1After these things Jesus walked in Galilee; for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
1To pacoengah Jesu loe Kalili prae ah caeh: Judahnawk mah anih hum han pakrong o pongah, Judah prae thungah amkaeh han koeh ai.
2Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.
2Judahnawk ih Kahni im poih sakhaih atue loe zoi boeh.
3And his brethren said to him: Pass from hence, and go into Judea; that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou dost.
3To naah anih ih nawkamyanawk mah anih khaeah, Hae ahmuen hoiah tacawt ah loe, Judah prae ah caeh ah, to naah ni na sak ih dawnrai hmuennawk to na hnukbang kaminawk mah hnu o tih.
4For there is no man that doth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, manifest thyself to the world.
4Ahmin amthang han koeh kami loe tamquta hoiah hmuen to sah vai ai. Hae hmuennawk hae na sak pongah, nangmah hoi nangmah to long kaminawk khaeah amtuengsak ah, tiah a naa o.
5For neither did his brethren believe in him.
5Angmah ih nawkamyanawk mah mataeng doeh Jesu to tang o ai vop.
6Then Jesus said to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is always ready.
6Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kai ih atue pha ai vop: toe nangcae ih atue loe phak boeh.
7The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth: because I give testimony of it, that the works thereof are evil.
7Long mah nangcae hnuma thai mak ai; a sak o ih kasae hmuennawk to ka thuih pongah, Kai ni ang hnukma o.
8Go you up to this festival day, but I go not up to this festival day: because my time is not accomplished.
8Nangcae loe to poihkung ah caeh oh: kai ih atue pha ai vop pongah, to poihkung ah ka caeh mak ai vop, tiah a naa.
9When he had said these things, he himself stayed in Galilee.
9Nihcae khaeah hae lok a thuih pae pacoengah, anih loe Kalili ah oh vop.
10But after his brethren were gone up, then he also went up to the feast, not openly, but, as it were, in secret.
10Toe angmah ih nawkamyanawk poihkung ah caeh o pacoengah loe, anih doeh poihkung ah caeh toeng, toe minawk panoeksak ai, tamquta ah ni a caeh.
11The Jews therefore sought him on the festival day, and said: Where is he?
11Judahnawk mah poihkung ah anih to pakrong o, Anih loe naa ah maw oh? tiah dueng o.
12And there was much murmuring among the multitude concerning him. For some said: He is a good man. And others said: No, but he seduceth the people.
12Amkhueng kaminawk loe anih kawng to angaek o: thoemto kaminawk mah, Anih loe hoih, tiah thuih o: kalah kaminawk mah loe, Hoih ai, anih loe kaminawk to aling, tiah thuih o.
13Yet no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.
13Toe Judahnawk zit o pongah, mi mah doeh anih kawng to kamtuengah thui o ai.
14Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
14Poih a um phak naah, Jesu loe tempul ah dawh tahang moe, kaminawk to patuk.
15And the Jews wondered, saying: How doth this man know letters, having never learned?
15Judahnawk loe dawnrai o, hae kami loe ca doeh amtuk ai to mah, kawbangmaw ca panoek halat? tiah thuih o.
16Jesus answered them, and said: My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
16Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kang patuk o ih lok loe Kai ih lok na ai, Kai patoehkung ih lok ni.
17If any man do the will of him; he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
17Anih koehhaih sak koeh kami mah loe, ka patuk ih lok hae Sithaw ih lok maw, to tih ai boeh loe kaimah kaa ah patuk ih lok, tito panoek thaihaih to tawn tih.
18He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and there is no injustice in him.
18Angmah koeh ah lokthui kami loe, a lensawkhaih hnuk han ih ni a thuih: toe Anih patoehkung lensawkhaih pakrong Kami loe, loktang ah oh, Anih loe alinghaih lok to thui ai.
19Did Moses not give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law?
19Mosi mah kaalok ang paek o na ai maw, tipongah maeto mah doeh na pazui o ai moe, tikhoe kai hum hanah nang pakrong o loe? tiah a naa.
20Why seek you to kill me? The multitude answered, and said: Thou hast a devil; who seeketh to kill thee?
20Kaminawk mah, Nang loe taqawk na tawnh: mi mah maw nang hum han pakrong? tiah a naa o.
21Jesus answered, and said to them: One work I have done; and you all wonder:
21Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Hmuen maeto ka sak naah, dawn na rai o boih.
22Therefore, Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and on the sabbath day you circumcise a man.
22To pongah Mosi mah tangzat hin aah hanah lok ang paek o (Mosi khae hoi angzo ai, ampanawk khae hoiah ni angzoh); Sabbath niah nawkta tangzat hin na aah o.
23If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me because I have healed the whole man on the sabbath day?
23Sabbath niah nawkta tangzat hin na aah o naah, Mosi ih kaalok aek kami ah na om o ai to mah, tikhoe Sabbath niah nganna kaminawk ngan ka tuisak naah, ka nuiah palung na phui o loe?
24Judge not according to the appearance, but judge just judgment.
24Anui phawn khet hoiah lokcaek o hmah, toenghaih hoiah lokcaek oh, tiah a naa.
25Some therefore of Jerusalem said: Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
25To naah Jerusalem ih thoemto kaminawk mah, Nihcae mah hum han pakrong o ih kami loe Anih hae na ai maw?
26And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers known for a truth, that this is the Christ?
26Khenah, Anih loe misahoihaih hoiah lok a thuih, nihcae mah Anih to kawbang doeh naa o ai. Hae Kami loe Kri tangtang boeh ni, tiah ukkungnawk mah panoek o maw?
27But we know this man, whence he is: but when the Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
27Kri angzoh naah, Anih loe naa hoiah maw angzoh, tito mi mah doeh panoek mak ai, toe hae kami loe naa ih kami maw, tito ka panoek o, tiah thuih o.
28Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching, and saying: You both know me, and you know whence I am: and I am not come of myself; but he that sent me, is true, whom you know not.
28Jesu mah tempul thungah patuk naah, Nangcae mah Kai nang panoek o: toe Kai loe kaimah koeh ah kang zo ai, Kai patoehkung loe loktang ah oh, Anih to na panoek o ai.
29I know him, because I am from him, and he hath sent me.
29Anih mah Ang patoeh moe, Anih khae hoi Kang zoh pongah, Anih to Ka panoek, tiah tha hoi a hangh.
30They sought therefore to apprehend him: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
30To pongah nihcae mah Jesu naehhaih loklam to pakrong o: toe Anih ih atue pha ai vop pongah, Anih to mi mah doeh naeh o ai.
31But of the people many believed in him, and said: When the Christ cometh, shall he do more miracles, than these which this man doth?
31Paroeai kaminawk mah Anih to tang o moe, Kri angzoh naah loe, hae Kami mah sak ih pong pop kue ah anih mah dawnrai hmuennawk to sah tih maw? tiah thuih o.
32The Pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning him: and the rulers and Pharisees sent ministers to apprehend him.
32Jesu kawng angaek kaminawk ih lok Farasinawk mah thaih o naah, Farasinawk hoi kalen koek qaima mah Anih to naeh hanah, tempul thungah toksah kaminawk to patoeh.
33Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me.
33Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Nangcae khaeah atue setta thung ni ka oh han boeh, to pacoengah loe Kai patoehkung khaeah Ka caeh han boeh.
34You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come.
34Kai nang pakrong o tih, toe nang hnu o mak ai: nangcae loe ka ohhaih ahmuen ah nang zo o thai mak ai, tiah thuih pae.
35The Jews therefore said among themselves: Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
35To naah Judahnawk mah, Aicae mah anih hnuk han ai ah, naa ah maw caeh han thuih? Maeto hoi maeto ampraek Gentelnawk khaeah caeh moe, Gentelnawk patuk han ih maw a thuih?
36What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, you cannot come?
36Kai nang pakrong o tih, toe nang hnu o mak ai: nangcae loe ka ohhaih ahmuen ah nang zo o thai mak ai, tiah thuih ih lok loe tih thuih koehhaih ih maw vai? tiah thuih o.
37And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.
37Kalen poihsakhaih hnukkhuem koek niah, Jesu angdoet moe, Mi kawbaktih doeh tui anghae kami loe, Kai khaeah angzo nasoe loe, nae nasoe.
38He that believeth in me, as the scripture saith, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
38Mi kawbaktih doeh Kai tang kami loe, Cabu mah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, anih ih takoh thung hoiah hinghaih tuipui to long tih, tiah tha hoi hang moe, lok a thuih.
39Now this he said of the Spirit which they should receive, who believed in him: for as yet the Spirit was not given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
39(Toe to lok loe, Anih tang kaminawk mah hnuk han ih Muithla, thuih koehhaih ih ni: Jesu loe lensawkhaih hoi pakoeh ah om ai vop pongah, Kacai Muithla to paek ai vop).
40Of that multitude therefore, when they had heard these words of his, some said: This is the prophet indeed.
40Paroeai kaminawk mah a lok to thaih o naah, Hae kami loe Tahmaa tangtang boeh ni, tiah thuih o.
41Others said: This is the Christ. But some said: Doth the Christ come out of Galilee?
41Kalah kaminawk mah loe, Hae kami loe Kri ni, tiah thuih o. Toe thoemto kaminawk mah loe, Kalili hoiah Kri angzo tih maw?
42Doth not the scripture say: That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem the town where David was?
42Cabu mah, Kri loe David ih atii hoiah angzo tih, David ohhaih Bethlehem vangpui hoiah ni angzo tih, tiah thuih ih lok oh na ai maw? tiah thuih o.
43So there arose a dissension among the people because of him.
43Anih pongah kaminawk ampraek o.
44And some of them would have apprehended him: but no man laid hands on him.
44Thoemto kaminawk mah anih to naeh han koeh o; toe mi mah doeh anih to naeh o ai.
45The ministers therefore came to the chief priests and the Pharisees. And they said to them: Why have you not brought him?
45Tempul ah toksah kaminawk loe Farasinawk hoi kalen koek qaima khaeah amlaem o let, to naah nihcae mah tikhoe Jesu nang zo o haih ai loe? tiah naa o.
46The ministers answered: Never did man speak like this man.
46Tempul ah toksah kaminawk mah, Hae kami baktiah lokthui kami mi doeh om vai ai vop, tiah pathim pae o.
47The Pharisees therefore answered them: Are you also seduced?
47Farasinawk mah nihcae khaeah, Nangcae doeh ang ling o boeh maw?
48Hath any one of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees?
48Ukkungnawk, to tih ai boeh loe Farasinawk thungah Anih mah thuih ih lok tang kami oh o maw?
49But this multitude, that knoweth not the law, are accursed.
49Kaalok panoek ai haeah amkhueng kaminawk loe tangoenghaih tongh o boeh, tiah a naa o.
50Nicodemus said to them, (he that came to him by night, who was one of them:)
50(Nihcae ih kami maeto ah kaom, khoving naah Jesu khaeah kacaeh), Nikodemu mah nihcae khaeah,
51Doth our law judge any man, unless it first hear him, and know what he doth?
51aicae ih daan pongah kami maeto mah sak ih hmuen to panoek ai, a thuih ih lok doeh thaih ai ah lokcaek thai maw? tiah a naa.
52They answered, and said to him: Art thou also a Galilean? Search the scriptures, and see, that out of Galilee a prophet riseth not.
52To naah nihcae mah anih khaeah, Nang doeh Kalili ih kami ah maw na oh? Pakrongah loe khenah: Kalili hoiah tahmaa tacawt vai ai vop, tiah a naa o.
53And every man returned to his own house.
53To kaminawk loe angmacae im ah caeh o boih.
