< Juan 1 >

1 Sa simula pa lamang ay ang Salita, at ang Salita ay kasama ng Diyos, at ang Salita ay Diyos.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God;
2 Itong Salitang ito ay nasa simula pa kasama ng Diyos.
this One was in the beginning with God;
3 Ang lahat nang mga bagay ay nalikha sa pamamagitan niya, at kung wala siya, ay wala kahit isang bagay ang nilikha na nalikha.
all things happened through Him, and without Him not even one thing happened that has happened.
4 Sa kaniya ay buhay, at ang buhay na iyon ay liwanag sa lahat ng sangkatauhan.
In Him was life, and the life was the light of men,
5 Ang liwanag ay sumisinag sa kadiliman, at ito ay hindi napawi nang kadiliman.
and the light shined in the darkness, and the darkness did not perceive it.
6 May isang lalaki na isinugo mula sa Diyos, na ang pangalan ay Juan.
There came a man—having been sent from God—whose name [is] John,
7 Dumating siya bilang isang saksi upang magpatotoo tungkol sa liwanag, upang ang lahat ay maaaring maniwala sa pamamagitan niya.
this one came for testimony, that he might testify about the Light, that all might believe through him;
8 Hindi si Juan ang liwanag, ngunit naparito upang makapagpatotoo siya tungkol sa liwanag.
that one was not the Light, but—that he might testify about the Light.
9 Iyon ang tunay na liwanag na dumarating sa mundo at iyon ang nagpapaliwanang sa lahat.
He was the true Light, which enlightens every man, coming into the world;
10 Siya ay nasa mundo, at ang mundo ay nalikha sa pamamagitan niya, at ang mundo ay hindi nakakakilala sa kaniya.
He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him:
11 Dumating siya sa kaniyang sariling kababayan, at hindi siya tinanggap ng kaniyang sariling mga kababayan.
He came to [His] own, and [His] own did not receive Him;
12 Ngunit sa kasing-dami nang tumanggap sa kaniya, na naniwala sa kaniyang pangalan, sa kanila niya ipinagkaloob ang karapatang maging mga anak ng Diyos,
but as many as received Him, to them He gave authority to become sons of God—to those believing in His Name,
13 ipinanganak sila hindi sa pamamagitan nang dugo, ni hindi sa pamamagitan nang kagustuhan ng laman, ni hindi sa pamamagitan nang kagustuhan ng tao, kundi sa pamamagitan ng Diyos.
who were begotten, not of blood, nor of will of flesh, nor of will of man, but of God.
14 Ngayon ang Salita ay naging laman at namuhay na kasama namin. Nakita namin ang kaniyang kaluwalhatian, kaluwalhatiang katulad ng nasa nag-iisang natatanging katauhan na naparito mula sa Ama, punong-puno ng biyaya at katotohanan.
And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, glory as of [the] only begotten of [the] Father, full of grace and truth.
15 Pinatotohanan ni Juan ang tungkol sa kaniya at sumigaw na nagsasabi, “Siyang sinabi ko sa inyo, 'Ang darating kasunod ko ay mas higit sa akin, sapagkat siya ay nauna sa akin.'”
John testifies concerning Him, and has cried, saying, “This was He of whom I said, He who is coming after me has come before me, for He was before me.”
16 Sapagkat mula sa kaniyang kapuspusan tayong lahat ay nakatanggap ng sunod-sunod na libreng kaloob.
And we all received out of His fullness, and grace for grace;
17 Sapagkat ang kautusan ay ibinigay sa pamamagitan ni Moises. Biyaya at katotohanan ay dumating sa pamamagitan ni Jesu-Cristo.
for the Law was given through Moses, the grace and the truth came through Jesus Christ.
18 Kailanman, walang tao ang nakakita sa Diyos. Ang isa at nag-iisang katauhan, na mismo ay Diyos, na siyang nasa dibdib ng Ama, nagawa niya siyang maipakilala.
No one has ever seen God; the only begotten God who is on the bosom of the Father—He has expounded [Him].
19 Ngayon ito ang patotoo ni Juan nang ang mga Judio ay nagpadala sa kaniya ng mga pari at mga Levita mula sa Jerusalem para tanungin siyang, “Sino ka?”
And this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites out of Jerusalem, that they might question him, “Who are you?”
20 Malaya niyang inilahad, at hindi ikinaila, ngunit tumugon, “Hindi ako ang Cristo.”
And he confessed and did not deny, and confessed, “I am not the Christ.”
21 Kaya siya ay tinanong nila, “Ano ka kung gayon? Ikaw ba si Elias?” Sabi niya, “Hindi ako.” Sabi nila, “Ikaw ba ang propeta?” Sumagot siya, “Hindi.”
And they questioned him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” And he says, “I am not.” “Are you the prophet?” And he answered, “No.”
22 Pagkatapos ay sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Sino ka, upang may maibigay kaming sagot sa mga nagsugo sa amin? Ano ang masasabi mo tungkol sa iyong sarili?”
Then they said to him, “Who are you, that we may give an answer to those sending us? What do you say concerning yourself?”
23 Sinabi niya, “Ako ang boses ng isang sumisigaw sa ilang: 'Gawin ninyong tuwid ang daraanan ng Panginoon,' gaya nang sinabi ni Isaias na propeta.”
He said, “I [am] a voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the LORD, as Isaiah the prophet said.”
24 Ngayong mayroong mga isinugo duon mula sa mga Pariseo. Tinanong nila siya at sinabi sa kaniya,
And those sent were of the Pharisees,
25 “Kung ganoon bakit ka nagbabautismo kung hindi ikaw ang Cristo, ni hindi si Elias, ni hindi ang propeta?”
and they questioned him and said to him, “Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?”
26 Tumugon si Juan sa kanila sinasabi, “Nagbabautismo ako ng tubig. Subalit, sa kalagitnaan ninyo ay nakatayo ang isang hindi ninyo nakikilala.
John answered them, saying, “I immerse in water, but in the midst of you has stood He whom you have not known, it is this One who is coming after me, who has been before me,
27 Siya ang darating kasunod ko. Hindi ako karapat-dapat na magtanggal ng tali ng kaniyang sandalyas.”
of whom I am not worthy that I may loose the strap of His sandal.”
28 Ang mga bagay na ito ay nangyari sa Bethania sa kabilang ibayo nang Jordan, kung saan si Juan ay nagbabautismo.
These things came to pass in Bethabara, beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing.
29 Sa sumunod na araw nakita ni Juan na paparating si Jesus sa kaniya at sinabi, “Tingnan ninyo, ayun ang kordero ng Diyos na siyang nag-aalis nang mga kasalanan ng mundo!
On the next day John sees Jesus coming to him and says, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who is taking away the sin of the world;
30 Siya ang sinabi ko sa inyo na, 'Ang darating kasunod ko ay mas higit sa akin, sapagkat siya ay nauna sa akin.'
this is He concerning whom I said, After me comes a Man who has come before me, because He was before me:
31 Hindi ko siya nakilala, ngunit ito ay nangyari upang maihayag siya sa Israel na siyang dahilan na ako ay nagbabautismo ng tubig.”
and I did not know Him, but that He might be revealed to Israel, because of this I came immersing in water.”
32 Nagpatotoo si Juan, “Nakita ko ang Espiritu na bumababa mula sa langit tulad ng isang kalapati, at ito ay nanatili sa kaniya.
And John testified, saying, “I have seen the Spirit coming down out of Heaven as a dove, and [that] One remained on Him;
33 Hindi ko siya nakilala, ngunit ang sabi sa akin ng nagsugo sa akin na magbautismo sa tubig, 'Kung kanino mo makikita ang Espiritu na bumababa at nananatili, siya ang magbabautismo ng Banal na Espiritu.'
and I did not know Him, but He who sent me to immerse in water, He said to me, On whomsoever you may see the Spirit coming down, and remaining on Him, this is He who is immersing in the Holy Spirit;
34 Pareho kong nakita at napatotohanan na ito ang Anak ng Diyos.
and I have seen, and have testified, that this is the Son of God.”
35 Muli, sa sumunod na araw, habang si Juan ay nakatayong kasama ang dalawang alagad
On the next day, again, John was standing, and two of his disciples,
36 nakita nila si Jesus na naglalakad sa malapit, at sinabi ni Juan, “Tingnan ninyo, ayun ang Kordero ng Diyos!”
and having looked on Jesus walking, he says, “Behold, the Lamb of God”;
37 Narinig ng dalawang alagad na sinabi ni Juan ito, at sila ay sumunod kay Jesus.
and the two disciples heard him speaking, and they followed Jesus.
38 At si Jesus ay lumingon at nakita silang sumusunod at sinabi sa kanila, “Anung nais ninyo?” Sumagot sila, “Rabi (na ang ibig sabihin ay 'Guro'), saan ka nakatira?”
And Jesus having turned, and having beheld them following, says to them, “What do you seek?” And they said to Him, “Rabbi” (which is, being interpreted, Teacher), “where do You remain?”
39 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Halikayo at tingnan.” At sila ay pumaroon at nakita kung saan siya nakatira; sila ay tumira kasama niya sa araw na iyon sapagkat noon ay halos mag-aalas kuwatro na.
He says to them, “Come and see”; they came and saw where He remains, and they remained with Him that day and the hour was about the tenth.
40 Isa sa dalawang nakarinig na nagsalita si Juan at pagkatapos sumunod kay Jesus ay si Andres na kapatid ni Simon Pedro.
Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard from John, and followed Him;
41 Una niyang nakita ang kaniyang sariling kapatid na si Simon at sinabi sa kaniya, “Nakita na namin ang Mesias,” (na sinalin na, 'ang Cristo').
this one first finds his own brother Simon and says to him, “We have found the Messiah,” (which is, being interpreted, Anointed One),
42 Dinala niya siya kay Jesus. Si Jesus ay tumingin sa kaniya at sinabi, “Ikaw si Simon anak ni Juan. Ikaw ay tatawaging Cepas” (na ang ibig sabihin ay 'Pedro').
and he brought him to Jesus: and having looked on him, Jesus says, “You are Simon, the son of Jonas, you will be called Cephas,” (which is interpreted, A rock).
43 Kinabukasan, nang si Jesus ay nais na umalis para pumunta sa Galilea, nakita niya si Felipe at sinabi sa kaniya, “Sumunod ka sa akin.”
On the next day He willed to go forth to Galilee, and He finds Philip and says to him, “Follow Me.”
44 Ngayon si Felipe ay galing sa Bethsaida, ang lungsod nila Andres at Pedro.
And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter;
45 Natagpuan ni Felipe si Nathanael at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ang siyang naisulat sa kaustusan ni Moises at ng mga propeta - ay nakita namin, si Jesus na taga-Nazaret na anak ni Jose.”
Philip finds Nathanael and says to him, “Him of whom Moses wrote in the Law, and the Prophets, we have found, Jesus the Son of Joseph, who [is] from Nazareth!”
46 Sinabi ni Nathanael, “Maaari bang may magandang bagay na magmula sa Nazaret?” Sinabi ni Felipe sa kaniya, “Halika at tingnan mo.”
And Nathanael said to him, “Is any good thing able to be out of Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
47 Nakita ni Jesus na palapit si Nataniel sa kaniya at sinabi ang tungkol sa kaniya, “Tingnan ninyo, isa ngang tunay na Israelita, na walang panlilinlang.”
Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and He says concerning him, “Behold, truly an Israelite, in whom is no guile”;
48 Sinabi sa kaniya ni Nataniel, “Papaano mo ako nakikilala?” Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi sa kaniya, “Bago ka tawagin ni Felipe, nang nasa ilalim ka ng puno ng igos, nakita na kita.”
Nathanael says to Him, “From where do You know me?” Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip’s calling you, being under the fig tree, I saw you.”
49 Sumagot si Nathanael, “Rabi, ikaw ang Anak ng Diyos! Ikaw ang Hari ng Israel!”
Nathanael answered and says to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God, You are the King of Israel.”
50 Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi sa kaniya, “Dahil ba sa sinabi ko sa iyo, 'Nakita kita sa ilalim ng puno ng igos', naniniwala ka na? Makakakita ka ng mga bagay na mas higit pa kaysa dito.”
Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, you believe; you will see greater things than these”;
51 Sinabi ni Jesus, “Totoo, totoo itong sinasabi ko sa iyo, makikita mong magbukas ang mga kalangitan, at ang mga anghel ng Diyos ay umaakyat at bumababa sa kinaroroonan ng Anak ng Tao.”
and He says to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, from now on you will see Heaven opened, and the messengers of God going up and coming down on the Son of Man.”
