1After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
1Abele gaire lu iobaru, Iesu Galilaiaem ekas: E nole la kak Iudaiaem ekas, abelelam Iudaia le giz deraimerare abi ipitare.
2Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.
2Maike Iudaia le giz ra uetpur, abele nerazi meta uetpur.
3His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.
3Abara keimer giz abi detautare, kega, Ge dekaer, a Iudaiaem bakeam, ueakai mara kaimeg giz dasmerare gaire lu ma ikeli.
4For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”
4Ege nole le dorge mudige ikeli, ese E lagelag E natomertare. Ese mama ikeli abele gaire lu, mama natomertare gesepem.
5For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.
5Ege abara keimer giz nole abi oatur kak.
6Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.
6Iesu uiabim detautare, kega, Kara kerker ge nole tabarki; a peirdi uaba kerker.
7The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.
7Geseb nole umer kak uabi derarti; epe kari derarti, abelelam kaka uiaba adud dorge giz natomertare.
8You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”
8Uaba bakeauare abele uetpurem: peirdi kaka nole bakeam abele uetpur; abelelam kara kerker nole tabarki.
9Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.
9E emetu detager abele mer uiabim, E Galilaiem emri.
10But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
10Abara keimer giz emetu uetpurem bakeamuda, E ko bakeam, epe E gumik ekas, nole paret kak ekas.
11The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, “Where is he?”
11Iudaia le giz, uetpur ge, abi deraimerare, a detautare, kega, E nade?
12There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, “He is a good man.” Others said, “Not so, but he leads the multitude astray.”
12Gaire le lakub abim basardare: uader detaut, kega, E debele; a uader, kega, Nolea, E gaire le didmirki.
13Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
13Epe nole le abi paret kak detautare, uiaba Iudaia le giz geum.
14But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
14Uetpur ge eipu, Iesu zogo metaem bakeamuda, a okadaraskeda.
15The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”
15Iudaia le giz damreda, a detaut, kega, Nalu le abele jauali umele, a nole ereuer kak?
16Jesus therefore answered them, “My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.
16Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Nole karielam kara ereuere, epe abielam, kari namarida.
17If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God or if I am speaking from myself.
17Ese nerute le lagelag abara lag ikeli, E ereuer akmer, nako Adelam, nako kaka detaut karbabu.
18He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
18Abele le tababu detaut, E deraimer tababu baospili: abele le deraimer ko abi despereda, abi emarida, E dali ageakar, nole barbar tonar abi dog.
19Didn’t Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?”
19Nako, Mose nole gelar uabi ikuar, a nole nerute uabielam gelar irmili? Epe nako uaba deraimer kari uanapitare?
20The multitude answered, “You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?”
20Gaire le lakub abim detaut, kega, Demoni mari dog: niti de mari naraimeli mari uanapit?
21Jesus answered them, “I did one work and you all marvel because of it.
21Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Kaka emetu nerute dorge ikeli, a uaba uridili damreda.
22Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.
22Mose peritom uabi ikuar, (epe nole Mosealam, mamoro kerem lelam;) uaba le peritom sabath ge.
23If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath?
23Ese nerute le peritom erpei sabath ge, ueakai nole Mose ra gelar datupida; nako uaba kari urker abelelam kaka le idigiri sabath ge?
24Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
24Nole erkepse irmi irmili pone, mamoro erkepse irmi irmili barkak itmer.
25Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, “Isn’t this he whom they seek to kill?
25Eko uader le Ierusalemlam detaut, kega, Nako E dali uiaba deraimerare ko ipitare?
26Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?
26Dasmer, E paret kak mer detautili, a uiaba nole nerute mer abi detaut, Nako, gaire kole umele, kega, Keriso kar idali?
27However, we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
27Epe meriba umele E nagelam; a Keriso tabarki, nole le umele E nagelam.
28Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don’t know.
28Iesu ereretiki zogo meta ge, E okadeskeda a detager, kega, Uaba kari umele, a uaba umele kaka nagelam; kaka nole karbabu tabarki, E ageakar, kari namarida, a uaba abi umer kak.
29I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me.”
29Kaka abi umele; abelelam kaka abielam, E kari namarida.
30They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
30Uiaba deraimerare abi terpeirare: a nole le abim tag itirimuda, abelelam abara kerker nole tabarki.
31But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, “When the Christ comes, he won’t do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?”
31Gaire lekublam abi oituli; uiaba detager, kega, Ese Keriso tabarki, nako, E ko ikeli gaire atamelam tumem E ikeli?
32The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
32Gaire Faresaio asoli uiaba lekub abim basardare abele gaire lu; gaire zogo kemle a gaire Faresaio namarida gaire asesered le abi terpeirare.
33Then Jesus said, “I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
33Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Teupai kaka uabi dog emri, kerker maike kaka abim bakeamulu, kari namarida.
34You will seek me and won’t find me. You can’t come where I am.”
34Uaba ko kari naraimereda, a nole kari ardar kak: abele uteb kaka bakeamulu, uabu umer kak ko bakeam.
35The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Where will this man go that we won’t find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?
35Gaire Iudaia le giz mer atager, kega, Nagedim E bakeam, a meriba nole abi ardar kak? nako, E ko bakeam uiabim gaire le bamarida Helene dog, a gaire Helene okadeskeda?
36What is this word that he said, ‘You will seek me, and won’t find me;’ and ‘Where I am, you can’t come’ ?”
36Nalu abele mer, E detagereda, kega, Uaba kari naraimereda, a nole kari ardar kak: abele uteb kaka bakeamulu, uaba umer kak ko bakeam?
37Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
37Keubu gerger, abele au gerger uetpur ge, Iesu tekueilu, a ereretikri, a detager, kega, Ese nerute le niap, karim tabakeam ko aree.
38He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water.”
38Abele le karim oituli, mokakalam zogo jauali detager, kega, Edede ni ko babusdarie abi nerkeplam.
39But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
39E detager abele Lamar Zogolam, uiaba gaire le abi oituli ko erpei abele. Lamar Zogo nole tabarki; abelelam Iesu nole eded akaida.
40Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is truly the prophet.”
40Uader lekublam asoli abele mer, uiaba detager, kega, Ageakar, E perofeta pedali.
41Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “What, does the Christ come out of Galilee?
41Uader datager, kega, E Keriso. A uader detager, kega, Nako, Keriso osmeda Galilaialam?
42Hasn’t the Scripture said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”
42Nako, nole zogo jauali detager, kega, Keriso tabarki Dauidalam, a Bethelemalam, abele Dauida ra uteb?
43So a division arose in the multitude because of him.
43Abielam gaire le lakub barsardare.
44Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.
44Uader uiaba lagelag abi terpei, a nole le abim tag itirimuda.
45The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”
45Gaire asesered le akomeda gaire zogo kemle pako Faresaio giz; uiaba uiabim detaut, kega, Nalugelam uaba nole abi tegaret?
46The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”
46Gaire asesered le detager, kega, Nole le mer egali mokakalam.
47The Pharisees therefore answered them, “You aren’t also led astray, are you?
47Gaire Faresaio uiabim detaut, kega, Nako emetu uabi didmirki?
48Have any of the rulers or any of the Pharisees believed in him?
48Nako, nerute le abim oituli gaire opolelam, a gaire Faresaiolam?
49But this multitude that doesn’t know the law is cursed.”
49Abele nosik le gelar umer kak, ko eumida.
50Nicodemus (he who came to him by night, being one of them) said to them,
50Nikodemo uiabim detaut, (E Iesuim bakeam ki ge, E nerute uiabielam),
51“Does our law judge a man unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?”
51Nako, meriba gelar ra tonar ko kekiam bodomalam ikuar, a nole kekiam le itmer abele lu E ikeli?
52They answered him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee.”
52Uiaba detaut, a abi detager, kega, Nako ma Galilaialam? Deraimer, a dasmer: nole perofeta dikedida Galilaialam.
53Everyone went to his own house,
53Uiaba uridili tabara uteb bamarida.
