Yohana 11
1 Basi munu mmonga lihina lya muene ajhele Lazaro alwaleghe. Ahomili Bethania, kijiji kya Mariamu ni dada jhake Martha.
Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.
2 Ajhele Mariamu jhola jhola jhaambakili Bwana Marhamu ni kumpolosya magolo gha muene kwa njuili sya muene, ambajhe ndongomunu Lazaro ajhele n'tamu.
It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother, Lazarus, was sick.
3 Ndipo dada abha bhalaghisiye bhujumbe kwa Yesu ni kujobha, “Bwana, langayi jhola jha un'ganili iluala.”
The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, "Lord, look, the one you love is sick."
4 Yesu bho apeliki akajobha, “Bhubhine obho bhwa mauti lepi, lakini, badala jhiake ni kwandabha jha utukufu bhwa K'yara ili kwamba Mwana ghwa K'yara abhwesiayi kutukusibhwa mu Bhutamu obhu.”
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 an'ganili Martha ni dada jhiake ni Lazaro.
Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 Bho apeliki kujha Lazaro iluala, Yesu atamili magono mabhele zaidi mahali paajhele.
When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.
7 Ndipo baada jha ele akabhajobhela bhanafunzi bha muene, “Tulotayi Uyahudi kabhele.”
Then after this he said to the disciples, "Let us go into Judea again."
8 Bhanafunzi bhakan'jobhela, “Rabi, Bhayahudi bhajhele bhijaribu kukuponda maganga, ni bhebhe ghwilonda kukerebhuka kabhele?”
The disciples told him, "Rabbi, the Jewish leaders were just trying to stone you, and are you going there again?"
9 Yesu akabhajibu, “Saa sya pamusi si kumi na mbili? Munu paigenda pamusi ibhwesya lepi kwikungufula, kwandabha ibhona kwa munu jha pamusi.
Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.
10 Hata efyo, ikajhiajhi ibetakugenda pakilu, ibetakwikungufula kwa ndabha nuru ijhelepi mugati mwa muene.”
But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."
11 Yesu akajobha mambo agha, akabhajobhela, “Rafiki jhitu Lazaro agonili, lakini nilota ili kwamba nikabhayi kunjumusya kuhomela mu ligono.”
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 Ndipo bhanafunzi bhakan'jobhela, “Bwana, kama agonili, ibetakujhumuka.
Then the disciples said to him, "Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover."
13 Wakati obho Yesu ajhele ilongela habari sya kifo kya Lazaro, lakini bhene bhafikilaghe ilongela juu jha kugona lugono.
Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.
14 Ndipo Yesu akalongela nabhu wazi wazi, “Lazaro afuili.
So Jesus said to them plainly then, "Lazarus is dead.
15 Nihobhwiki kwandabha jhinu, kujha najhelepi khola ili kwamba mkabhayi kukiera. Tubhoki kwa muene.”
I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let us go to him."
16 Basi Tomaso, jhaakutibhu Pacha, abhajobhili bhanafunzi bhajhinu, “Natu tubhoki pia tukafuayi pamonga ni Yesu.”
Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us go also, that we may die with him."
17 Wakati Yesu bho ahidili, akolili kujha Lazaro tayari amalikujha mu likaburi magono mancheche.
So when Jesus came, he found that he had been in the tomb four days already.
18 Ni Bethania jhajhele karibu ni Yerusalemu kama kilomita arobaini na tano naha.
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.
19 Bhingi kati jha Bhayahudi bhakahida kwa Martha ni Mariamu kubhafariji kwa ndabha jha ndongo bhabhi.
Many of the Jewish people had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.
20 Ndipo Martha bho ap'eliki kujha Yesu ihida, akalota kubhonana naku, lakini Mariamu ajhendelili kutama kunyumba.
Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.
21 Ndipo Martha akan'jobhela Yesu, “Bwana, kama ngaujhi apa, kaka jhangu ngafuili lepi.
Therefore Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother would not have died.
22 Hata henu, nimanyili jha kujha lyolyoha lya wibetakus'oka kuh'oma kwa K'yara, ibetakupela.”
Even now I know that whatever you ask of God, God will give you."
23 Yesu akan'jobhela, kaka jhakhu ibetakufufuka kabhele.”
Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."
24 Martha akan'jobhela, nimanyili kujha ibetakufufuka ligono lya mwishu.”
Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."
25 Yesu akan'jobhela, “Nene na ufufuo ni bhusima; muene jha akanikiera, ingabhwa ibetakufwa hata efyo ibetakujha itama;
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.
And whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" (aiōn g165)
27 Akajobhela, “Ena, Bwana nikiera kujha bhebhe ndo Kristu, Mwana ghwa K'yara, muene jha ihida mu ulimwengu.”
She said to him, "Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who comes into the world."
28 Bho amalikujobha e'le, akabhoka ni kun'kuta dada jhake Mariamu pa lubhafu. Akajobha, “Mwalimu ajhele apa na ikukuta.”
And when she had said this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying, "The Teacher is here, and is calling you."
29 Mariamu bho ap'eliki agha ajhimuiki kwa haraka ni kulota kwa haraka ni kulota kwa Yesu.
When she heard this, she arose quickly, and went to him.
30 Ni muene Yesu ajhele bado ahidi lepi mu kijiji, bali ajhe akona mahali pa abhonene ni Martha.
Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met him.
31 Ndipo Bhayahudi bhabhajhele Mariamu mu nyumba ni bhala bhabhajhele bhikmfariji, bho bhambwene ijhinuka haraka ni kuhoma kwibhala, bhan'kesisi; bhafikirileghe ilota kulikaburi ili akalelayi okhu.
Then the Judeans 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, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.
32 Ndipo Mariamu, bho afikiri pala Yesu pa ajhele ambwene na, aguili pasi pa magolo gha muene ni kun'jobhela, “Bwana, kama ngaujhele apa, ndongobhangu ngaafuili lepi.”
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 would not have died."
33 Yesu bho ambwene ilela, ni Bhayahudi bhabhahidili pamonga ni muene bhajhele bhilela pia, aombolisi kwa roho ni kufadhaika;
When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Judeans weeping who came with her, he was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,
34 akajobha, “Mun'gonisi ndaku? bhakan'jobhela, Bwana, hidayi langayi.”
and said, "Where have you put him?" They told him, "Lord, come and see."
35 Yesu akalela.
Jesus wept.
36 Ndipo Bhayahudi bhakajobha, “Langayi kyaan'ganili Lazaro!”
The Judeans therefore said, "See how he loved him."
37 Lakini bhangi kati jha bhene bhakajobha, “Ojholepi, jhaaghafumbuili mihu gha jhola kipofu, abhwesi lepi kubhomba munu ojho asifwi?”
But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have also kept this man from dying?"
38 Ndipo Yesu, hali iomboleza mu nafsi mwa muene kabhele, akalota ku likaburi. Henu lyajhele pango, ni liganda lya bhekibhu panani.
So Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
39 Yesu akajobha, “Mulibhosiajhi liganga.” Martha, dada jhake ni Lazaro, jhaafuili akan'jobhela Yesu, “Bwana, kwa muda obho, mb'ele ghwibeta kujha ubholili, kwa ndabha amalikujha maiti kwa magono mancheche.”
Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
40 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Nene nakujobhilepi jhakujha, kama ukakierayi, wibetakubhubhona utukufu ghwa K'yara?”
Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see God's glory?"
41 Henu bhakalibhosya liganga. Yesu akajhinula mihu gha muene kunani ni kujobha, “Dadi, nikushukuru kwa ndabha ukanip'elek'esya.
So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, "Father, I thank you that you listened to me.
42 Nimanyili kujha ukanip'elekesya mara siyoha, lakini kwandabha jha likusanyiku ambalyo lijhemili kunisyong'oka kujha ni jobhili agha ili kwamba bhabhwesiajhi kuamini kujha bhebhe unilaghisi.”
I know that you always listen to me, but because of the crowd that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."
43 Baada jha kujobha agha, alelili kwa sauti mbaha, “Lazaro, pitayi kwibhala!”
When he had said this, he shouted with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out."
44 Mfu apitili kwibhala akongibhu mabhoko ni magolo kwa sanda sya kusyelela, ni pamihu pa muene ni kitambala.” Yesu akabhajobhela, “Mumbopolayi mkandekayi alotayi.”
The man who had died 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 Ndipo Bhayahudi bhingi bhabhahidili kwa Mariamu ni kutola Yesu kyaabhombili, bhakankiera;
Therefore many of the Judeans, who came to Mary and had seen the things which he did, believed in him.
46 lakini baadhi jha bhene bhakalota kwa Mafarisayo ni kubhajobhela mambo gha abhombili Yesu.
But some of them went away to the Pharisees, and told them the things which Jesus had done.
47 Ndipo bhabhaha bha Makuhani ni Mafarisayo bhakabhonganika pamonga mu libaraza ni kujobha, “Tubeta khetabhuli? Munu ojho ibhomba ishara simehele.
The chief priests therefore and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, "What are we doing? For this man does many signs.
48 Ikajhelayi tubetakun'kiera naha muene, bhoha bhibetakun'kiera; Bharumi bhibetakuhida ni kutola fyoha mahali pa tete ni litaifa lya jhotu.”
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 Hata naha, munu mmonga kati jha bhene, Kayafa, jhaajhele kuhani mbaha mwaka obhu, akabhajobhela, “Mmanyilepi kyokyoha kabisa.
But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all,
50 Mwifikirira kujha jhilondeka kwa ndabha jha muenga kujha kati jha muenga jhilondeka munu mmonga kufwa kwa ndabha jha bhanu kuliko litaifa lyoha kujhangamila.”
nor do you consider that it is advantageous for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation not perish."
51 Agha aghajobhilepi kwa ndabha jha muene, badala jhiake, kwa kujha ajhele, kuhani mkuu mwaka ghola, atabiri kujha Yesu ibetakufwa kwa ndabha jha litaifa;
Now he did not say this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
52 na sio kwa litaifa liene, bali Yesu akabhayi vilevile kubhabhonganiya bhana bha K'yara ambabho bhatabhwanyiki sehemu mbalimbali.
and not for the nation only, but that he might also gather together into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.
53 Henu kujhandila e'lu ni kujhendelela bhakapanga namna jha kunkoma Yesu.
So from that day on they plotted to kill him.
54 Yesu agendilepi kabhele wazi wazi pa Bhayahudi, bali akabhoka apu akalota nchi jha ijhele karibu ni jangwa pa mji ghwa Efraimu. Apu atamili ni bhanafunzi.
Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Judeans, but departed from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim; and stayed there with his disciples.
55 Basi Pasaka jha Bhayahudi jhajhele karibu, ni bhingi bhalondeghe kulota Yerusalemu kwibhala pa mji kabla jha Pasaka ili bhabhwesiayi kwitakasya bhene.
Now the Jewish Passover was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
56 Bhakajha bhakan'donda Yesu, ni kulongela khila mmonga pabhajhele bhajhemili mu lihekalu, “Mwifikirira kiki? Kujha ibetalepi kuhida ku sikukuu?”
Then they sought for Jesus and spoke one with another, as they stood in the temple, "What do you think—that he is not coming to the feast at all?"
57 Wakati obhu bhabhaha bha makuhani ni Mafarisayo bhajhele bhahomisi amri kujha ikajhiayi mmonga amanyili Yesu pa ajhele, ilondeka kupisya taarifa ili kwamba bhabhwesiayi kun'kamula.
Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should report it, that they might arrest him.
