o bidiwang Nikodemo, wa leloko la phuthego ya Bafarasai, a tla go kopa Jesu thuso. A re, “Rra, rotlhe re itse gore Modimo o go romile go tla go re ruta. Dikgakgamatso tsa gago di supa ka botlalo gore o romilwe ke Modimo.”
Lino kwakaliwo mu Falisi wakali kutegwa Nikkodimasi, muzululi wama Juda.
Ooyo mwaalumi wakaza kuli Jesu mansiku, mpawo wakati kulinguwe, “Muyiisyi kuti uli muyiisyi wakazwa kuli Leza, nkaambo tawope ukonzya kuchita zitondeezyo eezyo chita ado Leza ulaanguwe.
3 Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Ka tlhoafalo yotlhe e ke nang nayo ke go bolelela se: fa o sa tsalwe sesha, ga o kake wa tsena mo Bogosing jwa Modimo.”
Jesu wakasandula kuli nguw, “Nkasimpe, kasimpe ado muntu wazyalwa bupya lubo takonzyi kubona bwami bwa Leza.”
4 Mme Nikodemo a gakgamala a re, “Ke tsalwe gape! O rayang? Motho e ka re e le mogolo o ka boela jang mo sebopelong sa ga mmaagwe gore a tsalwe gape?”
Nikkodemasi wakati kulinguwe, “Mbubuli muntu mbwakonzya kuzyalwa nkali wachembaala? Tachikonzyoi kunjila lwabili mutumbu lyabanyina mpawo akuzyalwa, ulakonzya na?
5 Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Se ke se go bolelelang ka tlhoafalo ke se: kwa ntle ga gore motho a tsalwe ka metsi le ka mowa ga a ka ke a tsena mo Bogosing jwa Modimo.
Jesu wakasandula, “Nkasimpe, nkasimpe ado muntu wazyalwa amaanzi amuuya, takonzyi kunjila mubwami bwa Leza.
6 Batho ba ka tsala batho ba bangwe fela, mme Mowa O O Boitshepo o naya botshelo jo bosha jo bo tswang legodimong.
Eecho chizyalwa kunyama ninyama, mpawo eecho chizyalwa kumuuya muuya.
7 Jalo he, o se gakgamalele go bua ga me fa ke re o tshwanetse go tsalwa gape!
Utagambi eecho nchindakwaambila, uyeelede kuzwalwa bupya.
8 Fela jaaka o ka utlwa phefo mme o ka seka wa bolela kwa e tswang teng kgotsa kwa e tlaa fokelang teng gape, Mowa o ntse fela jalo. Ga re itse gore o tlaa neela mang botshelo jo, jo bo tswang legodimong.”
Luuwo luloonga kufumbwa nkuluyanda; ulamvwa muzuumo pesi tokonzyi kuziba nkulwazwa nekunba nkuluya. Nkikaako woonse muntu ooyo uzyalwa amuuya mbwabede.
9 Mme Nikodemo a mmotsa a re, “O rayang?”
Nikkodemasi wakasandula kuti, “Mbubuli mbuzikonzya kuba zintu eezi?”
10 Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “O moruti wa Bajuta yo o tlotlegang, mme a ga o ise o tlhaloganye dilo tse? Ke go bolelela se ke se itseng e bile ke se bonye, mme le fa go ntse jalo ga o ise o ntumele.
Jesu wakasandula wati kulinguwe, “Uli mwiiyi wa Isiolayili na aboobo tomvwisyi zintu eezi?
Nkasimpe, nkasimpe ndakwaambila, twaambwa nzitwizi, mpawo tupa bumboni aatala anzitwakabona. Aboobo totambuli bumboni bwesu.
12 Mme fa o sa ntumele fa ke go bolelela ka ga dilo tse di diragalang fano mo bathong, o ka dumela jang fa ke go bolelela ka tse di diragalang kwa legodimong?
Na ndakaambide aatala azintu zyanyika mpawo twasyoma, mbuli mbokonzya kusyoma na ndakwambila ataala azintu zyajulu?
13 Gonne ke nna fela, Morwa Motho, yo ke tsileng mo lefatsheng mme ke tlaa boela kwa legodimong gape.
Tawope wakaliinkide kujulu kunze kwayooyo wakaseluka kuzwa kujulu- Mwana aa Muntu.
14 “Mme fela jaaka Moshe a ne a tsholetsa setshwantsho sa noga ya kgotlho mo mopakong, le nna ke tshwanetse go tsholediwa fela jalo mo mopakong.
Mbubonya mbuli Mozesi mbwakasumpula nzoka munkanda, mbobonya Mwana aa Muntu mbwayosumpulwa,
15 Gore le fa e le mang yo o dumelang mo go nna a tle a bone botshelo jo bo sa khutleng. (aiōnios )
kuti boonse basyoma bakabe abuumi butamani. (aiōnios )
16 Gonne Modimo o ratile lefatshe mo go kalokalo mo o neng wa ntsha Morwa One a le esi gore le fa e le mang yo o dumelang mo go ene a seka a nyelela mme a bone botshelo jo bo sa khutleng. (aiōnios )
Oobuya Leza mbwakayandisya nyika, eelyo wakiipa Mwana wakwe simuzyalwa aalike kuti kufumbwa uumusyoma mulinguwe atafwidilili pesi kuti aabe aabumi butamani. (aiōnios )
17 Modimo ga o wa ka wa romela Morwa One go atlhola lefatshe, fa e se go le boloka.
Obuya Leza takatuma Mwana munyika kuti azoobeteke nyoka, pesi kuti azoofutule nyika kwiinfa mulinguwe.
18 “Ga go na tshekiso ya bosakhutleng e e emetseng ba ba mo ikanyang go ba boloka. Mme ba ba sa mo ikanyeng ba setse ba sekisitswe ebile ba atlhotswe ka ntlha ya go sa dumeleng mo go morwa Modimo yo o esi.
Ooyo usyoma muli nguwe takoyoobetekwa, pesi ooyo utasyomi wabetekwa kale nkaambo taasyoma muzina lya Mwana alike wa Leza.
19 Katlholo ya bone e itsetsepetse mo boammaaruring jo: gore Lesedi le le tswang kwa legodimong le tsile mo lefatsheng, mme ba rata lefifi go gaisa Lesedi, gonne ditiro tsa bone di ne di le bosula.
Aaka nkikaambo kakutonga: Mumuni wasika munyika mpawo bantu bayanda mudima kwiinda mumuni nkaambo nchito zyabo nzyabubi.
20 Ba ila Lesedi la legodimo gonne ba ne ba batla go leofa mo lefifing. Ba nna kgakala le Lesedi leo gonne ba ne ba tshaba gore dibe tsa bone di tlaa bewa mo pontsheng, mme ba otlhaiwe.
Woonse uuchita bubi wasula mumuni aboobo tasiki kumumuni, kuchitila nchito eezi kuti zitabonwi.
21 Mme ba ba dirang tshiamo, ba tla ka boitumelo mo Leseding gore mongwe le mongwe a bone gore ba dira se Modimo o batlang ba se dira.”
Nikuba kuti, ooyo uuchita kasimpe wasika kumumuni kuchitila zilaantanganana ziboneke eezyo nchito kuti zyachoitwa muli Leza.
22 Erile morago, Jesu le barutwa ba gagwe ba tswa mo Jerusalema mme ba nna ka lobakanyana mo Judea ba kolobetsa teng.
Musule acheechi, Jesu abasikwiiya bakwe bakayinka munyika ya Judiya. Ooko wakakukkala kkala antoomwe ambabo akubbabbatizya.
23 Ka nako e, Johane wa Mokolobetsi o ne a ise a tsenngwe mo kgolegelong. O ne a kolobetsa kwa Ainona gaufi le Salema, gonne go ne go na le metsi a mantsi teng.
Lino Joni alakwe wakali kubbabbatizya mu Ayinoni afwiifwi ku Salimu nkaambo kwakali meenda mayingi nkuko. Bantu bakalikusika kulinguwe mpawo bakali ku bbabbatizigwa,
nkaambo Joni takalina waalwa muntolongo.
25 Letsatsi lengwe mongwe a simolola go ngangisa barutwa ba ga Johane a ba bolelela gore kolobetso ya ga Jesu ke yone fela e e botoka.
Lino aawo kwakabuka lukazyano aakati kabasikwiiya ba Joni aba Juda aatala aapobwe lyakusanzyania.
26 Hong ba tla kwa go Johane ba mo raya ba re, “Rra, monna yo o neng o na nae ka kwa moseja ga Noka ya Jorodane, yo o neng wa re ke Mesia, le ene o a kolobetsa, mme mongwe le mongwe o ya teng mo boemong jwa go tla kwano go rona.”
Bayiinka kuli Joni mpawo bamwaambila kuti, “Labbi, ooyo wakali aanduwe kulimwi bbazu lyamulonga wa Jodani, aatala ayooyo ngwakalungulula, laanga, uliiku bbabbatizya mpawo boonse balikwiinka kulinguwe.”
27 Johane a fetola a re, “Modimo kwa legodimong o tlhoma tiro ya mongwe le mongwe.
Joni wakasandiula, “Muntu takonzyi kutambula chintu na chapegwa kulinguwe kuzwa kujulu.
28 Tiro ya me ke go betlela monna yoo tsela gore mongwe le mongwe a tle a ye kwa go ene. Le lona tota lo itse ka fa ke lo boleletseng sentle ka teng gore ga ke Mesia. Ke fano go mmaakanyetsa tsela, ke gone gotlhe.
Iwe lwako omwini ulanzya kupa bukamboni bwacheecho nchindakaamba, pesi kuti takatumwa kunembo lyakwe.
29 Ka tlwaelo bontsintsi bo ya kwa go se se gapang maikutlo, monyadiwa o ya kwa monyadi o teng! Ditsala tsa monyadi di itumela nae. Ke tsala ya monyadi, mme ke tletse boitumelo mo tswelelong pele ya gagwe.
Mulumi ngwaasibwiinga. Lino muzolwani wasibwiinga, ooyo uyiimikila akuswiilila nguwe, ulabotelwa kapati nkkambo kajwi lyasibwiinga. Eechi lino, ndo0lukondo lwangu ngalwazulila.
30 O tshwanetse go tlotlega thata, mme nna ke tshwanetse go ngotlafala thata.
Weelela kuti kusumpulwa mebo ndifwiinsigwe.
31 O tswa legodimong ebile o mogolo mo go mongwe le mongwe. Nna ke wa lefatshe, mme tlhaloganyo ya me e lekaganyeditswe mo dilong tsa lefatshe fela.
Ooyo uzwa kujulu ulaajulu azyoonse. Ooyo uzwa aansi uzwa aansi mpawo wambuula aatala aansi. Ooyo uzwa kujulu uli aajulu azyoonse.
32 O bolela se a se bonyeng le se a se utlwileng, mme ke ba se kae fela ba ba dumelang se a se ba bolelelang!
Ulungululua aatala acheecho nchakabona anchakamvwa, pesi taakwe uzumina bukamboni bwakwe.
33 “Ba ba mo dumelang ba bona gore Modimo ke motswedi wa boammaaruri. Gonne yo, yo o romilweng ke Modimo, ebile o bua mafoko a Modimo, gonne Mowa wa Modimo o mo go ene mo go senang selekanyo.
Ooyo utambula bukamboni wazuminina kuti Leza nkasimpe.
Ooyo Leza ngwatuma wambuula majwi aa Leza. Pesi tapi mweelo wamuuya.
35 Rara o rata monna yo gonne ke Morwae, mme Modimo o mo neile sengwe le sengwe se se leng teng.
Taata uyanda Mwana mpawo wakamupa zyoonse zintu mumaboko aakwe.
36 Mme botlhe ba ba dumelang Morwa Modimo go ba boloka, ba na le botshelo jo bo sa khutleng; ba ba sa mo dumeleng ebile ba sa mo reetse ga ba kitla ba bona legodimo, mme bogale jwa Modimo bo ntse mo go bone.” (aiōnios )
Ooyo usyoma ku Mwana uli aabuumi butamani, pesi ooyo ukaka Mwana takwe kuyoobona buumi, pesi bukali bwa Leza bulakkala aalinguwe.” (aiōnios )
