John 12
1 Then Yahushua six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
Malatsi a le marataro pele ga meletlo ya Tlolaganyo e simologa, Jesu a goroga mo Bethania kwa Lasaro monna yo a mo rudisitseng a neng a le teng.
2 There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
Mme Jesu a baakanyediwa modiro wa tlotlo teng. Maratha a ba tsholela mme Lasaro ene a nna le bone kwa lomating lwa bojelo (tafole).
3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Yahushua, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
Mme Marea a tsaya setlolo se se tlhwatlhwa kgolo se dirilwe ka dinkgisamonate a tlotsa dinao tsa ga Jesu ka sone, a bo a di phimola ka moriri wa gagwe. Mme ntlo ya tlala monkgo o o monate wa setlolo.
4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,
Mme Judase Isekariota, mongwe wa barutwa ba gagwe, ene yo o tlaa mo okang, a re,
5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
“Setlolo seo se ne se lekanye madi a mantsi. Se ka bo se rekisitswe mme madi a sone a abelwa bahumanegi.”
6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
E ne e se gore ka go bua jalo o gopotse go tlhokomela bahumanegi, gonne o ne a le mmei wa madi a barutwa mme o ne a tle a a utswe a a dirise mo ditirong tsa gagwe!
7 Then said Yahushua, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Mo tlogele. O dirile jalo e le paakanyetso ya phitlho ya me.
8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.
Lo ka aga lo thusa bahumanegi, mme nna ga ke na go nna le lona ka lobaka lo loleele.”
9 Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Yahushua 's sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
Erile fa ba e leng batho fela ba Jerusalema ba utlwalela ka kgorogo ya gagwe ba itlhaganela ka bontsintsi go ya go mmona le go bona Lasaro, monna yo o rudileng.
10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;
Mme ditlhogo tsa baperesiti tsa ikaelela go bolaya le Lasaro,
11 Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Yahushua.
gonne e ne e le ka ntlha ya ga Lasaro gore baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba le bantsi ba tlogele Sejuta ba dumele mo go Jesu e le Mesia wa bone.
12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Yahushua was coming to Jerusalem,
Letsatsi le le latelang, dikgang tse di reng Jesu o mo tseleng ya Jerusalema tsa anama mo motseng, mme bontsintsi jo bogolo jwa baeti ba Tlolaganyo,
13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of Yahushua.
jwa tsaya dikala tsa makolane mme jwa fologela mo tseleng go mo kgatlhantsha ba goa ba re, “Mmoloki! Modimo segofatsa Kgosi ya Iseraele! A go bakwe moemedi wa Modimo!”
14 And Yahushua, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
Jesu a tsamaya a palame tonkana, a diragatsa seporofeso se se reng
15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
“Se boifeng Kgosi ya lona, batho ba Iseraele, gonne e tlaa tla kwa go lona ka boingotlo, e palame tonkana!”
16 These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Yahushua was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
(Barutwa ba gagwe ba seka ba lemoga ka nako eo gore se e ne e le tiragatso ya seporofeso; mme morago ga Jesu a boela kwa kgalalelong ya gagwe kwa legodimong, ba simolola go lemoga gore go setse go diragetse diporofeso di le kae tsa lokwalo mo matlhong a bone).
17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.
Mme ba ba mo bontsintsing joo ba ba neng ba bonye Jesu a tsosa Lasaro mo baswing ba ne ba bolela gotlhe ka gone.
18 For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
Ke sone se batho ba le bantsi ba neng ba ya go mo kgatlhantsha, gonne ba ne ba utlwile kgakgamatso e tona eo.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.
Mme Bafarasai ba raana ba re, “Re fentswe. Bonang, lefatshe lotlhe le mo setse morago!”
20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:
Bagerika bangwe ba ba neng ba tsile mo Jerusalema go obama mo Tlolaganyong,
21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Yahushua.
ba etela Filipo yo a neng a tswa Bethesaida, mme ba feta ba re, “Rara, re batla go rakana le Jesu.”
22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Yahushua.
Filipo a bolelela Anderea ka gone, mme ba tsamaya botlhe go kopa Jesu.
23 And Yahushua answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
Jesu a ba fetola ka gore nako e mo gorogetse ya go boela kwa kgalalelong ya gagwe kwa legodimong, le gore, “Ke tshwanetse go wa ka swa jaaka tlhaka ya mabele e e welang mo mmung wa boleme. Fa ke sa swe, ke tlaa nna ke le nosi, peo e e yosi. Mme loso lwa me lo tlaa tlhogisa ditlhaka tsa mabele di le dintsi, thobo e kgolo ya matshelo a masha.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
Fa lo rata botshelo jwa lona mono lefatsheng, bo tlaa lo latlhegela. Mme fa lo nyatsa botshelo jwa lona mono lefatsheng, o tlaa bo ananya ka kgalalelo ya bosakhutleng. (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 honour.
“Fa e le gore Bagerika ba, ba batla go nna barutwa ba me, ba boleleleng gore ba tle ba ntshale morago, gonne batlhanka ba me ba tshwanetse go nna kwa ke teng. Mme fa ba ntshala morago, Rara o tlaa ba tlotla
27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
Jaanong mowa wa me o tshwenyegile thata. A nka rapela ka re, ‘Rara, mpoloka mo go se se nkemeng pele?’ Mme ke lone lebaka le ke le tletseng!
28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
Rara, galaletsa leina la gago o bo o le tlotle.” Mme ga bua lentswe le tswa kwa legodimong le re, “Ke setse ke dirile jalo, mme ke tlaa dira jalo gape.”
29 The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
Erile fa bontsintsi jwa batho bo utlwa lentswe, bangwe ba bone ba gopola gore ke tladi, fa ba bangwe bone ba re ke moengele o buile nae.
30 Yahushua answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
Mme Jesu a ba raya a re, “Lentswe leo ga le a tla ka ntlha ya me, mme e leng ka ntlha ya lona.
31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
Lobaka lwa katlholo ya lefatshe lo gorogile, le nako ya fa Satane, Kgosana ya lefatshe leno a tlaa kgoromelediwang ntle.
32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
Mme fa ke tsholediwa (mo mokgorong) ke tlaa gogela mongwe le mongwe kwa go nna?”
33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.
O ne a bua jaana go supa ka fa o tlaa swang ka teng.
34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that the Messiah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
Bontsintsi jwa botsa jwa re, “Go swa? Re utlwile gore Mesia o tlaa tshela ka bosakhutleng mme ga a kitla a a swa. Ke eng fa o re o tlaa swa? O bua kaga. Mesia ofe?” (aiōn g165)
35 Then Yahushua said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.
Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Lesedi la me le tlaa lo phatsimela ka lobakanyana. Tsamayang mo go lone lo sa ntse lo ka kgona, mme lo ye kwa lo batlang go ya teng pele ga lefifi le tla, gonne ka nako eo lobaka lo tlaa bo lo setse lo fetile thata gore lo bone tsela ya lona.
36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Yahushua, and departed, and did hide himself from them.
Dirisang Lesedi nako e sa le teng; ka go dira jalo lo tlaa nna batsamaisi ba lesedi.” Morago ga a bua dilo tse, Jesu a tsamaya mme a ba iphitlhetse.
37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:
Mme le fa a ne a dirile dikgakgamatso tse tsotlhe, batho ba le bantsi ba ne ba sa dumele gore ke Mesia.
38 That the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, YHWH, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of YHWH been revealed?
Ke sone tota se Isaia o se porofetileng a re: “Morena, re tlaa dumelwa ke mang? E mang yo o tlaa tsayang dikgakgamatso tsa Modimo tse di tona e le bosupi?”
39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Isaiah said again,
Mme ba ne ba seka ba dumela, fela jaaka Isaia le ene a ne a rile:
40 He hath 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.
“Modimo o foufaditse matlho a bone o bile o thatafaditse dipelo tsa bone gore ba seka ba bona le fa e le go tlhaloganya e se re kgotsa ba sokologela kwa go nna gore ke ba fodise.”
41 These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
Isaia o ne a raya Jesu fa a porofeta jaana, gonne o ne a bonye ponatshego ya kgalalelo ya ga Mesia.
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:
Le fa go ntse jalo, le baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba le bantsi ba ne ba dumela mo go ene gore ke Mesia mme legale ba ne ba sa dumele fa ba na le batho ka ntlha ya go tshaba go kgaolwa ke Bafarasai mo tlung ya ga Jehofa;
43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of YHWH.
gonne ba ne ba rata kgalaletso ya batho bogolo go kgalaletso ya Modimo.
44 Yahushua cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
Mme Jesu a goela kwa bontsintsing a re, “Fa lo ntumela lo dumela Modimo.
45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
Gonne fa lo mpona, lo bona ene yo o nthomileng.
46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
Ke tsile ke le Lesedi go phatsima mo lefatsheng leno le le lefifi gore botlhe ba ba dumelang mo go nna ba seka ba tlhola ba tsamaya mo lefifing.
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.
Mme le fa e le mang yo o nkutlwang mme a sa nkobamele, ga ke moatlhodi wa gagwe, gonne ke tletse go boloka lefatshe eseng go le atlhola.
48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
Mme botlhe ba ba nkganang le molaetsa wa me, ba tlaa atlholwa ka Letsatsi la Katlholo ka mafoko a boammaaruri a ke a buileng.
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.
Gonne se ga se tlhaloganyo ya me, mme ke lo boleletse se Rara a rileng ke se lo bolelele.
