Yohana 13
1 Lyaliji likanaŵe lyuŵa lyekulungwa lya Pasaka. Che Yesu achimanyililaga kuti katema kao kakutyoka pachilambo chino ni kwaula kwa Atati ŵao kaiche. Moŵa gose ŵanonyele ŵandu ŵao ŵaali pachilambo, elo, ŵanonyele kwa unonyelo wangali mbesi!
Now just before the Feast of the Passover this incident took place. Jesus knew that the time had come for Him to leave this world and go to the Father; and having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
2 Nipele Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵatemi achilyaga chakulya cha ligulo. Jwakulinga ŵamasile kwajinjila che Yuda, mwana ju che Simoni Isikaliote ni kwapa nganisyo sya kwagalauka Che Yesu.
While supper was proceeding, the Devil having by this time suggested to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, the thought of betraying Him, Jesus,
3 Che Yesu ŵaimanyi kuti Atati ŵao aŵisile indu yose paasi pa ulamusi wakwe, ni kuti nsyene ŵatyosile kwa Akunnungu ni akuuja kwa Akunnungu.
although He knew that the Father had put everything into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was now going to God,
4 Nipele, ŵatyosile pachakulya pala, ŵawusile likoti lyakwe ni kuŵika pambali, ŵajigele chitambaa ni kulitaŵa mchiunu.
rose from the table, threw off His upper garments, and took a towel and tied it round Him.
5 Nipele ŵatechile meesi mu nkambo wa mwana ni kutanda kwakunda makongolo ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kwasyula ni chitambaa chiŵalitawile mchiunu chila.
Then He poured water into a basin, and proceeded to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel which He had put round Him.
6 Paŵaiche ku che Simoni Petulo, jwelejo ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ambuje, ana mmwe nkusaka kuungunda makongolo gangu?”
When He came to Simon Peter, Peter objected. "Master," he said, "are you going to wash my feet?"
7 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ngankuchimanya chingupanganya sambano, nambo chinchimanye kanyuma.”
"What I am doing," answered Jesus, "for the present you do not know, but afterwards you shall know."
8 Che Petulo ŵansalile Che Yesu, “Mmwe ngamungunda makongolo gangu kose.” Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Iŵaga ngangugakunda makongolo genu, mmwejo ngamma jwakulijiganya jwangu.” (aiōn g165)
"Never, while the world lasts," said Peter, "shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," replied Jesus, "you have no share with me." (aiōn g165)
9 Che Simoni Petulo ŵanjanjile, “Ambuje, mungunde, ngaŵa makongolo pe, nambo ni makono gangu ni ntwe wangu nombe nawo.”
"Master," said Peter, "wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head."
10 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Jwanjoje amasile kusalala, akusachilwa kulikunda mmakongolo pe. Ŵanyamwe nsalele, ikaŵe mundu jumo pe.”
"Any one who has lately bathed," said Jesus, "does not need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over. And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true of all of you."
11 Che Yesu ŵammanyilile ajula juchiŵagalauche, kwa ligongo lyo ŵatite, “Ŵanyamwe nsalele, ikaŵe mundu jumo pe.”
For He knew who was betraying Him, and that was why He said, "You are not all of you clean."
12 Paŵamalisisye kwakunda makongolo gao, ŵawasile likoti lyakwe, ŵatemi sooni ni kwausya, “Ana nchimanyi chele chindesile kukwenu cho?
So after He had washed their feet, put on His garments again, and returned to the table, He said to them, "Do you understand what I have done to you?
13 Ŵanyamwe nkuumilanga une Jwakwiganya ni Ambuje, nkuŵecheta uchenene, pakuŵa yeleyo ni indite pakuŵa.
You call me 'The Rabbi' and 'The Master,' and rightly so, for such I am.
14 Nipele iŵaga uneji jundi Ambuje ni Jwakwiganya, nankundile makongolo genu ni ŵanyamwe nkuŵajilwa nkundane makongolo jwine ni jwine.
If I then, your Master and Rabbi, have washed your feet, it is also your duty to wash one another's feet.
15 Nampele chitagu chi, kuti ni ŵanyamwe mpanganyeje iyoyo mpela inampanganyichisye ŵanyamwe.
For I have set you an example in order that you may do what I have done to you.
16 Ngunsalila isyene, ngapagwa kapolo jwakumpunda mmbujegwe, atamuno ngapagwa jwakutumichila jwakumpunda jwantumile.
In most solemn truth I tell you that a servant is not superior to his master, nor is a messenger superior to him who sent him.
17 Nipele iŵaga ngamanyi gelego, chinkole upile iŵaga chingatende.”
If you know all this, blessed are you if you act accordingly.
18 “Ginguŵecheta ga ngaŵa kwa ŵanyamwe ŵanawose. Uneji ngwamanyilila yatite pakuŵa ŵanawose unasagwile ŵala. Nambo gakusachilwa gamalile Malembelo ga Akunnungu gagakuti, ‘Mundu jwakulya chakulya pamo ni uneji amujilile nkusa.’
I am not speaking of all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but things are as they are in order that the Scripture may be fulfilled, which says, 'He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'
19 Uneji nansalile gelega sambano gakanaŵe kopochela, kuti pachigakopochele po nkulupilile kuti, ‘Uneji ndili jwelejo.’
From this time forward I tell you things before they happen, in order that when they do happen you may believe that I am He.
20 Ngunsalila isyene, mundu jwalijose juchampochele junguntuma, jwelejo akumbochela ni une, ni mundu jwakumbochela uneji akumpochela jwele jwandumile une.”
In most solemn truth I tell you that he who receives whoever I send receives me, and that he who receives me receives Him who sent me."
21 Che Yesu paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵasupwiche nnope mmbumu jao, ŵaŵechete pangasisa kuti, “Ngunsalila isyene, jumo jwenu chang'alauche!”
After speaking thus Jesus was troubled in spirit and said with deep earnestness, "In most solemn truth I tell you that one of you will betray me."
22 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵalolegene anakombole kwimanyilila kuti ŵagambaga ŵaani.
The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know to which of them He was referring.
23 Jumo jwa ŵakulijiganya ŵao juŵanonyelwe nnope ni Che Yesu, ŵatemi pachiŵandi ni Che Yesu.
There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved-- reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.
24 Nipele che Simoni Petulo ŵankupilile jwakulijiganya jula kunsalila, “Mwausye ana akwagamba ŵaani?”
Making a sign therefore to him, Simon Peter said, "Tell us to whom he is referring."
25 Jwakulijiganya jo ŵammandichile nnope Che Yesu ni kwausya, “Ambuje ana ŵaani nkwagamba?”
So he, having his head on Jesus's bosom, leaned back and asked, "Master, who is it?"
26 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Jwelejo ni ajula juchinampambile chipande cha nkate ni kwapa.” Nipele ŵajigele chipande cha nkate, ni kupamba mu mbaale, ŵampele che Yuda mwana ju che Simoni Isikaliote.
"It is the one," answered Jesus, "for whom I shall dip this piece of bread and to whom I shall give it." Accordingly He dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas, the son of the Iscariot Simon.
27 Che Yuda napochelape chipande cho, ŵajinjilwe ni Shetani. Nipele Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Chinkusaka kuchipanganya, nchipanganye chitema pe!”
Then, after Judas had received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. "Lose no time about it," said Jesus to him.
28 Nambo ngapagwa mundu jwalijose mwa aŵala ŵaŵatemi pachakulya pala juŵaimanyilile ligongo lya kwasalila yeleyo.
But why He said this no one else at the table understood.
29 Pakuŵa che Yuda ŵaliji jwakugosa mbiko, ŵakulijiganya ŵane ŵaganisisye kuti Che Yesu ŵaasalile che Yuda kuti ajaule akasume indu yaikusachilwa ku chindimba cha Pasaka, pane ŵaasalile kuti akapeleganye chachili chose kwa ŵakulaga.
Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box Jesus meant, "Buy what we require for the Festival," or that he should give something to the poor.
30 Nipele, che Yuda napochelape chipande cha nkate chila, ŵakopweche paasa. Ni kele katema ko kaliji chilo.
So Judas took the piece of bread and immediately went out. And it was night.
31 Che Yuda paŵakopweche, Che Yesu ŵatite, “Sambano Mwana jwa Mundu apatile ukulu, ni Akunnungu nombe apatile ukulu mwa jwelejo.
So when he was gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.
32 Iŵaga ukulu wa Akunnungu uwunukwiche kwa litala lya Mwana jwa Mundu, nipele Akunnungu asyene chauunukule ukulu wa Mwana jwa Mundu, nombewo chiŵakusye chitema pe.”
Moreover God will glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him without delay.
33 “Achiŵanangu, ndili ni ŵanyamwe kwa moŵa kanandi pe. Chimuusose, nambo sambano ngunsalila aila inaasalile achakulu ŵa Ŵayahudi kuti, ‘Kungwaula ŵanyamwe ngankombolanga kwika!’
Dear children, I am still with you a little longer. You will seek me, but, as I said to the Jews, 'Where I am going you cannot come,' so for the present I say to you.
34 Malajisyo ga sambano ngumpanga gati nnonyelane jwine ni jwine. Mpela indite pakunnonyela ŵanyamwe, kwanti iyoyo peyo nnonyelane jwine ni jwine.
A new commandment I give you, to love one another; that as I have loved you, you also may love one another.
35 Mwanonyelanaga jwine ni jwine, ŵandu ŵanawose chachimanyilila kuti ŵanyamwe ndi ŵakulijiganya ŵangu.”
It is by this that every one will know that you are my disciples--if you love one another."
36 Che Simoni Petulo ŵambusisye Che Yesu, “Ana Ambuje nkwenda kwapi?” Ni Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Kungwaula sambano ngankombola kuunguya, nambo chimuunguye kanyuma.”
"Master," inquired Simon Peter, "where are you going?" "Where I am going," replied Jesus, "you cannot be my follower now, but you shall be later."
37 Che Petulo ŵansalile, “Ambuje, ligongo chi lichilepele kunkuya sambano? Ndili chile kuwa kwa ligongo lyenu!”
"Master," asked Peter again, "why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down my life on your behalf.
38 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana isyene ndi chile kuwa kwa ligongo lyangu une? Isyene ngunsalila, jikanaŵe kutongola tambala chimuungane katatu!”
"You say you will lay down your life on my behalf!" said Jesus; "in most solemn truth I tell you that the cock will not crow before you have three times disowned me."
