1And Jesus went unto mount Olivet.
1Jesu loe Olive mae ah caeh.
2And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him, and sitting down he taught them.
2Anih loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah tempul ah caeh let, to naah kaminawk boih anih khaeah angzoh o; anih loe anghnut moe, nihcae to patuk.
3And the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman taken in adultery: and they set her in the midst,
3To naah ca tarik kaminawk hoi Farasinawk mah sava laep ah zaehaih sah nongpata maeto anih khaeah hoih o; kaminawk salakah nongpata to angdoet o sak pacoengah,
4And said to him: Master, this woman was even now taken in adultery.
4nihcae mah Jesu khaeah, Patukkung, zaehaih sak li naah hae nongpata hae ka naeh o.
5Now Moses in the law commanded us to stone such a one. But what sayest thou?
5Mosi ih kaalok baktiah, hae baktih nongpata loe thlung hoi vah maat han oh: toe nangmah loe kawbangmaw na poek? tiah a naa o.
6And this they said tempting him, that they might accuse him. But Jesus bowing himself down, wrote with his finger on the ground.
6Anih to zae net thai hanah, nihcae mah Anih to tanoek o. Toe Jesu loe lu takhum moe, nihcae ih lok thaih ai baktiah banpazung hoiah long ah ca tarik.
7When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
7Nihcae mah boeng ai ah Anih to lokdueng o pongah, Anih loe angthawk tahang moe, nihcae khaeah, Nangcae thung ih zaehaih tawn ai kami mah, nongpata to thlung hoi va o hmaloe nasoe, tiah a naa.
8And again stooping down, he wrote on the ground.
8Anih loe takhum moe, long ah ca tarik let.
9But they hearing this, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest. And Jesus alone remained, and the woman standing in the midst.
9Nihcae mah to lok to thaih o naah, angmacae panoekhaih palung mah angmacae zaehaih to amtuengsak pongah, kacoeh hoi kamtong boeng khoek to, maeto pacoeng maeto tacawt o boih: Jesu hoi toah nawnto angdoe nongpata khue oh hoi sut.
10Then Jesus lifting up himself, said to her: Woman, where are they that accused thee? Hath no man condemned thee?
10Jesu angthawk naah, nongpata khue ai ah loe, mi doeh hnu ai boeh. Anih mah nongpata khaeah, Nongpata, Nang zaehaih net kaminawk loe naa ah maw caeh o boih boeh? Mi mah doeh lok na caek o ai maw? tiah a naa.
11Who said: No man, Lord. And Jesus said: Neither will I condemn thee. Go, and now sin no more.
11Nongpata mah, Angraeng, Mi mah doeh lok na caek o ai, tiah naa. Jesu mah nongpata khaeah, Kai mah doeh lok kang caek ai: caeh ah loe zaehaih sah let hmah lai ah, tiah a naa.
12Again therefore, Jesus spoke to them, saying: I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
12Jesu mah nihcae khaeah lokthuih let, Kai loe long aanghaih ah ka oh: Ka hnukah bang kami loe, vinghaih thungah caeh mak ai, hinghaih to hnu tih, tiah a naa.
13The Pharisees therefore said to him: Thou givest testimony of thyself: thy testimony is not true.
13Farasinawk mah anih khaeah, Nang loe nangmah hoi nangmah hnukung ah na oh; hnukung ah na ohhaih to amsoem ai, tiah a naa o.
14Jesus answered, and said to them: Although I give testimony of myself, my testimony is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go: but you know not whence I come, or whither I go.
14Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kaimah hoi kaimah hnukung ah oh cadoeh, Kai loe naa hoiah maw angzoh moe, naa ah maw ka caeh han, tito ka panoek pongah, hnukung ah ka ohhaih loe amsoem: toe nangcae loe Kai naa hoiah maw angzoh moe, naa ah maw ka caeh han, tito na panoek o ai.
15You judge according to the flesh: I judge not any man.
15Nangcae loe taksa baktiah lok na caek o; toe Kai loe mi doeh lok ka caek vai ai.
16And if I do judge, my judgment is true: because I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.
16Kai loe kaimah bueng ah ka om ai, Kai patoehkung Pa hoi nawnto ka oh pongah, lok ka caek aep to mah, ka lokcaekhaih loe amsoem.
17And in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true.
17Kami hnetto mah thuih ih lok loe amsoem, tiah nangmacae ih daan thungah tarik ih oh.
18I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me.
18Kai loe kaimah hoi kaimah hnukung ah Ka oh, Kai patoehkung Pa doeh Kai hnukung ah oh.
19They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father: if you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also.
19To naah nihcae mah anih khaeah, Nam pa loe naa ah maw oh? tiah dueng o. Jesu mah, Kai doeh Kam Pa doeh na panoek o ai: Kai nang panoek o soe nahaeloe, kam Pa doeh na panoek o tih, tiah a naa.
20These words Jesus spoke in the treasury, teaching in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
20Hae lok loe Jesu mah tempul thung ih phoisa bawm suekhaih taengah patuk nathuem ah thuih pae ih lok ah oh: angmah ih atue pha ai vop pongah, mi mah doeh anih to naeh o ai.
21Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go, and you shall seek me, and you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come.
21Jesu mah nihcae khaeah lokthuih pae let, Kai loe ka caeh ving han boeh, kai nang pakrong o tih, toe nangmacae zaehaih pongah na dueh o tih: ka caehhaih ahmuen ah nang zo o thai mak ai, tiah a naa.
22The Jews therefore said: Will he kill himself, because he said: Whither I go, you cannot come?
22Judahnawk mah, Ka caehhaih ahmuen ah nang zo o thai mak ai, tiah a thuih pongah, angmah hoi angmah anghum han thuih kalang mue, tiah poek o.
23And he said to them: You are from beneath, I am from above. You are of this world, I am not of this world.
23Toe anih mah nihcae khaeah, Nangcae loe atlim bang ih kami ah na oh o; kai loe ranui bang ih kami ah ni ka oh: nangcae loe hae long kami ah na oh o; kai loe hae long kami na ai ni.
24Therefore I said to you, that you shall die in your sins. For if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sin.
24To pongah kang thuih o, Na zae o haih pongah na dueh o tih: Kai loe Anih to boeh ni, tiah na tang o ai nahaeloe, nangmacae zaehaih pongah na dueh o tih, tiah a naa.
25They said therefore to him: Who art thou? Jesus said to them: The beginning, who also speak unto you.
25Nihcae mah anih khaeah, Nang loe mi aa? tiah dueng o. Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kai loe tangsuek nathuem hoi kang thuih o khing ih kami ah ka oh.
26Many things I have to speak and to judge of you. But he that sent me, is true: and the things I have heard of him, these same I speak in the world.
26Lok thuih moe, nangcae lokcaek hanah ka tawnh mangh: toe kai patoehkung loe loktang ah oh; anih khae hoi ka thaih ih hmuennawk ni long khaeah ka thuih, tiah a naa.
27And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
27Jesu mah thuih ih Ampa kawng to nihcae mah thai pae o kop ai.
28Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
28Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kami Capa na takhing o naah ni, Kai loe Anih to boeh ni, kaimah bueng ah tidoeh Ka sah ai; kam Pa mah ang patuk ih loknawk ni ka thuih, tiah na panoek o vop tih.
29And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
29Kai patoehkung loe Kai hoi nawnto oh: Pa mah kaimah bueng na caehtaak sut ai; a koeh ih hmuennawk ni ka sak pae toepsoep, tiah a naa.
30When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
30Anih mah hae loknawk thuih naah, paroeai kaminawk mah anih to tang o.
31Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
31Jesu mah Anih tanghaih tawn Judahnawk khaeah, Ka lok ah na oh o poe nahaeloe, ka hnukbang kami tangtang ah ni na oh o.
32And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
32Loktang to na panoek o ueloe, loktang mah na loih o sak tih, tiah a naa.
33They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
33Nihcae mah anih khaeah, Kaicae loe Abraham ih atii ah ka oh o, minawk ih tamna ah ka om o vai ai: kawbangmaw na loih o tih, tiah na thuih? tiah pathim pae o.
34Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
34Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Loktang to, loktang ah, Kang thuih o, mi kawbaktih doeh zaehaih sah kami loe zaehaih tamna ah oh.
35Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.
35Tamna loe im ah om poe ai: toe Capa loe oh poe.
36If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
36To pongah Capa mah na loih o sak nahaeloe, na loih o tangtang tih.
37I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
37Abraham ih atii ah na oh o, tito ka panoek; toe nangcae thungah ka lok ohhaih ahmuen om ai pongah, kai hum hanah nang pakrong o.
38I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.
38Kai loe Kam Pa khae hoi ka hnuk ih hmuen to ni ka thuih: nangcae loe nam pa khae hoi na hnuk o ih hmuen to na sak o, tiah a naa.
39They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.
39Nihcae mah anih khaeah, Abraham loe kaicae ih ampa ni, tiah pathim pae o. Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Abraham ih caa ah na oh o nahaeloe, Abraham mah sak ih toknawk to na sak o han oh bae.
40But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.
40Toe Sithaw khae hoi ka thaih ih, loktang lok kang thuih o pongah, vaihi Kai hum hanah nang pakrong o, Abraham loe to baktih hmuen to sah ai.
41You do the works of your father. They said therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father, even God.
41Nangcae loe nam panawk mah sak o ih hmuennawk ni na sak o, tiah a naa. Nihcae mah Anih khaeah, Kaicae loe payang caa na ai ni; kaicae loe Ampa, Sithaw maeto ni ka tawnh o, tiah a naa o.
42Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I came not of myself, but he sent me:
42Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Kai loe Sithaw khae hoi tacawt kami ah ka oh, anih khae hoiah ni kang zoh; kai mah koeh ah kang zo ai, Sithaw loe nangcae Ampa ah om nahaeloe, anih mah kai ang patoeh pongah, kai hae nang palung o tih.
43Why do you not know my speech? Because you cannot hear my word.
43Tipongah ka thuih ih lok na thaih o kop ai loe? Ka lok na tahngai o kop ai pongah ni, kalok hae na thaih o kop ai.
44You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and he stood not in the truth; because truth is not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father thereof.
44Nangcae loe nam pa taqawk ih caa ah na oh o, to pongah nam pa koehhaih sak hanah na koeh o. Anih loe tangsuek nathuem hoi boeh ni kami humkung ah oh, anih thungah loktang om ai pongah, anih loe loktang ah angdoe ai. Anih mah amsawnlok thuih naah, angmah koeh baktiah ni a thuih: anih loe lok amlai kami ah oh moe, lok amlai kaminawk ih ampa ah oh.
45But if I say the truth, you believe me not.
45Loktang lok ka thuih pongah, Kai nang tang o ai.
46Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me?
46Nangcae thungah kai zaehaih net thaih na oh o maw? Loktang bae kang thuih o, tipongah Kai nang tang o ai loe?
47He that is of God, heareth the words of God. Therefore you hear them not, because you are not of God.
47Sithaw kami loe, Sithaw ih loknawk to tahngaih: Sithaw kami ah na om o ai pongah ni, a lok na tahngai o ai, tiah a naa.
48The Jews therefore answered, and said to him: Do not we say well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?
48Judahnawk mah anih khaeah, Taqawk na tawnh, Samaritan kami maeto ah na oh, tiah kang naa o ih lok loe amsoem, tiah pathim pae o.
49Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father, and you have dishonoured me.
49Jesu mah, Taqawk ka tawn ai; kam Pa to ni ka pakoeh, toe nangcae mah loe kasae nang thuih o.
50But I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
50Kaimah hoi kaimah amkoehhaih ka pakrong ai: Ka lensawkhaih pakrong moe, lokcaek kami Maeto oh.
51Amen, amen I say to you: If any man keep my word, he shall not see death for ever.
51Loktang to, loktang ah, Kang thuih o, Ka thuih ih lok pakuem kami loe, natuek naah doeh dueh mak ai, tiah a naa.
52The Jews therefore said: Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest: If any man keep my word, he shall not taste death for ever.
52Judahnawk mah anih khaeah, Taqawk na tawnh, tiah vaihi kang panoek o boeh. Abraham loe duek boeh moe, Tahmaanawk doeh duek o boeh; toe nang mah loe Ka lok pakuem kami loe, natuek naah doeh duekhaih hnu mak ai, tiah na thuih.
53Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead. Whom dost thou make thyself?
53Nang loe kaicae ampa Abraham pongah na len kue maw? Anih loe duek boeh, tahmaanawk doeh duek o boeh: nangmah hoi nangmah to kawbangmaw na poek? tiah a naa o.
54Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God.
54Jesu mah, Kaimah hoi kaimah amkoeh nahaeloe, to tiah kam koehhaih to tiah doeh angcoeng mak ai: Anih loe kaicae ih Sithaw ni, tiah na thuih o ih, Kam Pa mah ni Kai hae ang pakoeh:
55And you have not known him, but I know him. And if I shall say that I know him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know him, and do keep his word.
55Anih to na panoek o ai, toe kaimah loe Anih to panoek: Anih to Ka panoek ai, tiah Ka thuih nahaeloe, Kai doeh nangcae baktiah amsawnlok thui kami ah ni ka om tih: toe anih to ka panoek moe, a thuih ih lok to ka pakuem.
56Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see my day: he saw it, and was glad.
56Nangcae ampa Abraham loe Kai ih ani to hnuk hanah koeh parai: anih mah hnuk naah, paroeai anghoe, tiah pathim pae.
57The Jews therefore said to him: Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
57Judahnawk mah anih khaeah, Nang loe saning quipangato mataeng doeh akoep ai vop, Abraham to na hnuk maw? tiah a naa o.
58Jesus said to them: Amen, amen I say to you, before Abraham was made, I am.
58Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Loktang to, loktang ah, Kang thuih o, Abraham om ai naah, Ka oh boeh, tiah a naa.
59They took up stones therefore to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.
59To naah nihcae mah Anih vah hanah thlung akhui o: toe Jesu mah anghawk taak ving, paroeai kaminawk salakah a caeh moe, tempul thung hoiah tacawt ving.
