Yohana 11
1 Basi munu mmonga lihina lya muene ajhele Lazaro alwaleghe. Ahomili Bethania, kijiji kya Mariamu ni dada jhake Martha.
But there was a certain man sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town 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 the Mary who 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, behold, he whom thou lovest 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.”
And Jesus hearing this said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through 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 remained in the place where he was two days.
7 Ndipo baada jha ele akabhajobhela bhanafunzi bha muene, “Tulotayi Uyahudi kabhele.”
Then after this he saith to the disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8 Bhanafunzi bhakan'jobhela, “Rabi, Bhayahudi bhajhele bhijaribu kukuponda maganga, ni bhebhe ghwilonda kukerebhuka kabhele?”
The disciples say to him, Rabbi, the Jews but just now were seeking to stone thee, and goest thou thither 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 in the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world;
10 Hata efyo, ikajhiajhi ibetakugenda pakilu, ibetakwikungufula kwa ndabha nuru ijhelepi mugati mwa muene.”
but if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth; 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.”
This he spoke, and afterwards said to them, Our friend Lazarus hath fallen asleep; but I go that I may awake him out of sleep.
12 Ndipo bhanafunzi bhakan'jobhela, “Bwana, kama agonili, ibetakujhumuka.
The disciples therefore said to him, Lord, if he hath fallen asleep, he will recover.
13 Wakati obho Yesu ajhele ilongela habari sya kifo kya Lazaro, lakini bhene bhafikilaghe ilongela juu jha kugona lugono.
But Jesus had spoken of his death; but they thought that he spoke of the taking of rest in sleep.
14 Ndipo Yesu akalongela nabhu wazi wazi, “Lazaro afuili.
Then therefore Jesus said to them plainly: Lazarus is dead.
15 Nihobhwiki kwandabha jhinu, kujha najhelepi khola ili kwamba mkabhayi kukiera. Tubhoki kwa muene.”
And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there; that ye may believe; but let us go to him.
16 Basi Tomaso, jhaakutibhu Pacha, abhajobhili bhanafunzi bhajhinu, “Natu tubhoki pia tukafuayi pamonga ni Yesu.”
Then said Thomas, who was called Didymus, to his fellow-disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17 Wakati Yesu bho ahidili, akolili kujha Lazaro tayari amalikujha mu likaburi magono mancheche.
Having come, therefore, Jesus found that he had been four days in the tomb.
18 Ni Bethania jhajhele karibu ni Yerusalemu kama kilomita arobaini na tano naha.
Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off;
19 Bhingi kati jha Bhayahudi bhakahida kwa Martha ni Mariamu kubhafariji kwa ndabha jha ndongo bhabhi.
and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Ndipo Martha bho ap'eliki kujha Yesu ihida, akalota kubhonana naku, lakini Mariamu ajhendelili kutama kunyumba.
Martha therefore, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet him; but Mary continued sitting in the house.
21 Ndipo Martha akan'jobhela Yesu, “Bwana, kama ngaujhi apa, kaka jhangu ngafuili lepi.
Then said Martha to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died;
22 Hata henu, nimanyili jha kujha lyolyoha lya wibetakus'oka kuh'oma kwa K'yara, ibetakupela.”
and even now I know that whatever thou shalt ask of God, God will give it thee.
23 Yesu akan'jobhela, kaka jhakhu ibetakufufuka kabhele.”
Jesus saith to her, Thy brother will rise again.
24 Martha akan'jobhela, nimanyili kujha ibetakufufuka ligono lya mwishu.”
Martha saith 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 that believeth in me, though he have died, will live;
and whoever liveth and believeth in me will never die. Believest thou this? (aiōn g165)
27 Akajobhela, “Ena, Bwana nikiera kujha bhebhe ndo Kristu, Mwana ghwa K'yara, muene jha ihida mu ulimwengu.”
She saith to him, Yea, Lord; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, he who was to come into the world.
28 Bho amalikujobha e'le, akabhoka ni kun'kuta dada jhake Mariamu pa lubhafu. Akajobha, “Mwalimu ajhele apa na ikukuta.”
And having said this, she went away, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Teacher is here and calleth for thee.
29 Mariamu bho ap'eliki agha ajhimuiki kwa haraka ni kulota kwa haraka ni kulota kwa Yesu.
She, when she heard this, riseth quickly and cometh 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 town, 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.
The Jews then who were with her in the house and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up hastily and went out, followed her, thinking 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.”
Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was, as soon as she saw him fell down at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 Yesu bho ambwene ilela, ni Bhayahudi bhabhahidili pamonga ni muene bhajhele bhilela pia, aombolisi kwa roho ni kufadhaika;
Jesus therefore when he saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping who came with her, was greatly moved in his spirit, and much troubled,
34 akajobha, “Mun'gonisi ndaku? bhakan'jobhela, Bwana, hidayi langayi.”
and said, Where have ye laid him? They say to him, Lord, come and see.
35 Yesu akalela.
Jesus wept.
36 Ndipo Bhayahudi bhakajobha, “Langayi kyaan'ganili Lazaro!”
The Jews 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 he, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have also caused that this man should not have died?
38 Ndipo Yesu, hali iomboleza mu nafsi mwa muene kabhele, akalota ku likaburi. Henu lyajhele pango, ni liganda lya bhekibhu panani.
Jesus therefore, again greatly moved within himself, cometh to the tomb. 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 saith, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him, Lord, by this time the body is offensive; for he hath been dead four days.
40 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Nene nakujobhilepi jhakujha, kama ukakierayi, wibetakubhubhona utukufu ghwa K'yara?”
Jesus saith to her, Did I not tell thee, that if thou wouldst believe, thou shouldst see the glory of God?
41 Henu bhakalibhosya liganga. Yesu akajhinula mihu gha muene kunani ni kujobha, “Dadi, nikushukuru kwa ndabha ukanip'elek'esya.
They therefore took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father! I thank thee that thou hast heard 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.”
Yet I knew that thou hearest me always; but for the sake of the multitude standing around I said it, that they might believe that thou didst send me.
43 Baada jha kujobha agha, alelili kwa sauti mbaha, “Lazaro, pitayi kwibhala!”
And having thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth!
44 Mfu apitili kwibhala akongibhu mabhoko ni magolo kwa sanda sya kusyelela, ni pamihu pa muene ni kitambala.” Yesu akabhajobhela, “Mumbopolayi mkandekayi alotayi.”
He that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave-clothes; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith to them, Loose him, and let him go.
45 Ndipo Bhayahudi bhingi bhabhahidili kwa Mariamu ni kutola Yesu kyaabhombili, bhakankiera;
Many of the Jews therefore who had come to Mary, and had seen what 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 what Jesus had done.
47 Ndipo bhabhaha bha Makuhani ni Mafarisayo bhakabhonganika pamonga mu libaraza ni kujobha, “Tubeta khetabhuli? Munu ojho ibhomba ishara simehele.
Therefore the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council, and said, What are we to do, seeing that this man worketh 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 thus let him alone, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away both our place and nation.
49 Hata naha, munu mmonga kati jha bhene, Kayafa, jhaajhele kuhani mbaha mwaka obhu, akabhajobhela, “Mmanyilepi kyokyoha kabisa.
And a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high-priest that year, said to them, Ye 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 ye consider that it is expedient for us that one man die for the people, and not the whole nation 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;
And this he spoke not from himself; but being high-priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was about to 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 in one body the children of God that are scattered abroad.
53 Henu kujhandila e'lu ni kujhendelela bhakapanga namna jha kunkoma Yesu.
Therefore from that day forth they consulted together to put him to death.
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 no longer walked openly among the Jews, but departed thence to the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there abode with the disciples.
55 Basi Pasaka jha Bhayahudi jhajhele karibu, ni bhingi bhalondeghe kulota Yerusalemu kwibhala pa mji kabla jha Pasaka ili bhabhwesiayi kwitakasya bhene.
And the passover of the Jews was at hand; and many went out of the country up 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?”
They sought therefore for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye? that he will not come to the feast?
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 any one knew where he was, he should give information, that they might seize him.
