John 13
1 Now before the feast of the Passover, it was clear to Jesus that the time had come for him to go away from this world to the Father. Having once had love for those in the world who were his, his love for them went on to the end.
Na rĩrĩ, gwatigĩtie o hanini Gĩathĩ kĩa Bathaka gĩkinye. Jesũ nĩamenyete atĩ ihinda rĩake rĩa kuuma gũkũ thĩ athiĩ kũrĩ Ithe nĩrĩakinyĩte. Na tondũ nĩendete arĩa maarĩ ake gũkũ thĩ, akĩmoonia ũrĩa aamendete nginya kĩrĩkĩrĩro.
2 So while a meal was going on, the Evil One having now put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to be false to him,
Na rĩrĩa maarĩĩaga irio cia hwaĩ-inĩ, Mũcukani nĩarĩkĩtie gwĩkĩra ngoro-inĩ ya Judasi Isikariota, mũrũ wa Simoni, meciiria ma gũkunyanĩra Jesũ,
3 Jesus, being conscious that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,
Jesũ nĩamenyete atĩ Ithe nĩamũheete ũhoti wa maũndũ mothe, na atĩ oimĩte kũrĩ Ngai, na acookaga kũrĩ o Ngai;
4 Got up from table, put off his robe and took a cloth and put it round him.
nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jesũ agĩũkĩra, akiuma hau maarĩĩagĩra, akĩruta nguo yake ya igũrũ, akĩoya taurũ, akĩĩoha njohero.
5 Then he put water into a basin and was washing the feet of the disciples and drying them with the cloth which was round him.
Thuutha wa ũguo, agĩitĩrĩra maaĩ kĩraĩ-inĩ na akĩambĩrĩria gũthambia arutwo ake nyarĩrĩ, akĩmagiragia na taurũ ĩyo eyohete njohero.
6 So he came to Simon Peter. Peter said, Lord, are my feet to be washed by you?
Na aakinya harĩ Simoni Petero, Petero akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Hĩ, Mwathani, wee nĩwe ũgũũthambia nyarĩrĩ?”
7 And Jesus, answering, said to him, What I do is not clear to you now, but it will be clear to you in time to come.
Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndũngĩmenya ũrĩa ndĩreka rĩu, no thuutha-inĩ nĩũrĩmenya.”
8 Peter said, I will never let my feet be washed by you, never. Jesus said in answer, If I do not make you clean you have no part with me. (aiōn g165)
Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Aca, wee ndũrĩ hĩndĩ ũngĩthambia nyarĩrĩ ciakwa.” Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Itangĩgũthambia, ndũngĩgĩa ngwatanĩro na niĩ.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter said to him, Lord, not my feet only, but my hands and my head.
Simoni Petero akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ndũgaathambie o nyarĩrĩ ciiki, no gĩĩthambie moko o na mũtwe!”
10 Jesus said to him, He who is bathed has need only to have his feet washed and then he is clean all over: and you, my disciples, are clean, but not all of you.
Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ wĩthambĩte mwĩrĩ abatairio nĩ gwĩthamba o nyarĩrĩ ciiki; mwĩrĩ wake wothe nĩ mũtheru. Na inyuĩ mũrĩ atheru, o na gũtuĩka ti inyuothe.”
11 (He had knowledge who was false to him; that is why he said, You are not all clean.)
Nĩgũkorwo nĩamenyete ũrĩa ũkaamũkunyanĩra, na nĩkĩo oigire atĩ ti othe maarĩ atheru.
12 Then, after washing their feet and putting on his robe again, he took his seat and said to them, Do you see what I have done to you?
Aarĩkia kũmathambia nyarĩrĩ, akĩĩhumba nguo yake ya igũrũ, na agĩcooka harĩa aikarĩte. Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwataũkĩrwo nĩ ũguo ndamwĩka?
13 You give me the name of Master and Lord: and you are right; that is what I am.
Mũnjĩtaga ‘Mũrutani’ na ‘Mwathani’, na ũguo nĩguo kũrĩ, nĩgũkorwo ũguo nĩguo ndĩ.
14 If then I, the Lord and the Master, have made your feet clean, it is right for you to make one another's feet clean.
Na rĩrĩ, kuona atĩ Niĩ, Mwathani na Mũrutani wanyu, nĩndamũthambia nyarĩrĩ-rĩ, o na inyuĩ nĩmwagĩrĩirwo mũthambanagie nyarĩrĩ mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.
15 I have given you an example, so that you may do what I have done to you.
Nĩndamuonia kĩonereria nĩguo mwĩkage o ta ũguo ndamwĩka.
16 Truly I say to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; and he who is sent is not greater than the one who sent him.
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, gũtirĩ ndungata nene gũkĩra mwathi wayo, kana mũtũmwo agakĩra ũrĩa ũmũtũmĩte.
17 If these things are clear to you, happy are you if you do them.
Kuona atĩ rĩu nĩmũmenyete maũndũ maya, nĩmũrĩrathimagwo mwameka.
18 I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.
“Ndiraaria ũhoro wanyu inyuothe; nĩnjũũĩ arĩa thuurĩte. No ũhoro ũyũ nĩ wa kũhingia maandĩko marĩa moigĩte atĩrĩ, ‘O ũrĩa tũrĩĩanagĩra irio nake nĩangarũrũkĩte.’
19 From this time forward, I give you knowledge of things before they come about, so that when they come about you may have belief that I am he.
“Ndĩramwĩra maũndũ maya rĩu matanekĩka, nĩgeetha hĩndĩ ĩrĩa marĩĩkĩka mũrĩnjĩtĩkia atĩ niĩ nĩ niĩ we.
20 Truly I say to you, He who takes to his heart anyone whom I send, takes me to his heart; and he who so takes me, takes him who sent me.
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũrĩa wothe wamũkagĩra mũndũ ũrĩa ndũmĩte nĩ niĩ mwene aamũkagĩra; na ũrĩa wothe ũnyamũkagĩra, aamũkagĩra ũrĩa wandũmire.”
21 When Jesus had said this he was troubled in spirit, and gave witness, saying, Truly I say to you, that one of you will be false to me.
Jesũ aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, agĩtangĩka ngoro na akiumbũra atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũmwe wanyu nĩekũngunyanĩra.”
22 Then the eyes of the disciples were turned on one another, in doubt as to whom he had in mind.
Nao arutwo ake makĩambĩrĩria kũrorana marigĩtwo nũũ gatagatĩ-inĩ kao aaragia ũhoro wake.
23 There was at table one of his disciples, the one dear to Jesus, resting his head on Jesus' breast.
Ũmwe wao, mũrutwo ũrĩa Jesũ endete, aikarĩte thĩ etiiranĩtie na Jesũ.
24 Making a sign to him, Simon Peter said, Who is it he is talking about?
Nake Simoni Petero akĩheneria mũrutwo ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta mũũrie araaria ũhoro wa ũ.”
25 He, then, resting his head on Jesus' breast, said to him, Lord, who is it?
Nake mũrutwo ũcio, agĩĩtiirania na Jesũ na akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ũcio nũũ ũraaria ũhoro wake?”
26 This was the answer Jesus gave: It is the one to whom I will give this bit of bread after I have put it in the vessel. Then he took the bit of bread, put it into the vessel, and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
Jesũ agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũrĩa ngũhe kĩenyũ gĩkĩ kĩa mũgate ndaarĩkia gũgĩtobokia thubu-inĩ.” Na aarĩkia gũtobokia kĩenyũ kĩa mũgate thubu-inĩ, agĩkĩhe Judasi Isikariota mũrũ wa Simoni.
27 And when Judas took the bread Satan went into him. Then Jesus said to him, Do quickly what you have to do.
Judasi aarĩkia kũrĩa mũgate ũcio, Mũcukani akĩmũingĩra. Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ũkiriĩ gwĩka-rĩ, ĩka narua.”
28 Now it was not clear to anyone at table why he said this to him.
No gũtirĩ o na ũmwe warĩ metha-inĩ wataũkĩirwo nĩ gĩtũmi kĩa Jesũ kũmwĩra ũguo.
29 Some were of the opinion that because Judas kept the money-bag Jesus said to him, Get the things we have need of for the feast; or, that he was to give something to the poor.
Na tondũ Judasi nĩwe waigaga mbeeca-rĩ, amwe magĩĩciiria Jesũ aamwĩraga agũre kĩrĩa kĩabataranĩtie nĩ ũndũ wa Gĩathĩ, kana aheane kĩndũ nĩ ũndũ wa arĩa athĩĩni.
30 So Judas, having taken the bit of bread, straight away went out: and it was night.
Nake Judasi aarĩkia kwamũkĩra mũgate ũcio, akiuma nja. Na kwarĩ ũtukũ.
31 Then when he had gone out, Jesus said, Now is glory given to the Son of man, and God is given glory in him.
Na Judasi aarĩkia gũthiĩ, Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩagoocithĩtio, nake Ngai nĩagoocithĩtio arĩ thĩinĩ wake.
32 If God is given glory in him, God will give him glory in himself, and will give him glory even now.
Angĩkorwo Ngai nĩagoocithĩtio thĩinĩ wake, Ngai nĩekũgoocithia Mũriũ arĩ thĩinĩ wake mwene, na amũgoocithie o narua.
33 My dear children, I am only to be with you a little longer. Then you will be looking for me: and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you, Where I am going you may not come.
“Ciana ciakwa, ngũkorwo na inyuĩ o gwa kahinda kanini. Nĩmũkanjaria, na o ta ũrĩa ndeerire Ayahudi, no taguo ngũmwĩra: Kũrĩa ndĩrathiĩ, inyuĩ mũtingĩhota gũũka.
34 I give you a new law: Have love one for another; even as I have had love for you, so are you to have love one for another.
“Ngũmũhe rĩathani rĩerũ: Endanagai mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ. O ta ũrĩa ndĩmwendete, o na inyuĩ no nginya mwendanage mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.
35 By this it will be clear to all men that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.
Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũrĩmenyithagia andũ othe atĩ mũrĩ arutwo akwa, mũngĩendana mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ.”
36 Simon Peter said to him, Lord, where are you going? Jesus said in answer, Where I am going you may not come with me now, but you will come later.
Simoni Petero akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani nĩ kũ ũgũthiĩ?” Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kũrĩa ngũthiĩ, mũtingĩhota kũnũmĩrĩra rĩu, no nĩmũrĩnũmĩrĩra thuutha-inĩ.”
37 Peter said to him, Why may I not come with you even now? I will give up my life for you.
Petero akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani nĩ kĩĩ kĩngĩgiria ngũrũmĩrĩre rĩu? Niĩ nĩngũruta muoyo wakwa nĩ ũndũ waku.”
38 Jesus said in answer, Will you give up your life for me? Truly I say to you, Before the cry of the cock you will have said three times that you are not my disciple.
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Atĩ no ũrute muoyo waku nĩ ũndũ wakwa? Ngũkwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ngũkũ ĩtanakũga, nĩũrĩngaana maita matatũ!
