John 5
1 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí, àjọ àwọn Júù kan kò; Jesu sì gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
After these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
2 Adágún omi kan sì wà ní Jerusalẹmu, létí bodè àgùntàn, tí a ń pè ní Betisaida ní èdè Heberu, tí ó ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà márùn-ún.
and there is in Jerusalem by the sheep -[gate] a pool that is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches,
3 Ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ odò yìí ni ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn abirùn ènìyàn máa ń gbé dùbúlẹ̀ sí, àwọn afọ́jú, arọ àti aláàrùn ẹ̀gbà.
in these were lying a great multitude of the ailing, blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water,
for a messenger at a set time was going down in the pool, and was troubling the water, the first then having gone in after the troubling of the water, became whole of whatever sickness he was held.
5 Ọkùnrin kan wà níbẹ̀, ẹni tí ó tí wà ní àìlera fún ọdún méjìdínlógójì.
and there was a certain man there being in ailment thirty and eight years,
6 Bí Jesu ti rí i ní ìdùbúlẹ̀, tí ó sì mọ̀ pé ó pẹ́ tí ó ti wà bẹ́ẹ̀, ó wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ fẹ́ kí a mú ọ láradá bí?”
him Jesus having seen lying, and having known that he is already a long time, he saith to him, 'Dost thou wish to become whole?'
7 Abirùn náà dá a lóhùn wí pé, “Arákùnrin, èmi kò ní ẹni tí ìbá gbé mi sínú adágún, nígbà tí a bá ń rú omi náà, bí èmi bá ti ń bọ̀ wá, ẹlòmíràn a sọ̀kalẹ̀ sínú rẹ̀ síwájú mi.”
The ailing man answered him, 'Sir, I have no man, that, when the water may be troubled, he may put me into the pool, and while I am coming, another doth go down before me.'
8 Jesu wí fún un pé, “Dìde, gbé àkéte rẹ, kí o sì máa rìn.”
Jesus saith to him, 'Rise, take up thy couch, and be walking;'
9 Lọ́gán, a sì mú ọkùnrin náà láradá, ó sì gbé àkéte rẹ̀, ó sì ń rìn. Ọjọ́ náà sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ ìsinmi.
and immediately the man became whole, and he took up his couch, and was walking, and it was a sabbath on that day,
10 Nítorí náà àwọn Júù wí fún ọkùnrin náà tí a mú láradá pé, “Ọjọ́ ìsinmi ni òní; kò tọ́ fún ọ láti gbé àkéte rẹ.”
the Jews then said to him that hath been healed, 'It is a sabbath; it is not lawful to thee to take up the couch.'
11 Ó sì dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Ẹni tí ó mú mi láradá, ni ó wí fún mi pé, ‘Gbé àkéte rẹ, kí o sì máa rìn.’”
He answered them, 'He who made me whole — that one said to me, Take up thy couch, and be walking;'
12 Nígbà náà ni wọ́n bi í lérè wí pé, “Ọkùnrin wo ni ẹni tí ó wí fún ọ pé gbé àkéte rẹ, kí o sì máa rìn?”
they questioned him, then, 'Who is the man who is saying to thee, Take up thy couch and be walking?'
13 Ẹni tí a mú láradá náà kò sì mọ̀ ẹni tí ó jẹ́ nítorí Jesu ti kúrò níbẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ wà níbẹ̀.
But he that was healed had not known who he is, for Jesus did move away, a multitude being in the place.
14 Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu rí i nínú tẹmpili ó sì wí fún un pé, “Wò ó, a mú ọ láradá: má ṣe dẹ́ṣẹ̀ mọ́, kí ohun tí ó burú ju èyí lọ má ba à bá ọ!”
After these things, Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, 'Lo, thou hast become whole; sin no more, lest something worse may happen to thee.'
15 Ọkùnrin náà lọ, ó sì sọ fún àwọn Júù pé, Jesu ni ẹni tí ó mú òun láradá.
The man went away, and told the Jews that it is Jesus who made him whole,
16 Nítorí èyí ni àwọn Júù ṣe inúnibíni sí Jesu, wọ́n sì ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa á, nítorí tí o ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí ní ọjọ́ ìsinmi.
and because of this were the Jews persecuting Jesus, and seeking to kill him, because these things he was doing on a sabbath.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Baba mi ń ṣiṣẹ́ títí di ìsinsin yìí, èmi náà sì ń ṣiṣẹ́.”
And Jesus answered them, 'My Father till now doth work, and I work;'
18 Nítorí èyí ni àwọn Júù túbọ̀ ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa á, kì í ṣe nítorí pé ó ba ọjọ́ ìsinmi jẹ́ nìkan ni, ṣùgbọ́n ó wí pẹ̀lú pé, Baba òun ni Ọlọ́run jẹ́, ó ń mú ara rẹ̀ bá Ọlọ́run dọ́gba.
because of this, then, were the Jews seeking the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the sabbath, but he also called God his own Father, making himself equal to God.
19 Nígbà náà ni Jesu dáhùn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ọmọ kò lè ṣe ohunkóhun fún ara rẹ̀, bí kò ṣe ohun tí ó bá rí pé Baba ń ṣe, nítorí ohunkóhun tí baba bá ń ṣe, ìwọ̀nyí ni ọmọ náà sì ń ṣe pẹ̀lú.
Jesus therefore responded and said to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything of himself, if he may not see the Father doing anything; for whatever things He may do, these also the Son in like manner doth;
20 Nítorí Baba fẹ́ràn ọmọ, ó sì ti fi ohun gbogbo tí ó ń ṣe hàn án, òun yóò sì fi iṣẹ́ tí ó tóbi jù wọ̀nyí lọ hàn án, kí ẹnu lè yà yín.
for the Father doth love the Son, and doth shew to him all things that He himself doth; and greater works than these He will shew him, that ye may wonder.
21 Nítorí pé, gẹ́gẹ́ bí Baba ti ń jí òkú dìde, tí ó sì ń sọ wọ́n di alààyè: bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọmọ ń sọ àwọn tí ó fẹ́ di alààyè pẹ̀lú.
'For, as the Father doth raise the dead, and doth make alive, so also the Son doth make alive whom he willeth;
22 Nítorí pé Baba kì í ṣe ìdájọ́ ẹnikẹ́ni, ṣùgbọ́n ó ti fi gbogbo ìdájọ́ lé ọmọ lọ́wọ́,
for neither doth the Father judge any one, but all the judgment He hath given to the Son,
23 kí gbogbo ènìyàn lè máa fi ọlá fún ọmọ gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ń fi ọlá fún Baba. Ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò bá fi ọlá fún ọmọ, kò fi ọlá fún Baba tí ó ran an.
that all may honour the Son according as they honour the Father; he who is not honouring the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him.
24 “Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi, tí ó bá sì gba ẹni tí ó rán mi gbọ́, ó ní ìyè tí kò nípẹ̀kun, òun kì yóò sì wá sí ìdájọ́; ṣùgbọ́n ó ti ré ikú kọjá bọ́ sí ìyè. (aiōnios g166)
'Verily, verily, I say to you — He who is hearing my word, and is believing Him who sent me, hath life age-during, and to judgment he doth not come, but hath passed out of the death to the life. (aiōnios g166)
25 Lóòótọ́, lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, wákàtí náà ń bọ̀, ó sì dé tán nísinsin yìí, nígbà tí àwọn òkú yóò gbọ́ ohùn Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, àwọn tí ó bá gbọ́ yóò sì yè.
'Verily, verily, I say to you — There cometh an hour, and it now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and those having heard shall live;
26 Nítorí pé gẹ́gẹ́ bí Baba ti ní ìyè nínú ara rẹ̀; gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó sì fi fún ọmọ láti ní ìyè nínú ara rẹ̀;
for, as the Father hath life in himself, so He gave also to the Son to have life in himself,
27 Ó sì fún un ní àṣẹ láti máa ṣe ìdájọ́ pẹ̀lú, nítorí tí òun jẹ́ Ọmọ Ènìyàn.
and authority He gave him also to do judgment, because he is Son of Man.
28 “Kí èyí má ṣe yà yín lẹ́nu; nítorí pé wákàtí ń bọ̀, nínú èyí tí gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà ní ibojì yóò gbọ́ ohun rẹ̀.
'Wonder not at this, because there doth come an hour in which all those in the tombs shall hear his voice,
29 Wọn ó sì jáde wá; àwọn tí ó ṣe rere, sí àjíǹde ìyè; àwọn tí ó sì ṣe búburú sí àjíǹde ìdájọ́.
and they shall come forth; those who did the good things to a rising again of life, and those who practised the evil things to a rising again of judgment.
30 Èmi kò le ṣe ohun kan fún ara mi, bí mo ti ń gbọ́ ni, mo ń dájọ́, òdodo sì ni ìdájọ́ mi; nítorí èmi kò wá ìfẹ́ ti èmi fúnra mi, bí kò ṣe ìfẹ́ ti ẹni tí ó rán mi.
'I am not able of myself to do anything; according as I hear I judge, and my judgment is righteous, because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father who sent me.
31 “Bí èmi bá ń jẹ́rìí ara mi, ẹ̀rí mi kì í ṣe òtítọ́.
'If I testify concerning myself, my testimony is not true;
32 Ẹlòmíràn ni ẹni tí ń jẹ́rìí mi; èmi sì mọ̀ pé, òtítọ́ ni ẹ̀rí mi tí ó jẹ́.
another there is who is testifying concerning me, and I have known that the testimony that he doth testify concerning me is true;
33 “Ẹ̀yin ti ránṣẹ́ lọ sọ́dọ̀ Johanu, òun sì ti jẹ́rìí sí òtítọ́.
ye have sent unto John, and he hath testified to the truth.
34 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò gba ẹ̀rí lọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn, nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni èmi ń sọ, kí ẹ̀yin lè là.
'But I do not receive testimony from man, but these things I say that ye may be saved;
35 Òun ni fìtílà tí ó ń jó, tí ó sì ń tànmọ́lẹ̀, ẹ̀yin sì fẹ́ fún sá à kan láti máa yọ̀ nínú ìmọ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀.
he was the burning and shining lamp, and ye did will to be glad, for an hour, in his light.
36 “Ṣùgbọ́n èmi ní ẹ̀rí tí ó pọ̀jù ti Johanu lọ. Nítorí iṣẹ́ tí Baba ti fi fún mi láti ṣe parí, iṣẹ́ náà pàápàá tí èmi ń ṣe náà ń jẹ́rìí mi pé, Baba ni ó rán mi.
'But I have the testimony greater than John's, for the works that the Father gave me, that I might finish them, the works themselves that I do, they testify concerning me, that the Father hath sent me.
37 Àti Baba tìkára rẹ̀ tí ó rán mi ti jẹ́rìí mi. Ẹ̀yin kò gbọ́ ohùn rẹ̀ nígbà kan rí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ kò rí ìrísí rẹ̀.
'And the Father who sent me Himself hath testified concerning me; ye have neither heard His voice at any time, nor His appearance have ye seen;
38 Ẹ kò sì ní ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ láti máa gbé inú yín, nítorí ẹni tí ó rán, òun ni ẹ̀yin kò gbàgbọ́.
and His word ye have not remaining in you, because whom He sent, him ye do not believe.
39 Ẹ̀yin ń wá ìwé mímọ́ nítorí ẹ̀yin rò pé nínú wọn ni ẹ̀yin ní ìyè tí kò nípẹ̀kun. Wọ̀nyí sì ni àwọn tí ó ń jẹ́rìí mi. (aiōnios g166)
'Ye search the Writings, because ye think in them to have life age-during, and these are they that are testifying concerning me; (aiōnios g166)
40 Ẹ̀yin kò sì fẹ́ láti wá sọ́dọ̀ mi, kí ẹ̀yin ba à lè ní ìyè.
and ye do not will to come unto me, that ye may have life;
41 “Èmi kò gba ògo lọ́dọ̀ ènìyàn.
glory from man I do not receive,
42 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi mọ̀ pé, ẹ̀yin fúnra yín kò ní ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run nínú yín.
but I have known you, that the love of God ye have not in yourselves.
43 Èmi wá ní orúkọ Baba mi, ẹ̀yin kò sì gbà mí; bí ẹlòmíràn bá wá ní orúkọ ara rẹ̀, òun ni ẹ̀yin yóò gbà.
'I have come in the name of my Father, and ye do not receive me; if another may come in his own name, him ye will receive;
44 Ẹ̀yin ó ti ṣe lè gbàgbọ́, ẹ̀yin tí ń gba ògo lọ́dọ̀ ara yín tí kò wá ògo tí ó ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run nìkan wá?
how are ye able — ye — to believe, glory from one another receiving, and the glory that [is] from God alone ye seek not?
45 “Ẹ má ṣe rò pé, èmi ó fi yín sùn lọ́dọ̀ Baba, ẹni tí ń fi yín sùn wà, àní Mose, ẹni tí ẹ̀yin gbẹ́kẹ̀lé.
'Do not think that I will accuse you unto the Father; there is who is accusing you, Moses — in whom ye have hoped;
46 Nítorí pé ẹ̀yin ìbá gba Mose gbọ́, ẹ̀yin ìbá gbà mí gbọ́, nítorí ó kọ ìwé nípa tèmi.
for if ye were believing Moses, ye would have been believing me, for he wrote concerning me;
47 Ṣùgbọ́n bí ẹ̀yin kò bá gba ìwé rẹ̀ gbọ́, ẹ̀yin ó ti ṣe gbà ọ̀rọ̀ mi gbọ́?”
but if his writings ye believe not, how shall ye believe my sayings?'
