¹Shure kwezvinhu izvi kwakava nemutambo wevaJudha; Jesu ndokukwira kuJerusarema.

¹Pala kodia sas iek pachiv le Zhidovongi; ai O Jesus gelo ando Jerusalem.

²Zvino paJerusarema pedo nesuwo regwai pane dziva rinonzi Bhetisaidha nechiHebheru, rine maberere mashanu.

²Ai ando Jerusalem sas pasha wudar le bakriango, sas iek balta paieske panshe wudarensa, ai akharenas la Zhidovisko Bethesda.

³Mukati mawo makange muvete chaunga chikuru chevarwere, chemapofu, chezvirema, chevakawonyana, vakamirira kubvongodzwa kwemvura.

³Andre sas but naswale kai beshenas tele, korhe, bange, ai paralitikuri azhukerenas te mishtil o pai.

⁴Nekuti mutumwa waiburukira pane imwe nguva mudziva iro, achibvongodza mvura; koti unoitanga kupinda shure kwekubvongodzwa kwemvura, waiporeswa, pachirwere chipi zvacho chaainge akabatwa nacho.

⁴Ke ek angelo le Devlesko hulelas pe vriama ai mishtilas o pai; o pervo naswalo kai hulelas ando pai kana sas buntuime, sastiolas anda pesko naswalimos. Savestar godi sas.

⁵Zvino kwaivapo umwe munhu waiva nemakore makumi matatu nemasere ane chifo.

⁵Kotse sas ek manush naswalo de trenda ai oxto bersh.

⁶Jesu wakati amuona avete, achiziva kuti ikozvino wakange ava nenguva refu, akati kwaari: Unoda kuporeswa here?

⁶Kana O Jesus dikhlia les tele, ai zhanglia ke sas naswalo de dumult, phushlia les, "Kames te aves sasto?"

⁷Murwere akamupindura akati: Ishe, handina munhu unondikanda mudziva, kana mvura ichibvongodzwa; asi kana ini ndichiuya, umwe unoburukira mberi kwangu.

⁷O naswalo manush phendia leske, "Gazda, nai khonik katse te shudel ma ando pai kana si buntuime; ai kana avav, aver hulel tele mai anglal mandar.

⁸Jesu akati kwaari: Simuka, simudza nhovo yako, ufambe.

⁸Jesus phendia leske, "Wushti, le cho than ai phir." Ai strazo kodo manush sastilo, wo lia pesko than ai phirdia.

⁹Pakarepo munhu uyu akaporeswa, ndokusimudza nhovo yake akafamba. Zvino raiva sabata nemusi iwoyo.

⁹Numa sa kodia diela kerdili Savatone.

¹⁰Naizvozvo vaJudha vakati kune wakaporeswa: Isabata; hazvisi pamutemo kuti utakure nhovo.

¹⁰Le Zhiduvuria phende le manusheske kai sastilo, "Adies si Savato, ai nai slobodo tuke te angeres cho than."

¹¹Akavapindura akati: Uyo wandiporesa, ndiye wati kwandiri: Simudza nhovo yako, ufambe.

¹¹Wo phendia lenge, "O manush kai sastiardia ma, phendia mange, "Le cho than, ai phir."

¹²Saka vakamubvunza vachiti: Ndiani munhu uyo wati kwauri: Simudza nhovo yako ufambe?

¹²Antunchi phushle les, "Kon si o manush kai phendia tuke, te les cho than ai phires?"

¹³Zvino wakange aporeswa wakange asingazivi kuti ndiani; nekuti Jesu wakange asvova, zvakwaiva nechaunga panzvimbo iyoyo.

¹³Numa o manush kai sastilo chi zhanelas o anav kodolesko kai sastiardia les, ke O Jesus gelotar ke sas but narodos ande kodo than.

¹⁴Shure kwezvinhu izvi Jesu akamuwana mutembere, akati kwaari: Tarira waporeswa; usatadzazve, zvimwe chimwe chakanyanya kuipa chingaitika kwauri.

¹⁴Pala kodia, O Jesus arakhlia les ande tampla, ai phenel leske, Ashun! Sastilian anda cho naswalimos, na mai ker bezexa akana. Te na mai kerdiol tuke vari so mai nasul.

¹⁵Munhu akabva, akaudza vaJudha kuti ndiJesu wakamuporesa.

¹⁵Kodo manush gelotar, ai phendia le Zhidovonge ke O Jesus sastiardia les.

¹⁶Zvino nekuda kweizvozvo vaJudha vakashusha Jesu, ndokutsvaka kumuuraya, nekuti wakaita zvinhu izvi nesabata.

¹⁶Sa anda kodia le Zhiduvuria chinuisarde Jesus, ai rodenas te mudaren les, ke kerdia kodia o dies Savatone.

¹⁷Asi Jesu wakavapindura akati: Baba vangu vanoshanda kusvikira ikozvino, neni ndinoshanda.

¹⁷Numa O Jesus phendia lenge, "Murho Dat kerel buchi sorho dies, ai vi me kerav bichi."

¹⁸Saka naizvozvo vaJudha vakanyanya kutsvaka kumuuraya, nekuti wakange asingadariki sabata chete, asi wakatiwo Mwari ndiBaba vake vomene, achizvienzanisa naMwari.

¹⁸Pa kadala vorbi le Zhiduvuria rodenas mai but te mudaren les; na ferdi ke kerdia kodia Savatone, numa ke phendia ke O Del si lesko Dat, ai wo kerdilo iek fielo sar O Del.

¹⁹Zvino Jesu akapindura akati kwavari: Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwamuri: Mwanakomana haagoni kuita pachake, kunze kwezvaanoona Baba vachichiita; nekuti chero zvavanoita, izvo ndizvowo saizvozvo Mwanakomanawo zvaanoita.

¹⁹O Jesus phendia lenge, "Chachimasa, chachimasa, phenav tumenge, O Shav nashti kerel kanchi pestar, numa kerel so dikhel O Dat kerel; so godi kerel O Dat, vi O Shav kerel.

²⁰Nekuti Baba vanoda Mwanakomana, uye vanomuratidza zvinhu zvose zvavanoita ivo; vachamuratidzawo mabasa makuru anopfuura awa, kuti imwi mushamisike.

²⁰Ke O Dat drago le Shaves, ai sikavel leske so godi kerel. Ai O Dat sikavela leske mai bare buchi sar kadala. Chudina tume.

²¹Nekuti Baba sezvavanomutsa vakafa vachivararamisa, saizvozvo Mwanakomana unoraramisawo vaanoda.

²¹Ke sar O Dat wushtiavel le mulen, ai del le o traio, saikfielo O Shav del o traio kodolen kai mangel wo.

²²Nekuti naBaba havatongi munhu, asi vakapa Mwanakomana kutonga kose;

²²O Dat chi kerel kris pe khanikaste, numa dia e putiera le Shaves te krisinil.

²³kuti vose vakudze Mwanakomana sezvavanokudza Baba. Usingakudzi Mwanakomana, haakudzi Baba vakamutuma.

²³Kashte savorhe te luvudin le Shaves, sar luvudin le Dades. Kodo kai chi luvudil le Shaves, chi luvudil le Dades kai tradia les.

²⁴Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwamuri: Unonzwa shoko rangu, nekutenda kune wakandituma, une upenyu hwusingaperi; uye haasviki mukupiwa mhosva, asi wapfuura murufu akaenda muupenyu.

²⁴"Chachimasa, chachimasa, phenav tumenge, Kon godi kai ashunel murhi vorba, ai pachalpe ande kodo kai tradia ma, avela les o traio kai chi mai getolpe, ai chi avela pe leste kris; numa nakhlo anda merimos ai gelo ka traio kai chi mai getolpe.

²⁵Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwamuri: Awa rinouya, nazvino ravapo, apo vakafa vachanzwa inzwi reMwanakomana waMwari, uye vanonzwa vachararama.

²⁵"Chachimasa, chachimasa, phenav tumenge, O chaso avela, ai vunzhe avili, kana le mule ashunena o glaso le Shavesko le Devlesko; ai kodola kai ashunena les traiina.

²⁶Nekuti Baba sezvavane upenyu mavari pachavo, saizvozvo vakapa kuMwanakomanawo kuti ave neupenyu maari pachake;

²⁶Ke sar O Dat si les o traio ande peste, saikfielo wo kerdia peske Shaves te avel o traio ande peste.

²⁷uye vakamupa simba rekutongawo, nekuti Mwanakomana wemunhu.

²⁷Ai dia peske Shaves e putiera te kerel e kris, ke wo si O Shav le Manushesko.

²⁸Musashamisika nezvizvi; nekuti awa rinouya, apo vose vari mumakuva vachanzwa inzwi rake,

²⁸Na chudin tume ke o chaso avela, ke sa le mule kai si andel le greposhevuria ashunen lesko glaso.

²⁹Ai anklena avri andal greposhevuria, kodola kai kerde mishto anklena avri te len o traio kai chi mai getolpe. Ai kodola kai kerde o nasulimos, wushtena te nakhen pe kris te zhan ando iado.

³⁰Ini handigoni kuita chinhu pachangu; semanzwiro angu, ndinotonga; uye kutonga kwangu kwakarurama, nekuti handitsvaki chido changu, asi chido chaBaba vakandituma.

³⁰"Nashti kerav kanchi anda mande. Sar ashunav, kerav kris pala so phenel mange O Del, ai murhi kris si vorta, ke chi rodav te kerav so mangav anda mande, numa ferdi so mangel te kerav kodo kai tradia ma.

³¹Kana ndichipupura nezvangu, uchapupu hwangu hahusi hwechokwadi.

³¹Te mothava pa mande, so phenav nashti te avel chachimos.

³²Uripo umwe unopupura nezvangu; uye ndinoziva kuti uchapupu hwaanopupura nezvangu ndehwechokwadi

³²Numa aver si kai phenel pa mande, ai me zhanav le vorbi kai wo mothol pa mande si o chachimos.

³³Imwi makatumira kuna Johwani, uye akapupurira chokwadi.

³³"Tume tradian marturia ka Iovano o baptisto, ai wo phendia tumenge o chachimos.

³⁴Asi ini handigamuchiri uchapupu hunobva kumunhu, asi ndinoreva zvinhu izvi kuti imwi muponeswe.

³⁴Man, chi trobul le vorbi katar le manushen te phenel ke vorta sim, numa phenav kadia, saxke te sai aven skepime.

³⁵Iye wakange ari mwenje unopfuta neunovhenekera, nemwi makange muchishuva kufara kwazvo kwechinguvana muchiedza chake.

³⁶Asi ini ndine uchapupu ukuru kune hwaJohwani; nekuti mabasa Baba avakandipa kuti ndimapedze, awa mabasa ini andinoita, anopupura nezvangu kuti Baba vakandituma.

³⁶Numa, man si man ek mai baro chachimos pa mande sar o Iovano, me kerav e buchi kai murho Dat dia ma te kerav, kodola bucha kai kerav sikaven pa mande ke O Dat tradia ma.

³⁸Uye hamuna shoko rake rinogara mamuri, nekuti iye waakatuma, uyu imwi hamuna kumutenda.

³⁸Chi garaven leske vorbi ande tumende, ke chi pachan tume ande kodo kai tradia les.

³⁹Nzverai magwaro, nekuti imwi munofunga kuti mune upenyu hwusingaperi maari, uye ndiwo anopupura nezvangu.

³⁹"Sichon o ramomos ande Vorba le Devleski, ke tume gindin kai arakhena ande late o traio kai chi mai getolpe.

⁴⁰Asi hamudi kuuya kwandiri, kuti muve neupenyu.
