1 I n the beginning was the Word ( Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself.

Bilowgii waxaa jiray Ereyga, Ereyguna wuxuu la jiray Ilaah, Ereyguna wuxuu ahaa Ilaah.

2 H e was present originally with God.

Isagu Ilaah buu la jiray bilowgii.

3 A ll things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him was not even one thing made that has come into being.

Wax walba waxaa laga sameeyey xaggiisa, oo wixii la sameeyey lama samayn isaga la'aantiis.

4 I n Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men.

Isaga waxaa ku jirtay nolol, noloshuna waxay ahayd nuurka dadka.

5 A nd the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it.

Nuurkuna wuxuu ka ifayaa gudcurka, gudcurkuna kama badin.

6 T here came a man sent from God, whose name was John.

Waxaa jiray nin xagga Ilaah laga soo diray, magiciisuna wuxuu ahaa Yooxanaa.

7 T his man came to witness, that he might testify of the Light, that all men might believe in it through him.

Isagu wuxuu u yimid markhaati furid, inuu u marag furo nuurka, inay dhammaan xaggiisa ka wada rumaystaan.

8 H e was not the Light himself, but came that he might bear witness regarding the Light.

Isagu nuurka ma uu ahayn, laakiin wuxuu u yimid inuu nuurka u marag furo.

9 T here it was—the true Light coming into the world that illumines every person.

Kaasu wuxuu ahaa nuurka runta ah oo iftiimiya nin walba oo dunida yimaada.

10 H e came into the world, and though the world was made through Him, the world did not recognize Him.

Wuxuu ku jiray dunida, dunidana waxaa laga sameeyey xaggiisa, oo duniduna ma ay garanayn isaga.

11 H e came to that which belonged to Him, and they who were His own did not receive Him and did not welcome Him.

Wuxuu u yimid kuwiisii, kuwiisiina ma ay aqbalin isaga.

12 B ut to as many as did receive and welcome Him, He gave the authority (power, privilege, right) to become the children of God, that is, to those who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) His name—

Laakiin in alla intii aqbashay, wuxuu siiyey amar ay carruurtii Ilaah ku noqdaan, kuwaasu waa kuwii magiciisa rumaystay,

13 W ho owe their birth neither to bloods nor to the will of the flesh nor to the will of man, but to God.

oo aan ka dhalan dhiigga, ama doonistii jidhka, ama dad doonistiis, laakiin waxay ka dhasheen Ilaah.

14 A nd the Word (Christ) became flesh (human, incarnate) and tabernacled (fixed His tent of flesh, lived awhile) among us; and we saw His glory (His honor, His majesty), such glory as an only begotten son receives from his father, full of grace (favor, loving-kindness) and truth.

Ereyguna jidh buu noqday, oo waa ina dhex joogay, oo waxaannu aragnay ammaantiisii, taas oo ahayd ammaantii u ekayd tan Wiilka keliya ee Aabbaha, ee nimco iyo run ka buuxa.

15 J ohn testified about Him and cried out, This was He of Whom I said, He Who comes after me has priority over me, for He was before me.

Yooxanaa waa u marag furay isaga, wuxuuna ku qayliyey oo yidhi, Kanu waa kii aan idhi, Kan iga daba imanayaa waa iga horreeyey, waayo, hortay buu jiray.

16 F or out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favor upon favor and gift upon gift.

Dhammaanteen waxaynu buuxnaantiisa ka helnay nimco ka nimco.

17 F or while the Law was given through Moses, grace ( unearned, undeserved favor and spiritual blessing) and truth came through Jesus Christ.

Waayo, sharciga waxaa loo soo dhiibay Muuse, laakiinse nimcada iyo runtu waxay ku yimaadeen Ciise Masiix.

18 N o man has ever seen God at any time; the only unique Son, or the only begotten God, Who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

Ninna ma arkin Ilaah marnaba, Wiilka keliya oo laabta Aabbaha ku jira kaasaa inoo sheegay. Maraggii Yooxanaa Baabtiisihii Uu Ciise U Furay

19 A nd this is the testimony of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites to him from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?

Kanu waa maraggii Yooxanaa furay, markii Yuhuuddu Yeruusaalem uga soo direen wadaaddo iyo kuwo reer Laawi ah inay weyddiiyaan oo ku yidhaahdaan, Yaad tahay?

20 H e confessed (admitted the truth) and did not try to conceal it, but acknowledged, I am not the Christ!

Isagu waa qirtay, mana uu inkirin, oo wuxuu qirtay oo yidhi, Anigu ma ihi Masiixa.

21 T hey asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not! Are you the Prophet? And he answered, No!

Markaasay weyddiiyeen, Haddaba yaad tahay? Ma Eliyaas baad tahay? Wuxuuna yidhi, Ma ihi. Ma nebigii baad tahay? Wuxuuna ku jawaabay, Maya.

22 T hen they said to him, Who are you? Tell us, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?

Waxay haddaba ku yidhaahdeen, Yaad tahay? si aannu jawaab ugu celinno kuwii na soo diray. Yaad isku sheegaysaa?

23 H e said, I am the voice of one crying aloud in the wilderness, Prepare the way of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said.

Wuxuu yidhi, Waxaan ahay codka kan cidlada kaga qaylinaya, Jidka Rabbiga toosiya, siduu nebi Isayos u yidhi.

24 T he messengers had been sent from the Pharisees.

Kuwa la soo diray waxay ka yimaadeen Farrisiinta.

25 A nd they asked him, Why then are you baptizing if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?

Markaasay weyddiiyeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaba maxaad dadka u baabtiistaa haddaanad ahayn Masiixa ama Eliyaas ama nebigii?

26 J ohn answered them, I baptize in (with) water. Among you there stands One Whom you do not recognize and with Whom you are not acquainted and of Whom you know nothing.

Yooxanaa wuxuu ugu jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan dadka ku baabtiisaa biyo, laakiin dhexdiinna waxaa jooga mid aydnaan garanaynin

27 I t is He Who, coming after me, is preferred before me, the string of Whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose.

oo ah kan iga daba imanaya, kan aanan istaahilin inaan yeelmaha kabtiisa furo.

28 T hese things occurred in Bethany (Bethabara) across the Jordan '> at the Jordan crossing], where John was then baptizing.

Waxyaalahaasu waxay ka dhaceen Beytaniya taas oo ku taal Webi Urdun shishadiisa, oo ahayd meeshii Yooxanaa dadka ku baabtiisayay.

29 T he next day John saw Jesus coming to him and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world!

Maalintii labaad Yooxanaa wuxuu arkay Ciise oo ku soo socda, oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega Wanka Ilaah ee dembiga dunida qaadaya.

30 T his is He of Whom I said, After me comes a Man Who has priority over me because He was before me and existed before I did.

Kanu waa kii aan idhi, Waxaa iga daba imanaya nin iga horreeyey, waayo, hortay buu jiray.

31 A nd I did not know Him and did not recognize Him; but it is in order that He should be made manifest and be revealed to Israel that I came baptizing in (with) water.

Anigu ma aan aqoonin isaga, laakiin inuu Israa'iil u soo muuqdo sidaa daraaddeed ayaan u imid anigoo dadka biyo ku baabtiisa.

32 J ohn gave further evidence, saying, I have seen the Spirit descending as a dove out of heaven, and it dwelt on Him.

Yooxanaa waa marag furay isagoo leh, Waxaan arkay Ruuxa oo samada uga soo degaya sidii qoolley oo kale, wuuna dul joogsaday isagii.

33 A nd I did not know Him nor recognize Him, but He Who sent me to baptize in (with) water said to me, Upon Him Whom you shall see the Spirit descend and remain, that One is He Who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.

Anigu ma aan aqoonin isaga, laakiin kii ii soo diray inaan dadka biyo ku baabtiiso, wuxuu igu yidhi, Kii aad ku aragtid Ruuxa oo ku soo degaya oo ku dul joogsanaya, kaasu waa kan dadka ku baabtiisa Ruuxa Quduuska ah.

34 A nd I have seen and my testimony is that this is the Son of God!

Anigu waan arkay, waana u marag furay in kanu yahay Wiilka Ilaah. Xertii Ugu Horraysay

35 A gain the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,

Mar kale maalintii dambe Yooxanaa waa taagnaa isaga iyo laba xertiisa ahayd.

36 A nd he looked at Jesus as He walked along, and said, Look! There is the Lamb of God!

Oo wuxuu arkay Ciise oo socda, markaasuu yidhi, Bal eega Wanka Ilaah.

37 T he two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Him.

Labadii xerta ahaydna way maqleen isagoo hadlaya, wayna raaceen Ciise.

38 B ut Jesus turned, and as He saw them following Him, He said to them, What are you looking for? And they answered Him, Rabbi—which translated is Teacher—where are You staying?

Markaasaa Ciise soo jeestay, waana arkay iyagoo raacaya, kolkaasuu ku yidhi, Maxaad doonaysaan? Waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Rabbi (waxaa lagu fasiraa Macallin), Xaggee baad deggan tahay?

39 H e said to them, Come and see. So they went and saw where He was staying, and they remained with Him that day. It was then about the tenth hour (about four o’clock in the afternoon).

Wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaalaya oo arka, Markaasay yimaadeen oo arkeen meeshuu degganaa, wayna la joogeen maalintaas. Goortaas waxay ahayd abbaaraha saacaddii tobnaad.

40 O ne of the two who heard what John said and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

Mid ka mid ah labadii maqashay Yooxanaa oo raacday, wuxuu ahaa Andaros, Simoon Butros walaalkiis.

41 H e first sought out and found his own brother Simon and said to him, We have found (discovered) the Messiah!—which translated is the Christ (the Anointed One).

Isagu wuxuu hortii doonay walaalkiis Simoon oo ku yidhi, Waannu helnay Masiixa (kan lagu fasiro Kiristooska).

42 A ndrew then led (brought) Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, You are Simon son of John. You shall be called Cephas—which translated is Peter.

Markaasuu wuxuu u geeyey Ciise. Ciisena intuu eegay ayuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Adigu waxaad tahay Simoon ina Yoonis. Waxaa lagu odhan doonaa Keeyfas (oo fasirkiisu yahay Butros).

43 T he next day Jesus desired and decided to go into Galilee; and He found Philip and said to him, Join Me as My attendant and follow Me.

Maalintii labaad wuxuu doonayay inuu Galili tago, oo wuxuu helay Filibos. Ciisena wuxuu ku yidhi, I soo raac.

44 N ow Philip was from Bethsaida, of the same city as Andrew and Peter.

Filibos wuxuu ahaa reer Beytsayda taas oo ah magaaladii Andaros iyo Butros.

45 P hilip sought and found Nathanael and told him, We have found (discovered) the One Moses in the Law and also the Prophets wrote about—Jesus from Nazareth, the son of Joseph!

Markaasaa Filibos wuxuu doonay Nataana'el oo ku yidhi, Waxaannu helnay kii Muuse sharciga ku qoray wax isaga ku saabsan, oo nebiyadiina ay qoreen wax isaga ku saabsan, waana Ciisihii reer Naasared oo ah ina Yuusuf.

46 N athanael answered him, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip replied, Come and see!

Nataana'el wuxuu ku yidhi, Ma wax wanaagsan baa ka iman kara Naasared? Markaasaa Filibos wuxuu ku yidhi, Kaalay oo arag.

47 J esus saw Nathanael coming toward Him and said concerning him, See! Here is an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile nor deceit nor falsehood nor duplicity!

Ciise wuxuu arkay Nataana'el oo ku soo socda, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Bal eeg, kanu waa mid reer Israa'iil oo run ah oo aan khiyaano lahayn.

48 N athanael said to Jesus, How do You know me? Jesus answered him, Before Philip called you, when you were still under the fig tree, I saw you.

Markaasaa Nataana'el wuxuu ku yidhi, Xaggee baad igu tiqiin? Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Intaan Filibos kuu yeedhin, markaad geedkii berdaha hoostiisa joogtay, ayaan ku arkay.

49 N athanael answered, Teacher, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!

Kolkaasaa Nataana'el u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Macallimow, waxaad tahay Wiilka Ilaah, oo waxaad tahay boqorkii Israa'iil.

50 J esus replied, Because I said to you, I saw you beneath the fig tree, do you believe in and rely on and trust in Me? You shall see greater things than this!

Ciise ayaa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Ma waxaad u rumaysatay odhaatinkii aan kugu idhi, Geedka berdaha hoostiisa ayaan kugu arkay? Waxaad arki doontaa wax waxyaalahaas ka waaweyn.

51 T hen He said to him, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you all, you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man!

Markaasuu ku yidhi, Runtii, runtii, waxaan idinku leeyahay, Waxaad arki doontaan samadoo furan iyo malaa'igaha Ilaah oo kor u kacaya oo ku soo degaya Wiilka Aadanaha.
