John 11
1 A man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany with his sisters Mary and Martha.
Mbe munu umwi lisina lyaye Lazaro aliga alwaye. Asokele Bethania, mu musi gunu Mariamu no muyala wejabho Martha.
2 Mary was the one who had anointed the Lord with perfume and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.
Aliga ni Mariamu uliya oyo abhambagile Lata bhugenyi Marhamu namukubhula ebhigele byaye kwa jifwili jaye, unu omundulume waye Lazaro aliga alwaye.
3 So the sisters sent a message to Jesus: “Lord, your close friend is sick.”
Mbe abhasubhati bhanu nibhasila obhulagile ku Yesu nibhaika ati,” Latabhugenyi, lola uliya umwendele alwaye.
4 When Jesus heard the news he said, “The end result of this sickness will not be death. Through this God's glory will be revealed so that the Son of God may be glorified.”
Yesu ajile ogwa naika ati, Obhulwaye bhunu bhutali bwa kumwita, nawe, kulwalikusho lya Nyamuanga, omwana wa Nyamuanga abhone okukusibwa kubwo bhulwaye.”
5 Even though Jesus loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus,
Yesu amwendele Martha no muyala wejabho na Lazaro.
6 and had heard that Lazarus was sick, he remained where he was for two more days.
Ajile ongwa ati Lazaro ni mulwaye. Yesu nosayo siku ebhili anu aliga.
7 Then he told the disciples, “Let's return to Judea.”
Nuwo kulinu nabwila abheigisibwa bhaye ati,” chisubheyo Uyahudi lindi.”
8 The disciples replied, “Rabbi, just a few days ago the Jews were trying to stone you. Do you really want to go back there now?”
Abheigisibwa nibhamubwila ati,”Rabi, Wayahudi bhaliga nibhayenja okukulasa amabhui ko wenda okusubheyo lindi.
9 “Aren't there twelve hours in a day?” Jesus replied.
Yesu nasubya ati, “jisaa ja mu musi jitali ekumina na kabhili? Omunu akalibhata mu mwisi atakutula okwikujulaoku okubha kalola obwelu bwa mu mwisi.
10 “If you walk during the day you don't stumble because you can see where you're going by the light of this world. But if you walk during the night you stumble because you have no light.”
Nolwo kutyo akabha nalibhata mungeta kekujula okubha obwelu bhutalimo mukatungilwe kaye.”
11 After telling them this, he said, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I'm going to go there and wake him up!”
Yesu naika ati emisango jinu, nabhabwila ati,”Omusani weswe Lazaro aongeye, nawe enigenda koleleki nibhone okumulafya okusoka mu ntilo.”
12 The disciples said, “Lord, if he's sleeping then he'll get better.”
Nuwo abheigisibwa bhaye nibhamubwila ati, Lata bhugenyi, alabha aongeye, kaja okulafya.
13 Jesus had been referring to the death of Lazarus, but the disciples thought he meant actual sleep.
Omwanya gunu Yesu aikile ku kufwa kwa Lazaro, nawe abhene nibheganilisha ati kaika ingulu wo kuongela kwa ntilo.
14 So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead.
Nuwo Yesu naika nabho bwelu bwlu,”Lazaro afuye.
15 For your sake I'm glad I wasn't there, because now you will be able to trust in me. Let's go and see him.”
Ninalikondelelwa kulwemwe, ati natabheyeo celiya koleleki mubhone okwikwilisha. Chigende mumwene.”
16 Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow-disciples, “Let's go too so we can die with him.”
Mbe Tomaso, oyo katogwa amalongo, nabhabwila abheigisibwa bhejabho ati neswe chigende chifwe amwi na Yesu.”
17 When he arrived, Jesus learned that Lazarus had been in the tomb for four days.
Omwanya Yesu ejile, asangile Lazaro abheye mufwa siku ena.
18 Bethany was just two miles from Jerusalem,
Bethania yaliga yei na Yerusalemu sitandio makumi gana netanu kutyo.
19 and many Jews had come to console Mary and Martha at the loss of their brother.
Abhafu agati ya Bhayaudi bhejile ku Martha na Mariamu okubhasilisha kulwo mundulume webwe.
20 When Martha found out that Jesus was coming, she went to meet him, but Mary stayed at home.
Nuwo Martha ejileongwa ati Yesu kaja, nagenda okumulamila, nawe Mariamu nasigala eyanjile munyumba.
21 Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you'd been here, my brother wouldn't have died.
Mbe Martha namubwila yesu ati,”Lata bhugenyi, wakabheye olio omundulume wani atakafuye.
22 But I'm certain that even now God will give you whatever you ask.”
Nolwo woli, nimenyele okubha jone ulasabwa okusoka Kunyamuanga, kakuyana.”
23 Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise again.”
Yesu namubwila ati, omundulume wao kasuluka lindi.”
24 “I know he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day,” Martha answered.
Martha namubwila ati, nimenyele ati, alisukila kubhusoko bwo lusiku lwo bhutelo.”
25 Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who trust in me will live, even though they die.
Yesu namubwila ati,” Anye nibhusuko no bhuanga unu kekilisha akabheye afuye nolwo kutyo anobhuanga;
Noyo kekala no kunyikilisha anye atakufwa. We kilisha linu?” (aiōn g165)
27 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “I believe you are the Messiah, the Son of God, the one expected to come to this world.”
Namubwila ati,'Nikwo, Lata Bhugenyi nekilisha awe ni Kristo, omwana wa Nyamuanga, unu kaja musi.”
28 When she had said this, she went and told her sister Mary in private, “The Teacher's here, and asking to see you.”
Ejille amala okwaika linu nagenda jaye nabhilikila. omuyala wejabho Mariamu mwitebhe. Naika ati omwiigisha alyanu kakubhilikila.
29 As soon as she heard, Mary quickly got up and went to see him.
Mariamu ejile ongwa emukile bhangu, nagenda ku Yesu.
30 Jesus hadn't arrived in the village yet. He was still at the place where Martha had met him.
Yesu aliga achali kukinga mu musi, nawe aliga achali anu Martha.
31 The Jews who had been comforting Mary in the home saw how she'd got up quickly and left. So they followed her, thinking she was going to the tomb to weep there.
Mbe Abhayahudi bhaliga na Mariamu mu nyumba na bhaliya abhasilisya, bhejile bhamulola nemelegulu bhangu no kusoka anja, nibhamulubha; nibhetogela ati kagenda kufwa ajokulila eyo.
32 When Mary arrived at the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you'd been here, my brother wouldn't have died.”
Mbe mariamu ejile akinga aliya Yesu namulola, agwa asi kubhigele byeye namubwila ati,”Lata bhugenyi, wakabheye ulio omundulume wani atakafuye.”
33 When Jesus saw her crying, and the Jews who had come with her crying as well, he was very troubled and upset.
Yesu ejilia akamulola nalila, na Abhayahudi nibhaja amwi nage bhaliga nibhalila nalumwa mu mwoyo no kusulumbala;
34 “Where have you laid him?” he asked. They replied, “Lord, come and see.”
Naika ati,” Mwamuteye aki? nibhamubwila ati, Lata bhugenyi, ija ulole.”
35 Then Jesus cried too.
Yesu nalila.
36 “See how much he loved him,” the Jews said.
Mbe Abhayahudi nibhaika ati,” Lola kwoko aliga amwendele Lazaro!”
37 But some of them said, “If he could open the eyes of a blind man, couldn't he have kept Lazarus from dying?”
Nawe abhafu agati yebwe nibhaika ati,” Atali unu omunu oyo eguye ameso ga uliya oyo aliga muofu, akatulile okuingilila omunu unu atafwa?”
38 Very troubled, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a large stone placed at the entrance.
Mbe yesu, nalumwa mumutima gwaye lindi, nagenda kufwa Woli yaliga nsenga, na libhui liteyweko ingulu yaye.
39 “Remove the stone,” Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man's sister, said, “Lord, by now there will be a terrible smell, for he's been dead for four days.”
Yesu naika ati,” Mulisoshewo libhui.”Martha omuyala wejabho na Lazaro, unu afuye, namubwila Yesu ati,”Lata bhugenyi ku mwanya gunu, omubhili gwabholele, kwo kubha afuye siku ena.”
40 “Didn't I tell you that if you trusted me you would see God's glory?” Jesus replied.
Yesu namubwila ati,”Anye nitakubwiliye ati, ukekilisha, oulola likusho lya Nyamuanga?
41 So they removed the stone. Jesus looked heavenwards, and said, “Father, thank you for listening to me.
Kulwejo nasoshao libhui. Yesu nenamusha ameso gaye ingulu anaika ati,”Lata enikusima okubha wanyuguwe.
42 I know you always listen to me. I said this because of the crowd standing here so that they will believe that you sent me.”
Nimenyele ati ounyungwa kusiku, nawe kulwa likofyanya linu lisingiye koleleki naike jinu, bhabhone okwikilisha ati awe wantumele.”
43 After saying this, Jesus shouted, “Lazarus, come out!”
Ejile amala okwika kutyo, nalila kwo bhulaka bhenene,”Lazaro, soka anja!”
44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of linen, and with a cloth around his face. “Unbind him and set him free,” Jesus told them.
Omufuye nasoka anja abhoyelwe amabhoko na magulu kwo mwenda gwo kusikilwa no bhusu bwaye bhubhoyelwe nechitambala.” Yesu nabhabwila ati,”Nimumusulumule musige agende.”
45 Consequently many of the Jews who had come to comfort Mary and who saw what Jesus did put their trust in him.
Mbe Abhayahudi bhafu bhejile ku Mariamu no kumulola Yesu echoakolele, nibhamwilisha;
46 But others went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
Nawe abhandi yebwe bhagendele ku Mafalisayo nibhamubwila emisango ejoakolele Yesu.
47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the ruling council. “What shall we do?” they asked. “This man is doing many miracles.
Niwo abhakulu bha bhagabhisi na bhafalisayo nibhekumanya amwi muchilaji nibhaika ati,”chikole kutiki? omunu unu kakola ebhibhalikisho bhafu.
48 If we allow him to continue, everybody will believe in him, and then the Romans will destroy both the Temple and our status as a nation.”
Alabha chikamusiga kutyo wenyele, bhone abhamwilisha; Abhalumi bhalija okugega byona isi yeswe na liyanga lyeswe.”
49 “You don't understand anything!” said Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
Nolwo kutyo, omunu umwi mu bhona, Kayafa, aliga mugabhisi Omukulu mumwaka ogwo, nabhabwila ati, “Mutakumenya chonachona chimali.
50 “Can't you see that it's better for you that one man die for the people so that the whole nation won't be destroyed?”
Mutakwiganilisha ati kubheile kwemwe ati omunu umwi kwiile okufwa kulwa bhanu kukila liyanga lyona no kubhulao.”
51 He didn't say this on his own behalf, but as chief priest that year he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation.
Ganu atagaikile kwokubha omwene aliga mugabhisi omukulu omwaka guliya, nalagila ati Yesu kafwa kulwa liyanga;
52 And this was not just for the Jewish nation, but for all the scattered children of God so that they might be gathered together and be made into one.
Neswe kulwa liyanga Yesu abhone okubhakumanya abhana bha Nyamuanga bhanu bhanyalambukile kulakula.
53 From that time on they plotted how they might kill Jesus.
Kulwejo okusoka kulusiku olwo nokugendelela nibhalwaja okumwita Yesu.
54 So Jesus did not travel openly among the Jews but went to a town called Ephraim in the region near the desert and stayed there with his disciples.
Yesu atalibhatile lindi bwelu bwelu agati ya Bhayaudi, nawe nasokayo nagenda ku chalo chiliyei na ibhala mu mu si ngutogwa Efraimu. Hao eyanjile na bheigisibwa.
55 It was nearly time for the Jewish Passover, and many people went from the countryside to Jerusalem to purify themselves for the Passover.
Nawe Ipasaka ya Bhayaudi yaliga ayei nabhafu, nibhalinya okugenda Yerusalemu anja yo mu si ichali okubha ipasaka koleleki bhabhone okwiyesha abhene.
56 People were looking for Jesus and talking about him as they stood in the Temple. “What do you think?” they asked each other. “Isn't he coming to the festival?”
Bhaliga nibhamuyenja Yesu, nibhaikana bhuli umwi awobhaliga bhemeleguyu muyekalu, “Omwiganilisha kutiki? Ati atakuja ku malya?”
57 The chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that anyone who knew where Jesus was should report it so they could arrest him.
Omwanya gunu abhakulu bha bhagabhisi na bhafarisayo bhaliga bhasosishe obhulamusi ati alabha umwi akamenya Yesu anu ali, aiki koleleki bhabhone okumugwata.
