John 11
1 And there was a certain one ailing, Lazarus, from Bethany, of the village of Mary and Martha her sister—
Kwe alyale umuunhu jumonga akatambulwagha Lasali. Umwene palikimo na valumbu, uMaliya nu Malita vakikalagha mukikaaja ikya Betania. Umuunu uju alyale ntamu.
2 and it was Mary who anointed the LORD with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ailing—
UMaliya ujuo ghwe juno alyampakile u UMaliya ujuo, ulumbu ghwa Lasali juno alyale ntamu, ghwe juno alyampakile amafuta uMutwa uYesu mumaghulu, na kukumpulusia ni linyele lyake.
3 therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You cherish is ailing”;
Avalumbu avuo vakasuung'ha imhola kwa Yesu kuuti, Mutwa umanyani ghwako uLasali ntamu.”
4 and Jesus having heard, said, “This ailment is not to death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
UYesu ye apuliike imola ijio akati, “Inhamu ijio najikum'buda, looli jimwaghile kuuti avaanhu vavuvone uvuvaha vwa Nguluve, neke uMwana ghwa Nguluve aghinisivu kukilila inhamu ijio.”
5 And Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus,
UYesu alyamughanile uLasali palikimo na valumbu uMalita nu Maliya.
6 when, therefore, He heard that he is ailing, then indeed He remained in the place in which He was two days,
Neke ye apuliike kiuuti uLasali ntamu, umwene akajigho ifighono fivi ikalile kukuo.
7 then after this, He says to the disciples, “We may go to Judea again”;
Pambele akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake akati, “Tuvuuke tugomoke kukighavo ikya Yudea.”
8 the disciples say to Him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just seeking to stone You, and again You go there?”
Avavulanisivu vakambuula vakati, “Ghwe mbulanisi, imihe pahapa aVayahudi valondagha pikukutova na mavue, uve ghulonda kange pigomoka ukuo?”
9 Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone may walk in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world;
UYesu akavamula akati, “Asi, imwisi najili ni fivalilo kijigho na fivili? Umuunhu angaghende pamwisi, naangakuvale ulwakuva ulumuli lukumulikila, ikufyagha fyoni.
10 and if anyone may walk in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him.”
Neke angaghende pakilo ikuvala, ulwakuva nsila lumulinkate mwa mwene.”
11 He said these things, and after this He says to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him”;
UYesu ye amalile kujova isio, akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake akati, “Ummanyaani ghwitu uLasali aghonelile, neke niluta kuuti ninsisimule.
12 therefore His disciples said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will be saved”;
Pe avavulanisivua vaake vakambuula vakati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave aghonelile, isisimuka.
13 but Jesus had spoken about his death, but they thought that He speaks about the repose of sleep.
UYesu alyale ijova imhola ija kufua kwa Lasali, neke avavulanisivua vaake valyale visaagha kuuti ijova imhola ija kughonelela itulo.
14 Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, “Lazarus has died;
Pe uYesu akavavuula pa vuvalafu akati, “ULasali afwile.”
15 and I rejoice, for your sake (that you may believe), that I was not there; but we may go to him”;
Neke une nihovoka vwimila umue ulwakuva nakweniveele kula uLasali ye ifua, kuuti umue munyitikaghe. Lino tuvuuke kwa Lasali.
16 therefore Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to the fellow-disciples, “We may go—we also, that we may die with Him,”
Pe uTomasi juno itambulua, “Mung'hungu” akavavuula avavulanisivua avajaake akati, “Najusue tuvuuke, tulute tufue palikimo nu Yesu.
17 Jesus, therefore, having come, found him having already been four days in the tomb.
Unsiki uYesu ye ifika mu kikaaja ikya Betania, akavona uLasali ali ni fighono fine mu mbiipa.
18 And Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia off,
Ikikaaja ikya Betania kilyale piipi ni likaaja ilya Yelusalemu ikilomita itatu ndiiki.
19 and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, that they might comfort them concerning their brother;
Avaanhu vinga mu Vayahudi vakiisa kukuvahungila uMalita nu Maliya, ulwakuva valyafwile nu lumbu.
20 Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus comes, met Him, and Mary kept sitting in the house.
Pepano uMalita akapulika kuuti uYesu afiike, akaluta kukumwupilila neke uMaliya akajigha mu nyumba.
21 Martha, therefore, said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother had not died;
Pe uMalita akam'buula uYesu akati, “Mutwa, pe usava, ulumbulyango ngale naafwile.
22 but even now, I have known that whatever You may ask of God, God will give to You”;
Neke nambe lino nikagwile kuuti ungansuume uNguluve kimonga, ikukupeela.”
23 Jesus says to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
UYesu akam'buula akati, “Ulumbulio isyuka.”
24 Martha says to Him, “I have known that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day”;
UMalita akati, “Nikagwile kuuti ilisyuka ikighono ikya vusililo kino avaanhu vooni vilisyuka.”
25 Jesus said to her, “I AM the resurrection, and the life; he who is believing in Me, even if he may die, will live;
UYesu akambuula akati, “Une nene nikuvasyusia avaanhu na kukuvapeela uvwumi. Juno ikunyitika une, nambe afue iiva mwumi;
ghwope umwumi, juno ikunyitika une, naangafue. Ghukwitika isio?” (aiōn g165)
27 do you believe this?” She says to Him, “Yes, Lord, I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.”
UMalita akamwamula akati, “Eene Mutwa, nikwitika kuuti uve veeve Kilisite, Mwana ghwa Nguluve, juno veeve Twahulagha kuuti ghulikwisa mu iisi.”
28 And having said these things, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, “The Teacher is present, and calls you”;
UMalita ye ajovile isio, akaluta kukunkemeela unnuuna maliamu uMaliya akam'buula kuvuseyfu akati, “Um'bulanisi isile, ikukukemeela.” Pe uMaliya.
29 she, when she heard, rises up quickly, and comes to Him;
Umaliamu ye apulike isio, akavuuka ng'haaing'haani na kuluta kwa Yesu.
30 and Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met Him;
Unsiki ughuo uYesu alyakyale kukwingila mu kikaaja ikio, alyale pala pala pano uMalita akalutile kukumwambilila.
31 the Jews, therefore, who were with her in the house, and were comforting her, having seen Mary that she rose up quickly and went forth, followed her, saying, “She goes away to the tomb, that she may weep there.”
Pepano aVayahudi vano valyale munyumba nu Maliamu palikimo na vaanhu vano vakalutile kukuvahungilila, ye vamwaghile ivuuka ng'haning'haani ihuma kunji, vakam'bingilila ulwakuva vakava visaagha kuuti iluta kulila kumbiipa.
32 Mary, therefore, when she came where Jesus was, having seen Him, fell at His feet, saying to Him, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother had not died”;
Pepano uMaliamu akafika pa Yesu, akafughama, akambuula akati, “Mutwa, peusava ulumbu lyango ngale naafwile.”
33 Jesus, therefore, when He saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit, and troubled Himself, and He said,
UYesu ye avwene ililia, vope vano vakaale vikum'bingilila vilila, akalemala na kupumuka mu mwojo ghwake;
34 “Where have you laid him?” They say to Him, “Lord, come and see”;
akajova akati, “Mumughonisie kughi?” Vakamwamula vakati, “Ghwe Mutwa, ghwise ulole.”
35 Jesus wept.
UYesu akalila.
36 The Jews, therefore, said, “Behold, how He was cherishing him!”
Pepano avaYahudi vakajova vakati, “Lolagha vule akamughanile uLasalI!”
37 And certain of them said, “Was not this One, who opened the eyes of the blind man, also able to cause that this one might not have died?”
Neke vamonga vakati, “Asi, uju naghwe juno akansosisie um'bofu amaaso, lino kiki naavombile kimonga kwa Lasali kuuti aleke pifua?”
38 Jesus, therefore, again groaning in Himself, comes to the tomb, and it was a cave, and a stone was lying on it,
Pepano uYesu ye ajiighe ipumuka mu mwojo ghwake, akafika pa mbiipa. Imbiipa ijio, jilyabughulilue na kudindua ni livue ilikome.
39 Jesus says, “Take away the stone”; the sister of him who has died—Martha—says to Him, “Lord, he already stinks, for he is four days dead”;
UYesu akavavuula akati, “Vusia ilivue ilio. “UMalita ulumbu ghwa Lasali umfue, akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, umbili ghuuva ghuvolile, ulwakuva fikilile ifighono fine kuhuma ifua.
40 Jesus says to her, “Did I not say to you that if you may believe, you will see the glory of God?”
UYesu akambuula akati, “Naniveele nikuvulile kuuti ungitike, ghukuvuvona uvuvaha vwa Nguluve?”
41 Therefore they took away the stone where the dead was laid, and Jesus lifted His eyes upwards, and said, “Father, I thank You that You heard Me;
Pe vakavusia ilivue lila. UYesu akalola kukyanya akati, “Ghwe Nhata, nikukuhongesia ulwakuva ghupulika inyifunyo sango.
42 and I knew that You always hear Me, but because of the multitude that is standing by, I said [it], that they may believe that You sent Me.”
Nikagwile kuuti ghukumulika ifighono fyoni, neke nijova isi vwimila ilipugha lya vaanhu ava, neke viyike kuuti uve veeve usung'hile.”
43 And saying these things, He cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”
UYesu ye ajovile isio, akalila fiijo akati, “Lasali huma kunji kuno!”
44 And he who died came forth, feet and hands being bound with grave-clothes, and his face was bound around with a napkin; Jesus says to them, “Loose him, and permit to go.”
Pe umfue, akuhuma kunji, amaghulu na mavoko ghaake ghaniengelilue ni sanda, kumaaso apinyilue ni kitambala. UYesu akavavuula akati, “Mumhudule, mumuleke alutaghe.
45 Many, therefore, of the Jews who came to Mary, and beheld what Jesus did, believed in Him;
Pepano aVayahudi vinga vano vakisile kukumhungila uMaliamu, ye vasivwene sino avombile uYesu, vakamwitika;
46 but certain of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus did;
neke vamo mu veene vakaluta ku Vafalisayi kukuvavuula sino avombile uYesu.
47 the chief priests, therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered together [the] Sanhedrin and said, “What may we do? Because this Man does many signs?
Pe avavaha va vatekesi na Vafalisayi vakakong'haana, vakaposania vakati, “Tuvombe kiki? Ulwakuva umuunhu uju ivomba ifidegho finga.
48 If we may leave Him alone thus, all will believe in Him; and the Romans will come, and will take away both our place and nation.”
Nave tukumuleka anala mwene, avaanhu vooni kyande vikumwitika, aValooma vikwisa vitoola fyoni poope palyusue na ji iisi jiitu.
49 And a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being chief priest of that year, said to them, “You have not known anything,
Pe umo muveene, juno akatambulwagha Kayafa, alyale ghwe ntekesi um'baha umwaka ughuo, akavavuula akati, “Umue namukagwile kimonga!
50 nor reason that it is good for us that one man may die for the people, and not the whole nation perish.”
Namusaagha kuuti vwimila umue, lunoghiile umuunhu jumo afue vwimila avaanhu vooni, neke iisi jooni jileke kutipulua.
51 And he did not say this of himself, but being chief priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation,
Amasio gha ntekesi ujuo naghaale masaaghe ghaake. Ulweene ulwakuva alyale ntekesi m'baha umwaka ughuo, alyaviile kuuti uYesu ifua vwima iisi;
52 and not for the nation only, but that also the children of God, who have been scattered abroad, He may gather together into one.
nakwekuti ifua vwimila iisi jeene, looli u Yesu palikimo na kukuvakong'hania avaana va Nguluve vano vapalasiine neke vaave palikimo.
53 From that day, therefore, they took counsel together that they may kill Him;
Kuhuma ikighono ikio, avalongosi va Vayahudi, vakatengula kulonda isila ija kum'buda uYesu.
54 Jesus, therefore, was no longer freely walking among the Jews, but went away from there into the region near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there He tarried with His disciples.
Mu uluo, uYesu akaleka kughenda pa vuvalafu ku Vayahudi. Pepano akavuuka pala akaluta ku kikaaja kimonga kino kikatambuluagha. Efulahimu. Ikikaaja ikio kilyale piipi ni lihaka, akikala ukuo palikimo na vavulanisivua vaake.
55 And the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the Passover, that they might purify themselves;
Ikyimike ikya Pasaka ija Vayahudi kilyale piipi. Avaanhu vinga kuhuma mu fikaaja vakaluta ku Yelusalemu kuuti vivalasie ye kikyale pifika ikyimike ikio.
56 therefore they were seeking Jesus and said with one another, standing in the temple, “What appears to you—that He may not come to the celebration?”
Pe vakava vikumulonda uYesu. Ye vali mu nyumba inyimike ija kufunyila, vakiima viposania viiti, “Mwiti ndaani, umuunhu uju, neke naikwesa ku kyimike?”
57 And both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a command, that if anyone may know where He is, he may show [it], so that they may seize Him.
Unsiki ughu, avavaha va vatekesi na Vafalisayi valyavavuulile avaanhu kuuti, umuunhu ghweni angakagule pano pwale u Yesu, alutaghe kukuvavuula neke vankole.
