John 11
1 Now a certain Lazarus, from Bethany of the village of Mary and her sister Martha, was sick.
Kwaiva neumwe wairwara, wainzi Razaro weBhetaniya, mumusha waMaria nemukoma wake Marita.
2 And Mary was the woman who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
Waiva iye Maria wakazodza Ishe nemafuta, akapusika tsoka dzake nevhudzi rake, hanzvadzi yake Razaro wakange achirwara.
3 The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou love is sick.
Naizvozvo hanzvadzi dzakatumira kwaari dzichiti: Ishe, tarirai uyo wamunoda anorwara.
4 But when Jesus heard, he said, This sickness is not about death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by it.
Jesu wakati anzwa akati: Ukosha uhu hahusviki murufu, asi ndehwembiri yaMwari, kuti Mwanakomana waMwari arumbidzwe nahwo.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
Zvino Jesu wakange achida Marita nemunin'ina wake naRazaro.
6 When therefore he heard that he is sick, then he actually remained two days in that place he was.
Naizvozvo wakati anzwa kuti anorwara, ipapo akagara mazuva maviri panzvimbo paakange ari.
7 Later after this he says to the disciples, Let us go into Judea again.
Shure kweizvozvo wakati kuvadzidzi: Hendeizve kuJudhiya.
8 The disciples say to him, Rabbi, the Jews were now seeking to stone thee, and thou go there again.
Vadzidzi vakati kwaari: Rabhi, VaJudha vachangobva kutsvaka kukutakai nemabwe; zvino moendazve ikoko here?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
Jesu akapindura akati: Hapana maawa gumi nemaviri masikati here? Kana munhu achifamba masikati, haagumburwi, nokuti anoona chiedza chenyika ino.
10 But if any man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.
Asi kana munhu achifamba usiku, anogumburwa, nokuti hamuna chiedza maari.
11 He spoke these things, and after this he says to them, Our friend Lazarus has become asleep, but I go that I may awake him.
Wakataura zvinhu izvi, shure kweizvozvo ndokuti kwavari: Shamwari yedu Razaro yarara; asi ndinoenda kuti ndimumutse.
12 His disciples therefore said, Lord, if he has become asleep, he will be healed.
Naizvozvo vadzidzi vake vakati: Ishe, kana arere, achanaya.
13 But Jesus had spoken about his death, but those men thought that he was speaking about the restfulness of sleep.
Asi Jesu wakareva zverufu rwake; asi ivo vakafunga kuti anoreva kuzorora kwehope.
14 Therefore Jesus then said to them plainly, Lazarus died.
Naizvozvo ipapo Jesu akavaudza pachena: Razaro wafa.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that ye may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him.
Zvino ndinofara nekuda kwenyu kuti ndakange ndisipo, kuti mugotenda; asi hendei kwaari.
16 Therefore Thomas, called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
Naizvozvo Tomasi, wainzi Dhidhimo, wakati kuvadzidzi pamwe naye: Hendei isuwo kuti tinofa naye.
17 So when Jesus came, he found him already four days being kept in the sepulcher.
Zvino Jesu wakati achisvika, akawana atova muguva mazuva mana.
18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs away from it,
Zvino Bhetaniya rakange riri pedo neJerusarema, masitadhiya anenge gumi nemashanu kubva ipapo;
19 and many of the Jews had come to the women, about Martha and Mary, so that they might console them about their brother.
nevazhinji veVaJudha vakange vauya kuna Marita naMaria, kuti vavanyaradze pamusoro pehanzvadzi yavo.
20 Therefore Martha, when she heard that Jesus was coming, met him, but Mary was sitting in the house.
Zvino Marita wakati anzwa kuti Jesu wouya, akaenda kunomuchingamidza; asi Maria wakagara mumba.
21 Martha therefore said to Jesus, Lord, if thou were here, my brother would not have died.
Marita ndokuti kuna Jesu: Ishe, dai maiva pano, hanzvadzi yangu ingadai isina kufa.
22 But I know even now that as many things as thou may ask of God, God will give to thee.
Asi naikozvino ndinoziva kuti zvipi zvazvo zvamunokumbira kuna Mwari, Mwari achakupai.
23 Jesus says to her, Thy brother will rise.
Jesu akati kwaari: Hanzvadzi yako ichamukazve.
24 Martha says to him, I know that he will rise in the resurrection at the last day.
Marita akati kwaari: Ndinoziva kuti achamukazve pakumuka nezuva rekupedzisira.
25 Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, even though he died, he will live.
Jesu akati kwaari: Ndini kumuka neupenyu; anotenda kwandiri, kunyange akafa, achararama;
26 And every man who lives and believes in me will, no, not die, into the age. Do thou believe this? (aiōn g165)
uye umwe neumwe anorarama uye anotenda kwandiri, haangatongofi nekusingaperi. Unotenda izvi here? (aiōn g165)
27 She says to him, Yes, Lord, I have believed that thou are the Christ, the Son of God who comes into the world.
Akati kwaari: Hongu, Ishe; ini ndinotenda kuti ndimwi Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari, waizouya panyika.
28 And when she said these things, she departed and called Mary her sister privately, saying, The teacher is here and calls thee.
Zvino wakati areva izvi akaenda, akanodana Maria munin'ina wake pachivande, akati: Mudzidzisi wasvika, anokudana.
29 When that woman heard, she rises quickly, and comes to him.
Iye wakati achingozvinzwa, akakurumidza kusimuka akaenda kwaari.
30 (Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.)
Zvino Jesu wakange asati asvika pamusha, asi wakange achiri panzvimbo Marita paakamuchingamidza.
31 The Jews therefore being with her in the house and consoling her, having seen Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying that she was going to the sepulcher that she may weep there.
Naizvozvo VaJudha vakange vanaye mumba vachimunyaradza, vakati vachiona Maria kuti wakasimuka nekukurumidza achibuda, vakamutevera vachiti: Anoenda kuguva kuti acheme ikoko.
32 Therefore when Mary came where Jesus was, after seeing him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou were here, my brother would not have died.
Zvino Maria, wakati achisvika pakange pana Jesu, achimuona, akawira patsoka dzake, achiti kwaari: Ishe, dai maiva pano, hanzvadzi yangu ingadai isina kufa.
33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews who gathered with her, weeping, he groaned in the spirit, and was himself troubled.
Naizvozvo Jesu wakati achimuona achichema, VaJudhawo vachichema vakange vauya naye, akagomera mumweya, akazvitambudza,
34 And he said, Where have ye laid him? They said to him, Lord, come and see.
akati: Mamuradzikepi? Vakati kwaari: Ishe, uyai muone.
35 Jesus wept.
Jesu akachema misodzi.
36 The Jews therefore said, Behold how he loved him.
Zvino VaJudha vakati: Tarirai kuti waimuda sei.
37 But some of them said, This man who opened the eyes of the blind man, was he not also able to cause that this man also would not die?
Asi vamwe vavo vakati: Uyu wakasvinudza meso ebofu, haagoni kuita here kuti uyuwo asafa?
38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself comes to the sepulcher. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
Naizvozvo Jesu wakagomerazve mukati make asvika paguva. Zvino raiva bako, nebwe rakange rakaradzikwa pamusoro paro.
39 Jesus says, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of the man who came to end, says to him, Lord, he smells now, for it is the fourth day.
Jesu akati: Bvisai ibwe. Marita hanzvadzi yewakafa akati kwaari: Ishe, wotonhuhwa; nokuti ane mazuva mana.
40 Jesus says to her, Did I not to say thee, that if thou believed, thou will see the glory of God?
Jesu akati kwaari: Handina kutaura here kwauri, kuti kana ukatenda, uchaona kubwinya kwaMwari?
41 So they took away the stone where the man who died was laying. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou heard me.
Naizvozvo vakabvisa ibwe, pakange paradzikwa wakafa. Jesu ndokusimudzira meso kumusoro, ndokuti: Baba, ndinokuvongai nokuti mandinzwa.
42 And I had known that thou always hear me, but because of the multitude that stands by I spoke, so that they may believe that thou sent me.
Asi ini ndanga ndichiziva kuti munondinzwa nguva dzese; asi nekuda kwechaunga chakakomberedza ndareva, kuti vatende kuti imwi makandituma.
43 And having said these things, he cried out with a great voice, Lazarus, come out.
Zvino wakati areva izvozvi, akadanidzira nenzwi guru, akati: Razaro, buda!
44 And the man who died came forth, wrapped hands and feet with grave-clothes, and his face had been wrapped around with a face cloth. Jesus says to them, Loose him, and allow him to go.
Uyo wakange afa ndokubuda, akasungwa makumbo nemaoko nemicheka yeguva, nechiso chake chakapombwa nemucheka wekumeso. Jesu akati kwavari: Musunungurei, mumurege aende.
45 Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary, and who saw what Jesus did, believed in him.
Naizvozvo vazhinji veVaJudha, vakange vauya kuna Maria vakati vaona Jesu zvaakaita, vakatenda kwaari.
46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus did.
Asi vamwe vavo vakaenda kuVaFarisi, ndokuvaudza zvinhu Jesu zvaakange aita.
47 Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What are we doing? Because this man does many signs.
Naizvozvo vapristi vakuru neVaFarisi vakaunganidza dare remakurukota, vakati: Todini? Nokuti uyu munhu anoita zviratidzo zvizhinji.
48 If we allow him this way, all men will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and the nation.
Kana tikamurega akadaro, vese vachatenda kwaari; neVaRoma vachauya vakatora zviri zviviri nzvimbo nerudzi rwedu.
49 And a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, Ye know nothing at all,
Asi umwe wavo, Kayafasi, wakange ari mupristi mukuru gore iroro, akati kwavari: Hamuzivi chinhu imwi,
50 nor do ye consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not the whole nation should perish.
uye hamurangariri kuti zvakatinakira kuti munhu umwe afire vanhu, uye rudzi rwese rurege kuparara.
51 Now he said this not from himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation.
Asi haana kureva izvi pachake, asi zvaakange ari mupristi mukuru gore iro, wakaporofita kuti Jesu waizofira rudzi urwo,
52 And not for the nation only, but also that he might gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
uye kwete rudzi urwo rwega, asi kutiwo aunganidze vana vaMwari vakapararira vave umwe.
53 So from that day they consulted together so that they might kill him.
Zvino kubva pazuva iro vakarangana kuti vamuuraye.
54 Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but departed from there into the region near the wilderness into a city called Ephraim, and he stayed there with his disciples.
Naizvozvo Jesu haana kuzombofamba pachena pakati peVaJudha, asi wakabvapo akaenda kunyika iri pedo nerenje, kuguta rainzi Efuremu, ndokugarako nevadzidzi vake.
55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the countryside before the Passover, so that they might purify themselves.
Zvino pasika yeVaJudha yakange yaswedera; vazhinji ndokubuda mumaruwa vakakwira kuJerusarema pasika isati yasvika, kuti vazvichenure.
56 Therefore they sought Jesus, and spoke with each other as they stood in the temple, What does it seem to you? That he will, no, not come to the feast?
Naizvozvo vakatsvaka Jesu, vakataurirana vamire mutembere, vachiti: Munofungei? Kuti haangatongouyi kumutambo here?
57 Now also the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commandment, that if any man knew where he is, he should disclose it, so that they might take him.
Zvino vese vapristi vakuru neVaFarisi vakange vapa murairo kuti kana kune anoziva kwaari, azivise, kuti vamubate.
