< John 13 >

1 Before the feast day of the Passover, Jesus knew that the hour was approaching when he would pass from this world to the Father. And since he had always loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
Yoom khotue hlanah he diklai lamkah Pa taengla a thoeih ham tue te ham pha coeng tila Jesuh loh a ming. Te dongah diklai ah a lungnah rhoek te a bawt due a lungnah.
2 And when the meal had taken place, when the devil had now put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,
Hlaembuh a vael uh vaengah amah aka voei ham Simon capa Judas Iskariot loh a thinko ah rhaithae a khueh coeng.
3 knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands and that he came from God and was going to God,
Pa loh Jesuh amah kut ah boeih a paek tih Pathen taeng lamkah aka thoeng te Pathen taengla cet tila a ming.
4 he rose up from the meal, and he set aside his vestments, and when he had received a towel, he wrapped it around himself.
Buhkung lamkah a thoh neh a himbai a dul. Te phoeiah rhawnawn a loh tih a vaep.
5 Next he put water into a shallow bowl, and he began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel with which he was wrapped.
Baeldung dongah tui a loei tih hnukbang rhoek kah kho te koe a silh. Te phoeiah a vaep tangtae la aka om rhawnawn neh a huih pah.
6 And then he came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to him, “Lord, would you wash my feet?”
Simon Peter taengah a pha vaengah amah te, “Boeipa, nang loh kai kho na sil aya?” a ti nah.
7 Jesus responded and said to him: “What I am doing, you do not now understand. But you shall understand it afterward.”
Jesuh loh anih te a doo tih, “Ka saii he nang loh tahae ah na ming pawt dae tahae lamkah phoeiah na ming bitni,” a ti nah.
8 Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you will have no place with me.” (aiōn g165)
Peter loh, “Ka kho he a voelvai ah sil loengloeng boeh,” a ti nah. Jesuh loh, “Nang kan sil pawt koinih kai taengah benbo benpang la na om mahpawh,” a ti nah. (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter said to him, “Then Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!”
Amah te Simon Peter loh, “Boeipa, ka kho bueng pawt tih ka kut neh ka lu khawm ta,” a ti nah.
10 Jesus said to him: “He who is washed need only wash his feet, and then he will be entirely clean. And you are clean, but not all.”
Jesuh loh anih taengah, “Tui aka hlu tah a caih la boeih om tih a kho silh ham bueng pawt atah a tloe silh ngoe pawh. Te phoeiah nangmih tah a caih la na om uh dae boeih na cim uh moenih,” a ti nah.
11 For he knew which one would betray him. For this reason, he said, “You are not all clean.”
Amah aka voei te a ming coeng. Te dongah, “A caih la boeih na om uh pawh,” a ti nah.
12 And so, after he washed their feet and received his vestments, when he had sat down at table again, he said to them: “Do you know what I have done for you?
Amih kah kho te a silh phoeiah a himbai te a loh tih koep ngol. Te vaengah amih te, “Nangmih ham ka saii te na ming uh a?
13 You call me Teacher and Lord, and you speak well: for so I am.
Nangmih loh kai he saya neh boeipa la nan khue uh dae ka om van dongah balh na thui uh.
14 Therefore, if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash the feet of one another.
Te dongah kai boeipa neh saya loh nangmih kah kho te ka silh atah nangmih khaw khat neh khat kah kho te na silh uh ham a kuek.
15 For I have given you an example, so that just as I have done for you, so also should you do.
Kai loh nangmih taengah ka saii bangla nangmih long khaw saii uh tila moeiboe pakhat nangmih kan paek coeng.
16 Amen, amen, I say to you, the servant is not greater than his Lord, and the apostle is not greater than he who sent him.
Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, sal tah a boei lakah tanglue la, caeltueih khaw amah aka tueih lakah tanglue la a om moenih.
17 If you understand this, you shall be blessed if you will do it.
He he na ming uh tih te rhoek te na vai uh atah yoethen la na om uh coeng.
18 I am not speaking about all of you. I know those whom I have chosen. But this is so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me shall lift up his heel against me.’
Nangmih boeih ham ka thui moenih a? Kamah loh ka tuek te ka ming. Tedae cacim te tah soep mai saeh. Ka buh aka ca loh kai taengah a khodil a taloeh coeng.
19 And I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it has happened, you may believe that I am.
A om hlanah nangmih kan ti nah coeng. Te daengah ni a om vaengah kai ni tila nan tangnah uh eh.
20 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives anyone whom I send, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives him who sent me.”
Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, khat khat ka tueih te aka doe long tah kai ni n'doe. Kai aka doe long khaw kai aka tueih te a doe,” a ti nah.
21 When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit. And he bore witness by saying: “Amen, amen, I say to you, that one among you shall betray me.”
Hekah he Jesuh loh a thui vaengah mueihla hinghuen doela a phong tih, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui nangmih khuikah pakhat loh kai m'voeih ni,” a ti.
22 Therefore, the disciples looked around at one another, uncertain about whom he spoke.
U a thui khaw hnukbang rhoek tah ingang uh tih khat khat ah so uh thae.
23 And leaning against the bosom of Jesus was one of his disciples, the one whom Jesus loved.
A hnukbang rhoek khuikah pakhat tah Jesuh kah rhang dongah om tih a vael. Anih te Jesuh loh a lungnah.
24 Therefore, Simon Peter motioned to this one and said to him, “Who is it that he is speaking about?”
Anih te Simon Peter loh a mikhip tih, “A thui te u lam nim a pawk ve,” a ti nah.
25 And so, leaning against the chest of Jesus, he said to him, “Lord, who is it?”
Te phoeiah anih te Jesuh kah rhang dongah hangdang tangloeng tih, “Boeipa, unim?” a ti nah.
26 Jesus responded, “It is he to whom I shall extend the dipped bread.” And when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon.
Jesuh loh, “Anih tah kamat ka nuem vetih amah taengah ka paek ni,” a ti nah. Te dongah kamat te a nuem phoeiah a loh tih Simon capa Judas Iskariot te a paek.
27 And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.”
Kamat nen mah anih te Satan loh a kun thil coeng. Te dongah Jesuh loh anih te, “Na saii te hat saii to,” a ti nah.
28 Now none of those sitting at table knew why he had said this to him.
A taengah a thui te aka vael rhoek loh ming pawh.
29 For some were thinking that, because Judas held the purse, that Jesus had told him, “Buy those things which are needed by us for the feast day,” or that he might give something to the needy.
A ngen loh tangkacun te Judas loh a khoem dongah khotue ham a ngoe koi te lai ham neh khodaeng rhoek te khat khat paek ham te Jesuh loh anih a ti nah tila a poek uh.
30 Therefore, having accepted the morsel, he went out immediately. And it was night.
Te dongah anih loh vaidam kamat te a doe tih pahoi cet. Te vaengah khoyin la om.
31 Then, when he had gone out, Jesus said: “Now the Son of man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
A caeh tangloeng vaengah Jesuh loh, “Tahae ah hlang capa tah a thangpom vetih Pathen tah anih ah a thangpom ni.
32 If God has been glorified in him, then God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him without delay.
Pathen te anih ah a thangpom atah Pathen long khaw amah dongah anih a thangpom ni. Te vaengah anih te tlek a thangpom ni.
33 Little sons, for a brief while, I am with you. You shall seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you are not able to go,’ so also I say to you now.
Oingaih rhoek, nangmih taengah kolkalh tah ka om pueng vetih kai nan toem uh ni. Tedae Judah rhoek taengah, ‘Ka caeh nah te nam pha ham coeng thai pawh,’ ka ti nah vanbangla nangmih taengah khaw kan thui coeng.
34 I give you a new commandment: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, so also must you love one another.
Khat neh khat lung uh thae tila nangmih olpaek a thai la kam paek. Nangmih kan lungnah vanbangla nangmih khaw khat neh khat lung uh thae ham.
35 By this, all shall recognize that you are my disciples: if you will have love for one another.”
Khat neh khat taengah lungnah na khueh uh atah te nen ni kai kah hnukbang la na om uh te boeih a ming uh eh,” a ti nah.
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus responded: “Where I am going, you are not able to follow me now. But you shall follow afterward.”
Amah te Simon Peter loh, “Boeipa, melam na caeh eh?” a ti nah. Jesuh loh, “Kai ka caeh nah te tahae ah nam vai uh thai mahpawh tedae hmailong ah nam vai uh bitni,” a ti nah.
37 Peter said to him: “Why am I unable to follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!”
Peter loh, “Boeipa, balae tih tahae ah nang kam vai uh thai pawt eh? Nang ham ka hinglu te ka voeih ni,” a ti nah.
38 Jesus answered him: “You will lay down your life for me? Amen, amen, I say to you, the rooster will not crow, until you deny me three times.”
Jesuh loh, “Kai ham na hinglu te na voeih mai ni? Nang taengah rhep rhep ka thui, kai voei thum nan hnoel hlan atah ai khong loengloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
