John 12
1 Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead.
Dena luoba n den sieni mi pendima jaanma n pundi, Jesu den gedi Betani, Lasala wan den fiini yua bi tinkpiba siiga n ye ya dogu nni.
2 So they prepared a dinner for him there; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with him.
Bi den hanbi opo mi jiema li kani. Malata den tendi ba mi jiema. Lasala den tie yaaba n ka ki di leni Jesu siiga yendo.
3 Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
Maliyama den taa ya tulale n yi naadi kilo boagidima, ke li dunga yaba boncianla, ki wuli Jesu taana po ki duuni a leni o yudi. Tulale yeni nuulu den yadi ki gbieni li dieli kuli.
4 Then Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
Judasa isikalioto, Jesu hoadikaaba siiga yendo, yua n den baan ti janbi o, den yedi:
5 "Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?"
Be yaapo ke baa kuadi laa tulale, ku japiena kobita, ki puni aluoda yi ligi?
6 Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
Wan den maadi yeni, laa tie ke o bua aluoda ka, ama kelima o den tie sugido, wani n den kubi bi ligiboagili ki yen ñadi ban ciendi yaala lienni o yuli po.
7 But Jesus said, "Leave her alone, that she may keep this for the day of my burial.
Jesu den yedi o: Han cedi o, o kubi laa tulale n piinma daali po yo.
8 For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me."
Aluoda ye yi siiga ya yogunu kuli, mini wani kan yaa ye yi siiga yogunu kuli.
9 A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learned 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.
Jufinba boncianla n den gbadi, ke Jesu ye Betani, bi den cua likani. Baa den cua Jesu wani oba bebe po ka, ama bi go den bua ki le Lasala wan den fiini yua bi tinkpiba siiga moko.
10 But the chief priests plotted to kill Lazarus also,
Bi kopadicianba yudanba den juogi ki bili ke bi baa kpa Lasala.
11 because on account of him many of the Jewish people went away and believed in Jesus.
Kelima Lasala po, Jufinba boncianla den ha ba ki daani Jesu.
12 On the next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Lan den fii ki fa yaa niligu n den cua, ki baa jaani, mi jaanma den bandi ke Jesu kpendi Jelusalema.
13 they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and were shouting, "Hosanna. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel."
Bi den pedi ikpakpabensoangi, ki tuogi o ki kpaani ki tua: U Tienu n ba ti pagidi, U Tienu n seligi yua n kpendi, o Diedo yeli nni, wani isalele yaaba bado.
14 And Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
Jesu den ba li hunbisaagili ki jagini li, nani idiani n yedi maama,
15 "Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Look, your King comes, sitting on a donkey's colt."
han da jie fini siyono dogu kelima abado kpendi na, ki jagi li hunbisaagili.
16 His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
Jesu hoadikaaba, daa den bandi laa bonla, n bua ki yedi yaala, ama yaa yogunu ke Jesu den baa ti kpiagidi, bi den tiadi ke laa bonla kuli den diani ki maadi o yaapo yo. Lanwani bi den sua ke kuli tieni cebini opo.
17 The crowd therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it.
Yaaba n den ye leni Jesu, wan den yini Lasala yaa yogunu, ke o fii ki ñani likuli nni, ki fii bi tikpiba siiga kuli den tiendi opo siedi.
18 For this cause also the crowd went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
Ku niligu boncianla, den ñani ki tuogi o, yeni kelima bi den gbadi ke o tieni bancianma.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "See how you accomplish nothing. Look, the whole world has gone after him."
Falisieninba den tua bi yaba: Yi laa ke yin tieni maam kuli yi kan fidi, kelima handuna kuli hoadi o.
20 Now there were certain Greeks among those that went up to worship at the feast.
Yaaba n den cua ki baa kpiagi U Tienu, mi jaanma yogunu yeni, siiga bi tianba den tie Gilekinba,
21 These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we want to see Jesus."
bi den cua Filipi kani ki yedi o: Canbaa, ti bua ki le Jesu, Filipi yeni den tie Galile yaa Betisayida dogu yua.
22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
Filipi den gedi, ki waani Andile ke Andile leni Filipi kuli den yegi ki gedi, ki ban waani Jesu.
23 And Jesus answered them, "The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Jesu den guani ki yedi: O joa Bijua n baa ba ti kpiagidi yaa yogunu pundi.
24 Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.
Yi moamoani yi moamoani kani n yedi yi, ke mi dibima yaa kua ki tinga nni, ki kpe mi li baa ye bonyenme, ama mi ya kua ki tinga nni ki kpe lane mi baa pa ki luoni boncianla.
25 He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Yua n bua o miali baa biani li, ama yua n nani o miali handuna nni, o baan le li tanpoli, yaa miali n kan gbeni po. (aiōnios g166)
26 If anyone serves me, let him follow me; and where I am, there will my servant also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.
Li ya tie ke onilo tuuni n yaapo, kali wan yaa hua nni, kelima min ye naankani n tuonsoanlo moko, baa ye lankane. Yua n tuuni n po kuli, Baa baa kpiagi o.
27 "Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say? 'Father, save me from this hour?' But for this cause I came to this hour.
Moalane n yama yagi. Naani n baa yedi Baa faabi nni leni yaa yogunu n tiena fala bi? Ki sua laa fala po, n cuani nni ke n ye handuna nni hali moane.
28 Father, glorify your name." Then there came a voice out of the sky, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."
Baa, kpiagi a yeli. U nialu den ñani tanpoli ki yedi: N kpiagili, n go baa kpiagili.
29 The crowd therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."
Ya niligu n ye likani n den gbadi unialu yeni, bine den yedi: Ki taaga n duni, bine n yedi: Maleki n maadi leni o.
30 Jesus answered, "This voice hasn't come for my sake, but for your sakes.
Jesu den yedi ba: Laa tie mini yaapo ka, ke unialu maadi, ama u maadi yi yaapo yo.
31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
Moala handuna buudi jia. Moala bi baa lu handuna bado, niinpo.
32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to myself."
Bi ya yugidini, ki tinga po, n baa dadi bi niba kuli yama ban cua n kani.
33 But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
Wan den maadi yeni, o den maadi wan baa kpe yaa kuuma, yaa maame.
34 The crowd answered him, "We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. Then how can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of Man?" (aiōn g165)
Ku niligu den guani ki yedi o: Ti gbadi ke Kilisiti baa ye hali yaa yogunu kuli, U Tienu balimaama tili nni, n waani ti la. Be yaapo yo ke fini mo nan yedi: Ke bi baa yugidi o Joa Bijua? ŋme n tie O Joa Bijua? (aiōn g165)
35 Jesus therefore said to them, "Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness does not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
Jesu den yedi ba: Mi yenma daa go baa ye yi siiga yogunu waamu po. Yin ya cuoni mani yaa yogunu kuli, ke yi pia mi yenma, ke li biigili n da cua ki ludi yi. Kelima yua n cuoni li biigili nni, naa bani wan caa naani.
36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light." Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
Mi yenma da ye yi siiga, daani mani mi yenma yeni, ke yin fidi ki tua mi yenma bila.
37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him,
Baa ke o den tieni mi bancianma, boncianla bi siiga baa den daani o.
38 that the word 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?"
Li den tua yeni ke osawalipualo Esayi n den maadi yaa maama, n tieni, O Diedo ŋme n daani ti maama? Fini o Diedo nuu paalu den doagidi ŋme yaapo yo?
39 For this cause they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,
Ama bi kan den fidi ki daani, kelima Esayi go den yedi:
40 He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.
U Tienu juani bi nuni, ki juagi bi pala, ke ban da le leni bi nuni, ki da ga leni bi pala. Ke ban da lebidi ki ha bi tuonbiadi. Min paagiba.
41 Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
Esayi den yedi laa bonla, yaa yogunu ke o den laa okpiagidi, ki den maadi omaama.
42 Nevertheless even of the rulers many believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue,
Baa leni lankuli, Jufinba yudanba siiga boncianla den daani Jesu. Ama baa den tuo ki doagidi ke bi hoadi o, kelima bi den jie Faliiseninba ke ban da deli ki ñani ba, li balimaama bangima dieli nni.
43 for they loved praise from people more than praise from God.
Bi den tieni yeni kelima bi den bua bi nisaaliba kani ti kpiagidi ki cie U Tienu yaa kpiagidi.
44 Then Jesus shouted out and said, "Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
Jesu den kpaani ki yedi: Yua n daani nni, waa daani mini bebe ka, o daani yua n soani nne.
45 And he who sees me sees him who sent me.
Yua n laa nni, laa yua n soani nni.
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
Mini n cua ki tie mi yenma handuna nni, ke yua n daani nni, n da go ye li biigili nni.
47 And if anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Yua n gbadi n maama, ki yie kuli mini ka baa bu leni o, kelima mii cua ki baa jia handuna buudi ka, ama n cua ki baa faabi ba.
48 He who rejects me, and does not accept my words, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him on the last day.
Yua n yie nni kaa ga n maamakuli pia o bujialo. Min maadi ya maama yeni, mani n baa jia obuudi li juodi daali.
49 For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
Kelima mii maadi n yuceli maama ka, Baa yua n soani nni, wani n tuodi ki bili min baa maadi yaa maama leni min baa maadima maama.
50 I know that his commandment is everlasting life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak." (aiōnios g166)
N bani ke o mabilikaama yeni tie yaa miali n kan gbeni. Lanyaapo n teni min maadi yaa maama kuli tie Baa n waani nni, min maadi yaame. (aiōnios g166)
