Yoane 12
1 Wana etikalaki mikolo motoba mpo ete Pasika ebanda, Yesu akendeki na Betani epai wapi Lazare, oyo asekwisaki kati na bakufi, azalaki kovanda.
Jesus, therefore, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had died, whom He raised out of the dead;
2 Kuna, balambaki bilei mpo na Yesu; mpe wana Marte azalaki kobongisa mesa, Lazare azalaki moko kati na bato oyo bavandaki na mesa elongo na Yesu.
they made, therefore, a dinner to Him there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together with Him;
3 Mari akamataki ndambo ya litele ya malasi ya nar, oyo basangisa na eloko mosusu te mpe ya motuya makasi, asopaki yango na makolo ya Yesu mpe asalelaki suki na ye mpo na kopangusa makolo yango. Ndako mobimba etondaki na solo ya malasi yango.
Mary, therefore, having taken a pound of ointment of spikenard, of great price, anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped His feet with her hair, and the house was filled from the fragrance of the ointment.
4 Bongo moko kati na bayekoli ya Yesu, Yuda Isikarioti, ye oyo akoteka Ye, alobaki:
Therefore one of His disciples—Judas Iscariot, of Simon, who is about to deliver Him up—says,
5 — Mpo na nini bateki te malasi oyo na motuya ya mbongo ya bibende nkama misato mpo na kopesa yango epai ya babola?
“Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?”
6 Yuda Isikarioti alobaki bongo mpo ete azalaki moyibi; ezalaki te mpo ete azalaki na makanisi ya kosunga babola. Bongo lokola azalaki mpe kobatela libenga ya mbongo ya lisanga, azalaki tango nyonso koyiba mbongo.
And he said this, not because he was caring for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and what things were put in he was carrying.
7 Kasi Yesu alobaki: — Tika ye kimia! Abombi malasi yango mpo na mokolo oyo bakokunda Ngai.
Jesus, therefore, said, “Permit her; she has kept it for the day of My embalming,
8 Bokozalaka na babola tango nyonso; kasi Ngai, bokozalaka na Ngai tango nyonso te.
for you always have the poor with yourselves, and you do not always have Me.”
9 Lokola Bayuda mingi bayokaki ete Yesu azali na Betani, bakendeki kuna; bakendeki kaka te mpo na Yesu, kasi mpe mpo na kotala Lazare oyo Yesu asekwisaki kati na bakufi.
Therefore, a great multitude of the Jews knew that He is there, and they came, not only because of Jesus, but that they may also see Lazarus, whom He raised out of the dead;
10 Bongo bakonzi ya Banganga-Nzambe basalaki mabongisi mpo na koboma mpe Lazare;
and the chief priests took counsel, that they may also kill Lazarus,
11 pamba te likolo na ye, Bayuda ebele bazalaki kokabwana na Banganga-Nzambe mpo na kondima Yesu.
because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.
12 Mokolo oyo elandaki, ebele ya bato oyo bayaki na Yelusalemi mpo na feti ya Pasika bayokaki sango ete Yesu mpe azali kokende kuna na Yelusalemi.
On the next day, a great multitude that came to the celebration, having heard that Jesus comes to Jerusalem,
13 Bakataki mandalala mpe babimaki mpo na kokende koyamba Yesu; bazalaki koganga: « Ozana! Tika ete apambolama, Ye oyo ayei na Kombo ya Nkolo, Mokonzi ya Isalaele! »
took the branches of the palms, and went forth to meet Him, and were crying, “Hosanna! Blessed [is] He who is coming in the Name of the LORD—the King of Israel”;
14 Yesu amonaki mwana moko ya ane mpe avandaki na likolo na yango kolanda ndenge ekomama:
and Jesus having found a young donkey sat on it, according as it is written,
15 « Siona, engumba kitoko, kobanga te! Tala, mokonzi na yo azali koya, avandi na likolo ya mwana ya ane! »
“Do not fear, daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes, sitting on a colt of a donkey.”
16 Bayekoli ya Yesu bayebaki nanu te tina ya makambo oyo ezalaki kosalema. Kaka tango Yesu akotaki kati na nkembo nde basosolaki ete makambo yango ekomamaki na tina na Ye, mpe ete bakokisaki kaka makambo oyo Makomi eloba.
And His disciples did not know these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were having been written about Him, and these things they did to Him.
17 Bato nyonso oyo bazalaki elongo na Yesu tango abengaki Lazare ete abima na kunda mpe asekwisaki ye kati na bakufi, bazalaki kotatola makambo oyo bamonaki.
The multitude, therefore, who are with Him, were testifying that He called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him out of the dead;
18 Yango wana ebele ya bato bakendeki koyamba Yesu mpo ete bayokaki ete Ye nde asalaki likamwisi yango.
because of this the multitude also met Him, because they heard of His having done this sign,
19 Bongo Bafarizeo balobanaki bango na bango: — Bomoni, bokokoka lisusu eloko moko te; bato nyonso bakomi na bango kolanda ye!
therefore the Pharisees said among themselves, “You see that you do not gain anything, behold, the world went after Him.”
20 Kati na bato oyo bayaki na feti, na Yelusalemi, mpo na kogumbamela Nzambe, ezalaki na ndambo ya Bagreki.
And there were certain Greeks out of those coming up that they may worship in the celebration,
21 Bakendeki epai ya Filipo, moto ya mboka Betisaida ya Galile, mpe batalisaki ye bosenga oyo: — Tata, tolingi komona Yesu.
these then came near to Philip, who [is] from Bethsaida of Galilee, and were asking him, saying, “Lord, we wish to see Jesus”;
22 Filipo akendeki koyebisa Andre; bongo bango mibale, Andre mpe Filipo, bakendeki koyebisa Yesu.
Philip comes and tells Andrew, and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
23 Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Sik’oyo, ngonga ekoki, ngonga oyo Mwana na Moto asengeli kokota kati na nkembo na Ye.
And Jesus responded to them, saying, “The hour has come that the Son of Man may be glorified;
24 Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: soki mbuma ya ble oyo ekweyi na mabele ekufi te, mbuma yango ekotikala kaka yango moko. Kasi soki ekufi, ekobota solo bambuma ebele.
truly, truly, I say to you, if the grain of the wheat, having fallen to the earth, may not die, itself remains alone; and if it may die, it bears much fruit;
25 Moto nyonso oyo akangami na bomoi na ye akobungisa yango; kasi moto oyo aboyi kokangama na bomoi na ye, kati na mokili oyo, akobatela yango mpo na bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
he who is cherishing his life will lose it, and he who is hating his life in this world will keep it to continuous life; (aiōnios g166)
26 Tika ete moto oyo alingi kosalela Ngai alanda Ngai! Epai Ngai nakozala, mosali na Ngai mpe akozala wana. Tata na Ngai akokumisa moto oyo asalelaka Ngai.
if anyone may minister to Me, let him follow Me, and where I am, there My servant will be also; and if anyone may minister to Me—the Father will honor him.
27 Sik’oyo, molimo na Ngai etungisami! Naloba nini? Tata, kangola Ngai na tango oyo ya pasi? Nzokande, ezali penza mpo na tango yango ya pasi nde nakomi kino na ngonga oyo!
Now My soul has been troubled; and what will I say—Father, save Me from this hour? But because of this I came to this hour;
28 Tata, pesa Kombo na Yo nkembo! Bongo mongongo moko eyokanaki wuta na Likolo: — Nasili kopesa yango nkembo mpe nakopesa yango lisusu nkembo!
Father, glorify Your Name.” Therefore there came a voice out of Heaven, “I both glorified, and again I will glorify [it]”;
29 Bato oyo bazalaki wana mpe bayokaki mongongo yango balobaki: — Ezali kake! Bato mosusu balobaki: — Anjelu moko asololi na ye!
the multitude, therefore, having stood and heard, were saying that there has been thunder; others said, “A messenger has spoken to Him.”
30 Kasi Yesu alobaki na bango: — Mongongo wana eyokani te mpo na Ngai, kasi mpo na bino.
Jesus answered and said, “This voice has not come because of Me, but because of you;
31 Kosambisama ya mokili elingi kosalema nde sik’oyo; mokonzi ya mokili oyo akobwakama sik’oyo na libanda.
now is a judgment of this world, now will the ruler of this world be cast forth;
32 Mpe tango bakotombola Ngai longwa na mabele, nakobenda bato nyonso epai na Ngai.
and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself.”
33 Yesu alobaki bongo mpo na kolakisa lolenge ya kufa oyo asengeli kokufa.
And this He said signifying by what death He was about to die;
34 Bato bazongiselaki Ye: — Mibeko ezali kolakisa biso ete Klisto asengeli kozala na bomoi seko na seko. Bongo ndenge nini yo olobi na biso: « Mwana na Moto asengeli kotombolama? » Nani nde Mwana na Moto? (aiōn g165)
the multitude answered Him, “We heard that the Christ remains out of the Law—throughout the age; and how do You say that it is required that the Son of Man be lifted up? Who is this—the Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
35 Yesu alobaki na bango: — Pole ezali nanu kati na bino mpo na mwa tango moke. Botambola, wana bozali na pole, mpo ete molili ekanga bino te na mbalakata; pamba te moto oyo atambolaka kati na molili ayebaka te esika nini azali kotia lokolo.
Therefore Jesus said to them, “Yet a short time is the light with you; walk while you have the light, that darkness may not overtake you; and he who is walking in the darkness has not known where he goes;
36 Boye wana bozali nanu na pole, bondima pole mpo ete bokoma bana ya pole. Tango Yesu asilisaki koloba bongo, akendeki mpe amibombaki mosika na bango.
while you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.” Jesus spoke these things, and having gone away, He was hid from them,
37 Atako Yesu asalaki bikamwa ebele na miso na bango, kasi bandimaki Ye kaka te
yet He, having done so many signs before them, they were not believing in Him,
38 mpo ete maloba ya mosakoli Ezayi ekokisama: « Nkolo, nani andimaki mateya na biso? Mpe nguya na Yo emonisamaki epai ya nani? »
that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said, “LORD, who gave credence to our report? And the arm of the LORD—to whom was it revealed?”
39 Ezali lisusu Ezayi nde alobaki tina oyo bakokaki kondima te:
Because of this they were not able to believe, that again Isaiah said,
40 « Azipaki miso na bango mpe akomisaki bango mitema makasi, mpo ete bamona te na miso na bango, basosola te na mitema na bango, babongola mitema te, mpe ngai nabikisa bango te. »
“He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and turn, and I might heal them”;
41 Ezayi alobaki bongo mpo ete amonaki Nkembo ya Yesu mpe azalaki koloba na tina na Ye.
Isaiah said these things when he saw His glory, and spoke of Him.
42 Nzokande, kati na bakonzi ya Bayuda, mingi bandimaki Ye; kasi balakisaki te kondima na bango na polele, pamba te bazalaki kobanga ete Bafarizeo babengana bango na ndako ya mayangani,
Still, however, out of the rulers many also believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they were not confessing, that they might not be put out of the synagogue,
43 pamba te bazalaki kolinga mingi kozwa lokumu kowuta na bato, kasi lokumu kowuta na Nzambe te.
for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.
44 Bongo Yesu alobaki na mongongo ya makasi: — Moto oyo andimi Ngai, andimi kaka Ngai te, kasi andimi mpe Ye oyo atindaki Ngai;
And Jesus cried and said, “He who is believing in Me, does not believe in Me, but in Him who sent Me;
45 mpe moto oyo amoni Ngai, amoni mpe Ye oyo atindaki Ngai.
and He who is beholding Me, beholds Him who sent Me;
46 Ngai, pole, nayaki kati na mokili mpo ete moto nyonso oyo akondima Ngai azala lisusu te kati na molili.
I—light to the world—have come, that everyone who is believing in Me may not remain in the darkness;
47 Soki moto ayoki maloba na Ngai, kasi aboyi kotia yango na misala, Ngai, nakosambisa ye te; pamba te nayaki te mpo na kosambisa mokili, kasi mpo na kobikisa yango.
and if anyone may hear My sayings, and not believe, I do not judge him, for I did not come that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.
48 Moto oyo aboyi Ngai mpe ayambi te maloba na Ngai azali na mosambisi na ye: ezali liloba oyo nateyi nde ekosambisa ye, na mokolo ya suka.
He who is rejecting Me, and not receiving My sayings, has one who is judging him, the word that I spoke, that will judge him in the last day,
49 Pamba te nalobaki na Kombo na Ngai moko te; kasi Ye moko Tata oyo atindaki Ngai apesaki Ngai, lokola mitindo, makambo oyo nasengeli koloba mpe koteya.
because I did not speak from Myself, but the Father who sent Me, He gave Me a command, what I may say, and what I may speak,
50 Nzokande, nayebi malamu ete mitindo na Ye epesaka bomoi ya seko; yango wana nazali koloba makambo oyo, ndenge kaka Tata ayebisaki Ngai yango. (aiōnios g166)
and I have known that His command is continuous life; what, therefore, I speak, according as the Father has said to Me, so I speak.” (aiōnios g166)
