Gospel of Thomas 50 in English and Udugi ꭴꮪꭹ

 

Saying 50: Our Origin and Identity

Jesus said, "If they ask you, 'Where do you come from?' tell them, 'We've come from the light, the place where light came into being by itself, [established] itself, and appeared in their image.'

"If they ask you, 'Is it you?' then say, 'We are its children, and we're chosen by our living Father.'

"If they ask you, 'What's the sign of your Father in you?' then say, 'It's movement and rest.'"

tsisa hinegise, "iyuno nasgidv adadvdodase nihi didla 'hatlv nihi nvlase nidvlenvda?' kanohedu nasgidv didla, 'itsula nvlase ulvsada nidvlenvda, hatlv ulvsada gesvise udenvta uwasaquu vhnai. nasgi gadogise ale agadudesdise nasgine unatseli nasgiyai hawina.' iyuno nasgidv adadvdodase nihi didla, 'nasgi gesvase nihi?' nahiyui hinegu, 'itsula gesvase niyotlidi nasgi vhnai, ale itsula gesvase asuyesdita aquatseli alenidohv edoda gvdodi.' iyuno nasgidv adadvdodase nihi didla, 'gado-usdi gowelodo nihi edoda vhnai nihi hawina?' nahiyui hinegu, 'nasgi gesvase adanvsido ale atsawesolvsdo.'"
