Sura ya 3
1 Basi kwajhele ni Farisayo ambajhe lihina lya muene Nikodemo, mmonga wa bhajumbe wa baraza lya bhayahudi.
2 Munu ojho andotili Bwana Yesu pakilu ni kun'jobhela, “Rabi, tumanyili kujha bhebhe mwalimu kuh'omela kwa K'yara, kwa maana ajhelepi munu jha ibhwesya kubhomba ishara ese syoha sya K'yara isipokujha pamonga ni bhebhe.”
3 Yesu ajibili, “Aminiayi, aminiayi, munu ibhwesyalepi kujhingila mu bhufalme bhwa k'yara kama ahogiliki lepi mara jha pili.”
4 Nikodemo akajobha,” Munu ibhwesya bhuli kuh'ogoleka akajhelayi nseya? Ibhwesya lepi kujhingila mu lileme mwa nyinamunu mara ya pili ni kuhogoleka, je ibhwesya?”
5 Yesu ajibili, “Aminiayi, aminiayi munu kama ahogoliki lepi kwa masi ni kwa Roho, ibhwesya lepi kujhingila mu bhufalme bhwa K'yara.
6 Kyakihogoliki ni mb'ele ni mb'ele, na kyakihogoliki kwa Roho ni roho.
7 Usishangali kwa ndabha nakujobhili, 'ni lazima kuh'ogoleka mara jha pili.'
8 Mp'ongo ghwibhuma popoha pa wilonda ni sauti jhiake mukajhipeleka, lakini mumanyilepi kwa wihoma wala kwa wilota. Ndivyo kyajhijhele hali jha kila jhaahogoliki ni roho.
9 Nikodemo ajibili, kwa kujobha, “Mambo agha ghibhwessekana bhuli?”
10 Yesu akan'jibu, “Bhebhe ghwa mwalimu wa Israeli, hata ughamanyi lepi mambo agha?
11 Aminiayi, aminiayi, nikujobhela khela kyatukimanyili tukakishuhudila kwa khela kya tukibhuene. Lakini mwipokela lepi bhushuda bhwa tete.
12 Kama nibhajobhili mambo agha apa pa duniani na mwiamini lepi, mubetakuamini bhuli nikabhajobhilayi mambo gha kumbinguni?
13 Maana ajhelepi jha akwelili kunani kuhomela kumbinguni isipokujha muene jhaaselili, Mwana ghwa Adamu.
14 Kama vile Musa kya ajhinuili liyoka jangwani, mebhu ni Mwana ghwa Adamu lazima ajhinulibhwayi,
15 ili kwamba bhoha bhabhibetakumwamini bhakabhayi uzima bhwa milele.
16 Kwa maana jinsi ejhe K'yara abhuganili bhulimwengu, kwamba akambosya mwanamunu ghwa pekee, ili kwamba munu yeyioha jhaakamwamini asijhangamili bali ajhelayi ni uzima bhwa milele.
17 Kwa ndabha K'yara antumilepi mwanamunu pa dunia ili kubhuhukumu ulimwengu, bali ulimwengu uokolibhwayi kup'etela muene.
18 Jhaibetakumwamini muene ibetalepi kuhukumulibhwa. Bhebhe jhaiamini lepi tayari amalikuhukumulibhwa kwa ndabha abelikuliamini lihina lya Mwana pekee ghwa K'yara.
19 Ejhe ndo sababu jha hukumu, jha kujha nuru ihidili ulimwengu, lakini bhanadamu bhaganili ngisi zaidi jha nuru kwandabha matendo gha bhene ghajhe maovu.
20 kila munu jhaibhomba mabhibhi akayidadila nuru wala ihidalepi mu nuru ili matendo gha muene ghasihidi kubhakibhwa wazi.
21 Lakini, muene jha ibhomba kweli ihida mu nuru ili matendo gha muene ghabhonekanayi kujha ghabhombibhu kwa utiifu bhwa K'yara.
22 Baada jha agha, Yesu pamonga ni bhanafunzi bha muene bhakalota mpaka nchi ya Yudea. Okhu atumili muda pamonga nabhu na abatisieghe.
23 Henu Yohana pia ajhele ibatisya okhu Ainea karibu ni Salim maana kwajhele ni masi mingi pala. Bhanu bhakajha bhihida kwa muene ni kubatisibhwa,
24 kwa kujha Yohana ajheasopibhulepi mu ligereza.
25 Kisha ghatokili mabishano kati jha bhanafunzi bha Yohana ni Myahudi kuhusu sikukuu sya utakaso.
26 Bhakalota kwa Yohana bhakan'jobhela, “Rabi, muene jhaukajhenaku kwiselya ya kiholo Yorodani, muene ghwashuhudili habari sya muene, langayi, ibatisya ni bhoha bhilota bhakan'kesya.”
27 Yohana ajibili munu ibhwesyalepi kupokela khenu kyokyoha isipokujha kama apelibhu kuh'omela kumbinguni.
28 Mwejhomu mwishuhudila kujha najobhili kujha, 'nene na Kristu lepi', badala jhiake najobhili, 'nitumibhu mbele jha muene.'
29 Muene jha ajhe ni bibi arusi ndo bwana arusi. Henu rafiki wa bwana arusi, jhaijhema ni kup'elekesya ifurahibhwa sana kwa ndabha jha sauti jha bwana arusi. Ejhe henu ndo furaha jha nene jha jhitimiliki.
30 Ilondeka kuzidi, nani nilondeka kup'ongola.
31 Muene jha ihoma kunani, ajhele panani pa fyoha. Muene jha ajhele ghwa ulimwengu ihomela kuulimwengu na ilongela mambo gha kiulimwengu. Muene jha ihomela kumbinguni ajhele panani pa ghoha.
32 Muene ishuhudila ghala ghaaghabhwene ni kughap'eleka, lakini ajhelepi jhaipokela ushuhuda bhwa mwene.
33 Muene jha apokili ushuhuda bhwa muene ahakikishi kujha K'yara ndo mkweli.
34 Kwa ndabha muene jhaatumibhu ni K'yara ilongela malobhi gha K'yara. kwa kujha akampela lepi Roho kwa kip'emu.
35 Baba akan'gana Mwana na ampelili fenu fyoha mu mabhoko gha muene.
36 Muene jha akamwamini Mwana ajhenabhu uzima bhwa milele, lakini kwa muene jha abelikun'tii ibetalepi kubhubhona bhuzima, bali ghadhabu jha K'yara jhikamulana panani pa muene.
