uYohana 12
1 Mahiku mutandatu ze ikili ipasaka, uYesu ai wendile ku Bethania, kai ukoli uLazaro, nuanso nai umiukilye ku puma mu ashi.
Then, six days before the Passover, Yeshua came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Ila akamuzipilililya indya nia mpindi kuko, nu Martha akamuaiilya, itungo nilanso uLazaro ai watulaa ung'wi ao nua awo nai ikie mu ndya palung'wi nu Yesu,
So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
3 Hangi uMariamu akahola i ratili a manyukiilo nai azipigwe ku nadro nziza, ikete nsailo nkulu, akamupuguhila uYesu mu migulu, nu kumupyagula i migulu ku nsingi ni akwe; ito lihi likizula u unyunki nua manyunkiilo.
Therefore Miriam took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Yeshua’s feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4 uYuda Iskariote, ung'wi nua awo ia manyisigwa akwe, naiza yuyo nuika mugumaniilya uYesu, akaligitya.
Then Judah Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 Ku niki i manyunkiilo aya shanga aza aguigwe ku dinari magana ataatu nu kinkiiligwa i aula?”
“Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
6 Nu ng'wenso ai uligitilye nanso shanga kuaisiilya aula, ila ku nsoko ai waatuilee mii; ung'wenso yuyo ai watuile uambiie i mbugulu a mpia hangi ai watuilee wiholaa ing'wi nai aiekilwe mung'wanso kunsoko akwe mukola.
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.
7 uYesu ai uligiyilye, muleke waike nukete ku nsoko a luhiku nula uikwi nu ane.
But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8 i aula mukutula nienso mahiku ihi, kuiti shanga mukutula nu nene mahiku ihi.”
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9 Iti gwa i umbi ikulu ni la Ayahudi nai alijaa kulinga nia kina uYesu ukoli kuko, ni eso akapembya shanga kunsoko ang'wa Yesu duu. Ila amihenge nu Petro nai umiulilye kupuma mu ashi.
A large crowd therefore of the Judeans learnt that he was there; and they came, not for Yeshua’s sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Ni enso i akulu a kuhani akazipya lukani iti amubulage u Lazaro;
But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11 ndogoelyo kunsoko ayo imakani akwe idu mu Ayahudi ai alongoe yao nu kumuhiila uYesu
because on account of him many of the Judeans went away and believed in Yeshua.
12 Nu luhiku nula kabiili lakwe i umbi ikulu ai lizile mu siku kuu. Nai akija kina uYesu upembilye ku Yerusalemu,
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Yeshua was coming to Jerusalem,
13 ai ahoile i ntambi nia makota a mitende nu kupuma kunzi kulongola kumusingiilya hangi akakua iyogo, “Hosiana Ukendepilwe nuanso nu pembilye ku lina nila Mukulu, Mutemi nua Israeli.”
they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hoshia'na! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”
14 uYesu ai umuligilye u ng'waa ndogwe akanankila; anga uu nai ukiliseigwe.
Yeshua, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 Leka kitumba munanso nua Sayuni; goza, uMutemi nuako upembilye, unankie ng'waa ndogwe.”
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
16 Amanyisigwa akwe shanga ai amalingile imakani aya apo u ng'wandyo; kuiti uYesu nai wakakuligwa, papo nai akimbukiiye nia kina imakani aya ai ukiliseigwe nuanso nia kina itumile imakani aya kitalakwe.
His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Yeshua was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
17 Uugwa idale ilo nila antu nai akoli palung'wi nu Yesu itungo nai umitangile uLazaro kupuma mu kibiila, aka kuiila ku auya.
The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it.
18 Hangi ai ituile ga ni kunsoko iyi kina idale nila antu ai alongoe kumusingiilya ku nsoko ai igulye kina witumile ikilingasiilyo nikanso.
For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 iAfarisayo akitambulya i enso ku enso, Goza, itungili shanga muhumile kituma kihi; goza, u unkumbigulu walongolaa kitalakwe.”
The Pharisees therefore said amongst themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
20 Itungili ang'wi a Ayahudi ai atulaa mu kati ao mu awo nai atulaa alongoe kipolya mu siku kuu.
Now there were certain Greeks amongst those who went up to worship at the feast.
21 Awa ai amuhangile uFilipo, naiza upumiie ku Bethsaida a ku Galilaya, akamulompa aze ligitya, “Mukulu, usese kukete nsula kumihenga uYesu.”
Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Yeshua.”
22 uFilipo akalongola akamutambuila uAndrea; uAndrea nu Filipo akalongola nu kumutambuila uYesu.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Yeshua.
23 uYesu aka asukiilya, Isaa apika ku nsoko a ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu ku kuligwa.
Yeshua answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 Huiili, huiili, kumutambuila, imbeu a ngano anga ileke kugwa mi ihi nu kusha, ikiee uu ing'wene duu, ila anga ishe, ikupa nkali idu.
Most certainly 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.
25 Nuanso nululoilwe u likalo nu lakwe ukululimilya; ila nuanso nu lubipiwe u likalo nu lakwe mu unkumbigulu uwu uku uhuja ga u upanga nua kali na kali. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Muntu wihi anga wanzailye unene, nu antyate, nu nene kunkoli, papo nu munyamilimo nuane nuikatula ukoli. Muntu wihi nuikanzaiilya, uTata ukumukulya.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honour him.
27 Itungili i nkolo ane ahusha: nu nene ndigitye uli? 'Tata, ungune mu saa iyi” kuiti ingi ku isigo ili nimipikiie i saa iyi.
“Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.
28 Tata, ulikulye i lina ni lako.” Uugwa luli lukaza nu kuligitya “Nalikulyaa nu nene kulikulya hangi.”
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
29 Ila ianza nai limikile pakupi ni enso akija, akaligitya nia kina yatula nu mulilo, Auya ai aligitilye, “Malaika witambuuye nu ng'wenso.”
Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
30 uYesu akasukiilya nu kuligitya, Luli ulu shanga luzile ku nsoko ane, ila kunsoko anyu.
Yeshua answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Itungili ulamulwa nua unkumbigulu uwu ukoli; Itungili u mukulu nua unkumbigulu uwu ukugung'wa kunzi.
Now is the judgement of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 Nu nene anga nyansulwe migulya ihi, kualuta ihi kitalane.”
And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 Ai wituntile nanso azelagiila ingi nshile kii nuikasha.
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Ianza likasukiilya, “Usese kigulye mi lagiilyo nia kina uKristo ukikie i kali na kali. Nu ewe kuligitya uli, 'Ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu kusinja wanyansulwe migulya'? uyu u ng'wana nua muntu ingi nyenyu?” (aiōn g165)
The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Messiah remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
35 Ila uYesu aka atambuila, “Welu ukoli palung'wi nu nyenye itungo iniino. Longoli nsoko mukete u welu, iti kina i kiti kileke kumuhumiilya. Nuanso nui longolaa mukiti shanga ulingile kulongoe.
Yeshua therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
36 Mukili mukete u welu.” uYesu ai umaligitilye ni hangi akalongola yakwe akipiha aleke kumihenga.
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Yeshua said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
37 Ga ni iti uYesu aiwitumile ilingasiilyo idu kinya nianso ntongeela ao, akili shanga akahuiila.
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
38 iti lipikiile ikani ni lang'wa Isaya, nai uligitilye; “Mukulu, ingi nyenyu nai uhuiie inkani yitu? Nu mukono nua Mukulu ukunukuiwe nyenyu?”
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Yiyo nsoko ni anso shanga ai ahuiie, ndogoelyo uIsaya ai uligitilye hangi,
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “Uapokuuye imiho, nu kuitenda nkaku i nkolo ni ao; aleke kihenga ku miho ao nu kulinga ku nkolo ni ao, nu kugunika nu nene nikaanguna.”
“He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”
41 uIsaya ai uligitilye imakani nanso kunsoko ai wihengile ikulyo nilang'wa Yesu nu kuligitya inkani niakwe.
Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Ga ni iti, ga i akulu idu ai amuhuiie uYesu; kuiti ku nsoko iAfarisayo, shanga ai alapile iti aleke kubagulwa ni Itekeelo.
Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,
43 Ai iloile ikulyo ni ana adamu kukila ikulyo nilipembeeye kung'wa Itungo.
for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
44 uYesu akanyansula ululi nu kuligitya, “Nuanso nunihuiie unene, shanga unihuiie unene duu ila nu ng'wenso nai undagiiye unene,
Yeshua cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 nuanso nunihengile unene umihengile nuanso nai undagiiye.
He who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Unene nzile anga welu mu unkumbigulu iti kila muntu nu nihuiie unene waleke kikie mu kiti.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 Anga itule umuntu wihi ukija imakani ane kuiti waleke kumaamba, unene shanga kumulamula; ndogoelyo shanga ainzile iti nu ulamule u unkumbigulu, ila nuugune u unkumbigulu.
If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Nuanso nui nihitaa unene hangi shanga wimagombaa imakani ane, ukete nui mulamulaa; lukani nulanso ni nululigitilye lulo nulikamulamula uluhiku nula mpelo.
He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
49 Ndogoelyo unene shanga ai ndigitilye ku umi nuane du. Ila ingi Tata nai untwae, ng'wenso mukola ai undagiiye ni nikamatambula nu kumaligitya.
For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
50 Nu nene ningile nia kina ilagiilyo nilakwe ingi upanga nua kali na kali; ila nanso nikuligitya unene - anga uTata nai umbiie, uu gwa kulingitya kitalao.” (aiōnios g166)
I know that his commandment is eternal life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak.” (aiōnios g166)
