The Bible in Indonesia

1 In the beginning, our Heavenly Father created the heavens and the earth.

1 Pada mulanya, Bapa Surgawi kita menciptakan langit dan bumi.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of our Father was hovering over the surface of the waters.

2 Bumi belum berbentuk dan kosong, kegelapan menutupi permukaan samudra raya, dan Roh Bapa kita melayang-layang di atas permukaan air.

3 Then our Father said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

3 Lalu Bapa kita berfirman, "Jadilah terang," maka terang itu pun jadi.

4 He saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.

4 Ia melihat bahwa terang itu baik, dan Ia memisahkan terang dari kegelapan.

5 He called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

5 Ia menamai terang itu "siang," dan kegelapan itu Ia namai "malam." Lalu jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari pertama.

6 And our Father said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water."

6 Dan Bapa kita berfirman, "Jadilah cakrawala di antara segala air untuk memisahkan air dari air."

7 So he made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so.

7 Maka Ia menjadikan cakrawala itu dan memisahkan air yang ada di bawah cakrawala dari air yang ada di atasnya. Dan jadilah demikian.

8 He called the expanse "sky." So there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.

8 Ia menamai cakrawala itu "langit." Maka jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari kedua.

9 Then our Father said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so.

9 Lalu Bapa kita berfirman, "Hendaklah air yang ada di bawah langit berkumpul pada satu tempat, dan hendaklah tanah kering tampak." Dan jadilah demikian.

10 He called the dry ground "land," and the gathered waters he called "seas." And he saw that it was good.

10 Ia menamai tanah kering itu "darat," dan kumpulan air itu Ia namai "laut." Dan Ia melihat bahwa itu baik.

11 Then he said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees that bear seed-bearing fruit, each according to its kind." And it was so.

11 Lalu Ia berfirman, "Hendaklah darat menumbuhkan tunas-tunas hijau: tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji dan pohon-pohon yang menghasilkan buah berbiji, masing-masing menurut jenisnya." Dan jadilah demikian.

12 The land produced vegetation: seed-bearing plants according to their kinds and trees bearing seed-bearing fruit according to their kinds. And our Father saw that it was good.

12 Darat itu menumbuhkan tunas-tunas hijau: tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji menurut jenisnya dan pohon-pohon yang menghasilkan buah berbiji menurut jenisnya. Dan Bapa kita melihat bahwa itu baik.

13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.

13 Dan jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari ketiga.

14 And our Father said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark the seasons, the days, and the years,"

14 Dan Bapa kita berfirman, "Jadilah benda-benda penerang pada cakrawala langit untuk memisahkan siang dari malam, dan biarlah semuanya menjadi tanda yang menandai musim, hari, dan tahun,"

15 "and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so.

15 "dan biarlah semuanya menjadi penerang pada cakrawala langit untuk menerangi bumi." Dan jadilah demikian.

16 Our Father made two great lights: the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.

16 Bapa kita menjadikan dua benda penerang yang besar: penerang yang lebih besar untuk menguasai siang dan penerang yang lebih kecil untuk menguasai malam. Ia menjadikan juga bintang-bintang.

17 He set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth,

17 Ia menempatkan semuanya pada cakrawala langit untuk menerangi bumi,

18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And he saw that it was good.

18 untuk menguasai siang dan malam, serta untuk memisahkan terang dari kegelapan. Dan Ia melihat bahwa itu baik.

19 So there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

19 Maka jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari keempat.

20 Then our Father said, "Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the sky."

20 Lalu Bapa kita berfirman, "Hendaklah air berkeriapan dengan makhluk-makhluk hidup, dan hendaklah burung-burung beterbangan di atas bumi melintasi cakrawala langit."

21 So he created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves and teems in the water, each according to its kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And he saw that it was good.

21 Maka Ia menciptakan makhluk-makhluk laut yang besar dan setiap makhluk hidup yang bergerak dan berkeriapan di dalam air, masing-masing menurut jenisnya, serta setiap burung bersayap menurut jenisnya. Dan Ia melihat bahwa itu baik.

22 Our Father blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds multiply on the earth."

22 Bapa kita memberkati semuanya, firman-Nya, "Beranakcuculah dan berkembang biaklah serta penuhilah air di laut, dan hendaklah burung-burung berkembang biak di bumi."

23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.

23 Dan jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari kelima.

24 And our Father said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so.

24 Dan Bapa kita berfirman, "Hendaklah darat menghasilkan makhluk-makhluk hidup menurut jenisnya: ternak, binatang yang merayap di tanah, dan binatang liar, masing-masing menurut jenisnya." Dan jadilah demikian.

25 He made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And he saw that it was good.

25 Ia menjadikan binatang liar menurut jenisnya, ternak menurut jenisnya, dan segala binatang yang merayap di tanah menurut jenisnya. Dan Ia melihat bahwa itu baik.

26 Then our Father said, "Let us make humanity in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over every creature that moves along the ground."

26 Lalu Bapa kita berfirman, "Marilah Kita menjadikan manusia menurut gambar Kita, menurut rupa Kita, supaya mereka berkuasa atas ikan di laut dan burung di udara, atas ternak, atas seluruh bumi, dan atas setiap makhluk yang merayap di tanah."

27 So our Father created humanity in their own image; in the image of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit he created them; male and female he created them.

27 Maka Bapa kita menciptakan manusia menurut gambar-Nya sendiri; menurut gambar Bapa, Anak, dan Roh Kudus diciptakan-Nya mereka; laki-laki dan perempuan diciptakan-Nya mereka.

28 Our Father blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

28 Bapa kita memberkati mereka dan berfirman kepada mereka, "Beranakcuculah dan berkembang biaklah; penuhilah bumi dan taklukkanlah itu. Berkuasalah atas ikan di laut dan burung di udara, serta atas setiap makhluk hidup yang bergerak di tanah."

29 Then he said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that bears seed-bearing fruit. They will be yours for food.

29 Lalu Ia berfirman, "Aku memberikan kepadamu setiap tumbuhan yang berbiji di seluruh permukaan bumi dan setiap pohon yang menghasilkan buah berbiji. Semuanya itu menjadi makananmu.

30 "And to all the animals of the earth, all the birds in the sky, and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food." And it was so.

30 "Dan kepada segala binatang di bumi, segala burung di udara, dan segala makhluk yang merayap di tanah—segala yang bernyawa di dalamnya—Aku memberikan setiap tumbuhan hijau untuk makanan." Dan jadilah demikian.

31 Our Father saw all that he had made, and it was very good. So there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.

31 Bapa kita melihat segala sesuatu yang telah dijadikan-Nya, dan itu sungguh amat baik. Maka jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi—itulah hari keenam.

1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

1 Ada seorang dari kalangan orang Farisi yang bernama Nikodemus, seorang pemimpin agama Yahudi.

2 This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from our Father, for no one can do these signs that you do unless our Father is with him."

2 Pada suatu malam ia datang kepada Yesus dan berkata kepada-Nya, "Rabi, kami tahu bahwa Engkau adalah seorang guru yang datang dari Bapa kita, sebab tidak seorang pun dapat melakukan tanda-tanda yang Engkau lakukan, jika Bapa kita tidak menyertainya."

3 Jesus replied to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of our Father."

3 Yesus menjawabnya, "Sesungguh-sungguhnya Aku berkata kepadamu, jika seseorang tidak dilahirkan kembali, ia tidak dapat melihat Kerajaan Bapa kita."

4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

4 Nikodemus berkata kepada-Nya, "Bagaimana mungkin seseorang dilahirkan ketika ia sudah tua? Dapatkah ia masuk kembali ke dalam rahim ibunya dan dilahirkan?"

5 Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Holy Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of our Father."

5 Yesus menjawab, "Sesungguh-sungguhnya Aku berkata kepadamu, jika seseorang tidak dilahirkan dari air dan Roh Kudus, ia tidak dapat masuk ke dalam Kerajaan Bapa kita."

6 What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Holy Spirit is spirit.

6 Yang dilahirkan dari daging adalah daging, dan yang dilahirkan dari Roh Kudus adalah roh.

7 Don't be amazed that I said to you, 'You must be born again.'

7 Janganlah kamu heran karena Aku berkata kepadamu, 'Kamu harus dilahirkan kembali.'

8 The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Holy Spirit.

8 Angin bertiup ke mana ia mau, dan engkau mendengar bunyinya, tetapi engkau tidak tahu dari mana ia datang atau ke mana ia pergi. Demikianlah halnya dengan setiap orang yang dilahirkan dari Roh Kudus.

9 Nicodemus said to him, "How can these things be?"

9 Nikodemus berkata kepada-Nya, "Bagaimanakah hal itu dapat terjadi?"

10 Jesus answered him, "Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things?"

10 Yesus menjawabnya, "Engkau guru orang Israel, namun engkau tidak memahami hal-hal ini?"

11 Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you do not receive our testimony.

11 Sesungguh-sungguhnya Aku berkata kepadamu, kami berbicara tentang apa yang kami ketahui, dan bersaksi tentang apa yang telah kami lihat, tetapi kamu tidak menerima kesaksian kami.

12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

12 Jikalau Aku berbicara kepadamu tentang hal-hal duniawi dan kamu tidak percaya, bagaimanakah kamu akan percaya jika Aku berbicara kepadamu tentang hal-hal surgawi?

13 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.

13 Tidak seorang pun pernah naik ke surga selain Dia yang telah turun dari surga, yaitu Anak Manusia.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

14 Dan sama seperti Musa meninggikan ular di padang gurun, demikian juga Anak Manusia harus ditinggikan,

15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.

15 supaya setiap orang yang percaya kepada-Nya beroleh hidup yang kekal.

16 For our Father so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

16 Karena begitu besar kasih Bapa kita akan dunia ini, sehingga Ia mengaruniakan Anak-Nya yang tunggal, supaya setiap orang yang percaya kepada-Nya tidak binasa, melainkan beroleh hidup yang kekal.

17 For our Father did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but so that the world might be saved through him.

17 Sebab Bapa kita mengutus Anak-Nya ke dalam dunia bukan untuk menghakimi dunia, melainkan supaya dunia diselamatkan oleh-Nya.

18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of our Father.

18 Barangsiapa percaya kepada-Nya, ia tidak dihukum; tetapi barangsiapa tidak percaya, ia telah berada di bawah hukuman, sebab ia tidak percaya kepada nama Anak Tunggal Bapa kita.

19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.

19 Dan inilah penghakiman itu: terang telah datang ke dalam dunia, tetapi manusia lebih menyukai kegelapan daripada terang, sebab perbuatan-perbuatan mereka jahat.

20 For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, for fear that his works will be exposed.

20 Sebab setiap orang yang berbuat jahat membenci terang dan tidak datang kepada terang, karena takut perbuatan-perbuatannya akan tersingkap.

21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in our Father.

21 Tetapi barangsiapa melakukan apa yang benar, ia datang kepada terang, supaya nyatalah bahwa perbuatan-perbuatannya telah dikerjakan di dalam Bapa kita.

22 After this, Jesus and his disciples went into the Judean countryside, and there he remained with them and was baptizing.

22 Sesudah itu, Yesus pergi bersama murid-murid-Nya ke wilayah pedesaan Yudea, dan di sana Ia tinggal bersama mereka serta membaptis.

23 John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because water was plentiful there, and people were coming and being baptized,

23 Yohanes juga membaptis di Ainon dekat Salim, sebab di sana banyak air, dan orang-orang berdatangan untuk dibaptis,

24 for John had not yet been put in prison.

24 karena pada waktu itu Yohanes belum dimasukkan ke dalam penjara.

25 Now a discussion arose between some of John's disciples and a Jew over purification.

25 Maka timbullah suatu perselisihan antara beberapa murid Yohanes dan seorang Yahudi tentang penyucian.

26 And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you across the Jordan, to whom you bore witness—look, he is baptizing, and all are going to him."

26 Lalu mereka datang kepada Yohanes dan berkata kepadanya, "Rabi, orang yang bersamamu di seberang Sungai Yordan, yang tentang Dia engkau telah bersaksi—lihatlah, Ia membaptis, dan semua orang pergi kepada-Nya."

27 John replied, "A person cannot receive even one thing unless it is given him from heaven."

27 Yohanes menjawab, "Tidak seorang pun dapat menerima sesuatu apa pun jika tidak dikaruniakan kepadanya dari surga."

28 You yourselves can testify that I said, 'I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.'

28 Kamu sendiri dapat bersaksi bahwa aku telah berkata, 'Aku bukan Kristus, tetapi aku diutus mendahului Dia.'

29 The one who has the bride is the bridegroom — Jesus. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete.

29 Dia yang memiliki mempelai perempuan adalah mempelai laki-laki—yaitu Yesus. Sahabat mempelai laki-laki, yang berdiri dan mendengarkan Dia, sangat bersukacita karena suara mempelai laki-laki itu. Maka sukacitaku ini sekarang menjadi sempurna.

30 He must increase, but I must decrease.

30 Ia harus makin besar, tetapi aku harus makin kecil.

31 The one who comes from above is above all. The one who is of the earth belongs to the earth and speaks in an earthly way. The one who comes from heaven is above all.

31 Dia yang datang dari atas berada di atas segala sesuatu. Dia yang berasal dari bumi adalah milik bumi dan berbicara secara duniawi. Dia yang datang dari surga berada di atas segala sesuatu.

32 He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony.

32 Ia bersaksi tentang apa yang telah dilihat dan didengar-Nya, namun tidak seorang pun menerima kesaksian-Nya.

33 Whoever receives his testimony confirms that our Father is true.

33 Barangsiapa menerima kesaksian-Nya, ia mengakui bahwa Bapa kita benar.

34 For the one whom our Father has sent speaks the words of our Father, for he gives the Holy Spirit without measure.

34 Sebab Dia yang diutus oleh Bapa kita menyampaikan firman Bapa kita, karena Ia mengaruniakan Roh Kudus tanpa batas.

35 Our Father loves the Son and has given all things into his hand.

35 Bapa kita mengasihi Sang Anak dan telah menyerahkan segala sesuatu ke dalam tangan-Nya.

36 Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of our Father remains on him.

36 Barangsiapa percaya kepada Sang Anak beroleh hidup yang kekal; tetapi barangsiapa tidak taat kepada Sang Anak tidak akan melihat hidup, melainkan murka Bapa kita tetap ada padanya.
