Yohana 12
1 Magono sita kabla jha Pasaka, Yesu alotili Bethania, paajhele Lazaro, muene jha amfufuili kuh'omela kwa bhafu.
Then, six days before the Passover, Yeshua came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Basi bhakanjandalila kyakulya kya kimihi oku, ni Martha akanitumikila, wakati obhu Lazaro ajhele mmonga wipoghwa bhala bhabhatamili pa kyakulya pamonga ni Yesu.
So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
3 Kisha Mariamu atolili ratli jha manukato ghaghatengenesibhu kwa nardo jhinofu, jhajhijhe ni thamani mbaha, akambakasya Yesu mu magolo, ni kumpolosya magolo kwa njuili sya muene; nyumba jhioha jha memili harufu jha manukato.
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 Yuda Iskariote, mmonga ghwa bhala bhanafunzi bha muene, ambajhe ndo an'saliti Yesu, akajobha,
Then Judah Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 “Kwa ndabha jha kiki manukato agha ghabeleghe kugolesibhwa kwa dinari mia tatu ni kupelibhwa maskini?”
“Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
6 Ni muene akajobha aghu, si kwa kubhafuhurumila maskini, bali kwa ndabha ajhele mmeji: muene ndo jhaakamuili mfuku ghwa hela na atoleghe baadhi jha fibhekibhu omu kwa ndabha jha muene.
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 Yesu akajobha, “Ndekayi abhekayi kya ajhenaku kwa ndabha jha maziku ghangu.
But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8 Maskini mwibetakujha nabhu magono ghoha; lakini mwibetalepi kujha nani magono ghoha.”
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9 Basi bhumati mbaha ghwa Bhayahudi bhakabhwesya kumanya kujha Yesu ajhele okhu, na bhene bhakahida, sio kwandabha jha Yesu tu bali bhambonayi Lazaro ambaye Yesu amfufuili kuhomela kwa bhafu.
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 bhabhaha bha makuhani bhakabhomba shauri ili bhan'komayi Lazaro;
But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11 maana kwa ndabha jha muene bhingi Bhayahudi bhakilotili ni kun'kiera Yesu.
because on account of him many of the Judeans went away and believed in Yeshua.
12 Ni ligono lya pili lyake umati mbaha bhahidili ku sikukuu. Bho bhap'eliki Yesu ihida Yerusalemu,
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Yeshua was coming to Jerusalem,
13 bhakalota matawi gha mabhehe gha mitende ni kuhoma kwibhala kulota kumlaki ni kujhuegha, “Hosana! Abarikibhu muene jha ihida kwa lihina lya Bwana, Mfalme ghwa 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 Yesu an'kabhili mwana-punda akakuela; kama vile kyajhalembibhu,
Yeshua, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 “Usitili, binti Sayuni; langayi, Mfalme ghwa jhobhi ihida, akwelili mwana-punda.”
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
16 Bhanafunzi bha muene bhaghajhelibhu lepi mambo agha hapo hoti; lakini Yesu bho atukusibhu, ndipo bhakhombuiki jha kujha mambo agha alembibhu muene ni kwamba bhabhombili mambo agha kwa muene.
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 Basi likundi lele lya bhanu bhabhajhele pamonga ni Yesu wakati an'kutili Lazaro kuhomela mu likaburi, bhakashuhudila kwa bhangi.
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 Na jhajhele kwa ndabha ejhe kwamba likundi lya bhanu bhalotili kumlaki kwa ndabha bhap'eliki jha kujha ajhibhombili ishara ejhu.
For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Mafarisayo bhakajobhesana bhene kwa bhene, “Langayi, henu mwibhwesya lepi kubhomba kyokyoha; langayi, ulimwengu ulolili kwa muene.”
The Pharisees therefore said amongst themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
20 Henu baadhi jha Bhayunani bhajhele miongoni mwa bhala bhabhajhele bhilota kuabudu ku sikukuu.
Now there were certain Greeks amongst those who went up to worship at the feast.
21 Abha bhandotili Filipo, ambajhe ahomili Bethsaida jha Galilaya, bhakans'oka bhakajobha, “Bwana, tete twilonda kumbona Yesu.”
Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Yeshua.”
22 Filipo akalota akan'jobhela Andrea; Andrea ni Filipo bhakalota ni kun'jobhela Yesu.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Yeshua.
23 Yesu akabhajibu akajobha, “Saa jhifikiri kwa ndabha jha Muana ghwa Adamu kutukusibhwa.
Yeshua answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 Aminiayi, aminiayi, nikabhajobhela chembe jha ngano jhikabelayi kubina palifu jhikafwa, jhitama mebhwa jhiene; bali jhikafuayi jhihogola matunda mingi.
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 Jhaabhuganili uhai bhwa muene ibetakubhujhasya; bali jhaabhudadili uhai bhwa muene pa uloimwengu obho ibetakubhusalimisya hata uzima bhwa milele. (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 Munu jhejhioha jhaibetakunitumikila nene, na anikesiajhi; nani pa nijhele ndipo ni n'tumishi ghwangu paibetakujha. Munu jhejhioha jhaibetakunitumikila, Dadi ibetakun'heshi.
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 Henu roho jha nene ifadhaiki: nani nijobhabhuli? Dadi, uniokolayi katika lisaa e'le? Lakini kwa kusudi e'le nijhifikili lisaa e'le.
“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 Dadi, ulitukusiajhi lihina lya jhobhi.” Kisha sauti ikahida kuh'omela kumbinguni ni kujobha, “Nilitukuisi nani nibetakulitukusya kabhele.”
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
29 Basi n'kutano ghwajhemili palubhafu pa muene bhap'eliki, bhakajobha kujha kujhe ni ngurumo. Bhangi bhakajobha, “Malaika ajobhi naku.”
Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
30 Yesu akajibu ni kujobha, “Sauti ejhe jhikahidi lepi kwa ndabha jha nene, bali kwandabha jha muenga.
Yeshua answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Henu hukumu jha ulimwengu obhu jhijhele: Henu mbaha ghwa ulimwengu obhu isopibhwa kwibhala.
Now is the judgement of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 Ni nene panibetakujhinulibhwa panani pa nchi, nibetakubhatafuta bhoha kwa nene.”
And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 Aghajobhili aghu kulasya kujha mauti gani gha ibetakufwa.
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Mkutano bhukan'jibu, “Tete tup'eliki ku sheria kujha Kristu ibetakutamisya hata milele. Ni bhe ghwijobhuli, 'Mwana ghwa Adamu lazima ajhinulibhwayi kunani'? Ojho Muana ghwa Munu niani?” (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 Basi Yesu akabhajobhela, “Nuru jhijhepamonga namu muda kidogo. Mulotayi kwa kujha mujhe ni nuru, ili kwamba ngisi jhisibhabhwesi. Jhailota ku ngisi amanyilepi kwa ilota.
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 Mujhe ni nuru mujhiaminiajhi nuru ejhu ili mukabhayi kujha bhana bha nuru.” Yesu ajobhili aghu ni kisha akabhoka akakifigha bhasimboni.
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 Ingabhwa Yesu abhombili ishara simehele namna ejhu mbele jha bhene, bado bhabelikumwamini
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
38 ili litimilayi lilobhi lya nabii Isaya, lyaalijobhili: “Bwana, niani jhaasisadiki habari sya tete? Ni kibhoko kya Bwana afunulibhu niani?”
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 Ndio sababu bhene bhabeli kun'kiera, ndabha Isaya ajobhi kabhele,
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “Abhapofuisi mihu, ni kujhibhomba minonono mioyo jha bhene; bhasihidi bhakalota kwa mihu gha bhene ni kumanya kwa mioyo ghya bhene, ni kuongoka nani kubhaponyesya.”
“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 Isaya ajobhili malobhi agha kwa kujha aubhwene utukufu bhwa Yesu ni kujobha habari sya muene.
Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Bhalakini, hata bhabhaha bhingi bhan'kyeriri Yesu; lakini kwa ndabha jha Mafarisayo, bhakiririlepi ili bhasihidi kutengibhwa ni sinagogi.
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 Bhaganili sifa sya bhanadamu kuliko sifa syasihomela kwa K'yara.
for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
44 Yesu akakuesya sauti ni kujobha, “Jhaibetakuniamini, akaniamini nene tu bali ni muene jhaanitumili nene,
Yeshua cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 ni jhaibetakunibhona nene ibetakumbona muene jha anilaghisi.
He who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Nene nihidili kama nuru pa ulimwengu ili khila munu aniaminiayi nene asitami mu ngisi.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 Ikajhelayi munu jhejhioha ibetakughap'eleka malobhi ghangu lakini akaghakamula lepi, nene nikan'hukumu lepi; ndabha nahidilepi ili kuhukumu ulimwengu bali nibhuokolayi ulimwengu.
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 Jhaibetakunibela nene ni kughabela malobhi ghangu ajhele jhaibetakun'hukumu: lilobhi e'lu lyanilijobhili ndo lyalibetakun'hukumu ligono lya mwishu.
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 Ndabha nene najobhilepi kwa nafsi jha nene tu. Bali Dadi jha anipeliki, muene angaghisi ghaibetakujobha ni kughapanga.
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 Nani nimanyili kujha lilaghisu lya muene ni bhusima bhwa milele; basi aghu ndo ghanijobha nene - kama Dadi kyaanijobhili, ndo kyanibeta kujobha kwa bhene.” (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)
