John 11
1 And a certaine man was sicke, named Lazarus of Bethania, the towne of Marie, and her sister Martha.
Linu mukwame zumwi yabali kusumpwa chezina lya Lazaro yabali kulwala. yaba kuzwa mwa Betenia, mumunzi mwabali kwikala Maria ni mukulwe Mareta.
2 (And it was that Mary which anointed the Lord with oyntment, and wiped his feete with her heare, whose brother Lazarus was sicke.)
nji Maria yaba singi Simwine mafuta esende ni kumupemula kumatende ninsuki zakwe, imi Lazaro yabali kulwala ibala nchizyakwe.
3 Therefore his sisters sent vnto him, saying, Lord, beholde, he whome thou louest, is sicke.
Linu banchizyakwe nichibatumina iñusa kwa Jesu, nibacho, “Simwine, bone, iye yosaka ahulu ulwala.”
4 When Iesus heard it, he saide, This sickenes is not vnto death, but for the glorie of God, that the Sonne of God might be glorified thereby.
Linu Jesu hazuwa bulyo, nati, Uku kulwala kahena kufwa, kono bwakubonisa maata a Simwine chobulyo nimwana wa Ireeza uswanela kulumbekwa kachibatendahali.”
5 Nowe Iesus loued Martha and her sister, and Lazarus.
Linu Jesu abali kusaka ahulu Mareta ni mwanchakwe ni Lazaro bulyo.
6 And after he had heard that he was sicke, yet abode hee two dayes still in the same place where he was.
Chobulyo hazuwa kulwala kwa Lazaro, Jesu abekali mazuba amwi obele muchibaka mwabekele.
7 Then after that, said he to his disciples, Let vs goe into Iudea againe.
Linu hakumana bulyo, Chowamba kuba rutwana bakwe, “Twende tuye kwa Judea hape.”
8 The disciples saide vnto him, Master, the Iewes lately sought to stone thee, and doest thou goe thither againe?
Barutwana chibawamba kwali, “Muruti, munako inu Majuda basaka kukugobola nimabwe, linu iwe usaka kubola kwateni hape?”
9 Iesus answered, Are there not twelue houres in the day? If a man walke in the day, hee stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
Jesu nichati, kahena kuti inhola zitenda ikumi ni obele eseli mwizuba? Linu zumwi muntu hayenda musihali, keti aholofale kapa kusitatala kakuti ubwene mwahitite cha liseli lyefasi.
10 But if a man walke in the night, hee stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
Nihakuba bulyo, hayenda masiku, mwasitatale kakuli iseli kalina mwali.”
11 These things spake he, and after, he said vnto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth: but I goe to wake him vp.
Nichawamba izi zintu, linu hamana izo zintu, nichabawambila, “Mulikanetu Lazaro chalala, kono nikaya ili kuti nikamubuse.”
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleepe, he shalbe safe.
Barutwana linu chibawamba kwali, “Simwine, haiba ulele, mwabe nenza.”
13 Howbeit, Iesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the naturall sleepe.
Linu Jesu chabataluseza kuamana niifu, Chobulyo abo babali kuhupula kuti uwamba iñonzi zakulikatulusa.
14 Then saide Iesus vnto them plainely, Lazarus is dead.
Linu Jesu nichabataluseza, “Lazaru ufwile.
15 And I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, that ye may beleeue: but let vs go vnto him.
Nisangite, kebaka lyenu, kuti kana nibena kwateni kokuti nimubazumini. Twende kwali.”
16 Then saide Thomas (which is called Didymus) vnto his felow disciples, Let vs also goe, that we may die with him.
Tomasi yaba kunsumpwa Didima, chawamba ku Barutwana, “Tuyende naswe tukafwe ni Jesu.”
17 Then came Iesus, and found that he had lien in the graue foure dayes alreadie.
Linu Jesu hakeza, neza kuwana kuti Lazaro chowina kale mwikumbu chamazuba onee.
18 (Nowe Bethania was neere vnto Hierusalem, about fifteene furlongs off.)
Linu Betania ibena hembali ni Jerusalema, kazibima zotatwe.
19 And many of ye Iewes were come to Martha and Marie to comfort them for their brother.
Bungi bwa Majuda babali kwiza kwa Mareta ni Maria, kubaombaomba kuamana ni nchinzabo.
20 Then Martha, when shee heard that Iesus was comming, went to meete him: but Mary sate still in the house.
Linu Mareta, hazuwa kuti Jesu ukezite, nichibaka mukatanyeza, cobulyo Maria abekele munzubo.
21 Then said Martha vnto Iesus, Lord, if thou hadst bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Mareta linu chawambila Jesu, “Nfumwangu, kapa kobena kunu, nchizyangu nasena bafwi.
22 But now I know also, that whatsoeuer thou askest of God, God will giue it thee.
Nangati hanu, nizi kuti chimwi nichimwi chokumbila kwa Ireeza, mwakuhe.”
23 Iesus said vnto her, Thy brother shall rise againe.
Jesu chawamba kwali, “Nchizyako mwabuke hape.”
24 Martha said vnto him, I know that he shall rise againe in the resurrection at the last day.
Mareta chawamba kwali, “Nizi kuti mwabuke hape he henzuho luzuba lwamamani mani.”
25 Iesus saide vnto her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that beleeueth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he liue.
Jesu chawamba kwali, “Njeme ni nzuho ni buhalo; yense yozumina kwangu, niha fwa, mwa hale;
chobulyo yense yohala ni kuzumina kwangu keti nafwe. Na muzumina iyi ndaba?” (aiōn g165)
27 She said vnto him, Yea, Lord, I beleeue that thou art that Christ that Sonne of God, which should come into the world.
Nichawamba kwali, “Ee, Nfumwangu, nizumina kuti njewe Kreste, mwana we Ireeza, yokezite mwi nkanda.”
28 And when she had so saide, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
Hamana kuwamba izi, chozwa mwateni nikusumpa mwanchakwe Maria kakuli ungula. chamuwambila, “Muruti chasika mi ukusumpa.”
29 And when she heard it, shee arose quickly, and came vnto him.
Linu hazuwa bulyo, chonyamuka kapili nikuya kwali.
30 For Iesus was not yet come into the towne, but was in the place where Martha met him.
Linu Jesu kanabeni kusika mumunzi abali kusina kuchibaka kwaba kamukatanyezi Mareta.
31 The Iewes then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they sawe Marie, that she rose vp hastily, and went out, folowed her, saying, She goeth vnto the graue, to weepe there.
Imi Majuda, babena naye mwinzubo babali kumuomba omba nibabona Maria hanyamuka kapili pili kuzwila hanze, chiba mwichilila, kuhupula kuti chokaya kwikumbu aka siliseze kwateni.
32 Then when Mary was come where Iesus was, and sawe him, she fell downe at his feete, saying vnto him, Lord, if thou haddest bene here, my brother had not bene dead.
Linu Maria, hakeza kwabekele Jesu imi namubona, chowila hamatende akwe ni kumuwambila, “Simwine, kapa kobena kunu, nchinzyangu nasena abafwi,”
33 When Iesus therefore saw her weepe, and the Iewes also weepe which came with her, hee groned in the spirit, and was troubled in himselfe,
Linu Jesu chamubona nasilisa, imi ni Mujuda wakeza naye chokwete usilisa,
34 And saide, Where haue ye layde him? They said vnto him, Lord, come and see.
chabahinditwe muluhuho lwakwe mi abali kubilela; chawamba, “Mubamulaziki kuhi?” Niba mwitaba, “Nfumwangu, wize zo bone.”
35 And Iesus wept.
Jesu nasilisa.
36 Then saide the Iewes, Beholde, how he loued him.
Linu Majuda cibawamba, Mubone mwaba kusakila Lazaru!”
37 And some of them saide, Coulde not he, which opened the eyes of the blinde, haue made also, that this man should not haue died?
Imi bamwi chibawamba, “Kanjiyena uzu mukwame, yabeyaluli menso amukwame wamuhofu, hape ibaleti kuti uzu mukwame kuti afwe?”
38 Iesus therefore againe groned in himselfe, and came to the graue. And it was a caue, and a stone was layde vpon it.
Linu Jesu hape, nalizuwa kutomoha inkulo hape, nayenda kwikumbu. linu chibali ilindi, imi ibwe libatulitwe hateni.
39 Iesus saide, Take ye away the stone. Martha the sister of him that was dead, said vnto him, Lord, he stinketh alreadie: for he hath bene dead foure dayes.
Jesu nati, “Muzwise hateni ibwe.” Mareta, nchinzye wa Lazaro, iye yofwile, nawambila Jesu, “Nfumwangu, cheinu inako chitupu chichinunka, kakuti chikwahinda mazuba onee kuzwa habafwili.”
40 Iesus saide vnto her, Saide I not vnto thee, that if thou diddest beleeue, thou shouldest see the glorie of God?
Linu Jesu nati kwali, Naa kana nibakuwambili kuti, heba uzumina, mokabone mubuso wa Ireeza?”
41 Then they tooke away the stone from the place where the dead was layde. And Iesus lift vp his eyes, and saide, Father, I thanke thee, because thou hast heard me.
Linu chibazwisa ibwe hekumbu. Jesu nakatula menso akwe kulola kwiulu imi nati, “Tate, Nilitumela kakuti wateka kwangu.
42 I knowe that thou hearest me alwayes, but because of the people that stand by, I said it, that they may beleeue, that thou hast sent me.
Nizi kuti utekanga kwangu inako yonse, kono niwamba bulyo kebaka lyekunga linizimbulukite kunibika mukati, ili kuti bazumine kuti ubanitumi.”
43 As hee had spoken these things, hee cried with a loude voyce, Lazarus, come foorth.
Chobulyo nawamba buti, nahuweleza chalizwi lizuweka ahulu, “Lazaro, wize hanze!”
44 Then he that was dead, came forth, bound hande and foote with bandes, and his face was bound with a napkin. Iesus said vnto them, Loose him, and let him goe.
Mukwame yabafwile nazwa mwikumbu; matende akwe nimayanza abali kuzingeletwe masila. Jesu nawamba kubali, “Mumusumunune imi mumusiye ayende.”
45 Then many of the Iewes, which came to Mary, and had seene the thinges, which Iesus did, beleeued in him.
Linu bungi bwa Majuda babakezi kwa Maria imi nibabona zabatendi Jesu, niba zumina kwali,
46 But some of them went their way to the Pharises, and told them what things Iesus had done.
kono bamwi mukati kabo chibayenda ku Bafalisi imi chibakawamba zabatendi Jesu.
47 Then gathered the hie Priests, and the Pharises a councill, and said, What shall we doe? For this man doeth many miracles.
Cwale mapurita bakulwana ni Bafalisi chibakopanya inkuta hamwina imi nibawamba, “Mutupange chihi? Uzu mukwame upanga imakazo zingi.
48 If we let him thus alone, all men will beleeue in him, and the Romanes will come and take away both our place, and the nation.
heba mutumusiye yenke sina buti, bonse mubazumine kwali; Maroma mubatunyange minzi yetu yonse ni nkanda yetu.”
49 Then one of them named Caiaphas, which was the hie Priest that same yere, said vnto them, Ye perceiue nothing at all,
Nihakuba bulyo, zumwi mukwame mukati kabo, Kayafa, yabali muprisita mukulwana mwecho chilimo, nati kubali, “Kakwina chimwizi.
50 Nor yet doe you consider that it is expedient for vs, that one man die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.
Kamubwene kuti kulotu nibutuka kuti mukwame yenke afwile chichaba kundeye kuti inkanda yonse imaniswe.”
51 This spake hee not of himselfe: but being hie Priest that same yere, he prophecied that Iesus should die for that nation:
Lyahanu izi zawamba kazizwi kwali mwine. kono, kakuti abali muprisita mukulwana icho chilimo, aba polofiti kuti Jesu mwafwile inkanda;
52 And not for that nation onely, but that he shoulde gather together in one the children of God, which were scattered.
kono isini inkanda bulyo imi kono kuti bana ba Ireeza bahasene bekale hamwina kalusika lonke.
53 Then from that day foorth they consulted together, to put him to death.
Linu kuzwa ulo luzuba niba zuminzana mwete behaile Jesu.
54 Iesus therefore walked no more openly among the Iewes, but went thence vnto a countrey neere to the wildernes, into a citie called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
Kelyo ibaka Jesu nasiya kuyenda mukati ka Majuda nibamubwene, imi chozwa mweyo inkanda nikuya mwihalaupa mumuleneñi wa Efraimi. Uko abakekali ni barutwana.
55 And the Iewes Passeouer was at hande, and many went out of the countrey vp to Hierusalem before the Passeouer, to purifie themselues.
Lyahanu i Paseka ya Majuda chibena hafuhi, imi bungi bwabo nibaya mwa Jerusalema kuzwa mwinkanda i Paseka niseni kusika kuti bakalijoloze abo bene.
56 Then sought they for Iesus, and spake among themselues, as they stoode in the Temple, What thinke ye, that he cometh not to the feast?
Babali kukabulola Jesu, imi nibena mwi Tempele nibakwete balibuza buza, “Muhupula bule? Na sanzi akezi kumukiti?”
57 Now both the high Priestes and the Pharises had giuen a commandement, that if any man knew where he were, he should shew it, that they might take him.
Linu muprisita mukulwana ni Bafalisi niba hewa mulao kuti haiba kwina yowizi kwena Jesu, uswanela kuwamba ili kuti bamukwate.
