Yohane 13
1 Inali pafupifupi nthawi ya phwando la Paska. Yesu anadziwa kuti nthawi yafika yoti achoke mʼdziko lapansi ndi kupita kwa Atate. Atawakonda ake amene anali mʼdziko lapansi, Iye anawaonetsa chikondi chake chonse.
Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
2 Atayamba kudya mgonero, mdierekezi anali atalowa kale mu mtima wa Yudasi Isikarioti mwana wa Simoni, kuti amupereke Yesu.
During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,
3 Yesu podziwa kuti Atate anamupatsa Iye zonse mʼmanja mwake, ndi kuti Iye anachokera kwa Mulungu ndipo amabwerera kwa Mulunguyo;
Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,
4 anayimirira kuchoka pa chakudya navula zovala zake natenga nsalu yopukutira nadzimanga mʼchiwuno mwake.
arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5 Atachita izi, anathira madzi mʼbeseni ndi kuyamba kusambitsa mapazi a ophunzira ake, ndi kuwapukuta ndi chopukutira chimene anachimanga mʼchiwuno mwake.
Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
6 Atafika pa Petro, Petroyo anati kwa Iye, “Ambuye, kodi mudzandisambitsa mapazi anga?”
Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”
7 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Iwe sukuzindikira tsopano chimene ndikuchita, koma udzazindikira mʼtsogolo.”
Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”
8 Petro anati, “Ayi, Inu simudzandisambitsa konse mapazi anga.” Yesu anayankha kuti, “Ngati Ine sindisambitsa mapazi ako, ulibe gawo mwa Ine.” (aiōn g165)
Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simoni Petro anayankha kuti, “Ambuye, osati mapazi okha komanso manja anga ndi mutu wanga womwe!”
Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
10 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Munthu amene wasamba amangofunika kusamba mapazi ake okha chifukwa thupi lake lonse ndi loyera. Ndipo inu ndinu oyera, ngakhale kuti si aliyense mwa inu.”
Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”
11 Pakuti Iye anadziwa amene adzamupereka, ndipo nʼchifukwa chake anati saliyense wa inu ali woyera.
For he knew him who would betray him; therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”
12 Iye atamaliza kusambitsa mapazi awo anavala zovala zake ndi kubwerera pamalo pake. Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi mukuzindikira zimene ndakuchitirani inu?
So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
13 Inu mumanditcha Ine, ‘Mphunzitsi’ ndi ‘Mbuye,’ ndipo mumakhoza mukamatero, pakuti ichi ndi chimene Ine ndili.
You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.
14 Tsono ngati Ine, Mbuye wanu ndi Mphunzitsi wanu, ndasambitsa mapazi anu, inunso muyenera kusambitsana mapazi anu.
If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15 Ine ndakupatsani chitsanzo kuti muzichita monga Ine ndachitira.
For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.
16 Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti wantchito saposa mbuye wake, kapena wotumidwa kuposa amene wamutuma.
Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither is one who is sent greater than he who sent him.
17 Ngati inu mudziwa zinthu zimenezi, mudzakhala odala mukamazichita.
If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
18 “Ine sindikunena za inu nonse. Ine ndikudziwa amene ndinawasankha. Koma izi zikukwaniritsa malemba: ‘Iye amene akudya nawo chakudya changa, ndiye amene anandiwukira.’
I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’
19 “Ine ndikukuwuzani tsopano zisanachitike zimenezi, kuti pamene zachitika, mudzakhulupirire kuti Ine Ndine.
From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.
20 Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti aliyense amene alandira amene Ine ndamutuma, alandiranso Ine. Aliyense amene alandira Ine, alandiranso amene anandituma.”
Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”
21 Yesu atanena izi, anavutika kwambiri mu mzimu ndipo anachitira umboni kuti, “Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti mmodzi mwa inu adzandipereka.”
When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22 Ophunzira ake anapenyetsetsana wina ndi mnzake, posadziwa kuti amanena za yani.
The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.
23 Mmodzi wa ophunzira ake amene Yesu anamukonda, anali atatsamira pachifuwa chake.
One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ chest.
24 Simoni Petro anamukodola wophunzirayo ndi kuti, “Mufunseni akunena za yani.”
Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”
25 Atamutsamiranso Yesuyo, anamufunsa Iye kuti, “Ambuye, kodi ndani?”
He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ chest, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Iye amene ndidzamupatsa buledi amene ndanyema ndikususa ndi ameneyo.” Kenaka, atasunsa gawo la buledi, Iye anapereka kwa Yudasi Isikarioti, mwana wa Simoni.
Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
27 Nthawi yomweyo Yudasi atangodya bulediyo, Satana analowa mwa Iye. Yesu anamuwuza Iye kuti, “Chomwe ukufuna kuchita, chita msanga.”
After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
28 Koma panalibe ndi mmodzi yemwe pa chakudyapo amene anamvetsa chifukwa chimene Yesu ananenera izi kwa iye.
Now nobody at the table knew why he said this to him.
29 Popeza Yudasi amasunga ndalama, ena amaganiza kuti Yesu amamuwuza iye kuti akagule zomwe zimafunika pa phwando, kapena kukapereka kanthu kena kake kwa osauka.
For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
30 Nthawi yomweyo Yudasi atangodya buledi, anatuluka, ndipo unali usiku.
Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
31 Yudasi atatuluka, Yesu anati, “Tsopano Mwana wa Munthu walemekezedwa, ndipo mwa Iyeyu Mulungu walemekezedwanso.
When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
32 Ngati Mulungu walemekezedwa mwa Iye, Mulungu mwini adzalemekezanso Mwana, ndipo amulemekeza nthawi yomweyo.
If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.
33 “Ana anga, Ine ndikhala nanu kwa nthawi yochepa chabe. Inu mudzandifunafuna Ine, ndipo monga momwe ndinawawuzira Ayuda, choncho Ine ndikukuwuzani tsopano kuti, kumene Ine ndikupita, inu simungabwereko.
Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.
34 “Lamulo latsopano limene ndikukupatsani ndi lakuti: Kondanani wina ndi mnzake, monga momwe Ine ndinakonda inu. Nanunso mukondane wina ndi mnzake.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.
35 Mukamakondana aliyense adzadziwa kuti ndinu ophunzira anga.”
By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
36 Simoni Petro anafunsa kuti, “Ambuye, kodi mukupita kuti?” Yesu anayankha kuti, “Kumene Ine ndikupita iwe sunganditsatire tsopano, koma udzanditsatira mʼtsogolo.”
Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”
37 Petro anafunsa kuti, “Ambuye, nʼchifukwa chiyani ine sindingakutsatireni tsopano? Ine ndidzapereka moyo wanga chifukwa cha Inu.”
Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
38 Kenaka Yesu anayankha kuti, “Kodi iwe udzalolera kutaya moyo chifukwa cha Ine? Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuza kuti tambala asanalire, iwe udzandikana katatu!”
Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.
