San Juan 12
1 AYO na tiempo, saes na jaane antes de pascua, si Jesus malag Betania anae estaba si Lasaro, ayo y guinin matee, ya si Jesus munacajulo guine y entelo manmatae.
Six days before the Passover Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead, was living.
2 Ya manmanmatinas güije un sena, ya si Marta mañeñetbe; ya si Lasaro, güiya uno gui entalo sija na manmatatachong gui lamasa yan güiya.
There a supper was given in honour at which Martha waited, while Lazarus was one of those present at the table.
3 Ayo nae si Maria jachule un libra na inggüente, gasgas na natda, guefguaguan, ya japalae y adeng Jesus, ya jasaosao y adengña nu gaponuluña; ya bula y guima ni pao inggüente.
So Mary took a pound of choice spikenard perfume of great value, and anointed the feet of Jesus with it, and then wiped them with her hair. The whole house was filled with the scent of the perfume.
4 Ayo nae ilegña uno gui disipuluña, si Judas Iscariote lajin Simon, ayo y umintrega güe,
One of the disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was about to betray Jesus, asked:
5 Jafa mina ti mabende este na inggüente pot tres siento denario na salape, ya unumae y mamobble?
“Why was not this perfume sold for thirty pounds, and the money given to poor people?”
6 Este ilegña, ti pot inadajiña ni mamobble; lao pot guiya y saque, ya guaja y betsaña, ya jachuchule ayo y sinajguanña.
He said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and, being in charge of the purse, used to take what was put in it.
7 Enaomina ilegña si Jesus, Polo güe, para ayo na jaane nae majafot yo, na uadaje este.
“Let her alone,” said Jesus, “that she may keep it till the day when my body is being prepared for burial.
8 Sa y mamobble siempre gagaegue guiya jamyo; lao guajo taegüeyo guiya jamyo.
The poor you always have with you, but you will not always have me.”
9 Entonses, dangculo na linajyan taotao, gui Judio sija, jatungo na gaegue güe güije, ya manmato, ti pot causan si Jesusja, lao locue para umalie si Lasaro ni guinin janacajulo guine y entelo manmatae.
Now great numbers of the Jews found out that Jesus was at Bethany; and they came there, not solely on his account, but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Ya manafaesen entre sija, manmagas y mamale sija, para umapuno locue si Lasaro.
The Chief Priests, however, plotted to put Lazarus, as well as Jesus, to death,
11 Sa pot causa di güiya, megae na Judio sija manmalag ayo ya manmanjonggue gui as Jesus.
because it was owing to him that many of the Jews had left them, and were becoming believers in Jesus.
12 Ynagpaña na jaane, dangculo na linajyan taotao, y manmato gui guipot, anae majungog na si Jesus mato guiya Jerusalem,
On the following day great numbers of people who had come to the Festival, hearing that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, took palm-branches,
13 Manmañule ni y ramas y trongcon palma ya manmapos para umaresibe güe ya manaagang: Osana! Dichoso güe ni mamamaela ni y naan y Señot, y Ray Israel!
and went out to meet him, shouting as they went: “‘God save Him! Blessed is He who Comes in the name of the Lord’ — The King of Israel!”
14 Ya anae jasoda si Jesus un patgon na bulico, matachong gui jiloña; taegüije y matugue:
Having found a young ass, Jesus seated himself on it, in accordance with the passage of Scripture —
15 Chamo maañao, jago jagan Sion! estagüe y Raymo na mato, matatachong gui jilo un patgon bulico.
‘Fear not, Daughter of Zion; Behold, thy King is coming to thee, Sitting on the foal of an ass.’
16 Y finenana, y disipuloña ti jatungo estesija; lao y tiempo anae si Jesus esta cumajulo gui langet, entonses manmajaso na estesija este matugue nu güiya, ya sija guinin manmafatinas este sija yan güiya.
His disciples did not understand all this at first; but, when Jesus had been exalted, then they remembered that these things had been said of him in Scripture, and that they had done these things for him.
17 Y linajyan taotao na estaba mañisija, anae jaagang juyong si Lasaro gui naftan, ya janacajulo gui entalo manmatae, janae testimonio nu güiya.
Meanwhile the people who were with him, when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead, were telling what they had seen.
18 Pot enao locue y linajyan taotao manmato ya maresibe güe, sa majungog na munjayan jafatinas este na señat.
This, indeed, was why the crowd met him — because people had heard that he had given this sign of his mission.
19 Pot enao Fariseo sija ilegñija entre sija: Lie na taya probechonmiyo: Estagüe na todo gui jilo y tano manjanao ya dalalag güe.
So the Pharisees said to one another: “You see that you are gaining nothing! Why, all the world has run after him!”
20 Ya guaja sija na taotao Griego ni gui ayo sija na mangajulo para uadodora gui guipot:
Among those who were going up to worship at the Festival were some Greeks,
21 Ayo sija manmato gui as Felipe taotao Betsaida guiya Galilea, ya magagao güe, ilegñija: Señot, manmalagojam inlie si Jesus!
who went to Philip of Bethsaida in Galilee, and said: “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.”
22 Mato si Felipe ya jasangane si Andres; ya mamaela si Andres yan si Felipe masangane si Jesus.
Philip went and told Andrew, and then together they went and told Jesus.
23 Ya si Jesus maninepe ilegña: Y ora mato na y Lajin taotao uresibe y minalagña.
This was his reply — “The time has come for the Son of Man to be exalted.
24 Magajet ya magajet jusangane jamyo, na y granon trigo ni ti upodong gui tano, ya umatae, güiya namaesa sumaga; yaguin matae megae na tinegcha uchule.
In truth I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains solitary; but, if it dies, it becomes fruitful.
25 Y gumaeya y linâlâña ufinalaguaejon; y chumatlie y linâlâña güine gui tano, pinipilanja y taejinecog na jaane. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life loses it; while he who hates his life in the present world shall preserve it for Immortal Life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Yaguin guaja y somesetbe yo, udalalag yo; ya mano nae gaegue yo, ayo locue nae ugaegue y somesetbe yo. Yaguin guaja y somesetbe yo, si Tata uenenra güe.
If a man is ready to serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there my servant shall be also. If a man is ready to serve me, my Father will honour him.
27 Pago lebog y antijo: Ya jafa quentosjo? Tata nalibre yo pago na ora! Lao pot este mato yo güine na ora.
Now I am distressed at heart and what can I say? Father, bring me safe through this hour — yet it was for this very reason that I came to this hour —
28 Tata, namalag y naanmo! Pot enao mato guine y langet un inagang, ilegña: Estaba junamalag, ya bae junamalag otro biaje.
Father, honour thine own name.” At this there came a voice from Heaven, which said: “I have already honoured it, and I will honour it again.”
29 Y linajyan taotao na mangaegue ya injingog ilegñija: guinin julo este. Palo ilegñija: Un angjet sumangane güe.
The crowd of bystanders, who heard the sound, said that it was thundering. Others said: “An angel has been speaking to him.”
30 Ynepe as Jesus ya ilegña: Ti mato este na inagang pot y causaco lao pot y causanmiyo.
“It was not for my sake that the voice came,” said Jesus, “but for yours.
31 Pago gaegue y juisio nu este na tano. Pago y magas este na tano umayute juyong.
Now this world is on its trial. Now the Spirit that is ruling this world shall be driven out;
32 Ya guajo, yaguin guajo umajatsayo guine y tano, jucone todo para guajoja.
and I, when I am lifted up from the earth, shall draw all men to myself.”
33 Ya este masangan para umatungo jafa na finatae nae umatae.
By these words he indicated what death he was destined to die.
34 Ynepeña y linajyan taotao: Jame injingog y lay na si Cristo ugaegue para todo y tiempo. Jafa mina unsangan: Na y Lajin taotao nesesita umajatsa? Jaye güe este Lajin taotao? (aiōn g165)
“We,” replied the people, “have learned from the Law that the ‘Christ is to remain for ever’; how is it, then, that you say that the Son of Man must be ‘lifted up’ Who is this ‘Son of Man’?” (aiōn g165)
35 Ayo nae si Jesus ilegña nu sija: Didide na tiempo y candet ugaegue gui entalonmiyo. Fanmamocat mientras guaguaja y candet para jamyo, sa no sea infanguinacha ni y jemjom; sa y jumajanao gui jemjom, ti jatungo para mano nae y jinanaoña.
“Only a little while longer,” answered Jesus, “will you have the Light among you. Travel on while you have the Light, so that darkness may not overtake you; he who travels in the darkness does not know where he is going.
36 Mientras guaguaja y candet para jamyo, fanmanjonggue ni y candet, para unfamaguon y candet jamyo. Estesija jasangan si Jesus, ya mapos ya umatog pot sija.
While you still have the Light, believe in the Light, that you may be ‘Sons of Light.’” After he had said this, Jesus went away, and hid himself from them.
37 Lao achogja jafatinas megae na señat gui menanñija ti majonggue güe.
But, though Jesus had given so many signs of his mission before their eyes, they still did not believe in him,
38 Para umacumple y sinangan ni ilegña si Isaias profeta: Señot, jaye jumonggue y sinanganta? Ya y canae y Señot, jaye guinin munamalie?
in fulfilment of the words of the Prophet Isaiah, where he says — ‘Lord, who has believed our teaching? And to whom has the might of the Lord been revealed?’
39 Pot este mina ti siña sija majonggue, sa tomalo jasangan si Isaias:
The reason why they were unable to believe is given by Isaiah elsewhere, in these words —
40 Janafanbachet y atadogñija, ya janamajetog y corasoñija: Sa ti manmalie ni y atadogñija, ni ujatungo ni y corasonñija, ya sigue mamañotsot, ya guajo juamte sija.
‘He has blinded their eyes, and blunted their mind, so that they should not see with their eyes, and perceive with their mind, and turn — And I should heal them.’
41 Estesija jasangan si Isaias, anae jalie minalagña ya inadingane.
Isaiah said this, because he saw Christ’s glory; and it was of him that he spoke.
42 Pago na tiempo achogja megae na taotao senmagas, jumonggue gue; lao pot causa y Fariseo sija, ti masangan claro, na no sea mayute gui sinagoga.
Yet for all this, even among the leading men there were many who came to believe in Jesus; but, on account of the Pharisees, they did not acknowledge it, for fear that they should be expelled from their Synagogues;
43 Pot jafa muna manmalago sija y inenra y taotao, qui y inenra guine as Yuus.
for they valued honour from men more than honour from God.
44 Si Jesus umagang ilegña: Y jumonggue yo, guajoja, ti jajonggue lao ayo y tumago yo.
But Jesus had proclaimed: “He who believes in me believes, not in me, but in him who sent me;
45 Y umatan yo, güiya umatan y tumago yo.
and he who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Mato yo gui jilo y tano parejoja y candet, para todo ayo y jumonggue yo, ti sumaga gui jemjom.
I have come as a Light into the world, that no one who believes in me should remain in the darkness.
47 Y jumungog y sinanganjo ya ti jajonggue, guajo ti jujusga; sa ti mato yo para jufanjusga gui tano, lao para junafanlibre y tano.
When any one hears my teaching and pays no heed to it, I am not his judge; for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Ya y rumechasa yo ya ti rumesibe y sinanganjo, guaja ujinisga güe: Y sinangan ni jusangan, güiya ufanjusga güije uttimo na jaane.
He who rejects me, and disregards my teaching, has a judge already — the very Message which I have delivered will itself be his judge at the Last Day.
49 Sa ti guinin juadingan namaesa; lao si Tata ni tumago yo, güiya numae yo tinago ni para jusangan yan y para jucuentos.
For I have not delivered it on my own authority; but the Father, who sent me, has himself given me his command as to what I should say, and what message I should deliver.
50 Ya jutungo na y tinagoña, güiya linâlâ taejinecog: enaomina ayo sija jusangan; taegüije si Tata guinin jasangane yo, taegüijeja jusasangan. (aiōnios g166)
And I know that Immortal Life lies in keeping his command. Therefore, whatever I say, I say only what the Father has taught me.” (aiōnios g166)
