John 11
1 Now a certain man, named Lazarus, of Bethany, was lying ill-- Bethany being the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
Omuntu omo itawa lyakwe ali yo Lazalo ali bhinu. Afumiye hu Bethania, eshijiji sha Mariamu na odaada wakwe oMasa.
2 (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)
Ali yo Mariamu yayola wapeshe Ogosi Amarhamu na hufute amagaga gakwe hwii sisi lyakwe, ola oholo wakwe oLazalo wali bhinu.
3 So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold dear is ill."
Ailombo ebha bhatumile oujumbe hwa Yesu na yanje, “Gosi, enya ola wogene abhawa.”
4 Jesus received the message and said, "This illness is not to end in death, but is to promote the glory of God, in order that the Son of God may be glorified by it."
O Yesu na honvwa ajile, “Empongo ene se yafwe, ila, baada yeshoye umwamihwe wa Ngolobhe aje Omwana wa Ngolobhe apate amwamihwe ashilile hwenyo empongo.”
5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
O Yesu agene oMasa no dada wakwe no Lazalo.
6 When, however, He heard that Lazarus was ill, He still remained two days in that same place.
Lwa honvwezye aje oLozalo bhinu, oYesu akheye insiku izbhele ashizanye pala pahali.
7 Then, after that, He said to the disciples, "Let us return to Judaea."
Eshi baada yelyo abhabhozya abhanafunzi bhakwe, “Saali huu Yahudi nantele.”
8 "Rabbi," exclaimed the disciples, "the Jews have just been trying to stone you, and do you think of going back there again?"
Abhanafunzi bhabhozya, “Mwalimu, Ayahudi bhali bhalenga ahupole na mawe, na aweohonza awele hwohwo nantele?”
9 "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus. "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--because he sees the light of this world.
O Yesu ayanga, “Esala zya pasanya sezili kumi ne zibhele? Omuntu ajenda pasanya sawezizye abomele, afuatanaje alola hulukhozyo lwa pasanya.
10 But if a man walks by night, he does stumble, because the light is not in him."
Ata sheshi nkashe anzajende no siku, anzabomele afuatanaje olukhozyo nalumo muhati yakwe.”
11 He said this, and afterwards He added, "Our friend Lazarus is sleeping, but I will go and wake him."
O Yesu ayanga enongwa ezi, baada ye nongwa ezi, abhabhozya, “Owamwetu oLazalo agonile, ila embala aje empate ahubhosye afume mutulo.”
12 "Master," said the disciples, "if he is asleep he will recover."
Abhanafunzi bhabhozya, “Gosi, nkashe agonile, anzabhoshe.
13 Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought He referred to the rest taken in ordinary sleep.
Ensiku izyo oYesu ali ayanga ahusu enfwa ya Lazalo, ila abhene bhamenye aje ayanga ahusu agone otulo.
14 So then He told them plainly,
O Yesu nkayanga na bhene pazelu pazelu, “O Lazalo afwiye.
15 "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there, in order that you may believe. But let us go to him."
Lusongwo lwendiinalwo hulimwe aje senahali hula aje mubhe no lweteshelo. Saali hwa mwene.”
16 "Let us go also," Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "that we may die with him."
O Tomaso wa hetwaga Pacha, abhozya abhanafunzi amwabho, “Nate saalitifwe pamo no Yesu.”
17 On His arrival Jesus found that Lazarus had already been three days in the tomb.
O Yesu lwa henzaga amweje oLazalo akheye mwilende insiku zine.
18 Bethany was near Jerusalem, the distance being a little less than two miles;
Yope e Bethania yaali pepe ne Yelusalemu nanshi ekilometa arubaini ne zisanu eshi.
19 and a considerable number of the Jews were with Martha and Mary, having come to express sympathy with them on the death of their brother.
Abhinji kati ya Yahudi bhahenzele hwa Masa no Mariamu abhazinde alengane no holo wabho.
20 Martha, however, as soon as she heard the tidings, "Jesus is coming," went to meet Him; but Mary remained sitting in the house.
O Masa ahonvwa aje oYesu ahwenza, abhalile akhomane nawo, ila oMariamu ahendeleye akhale pakhaya.
21 So Martha came and spoke to Jesus. "Master, if you had been here," she said, "my brother would not have died.
O Masa abhozya oYesu, “Gosi, nkashe ogabhiye epa, okolo wane handa safwiye.
22 And even now I know that whatever you ask God for, God will give you."
Ata sheshehwelewa aje lyalyonti lyobhalabhe afume hwa Ngolobhe, anzahupele.”
23 "Your brother shall rise again," replied Jesus.
O Yesu abhozya, okolo waho anzavyoshe nantele.”
24 "I know," said Martha, "that he will rise again at the resurrection, on the last day."
O Masa abhozya, emenye aje anzavyonshe huu vyoho wi siku lya mwisho.”
25 "I am the Resurrection and the Life," said Jesus; "he who believes in me, even if he has died, he shall live;
O Yesu abhozya, “Ane endi luvionsyono womi; omwane waneteshela, ata nkashe aifwa, hata sheshi aibha ahwizya;
26 and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never, never die. Do you believe this?" (aiōn g165)
no mwene wahwizya na netehsele ane saga ifwa. Uhweteshela eli?” (aiōn g165)
27 "Yes, Master," she replied; "I thoroughly believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
Wabhozya aje, “'Sawa, Gosi ehweteshela aje awe oli Kilisiti, Mwana wa Ngolobhe, omwene wa hwenza munsi.”
28 After saying this, she went and called her sister Mary privately, telling her, "The Rabbi is here and is asking for you."
Nahamala ayanje eli, abhalile ahukwizye odada wakwe oMariamu hufaraga. Ajile, “Omwalimu ali epa nantele ahukwizya.”
29 So she, on hearing that, rose up quickly to go to Him.
O Mariamu na hovwezye ega, abhoshele nanali na bhale hwa Yesu.
30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.
Wope oYesu ali sayenzele aliseele muhati ye shijiji, aliseele lwa khomanaga no Masa.
31 So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her, when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out, followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep aloud there.
Ayahudi bhabhali no Maliamu munyumba na bhala bhabhli wahuzinda, bhabhoshele nanali na afume honze, bhalondoleye; bhamenye aje abhala hwi kaburi aje alile ohwo.
32 Mary then, when she came to Jesus and saw Him, fell at His feet and exclaimed, "Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."
O Mariamu, ahafiha pala oYesu palolaga na agwiye pansi pamagaga gakwe na hobhozye, “Gosi, nkashe ogahali epa, oholo wane hande sagaafwiye.”
33 Seeing her weeping aloud, and the Jews in like manner weeping who had come with her, Jesus, curbing the strong emotion of His spirit,
O Yesu nalola alila, na Ayahudi bhahenzele pamo nawo bhali bhalila huu moyo gabho na sebhelele;
34 though deeply troubled, asked them, "Where have you laid him?" "Master, come and see," was their reply.
ajile, “Mugonizye hwii? Bhabhozye, Gosi, enza oyenye.”
35 Jesus wept.
O Yesu alilile.
36 "See how dear he held him," said the Jews.
Ayahudi nkabhayanga, “Oyenye sha gene oLazalo!”
37 But others of them asked, "Was this man who opened the blind man's eyes unable to prevent this man from dying?"
Bhamo muhati yabho bhajile, “Sio yayono, omuntu wabhombile amaso gola wali mpofu, sagabhombile ono muntu aje agaje afwe?”
38 Jesus, however, again restraining His strong feeling, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone had been laid against the mouth of it.
O Yesu alilaga humwoyo gwakwe nantele, abhalile hwi lende. Hwali ligwenya, niiwe libhehwele pamwanya lyakwe.
39 "Take away the stone," said Jesus. Martha, the sister of the dead man, exclaimed, "Master, by this time there is a foul smell; for it is three days since he died."
O Yesu ajile, “Lyefwi iwe.” O Masa, oilombo wakwe oLazalo, omwene wafwiye, abhozya oYesu, “Gosi, hu muda ogu, obele gubhabhe gu bholile, alenganaje ali fwee ensiku zine.”
40 "Did I not promise you," replied Jesus, "that if you believe, you shall see the glory of God?"
O Yesu abhozya, “Ane senabhozezye aje, nkashe ohweteshela, obhaulole oumwamu wa Ngolobhe?”
41 So they removed the stone. Then Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard me.
Nnkabhalyefwa iwe. O Yesu abhosya amaso gakwe amwanya naje, “Daada, ehusombezya afuatanaje onomvwa.
42 I know that Thou always hearest me; but for the sake of the crowd standing round I have said this--that they may believe that Thou didst send me."
Namenye aje ononvwa omuda gwonti, ila alengane no lubhongano lwalwe meleye anzongole aje enjanjile ega, aje bhapate ahweteshele aje awe ontumile.”
43 After speaking thus, He called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
Naayanga ega, alilile hwizu igosi, “Lazalo, fuma honze!”
44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped in cloths, and his face wrapped round with a towel. "Untie him," said Jesus, "and let him go free."
Ofwe afumile honze apinyilwe amakhono na magaga husanda zyakhatile, na amaso gakwe apinyilwe ne shitambala.” O Yesu abhabhozya, “Mwigulili muleshele abhalaje.”
45 Thereupon a considerable number of the Jews--namely those who had come to Mary and had witnessed His deeds--became believers in Him;
Oyahudi abhinji bhabhahenzele hwa Mariamu nalole oYesu habhombaga, bhamweteshela;
46 though some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them what He had done.
bhamo bhabhalile hwa Mafarisayo na bhabhozye enongwa zyazibhombile oYesu.
47 Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of the Sanhedrin. "What steps are we taking?" they asked one another; "for this man is performing a great number of miracles.
Agosi bha dimi na Mafarisayo bhabhongene pandwemo mwi baraza na yaanje, “Tibhabhombe yenu? Omuntu ono abhoembombo enyinji.
48 If we leave him alone in this way, everybody will believe in him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city and our nation."
Nkashe tibhahuleshe eshi mwene, bhonti bhanza humweteshe; Alumi bhayenza na hweje vyonti evyetu ni taifa lyetu.”
49 But one of them, named Caiaphas, being High Priest that year, said, "You know nothing about it.
Hata omuntu omuntu muhati yabho, oKayafa, waali dimi Ogosi omwaha ogwo, abhabhozya, “Semumenye hahonti.
50 You do not reflect that it is to your interest that one man should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish."
Sahusebhelela aje ehwanziwa aje omuntu omo afwe esababu ya bhanje ashile itaifa lyonti na litega.”
51 It was not as a mere man that he thus spoke. But being High Priest that year he was inspired to declare that Jesus was to die for the nation,
Eege sohagayanjile afuatanaje no mwene, mhati yakwe, ali dimi ogosi omwaha gula, ayanjile aje oYesu aifwa sababu ya bha munsi;
52 and not for the nation only, but in order to unite into one body all the far-scattered children of God.
na se huje hwabha munsi bhene ila oYesu apate abhabhonganye abhana bha Ngolobhe bhabha nyanpene hutali hutali.
53 So from that day forward they planned and schemed in order to put Him to death.
Eshi ahwandile isiku elyo na hwendelela bhapanjile ahugoje oYesu.
54 Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews, but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there with the disciples.
O Yesu sagajendile apazelu pazelu hwa Yahudi, ila asogeye epa na bhale ensi yelipeepe ni poli hunsi yehwetwa Efraimu. Epo akheye nabhanafunzi.
55 The Jewish Passover was coming near, and many from that district went up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
Epasaka ya Yahudi yali pepe, na bhinji bhazubhile abhale hu Yelusalemu honze yensi sheli sele ePasaka nkabhahwiyozye bhebho.
56 They therefore looked out for Jesus, and asked one another as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think? --will he come to the Festival at all?"
Bhali bha humwanza oYesu, na ayanje kila muntu na bhali bhemeleye mshibhanza, “Musebha yenu? Aje saga ayenza mushi kulukulu?”
57 Now the High Priests and the Pharisees had issued orders that if any one knew where He was, he should give information, so that they might arrest Him.
Owakati ou ogosi wa dimi na Mafarisayo bhali bhafumizye endajizyo aje nkashe omo aimanya oYesu hwali, ahwanziwa afumye etaarifa aje nkabhapate ahukhate.
