Yesu neegheesi̱ya Nikodemu
Hakaba haliyo musaasa li̱i̱na liye Nikodemu, akaba ali Mufali̱saayo, kandi ali mu̱lemi̱ mu Bayu̱daaya. Kilo kimui mukilo aaghenda hambali Yesu ali, aamughila ati, “Mwegheesi̱ya, tumani̱ye ngoku Luhanga aaku̱tu̱mi̱ye kwegheesi̱ya ebi akubbalagha ati bantu bakole. Nanga taaliyo oghu akugubha kukola byakulolelʼo byakuswekani̱ya okukolagha ebi kuuyʼo Luhanga aliiye amu̱tu̱mi̱ye kubikola.”
Yesu aamukuukamu ati, “Mbaghambiiye majima ghoonini, kuuyʼo muntu atodhi̱ye abyahuwe buhyaka, taakugubha kuba mu bu̱lemi̱ bwa Luhanga.”
Nikodemu aabu̱u̱li̱ya Yesu ati, “Buuye muntu naamali̱ye kuba muntu mukulu akugubha ati̱ya kutodha ku̱byaluwa? Nkimani̱ye takikugubhukana eye kutodha kukuuka munda ya ni̱na wee kutodha ku̱byaluwa!”
Yesu aamukuukamu ati, “Nkughambiiye majima ghoonini, taaliyo muntu nʼomui oghu akugubha kuba mu bu̱lemi̱ bwa Luhanga, kuuyʼo abyahuwe kukwama mu maasi kandi mu Mwoyo Ahi̱ki̱li̱i̱ye. Bantu baku̱byalagha mubili ghwonkaha, bhaatu Mwoyo Ahi̱ki̱li̱i̱ye niiye akuhaagha bwomi̱i̱li̱ bwa mwoyo.” Eki naaghambi̱ye nti mukulaghiluwa ku̱byaluwa buhyaka kitakuswekani̱ya. Ngoku okugubha ku̱u̱ghu̱wa mpwegha neehunga hambali ebbali̱ye, bhaatu otaakugubha kughambila bantu hambali ekwete kughenda kedha ku̱lu̱gha, niikuwo otaakugubha kusoboolola bantu ngoku Mwoyo Ahi̱ki̱li̱i̱ye akuhaagha bwomi̱i̱li̱ buhyaka.
Nikodemu aabu̱u̱li̱ya Yesu ati, “Eki kikugubhukana ki̱ti̱ya?”
10 Yesu aamukuukamu ati, “Uwe mwegheesi̱ya wa di̱i̱ni̱ bahu̱ti̱i̱ye mu bantu baa I̱saaleeli̱, taweetegheleei̱ye ebi naabu̱ghi̱ye haa ku̱byaluwa buhyaka? 11 Nkughambiiye majima ghoonini, tu̱ku̱bu̱ghagha ebi tumani̱ye, kandi tuha buukai̱so bwa ebi twaboone. Bhaatu enu̱we mukubhengagha ku̱si̱i̱ma buukai̱so bwatu. 12 Mulakaba mu̱bhengi̱ye ku̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja ebi nkwete kubaghambila haa bikwete kulehukana munsi, mulahi̱ki̱li̱ja mu̱ti̱ya nankabha mbaghambila haa bikwete kulehukana mu eghulu? 13 Taaliyo muntu nʼomui oghu aalaghendi̱ye mu eghulu kuuyʼo Mwana wa Muntu oghu akalu̱gha mu eghulu. 14 Kandi ngoku Musa aakoli̱ye mu kyoma kisasani̱ kya njoka aakita haa mpaghi mu elungu niikuwo dhee na Mwana wa Muntu balimuta batiyo dhee haa musalaba, 15 niikuwo weena oghu aku̱mu̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja atunge bwomi̱i̱li̱ butahuwʼo.”
16 “Kumanya Luhanga naaku̱ndi̱ye nsi, akahayo Mwana wee omui enkaha, niikuwo weena oghu aku̱mu̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja atahwelekeelela, bhaatu atunge bwomi̱i̱li̱ butahuwʼo. 17 Nanga Luhanga taatu̱mi̱ye Mwana wee munsi ku̱ghi̱twi̱la musango, bhaatu niikuwo nsi egubhe kujunuwa kukwamu mu Mwana oghu. 18 Ti̱ weena oghu aku̱mu̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja, taaku̱twi̱lu̱wa musango, bhaatu weena oghu ataaku̱mu̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja aamali̱ye ku̱twi̱lu̱wa musango nanga taahi̱ki̱li̱i̱je Mwana omui enkaha wa Luhanga. 19 Ku̱twi̱la musango kwa Luhanga niikuwo kuli kuti: kyeleeli̱ akaasa munsi, bhaatu bantu baakunda mweli̱ma kusaali̱ya kyeleeli̱ oghu haabwa kubbala kuukala mbanakola bikoluwa byabo bi̱bhi̱i̱hi̱ye. 20 Weena oghu akuukalagha naakola bikoluwa bi̱bhi̱i̱hi̱ye, okwohagha kyeleeli̱ kandi taakwisagha hambali kyeleeli̱ kili, nanga akwobahagha bikoluwa biye bi̱bhi̱i̱hi̱ye kuboneka. 21 Bhaatu oghu akukolagha byamajima akwisagha hambali kyeleeli̱ kili, niikuwo kyeleeli̱ kigubhe kwoleka bbeni̱-bbeni̱ ngu ebi akwete kukola Luhanga niiye akwete ku̱mu̱gu̱bhi̱i̱si̱ya kubikola.”
Yohaana Mubati̱ji̱ naaha buukai̱so haa Yesu
22 Haanu̱ma yʼebi, Yesu na beeghesebuwa be baaghenda mu di̱si̱tu̱li̱ki̱ti̱ ya Bu̱yu̱daaya hambali aamali̱ye bwile ali hamui nabo kandi naabati̱ja bantu. 23 Bwile obu Yohaana Mubati̱ji̱ naye dhee aabati̱jagha bantu mu mu̱bhi̱li̱ ghwa Ai̱nooni̱ haai na tau̱ni̱ ya Sali̱i̱mu̱ nanga niiyo maasi ghatobheeye ghaabaagha. Kandi bantu bakani̱ye baakalagha mbaasa ewaa Yohaana oghu kubabati̱ja. 24 (Yohaana oghu aabati̱jagha bantu batakamukwete kumuta mu nkomo.) 25 Bamui mu beeghesebuwa baa Yohaana, baatandika kuhakangana na omui mu Bayu̱daaya haa mi̱ghendi̱yo ya kunaaba niikuwo muntu afooke oghu eeli̱ye mu maaso ghaa Luhanga. 26 Niibuwo beeghesebuwa baa Yohaana oghu baasi̱ye hambali ali baamughila bati, “Mwegheesi̱ya, musaasa oghu akaba ali naawe obu waabati̱jagha bantu luhande lweli̱ lwa maasi Yolodaani̱, oghu waatughambiiyʼo, endindi niibuwo aabati̱ja bantu kandi bantu bakani̱ye niibuwo baaghenda hambali ali kubabati̱ja mu ki̱i̱kalo kya kwisa ewaatu.”
27 Yohaana aabakuukamu ati, “Muntu kwonkaha taakugubha kukola eki Luhanga atamu̱si̱i̱mi̱lani̱i̱ye kukikola. 28 Nanga naanu boonini mukugubha kuha buukai̱so muti nkaghila nti, ‘Taani̱i̱si̱ye Ki̱li̱si̱to, bhaatu si̱ye Luhanga akantuma ku̱du̱bha kwisa eye atakaasi̱ye.’ 29 Kili ngoku mugholi akubaagha mukali̱ wa musaasa oghu alimamuswela. Ti̱ bhootu̱ sya mugholi wa busaasa akuukalagha naye kandi ategheeleli̱ya ebi aku̱bu̱gha, kandi akaaku̱u̱ghu̱wagha ngoku mugholi wa busaasa oghu aku̱bu̱gha, aaghu̱wa adheedheeu̱we. Ti̱ oku niikuwo kudheedhuwa oku ndi nakuwo endindi. 30 Bantu bakulaghiluwa ku̱mu̱hu̱ti̱ya kukani̱ye, kandi si̱ye bampu̱ti̱ye kukee.
31 “Yesu oghu akalu̱gha mu eghulu asaai̱ye bantu boona. Ti̱ muntu oghu babyaliiye munsi muni akubaagha muntu kwonkaha, kandi aku̱bu̱ghagha ebi aboone mbilehukana munsi muni. Bhaatu Yesu oghu akalu̱gha mu eghulu asaai̱ye bantu boona. 32 Akuhaagha buukai̱so bwa ebi aaghu̱u̱ye kandi aaboone, bhaatu bantu bakani̱ye bakubhengagha buukai̱so buwe obu. 33 Abaku̱si̱i̱magha buukai̱so buwe, bakubaagha mbooleka ngu ebi Luhanga aku̱bu̱ghagha ni majima. 34 Nanga oghu Luhanga aatu̱mi̱ye oghu aku̱bu̱ghagha bighambo bya Luhanga, nanga Luhanga akamuha bu̱toki̱ bwona buusuuye bwa Mwoyo Ahi̱ki̱li̱i̱ye. 35 Ese Mwana oghu amu̱ku̱ndi̱ye kandi akamuha bu̱toki̱ kulema bu̱li̱ kintu kyona. 36 Weena oghu aku̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja Mwana oghu akutunga bwomi̱i̱li̱ butahuwʼo, bhaatu weena oghu akubhenga ku̱hi̱ki̱li̱ja Mwana oghu taakutunga bwomi̱i̱li̱ butahuwʼo, kandi Luhanga akuukala amughiliiye ki̱i̱ni̱gha.”
