Yohana 12
1 Isikhu sita kabla ya ikhaha, u Yesu akhaluta khu Bethania, ukhyakhale u Lazaro, uyakhanchosinehe ukhuhuma khuwofye.
So then Jesus came six days before the Passover, to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead.
2 Po vakhamwandalela ekhatio lya ekhanalyakhemikhe ukhya, nu Martha akhambombela, usekhe ugwa u Lazaro akhale paninye vavala vakhatamile pakhyakho lya paninye no Yesu.
So they gave a dinner for him there, and Martha served it; but Lazarus was one of those who reclined with him at table.
3 Po u Mariamu akhatora elati ya mafuta gago gatengenesiwe nardo enonu, yeyo yelenesamani embakha, akhabukha u Yesu mmalunde, nukhupukhuta mmalunde khunjwele ncha mwene enyumba yoni yekhadega ekharufu ya amafuta (amanukato).
Then Mary took a pound of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over his feet, and wiped his feet with her hair, and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
4 Yuda Iskariote, yumo va vasiole vamwene, yuywa uyakheva ikhosaliti u Yesu, akhanchova,
Then said Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, who was about to betray him,
5 “Khekhi amafuta aga gakhagagonchiwe khukhela dinali mia tatu vakhavapewiwe avaganchu?”
"Why was not this perfume sold for fifty dollars, and the proceeds given to the poor?"
6 Vope akhaganchova ago, sio ikhova kolela ekhesa avaganchu, ulyakhova akhale indyesi: umwene veibite upakho gw khela alekotola baadhi ya vifyo vivekhiwe umwa khojili ya mwene.
This he said not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and, carrying the purse,
7 U Yesu akhanchova, “Indekhe avekhe ekhyalenakho khojili ya sikhu ya khosiela kholyone.
used to purloin what was put in it. Then said Jesus. "Let her alone. Against the day of my burial has she kept this;
8 Avaganchu mwiva navo isikhu nchoni; lene samukhave nune isikhu nchoni.”
for the poor you have with you always, but me you have not always."
9 Po elipoga elivakha lya Vayahudi povakhalumanya khuta u Yesu aleukhya, navakhincha, sio khwa Yesu tuu, ila vambone u Lazaro yuywa u Yesu akhasielyule ukhukhuma khuvofye.
When the great mass of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came not alone because of Jesus, but to see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Navope avavakha va vatekhenchi vakhedekhana ili vabude u Lazaro;
And the chief priests plotted to kill Lazarus too,
11 maana khiyili ya mwene avingi Avayakhudi vakhaluta vakhamwedekha u Yesu.
because it was on his account that many of the Jews were leaving them, and beginning to believe on Jesus.
12 Isikhu ya vele elipoga divakha vakhincha khushelehe. Vavapolikhe ukhuta u Yesu ikhyincha kho Yerusalemu,
Next day the big crowd who had come up for the Passover heard that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem,
13 vakhatola amatawi ga mibekhe ga matende nokhokhoma khinji ukhuluta khu khopokhela nokhotova ekelele, “Khosana! Asayiwe uyikhyincha kholitawa lya Ntwa, Umbakha va Israeli.”
and taking branches from the palm trees went out to meet him, shouting, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord. Even Israel’s King!"
14 U Yesu akhapata umwa punda; kama uluyandekhiiwe,
And Jesus found a young ass and seated himself on it, as it is written,
15 “Usite, ukhudyada, ng'enja Sayuni; lola, Umbakha vakho ikhwincha, etogile emwana- punda.”
Fear not, daughter of Zion, Behold thy King cometh seated upon an ass’s colt.
16 Avasiole vamwene savakhageliwe ago pavotengolelo; u Yesu avile aginiwe, bakhopo povakhakombokha imbombo inchi akhasimba umwene nokhota vavombile imbombo inchi khomwene.
His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus had been glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written concerning him, and what they had done to him.
17 Po lela elipoga lya vanu vavo vakhale popaninye nu Yesu vova mwelangile u Lazaro ukhuma ndipomba, vakholola khuvange.
Meanwhile the crowd which was with him when he summoned Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, kept witnessing.
18 Po yekhale khosababu eye ukhuta elipoga lya vanu vakhalotile khukho pokhela khusababu vakhapolikhe ukhuta akhavombile eishara eyo.
For this reason, too, the crowd came to meet him, because they had heard about this sign which he had done.
19 Avamafarisayo vakhonchovana vavo kho vavo, “Lola, leno samukhawesye ukhuvomba khokhoni; lola, ekhelunga khelutile khumwene.”
Then the Pharisees said among themselves. "You see! You can do nothing! Look! The world is gone after him!"
20 Po avange avayunani vakhale miongoni mwa vala avakhale valekolota khu khesaya khu shelekhe.
Now there were certain Greeks among those who had come up to worship during the Passover feast;
21 Ava vakhandotela u Filipo, yuywa akhomile kho Bethsaida ya Galilaya, vakhadava vakhanchova, “Intwa, ufye twinogwa akhombona u Yesu.”
these came to Philip of Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. "Sir," they said, "we want to see Jesus."
22 U Filipo akhalota akhombola u Andrea; u Andrea nu Filipo vakhalota nokhombola u Yesu.
Philip went and told Andrew. Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. Jesus answered.
23 U Yesu akhanda, akhanchova, lene yefikhe khojili ya mwana va Adamu ukhuginiwa.
"The hour is come that the Son of man should be glorified.
24 Ninchova, ninchova, nikhovavola, epunje ya ngano yegasite ukhugwa ikelunga yakhafya, yitama ekhali yela yela yene, po yengafye, yikhala isekhe imbakha.
In solemn truth I tell you that except a kernel of wheat fall into the ground and die, it remains a single kernel; but if it die it bears a great crop.
25 Umwene uyavoganile uwomi wa mwene ikhovoyancha; khoba uyikalala uwomi wa mwene ikelunga uma ikheponya khata uwomi wa sikhu nchoni. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life loses it; and he who regards not his life in this world shall keep it for eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Umunu yoyoni uyikhombombela une, ang'onge; uponelepo une, po nayosukhya vango ivapwale. Umunu yeyoni uyakheva ikhombombela, udada ikhoginya.
If any one is ready to serve me, let him follow me; and where I am there shall my servant be also. If any man is ready to serve me, him will my Father honor.
27 Leno inumbula yango yesikhitikhe na yone nenchove ndakhekhi'? 'Dada, unyokhole isaliinchi'? Khulugano ulu nefikhe isainchi.
Now is my soul disquieted. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? Nay, for this very cause I am come to this hour.
28 Daada, leginiwe elitawa lyakho.” Po esawoti yekhencha ukhuma khokyanya nokhonchova, neligininche nayone nikhdeginya khange.”
Father, glorify thy name!" Whereupon there came a voice from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."
29 Po lipoga elekhemile jilani navope vakha polekha, vakhanchova vakhata, khuvile numwongulumo. Avange vakhanchova, “Usukhwa inchova nave.”
Then the crowd who stood around and heard it, said, "It thundered!" But others said, "An angel has spoken to him."
30 U Yesu akhanda akhanchova, esawoti eye sayekhinche kholyone, bali kholyomwe.
"It is not for my sake," answered Jesus, "that the voice came, but for your sakes.
31 Leno uvokhegi wa khelonga ekhe khovole: Umbakha va khelunga ekhe itagiwa khonji.
Now is a judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be driven out.
32 Nayone nengotojiwe khokyanya ikhelonga, nikhovakwega voni kholyone.”
"AND I, IF I BE LIFTED UP FROM THE EARTH, WILL DRAW ALL MEN UNTO MYSELF."
33 Akhanchova ago akhavonesya wofye wokhi uvoyakheva ifya.
(In saying this he was signifying by what kind of death he was to die.)
34 Elipoga lekhanda, “Ufye topolikhe ululagele ukhuta u Klisiti itama khata isikhu nchoni. Nayove wita ndakhekhi, 'Umwana va Adamu lazima inoliwe khokyanya'? Uyu Umwana va munu veni?” (aiōn g165)
Then the people answered. "We have heard out of the Law that the Christ abides forever. What do you mean by ‘The Son of man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of man?" (aiōn g165)
35 Po u Yesu akhavavola, ulumuli lungave popaninye numwe usekhe idebe. Mulutage ulukhova mule nulumuli, ekhisi yiwesya yevibate. Uyilota mukhisi salumanyile ukhyilota.
"The Light is among you a little longer," answered Jesus. "Walk while you have the Light, lest darkness overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
36 Ulyakhova mnchige nulumuli, mulyedekhe ulumuli ulya mpate ukhova vana va lumuli.” U Yesu akhanchova ago po akhaluta akhefikha vasite ukhumbona.
While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become Sons of Light."
37 Ulyakhova u Yesu avombile amambo mingi khovolongolo khovene, bado savakha mwedekhe
With these words Jesus went away and hid himself from them. But although he had wrought such signs in their presence, still they did not believe in him.
38 ili letimele elimenyu lyanyamalago u Isaya, elyakhonchovile: “Intwa, veni uyanchipolikhe ikhabali ncheto? Nekhevokho khantwa afunuliwe veni?”
So the words spoken by Isaiah, the prophet, were fulfilled. Lord, who hath believed our message, And to whom hath the Arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Ndiomana avene savakhamwedekhe ulyakhova u Isaya akhanchovile khange,
This was why they could not believe, because Isaiah said again.
40 “Avabudile amikho, ayevikhile ngafu inumbula yavene; vasite ukhulola khomikho gavene navakhalumanya khunumbula ncha vene, ayavikhwokhokha na yone nikhovaponya.”
He hath blinded their eyes and make their hearts hard, Lest they should see with their eyes, perceive with their minds, And should turn, and I should heal them.
41 U Isaya akhanchova amamenyu ago ulya khova akhavowene uvovakha wa Yesu nakhanchova ikhabari ncha mwene.
Isaiah uttered these words because he saw his glory, and he spoke of him.
42 Ulyakhova, ata avavakha vingi vakhamwedikhe u Yesu; ulyakhova Avamafarisayo, savakhedekhe ukhuta ayavitengiwa na avamasinagogi.
Nevertheless, even among the rulers many believed on him, but did not confess in on account of the Pharisees, for fear lest they be put out of the Synagogue.
43 Vakhanogile uluginyo ulya vanu khulikho uluginyo ulolukhomana nu Ngoluve.
For they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.
44 U Yesu akhatoncha esawati no khonchova, “Yuywa ikhonyedekha une, sikhonyedekha une tuu bali nayoywa akhasukhile une,
Now Jesus, speaking in a loud voice, had said.
45 navope uyikhombona une ikhombona yuywa asukhile.
"He who believes in me believes not in me, but in Him who sent me; and he who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Une ninchile kama lumuli ikelunga ili khela munu uyikhonyedekha une asite ukhutama mkhisi.
Like light am I come into the world, so that no one who believes in me may remain in darkness.
47 Ingave umu yeyoni ikhogapolekha amamenyu gango lakini asite ukhugibata, une sanikhon'gega; maana sanekhinche ili nekhege ekhelunga, bali nevokhole avakelunga.
And if any one hears my words and does not keep them, it is not I who judge him; for I am not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 Yuywa ikhobela une nayoywa sikhyedekha amamenyu gango, nayoywa ikhongega: elimenyu ilyo lelyo nenchovile lyulyene lelangega esikhu ya mwisyo.
He who rejects me, and does not receive my words, has indeed a judge. The message which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the Last Day,
49 Une sanekhenchove khunumbula yango tuu. Ve Dada uyakhan'gelikhe yuywa umwene andaginche aga yakheva ninchova.
because I have never spoken on my own authority, but the Father himself who sent me gave me commandment what to say and what words to speak.
