< Yohana 11 >

1 Mundu jumo jwakuŵilanjikwa che Lasalo juŵatamaga nsinda wa ku Besania ŵaliji jwakulwala. Che Maliamu ni nlumbugwe che Masa ŵatamaga nsinda ulaula.
And a certain one was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister.
2 Che Maliamu ju ni jwejula juŵampakesye mauta ga kununjila Ambuje Che Yesu mmakongolo ni kwasyula ni umbo syakwe. Che Lasalo mpwakwe che Maliamu ni juŵalwalaga.
And Mary was the one anointing the Lord with myrrh, and wiping His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Nipele achalumbugwe ŵalajisye utenga ku Che Yesu achitiji, “Ambuje, mbusanga gwenu junkunnonyela akulwala!”
Then the sisters sent to Him, saying, Lord, behold the one whom thou lovest is sick.
4 Che Yesu paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵatite, “Ulwele wo ngaummulaga che Lasalo, nambo ulwele wo ukopochele kwaligongo lya ukulu wa Akunnungu, kuti Mwana jwa Akunnungu apochele ukulu kwa litala lya ulwele wo.”
And Jesus hearing said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.
5 Che Yesu ŵaanonyele che Masa ni che Maliamu pamo ni che Lasalo.
Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus, with Divine love.
6 Che Yesu paŵapilikene kuti che Lasalo akulwala, ŵajonjechesye moŵa gane gaŵili ga kutama paŵaliji pala.
Therefore when He heard that he was sick, He then remained two days in the place in which He was.
7 Nipele ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Tuujile sooni ku Yudea!”
Then after this He says to the disciples, Let us go again unto Judea.
8 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaasalile, “Jwakwiganya, nganagapite moŵa gamajinji Ŵayahudi ŵasachile kummulaga ni maganga, kwachichi nkusaka tuujile sooni kweleko?”
The disciples said to Him, Master, the Jews were but now seeking to stone thee; dost thou go hither again?
9 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana ngati gapali masaa likumi ni gaŵili ga muusi? Mundu ajendaga muusi ngaakombola kulikuŵala pakuŵa akuliwona lilanguka lya pachilambo chi.
Jesus responded, Are there not twelve hours of the day? If any one may walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world:
10 Nambo mundu ajendaga chilo chalikuŵale pakuŵa lilanguka nganilipagwa.”
if any one may walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
11 Che Yesu paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵaasalile, “Mbusanga jwetu che Lasalo agonile, nambo uneji chinyaule kukunjimusya.”
He spoke these things: and after this He says to them, Our friend Lazarus is asleep; and I go that I may awaken him.
12 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵansalile, “Ambuje iŵaga agonile chalame.”
Then the disciples said to Him, Lord, if he is asleep, he will be saved.
13 Che Yesu ŵaŵechetaga nkati chiwa chi che Lasalo, nambo ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaganisyaga kuti che Lasalo agonile.
But Jesus spoke concerning his death: and they thought that He spoke concerning the rest of sleep.
14 Nipele Che Yesu ŵaasalile pangasisa kuti, “Che Lasalo ajasiche,
Then however Jesus spoke to them openly, Lazarus is dead,
15 nambo kwa ligongo lyenu ngusengwa, pakuŵa nganima kweleko, kuti ŵanyamwe nkulupilile. Sambano tujaule kwa jwelejo.”
and I rejoice on account of you that I was not there, in order that you may believe; but let us go to him.
16 Che Tomasi jwakuŵilanjikwa Maŵila, ŵaasalile achinjakwe, “Ni uweji tujaule pamo ni Jwakwiganya kuti tukawe pamo nawo!”
Then Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow-disciples; Let us go too, that we may die with Him.
17 Nipele, Che Yesu paŵaiche kweleko, ŵachisimene chiilu chi che Lasalo chili mwilembe kwa moŵa ncheche.
Then Jesus having come, found him having four days in the sepulcher.
18 Nsinda wa ku Besania waŵandichile ku Yelusalemu mpela maili siŵili.
But Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs.
19 Ŵayahudi ŵajinji ŵaiche kukwatusya ntima che Masa ni che Maliamu kwa ligongo lya chiwa cha mpwao.
And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Nipele che Masa paŵapilikene kuti Che Yesu akwika, ŵajawile kukwachingamila, nambo che Maliamu ŵasigele pamusi.
Then Martha, when she heard that Jesus comes, went to meet Him: and Mary sat in the house.
21 Che Masa ŵaasalile Che Yesu, “Ambuje, nkaliji papapa pepa mpwangu ngakajasiche.
Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 Nambo, namuno sambano ngumanyilila kuti chachili chose chichimwaŵende Akunnungu champe.”
And now I know that, whatsoever things you may ask of God, God will give to you.
23 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Mpwenu chasyuche.”
Jesus says to her, Thy brother will rise again.
24 Che Masa ŵajanjile, “Ngumanyilila kuti chachisyuka pa lyuŵa lya mbesi Akunnungu pachiŵasyusye ŵandu.”
Martha says to Him, I know he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day.
25 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Uneji ndili usyusyo ni jungwapa ŵandu umi. Mundu jwakungulupilila uneji atamuno ajasikaga, chakole umi,
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection and the life; the one believing on me, though he may die, shall live: and
26 ni mundu jwalijose jwakutama ni kungulupilila une ngajasika sooni. Uli nkugakulupilila gelego?” (aiōn g165)
every one living and believing on me can never die: do you believe this? (aiōn g165)
27 Che Masa ŵansalile Che Yesu, “Elo Ambuje! Ngukulupilila kuti ŵalakwe ni Kilisito, Mwana jwa Akunnungu, ŵakwika pa chilambo pano.”
She says to Him, Yes, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, come into the world.
28 Che Masa paŵaŵechete yeleyo ŵajinjile nkati ni kwaŵilanga che Maliamu mlumbugwe ni kwasalila chipasipasi, “Jwakwiganya aiche ni sooni akumbilanga.”
And having said this, she departed, and called her sister Mary, speaking secretly, The Teacher is present, and calls you.
29 Nombe che Maliamu paŵapilikene yeleyo ŵajimwiche kwakwanguya ni kwajaulila Che Yesu.
She, when she heard, arises quickly, and comes to Him:
30 Che Yesu ŵaliji nganajinjile mu nsinda, nambo ŵaliji kulakula kuŵachingamilwe ni che Masa.
Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was yet in the place where Martha met Him.
31 Nipele, Ŵayahudi ŵaŵaliji nkati ali nkwatulasya ntima che Maliamu, paŵambweni che Maliamu ajimwiche ni pangakaŵa akopweche paasa, ŵaakuiye. Ŵaganisisye kuti akwaula kumalembe kukulila.
Then the Jews being with her in the house, and comforting her, seeing Mary, that she arose up quickly and went out, followed her, thinking that she goes to the tomb in order that she may weep there.
32 Nipele, che Maliamu paŵaiche paŵaliji Che Yesu pala ni paŵambweni Che Yesu, ŵatindiŵele ni kwasalila, “Ambuje, nkaliji papapa pepa mpwangu ngakajasiche!”
Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, seeing Him, fell at His feet, saying to Him, Lord, if Thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 Che Yesu paŵambweni che Maliamu ali nkulila, ni Ŵayahudi ŵaŵalongene ni che Maliamu nombe akulila, Che Yesu ŵasupwiche nnope ni kupwa ntima.
Then when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews, having come with her, weeping, He groaned in spirit, and troubled Himself,
34 Nipele ŵausisye, “Ana mummisile kwapi?” Ni ŵansalile, “Ambuje, njise kunnole.”
and said, Where have you laid him? They say to Him, Lord, come and see.
35 Che Yesu ŵalisile.
Jesus wept.
36 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵatite, “Nnole yatite pakunnonyela!”
Then the Jews were saying, Behold, how He loved him as a friend!
37 Nambo ŵandu ŵane ŵatite, “Iŵaga ŵagalamisye meeso ga jwangalola jula, kwachichi nganakombola kuntenda che Lasalo anajasiche?”
And some of them said, Was not this One, having opened the eyes of the blind, able to bring it to pass, that he indeed should not die?
38 Nipele Che Yesu akuno ali nkusupuka sooni mu ntima mwao, ŵaiche pa lilembe. Lilembe lyene lyaliji mbugu lyaliunichikwe ni liganga.
Then Jesus again groaning in Himself comes to the tomb; and it was a cave, and a stone was laid upon it.
39 Che Yesu ŵasalile, “Ngalambule liganga lyo!” Che Masa alumbugwe jwajasiche jo, ŵaasalile, “Ambuje, atandite kununga, pakuŵa atemi mwilembe moŵa ncheche!”
Jesus says; Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to Him; Lord, already he smelleth: for he is dead four days.
40 Che Yesu ŵansalile che Masa, “Ana nganinansalila kuti mwakulupililaga chimuuwone ukulu wa Akunnungu?”
Jesus says to her; Did I not tell thee, that, if thou canst believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?
41 Nipele ŵagalambwile liganga lila. Che Yesu ŵalolite kwinani ni ŵatite, “Atati nguntogolela pakuŵa mmwejo nkuumbilikanila.
Then they took away the stone; and Jesus lifted up His eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee, because Thou hast heard Me.
42 None ngumanyilila kuti nkuumbilikanila moŵa gose. Nambo ŵechete yelei ligongo lyao ŵandu ŵasongangene pelepa ŵa kuti akulupilile kuti mmwejo mundumile une!”
I know that Thou dost always hear Me; but on account of the multitude standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that Thou didst send Me.
43 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo, ŵaŵilasile kwaliloŵe lyekulungwa, “Che Lasalo! Nkopoche paasa!”
And speaking these things, He cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 Juŵajasiche jo ŵakopweche paasa akuno ali ataŵikwe saanda mmakongolo ni makono ni ku meeso. Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵandu, “Mummugule, munneche ajaule.”
And the dead came out, bound as to his feet and hands with graveclothes; and his face bound round with a napkin. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and let him go.
45 Nipele Ŵayahudi ŵajinji ŵaŵaiche ku che Maliamu paŵaiweni yaitesile Che Yesu yo, ŵakulupilile.
Then many of the Jews, having come to Mary and seeing the things which He did, believed on Him:
46 Nambo ŵandu ŵane mwa ŵelewo ŵajawile kwa Mafalisayo ni kwasalila aila yaitesile Che Yesu.
but certain ones of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus did.
47 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni Mafalisayo ŵausimanisye Nkungulu wekulu wa Ŵayahudi, ŵaliusisye, “Tutende chichi? Pakuŵa mundu ju akupanganya imanyisyo yejinji.
Then the chief priests and Pharisees assembled the Sanhedrin, and continued to say, What are we doing? because this man is doing many miracles.
48 Twannekaga ajendelechele, ŵandu wose chankulupilile, ni achakulu ŵa Chiloma chaiche kukujijonanga Nyuumba jetu ja Akunnungu ni ŵandu ŵetu ni chilambo chetu.”
If we thus let Him alone, all will believe on Him: and the Romans will come and take away our place and nation.
49 Pelepo jumo jwao jwakuŵilanjikwa che Kayafa, chele chaka cho ŵaliji Jwambopesi Jwankulu, ŵaasalile, “Ŵanyamwe ngankumanyilila kose!
But one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them,
50 Ana ngankuganisya kuti ikuŵajilwa mundu jumo ŵawile ŵandu wose, kupunda chijonanjikwe chilambo chose?”
You know nothing, you do not consider that it is profitable to you, that one man may die for the people, and the whole nation perish not.
51 Ŵelewo nganaŵecheta yeleyo kwa kusaka kwakwe nsyene, nambo ligongo ŵaliji Jwambopesi Jwankulu chele chaka cho, ŵalondwele kuti Che Yesu chawe kwa ligongo lya ŵandu ŵa chilambo cha Ŵayahudi,
And he spoke this not of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation.
52 sooni ngaŵa kwa Ŵayahudi pe nambo kuti ŵasonganganye pamo ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ŵaŵapwilingene mwinemwine kuti aŵe chindu chimo.
And not only for the nation, but that He may gather into one the children of God dispersed abroad.
53 Nipele kutandilila lyuŵa lyo achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi ŵajilene kwaulaga Che Yesu.
Then from that day they passed the verdict, that they would kill Him.
54 Kwa yele, Che Yesu nganajendajendaga sooni kwa kulilosya pasikati ja Ŵayahudi, nambo ŵatyosile pelepo, ŵajawile kwiuto kwakuŵandikene ni lipululu, musi waukuŵilanjikwa Eflaimu. Ŵatemi kweleko pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao.
Therefore Jesus walked no more publicly among the Jews, but went away thence into the country near the desert, into a city called Ephraim; and there tarried with His disciples.
55 Lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya Pasaka ja Ŵayahudi lyaŵandichile, ni ŵandu ŵajinji ŵakwesile kwaula ku Yelusalemu kuti aliswejesye kwaligongo lya kwapopelela Akunnungu, likanaŵe lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya Pasaka.
And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and many came up out of the country into Jerusalem before the passover, in order that they might purify themselves.
56 Nipele ŵaliji nkwasosa Che Yesu. Nombewo paŵasongangene pamo pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, ŵausyene, “Ana nkuganisya uli? Nkuti ngaaika ku chindimba chi?”
Then they were seeking Jesus, and standing in the temple, they were saying one with another, What seems to you; that He may not come to the feast?
57 Achakulu ŵambopesi ni Mafalisayo ŵalajisye kuti iŵaga kwana mundu jwakumanyi kwali Che Yesu, asale kuti ŵaakamule.
And both the high priests and Pharisees had given commandment, if any one should know where He is, he should communicate it, in order that they might arrest Him.
