Yohane 7
1 Yei akyi no, Yesu tenaa Galilea a wampɛ sɛ ɔbɛsane akɔ Yudea, ɛfiri sɛ, na Yudafoɔ no rehwehwɛ no akum no.
Ngemva kwalokhu uJesu wahambahamba eGalile, kazathanda ukuya eJudiya ngoba amaJuda alapho ayefuna indlela yokumbulala.
2 Ɛberɛ a Yudafoɔ Asese Afahyɛ no reyɛ aduru no,
Kwathi uMkhosi wamaJuda weziHonqo ususondele
3 Yesu nuanom ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ɛsɛ sɛ wofiri ha sane kɔ Yudea sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ na wʼakyidifoɔ bɛhunu nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a woyɛeɛ no.
abafowabo bakaJesu bathi kuye, “Sekumele usuke lapha uye eJudiya ukuze abafundi bakho babone imimangaliso oyenzayo.
4 Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔgye edin a, ɔmmfa ne nneyɛeɛ nsie. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔma nnipa nyinaa hunu ne nneyɛeɛ.”
Kakho umuntu othi efuna ukuba lodumo asebenzele ensitha. Njengoba usenza izinto lezi ziveze emhlabeni.”
5 Na ne nuanom mpo nnye no nni.
Ngoba labafowabo babengakholwa kuye.
6 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Me berɛ nnuruiɛ; na mo deɛ, ɛberɛ biara yɛ ma mo.
Ngakho uJesu wabatshela wathi, “Kasikafiki isikhathi sami salokho; kini loba yisiphi isikhathi sililungele.
7 Mo deɛ nnipa tan mo a ɛnyɛ yie, nanso me deɛ wɔtan me a ɛyɛ yie, ɛfiri sɛ, daa meka bɔne a wɔyɛ no kyerɛ wɔn.
Umhlaba ngeke ulizonde, kodwa mina uyangizonda ngoba ngiveza ukuthi lokho okwenzayo kubi.
8 Mo deɛ, monni ɛkan nkɔ afahyɛ no, na me deɛ, mennya nkɔeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, me berɛ nnuruiɛ.”
Hambani lina emkhosini. Mina kangikayi emkhosini lowo ngoba kimi kasikafiki isikhathi esifaneleyo.”
9 Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi kyerɛɛ wɔn akyi no, ɔtenaa Galilea.
Esetsho lokhu wazihlalela eGalile.
10 Yesu nuanom, kɔeɛ akyi no, ɔno nso kɔɔ afahyɛ no ase bi a wamma obiara anhunu no.
Kodwa ngemva kokuba abafowabo sebehambile emkhosini laye waya khona, hatshi obala kodwa wahamba ensitha.
11 Yudafoɔ mpanin no hwehwɛɛ no afahyɛ no ase na wɔanhunu no no, wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Onipa a yɛrehwehwɛ no no wɔ he?”
Khonapho emkhosini amaJuda ayemlindele ebuza esithi, “Ingaphi indoda leyana?”
12 Nnipa no kaa ne ho nsɛm huhuhuhu ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔsuro Yudafoɔ mpanin no. Ebinom se, “Ɔyɛ onipa pa.” Na afoforɔ nso se, “Ɔyɛ ɔdaadaafoɔ.”
Phakathi kwamaxuku abantu kwakulokunyenyezelana ngaye. Abanye bathi, “Ungumuntu olungileyo.” Abanye baphendula bathi, “Hatshi, ukhohlisa abantu.”
13 Yudafoɔ mpanin no ho hu enti, obiara antumi annyi nʼanim anka ne ho asɛm wɔ badwa mu.
Kodwa kakho owakhuluma ngaye obala ngokwesaba amaJuda.
14 Afahyɛ no mfimfini no, Yesu kɔɔ asɔredan mu kɔkyerɛkyerɛeɛ.
Kwathi isikhathi somkhosi sesiphakathi laphakathi uJesu wasesiya egumeni lethempeli waqalisa ukufundisa.
15 Ɛberɛ a Yudafoɔ mpanin no tee Yesu nkyerɛkyerɛ no, ɛyɛɛ wɔn nwanwa na wɔbisaa sɛ, “Onipa yi nsuaa nwoma da, na ɛyɛɛ dɛn na ɔtumi kyerɛkyerɛ sɛɛ yi?”
AmaJuda amangala, abuza athi, “Indoda le yaluzuza kanjani ulwazi olungaka yona ingafundanga?”
16 Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Deɛ merekyerɛ no mfiri mʼankasa, na mmom ɛfiri Onyankopɔn a ɔsomaa me no.
UJesu waphendula wathi, “Imfundiso yami kayisiyami. Ivela kulowo ongithumileyo.
17 Sɛ obi pɛ sɛ ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn apɛdeɛ a, ɔbɛhunu sɛ me nkyerɛkyerɛ no firi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn anaa ɛfiri mʼankasa.
Nxa umuntu ekhetha ukwenza intando kaNkulunkulu uzabona ingabe imfundiso yami ivela kuNkulunkulu loba ngiyazikhulumela.
18 Obiara a ɔde nʼadwene kasa no pɛ animuonyam ma ne ho, na obiara a ɔpɛ animuonyam ma deɛ ɔsomaa no no yɛ ɔnokwafoɔ a nnaadaa biara nni ne mu.
Lowo ozikhulumelayo wenzela ukuzizuzela udumo, kodwa lowo osebenzela udumo lwalowo omthumileyo ngumuntu weqiniso; kakulankohliso kuye.
19 Mose amma mo mmara anaa? Nanso, mo mu biara nni saa mmara no so! Adɛn enti na mopɛ sɛ mokum me?”
UMosi kalinikanga yini umthetho? Kodwa kakho lamunye kini owugcinayo umthetho. Kungani lifuna ukungibulala na?”
20 Nnipa no ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Gyama honhommɔne bi hyɛ wo so? Hwan na ɔrehwehwɛ wo akum wo?”
Ixuku labantu laphendula lathi, “Ulamadimoni wena. Ngubani ofuna ukukubulala?”
21 Yesu buaa wɔn sɛ, “Anwanwadeɛ baako pɛ a mayɛ enti na mo ho adwiri mo sɛɛ yi.
UJesu wathi kubo, “Ngenza umangaliso owodwa lamangala kakhulu lonke.
22 Mose maa mo twetiatwa (mpo ɛnyɛ sɛ Mose na ɔhyɛɛ ho mmara na ɛyɛ mo nananom) nanso, motwa twetia homeda.
Kodwa ngoba uMosi walipha ukusoka (loba iqiniso liyikuthi kakuvelanga kuMosi kodwa kubokhokho), liyamsoka umntwana ngeSabatha.
23 Sɛ motwa twetia homeda na moanto Mose mmara a, adɛn enti na sɛ masa obi yadeɛ homeda a, mo bo fu me?
Manje-ke, nxa umntwana engasokwa ngeSabatha kungabi yikuwephula umthetho kaMosi, pho mina lingizondelani ngokuthi ngisilise umuntu ngokupheleleyo ngeSabatha na?
24 Mommmu atɛn kwa. Monhwɛ biribiara a mohunu no yie ansa na moabu ho atɛn.”
Khawulani ukusola ngokubona kwamehlo kodwa yahlulelani ngokuqondileyo.”
25 Nnipa a na wɔwɔ Yerusalem no mu bi bisaa sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ saa onipa yi ne deɛ wɔpɛ sɛ wɔkum no no anaa?
Ngalesosikhathi abanye abantu baseJerusalema babuza bathi, “Kanti kasuye yini umuntu lo abafuna ukumbulala na?
26 Ɔno na ɔrekasa badwa mu a obiara nka hwee nkyerɛ no yi! Gyama afei deɛ mpanimfoɔ no agye no ato mu sɛ ɔne Agyenkwa no.
Nangu phela ekhuluma egcekeni kodwa kabatsho lutho kuye. Kambe iziphathamandla zingabe sezibone ukuthi nguye uKhristu na?
27 Yɛnim sɛ Agyenkwa no nya ba a, obiara rentumi nkyerɛ faako a ɔfiri baeɛ, nanso saa onipa yi deɛ, yɛnim faako a ɔfiri.”
Kodwa siyakwazi thina lapha indoda le edabuka khona; nxa uKhristu esefika, kakho ozakwazi lapho avela khona.”
28 Yesu gu so rekyerɛkyerɛ wɔ asɔredan mu no, ɔteaa mu kaa sɛ, “Ɛwom sɛ monim me na monim faako nso a mefiri baeɛ, nanso, ɛnyɛ me ara me pɛ na mede baeɛ, na deɛ ɔsomaa me no yɛ ɔnokwafoɔ, nanso monnim no;
Kwathi uJesu elokhu esafundisa egumeni lethempeli, wamemeza wathi, “Yebo, liyangazi njalo liyakwazi lapho engivela khona. Kangizibuyelanga lapha kodwa lowo ongithumileyo uqinisile. Kalimazi
29 na me deɛ, menim no ɛfiri sɛ, mefiri ne nkyɛn na mebaeɛ na ɔno na ɔsomaa me.”
kodwa mina ngiyamazi ngoba ngivela kuye, nguye ongithumileyo.”
30 Nʼano siiɛ no, wɔpɛɛ sɛ anka wɔkyere no nanso obiara antumi amfa ne nsa anka no, ɛfiri sɛ, na ne berɛ a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkyere no no nnuruiɛ.
Besizwa lokhu bazama ukumbamba kodwa kakho owambeka isandla ngoba isikhathi sakhe sasingakafiki.
31 Nnipa no mu fa kɛseɛ no ara gyee no dii, na wɔbisaa sɛ, “Sɛ Agyenkwa no ba a, ɔbɛtumi ayɛ anwanwadeɛ bebree sene deɛ ɔbarima yi ayɛ no anaa?”
Loba kunjalo, abanengi exukwini labantu bakholwa kuye. Bathi, “Nxa uKhristu angafika, kambe uzakwenza imimangaliso okwedlula umuntu lo?”
32 Farisifoɔ no tee huhuhuhu no a nnipa no yɛ faa Yesu ho no, wɔne asɔfoɔ mpanin no somaa asɔrefie awɛmfoɔ bi sɛ wɔnkɔkyere Yesu mmra.
AbaFarisi bezwa abantu benyenyeza izinto ezinjalo ngaye. AbaFarisi labaphristi abakhulu basebethuma amanxusa ethempelini ukuba ayembopha.
33 Yesu ka kyerɛɛ nnipakuo no sɛ, “Nna kakra bi na aka me a me ne mo bɛtena na masane akɔ deɛ ɔsomaa me no nkyɛn.
UJesu wathi, “Ngilani okwesikhathi esifitshane, besengihamba ngisiya kuye ongithumileyo.
34 Mobɛhwehwɛ me, nanso morenhunu me, ɛfiri sɛ, faako a merekɔ no morentumi nkɔ hɔ.”
Lizangidinga kodwa lingangifumani; lalapho engikhona lingeke lifike.”
35 Ɛberɛ a Yudafoɔ mpanin no tee asɛm a Yesu kaeɛ no, wɔbisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho sɛ, “Ɛhefa na ɔse ɔrebɛkɔ a enti yɛrenhunu no yi? Anaasɛ ɔpɛ sɛ ɔkɔ Helafoɔ nkuro a Yudafoɔ tete mu no mu kɔkyerɛkyerɛ wɔn?
AmaJuda abuzana athi, “Umuntu lo ufuna ukuya ngaphi lapho esingeke samfumana khona na? Uzakuya ebantwini bakithi abahlakazekileyo abahlala phakathi kwamaGrikhi, afundise amaGrikhi na?
36 Sɛ ɔka sɛ, ‘Mobɛhwehwɛ me, nanso morenhunu me, ɛfiri sɛ, faako a merekɔ no morentumi nkɔ hɔ’ a, na ɔkyerɛ sɛn?”
Ubesitshoni esithi, ‘Lizangidinga, kodwa lingangifumani,’ njalo wathi, ‘Lapho engikhona lingeke lifike’?”
37 Afahyɛ no da a ɛdi akyire a ɛyɛ da titire no, Yesu sɔre gyinaa hɔ kasaa denden sɛ, “Obiara a osukɔm de no no mmra me nkyɛn mmɛnom nsuo.
Ngelanga lokucina elaliqakatheke kakhulu emkhosini, uJesu wasukuma wakhuluma ngelizwi elikhulu wathi, “Nxa ekhona owomileyo keze kimi azonatha.
38 Na Atwerɛsɛm no ka sɛ, ‘Obiara a ɔgye me di no, nsuo a ɛma nkwa bɛtene afiri ne mu.’”
Loba ngubani okholwa kimi njengoba uMbhalo utshilo, imifula yamanzi aphilayo izageleza ngaphakathi kwakhe.”
39 Yesu kaa saa asɛm yi faa Honhom Kronkron a wɔn a wɔgyee no diiɛ no nsa bɛka no ho. Saa ɛberɛ no, na ɔnnya mfaa Honhom Kronkron no mmaa wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, na wɔnnya mmaa ne so nkɔɔ ɔsoro, nhyɛɛ no animuonyam.
Ngalokhu wayesitsho uMoya, okwakuzakuthi labo abakholwa kuye bamamukele ngesikhathi esizayo. Kuze kube yilesosikhathi uMoya wawungakathelwa ebantwini, njengoba uJesu wayengakakhazimuliswa.
40 Nnipa no tee asɛm a Yesu kae no, ebinom kaa sɛ, “Ampa ara, onipa yi ne odiyifoɔ no!”
Sebewazwile amazwi akhe abanye bathi, “Ngeqiniso umuntu lo nguye umphrofethi.”
41 Afoforɔ nso kaa sɛ, “Ɔno ne Kristo no!” Ebinom nso bisaa sɛ, “Ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na Kristo no bɛfiri Galilea?
Abanye bathi, “Nguye uKhristu.” Abanye njalo babuza bathi, “Kungenzeka kanjani ukuthi uKhristu avele eGalile na?
42 Atwerɛsɛm no anka sɛ, saa Kristo no bɛfiri Dawid abusua mu, na wɔbɛwo no wɔ Betlehem kuro a Dawid tenaa mu no mu anaa?”
UMbhalo kawutsho yini ukuthi uKhristu uzavela kusendo lukaDavida, eBhethilehema, umuzi lapho uDavida ayehlala khona.”
43 Yesu enti, nnipa no mu kyekyɛeɛ.
Kanjalo abantu badabukana phakathi ngenxa kaJesu.
44 Ebinom pɛɛ sɛ wɔkyere no, nanso obiara amfa ne nsa anka no.
Abanye babefuna ukumbamba, kodwa kakho owambeka isandla.
45 Asomfoɔ no sane kɔeɛ no, asɔfoɔ mpanin ne Farisifoɔ no bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn enti na moamfa no amma?”
Amanxusa ethempelini acina esebuyela kubaphristi abakhulu labaFarisi athi, “Kungani lingezanga laye?”
46 Asomfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Nsɛm a onipa no ka no, ɛyɛ nwanwa na yɛntee bi da.”
Amanxusa afakaza athi, “Kakho osewake wakhuluma njengaloyamuntu.”
47 Farisifoɔ no sane bisaa asomfoɔ no sɛ, “Mo nso wadaadaa mo anaa?
AbaFarisi bakhwaza bathi, “Litsho ukuthi lani uselikhohlisile?
48 Moahunu sɛ mpanimfoɔ anaa Farisifoɔ no bi agye no adi anaa?
Ukhona na kubabusi loba kubaFarisi osebeke ithemba lakhe kuye?
49 Dabi, ɛremma saa, na mmom ɛyɛ wɔn a wɔnnim mmara no na wɔadome wɔn no na wɔbɛgye no adi.”
Hatshi! Kodwa inkunkuma yabantu le engazilutho ngezomthetho, iqalekisiwe.”
50 Saa ɛberɛ no, na Nikodemo a ɔyɛ Farisini a da bi ɔwiaa ne ho kɔɔ Yesu nkyɛn anadwo no nso wɔ hɔ bi.
UNikhodimasi owayeye kuJesu mandulo, owayengomunye wabo wabuza wathi,
51 Ɔno na ɔbisaa sɛ, “Enti yɛn mmara ma ho kwan ma yɛbu obi fɔ wɔ ɛberɛ a yɛntee nʼanom asɛm, nhunuu deɛ wayɛ anaa?”
“Kanti umthetho wakithi uyamlahla na umuntu engaqalanga wabuzwa ukuthi yena uthini ngokwakhe?”
52 Wɔbuaa no sɛ, “Wo nso wofiri Galilea anaa? Hwehwɛ Atwerɛsɛm no mu yie na wobɛhunu sɛ odiyifoɔ biara rentumi mfiri Galilea da.”
Baphendula bathi, “Lawe uvela eGalile yini? Ake ukudingisise, uzabona ukuthi kakulamphrofethi ongaphuma eGalile.” [
53 Afei, obiara firii hɔ kɔeɛ a wɔantumi ansi gyinaeɛ biara.
Ngakho bonke basuka baya emizini yabo.
