< Johani 5 >

1 Shure kwaizvozvo, Jesu akakwira kuJerusarema kumutambo wavaJudha.
AFTER these there was a feast of the Jihudoyee, and Jeshu went up to Urishlem.
2 Zvino muJerusarema mune dziva riri pedyo neSuo raMakwai, rinonzi Bhetesdha nechiHebheru, uye rakapoteredzwa namabiravira mashanu.
Now there was there in Urishlem a certain place of ablution, which was called in Hebrew Bethchesda, and having in it five porticoes.
3 Imomo vanhu vazhinji vakaremara vaisivatamo, mapofu, zvirema navakafa mitezo.
And in these were many infirm people, blind and lame and withered, awaiting the moving of the waters.
4 Nguva nenguva mutumwa waShe aiburukiramo achibvongodza mvura. Munhu aitanga kupinda mudziva shure kwenguva ipi zvayo yainge yabvongodzwa mvura aiporeswa pachirwere chipi zvacho chaainge anacho.
For an angel at times descended to the pool and moved the waters; and he who first descended after the movement of the waters was healed of whatever disease he had.
5 Mumwe murume akanga arimo akanga arwara kwamakore makumi matatu namasere.
But a certain man was there who for thirtyand-eight years had been in a disease.
6 Jesu akati amuona avete imomo, uye aiziva kuti akanga aita mararamiro iwayo kwenguva refu, akamubvunza akati, “Unoda kuporeswa here?”
Jeshu saw this (man) as he lay, and knew that for a long time he had (been thus), and said to him, Art thou willing to be healed?
7 Murwere akati, “Ishe, handina munhu anondibatsira kuti ndipinde mudziva mvura painenge yabvongodzwa. Ndichiri kuedza kupinda, mumwe anonditangira.”
The diseased man answered and said, Yes, my Lord; but I have no man who, when the waters are moved, shall cast me into the pool: but while I am coming, another before me descendeth.
8 Ipapo Jesu akati kwaari, “Simuka! Tora rukukwe rwako ufambe.”
Jeshu saith to him, Arise, take up thy bed, and walk.
9 Pakarepo murume uyu akaporeswa; akatora rukukwe rwake akafamba. Zuva rakaitika izvi raiva reSabata.
And in the instant that man was healed, and, arising, he took up his bed, and walked: and that day was the shabath.
10 Naizvozvo vaJudha vakati kumurume uya akanga aporeswa, “Nhasi iSabata; murayiro unokurambidza kuti utakure rukukwe rwako.”
And the Jihudoyee said to him who had been healed, This is the shabath: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed.
11 Asi iye akapindura akati, “Murume andiporesa ati kwandiri, ‘Takura rukukwe rwako ufambe.’”
But he answered and said to them, He who made me whole, he said to me, Take up thy bed, and walk.
12 Saka vakamubvunza vakati, “Ndianiko murume uyu akutaurira kuti urutakure ufambe?”
And they said to him, What man is this who told thee to take up thy bed, and walk?
13 Murume uya akanga aporeswa akanga asingazivi kuti ainge ari ani, nokuti Jesu akanga apinda mukati meungano yakanga iripo.
But he who had been healed knew not who it was; for Jeshu had retired among the great multitude which was in that place.
14 Shure kwaizvozvo, Jesu akamuwana ari mutemberi uye akati kwaari, “Tarira, wapora. Usatadzazve kuti urege kuwirwa nechimwe chinhu chakaipisisa.”
After a time Jeshu found him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art healed: sin not again, lest there be to thee that which is worse than the first.
15 Murume akabva akaenda akandoudza vaJudha kuti ndiJesu akanga amuporesa.
And that man went away, and told the Jihudoyee, that it was Jeshu who had healed him.
16 Saka nokuda kwokuti Jesu akanga achiita zvinhu izvi nomusi weSabata, vaJudha vakamutambudza.
On account of this the Jihudoyee persecuted Jeshu, and sought to kill him, because these things he had done on the shabath.
17 Jesu akati kwavari, “Baba vangu vanoramba vari pabasa ravo kusvikira nhasi chaiye, uye neniwo, ndiri kushanda.”
But he, Jeshu, said to them, My Father until now worketh, I also work.
18 Nokuda kwaizvozvi, vaJudha vakaedza zvakanyanya kwazvo kuti vamuuraye; nokuti akanga asingaputsi Sabata chete, asi akanga achitiwo Mwari ndiBaba vake, achizvienzanisa naMwari.
But on this account the more sought the Jihudoyee to kill him, not only because he had loosed the shabath, but also that of Aloha he had said that he was his Father, and had made himself equal with Aloha.
19 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, Mwanakomana haagoni kuita chinhu ari oga; anongogona kuita zvaanoona Baba vake vachiita, nokuti zvose zvinoitwa naBaba, Mwanakomana anozviitawo.
BUT Jeshu answered and said to them, Amen, amen, I say to you, The Son cannot do any thing from the will of himself, but that which he seeth the Father do.
20 Nokuti Baba vanoda Mwanakomana uye vanomuratidza zvose zvavanoita ivo. Hongu, kuti imi mushamiswe, vachamuratidza kunyange zvinhu zvikuru kwazvo kupfuura izvi.
For those which the Father doeth, these also the Son likewise doeth. For the Father loveth the Son, and every thing that he doeth he showeth him; and greater than these works he showeth him, that you may wonder.
21 Nokuti sezvo Baba vachimutsa vakafa uye vachivapa upenyu, saizvozvo Mwanakomana anopa upenyu kuno uyo waanofarira kuti ape.
For as the Father raiseth the dead, and quickeneth, so also the Son quickeneth those whom he willeth.
22 Pamusoro paizvozvo, Baba havatongi munhu, asi vakapa Mwanakomana kutonga kwose,
For the Father judgeth no man, but all judgment he hath given to the Son;
23 kuti vose vakudze Mwanakomana sokukudza kwavanoita Baba. Uyo asingakudzi Mwanakomana, haakudzi Baba vakamutuma.
that all men should honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He who honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father who sent him.
24 “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti, ani naani anonzwa shoko rangu uye achitenda uyo akandituma, ano upenyu husingaperi uye haachazotongwi, abva murufu uye aenda kuupenyu. (aiōnios g166)
Amen, amen, I say to you, He who heareth my word and believeth on him who sent me, hath the life that is eternal, and into condemnation he cometh not, but hath passed from death unto life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti, nguva inouya uye yatosvika zvino yokuti vakafa vachanzwa inzwi roMwanakomana waMwari uye avo vanonzwa vachararama.
Amen, amen, I say to you, That the hour cometh and also now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of Aloha; and they who hear shall live
26 Nokuti sezvo Baba vano upenyu mavari, saizvozvowo vakapa Mwanakomana kuti ave noupenyu maari.
For as the Father hath life in his person, so hath he given also to the Son to have life in his person,
27 Uye vakamupa simba rokuti atonge nokuti ndiye Mwanakomana woMunhu.
and hath empowered him also to execute judgment. Because he is the Son of man,
28 “Musashamiswa pane izvi, kuti nguva inouya yokuti vose vari mumakuva avo vachanzwa inzwi rake
marvel not at this; for the hour cometh when all they who are in the sepulchres shall hear his voice,
29 uye vachamuka; vose vakaita zvakanaka vachamuka vachienda kuupenyu, uye avo vakaita zvakaipa vachamuka vachienda kukutongwa.
and shall come forth; they who have done good unto the resurrection of life, and they who have done evil unto the resurrection of condemnation.
30 Ini ndoga handigoni kuita chinhu; ndinongotonga sezvandinenge ndanzwa, uye kutonga kwangu kwakarurama, nokuti handitsvaki kuzvifadza asi iye akandituma.
I CANNOT of the will of myself do any thing; but as I hear I judge, and my judgment is just; for I seek not my will, but the will of Him who sent me.
31 “Kana ndichizvipupurira, uchapupu hwangu hahuna maturo.
If I should witness concerning myself, my testimony would not be (regarded as) truth:
32 Pano mumwe anondipupurira, uye ndinoziva kuti uchapupu hwake pamusoro pangu ndohwechokwadi.
there is another who witnesseth of me, and I know that true is his testimony which he hath witnessed of me.
33 “Makatuma nhume kuna Johani naiye akapupurira chokwadi.
You sent to Juchanon, and he witnessed of the truth.
34 Hazvirevi kuti ndinogamuchira kupupura kwavanhu; asi ndareva izvi kuti muponeswe.
But I do not from man (only) receive testimony. But these (things) speak I that you may be saved.
35 Johani akanga ari mwenje waipfuta uye uchivhenekera, uye imi makasarudza kufara kwenguva duku muchiedza chake.
He was a lamp that burneth and shineth, and you were willing to glory for the hour in his light.
36 “Ndino uchapupu hukuru kupfuura hwaJohani. Nokuti iro basa chairo randakapiwa naBaba kuti ndiripedze, uye randiri kuita, rinondipupurira kuti Baba vakandituma.
But I have a testimony which is greater than that of Juchanon; for the works that the Father hath given me to accomplish, these works that I do testify of me that the Father hath sent me.
37 Uye ivo Baba vakandituma vakapupura pachavo pamusoro pangu. Hamuna kutombonzwa inzwi ravo kana kuona chimiro chavo,
And the Father who hath sent me, he testifieth of me: but his voice you have never heard, nor his appearance seen.
38 uye shoko ravo harigari mukati menyu, nokuti hamutendi iye waakatuma.
And his word abideth not in you, because in Him whom he hath sent you do not believe.
39 Munoshingaira kunzvera magwaro nokuti munofunga kuti maari mune upenyu husingaperi. Magwaro iwaya anopupura pamusoro pangu, (aiōnios g166)
Investigate the scriptures; for in them you think you have the life that is eternal, and they testify of me. (aiōnios g166)
40 asi imi munoramba kuuya kwandiri kuti muve noupenyu.
And you will not come to me that the life that is eternal you might have.
41 “Handigamuchiri kurumbidzwa kunobva kuvanhu,
Glory from the sons of men I receive not.
42 asi ndinokuzivai. Ndinoziva kuti hamuna rudo rwaMwari mumwoyo yenyu.
But I know you, that the love of Aloha is not in you.
43 Ndakauya muzita raBaba vangu, asi hamundigamuchiri; asi kana mumwewo zvake akauya muzita rake, muchamugamuchira.
I have come in the name of my Father, and you have not received me.
44 Mungatenda seiko kana muchikudzana pachenyu asi musingashingairiri kuwana kurumbidzwa kunobva kuna Mwari oga?
If another should come in his own name, him you would receive. How can you believe, who glory one from another are receiving, and the glory which is from one, Aloha, you seek not?
45 “Asi musafunga kuti ndichakupomerai mhosva pamberi paBaba. Mupomeri wenyu ndiMozisi, wamunoisa tariro yenyu maari.
How think you that I will accuse you before the Father? There is one who accuseth you, Musha himself, in whom you hope.
46 Dai maitenda Mozisi, mungadai maitendawo ini, nokuti akanyora nezvangu.
For if in Musha you had believed, you would also have believed in me; for Musha of me hath written.
47 Asi sezvo musingatendi zvaakanyora, muchatenda seiko zvandinoreva?”
But if his writings you believe not, how my words will you believe?
