Yohana 1
1
Ekigambo ky'oburora
1Orwa mbere na mbere Kigambo akashangwaho. Kigambo ogwo hakaba ajwangaine na Ruhanga, mara Kigambo hakaba ali Ruhanga. 2Orwa mbere na mbere akashangwa ali hamoi na Ruhanga. 3Ebintu byona bikatondwa omuli wenene; kandi omu byakatonzirwe byona taliho kintu na kimoi ekitatonzirwe omuli wenene. 4Omuli Kigambo ogwo hakaba alimu oburora, mara oburora obwo nibwo bwabaire mushana gw'abantu. 5Omushana ogwo gwaka omu mwilima, mara omwilima tigukarazaga mushana ogwo.
6Hakaba haliho omuntu atumirwe Ruhanga, eibaralye Yohana. 7Yohana akaletwa obujulizi, kujulira omushana, abantu bona babone kwikiliza aha rwa wenene. 8Hakaba atali mushana, shana akaija kujulira omushana.
9Hakaba aliho omushana nyhakabara ogwaijaga omu nsi, nigwo gwakiza kaishe muntu. 10Hakaba ali omu nsi, mara n'iwe yagitonzire, kyonkai ensi tiyamumanyire. 11Akaija omwabo, kyonkai aba wenene tibamunyegeize. 12Kyonkai bona abamunyegeize, bakamwesiga, hakabaha obushobora bw'okuba baana ba Ruhanga; 13abatazairwe butondwa bwa muntu anga aha rw'omuntu kwenda, shana bakazarwa Ruhanga.
14Kigambo hakaba muntu yasingira omuli ichwe, aijwire ekisha n'amazima. Tukabona ekitinwakye, ekitinwa ekisaine Omwana omumoi ahali Ishe. 15Yohana akamujulira, yagamba n'eiraka lihango ati, “Ogu n'iwe nagambaga nti, ‘Alikunduga enyuma nanshaga. Akashangwaho inye nthakabaireho.’ ” 16Aha mwijurogwe gw'ekisha niho tutura nitwihya ekisha obutosha. 17Amateka gakaletwa ahali Musa; ekisha n'amazima byaletwa ahali Yesu Kirisito. 18Taliho muntu n'omoi araboine Ruhanga; shana Omwana omumoi omugonzibwa muno ahali Ishe, n'iwe yamanyisize Ruhanga ogwo omu bantu.
Obujulizi bwa Yohana Omubatiza ahali Yesu
(Mat 3:1-12; Mar 1:1-8; Luk 3:1-18)
19Obu nibwo bujulizi bwa Yohana orwo Abayahudi ba Yerusalemu batumire abakuhani n'Abalevita kumubaza bati, “Iwe oli ohai?” 20Akagamba tiyayetongire, ati, “Inye tindi Kirisito.” 21Bamubaza bati, “Aho oli ohai? Isi oli Eliya?” Wenene ahorora ati, “Tindi Eliya.” Bati, “Isi oli murangi?” Ahorora ati, “Chei.” 22Bamubaza bati, “Oli ohai? Otuhorore ekyo turagya tukagambira abatutumire. Noyegambahoki?” 23Abahorora ati,
“Inye ndi iraka ly'alikukungeleza omw'irungu, ati,
‘Mugorore omuhanda gw'Omukama,’
nk'okwo omurangi Isaya yagambire.”
24Bonene abo bakaba batumirwe Abafarisayo. 25Bamubaza bati, “Aho orwo otali Kirisito, anga Eliya, anga omurangi, kubaki nobatiza?” 26Yohana abahorora ati, “Inye nimbatiza n'amaizi; kyonkai omuli inywe halimu owo mutalikumanya, 27nangu n'iwe alikunduga enyuma, owo ntasaine kukomorora rukoba rwa biratwa.” 28Ebyo bikabaho omuli Betania, buseli bwa Yorudani, mbali Yohana yabatilizaga.
Akataama ka Ruhanga
29Bukeire Yohana abona Yesu namwijaho, agamba ati, “Mulebe Akataama ka Ruhanga, akaiza okufakara kw'ensi! 30Ogu n'iwe mbagambira nti, ‘Alikunduga enyuma nanshaga ekitinwa, enshonga akashangwaho inye nthakabaireho.’ 31Tinamanyaga alija ali wa ngeliki, kyonkai inye nkabatiza n'amaizi, aije amanyike omuli Isiraeli.”
32Yohana ajulira ati, “Nkabona Mwoyo nahanantuka omw'iguru omu mishusire y'ekiiba, ekiiba ekyo kyaija kyamubandaraho. 33Inye nyenene tinamumanyaga; kyonkai ayantumire kubatiza n'amaizi akangambira ati, ‘Ow'orabona Mwoyo nahanantuka akamubandaraho, ogwo n'iwe alibatiza na Mwoyo Mutakatifu.’ 34Inye nayeboneire mara ndi mujulizi okwo ogu ali Mwana wa Ruhanga.”
Abegesibwa ba Yesu aba mbere
35Bukeire bunu Yohana ashangwa ayemeleire n'abegesibwa babili. 36Aleba Yesu nagenda agamba ati, “Mulebe Akataama ka Ruhanga!” 37Abegesibwabe bamuhulira nagamba atyo, bahondera Yesu. 38Yesu kayahindukire abona okwo bamuhondeire, ababaza ati, “Nimuhigaki?” Bamuhorora bati, “Rabi,” nikwo kugamba kuti, “Mwegesa, noikara nkahai?” 39Abahorora ati, “Mwije mulebe.” Bagenda babona mbali yabaire naikara; zikaba zili nk'esaa 10, bagenda batobeza nawe eizoba. 40Omu begesibwa babili abahuliire Yesu nagamba, omoi arugaho amuhondera: N'iwe Anderea murumuna Simoni Petero. 41Anderea owo yaboine mbere ni Simoni mukuruwe, amugambira ati, “Twabona Masiha,” nikwo kugir'oti Kirisito. 42Amuletera Yesu. Yesu kayamulebire agamba ati, “N'iwe Simoni eya Yohana? Orayetwaga Kefa,” nikwo kugir'oti Rwazi.
Yesu nayeta Filipo na Natanaeli
43Bukeire, Yesu aimukya kugya Galilaya. Abona Filipo, amugambira ati, “Ompondere.” 44Filipo ogwo yarugaga Betisaida, ekigo kya Anderea na Petero. 45Filipo abona Natanaeli, amugambira ati, “Twabona owo Musa yagambire omu Mateka owo abarangi barangire, n'iwe Yesu owa Nazareti, mutabani wa Yozefu.” 46Natanaeli amugambira ati, “Nazareti yakurugwamu akarungi kona kona?” Filipo amushubamu ati, “Ija obone.” 47Yesu abona Natanaeli naija, amugambira ati, “Leba Omunyaisiraeli nyhakabara, atainamu bugobya!” 48Natanaeli abaza Yesu ati, “Wamany'otai?” Yesu amuhorora ati, “Filipo atakakwesire, orwo waba oshuntamire aha muti gw'omutini, nakubona.” 49Natanaeli amuhorora ati, “Rabi, oli Mwana wa Ruhanga! Oli Mukama wa Isiraeli?” 50Yesu amugarukamu ati, “Aha rw'okuba nakugambira okwo nakubona oshutamiire aha mutini, nikyo waikililiza? Noija kubona eby'amani kushaaga ebi.” 51Ashuba amugambira ati, “Mazima, mazima ninkugambira nti, mulibona eiguru likingukire, n'abamalaika ba Ruhanga nibatemba nibasongoka baizire aha Mwana w'Omuntu.”
