Yohana 11
1 Po umunu yumo elitawa lyamwene ve Lazaro akhale itamu. Akhakhomile kho Bethania, ikhejiji khya Mariamu na dada vamwene u Martha.
Mtu mmoja aitwaye Lazaro, mwenyeji wa Bethania, alikuwa mgonjwa. (Kijiji cha Bethania kilikuwa mahali walipokaa Maria na Martha, dada yake.
2 Akhale ve Mariamu yuywa akhabakha Untwa amafuta nukhufuta amalunde gamwene kho jwele ncha mwene yuywa ulokololwe va Lazaro akhale itamu.
Maria ndiye yule aliyempaka Bwana marashi na kumpangusa kwa nywele zake. Lazaro, kaka yake, ndiye aliyekuwa mgonjwa.)
3 Po avadada ava vakhasukha endomi khya Yesu nokhochova, “Intwa, ulole ugane vakho itamu.”
Basi, hao dada wakatuma ujumbe huu kwa Yesu: “Bwana, rafiki yako ni mgonjwa!”
4 U Yesu akhapolekha akhachova, “Uvutamu uvo sio wakhufya, ulwakhova, uwa voyane wa Nguluve uswambe va Nguluve agimive kho votamu.”
Yesu aliposikia hivyo akasema, “Ugonjwa huo hautaleta kifo, ila ni kwa ajili ya kumtukuza Mungu; ameugua ili kwa njia hiyo Mwana wa Mungu atukuzwe.”
5 U Yesu akhanganile u Martha nu dada vamwene u Lazaro.
Yesu aliwapenda Martha, dada yake na Lazaro.
6 Avile apolikhe ukhata u Lazaro itamu, u Yesu akhatama isikhu ivele upwakhale.
Alipopata habari kwamba Lazaro ni mgonjwa, Yesu aliendelea kukaa mahali hapo alipokuwa kwa siku mbili zaidi.
7 Popoele akhavavola avasyole vamwene, “Tuvokhe khovoyahudi khange.”
Kisha akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Twendeni tena Yudea!”
8 Avasyole vakhambola, “Imanyesi, vangagele ukhututa na mawe, nuve vunogwa ukhukilivokha ukhya khange?”
Wanafunzi wakamwambia, “Mwalimu! Muda mfupi tu umepita tangu Wayahudi walipotaka kukuua kwa mawe, nawe unataka kwenda huko tena?”
9 U Yesu akhanda, “Amasaa gapamusi galekumi na mbili? Umunu ungenda pamusi siwesya ukhyekovencha, ulukhuva ilola khulumuli lwa pamusi.
Yesu akajibu, “Je, saa za mchana si kumi na mbili? Basi, mtu akitembea mchana hawezi kujikwaa kwa kuwa anauona mwanga wa ulimwengu huu.
10 Hata evo, angagende pakhelo, ikhyekovencha ulyakhova ulumuli lumoli igati mumwene.”
Lakini mtu akitembea usiku atajikwaa kwa maana mwanga haumo ndani yake.”
11 U Yesu akhachova amambo aga, baada ya mambo aga, “Urafiki vato u Lazaro ugonelile, nilota khukhusisimula ukhuma mutulo.”
Yesu alipomaliza kusema maneno hayo, akawaambia, “Rafiki yetu Lazaro amelala, lakini mimi nitakwenda kumwamsha.”
12 Po avasyole vakhambola, “Intwa, inave agonelile, isisimokha.
Wanafunzi wake wakamwambia, “Bwana, ikiwa amelala, basi atapona.”
13 Usekhe ugwa u Yesu alegonchova ikhabari ncha lofye wa Lazaro, avene vakhata inchova ikhabari ncha toro.
Wao walidhani kwamba alikuwa amesema juu ya kulala usingizi, kumbe alikuwa amesema juu ya kifo cha Lazaro.
14 U Yesu akhanchova pavovalafu, “U Lazaro afyile.
Basi, Yesu akawaambia waziwazi, “Lazaro amekufa;
15 Nekhowikhe numwe, sanekhalepo ukhu ilimpate ukhunyedekha. Tuvokhe khumwene.”
Lakini nafurahi kwa ajili yenu kwamba sikuwako huko, ili mpate kuamini. Haya, twendeni kwake.”
16 Po u Tomaso, uyakhelangiwo lipancha, akhavavola avasyole vamwene, “Nayofye tevukhe tukhafye popaninye nu Yesu.”
Thoma (aitwaye Pacha) akawaambia wanafunzi wenzake, “Twendeni nasi tukafe pamoja naye!”
17 U Yesu voinchile, akhavono u Lazaro tayari alendipomba isikhu inne.
Yesu alipofika huko alikuta Lazaro amekwisha kaa kaburini kwa siku nne.
18 Yope e Bethania yakhale kalibu ne Yerusalemu uvutali ikilomita arobaini na tano ulu.
Kijiji cha Bethania kilikuwa karibu na Yerusalemu umbali upatao kilomita tatu.
19 Avingi Avayahudi vakhincha khwa Martha nu Mariamu ukhuvasuvancha khya ajili ya lukololwe vavene.
Wayahudi wengi walikuwa wamefika kwa Martha na Maria kuwafariji kwa kifo cha kaka yao.
20 U Martha akhapolekha ukhuta u Yesu ikhwincha, akhaluta akhagane nave u Mariamu akhendelela ukhutama khukaya.
Basi, Martha aliposikia kwamba Yesu alikuwa anakuja, akaenda kumlaki; lakini Maria alibaki nyumbani.
21 U Martha akhambula u Yesu, “Intwa, ukhale uvinchage apa, ungancha vango sakha ifya.
Martha akamwambia Yesu, “Bwana, kama ungalikuwa hapa, kaka yangu hangalikufa!
22 Ata leno, nelumanyile ukhuta lyolyoni eleyakheva vudova ukhuma khya Ngolove, wipata.”
Lakini najua kwamba hata sasa chochote utakachomwomba Mungu, atakupa.”
23 U Yesu akhavola, unyanchavo isisimukha khange.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Kaka yako atafufuka.”
24 U Martha akhambola, nelumanyile ukhutu isisimokha isikhu ya mwisyo.”
Martha akamjibu, “Najua kwamba atafufuka wakati wa ufufuo, siku ya mwisho.”
25 U Yesu akhambola, “Une nene wofufuo howomi; yuywa ikhonyedekha, atakama isisi mokha, ataleno itamaga;
Yesu akamwambia, “Mimi ndimi ufufuo na uzima. Anayeniamini mimi hata kama anakufa, ataishi:
na kila anayeishi na kuniamini, hatakufa kamwe. Je, waamini hayo?” (aiōn g165)
27 Akhavavola, “Sawa, Intwa mkhokhwedekho uveve veve Klisiti, Mwana va Ngolove, uyikhwincha nkelunga.”
Martha akamwambia, “Ndiyo Bwana! Naamini kwamba wewe ndiwe Kristo, Mwana wa Mungu, yule ajaye ulimwenguni.”
28 Avile achovile ile, akhaluta khukhomwelanga udada vamwene u Mariamu khesili. Akhachova, “Umanyesi aleapa khokhwelanga.”
Baada ya kusema hayo, Martha alikwenda kumwita Maria, dada yake, akamwabia faraghani, “Mwalimu yuko hapa, anakuita.”
29 U Mariamu avile apolikhe eve, akhema khembe ve akhaluta kya Yesu.
Naye aliposikia hivyo, akainuka mara, akamwendea Yesu.
30 Nu Yesu akhava sijile tayali ikhejiji, akhavile bado khukhya vagine nu Martha.
Yesu alikuwa hajaingia kijijini, ila alikuwa bado mahali palepale Martha alipomlaki.
31 Avayahudi vakhale nu Mariamu munyumba navavo vakhalemo visovancha, vavile vikhombona ikhyinokha khembeve ikhoma khonji, vakhakonga; vavile vatile vilota khulipomba khyilela ukwa.
Basi, Wayahudi waliokuwa nyumbani pamoja na Maria wakimfariji walipomwona ameinuka na kutoka nje ghafla, walimfuata. Walidhani alikuwa anakwenda kaburini kuomboleza.
32 Po u Mariamu, avile afikhe pala u Yesu akhambona, akhagwa pasi pamalonde gamwene nukhumbula, “Intwa, ukhale uvinchage apa, ulukololyango nda safyile.”
Basi, Maria alipofika mahali pale Yesu alipokuwa na kumwona, alipiga magoti, akamwabia, “Bwana, kama ungalikuwa hapa, kaka yangu hangalikufa!”
33 U Yesu avile ambwene ilela, nawayahudi avinchile papaninwe valen'kolela voni, akhalola munumbula nukhusikhitekha;
Yesu alipomwona analia, na wale Wayahudi waliokuja pamoja naye wanalia pia, alijawa na huzuni na kufadhaika moyoni.
34 Akhanchova, “Mgoninche ndapi? vakhambola, Intwa, ancha olole.”
Kisha akawauliza, “Mlimweka wapi?” Wakamwambia, “Bwana, njoo uone.”
35 U Yesu akhalela.
Yesu akalia machozi.
36 Po Avayahudi vakhanchova, “Mulole wagonile u Lazaro!”
Basi, Wayahudi wakasema, “Tazameni jinsi alivyompenda!”
37 Avange vakhanchova, “Sio uyu, umunu uyabungwile amikho uyusilola, akhaiwesya ukhumbekha umunu uyu asite ukhufya?”
Lakini baadhi yao wakasema, “Je, huyu aliyemfumbua macho yule kipofu, hakuweza kumfanya Lazaro asife?”
38 Po u Yesu, woilela munumbula mumwene, akhaluta ndipomba, yekhale manga, iliwe livekhwiwe pakhyanya pamwene.
Basi, Yesu akiwa amehuzunika tena moyoni, akafika kaburini. Kaburi lenyewe lilikuwa pango, na lilikuwa limefunikwa kwa jiwe.
39 U Yesu akhanchova, “Khencha eliwe.” U Martha, udada vamwene no Lazaro, yuywa afyile, akhambola u Yesu, “Intwa, khusekhe ugu, umbele gwiva govolile ulyakhova avile muvofye khosikhu inne.”
Yesu akasema, “Ondoeni hilo jiwe!” Martha, dada yake huyo aliyekufa, akamwambia, “Bwana, amekwishaanza kunuka; amekaa kaburini siku nne!”
40 U Yesu ambola, “Sanekhavavole ukhuta, inave ukhunyedekha, wukhovovono uvovakhuwa Ngolove?”
Yesu akamwambia, “Je, sikukwambia kwamba ukiamini utaona utukufu wa Mungu?”
41 Po vakhakhencha eliwe. U Yesu akhinula amikho khokyanya nukhunchova, “Baba, nimwalencha ulyakhova vakhomulekhencha.
Basi, wakaliondoa lile jiwe. Yesu akatazama juu mbinguni, akasema, “Nakushukuru Baba kwa kuwa wewe wanisikiliza.
42 Nelemanyile ukhuta vukhomolekhencha khela isekhe, ulyakhova ukusanyikho gwemile ukhunyedekha ukhuta veve usukhile.”
Najua kwamba unanisikiliza daima. Lakini nimesema hayo kwa ajili ya watu hawa waliopo hapa ili wapate kuamini kwamba wewe ndiwe uliyenituma.”
43 Avile anchovile aga, akhalela esawoti embakha, “Lazaro, khuma khonji!”
Alipokwisha sema hayo, akaita kwa sauti kubwa: “Lazaro! Toka nje!”
44 Uyafyile akhakhoma khonji ankongiwe amavokho na malunde, khumikho ankongiwe ekhefambala.” U Yesu akhanchova, “Ifungule alutage.”
Huyo aliyekuwa amekufa akatoka nje, huku amefungwa sanda miguu na mikono, na uso wake umefunikwa. Yesu akawaambia, “Mfungueni, mkamwache aende zake.”
45 Po Avayahudi avingi vavile vinchile khwa Mariamu nukhulola u Yesu ekhya vombile, vakhamwedekha;
Basi, Wayahudi wengi waliokuwa wamefika kwa Maria walipoona kitendo hicho alichokifanya Yesu wakamwamini.
46 Avange lakhaluta khuva Mafarisayo khukhavavola amambo agavombile u Yesu.
Lakini baadhi yao walikwenda kwa Mafarisayo wakatoa taarifa ya jambo hilo alilofanya Yesu.
47 Po avavakha va vatekheji na Vamafarisayo vakhakusanyekha popaninye ndi balasa nukhunchova, “Tuvomba ndakhihi? Umunu uyu ivomba amambo mingi.
kwa hiyo makuhani wakuu na Mafarisayo wakafanya kikao cha Baraza kuu, wakasema, “Tufanye nini? Mtu huyu anafanya ishara nyingi mno.
48 Tungave tukhondekha mwene, voni vikhomwedekha; Avarumi vikhwincha vitola fyoni imali ncheto nekhelonga kheto.”
Tukimwacha tu watu wote watamwamini, nao Waroma watakuja kuliharibu Hekalu letu na taifa letu!”
49 Ata evo, umunu yumu pavene, ve Kayafa, uyakhale intekheji imbukha umwakha ugwa, akhavavola, “Samkhemanyile khokhoni.
Hapo, mmoja wao aitwaye Kayafa, ambaye alikuwa Kuhani Mkuu mwaka huo, akawaambia, “Ninyi hamjui kitu!
50 Samusaga ukhuta yifaa kholyomwe ukhuta umunu yumo inogiwa ukhufya khujili ya vanu khulikho ukhufyu ekhelonga khyoni.”
Je, hamwoni kwamba ni afadhali kwenu mtu mmoja afe kwa ajili ya watu, kuliko taifa zima liangamizwe?”
51 Aga sakhanchove mwene, po umwene, ulwakhova akhale atekheji imbakha umwakha gola, akhalagwile ukhuta u Yesu ifya khokhelunga;
Yeye hakusema hivyo kwa hiari yake mwenyewe, bali kwa vile alikuwa Kuhani Mkuu mwaka huo, alibashiri kwamba Yesu atakufa kwa ajili ya taifa lao;
52 Sio ekhelunga khine, ili u Yesu apate velevole ukhuvakusanya avana va Ngolove avagavanyikhe sekhemu eye neye.
na wala si kwa ajili yao tu, bali pia apate kuwaleta pamoja watoto wa Mungu waliotawanyika.
53 Ukhuma esikhu eyo nukhyendelela vakhapanga enjela ya khubuda u Yesu.
Basi, tangu siku hiyo viongozi wa Wayahudi walifanya mipango ya kumwua Yesu.
54 U Yesu sakhagende khange pavovalafu khuva yakhudi, akhakhega pala nokholota khohelunga jilani nolokove usekhemu yikhwelangiwa Efraimu. Apo akhatama na vasyole.
Kwa hiyo, Yesu hakutembea tena hadharani kati ya Wayahudi, bali alitoka hapo, akaenda mahali karibu na jangwa, katika mji uitwao Efraimu. Akakaa huko pamoja na wanafunzi wake.
55 Ekhakho khya Vayahudi khekhale jilani avingi vakhatoga ukhuluta khu Yerusalemu khonji ya khelunga wosakhefikhe ekhaha ili vapate ukhwesukha vavo.
Sikukuu ya Wayahudi ya Pasaka ilikuwa karibu, na watu wengi walikwenda Yerusalemu ili wajitakase kabla ya sikukuu hiyo.
56 Valenkondonda u Yesu, nukhuchova khela muu vovemile pakhekalu, msaga khehi? Ukhuta sikhwicha khushelekhe?”
Basi, wakawa wanamtafuta Yesu; nao walipokusanyika pamoja Hekaluni wakaulizana, “Mwaonaje? Yaonekana kwamba haji kabisa kwenye sikukuu, au sivyo?”
57 Usekhe ugwa avavakha va vatekheji na Vamafalisayo vavile, vakhominchi ululagero ukhuta ave yomo ikholuma u Yesu upwalepo, inogiwa ukhumya endomi ili vamwibate.
Makuhani wakuu na Mafarisayo walikuwa wametoa amri kwamba mtu akijua mahali aliko Yesu awaarifu kusudi wamtie nguvuni.
