John 5 (SCH) · Opened

1Masuole chu, Jisua Jerusalema Judah sakhuo tienga khohoi aom sikin a sea.Some time later there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

2Jerusalem Belri Mokot kôla han dîl inkhat aoma, Hebrew chongin Bethzatha an ti ngâi; ma dîl han bokrop rangnga aoma.Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool with five covered colonnades, which in Hebrew is called Bethesda.

3Ma bokropngei han damloi ngei loko tamtak an jâla mitcho ngei, kholra ngei le phalkhatthi ngei, tui singânsa zora an ngâka,On these walkways lay a great number of the sick, the blind, the lame, and the paralyzed.

4a kakâra dîl han vântîrton, a juonga, tui ha a juong chek ngâi. Ma tui singânsa zora han dîla a lût masatak chu i-anga natna khomnirese an dam ngêt ngâi.Not in the BSB

5Mi inkhat kum sômthum leiriet damloi a oma.One man there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.

6Jisua'n a jâlin ava mua, male zora sôt tak renga damloia om ani ti a rieta; masikin a kôm, “Dam rang no jôt mo?” tiin a rekela.When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long time in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

7Hanchu damloipu han, “Pu, tui singânsa zora dîla mi juong thak rang lak dôn mu-ung; ke se khomin mîn, min khêl nôk ngâi,” tiin a thuona.“Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am on my way, someone else goes in before me.”

8Jisua'n a kôm, “Inthoi inla, na jâmpher louk inla, lôn ta roh,” a tipea.Then Jesus told him, “Get up, pick up your mat, and walk.”

9Ha mi han voikhatrengin a hong dam kelena; a jâmpher chôiin a lôn phut kelen zoi. Ma nikhuo hah sabbathni ania,Immediately the man was made well, and he picked up his mat and began to walk. Now this happened on the Sabbath day,

10masikin Juda rachamneipungeiin a dampu kôm han, “Avien hin sabbathni kêng ani, jâmpher chôia lôn hi ei balam nimak,” an tipea.so the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “This is the Sabbath! It is unlawful for you to carry your mat.”

11Ama han an kôm, “Ni mindampu'n, ‘Na jâmpher louk inla, lôn ta roh’ mi ti kêng,” tiin a thuona.But he answered, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”

12Anni ngei han, “Hi anga tho ranga nang rilpu hah tumo ani?” tiin an rekela.“Who is this man who told you to pick it up and walk?” they asked.

13Hannirese, ha a dampu han Jisua hah tumo ani riet mak, ha muna han mipui an tam sikin Jisua chu a rotpat zoi.But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while the crowd was there.

14Chomol suole chu, Jisua'n ama hah Biekina a mua male a kôm, “Rangâi roh, na dam zoi ani; masikin nunsie tho nôk khâi no roh, nu chunga natna saloi uol hong tung nih,” a tia.Afterward, Jesus found the man at the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you.”

15Masuole chu ha mi han Juda rachamneipungei kôm a mindampu chu Jisua ani ti ava ril ngeia.And the man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

16Masikin sabbathni mi a mindam an ti sikin Jisua hah dûk an mintong zoi.Now because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews began to persecute Him.

17Jisua'n an kôm, “Ka Pa'n sin a tho tit ngâia, male kei khom sin ko tho ngêt rang ani,” tiin a thuon ngeia.But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working.”

18Ma anghan a ti sikin Juda rachamneipungeiin that rang an bôk uol nôk zoi; Sabbathni balam a siet ti vai niloiin, Pathien hah a Pa angin a bêa, ama khom Pathien leh ân-angin ânbê ti sika khom ani.Because of this, the Jews tried all the harder to kill Him. Not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He was even calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

19Masikin Jisua'n a thuon ngeia, “Chongdik tak nangni ki ril: Nâipasal athenin ite tho thei maka; a Pa sintho a mu ngei kai vai ke a tho ngâi. Pa'n sin a tho kai ke Nâipasal khomin a tho ngâi ani.So Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself, unless He sees the Father doing it. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does.

20Pa'n Nâipasal a lungkhama male a tho murdi a min mu ngâi ani. Hi nêka neinun roiinpui a tho rang khom la min mûng atih, male nin rêngin nin la kamâm rang ani.The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these.

21Pa'n mithi a kaithoia ringna a pêk ngei anghan, Nâipasal khomin a nuom kai chu a min ring ngâi.For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

22Pa'n tute roijêk pe ngâi maka. Roijêk rangin Nâipasal kôm kêng rachamneina akipin a pêk zoia,Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son,

23masikin mi murdi'n Pa mirit an tho anghan Nâipasal khom mirit an tho theina rangin. Tukhom Nâipasal mirit tho loi kai chu Pa a tîrpu mirit tho loi ani.so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

24“Chongdik tak nangni ki ril: Tukhom ko chong rieta mi tîrpu iem kaiin chu kumtuong ringna an dôn zoi. Theiloi changin om mak ngeia, thina renga an jôka ringna han an lût zoi ani.Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life.

25Chongdik tak nangni ki ril: azora atung rang ani zoi, atûn khom atung tir zoi, male mithi ngeiin Pathien Nâipasal rôl riet an ta, a riet ngei kai chu hong ring an tih.Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

26Pa ha ringna nâr ani anghan, Nâipasal khom ringna nârin a sin ani.For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself.

27Male Miriem Nâipasal ani sikin a kôm roijêk rangin rachamneina a pêk ani.And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

28Ma hi kamâm no roi; azora atung rang ani zoi, ma tikin chu mithi ngeiin a rôl riet an ta,Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice

29male an thânngei renga hôn thoi an ta: sin sa tho ngei chu ringna changin inthoi nôk an ta, sin saloi tho ngei chu theiloi changin inthoi nôk an tih.and come out—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.

30“Ke thena rachamneinân ite tho thei mu unga; Pathien'n ni ril lam anghan roi ke jêk ani, masikin ko roijêk chu adik ani. Keima ku nuom hi sin rangin bôk mu unga, mi tîrpu lungdo kêng sin rang ko bôk ani.I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

31“Ku thurchi nanâk misîr ronga, ku thurchi misîr ha adik tiin pom thei ni no ni.If I testify about Myself, My testimony is not valid.

32Aniatachu ku thurchi mi aminrietpu chu mi dang ania, male ama'n ku thurchi a misîr hah adik ti ki riet.There is another who testifies about Me, and I know that His testimony about Me is valid.

33Nangnin John kôm thangtheipungei nin tîra, ama han chongtak ruthûlin chong nangni a lei rila.You have sent to John, and he has testified to the truth.

34Munisi rietpuipu ko dôn ngêt rang ki ti nimaka; mahi sanminringa nin om theina ranga ki ti ani.Even though I do not accept human testimony, I say these things so that you may be saved.

35John hah châti vârtak le ân-ângtak angin ani, male zora bongkit vai mang rang nin nuom ani anghan.John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you were willing for a season to bask in his light.

36Hannirese, rietpuipu ko dôn hi chu John minrietna chong nêkin a roiinpui uol: Khoimo ko tho, ma hah, Pa'n sintho ranga mi pêk ani, ki sintho ngêt hin Pa mi tîr ani ti ku thurchi a minriet ani.But I have testimony more substantial than that of John. For the works that the Father has given Me to accomplish—the very works I am doing—testify about Me that the Father has sent Me.

37Male Pa mi tîrpu khom han a minriet zoi, nangnin chu khotik lâi khomin a rôl la riet ngâi mak chei, a mêl khom la mu mak chei,And the Father who sent Me has Himself testified about Me. You have never heard His voice nor seen His form,

38male a chong khom nin mulungrîlngeia vong ngâi mak chei, a tîrpu hi nin iem loi sikin.nor does His word abide in you, because you do not believe the One He sent.

39Asûnga kumtuong ringna aom ti nin sabei sikin, Pathien Lekhabungei ha nin pore ngâi. Male Pathien Lekhabungei han ku thurchi an misîr ani!You pore over the Scriptures because you presume that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about Me,

40Hankhoma, ringna nin dôna rangin ko kôm hong jôt ngâi mak chei.yet you refuse to come to Me to have life.

41“Munisi minpâkna rok mu-ung.I do not accept glory from men,

42Aniatachu kho anga miriem mo nin ni nangni ki riet, male nin mulungrîlngei han Pathien lungkhamna dôn mak chei ti ki riet.but I know you, that you do not have the love of God within you.

43Ka pa rachamneina leh ku juong ani, hannirese mi modôm mak choia; nikhomrese, tumakhatin ama rachamin hong rese chu lei modôm nin tih.I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.

44Pathien inkhat vai renga minpâkna man rang nuom mak choia, inkhat le inkhat inpâk inlôm kêng nin min luta; nônte, kho angin mo mi nin iem rang?How can you believe if you accept glory from one another, yet do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

45Nikhomrese, keiman Pa makunga nangni doi ki tih tiin mindon no roi. Nangni doi rang chu mi inkhat aom, nin sabeipu Moses ha.Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, in whom you have put your hope.

46Moses nin iem tatakin chu, kei khom mi nin iem rang ani; ama han ku chungroi kêng a miziek sikin.If you had believed Moses, you would believe Me, because he wrote about Me.

47Aniatachu a miziek nin iem nônchu, kho angin mo ko chong nin iem thei ranga?” a tia.But since you do not believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”
