John 1
1 In the beginnynge was the worde and the worde was with God: and the worde was God.
Panjiti lipaga kuweriti na Shisoweru, Shisoweru kaweriti pamuhera na Mlungu, nayomberi kaweriti Mlungu.
2 The same was in the beginnynge with God.
Kwanjira kwanja Shisoweru kaweriti pamuhera na Mlungu.
3 All thinges were made by it and with out it was made nothinge that was made.
Kupitila shisoweru, Mlungu kawumbiti vintu vyoseri, kwahera ata shintu shimu shawashiwumbitwi pota nayomberi.
4 In it was lyfe and the lyfe was ye lyght of men
Shisoweru ndo shanzu sha makaliru na makaliru aga gajegiti weru kwa wantu.
5 and the lyght shyneth in the darcknes but the darcknes comprehended it not.
Uweru awu ulangala muntiti na ntiti hapeni izimiziyi uweru awu.
6 There was a man sent from God whose name was Iohn.
Mlungu kamtumiti mjumbi gwakuwi litawu lyakuwi Yohani,
7 The same cam as a witnes to beare witnes of the lyght that all men through him myght beleve.
Yakiziti kuwapitawulira wantu kuusu uweru awu, su woseri wapikiniriti ujumbi na wamijimiri.
8 He was not that lyght: but to beare witnes of the lyght.
Yohani kaweriti ndiri uweru, ira kiziti hera kuwagambira wantu kuusu uweru awu.
9 That was a true lyght which lyghteth all men that come into the worlde.
Awu ndo weru wanakaka, weru wankwiza pasipanu, kuwawalira wantu woseri.
10 He was in ye worlde and the worlde was made by him: and yet the worlde knewe him not.
Shisoweru kaweriti pasipanu. Mlungu kanyawiti pasipanu kupitira Shisoweru, kumbiti wantu wa pasipanu wamumana ndiri.
11 He cam amonge his (awne) and his awne receaved him not.
Kiziti muisi yakuwi mweni, kumbiti wantu wakuwi mweni wamuwanka ndiri.
12 But as meny as receaved him to them he gave power to be the sonnes of God in yt they beleved on his name:
Kumbiti wamonga yawamuwankiti na kumjimira, awa kawayupiti uwezu wa kuwera wana wa Mlungu.
13 which were borne not of bloude nor of the will of the flesshe nor yet of the will of man: but of God.
Womberi waweriti ndiri wana wa Mlungu kwa uwezu wa wantu ama kwa makakala ga nshimba ama kwa kufira kwa muntu, ira Mlungu mweni kawatenditi waweri wana wakuwi.
14 And the worde was made flesshe and dwelt amonge vs and we sawe the glory of it as the glory of the only begotten sonne of ye father which worde was full of grace and verite.
Shisoweru kaweriti muntu, kalikaliti na twenga, kaweriti upendelewu nentu pamuhera na unakaka. Tuwoniti ukwisa wakuwi, ukwisa yakauwankiti, wa Mwana gwa gweka gwa Tati.
15 Iohn bare witnes of him and cryed sayinge: This was he of whome I spake he that cometh after me was before me because he was yer then I.
Yohani kawagambira wantu kuusu Shisoweru. Kabotanga, “Ayu ndo ulii yanumtakuliti shipindi pantakuliti, ‘Paneni kankwiza muntu yumu, yomberi ndo mkulu kuliku neni, toziya kaweriti kala neni naniyiwuki.’”
16 And of his fulnes have all we receaved even (grace) for grace.
Kulawira na upendelewu uvuwa wakuwi, katutekeleriti woseri, katupiti utekeleru na utekeleru.
17 For the lawe was geven by Moses but grace and truthe came by Iesus Christ.
Mlungu katupiti Lilagaliru kupitira Musa, kumbiti upendelewu na unakaka viziti kupitira Yesu Kristu.
18 No ma hath sene God at eny tyme. The only begotte sonne which is in ye bosome of ye father he hath declared him.
Kwahera muntu yakamwoniti Mlungu. Kumbiti Mwana gwa gweka yakaweriti Mlungu na yakaweriti uwega wa Tati gwakuwi, ndo yakatenditi kamanikani.
19 And this is the recorde of Iohn: When the Iewes sent Prestes and Levites from Ierusalem to axe him what arte thou?
Awu ndo upitawu wa Yohani kwa wakulu wa Wayawudi Yerusalemu kulii pawawatumiti watambika wamu na wantu wa ukowu wa Lawi wa numba ya Mlungu wagendi kwa Yohani wamkosiyi, “Gwenga gwa gaa?”
20 And he confessed and denyed not and sayde playnly: I am not Christ.
Yohani kalemiti ndiri kuwankula, ira katakuliti pota na kufifa, kalongiti, “Neni na Kristu ndiri yakasyagulitwi na Mlungu kuwalopoziya wantu.”
21 And they axed him: what then? arte thou Helyas? And he sayde: I am not. Arte thou a Prophete? And he answered no.
Womberi wamkosiya, “Su, gwenga gwa gaa? Gwenga gwa Eliya?” Yohani kawankula, “Ndala, neni ndiri.” Wamkosiya kayi, “Gwenga ndo ulii Mbuyi gwa Mlungu yawamtakuliti?” Yohani Kawankula, “Ndala!”
22 Then sayd they vnto him: what arte thou that we maye geve an answer to them that sent vs: What sayest thou of thy selfe?
Nawomberi wamgambira, “Su, gutugambiri gwenga gwa gaa? Su gutakula hashi kuusu gumweni? Hatugendi kutakula ntambu yagutuwankula kwa walii yawatutumiti.”
23 He sayde: I am the voyce of a cryar in the wyldernes make strayght the waye of the Lorde as sayde the Prophete Esaias.
Yohani kawankula ntambu yakalembiti Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu, “Neni ndo liziwu lya muntu yakabotanga mushiwala, ‘Mnyawi njira yakupitira Mtuwa!’”
24 And they which were sent were of the pharises.
Wajumbi yawatumitwi na Mafalisayu,
25 And they axed him and sayde vnto him: why baptisest thou then yf thou be not Christ nor Helyas nether a Prophet?
wamkosiyiti Yohani, “Paguwera ndiri Kristu, ama Eliya, ama ulii Mbuyi gwa Mlungu, iwera hashi gubatiza?”
26 Iohn answered them sayinge: I baptise with water: but one is come amonge you whom ye knowe not
Yohani kawankula, “Neni mbatiza kwa mashi, kumbiti kwana yumu pakati penu yamummana ndiri.
27 he it is that cometh after me whiche was before me whose sho latchet I am not worthy to vnlose.
Paneni kankwiza, neni herepa ndiri ata kuyopola lugoyi zya vilyatu vyakuwi.”
28 These thinges were done in Bethabara beyonde Iordan where Iohn dyd baptyse.
Vitwatila vyoseri vyavilawiriti Betaniya kusika mwa lushemba lwa Yoridani, pahala Yohani pakawera kankubatiza.
29 The nexte daye Iohn sawe Iesus commyge vnto him and sayde: beholde the lambe of God which taketh awaye the synne of the worlde.
Shirawu yakuwi, Yohani kamwoniti Yesu kankumwizira. Yohani katakula, “Ayu ndo Mwana Kondolu gwa Mlungu, yakawusiya vidoda vya wantu wa pasipanu!
30 This is he of whom I sayde. After me cometh a man which was before me for he was yer then I
Ayu ndo ulii yanumtakuliti, pantakuliti, ‘Paneni kamkwiza muntu yumu mkulu kuliku neni, toziya kaweriti kala neni haneniyiwuki.’
31 and I knew him not: but that he shuld be declared to Israell therfore am I come baptisynge with water.
Namweni numumaniti ndiri, kumbiti niziti kubatiza kwa mashi su yomberi kamanikana kwa wantu wa Israeli.”
32 And Iohn bare recorde sayinge: I sawe the sprete descende from heven lyke vnto a dove and abyde apon him
Na awu ndo upitawu Yohani yakautakuliti, “Moniti Rohu Mnanagala kankusuluka gambira nkunda pakiza kulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu na kumkangalira.
33 and I knewe him not. But he that sent me to baptise in water the same sayde vnto me: apon whom thou shalt se the sprete descende and tary styll on him the same is he which baptiseth with the holy goost.
Neni numumana ndiri kuwera yomberi ndo uliya yanumtakuliti, su Mlungu yakantumiti neni kubatiza kwa mashi, kang'ambiriti, ‘Hagumwoni Rohu pakamsulukira muntu kulawa kumpindi, ndo ulii yakabatiza kwa Rohu Mnanagala.’
34 And I sawe and bare recorde that this is the sonne of God.
Yohani katakuliti, Neni moniti, nuwagambirani nakaka kuwera ayu ndo Mwana gwa Mlungu.”
35 The next daye after Iohn stode agayne and two of his disciples.
Shirawu yakuwi, Yohani kaweriti kayi paliya pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi wawili,
36 And he behelde Iesus as he walked by and sayde: beholde the lambe of God.
pakamwoniti Yesu kankupita katakula, “Ayu ndo Mwana Kondolu gwa Mlungu.”
37 And the two disciples hearde him speake and folowed Iesus.
Wafundwa wawili pawapikaniriti aga, su wagenditi pamuhera na Yesu.
38 And Iesus turned about and sawe them folowe and sayde vnto them: what seke ye? They sayde vnto him: Rabbi (which is to saye by interpretacion Master) where dwellest thou?
Yesu kagalambukiti, kawawoniti wankumfata, su kawakosiya, “Mwankusakula shishi?” Womberi wamwankula, “Rabi” mana yakuwi “mfunda” gulikala koshi?
39 He sayde vnto them: come and se. They came and sawe where he dwelt: and abode with him that daye. For it was about the tenthe houre.
Yesu kawagambira, “Mwizi na mloli.” Iweriti handa saa lilongu pamihi. Su wagenditi pamuhera na yomberi na wapawoniti pahala pakalikaliti. Walikaliti pamuhera na Yesu lishaka lyoseri.
40 One of the two which hearde Iohn speake and folowed Iesus was Andrew Simon Peters brother.
Andereya, mlongu gwa Simoni Peteru, yakampikiniriti Yohani pakalonga na mweni kamfatiti Yesu.
41 The same founde his brother Simon fyrst and sayde vnto him: we have founde Messias which is by interpretacion annoynted:
Andereya kamwoniti kwanja mlongu gwakuwi Simoni, kamgambira, “Tumwoniti ulii Mlopoziya yakasyaguritwi na Mlungu” Ayu ndo Kristu Mlopoziya.
42 and brought him to Iesus. And Iesus behelde him and sayde: thou arte Simon the sonne of Ionas thou shalt be called Cephas: which is by interpretacion a stone.
Su wamjegiti Simoni kwa Yesu. Yesu kamlola Simoni na kalonga, “Litawu lyaku ndo Simoni mwana gwa Yohani, Kumbiti hagushemwi Kefa.” Kwa Shigiriki ndo Peteru, mana yakuwi “Litalawu.”
43 The daye folowynge Iesus wolde goo into Galile and founde Philip and sayde vnto him folowe me.
Shirawu yakuwi Yesu kaamuwiti kugenda Galilaya. Su kamwoniti Filipu, kamgambira, “Gunfati!”
44 Philip was of Bethsaida the cite of Andrew and Peter.
Filipu kaweriti mwenikaya gwa Betisayida, lushi lyawalikaliti ashina Andereya na Peteru.
45 And Philip founde Nathanael and sayde vnto him. We have founde him of whom Moses in the lawe and the prophetes dyd wryte. Iesus the sonne of Ioseph of Nazareth.
Filipu kamwoniti Nataniyeri na kamgambira, “Tumwona ulii mweni Musa kamlembiti mushitabu sha Malagaliru na wambuyi wa Mlungu walembiti kuusu mweni. Mweni ndo Yesu mwana gwa Yosefu, kulawa Nazareti.”
46 And Nathanael sayde vnto him: can ther eny good thinge come out of Nazareth? Philip sayde to him: come and se.
Nataniyeri kamkosiya Filipu, “Kwana shintu shoseri shiherepa shiza kulawa Nazareti?” Filipu kamwankula, “Gwizi guloli.”
47 Iesus sawe Nathanael commynge to him and sayde of him. Beholde a ryght Israelite in who is no gyle.
Yesu pakamwoniti Nataniyeri kankumwizira, katakuliti kuusu yomberi, “Mloli! Ayu ndo Mwisraeli nakaka, kwahera shinika kwakuwi.”
48 Nathanael sayd vnto him: where knewest thou me? Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: Before that Philip called the when thou wast vnder ye fygge tree I sawe the.
Nataniyeri kamkosiya “Gumana ashi neni?” Yesu kamwankula, “Pamberi pa Filipu kukushema, nukuwoniti pagulivagiti pasi pa mtera gwa mkuyu.”
49 Nathanael answered and sayde vnto him: Rabbi thou arte the sonne of God thou arte the kynge of Israel.
Nataniyeri kamwankula, “mfunda, Gwenga ndo Mwana gwa Mlungu! Gwenga gwa Mfalumi gwa Israeli!”
50 Iesus answered and sayd vnto him: Because I sayde vnto the I sawe the vnder the fygge tree thou belevest. Thou shalt se greater thinges then these.
Yesu kamgambira, “Hashi, gujimira toziya nukugambiriti kuwera nukuwoniti pasi pa mtera gwa mkuyu? Haguwoni vikulu nentu vivuwa kuliku avi!”
51 And he sayde vnto him: Verely verely I saye vnto you: herafter shall ye se heven open and the angels of God ascendynge and descendynge over the sonne of man.
Na Yesu kawagambiriti womberi, “Nankuwagambirani mwenga nakaka, hamuwoni kumpindi kwa Mlungu kuvuguka na wantumintumi wa kumpindi pawakwena na kumsulukira Mwana gwa Muntu.”
