< John 13 >

1 NOW before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
Jesu o ne a itse mo maitseboeng a tsatsi la Tlolaganyo gore ke bosigo jwa gagwe jwa bofelo mo lefatsheng pele ga a boela kwa go Rraagwe. Erile go jewa dijo tsa maitseboa Diabolo a bo a setse a feditse mogopolo wa ga Judase Isekariota, morwa Simone, gore jo ke bosigo jwa gore a dirise leano la gagwe la go oka Jesu. Jesu o ne a itse gore Rara o mo neetse sengwe le sengwe le gore o ne a tswa kwa Modimong le gore o tlaa boela kwa Modimong. Le ka fa a neng a rata barutwa ba gagwe ka teng!
2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;
4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
Mme a tswa fa lomating lwa bojelo, (tafole) a apola seaparo sa gagwe, a thathelela toulo (taole) mo lothekeng,
5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
a tshela metsi mo mogotswaneng mme a simolola a tlhapisa barutwa ba gagwe dinao a ba a di phimola ka taole e a neng a ithathile ka yone.
6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
Erile a tla fa go Simone Petere, Petere a mo raya a re, “Morena, ga o a tshwanela o ka bo o re tlhapisa dinao!”
7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
Jesu a fetola a re, “Ka nako e ga o tlhaloganye se ke se dirang, mme o tlaa tlhaloganya ka letsatsi lengwe.”
8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. (aiōn g165)
Petere a gana a re, “Nnyaa, ga o kitla o ntlhapisa dinao gope!” Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Kana fa ke sa di tlhapise, ga o kake wa nna mopati wa me.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
Simone Petere a mo raya a re, “Mme tlhapisa diatla tsa me le tlhogo, e seng dinao fela!”
10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
Jesu a fetola a re, “Yo o setseng a tlhapile mmele otlhe o tlhoka go tlhapisiwa dinao fela gore a nne phepa gotlhelele. Jaanong o phepa, mme ga go a nna jalo mo go mongwe le mongwe yo o fano.”
11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
Gonne Jesu o ne a itse gore o tlaa okwa ke mang. Ke sone se a neng a se raya fa a re, “Ga lo phepa lotlhe.”
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
Erile a sena go ba tlhapisa dinao, a apara seaparo sa gagwe gape mme a nna fa fatshe a botsa potso a re, “A lo tlhaloganya se ke neng ke se dira?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
Lo mpitsa ‘Moruti’ le ‘Morena’, mme lo dira sentle go bua jalo, gonne ke boammaaruri.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.
Mme ka nna, Morena, le Moruti, ke lo tlhapisitse dinao, lo tshwanetse go tlhapisanya dinao fela jalo.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
Ke lo neile sekai se lo tshwanetseng go se sala morago: dirang jaaka ke lo diretse.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
Go boammaaruri thata jang gore motlhanka ga a mogolo go mong wa gagwe. Le fa e le morongwa ga a mogolo go motho yo o mo romang.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
Lo itse dilo tse, jaanong di direng! Ke yone tsela ya matlhogonolo.
18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
“Ga ke lo reye lotlhe; ke itse mongwe le mongwe wa lona yo ke mo tlhophileng sentle. Lokwalo lo bua jaana lwa re, ‘Ene yo o jang dijo le nna o tlaa nkoka’ mme se ke se buang se tlaa tloga se diragala.
19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
Mme ke lo bolelela selo se jaanong jaana gore e re fa se diragala, lo dumele mo go nna.
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
“Ammaaruri, le fa e le mang yo o amogelang Morongwa wame, yo ke tlaa mo romang, o amogela nna. Mme go nkamogela ke go amogela Rara yo o nthomileng.”
21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
Mme jaanong Jesu o ne a huduegile thata mo moeng mme a re, “Ee, go boammaaruri, mongwe wa lona o tlaa nkoka.”
22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
Barutwa ba lebana, ba hakgamala gore o ka ne a raya mang.
23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.
E re ka ke ne ke ntse go bapa le Jesu fa lomating lwa bojelo (tafole) ke le tsala ya gagwe e tona thata,
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.
Simone Petere a tla kwa go nna go mpotsa gore ke mang yo o tlaa dirang tiro e e setlhogo eo ya go mo oka.
25 He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
Mme ka retologa ka mmotsa ka re, “Morena, ke mang?”
26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
A mphetola a re, “Ke yo ke mo tlotlang ka go mo neela senkgwe se innwe mo morong.” Mme erile a sena go se ina, a se inola a se neela Judase, morwa Isekariota.
27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
Mme ya re Judase a sena go se ja, Satane a tsena mo go ene. Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Itlhaganele, dira se o se ikaeletseng jaanong jaana.”
28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
Go ne go sena le fa e le ope wa ba ba fa lomating lwa bojelo yo o neng a itse se Jesu o se rayang.
29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
Bangwe ba gopola gore ka Judase e ne e le mmei wa madi a bone Jesu o ne a mmolelela gore a ye go duelela dijo kgotsa a ye go abela bahumanegi madi mangwe.
30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.
Judase a nanoga ka bofefo, a ralala lefifi.
31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
Erile fela Judase a tswa mo tlung, Jesu a re, “Lobaka lwa me lo gorogile; kgalalelo ya Modimo e tlaa tloga e ntikaganyetsa, mme Modimo o tlaa amogela kgalaletso e tona ka ntlha ya gotlhe mo go ntiragalelang.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
Mme Modimo o tlaa nnaya kgalalelo ya one, fela jaanong jaana.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
Bana ba ba rategang, kana nako e khutshwane jang pele ga gore ke tsamaye ke lo tlogele! Mme, le fa lo ka ntshenka ga lo ka ke lwa tla kwa go nna, fela jaaka ke boleletse baeteledipele ba Sejuta.
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
“Jaanong ke lo naya taolo e ncha ka re, ‘Ratanang fela jaaka ke lo ratile.’
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
Go ratana ga lona mo go kitlaneng go tlaa supegetsa lefatshe gore lo barutwa ba me.”
36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
Simone Petere a re, “Morena o ya kae?” Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Ga o ka ke wa tsamaya le nna jaanong jaana; mme e tlaa re morago, o ntatele.”
37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
Mme Simone Petere a mmotsa a re, “Mme ke kganelwa ke eng go tla jaanong jaana gonne ke ipaakanyeditse go go swela?”
38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
Jesu a araba a re, “O ntshwela? Nnyaa e tlaa re pele ga mokoko o lela gararo ka moso o tlaa bo o intatotse o re ga o nkitse.”
