¹And at dawn he came again to the temple,

¹Ciisese wuxuu u baxay Buur Saytuun.

²and all the people were coming unto him, and having sat down, he was teaching them;

²Aroortii hore ayuu haddana macbudka yimid, dadkii oo dhammuna way u yimaadeen, oo intuu fadhiistay, ayuu wax baray.

³and the scribes and the Pharisees bring unto him a woman having been taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst,

³Culimmadii iyo Farrisiintii waxay u keeneen naag sino lagu qabtay. Markaasay dhexda joojiyeen,

⁴they say to him, `Teacher, this woman was taken in the very crime — committing adultery,

⁴oo waxay isagii ku yidhaahdeen, Macallimow, naagtan waxaa lagu qabtay sino.

⁵and in the law, Moses did command us that such be stoned; thou, therefore, what dost thou say?`

⁵Hadda Muuse wuxuu sharciga nagu amray in la dhagxiyo tan oo kale, adiguse maxaad ka leedahay iyada?

⁶and this they said, trying him, that they might have to accuse him. And Jesus, having stooped down, with the finger he was writing on the ground,

⁶Waxay waxaas u yidhaahdeen, iyagoo jirrabaya, si ay u helaan wax ay ku ashtakeeyaan. Laakiin Ciise waa foororsaday, oo farta ayuu dhulka wax ku qoray.

⁷and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, `The sinless of you — let him first cast the stone at her;`

⁷Laakiin goortay sii wadeen inay weyddiiyaan, wuu istaagay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Kii idinka mid ah oo aan dembi lahayn, isagu horta dhagax ha ku tuuro.

⁸and again having stooped down, he was writing on the ground,

⁸Mar kale ayuu foororsaday, oo haddana dhulka wax ku qoray.

⁹and they having heard, and by the conscience being convicted, were going forth one by one, having begun from the elders — unto the last; and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

⁹Iyagu markay waxaas maqleen, ayay iska daba baxeen midba mid, waayeelladii ka bilaabato ilaa kii u dambeeyey. Ciisena keligiis ayuu hadhay iyo naagtii dhexda joogtay.

¹⁰And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, `Woman, where are those — thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?`

¹⁰Ciise ayaa istaagay oo ku yidhi iyadii, Naag yahay, xaggee bay joogaan? Ninna miyaanu ku xukumin?

¹¹and she said, `No one, Sir;` and Jesus said to her, `Neither do I pass sentence on thee; be going on, and no more sin.`

¹¹Waxay ku tidhi, Ninna, Sayidow. Ciisena wuxuu ku yidhi, Anna ku xukumi maayo. Soco, oo hadda ka dib ha dembaabin.

¹²Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, `I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.`

¹²Haddaba Ciise ayaa mar kale la hadlay iyaga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay nuurka dunida. Kii i soo raacaa, gudcurka kuma socon doono, wuxuuse lahaan doonaa nuurka nolosha.

¹³The Pharisees, therefore, said to him, `Thou of thyself dost testify, thy testimony is not true;`

¹³Sidaa aawadeed Farrisiintu waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Marag baad isu furaysaa, maraggaagguna run ma aha.

¹⁴Jesus answered and said to them, `And if I testify of myself — my testimony is true, because I have known whence I came, and whither I go, and ye — ye have not known whence I come, or whither I go.

¹⁴Ciise baa u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi, In kastoo aan marag isu furo, maraggaygu waa run, waayo, waxaan garanayaa meeshaan ka imid iyo meeshaan tegayo, idinkuse garan maysaan meeshaan ka imid ama meeshaan tegayo.

¹⁵`Ye according to the flesh do judge; I do not judge any one,

¹⁵Idinku waxaad wax ka xukuntaan xagga jidhka, aniguse ninna ma xukumo.

¹⁶and even if I do judge my judgment is true, because I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me;

¹⁶Haddaan xukumo, xukunkaygu waa run, waayo, anigu keligay ma ihi, laakiin waa aniga iyo Aabbahaygii i soo diray.

¹⁷and also in your law it hath been written, that the testimony of two men are true;

¹⁷Sharcigiinna waxaa ku qoran, Laba nin maraggoodu waa run.

¹⁸I am [one] who is testifying of myself, and the Father who sent me doth testify of me.`

¹⁸Anigu waxaan ahay kii isu marag fura, oo Aabbahaygii i soo dirayna ayaa ii marag fura.

¹⁹They said, therefore, to him, `Where is thy father?` Jesus answered, `Ye have neither known me nor my Father: if me ye had known, my Father also ye had known.`

¹⁹Sidaas aawadeed waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Aabbahaa xaggee buu joogaa? Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, I garan maysaan, Aabbahayna garan maysaan. Haddaad i garanaysaan, Aabbahayna waad garan lahaydeen.

²⁰These sayings spake Jesus in the treasury, teaching in the temple, and no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come;

²⁰Hadalladaas ayuu kaga hadlay meeshii khasnaddu tiil intuu macbudka wax ku barayay. Oo ninna ma uu qaban isaga, waayo, saacaddiisii weli ma iman.

²¹therefore said Jesus again to them, `I go away, and ye will seek me, and in your sin ye shall die; whither I go away, ye are not able to come.`

²¹Sidaas aawadeed wuxuu haddana ku yidhi iyaga, Waan tegayaa, waadna i doondooni doontaan, waadna ku dhiman doontaan dembigiinna. Meeshaan tegayo iman kari maysaan.

²²The Jews, therefore, said, `Will he kill himself, because he saith, Whither I go away, ye are not able to come?`

²²Sidaas daraaddeed Yuhuuddu waxay yidhaahdeen, Miyuu isdilayaa? Waayo, isagaa yidhi, Meeshaan tegayo iman kari maysaan.

²³and he said to them, `Ye are from beneath, I am from above; ye are of this world, I am not of this world;

²³Wuxuu ku yidhi iyaga, Idinku waxaad tihiin kuwa hoosta, aniguse waxaan ka mid ahay kuwa sare. Idinku waxaad tihiin kuwa dunidan, aniguse mid kama ihi kuwa dunidan.

²⁴I said, therefore, to you, that ye shall die in your sins, for if ye may not believe that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.`

²⁴Haddaba waxaan idinku idhi, Dembiyadiinna waad ku dhiman doontaan, waayo, haddaydnan rumaysan inaan isagii ahay, dembiyadiinna ayaad ku dhiman doontaan.

²⁵They said, therefore, to him, `Thou — who art thou?` and Jesus said to them, `Even what I did speak of to you at the beginning;

²⁵Haddaba waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Yaad tahay? Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Kii aan tan iyo bilowgii idinkala hadlay.

²⁶many things I have to speak concerning you and to judge, but He who sent me is true, and I — what things I heard from Him — these I say to the world.`

²⁶Waxaan hayaa wax badan oo aan idinkala hadlo oo aan idinku xukumo, laakiin kii i soo diray waa run, aniguna waxaan ka maqlay isaga, waxaas ayaan dunida kula hadlayaa.

²⁷They knew not that of the Father he spake to them;

²⁷Ma ayna garan inuu iyaga kala hadlay Aabbaha.

²⁸Jesus, therefore, said to them, `When ye may lift up the Son of Man then ye will know that I am [he]; and of myself I do nothing, but according as my Father did teach me, these things I speak;

²⁸Sidaas aawadeed Ciise ayaa ku yidhi, Markaad Wiilka Aadanaha kor u qaaddaan, markaasaad garan doontaan inaan isagii ahay iyo inaanan keligay waxba samaynaynin, laakiin sida Aabbuhu ii baray ayaan waxyaalahaas ugu hadlaa.

²⁹and He who sent me is with me; the Father did not leave me alone, because I, the things pleasing to Him, do always.`

²⁹Oo kii i soo diray ayaa ila jira, keligay igama uu tegin, waayo, mar kasta waxaan sameeyaa waxa ka farxiya isaga.

³⁰As he is speaking these things, many believed in him;

³⁰Intuu waxyaalahaas ku hadlayay, dad badan ayaa rumaystay isaga.

³¹Jesus, therefore, said unto the Jews who believed in him, `If ye may remain in my word, truly my disciples ye are, and ye shall know the truth,

³¹Sidaas aawadeed Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi Yuhuuddii isaga rumaysatay, Haddaad ereygayga ku sii socotaan, runtii waxaad tihiin xertayda.

³²and the truth shall make you free.`

³²Oo waxaad garan doontaan runta; runtiina waa idin xorayn doontaa.

³³They answered him, `Seed of Abraham we are; and to no one have we been servants at any time; how dost thou say — Ye shall become free?`

³³Waxay ugu jawaabeen, Farcankii Ibraahim baannu nahay, oo weligayo addoommo ninna uma ahayn. Maxaad u leedahay, Waa laydin xorayn doonaa?

³⁴Jesus answered them, `Verily, verily, I say to you — Every one who is committing sin, is a servant of the sin,

³⁴Ciise ayaa ugu jawaabay, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Kii kasta oo dembi sameeyaa waa addoonkii dembiga.

³⁵and the servant doth not remain in the house — to the age, the son doth remain — to the age;

³⁵Oo addoonkuna guriga kuma sii jiro, wiilkuse waa ku sii jiraa weligiis.

³⁶if then the son may make you free, in reality ye shall be free.

³⁶Sidaas aawadeed haddii Wiilku idin xoreeyo, runtii xor baad ahaan doontaan.

³⁷`I have known that ye are seed of Abraham, but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you;

³⁷Waan garanayaa inaad farcankii Ibraahim tihiin, laakiin waxaad doonaysaan inaad i dishaan, waayo, hadalkaygu meel idinkuma haysto.

³⁸I — that which I have seen with my Father do speak, and ye, therefore, that which ye have seen with your father — ye do.`

³⁸Waxaan xaggii Aabbahay ku soo arkay ayaan ka hadlaa, idinkuna waxaad samaysaan wixii aydin aabbihiin ka maqasheen.

³⁹They answered and said to him, `Our father is Abraham;` Jesus saith to them, `If children of Abraham ye were, the works of Abraham ye were doing;

³⁹Markaasay u jawaabeen oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Aabbahayo waa Ibraahim. Ciise ayaa ku yidhi, Haddaad carruurtii Ibraahim tihiin, shuqullada Ibraahim waad samayn lahaydeen.

⁴⁰and now, ye seek to kill me — a man who hath spoken to you the truth I heard from God; this Abraham did not;

⁴⁰Laakiin hadda waxaad doonaysaan inaad i dishaan, anoo ah ninkii idiin sheegay runtii aan xaggii Ilaah ka maqlay. Waxaas Ibraahim ma uu samayn jirin.

⁴¹ye do the works of your father.` They said, therefore, to him, `We of whoredom have not been born; one Father we have — God;`

⁴¹Waxaad samaysaan shuqullada aabbihiin. Markaasay ku yidhaahdeen, Annagu kuma aannu dhalan sino. Aabbe keliya ayaannu leennahay oo waa Ilaah.

⁴²Jesus then said to them, `If God were your father, ye were loving me, for I came forth from God, and am come; for neither have I come of myself, but He sent me;

⁴²Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddii Ilaah aabbihiin yahay, waad i jeclaan lahaydeen, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah baan ka soo baxay oo ka imid, aniguna iskama iman, ee isagaa i soo diray.

⁴³wherefore do ye not know my speech? because ye are not able to hear my word.

⁴³Maxaad hadalkayga u garan weydeen? Waayo, hadalkayga ma maqli karaysaane.

⁴⁴`Ye are of a father — the devil, and the desires of your father ye will to do; he was a man-slayer from the beginning, and in the truth he hath not stood, because there is no truth in him; when one may speak the falsehood, of his own he speaketh, because he is a liar — also his father.

⁴⁴Idinku waxaad tihiin kuwo aabbahood Ibliiska yahay, oo waxaad doonaysaan inaad samaysaan damacyada aabbihiin. Tan iyo bilowgii wuxuu ahaa mid dhiig qaba, runtana kuma uu joogsan, waayo, runtu kuma jirto isaga. Markuu been ku hadlo, tiisuu ku hadlaa, waayo, waa beenaaleh, waana beenta aabbaheed.

⁴⁵`And because I say the truth, ye do not believe me.

⁴⁵Laakiin runta aan ku hadlo aawadeed waad i rumaysan weydeen.

⁴⁶Who of you doth convict me of sin? and if I speak truth, wherefore do ye not believe me?

⁴⁶Midkiinnee baa dembi igu caddaynaya? Haddaan runta sheego, maxaad ii rumaysan weydaan?

⁴⁷he who is of God, the sayings of God he doth hear; because of this ye do not hear, because of God ye are not.`

⁴⁷Kii Ilaah kuwiisa ka mid ah, erayada Ilaah ayuu maqlaa, sidaas daraaddeed idinku maqli maysaan, waayo, Ilaah kuwiisii ma ihidin.

⁴⁸The Jews, therefore, answered and said to him, `Do we not say well, that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?`

⁴⁸Yuhuuddu waxay ugu jawaabeen, Miyaannan run ku hadlin markaannu nidhi, Reer Samaariya baad tahay, oo jinni baad qabtaa?

⁴⁹Jesus answered, `I have not a demon, but I honour my Father, and ye dishonour me;

⁴⁹Ciise wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Jinni ma qabo, laakiin Aabbahay baan murweeyaa, idinkuna waad i murwad jebisaan.

⁵⁰and I do not seek my own glory; there is who is seeking and is judging;

⁵⁰Anigu ammaantayda ma doono, waxaase jira mid doona oo xukuma.

⁵¹verily, verily, I say to you, If any one may keep my word, death he may not see — to the age.`

⁵¹Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Haddii qof uun ereygayga xajiyo, weligiis dhimasho ma arki doono.

⁵²The Jews, therefore, said to him, `Now we have known that thou hast a demon; Abraham did die, and the prophets, and thou dost say, If any one may keep my word, he shall not taste of death — to the age!

⁵²Yuhuuddu waxay ku yidhaahdeen isaga, Imminka waxaannu garanaynaa inaad jinni qabto. Ibraahim waa dhintay iyo nebiyadiiba, adiguna waxaad leedahay, Haddii qof uun hadalkayga xajiyo, weligiis dhimasho ma dhadhamin doono.

⁵³Art thou greater than our father Abraham, who died? and the prophets died; whom dost thou make thyself?`

⁵³Miyaad ka sii weyn tahay aabbaheen Ibraahim oo dhintay, iyo nebiyadii dhintay? Yaad iska dhigaysaa?

⁵⁴Jesus answered, `If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who is glorifying me, of whom ye say that He is your God;

⁵⁴Ciise wuxuu ugu jawaabay, Haddaan is-ammaano, ammaantaydu waxba ma aha. Waa Aabbahay kan i ammaanaa, kaad ku sheegtaan Ilaahiinna.

⁵⁵and ye have not known Him, and I have known Him, and if I say that I have not known Him, I shall be like you — speaking falsely; but I have known Him, and His word I keep;

⁵⁵Mana aydnaan garan isaga, laakiinse anigu waa garanayaa, oo haddaan idhaahdo, Garan maayo isaga, sidiinna oo kalaan beenaaleh noqonayaa, laakiinse waan aqaan isaga, ereygiisana waan xajiyaa.

⁵⁶Abraham, your father, was glad that he might see my day; and he saw, and did rejoice.`

⁵⁶Aabbihiin Ibraahim waa ku reyreeyey inuu maalintayda arko, wuuna arkay oo ku farxay.

⁵⁷The Jews, therefore, said unto him, `Thou art not yet fifty years old, and Abraham hast thou seen?`

⁵⁷Sidaa aawadeed Yuhuuddii waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Weli konton sannadood ma aadan gaadhin, oo Ibraahim ma aragtay?

⁵⁸Jesus said to them, `Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham`s coming — I am;`

⁵⁸Ciise wuxuu ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Intaan Ibraahim jirin anaa ah.Markaasay dhagaxyo u gurteen inay ku tuuraan, laakiin Ciise waa dhuuntay, wuuna ka baxay macbudka.

⁵⁹they took up, therefore, stones that they may cast at him, but Jesus hid himself, and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

⁵⁹Markaasay dhagaxyo u gurteen inay ku tuuraan, laakiin Ciise waa dhuuntay, wuuna ka baxay macbudka.
