1 Esi wòsusɔ ŋkeke ade woaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la, Yesu va ɖo Betania si nye Lazaro, ame si wòfɔ ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome la ƒe du me.
Then Iesus sixe dayes before ester came to Bethany where Lazarus was which was deed and who Iesus raysed from deeth.
2 Woɖo fiẽnuɖukplɔ̃ na Yesu le afi sia. Marta subɔ Yesu le kplɔ̃ la ŋu. Lazaro hã nɔ kplɔ̃a ŋu kple Yesu.
There they made him a supper and Martha served: But Lazarus was one of them that sate at the table with him.
3 Esi wonɔ nu ɖum la, Maria tsɔ amiʋeʋĩ xɔasi aɖe vɛ, eye wòsii na Yesu ƒe afɔwo, eye wòtsɔ eƒe taɖa tutu Yesu ƒe afɔwoe. Ami la ƒe ʋeʋẽ xɔ aƒe blibo la me.
Then toke Mary a pounde of oyntmet called Nardus perfecte and precious and anoynted Iesus fete and wipt his fete with her heer and the housse was filled of the savre of the oyntmet.
4 Esi Yuda Iskariɔt, Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dometɔ ɖeka, ame si fia Yesu yomemɔ emegbe la kpɔ nu sia la, egblɔ be,
Then sayde one of his disciples name Iudas Iscariot Simos sonne which afterwarde betrayed him:
5 “Nu ka ta womedzra amiʋeʋĩ sia hetsɔ ga la na ame dahewo o ɖo?”
why was not this oyntmet solde for thre hondred pence and geve to the poore?
6 Eƒe asi wu ƒe ɖeka ƒe fetu. Megblɔ esia ɖe esi wòtsɔ ɖe le eme na ame dahewo ta o, ke boŋ fiafitɔ wònye; eyae kpɔa nusrɔ̃lawo ƒe ga dzi, eye wònɔa ga la fim.
This sayde he not that he cared for the pooer: but because he was a thefe and kept the bagge and bare that which was geven.
7 Tete Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Miɖe asi le eŋu, elabena ewɔ esia be yeadzram ɖo ɖi na nye ɖigbe.
Then sayde Iesus: Let her alone agaynst the daye of my buryinge she kept it.
8 Ame dahewo anɔ mia dome ɖaa, ke nyemanɔ mia dome ɖaa o.”
The poore all wayes shall ye have with you but me shall ye not all wayes have.
9 Esi Yudatɔwo se be Yesu va ɖo wo dome la, woʋli vevie be yewoakpɔe, eye yewoakpɔ Lazaro, ame si Yesu fɔ tso ame kukuwo dome la hã.
Moche people of the Iewes had knowledge that he was there. And they came not for Iesus sake only but yt they myght se Lazarus also whom he raysed from deeth.
10 Eya ta nunɔlagãwo wɔ ɖoɖo be yewoawu Lazaro hã,
The hye prestes therfore held a counsell that they myght put Lazarus to deeth also
11 elabena eya tae Yudatɔ geɖewo dze Yesu yome, eye woxɔ edzi se ɖo.
because that for his sake many of the Iewes went awaye and beleved on Iesus.
12 Esi ŋu ke la, ameha gã si va azã la ɖuƒe la se be Yesu le mɔ dzi gbɔna Yerusalem. Ame geɖe siwo va Ŋutitotoŋkekenyui la ɖuƒe la hã see ale woyi be yewoaɖakpee.
On the morowe moche people that were come to the feast when they hearde yt Iesus shuld come to Ierusalem
13 Ale woŋe deʋayawo ɖe asi yina be yewoakpee, eye wonɔ ɣli dom nɔ aseye tsom be, “Hosana!” “Yayratɔe nye ame si gbɔna le Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkɔ me!” “Yayratɔe nye Israel ƒe fia la!”
toke braunches of palme trees and went and met him and cryed: Hosanna blessed is he that in the name of the Lorde commeth kynge of Israel.
14 Yesu kpɔ tedzivi aɖe, eye wònɔ anyi ɖe edzi abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi ene be,
And Iesus got a yonge asse and sate thero accordinge to that which was writte:
15 “Mègavɔ̃ o, Zion nyɔnuvi. Kpɔ ɖa, wò fia do tedzivi gbɔna!”
feare not doughter of Sio beholde thy kynge cometh sittinge on an asses coolte.
16 Gbã la, Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo mese nu siawo katã gɔme o. Ke esi wokɔ Yesu ŋu wòtrɔ dzo yi dziƒo le ŋutikɔkɔe me megbe hafi wode dzesii be woŋlɔ nu siawo tso eŋu, eye wowɔ nu siawo nɛ.
These thinges vnderstode not his disciples at ye fyrst: but when Iesus was gloryfied then remembryd they that soche thinges were written of him and that soche thinges they had done vnto him.
17 Azɔ ameha siwo nɔ eteƒe hafi Yesu yɔ Lazaro be wòado go tso yɔdo me, eye wòfɔe ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome la kaka nya la.
The people that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave and raysed him from deeth bare recorde.
18 Le nukunu si wòwɔ wose ta la, amewo ƒo zi yi be yewoaɖakpɔe.
Therfore met him the people be cause they hearde yt he had done soche a myracle.
19 Ale Farisitɔwo gblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Mikpɔ ɖa, nu sia mele mía dzi de ge o. Mikpɔ ale si xexea me katã kplɔe ɖoe ɖa!”
The Pharises therfore sayde amonge them selves: perceave ye how we prevayle no thinge? beholde the worlde goth awaye after him.
20 Grikitɔ aɖewo hã nɔ ame siwo va Yerusalem dua me be yewoaɖu Ŋutitotoŋkekea la dome.
Ther were certayne Grekes amoge them that came to praye at the feast:
21 Ame siawo va Filipo, ame si tso Betsaida le Galilea la gbɔ, eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, miedi be miakpɔ Yesu.”

22 Filipo hã ɖagblɔe na Andrea ale eya kple Andrea woyi ɖagblɔe na Yesu.
Philip came and tolde Andrew. And agayne Andrew and Philip tolde Iesus.
23 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Gaƒoƒo la de be woakɔ Amegbetɔ Vi la ŋu.
And Iesus answered them sayinge: the houre is come yt the sonne of ma must be glorified.
24 Le nyateƒe me, mele egblɔm na mi be, ne bliku la mege ɖe anyigba, eye wòku o la, ekema eya ɖeka tsi anyi. Gake ne eku la, etsea ku geɖe.
Verely verely I saye vnto you except ye wheate corne fall into the grounde and dye it bydeth alone. Yf it dye it brengeth forth moche frute.
25 Ame si lɔ̃ eƒe agbe la, abui, ke ame si gbe nu le eƒe agbe gbɔ le xexe sia me, adzrae ɖo ɖi na agbe mavɔ la. (aiōnios g166)
He that loveth his lyfe shall destroye it: and he yt hateth his lyfe in this worlde shall kepe it vnto lyfe eternall. (aiōnios g166)
26 “Ame si subɔam la, ele be wòadze yonyeme, be afi si mele la, nye subɔla hã nanɔ afi ma. Fofonye ade bubu ame si subɔam la ŋu.
If eny man mynister vnto me let him folowe me and where I am there shall also my minister be. And yf eny man minister vnto me him will my father honoure.
27 “Azɔ nye dzi le nu xam, ke nya ka magblɔ? Fofo, ɖem le gaƒoƒo sia mea? Gbeɖe, elabena esia ta meva xexea me ɖo.
Now is my soule troubled and what shall I saye? Father delyver me from this houre: but therfore came I vnto this houre
28 Fofo, kɔ wò ŋkɔ ŋu.” Esi Yesu wu nya siawo nu la, gbe aɖe ɖi tso dziƒo be, “Mekɔ eŋuti xoxo, eye magakɔ eŋuti.”
Father glorify thy name. Then came ther a voyce fro heaven: I have glorified it and will glorify it agayne.
29 Esi ameha la se gbe sia la, wogblɔ be dziɖegbee; bubuwo gblɔ be mawudɔla aɖe ƒo nu nɛ.
Then sayd the people yt stode by and hearde: it thoundreth. Other sayde an angell spake to him.
30 Yesu gblɔ be, “Miawo ta gbe sia ɖi ɖo, menye tanye o.
Iesus answered and sayde: this voyce cam not because of me but for youre sakes.
31 Gaƒoƒo la de be woadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu xexea me; azɔ la, woanya xexe sia me ƒe fia la.
Now is the iudgement of this worlde: now shall ye prince of this worlde be cast out.
32 Gake nye la, ne wokɔm ɖa tso anyigba la, mahe amewo katã ɖe ɖokuinye ŋu.”
And I yf I were lifte vp from the erthe will drawe all men vnto me.
33 Egblɔ nya sia be yeatsɔ afia ku si ƒomevi ku ge yeala.
This sayde Iesus signifyinge what deeth he shuld dye.
34 Ameha la biae be, “Míesee le Se la me be Kristo la anɔ agbe tegbee. Nu ka ta nèbe ‘woakɔ Amegbetɔ Vi la ɖe dzi’ ɖo? Ame kae nye Amegbetɔ Vi sia?” (aiōn g165)
The people answered him: We have hearde of ye lawe yt Christ bydeth ever: and how sayest thou then that the sonne of man must be lifte vp? who is yt sonne of ma? (aiōn g165)
35 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Kekeli la agaklẽ na mi ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko. Mizɔ le kekeli la me hafi viviti nagado ɖe mi. Ame si le viviti me zɔm la menya afi si yim wòle o.
Then Iesus sayde vnto them: yet a lytell whyle is the light wt you. Walke whill ye have light lest the darcknes come on you. He that walketh in the darke wotteth not whither he goeth.
36 Mixɔ kekeli la dzi se esi wòle mia gbɔ, be miazu kekeli ƒe viwo.” Esi Yesu gblɔ nya siawo vɔ la, edo go le ameawo dome ɖaɣla eɖokui.
Whyll ye have light beleve on the light that ye maye be the chyldren of light. These thinges spake Iesus and departed and hyd him silfe fro them.
37 Togbɔ be Yesu wɔ nukunu siawo le wo dome hã la, womexɔ edzi se o.
And though he had done so many myracles before them yet beleved not they on him
38 Esia ɖo kpe Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya ƒe nya dzi be, “Aƒetɔ, ame kae xɔ míaƒe nya dzi se? Eye ame kae woɖe Mawu ƒe ŋusẽ gã la fia?”
yt the sayinge of Esayas the Prophet myght be fulfilled yt he spake. Lorde who shall beleve oure sayinge? And to whom ys the arme of ye Lorde opened?
39 Susu sia ta womexɔ edzi se o ɖo, elabena Yesaya gagblɔ be,
Therfore coulde they not beleve because yt Esaias sayth agayne:
40 “Mawu gbã woƒe ŋkuwo, eye wòna be woƒe dziwo ku atri, be womagakpɔ nu kple woƒe ŋkuwo, alo ase nu gɔme kple woƒe dziwo o, alo atrɔ ɖe Mawu ŋu be wòada gbe le wo ŋu o.”
he hath blinded their eyes and hardened their hertes that they shuld not se with their eyes and vnderstonde with their hertes and shuld be converted and I shuld heale the.
41 Yesaya gblɔ esia, elabena ekpɔ Yesu ƒe ŋutikɔkɔe, eye wòƒo nu tso eŋu.
Soche thinges sayde Esaias when he sawe his glory and spake of him.
42 Ke hã la, Yudatɔwo ƒe dumegã geɖewo xɔ Yesu dzi se. Gake ɖe Farisitɔwo ta la, womete ŋu ʋu woƒe xɔse me o; wonɔ vɔvɔ̃m be woanya yewo le gbedoxɔ la me,
Neverthelesse amoge ye chefe rulers many beleved on him. But because of the pharises they wolde not be a knowen of it lest they shuld be excommunicate.
43 elabena wolɔ̃ amegbetɔ ƒe kafukafu wu Mawu ƒe kafukafu.
For they loved the prayse yt is geven of men more then the prayse that cometh of God.
44 Yesu do ɣli gblɔ be, “Ne ame aɖe xɔ dzinye se la, menye nye ɖeka dzi wòxɔ se o, ke boŋ ame si dɔm la hã.
And Iesus cryed and sayde: he that beleveth on me beleveth not on me but on him yt sent me.
45 Elabena ne ekpɔm la, ekpɔ ame si dɔm la hã.
And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.
46 Nye la, meva xexea me abe kekeli ene, be ame si xɔ dzinye se la manɔ viviti me o.
I am come a light into the worlde that whosoever beleveth on me shuld not byde in darcknes.
47 “Ke ame si se nye nyawo, gake mewɔ ɖe wo dzi o la, nyemadrɔ̃ ʋɔnui o. Elabena nyemeva be madrɔ̃ ʋɔnu xexea me o, ke boŋ be maɖe xexea me.
And yf eny man heare my wordes and beleve not I iudge him not. For I came not to iudge the worlde: but to save ye worlde.
48 Ʋɔnudrɔ̃la aɖe li si adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu ame si gbe nu le gbɔnye, eye mexɔ nye nyawo o; nya siwo megblɔ la, woawoe woatsɔ abu fɔ woe le nuwuwuŋkeke la dzi.
He that refuseth me and receaveth not my wordes hath one that iudgeth him. The wordes that I have spoken they shall iudge him in ye last daye.
49 Elabena nyemeƒo nu le ɖokuinye si o, ke boŋ Fofo si dɔm la ƒe nya siwo katã wògblɔ nam be magblɔ lae.
For I have not spoken of my selfe: but the father which sent me he gave me a commaundemet what I shuld saye and what I shuld speake.
