< John 12 >

1 Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
Mahiku mutandatu ze ikili ipasaka, uYesu ai wendile ku Bethania, kai ukoli uLazaro, nuanso nai umiukilye ku puma mu ashi.
2 There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
Ila akamuzipilililya indya nia mpindi kuko, nu Martha akamuaiilya, itungo nilanso uLazaro ai watulaa ung'wi ao nua awo nai ikie mu ndya palung'wi nu Yesu,
3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.
Hangi uMariamu akahola i ratili a manyukiilo nai azipigwe ku nadro nziza, ikete nsailo nkulu, akamupuguhila uYesu mu migulu, nu kumupyagula i migulu ku nsingi ni akwe; ito lihi likizula u unyunki nua manyunkiilo.
4 Then says one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, which should betray him,
uYuda Iskariote, ung'wi nua awo ia manyisigwa akwe, naiza yuyo nuika mugumaniilya uYesu, akaligitya.
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
Ku niki i manyunkiilo aya shanga aza aguigwe ku dinari magana ataatu nu kinkiiligwa i aula?”
6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bore what was put therein.
Nu ng'wenso ai uligitilye nanso shanga kuaisiilya aula, ila ku nsoko ai waatuilee mii; ung'wenso yuyo ai watuile uambiie i mbugulu a mpia hangi ai watuilee wiholaa ing'wi nai aiekilwe mung'wanso kunsoko akwe mukola.
7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying has she kept this.
uYesu ai uligiyilye, muleke waike nukete ku nsoko a luhiku nula uikwi nu ane.
8 For the poor always you have with you; but me you have not always.
i aula mukutula nienso mahiku ihi, kuiti shanga mukutula nu nene mahiku ihi.”
9 Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
Iti gwa i umbi ikulu ni la Ayahudi nai alijaa kulinga nia kina uYesu ukoli kuko, ni eso akapembya shanga kunsoko ang'wa Yesu duu. Ila amihenge nu Petro nai umiulilye kupuma mu ashi.
10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
Ni enso i akulu a kuhani akazipya lukani iti amubulage u Lazaro;
11 Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
ndogoelyo kunsoko ayo imakani akwe idu mu Ayahudi ai alongoe yao nu kumuhiila uYesu
12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Nu luhiku nula kabiili lakwe i umbi ikulu ai lizile mu siku kuu. Nai akija kina uYesu upembilye ku Yerusalemu,
13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that comes in the name of the Lord.
ai ahoile i ntambi nia makota a mitende nu kupuma kunzi kulongola kumusingiilya hangi akakua iyogo, “Hosiana Ukendepilwe nuanso nu pembilye ku lina nila Mukulu, Mutemi nua Israeli.”
14 And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
uYesu ai umuligilye u ng'waa ndogwe akanankila; anga uu nai ukiliseigwe.
15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, your King comes, sitting on an ass’s colt.
Leka kitumba munanso nua Sayuni; goza, uMutemi nuako upembilye, unankie ng'waa ndogwe.”
16 These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him.
Amanyisigwa akwe shanga ai amalingile imakani aya apo u ng'wandyo; kuiti uYesu nai wakakuligwa, papo nai akimbukiiye nia kina imakani aya ai ukiliseigwe nuanso nia kina itumile imakani aya kitalakwe.
17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bore record.
Uugwa idale ilo nila antu nai akoli palung'wi nu Yesu itungo nai umitangile uLazaro kupuma mu kibiila, aka kuiila ku auya.
18 For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
Hangi ai ituile ga ni kunsoko iyi kina idale nila antu ai alongoe kumusingiilya ku nsoko ai igulye kina witumile ikilingasiilyo nikanso.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive you how you prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
iAfarisayo akitambulya i enso ku enso, Goza, itungili shanga muhumile kituma kihi; goza, u unkumbigulu walongolaa kitalakwe.”
20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
Itungili ang'wi a Ayahudi ai atulaa mu kati ao mu awo nai atulaa alongoe kipolya mu siku kuu.
21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.
Awa ai amuhangile uFilipo, naiza upumiie ku Bethsaida a ku Galilaya, akamulompa aze ligitya, “Mukulu, usese kukete nsula kumihenga uYesu.”
22 Philip comes and tells Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
uFilipo akalongola akamutambuila uAndrea; uAndrea nu Filipo akalongola nu kumutambuila uYesu.
23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
uYesu aka asukiilya, Isaa apika ku nsoko a ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu ku kuligwa.
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it stays alone: but if it die, it brings forth much fruit.
Huiili, huiili, kumutambuila, imbeu a ngano anga ileke kugwa mi ihi nu kusha, ikiee uu ing'wene duu, ila anga ishe, ikupa nkali idu.
25 He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Nuanso nululoilwe u likalo nu lakwe ukululimilya; ila nuanso nu lubipiwe u likalo nu lakwe mu unkumbigulu uwu uku uhuja ga u upanga nua kali na kali. (aiōnios g166)
26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honor.
Muntu wihi anga wanzailye unene, nu antyate, nu nene kunkoli, papo nu munyamilimo nuane nuikatula ukoli. Muntu wihi nuikanzaiilya, uTata ukumukulya.
27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I to this hour.
Itungili i nkolo ane ahusha: nu nene ndigitye uli? 'Tata, ungune mu saa iyi” kuiti ingi ku isigo ili nimipikiie i saa iyi.
28 Father, glorify your name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
Tata, ulikulye i lina ni lako.” Uugwa luli lukaza nu kuligitya “Nalikulyaa nu nene kulikulya hangi.”
29 The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spoke to him.
Ila ianza nai limikile pakupi ni enso akija, akaligitya nia kina yatula nu mulilo, Auya ai aligitilye, “Malaika witambuuye nu ng'wenso.”
30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
uYesu akasukiilya nu kuligitya, Luli ulu shanga luzile ku nsoko ane, ila kunsoko anyu.
31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
Itungili ulamulwa nua unkumbigulu uwu ukoli; Itungili u mukulu nua unkumbigulu uwu ukugung'wa kunzi.
32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to me.
Nu nene anga nyansulwe migulya ihi, kualuta ihi kitalane.”
33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
Ai wituntile nanso azelagiila ingi nshile kii nuikasha.
34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ stays for ever: and how say you, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
Ianza likasukiilya, “Usese kigulye mi lagiilyo nia kina uKristo ukikie i kali na kali. Nu ewe kuligitya uli, 'Ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu kusinja wanyansulwe migulya'? uyu u ng'wana nua muntu ingi nyenyu?” (aiōn g165)
35 Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness come on you: for he that walks in darkness knows not where he goes.
Ila uYesu aka atambuila, “Welu ukoli palung'wi nu nyenye itungo iniino. Longoli nsoko mukete u welu, iti kina i kiti kileke kumuhumiilya. Nuanso nui longolaa mukiti shanga ulingile kulongoe.
36 While you have light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things spoke Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
Mukili mukete u welu.” uYesu ai umaligitilye ni hangi akalongola yakwe akipiha aleke kumihenga.
37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
Ga ni iti uYesu aiwitumile ilingasiilyo idu kinya nianso ntongeela ao, akili shanga akahuiila.
38 That the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
iti lipikiile ikani ni lang'wa Isaya, nai uligitilye; “Mukulu, ingi nyenyu nai uhuiie inkani yitu? Nu mukono nua Mukulu ukunukuiwe nyenyu?”
39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Isaiah said again,
Yiyo nsoko ni anso shanga ai ahuiie, ndogoelyo uIsaya ai uligitilye hangi,
40 He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
“Uapokuuye imiho, nu kuitenda nkaku i nkolo ni ao; aleke kihenga ku miho ao nu kulinga ku nkolo ni ao, nu kugunika nu nene nikaanguna.”
41 These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
uIsaya ai uligitilye imakani nanso kunsoko ai wihengile ikulyo nilang'wa Yesu nu kuligitya inkani niakwe.
42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
Ga ni iti, ga i akulu idu ai amuhuiie uYesu; kuiti ku nsoko iAfarisayo, shanga ai alapile iti aleke kubagulwa ni Itekeelo.
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
Ai iloile ikulyo ni ana adamu kukila ikulyo nilipembeeye kung'wa Itungo.
44 Jesus cried and said, He that believes on me, believes not on me, but on him that sent me.
uYesu akanyansula ululi nu kuligitya, “Nuanso nunihuiie unene, shanga unihuiie unene duu ila nu ng'wenso nai undagiiye unene,
45 And he that sees me sees him that sent me.
nuanso nunihengile unene umihengile nuanso nai undagiiye.
46 I am come a light into the world, that whoever believes on me should not abide in darkness.
Unene nzile anga welu mu unkumbigulu iti kila muntu nu nihuiie unene waleke kikie mu kiti.
47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Anga itule umuntu wihi ukija imakani ane kuiti waleke kumaamba, unene shanga kumulamula; ndogoelyo shanga ainzile iti nu ulamule u unkumbigulu, ila nuugune u unkumbigulu.
48 He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
Nuanso nui nihitaa unene hangi shanga wimagombaa imakani ane, ukete nui mulamulaa; lukani nulanso ni nululigitilye lulo nulikamulamula uluhiku nula mpelo.
49 For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
Ndogoelyo unene shanga ai ndigitilye ku umi nuane du. Ila ingi Tata nai untwae, ng'wenso mukola ai undagiiye ni nikamatambula nu kumaligitya.
50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatever I speak therefore, even as the Father said to me, so I speak. (aiōnios g166)
Nu nene ningile nia kina ilagiilyo nilakwe ingi upanga nua kali na kali; ila nanso nikuligitya unene - anga uTata nai umbiie, uu gwa kulingitya kitalao.” (aiōnios g166)
