WALK IN THE LIGHT / WANDEL IN DIE LIG

30 August 2013

WALK IN THE LIGHT:

1. English - (NIV Translation)

[John 12:35-36]

35. Then Jesus told them: "You are going to have the Light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the Light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going. 

36. "Put your trust in the Light while you have it, so that you may become sons of Light." When He had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid Himself from them. 

WANDEL IN DIE LIG:

2. Afrikaans - (Ou Afrikaanse vertaling)

[Johannes 12:35-36]

35. En Jesus sê vir hulle: "Nog 'n klein tydjie is die Lig by julle. Wandel so lank as julle die Lig het, sodat die duisternis julle nie oorval nie. En wie in die duisternis wandel, weet nie waar hy gaan nie. 

36. "So lank as julle die Lig het, glo in die Lig, sodat julle kinders van die Lig kan word." Dit het Jesus gespreek, en Hy het weggegaan en Hom vir hulle verberg.

JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD/JESUS IS DIE LIG VAN DIE WÊRELD.

JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD:

1. English - (NIV Translation.)

[John 1:1-5]

1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God, 

2. He was with God in the beginning. 

3. Through Him all things were made; without Him nothing was made that has been made. 

4. In Him was life, and that Life was the Light of men. 

5. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. 

[John 3:19-21]

19. "This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of Light because their deeds were evil. 

20. "Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and will not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 

21. "But whoever lives by the truth comes into the the Light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."

[John 8:12]

When Jesus spoke again to the people, He said: "I Am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the Light of life."

JESUS IS DIE LIG VAN DIE WÊRELD:

2. Afrikaans - (Ou Afrikaanse Vertaling)

[Johannes  1:1-5]

1. In die begin was die Woord, en die Woord was by God, en die Woord was God. 

2. Hy was in die begin by God. 

3. Alle dinge het deur Hom ontstaan, en sonder Hom het nie een ding ontstaan wat ontstaan het nie. 

4. In Hom was lewe, en die Lewe was die Lig van mense. 

5. En die Lig skyn in die duisternis, en die duisternis het dit nie oorweldig nie. 

[Johannes 3:19-21]

19. "En dit is die oordeel: dat die Lig in die wêreld gekom het, en die mense het die duisternis liewer gehad as die Lig; want hulle werke was boos. 

20. "Want elkeen wat kwaad doen, haat die Lig en kom nie  na die Lig nie, dat sy werke nie bestraf mag word nie. 

21." Maar hy wat die waarheid doen, kom na die Lig, sodat sy werke openbaar kan word, dat hulle in God gedoen is."

[Johannes 8:12]

En Jesus het weer met hulle gespreek en gesê: "Ek is die Lig van die wêreld; wie My volg sal sekerlik nie in die duisternis wandel nie, maar sal die Lig van die lewe hê."

4. Yes, though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death, I will fear or dread no evil, for You are with me; Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort me. 

5. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my [brimming] cup runs over.
