< Yohanna 11 >

1 To, an yi wani mutum mai suna Lazarus wanda ya yi rashin lafiya. Shi daga Betani ne, ƙauyen su Maryamu da’yar’uwarta Marta.
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.
2 Maryamun nan kuwa, wadda ɗan’uwanta Lazarus yake rashin lafiya, ita ce ta zuba wa Ubangiji turare ta kuma goge ƙafafunsa da gashin kanta.
It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.
3 Saboda haka’yan’uwansa mata suka aika da saƙo wa Yesu cewa, “Ubangiji, wannan da kake ƙauna yana rashin lafiya.”
The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick.”
4 Sa’ad da ya ji haka, sai Yesu ya ce, “Wannan rashin lafiya ba zai kai ga mutuwa ba. A’a, sai dai don a ɗaukaka Allah a kuma ɗaukaka Ɗan Allah ta wurin wannan.”
But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”
5 Yesu kuwa yana ƙaunar Marta da’yar’uwarta da kuma Lazarus.
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 Duk da haka sa’ad da ya ji Lazarus ba shi da lafiya, sai ya ƙara kwana biyu a inda yake.
When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
7 Sai ya ce wa almajiransa, “Mu koma Yahudiya.”
Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again.”
8 Sai suka ce, “Rabbi, ba da daɗewa ba ne Yahudawa suka nemi su jajjefe ka, duk da haka za ka koma can?”
The disciples asked him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you. Are you going there again?”
9 Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Ba sa’a goma sha biyu ce yini guda ba? Mutumin da yake tafiya da rana ba zai yi tuntuɓe ba gama yana ganin hasken duniyan nan.
Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 Sai a sa’ad da yake tafiya da dare ne zai yi tuntuɓe, don ba shi da haske.”
But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”
11 Bayan ya faɗa haka, sai ya ƙara ce musu, “Abokinmu Lazarus ya yi barci, amma za ni in tashe shi.”
He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”
12 Almajiransa suka ce, “Ubangiji, in barci ne yake, to, ai, zai sami sauƙi.”
The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”
13 Yesu kuwa yana magana mutuwarsa ce, amma almajiransa suka ɗauka yana nufin barcin gaskiya ne.
Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
14 Saboda haka sai ya gaya musu a fili cewa, “Lazarus ya mutu,
So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.
15 amma saboda ku na yi farin ciki da ba na can, domin ku gaskata. Amma mu dai je wurinsa.”
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”
16 Sai Toma (wanda ake kira Didaimus) ya ce wa sauran almajiran, “Mu ma mu je, mu mutu tare da shi.”
Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s also go, that we may die with him.”
17 Da isowarsa, Yesu ya tarar Lazarus ya riga ya yi kwana huɗu a kabari.
So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
18 Betani bai kai mil biyu ba daga Urushalima,
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen stadia away.
19 Yahudawa da yawa kuwa suka zo wurin Marta da Maryamu don su yi musu ta’aziyya, saboda rasuwar ɗan’uwansu.
Many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.
20 Sa’ad da Marta ta ji cewa Yesu yana zuwa, sai ta fita don ta tarye shi, amma Maryamu ta zauna a gida.
Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.
21 Sai Marta ta ce wa Yesu, “Ubangiji, da kana nan da ɗan’uwana bai mutu ba.
Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.
22 Amma na san cewa ko yanzu ma Allah zai ba ka duk abin da ka roƙa.”
Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you.”
23 Yesu ya ce mata, “Ɗan’uwanki zai sāke tashi.”
Jesus said to her, “Your brother will rise again.”
24 Marta ta amsa ta ce, “Na sani zai sāke tashi a tashin matattu a rana ta ƙarshe.”
Martha said to him, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”
25 Yesu ya ce mata, “Ni ne tashin matattu da kuma rai. Duk wanda ya gaskata da ni zai rayu, ko ya mutu;
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.
26 kuma duk wanda yake raye ya kuma gaskata da ni ba zai taɓa mutuwa ba. Kin gaskata wannan?” (aiōn g165)
Whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” (aiōn g165)
27 Sai ta ce masa, “I, Ubangiji, na gaskata kai ne Kiristi, Ɗan Allah, mai zuwa cikin duniya.”
She said to him, “Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God’s Son, he who comes into the world.”
28 Bayan ta faɗa haka kuwa, sai ta koma ta je ta kira’yar’uwarta Maryamu a gefe. Ta ce, “Ga Malam ya zo, kuma yana kiranki.”
When she had said this, she went away and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, “The Teacher is here and is calling you.”
29 Sa’ad da Maryamu ta ji haka sai ta yi wuf ta tafi wurinsa.
When she heard this, she arose quickly and went to him.
30 Yesu dai bai riga ya shiga ƙauyen ba tukuna, har yanzu yana inda Marta ta tarye shi.
Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.
31 Da Yahudawan da suke tare da Maryamu a cikin gida, suke mata ta’aziyya, suka ga ta yi wuf ta fita, sai suka bi ta, suna tsammani za tă kabarin ne tă yi kuka a can.
Then the Jews who were with her in the house and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, “She is going to the tomb to weep there.”
32 Sa’ad da Maryamu ta kai inda Yesu yake, ta kuma gan shi, sai ta fāɗi a gabansa ta ce, “Ubangiji, da kana nan, da ɗan’uwana bai mutu ba.”
Therefore when Mary came to where Jesus was and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died.”
33 Da Yesu ya ga tana kuka, Yahudawan da suka zo tare da ita ma suna kuka, sai ya yi juyayi ƙwarai a ruhu ya kuma damu.
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned in the spirit and was troubled,
34 Sai ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Ina kuka sa shi?” Suka amsa suka ce, “Ubangiji zo ka gani.”
and said, “Where have you laid him?” They told him, “Lord, come and see.”
35 Yesu ya yi kuka.
Jesus wept.
36 Sai Yahudawa suka ce, “Dubi yadda yake ƙaunarsa!”
The Jews therefore said, “See how much affection he had for him!”
37 Amma waɗansunsu suka ce, “Anya, wanda ya buɗe wa makahon nan idanu, ba zai iya yin wani abu yă hana wannan mutum mutuwa ba?”
Some of them said, “Couldn’t this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?”
38 Yesu, har yanzu cike da juyayi, ya zo kabarin. Kogo ne da aka rufe bakin da dutse.
Jesus therefore, again groaning in himself, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39 Sai Yesu ya ce, “Ku kawar da dutsen.” Marta,’yar’uwan mamacin ta ce, “Ubangiji, yanzu, ai, zai yi wari, don yau kwanansa huɗu ke nan a can.”
Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.”
40 Sai Yesu ya ce, “Ban gaya miki cewa in kin gaskata za ki ga ɗaukakar Allah ba?”
Jesus said to her, “Didn’t I tell you that if you believed, you would see God’s glory?”
41 Saboda haka suka kawar da dutsen. Sa’an nan Yesu ya dubi sama ya ce, “Uba, na gode maka da ka saurare ni.
So they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you listened to me.
42 Na san kullum kakan saurare ni, na dai faɗa haka ne saboda amfanin mutanen nan da suke tsaitsaye, don su gaskata cewa kai ka aiko ni.”
I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude standing around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me.”
43 Sa’ad da ya faɗa haka, sai Yesu ya yi kira da babbar murya ya ce, “Lazarus, ka fito!”
When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”
44 Sai mamacin ya fito, hannuwansa da ƙafafunsa a daure da ƙyallayen lilin, fuskarsa kuwa an naɗe da mayafi. Yesu ya ce musu, “Ku tuɓe kayan bizo, ku bar shi yă tafi.”
He who was dead came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Free him, and let him go.”
45 Saboda haka Yahudawa da yawa da suka zo don su ziyarci Maryamu, suka kuma ga abin da Yesu ya yi, suka ba da gaskiya gare shi.
Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary and saw what Jesus did believed in him.
46 Amma waɗansunsu suka je wurin Farisiyawa suka gaya musu abin da Yesu ya yi.
But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things which Jesus had done.
47 Sai manyan firistoci da Farisiyawa suka kira taron Majalisa. Suka yi tambaya suna cewa, “Me muke yi ne? Ga mutumin nan yana yin abubuwan banmamaki masu yawa.
The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, “What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
48 In fa muka ƙyale shi ya ci gaba da haka, kowa zai gaskata da shi, Romawa kuma su zo su karɓe wurinmu su kuma ƙwace ƙasarmu.”
If we leave him alone like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”
49 Sai waninsu, mai suna Kayifas, wanda ya kasance babban firist a shekarar ya ce, “Ku dai ba ku san kome ba!
But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,
50 Ba ku gane ba, ai, gwamma mutum ɗaya yă mutu saboda mutane da duk ƙasar ta hallaka.”
nor do you consider that it is advantageous for us that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish.”
51 Bai faɗa haka bisa nufinsa ba, sai dai a matsayinsa na babban firist a shekarar, ya yi annabci ne cewa Yesu zai mutu saboda ƙasar Yahudawa,
Now he didn’t say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
52 ba don ƙasan nan kaɗai ba amma don yă tattaro’ya’yan Allah da suke warwatse ma, su zama ɗaya.
and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
53 Saboda haka, daga wannan rana suka ƙulla su ɗauke ransa.
So from that day forward they took counsel that they might put him to death.
54 Saboda haka Yesu bai ƙara tafiya a cikin Yahudawa a sarari ba. A maimako haka sai ya janye zuwa yankin kusa da hamada, a wani ƙauye da ake kira Efraim, inda ya zauna da almajiransa.
Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim. He stayed there with his disciples.
55 Sa’ad da lokaci ya yi kusa a yi Bikin Ƙetarewa na Yahudawa, da yawa suka haura daga ƙauyuka zuwa Urushalima, don su tsarkake kansu kafin Bikin Ƙetarewa.
Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand. Many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
56 Suka yi ta neman Yesu, da suke a tsaitsaye a filin haikali kuwa suka dinga tambayar juna, suna cewa, “Me kuka gani? Anya, zai zo Bikin kuwa?”
Then they sought for Jesus and spoke with one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think—that he isn’t coming to the feast at all?”
57 Manyan firistoci da Farisiyawa tuni sun riga sun yi umarni cewa duk wanda ya san inda Yesu yake, yă faɗa don su kama shi.
Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had commanded that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might seize him.
