3 Jesus arire tja ziri a tja: “Tjiri, tjiri, ami me ku raere ouatjiri, omundu tje hi nokukwatwa rukwao, kamaa sora okumuna ouhona wa Ndjambi.”
4 Nikodemus a pura a tja: “Omundu ngwa kurupa ma sora vi okukwatwa rukwao? Indu eye ma sora okuyaruka mezumo raina na pandukwa rukwao porutjavari are?”
5 Jesus wa zirire a tja: “Tjiri, tjiri, ami me ku raere ouatjiri, omundu tje hi nokukwatwa momeva na mOmbepo, kamaa sora okuhita mouhona wa Ndjambi. 6 Ihi tji tja kwatwa momundu otjo omundu, nu tji tja kwatwa mOmbepo otjo ombepo. 7 Okumwa, tji me ku raere kutja eṋe amuhe mamu sokukwatwa rukwao. 8 Ombepo i hinga ku mai vanga. Ove mo zuu ombosiro yayo, nungwari ko nokutjiwa kutja mai zu pi nu mai i pi. Otjinga ape ri nao wina na ngamwa auhe ngu ma kwatwa mOmbepo.”
9 Nikodemus wa purire a tja: “Oviṋa mbi mavi sora okutjitwa vi?”
10 Jesus arire tja ziri a tja: “Oove omuhonge omutjiukwa mOisrael, noviṋa mbi ko vi i are? 11 Tjiri, tjiri, ami me ku raere ouatjiri, eṱe tu hungira imbi mbi matu tjiwa, nu tu hongonona imbi mbi twa munu, nungwari eṋe kamu vanga okuyakura omahongononeno wetu. 12 Ami tji mbe mu serekarerere oviṋa vyouye mbwi, eṋe kamaamu kambura mu ami, nu mamu kambura vi mu ami tji mbe mu serekarerere imbi ovyeyuru? 13 Kape nomundu ngwa rorere okuronda keyuru posi yOmuna wOmundu. Eye porwe ongwa zire keyuru.”
14 “Nu Moses otja punga a turikire onyoka yongoporo kotjihenḓe mokuti onguza, Omuna wOmundu wina opunga ama turikwa nao, 15 kokutja auhe ngu ma kambura mu ye a kare nomuinyo waaruhe. 16 Orondu Ndjambi wa suverere ouye tjinene nai nga tja yandja Omuna we omukwatwa erike, kokutja auhe ngu ma kambura mu ye a ha pandjara, nungwari a kare nomuinyo waaruhe. 17 Ndjambi ka hindire Omuna we kouye okuyekuupangura, nungwari we mu hindira kutja ouye u yamwe i ye.
18 “Ingwi ngwa kambura mOmuna ke nokupangurwa, nungwari ingwi ngu hi nokukambura, eye wa pangurwa rukuru, tjinga e ha kamburire mOmuna wa Ndjambi omukwatwa erike. 19 Nombanguriro ya Ndjambi i ri nai: Eye wa hinda Ondjerera ye mouye, nungwari imba ovandu ave suvere onḓorera okukapita Ondjerera, ozondjito zawo tjinga aze ri zouvi. 20 Omundu auhe ngu tjita ouvi wa tonda ondjerera, nu kemee ya kondjerera, tjinga e ha vanga kutja ozondjito ze zouvi ze horoke. 21 Nungwari auhe ngu tjita ouatjiri, eye meya kondjerera, kokutja ondjerera i raise kutja ozondjito ze za tjitwa monḓuviro ku Ndjambi.”

Tara, eye nambano ma papitisa wina, novandu avehe mave i ku ye!”
27 Johanes wa zirire a tja: “Omundu kamaa kara notjiṋa tjinangara eye ke tji perwe i Ndjambi. 28 Eṋe oveni oweṋe ovahongonone vandje indu tji mba tja: ‘Ami hiwami Omutwirisiwa, nungwari mba hindwa komurungu we.’ 29 Omuvareke onguri omuini womuvarekwa, nungwari epanga romuvareke nda kurama mbo amari puratene, oro mari nyanda omutima tjinene tji ra zuu eraka romuvareke. Ami opu mba zu okukara nondjoroka onene tjinene. 30 Onḓengu ye ngai kure, nu indji oyandje i yaruke kehi.”
