< Johani 3 >
1 Zvino kwakanga kuno mumwe murume weboka ravaFarisi ainzi Nikodhimasi, nhengo yedare ravaJudha raitonga.
Vaba mutu wumosi mu Bafalisi dizina diandi Nikodemi, wuba pfumu yimosi yi Bayuda.
2 Akauya kuna Jesu usiku akati, “Rabhi, tinoziva kuti muri mudzidzisi akabva kuna Mwari. Nokuti hakuna munhu angagona kuita zviratidzo zvamunoita kana Mwari asinaye.”
Niandi wuyiza bata Yesu va builu ayi wunkamba: —Labi, tuzebi kueto ti ngeyo widi nlongi wuba kuidi Nzambi bila kuisi ko mutu wulenda vanga bikumu biobi wulembo vangi enati Nzambi kasi yandi va kimosi ko.
3 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndinokuudza chokwadi, hakuna munhu angaona umambo hwaMwari kana asina kuberekwa patsva.”
Yesu wumvutudila: —Bukiedika ndikukamba, enati mutu kakadi butuka mbutuka yimonabuna kalendi ko mona kipfumu ki Nzambi!
4 Nikodhimasi akabvunza akati, “Munhu angaberekwa seiko iye ava mukuru? Zvirokwazvo haangagoni kupinda mudumbu ramai vake kechipiri kuti aberekwe patsva!”
Nikodemi wuyuvula: —Buna buevi mutu kalenda butukila mu thangu keka nunu e? Wulenda buela vutuka diaka mu vumu ki ngudi andi ayi butuka e?
5 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndinokuudza chokwadi, hakuna munhu angapinda muumambo hwaMwari kana asina kuberekwa nemvura uye noMweya.
Yesu wumvutudila: —Bukiedika ndikukamba, enati mutu kakadi butuka mu nlangu ayi mu Pheve, kalendi ko kota mu Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
6 Nyama inobereka nyama, asi Mweya anobereka Mweya.
Kioso kibutuka mu kinsuni kidi kinsuni. Vayi kioso kibutuka mu Pheve kidi kipheve.
7 Haufaniri kushamiswa nezvandareva ndichiti, ‘Unofanira kuberekwa patsva.’
Bika kuaku simina bu ndikembi ti lufueti butuka mbutuka yimona.
8 Mhepo inovhuvhuta ichienda kwainoda. Unonzwa inzwi rayo, asi haugoni kuziva kwainobva kana kwainoenda. Ndizvo zvakaitawo vose vakaberekwa noMweya.”
Phemo yimvevumukanga koso ku yitidi ayi ngeyo weti wanga biyoko, vayi wukadi zaba kuevi wubedi ayi kuevi wulembo yendi. Buawu bobo buididi kuidi woso mutu wubutuka mu Pheve.
9 Nikodhimasi akati, “Zvingaitika seiko izvi?”
Nikodemi wunyuvula: —Buevi mambu momo malenda vangiminina e?
10 Jesu akati, “Iwe uri mudzidzisi wavaIsraeri, asi haunzwisisi zvinhu izvi?
Yesu wumvutudila: —Ngeyo widi nlongi wu Iseli vayi wukadi zaba mambu mama e?
11 Ndinokuudza chokwadi, tinotaura zvatinoziva, uye tinopupura zvatakaona, asi hazvo, imi vanhu hamutongogamuchiri uchapupu hwedu.
Bukiedika ndikukamba: beto tuntubanga mambu tuzebi; tunteliminanga kimbangi mu mambu tumona, vayi beno lutambudilanga ko kimbangi kieto.
12 Ndataura kwauri pamusoro pezvinhu zvapanyika uye hautendi; zvino ungatenda sei kana ndikataura pamusoro pezvinhu zvokudenga?
Enati ndiluyolukidi mambu ma ntoto vayi lukadi wilukila buna buevilulenda wilukila enati ndiluyolukidi mambu ma Diyilu e?
13 Hakuna munhu akamboenda kudenga kunze kwaiye akabva kudenga, iye Mwanakomana woMunhu.
Kuisi ko mutu wukuma ku Diyilu, botula kaka Mutu wukulumuka va ntoto bu kaba ku Diyilu: Muana mutu niandi kaka wukuma ku diyilu.
14 Mozisi sezvaakasimudza nyoka murenje, saizvozvo Mwanakomana woMunhu anofanira kusimudzwawo,
Boso bu nangikina Moyize nioka mu dikanga, buawu bobo mamvandi Muana Mutu kela nangukulu.
15 kuti ani naani anotenda kwaari ave noupenyu husingaperi. (aiōnios )
Mu diambu di woso mutu wunkunwilukila kabaka luzingu lukalumani. (aiōnios )
16 “Nokuti Mwari akada nyika nokudaro, kuti akapa Mwanakomana wake mumwe oga, kuti ani naani anotenda kwaari arege kufa asi ave noupenyu husingaperi. (aiōnios )
Bila Nzambi wuzodila ngolo batu va nza, diawu kavanina Muanꞌandi wumosi kaka muingi woso mutu wukunwilukila kabika bungana vayi kabaka luzingu lukalumani. (aiōnios )
17 Nokuti Mwari haana kutuma Mwanakomana wake panyika kuti atonge nyika, asi kuti nyika iponeswe kubudikidza naye.
Bila Nzambi kasia fidisa ko Muanꞌandi va nza mu diambu di sambisa ntoto vayi muingi nza yivuka mu niandi.
18 Ani naani anotenda kwaari haatongwi, asi ani naani asingatendi atotongwa nokuti haana kutenda muzita roMwanakomana mumwe oga waMwari.
Woso wukunwilukila kalendi sambusu ko vayi woso wunkambu wilukila wukisambusulu bila niandi mengi wilukila Muana wumosi kaka wu Nzambi.
19 Kutongwa ndokuku: Chiedza chakasvika munyika, asi vanhu vakada rima panzvimbo yechiedza nokuti mabasa avo akanga akaipa.
Nzengolo nkanu yawu yayi: kiezila kiyiza va nza vayi batu baluta kuawu zola tombi viokila kiezila bila mavanga mawu maba mambimbi.
20 Mumwe nomumwe anoita zvakaipa anovenga chiedza, uye haapindi muchiedza nokuti anotya kuti mabasa ake angaiswa pachena.
Bila woso mutu wumvanganga mambu mambimbi kazolanga ko kiezila ayi kalendi kuiza kuidi kiezila ko tala mavanga mandi mambimbi medi monika.
21 Asi ani naani anorarama muchokwadi anouya muchiedza, kuitira kuti zvaakaita zvionekwe pachena kuti zvakaitwa kubudikidza naMwari.”
Vayi woso mutu wunsadilanga kiedika, wunkuizanga ku kiezila mu diambudi mavanga mandi mamonika ti malembo vangimina mu Nzambi.
22 Shure kwaizvozvo, Jesu navadzidzi vake vakabuda vakaenda kunyika yeJudhea, uko kwaakandogara navo kwechinguva, uye akabhabhatidza.
Momo bu mavioka, Yesu ayi minlonguki miandi, bayenda vuanda ndambu bilumbu mu Yuda. Kuna kaba botikilanga.
23 Zvino Johaniwo aibhabhatidza paAenoni pedyo neSarimu nokuti pakanga pane mvura zhinji, uye vanhu vakanga vachiramba vachiuya kuti vazobhabhatidzwa.
Yowani mamvandi buna wulembo botikila ku Enoni yifikimini ayi Salimi bila nlangu wuwombo wuba kuna; batu bayiza ayi babotoko.
24 (Panguva iyi, Johani akanga asati aiswa mutorongo.)
Bila buna Yowani kakotosolo ko mu nloko.
25 Nharo dzakamuka pakati pavamwe vadzidzi vaJohani nomumwe muJudha pamusoro penyaya dzokuzvinatsa nokushamba.
Ziphaka zibua va khatitsika minlonguki mi Yowani ayi nyuda wumosi, mu diambu di vedila.
26 Vakauya kuna Johani vakati kwaari, “Rabhi, uya murume wamakanga muinaye mhiri kwaJorodhani, iye wamakapupura nezvake, onai, ari kubhabhatidza, uye vanhu vose vari kuenda kwaari.”
Buna bayenda kuidi Yowani ayi bankamba: —Labi, mutu wowo bedingi yaku kuna disimu di Yolidani, wowo teliminingi kimbangi, tala niandi mamvandi wulembo botika ayi batu boso balembo yendi kuidi niandi.
27 Johani akapindura achiti, “Munhu anongogamuchira chete zvaanenge apiwa zvichibva kudenga.
Yowani wuba vutudila: —Mutu kalendi tambula kima ko enati kasi kukitambula ko bu kiba ku diyilu.
28 Imi pachenyu mungandipupurira kuti ndakati, ‘Ini handisini Kristu, asi ndakatumwa mberi kwake.’
Beno veka lulembo thelimina kimbangi bu ndituba ti: minu ndisiꞌama Klisto ko vayi minu ndifidusu ku ntualꞌandi.
29 Mwenga ndowechikomba. Shamwari inoshandira chikomba inomira ichimunzwa uye inozara nomufaro painonzwa inzwi rechikomba. Mufaro uyo ndowangu, uye iye zvino wakwana.
Nketo wukuelo vuiwulu kuidi bakala dinkuedidi. Vayi nkundi wu bakalakuedidi wuntelamanga va ndambu ayi wunkunwanga weti monanga khini mu wanga mbembo yi bakala dikuedidi. Khini yoyo yidi mu minu, yidukidi.
30 Anofanira kuva mukuru; ini ndinofanira kudukupiswa.
Bufueni niandi kaluta zangama vayi minu ndikuluka.
31 “Uyo anobva kumusoro ndiye ari pamusoro pavose; uyo anobva panyika ndowenyika, uye anotaura somunhu anobva panyika. Uyo anobva kudenga ndiye ari pamusoro pavose.
Mutu wowo wuba ku Diyilu lutidi batu boso. Vayi mutu wowo wutotukila va ntoto, widi muisi ntoto; ayi wuntubanga banga muisi ntoto. Mutu wowo wuba ku Diyilu lutidi batu boso.
32 Iye anopupura zvaakaona nezvaakanzwa, asi hakuna munhu anogamuchira uchapupu hwake.
Niandi wunteliminanga kimbangi mu mambu momo kamona ayi momo kawa vayi kadi mutu kakadi wilukila kimbangi kiandi.
33 Munhu anohugamuchira, anopupura kuti Mwari ndowechokwadi.
Woso mutu wukikinina kimbangi kiandi, buna wunwilukila ti Nzambi wid wukiedika.
34 Nokuti uyo akatumwa naMwari anotaura mashoko aMwari, nokuti Mwari anopa Mweya asingayeri.
Bila mutu wowo Nzambi katuma, weta tuba mambu ma Nzambi bila Nzambi wumvananga Pheve mu kambu teza.
35 Baba vanoda Mwanakomana uye vakaisa zvose mumaoko ake.
Dise dinzolanga Muana ayi wutula bima bioso mu mioko miandi.
36 Ani naani anotenda muMwanakomana ano upenyu husingaperi, asi ani naani anoramba Mwanakomana haangaoni upenyu, nokuti kutsamwa kwaMwari kunogara pamusoro pake.” (aiōnios )
Woso mutu wunwilukilanga Muana beki luzingu lukalumani vayi wosowunkambu wilukila Muana kalendi baka ko luzingu lukalumani. Vayi nganziyi Nzambi yidi va niandi. (aiōnios )
