John 12
1 Six days before the Passover [celebration started], Jesus arrived in Bethany [village, along with us]. That was where Lazarus lived. He was the man Jesus [previously] caused to be alive again after he died.
Kuus päeva enne paasapüha läks Jeesus Betaaniasse Laatsaruse juurde, kes oli surnuist üles äratatud.
2 There they gave a dinner to [honor] Jesus. Martha served the meal. [Her younger brother], Lazarus, was among the people who were eating with Jesus.
Seal korraldati tema auks pidusöök. Marta aitas toitu serveerida, samal ajal istus Laatsarus koos Jeesuse ja teiste külalistega laua ääres.
3 Then Mary took [a bottle] of expensive perfume [called] nard and poured it on Jesus’ feet [to honor him]. Then she wiped his feet with her hair. The whole house was filled with the [beautiful] smell of the perfume.
Maarja tõi umbes pool liitrit puhast nardiõli, võidis Jeesuse jalgu ja kuivatas neid oma juustega. Parfüümi lõhn täitis kogu maja.
4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]) objected. He was the one who later enabled Jesus’ enemies to seize him.
Aga üks jüngritest, Juudas Iskariot, kes hiljem Jeesuse ära andis, küsis:
5 He said, “(We should have sold this perfume and given [the money] to poor people!/Why did [we] not sell this perfume and give [the money for it] to the poor people?) [RHQ] We could have gotten 300 days’ wages for it!”
„Miks ei müüdud seda parfüümi ära ega antud raha vaestele? See oli väärt kolmsada denaari.“
6 He said that, not because he cared about the poor people, but instead, because he was a thief. He was the one who kept the bag [of funds that people gave to help Jesus and us his disciples], and he often stole some of the money that was {that [people]} put into it.
Ta ei öelnud seda sellepärast, et ta hoolis vaestest, vaid sellepärast, et ta oli varas. Tema oli see, kes hoolitses jüngrite raha eest ja ta võttis sageli sellest endale.
7 Then Jesus said, “Do not bother her! [She bought this perfume] in order to save it until the day when they will bury me [after I die].
„Ärge arvustage teda, “vastas Jeesus. „Ta tegi seda minu matusepäevaks valmistudes.
8 There will always be poor people among you, [so you can help them whenever you want to]. But I will not be with you much longer, [so it is good that she showed right now how much she appreciates me].”
Vaeseid on teie juures alati, kuid mind ei ole siin alati.“
9 A large crowd of Jews heard [people say] that Jesus was there [in Bethany]. So they came, not only [to see] Jesus but also to see Lazarus, the man whom he had caused to become alive again after he died.
Suur hulk juute oli avastanud, et ta on seal. Nad tulid sinna mitte ainult Jeesust vaatama, vaid nad tahtsid näha ka Laatsarust, meest, kelle Jeesus oli surnuist üles äratanud.
10 So the chief priests decided to kill Lazarus also,
Niisiis kavatsesid ülempreestrid tappa ka Laatsaruse,
11 because many of the Jews were [deserting them and] going to Jesus and believing in him because of [Jesus causing] Lazarus [to be alive again].
kuna tema pärast ei järginud nii paljud enam juudi juhte, vaid hakkasid Jeesusesse uskuma.
12 The next day the huge crowd of people that had come [to Jerusalem] for the [Passover] celebration heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
Järgmisel päeval kuulsid paasapühale tulnud rahvahulgad, et Jeesus on teel Jeruusalemma.
13 So they [cut] branches from some palm trees and took the branches out [of the city] to [wave them when they] met him. Some of them were shouting things like, “Hooray!” “May the Lord [God] bless the one who is coming with his authority [MTY]!” Some other people were shouting, “[May God bless] the King of Israel!”
Nad lõikasid palmioksi ja läksid teda tervitama, hüüdes: „Hosanna! Õnnistatud on see, kes tuleb Issanda nimel. Õnnistatud on Iisraeli kuningas.“
14 When Jesus [came near to Jerusalem], he got a young donkey and sat on it [as he rode into the city]. By doing this, [he fulfilled] what had been written {what [a prophet] had written} [in Scripture],
Jeesus leidis noore eesli ja ratsutas selle seljas, nagu öeldakse Pühakirjas:
15 You people of Jerusalem, do not be afraid! Look! Your king is coming! He is riding on a donkey’s colt!
„Ära karda, Siioni tütar. Vaata, su kuningas tuleb, ratsutab eeslisälu seljas.“
16 At first [we] disciples did not understand those things. But after Jesus had returned to heaven, we realized that those things had been written {that [a prophet] had written those things} about him, and that [by] doing those things for him [the people had fulfilled what the prophet prophesied].
Sel ajal Jeesuse jüngrid ei mõistnud, mida need asjad tähendavad. Alles pärast tema ülendamist nad mõistsid, et juhtunu oli prohvetite poolt ette kuulutatud ja käis tema kohta.
17 The crowd that was with him continued to tell other people that he called Lazarus to come out of the tomb, [and that Lazarus had then become alive again].
Paljud rahva seast olid näinud, kuidas Jeesus kutsus Laatsaruse hauast välja ja äratas ta surnuist üles ning nad jutustasid seda lugu.
18 Because of that, many people, because they heard [others say] that he had performed this miracle, went to meet him.
See oli põhjus, miks nii paljud läksid Jeesusega kohtuma − sest nad olid kuulnud sellest imeteost.
19 So the Pharisees said to each other, “It is obvious that we are making no progress [in trying to stop him! It looks like] [HYP] everyone [MTY] is becoming his disciple!”
Variserid ütlesid üksteisele: „Vaadake, me ei jõua kuhugi. Kõik jooksevad tema järel.“
20 Among those who went up [to Jerusalem] to worship [God] during the [Passover] celebration were some Greeks.
Ka mõned kreeklased olid tulnud pühadele Jumalat teenima.
21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida [town] in Galilee [province]. They [wanted him] to do something for them. They said, “Sir, we would like to talk with Jesus.”
Nad tulid Galilea Betsaidast pärit Filippuse juurde ja ütlesid: „Isand, me tahaksime Jeesust näha.“
22 So after Philip went and told that to Andrew, they both went and told Jesus.
Filippus läks ja rääkis Andreasele. Siis läksid nad koos Jeesuse juurde ja rääkisid talle.
23 Then, [to show them that he must die in order to give eternal life to non-Jews like those Greeks], Jesus replied to them, “It is time for [God] to honor me, the one who came from heaven. [That will happen when I die].
Jeesus vastas: „Inimese Pojal on tulnud aeg, et ta saaks austatud.
24 Listen to this carefully: [My life is like a seed] [MET]. If [someone] does not plant a kernel of grain in the ground, it does not change. It remains only one [seed]. But if it changes [after it is planted in the ground, it will grow and] produce many seeds.
Ma räägin teile tõtt: kui nisutera ei külvata mulda ja ta ei sure, jääb ta lihtsalt üheks teraks. Aga kui ta sureb, annab ta veel palju nisuteri.
25 Anyone who strongly wants to keep on living [here on earth] will surely lose his life forever. But anyone who is willing to die [HYP] [for my sake] will surely gain eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Kui te armastate oma elu, siis te kaotate selle, aga kui te ei armasta oma elu selles maailmas, siis hoiate oma elu igavesti. (aiōnios g166)
26 If [any of these Greeks or] anyone [else] wants to serve me, they must become my disciples. Then, [after they die], they will be where I am, [in heaven]. My Father will honor all those who serve me.
Kui tahate mind teenida, peate mind järgima. Minu teenijad on seal, kus olen mina, ja mu Isa austab igaüht, kes mind teenib.
27 Now I am deeply disturbed. (I do not know what to say./What shall I say?) [RHQ] Should I say, ‘[My] Father, save me from this time [when I will suffer and die!’]? No, [I should not say that, because] the reason I came ([into this world/from heaven]) was that I would [suffer] [MTY] now.
Nüüd olen ma murelik. Mida peaksin ütlema? „Isa, säästa mind sellest tulevasest kannatuste ajast?“Ei, sest sellepärast ma tulingi − et minna läbi selle kannatuste aja.
28 My Father, show how great you are!” John 12:28b-36a Then [God] spoke [EUP] from heaven, saying, “I have already shown how great [I am], and I will do it again!”
Isa, näita mulle oma iseloomu au.“Taevast kostis hääl, mis ütles: „Ma olen juba selle au näidanud ja näitan seda veel.“
29 The crowd that was there heard [it but they did not understand the words. Some said] it was thunder. Others said an angel had spoken to him.
Rahvas, kes seal seisis, kuulis seda. Mõned ütlesid, et see oli kõuemürin, teised ütlesid, et ingel rääkis temaga.
30 Jesus replied to them, “The voice that you heard speaking [was God’s voice, but] it was not for my benefit. It was for your benefit!
Jeesus ütles neile: „See hääl ei kõnelenud minu, vaid teie pärast.
31 Now is the time for [God] to judge [the people in] [MTY] the world. Now is the time when [I] will destroy [the power of Satan], the one who rules this world.
Nüüd on selle maailma kohus; nüüd heidetakse selle maailma vürst välja.
32 But as for me, when I am lifted {when [men] lift me} up from the ground [on a cross, I will make a way for] gathering everyone to myself.”
Aga kui mind maa pealt üles tõstetakse, tõmban ma kõik enda juurde.“
33 He said this to show us the way in which he was going to die.
(Ta ütles seda, et viidata, missugust surma pidi ta surema.)
34 [Someone in] the crowd answered him, “We understand from the Scriptures that the Messiah will live forever. So why do you say that the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], will be lifted up {that [men] will lift up the one who came from heaven, [who is the Messiah], } on a cross? What kind of man who came from heaven are you [talking about]? (OR, That’s not the [kind] of Messiah [we are expecting]!)” (aiōn g165)
Rahvas vastas: „Seadus ütleb, et Messias elab igavesti, kuidas sa saad siis öelda, et inimese Poeg „tõstetakse üles“? Kes on „inimese Poeg“?“ (aiōn g165)
35 Then Jesus said to them, “[My message is like] [MET] a light for you. [I] will be with you for only a little while longer. Live and act [as you should] while I am still with you, [because suddenly you will have no more opportunity to hear my message! You do not want to be like] [MET] [someone] who cannot see where he is going any more [when it suddenly] becomes dark!
Jeesus vastas: „Valgus on siin teie juures veidi aega. Kõndige, kuni teil on valgus, et pimedus ei tabaks teid ootamatult. Need, kes kõnnivad pimeduses, ei tea, kuhu nad lähevad.
36 Believe in my message [MET] while you still have an opportunity to do it, in order that you may become people who have accepted my truth [MET]!” John 12:36b-43 After Jesus said those things, he left them and hid from them.
Uskuge valgusesse, kuni see teil on, et te saaksite valguse lasteks.“Kui Jeesus oli neile seda öelnud, siis ta lahkus ja peitis end nende eest.
37 Although he had done many miracles while people were watching, [most of] them refused to believe that he [is] ([the Messiah/from God]).
Aga hoolimata kõigist imetegudest, mida Jeesus oli nende juuresolekul teinud, ei uskunud nad ikkagi Jeesusesse.
38 [Their stubbornness and refusal to believe was similar to the stubbornness of the people that] the prophet Isaiah wrote about long ago: Lord, (hardly anyone has believed our message!/who has believed our message?) [RHQ] Most people refused to accept it, even though you showed them your power!
Nii läks täide prohvet Jesaja sõnum: „Issand, kes on uskunud seda, mida neile rääkisime? Kellele on Issanda vägi ilmutatud?“
39 That was the reason why they were unable to believe. [It was like] Isaiah wrote somewhere else that God said:
Nad ei suutnud temasse uskuda ja nii täitsid nad selle, mida Jesaja on veel öelnud:
40 They have [refused to understand; they acted as though they were] blind people! They were insensible in their inner beings! As a result, they have not perceived [my truth]! They have not understood it in their inner beings! They have not turned [from their sinful lives], and because of that I cannot help them!
„Ta pimestas nende silmad ja tegi nende mõistuse nüriks, et nende silmad ei näeks ja mõistus ei mõtleks ja nad ei pöörduks minu poole, sest kui nad seda teeksid, siis ma tervendaksin nad.“
41 Isaiah wrote that because [it was as though] he saw [ahead of time] how great Jesus would be, and he prophesied [those things] about him.
Jesaja nägi Jeesuse au ja ütles seda temale viidates.
42 Although most of the Jewish [leaders] [SYN] did not believe that Jesus is ([the Messiah/from God]), some of them believed in him. But they would not tell anyone that they believed in him, because [they were afraid that if they said that], the Pharisees would not let them worship in the synagogues.
Isegi palju juhte uskus temasse. Kuid nad ei tunnistanud seda avalikult, sest ei tahtnud, et variserid nad sünagoogist välja heidaks,
43 They wanted people to praise them more than they wanted God to praise them.
sest nad armastasid inimeste imetlust rohkem kui Jumala heakskiitu.
44 [Another day, when] Jesus [was teaching the people, he] shouted, “Those who believe in me, they are not believing in [me alone]. Instead, [it is as though] they also believe in the one who sent me.
Jeesus hüüdis: „Kui te usute minusse, siis ei usu te ainult minusse, vaid ka temasse, kes mu läkitas.
45 When they see me [and what I am doing, it is as though] they are seeing the one who sent me.
Kui te näete mind, näete teda, kes mu läkitas.
46 I have come into the world [to show people God’s truth], as a light [shows people what is around them]. I have come in order that people who believe in me will not remain [ignorant of God’s truth] [MET], [as those who are] in the darkness [are ignorant of what is around them].
Ma olen tulnud nagu valgus, mis paistab maailmas, nii et kui usute minusse, ei jää te pimedusse.
47 As for those who hear my message but do not obey [its commands], I am not [the one who] judges them. [The main reason] that I came ([into the world/from heaven]) was not to judge [the people of] [MTY] the world. Instead, I came to save them [from being punished for their sins].
Ma ei mõista kohut kellegi üle, kes kuuleb mu sõnu, kuid ei tee nende järgi. Ma tulin maailma päästma, mitte selle üle kohut mõistma.
48 There is something that will judge those who reject me and do not accept my message. On the judgment day [God] will condemn them [because they rejected] the message that I have told them.
Kes mu tagasi lükkab ja kes ei võta mu sõnu vastu, selle üle mõistetakse kohut lõpuaja kohtus vastavalt sellele, mida ma olen öelnud.
49 I have not said things from my own [authority]. Instead, [my] Father, the one who sent me, instructed me what to say and how I should say it.
Sest ma ei räägi enda nimel, vaid Isa nimel, kes mu läkitas. Tema on see, kes õpetab mind, mida ja kuidas öelda.
50 I know that [paying attention to] what he has instructed us [leads to] eternal life. So whatever I say is exactly (OR, only) what [my] Father has told me to say.” (aiōnios g166)
Ma tean, et see, mida tema käsib mul öelda, toob igavese elu; nii et kõik, mida ma räägin, on see, mida Isa mind käsib.“ (aiōnios g166)
