< Jaona 12 >

1 Ary rehefa henemana no sisa tsy tonga ny Paska, Jesosy dia tonga tao Betania, izay nitoeran’ i Lazarosy, ilay natsangany tamin’ ny maty.
Jesus however, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, and whom He raised from the dead.
2 Dia nanao fanasana ho an’ i Jesosy tao izy; ary Marta no nanompo; fa Lazarosy no anankiray tamin’ izay niara-nipetraka nihinana taminy.
Therefore they made Him a supper there, and Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of them that sat down with Him.
3 Ary Maria, rehefa naka menaka manitra nisy narda sady tsara no saro-bidy, lanjan’ iray livatra, dia nanosotra ny tongotr’ i Jesosy sy namaoka ny tongony tamin’ ny volondohany; ary feno ny hanitry ny menaka ny trano.
And Mary taking a pound of ointment of spikenard of great value, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped them with her hair; and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
4 Ary hoy Jodasy Iskariota, anankiray tamin’ ny mpianany, ilay efa hamadika Azy:
Therefore said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, who was about to betray Him,
5 Nahoana io menaka io no tsy namidy denaria telon-jato ka nomena ny malahelo?
Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence and given to the poor?
6 Ary izy no nilaza izany, tsy noho ny fiahiany ny malahelo, fa satria mpangalatra izy sady nitondra ny kitapo ka naka izay tao anatiny.
He said this, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the common purse he carried what was put into it.
7 Dia hoy Jesosy: Avelao izy, mba hotehiriziny ho amin’ ny andro hanamboarany Ahy halevina io.
Jesus therefore said, Let her alone, she hath reserved this as for the day of my burial.
8 Fa ny malahelo dia etỳ aminareo mandrakariva; fa Izaho tsy mba ho etỳ aminareo mandrakariva.
For the poor ye have always with you, but me ye have not always.
9 Ary ny vahoaka betsaka tamin’ ny Jiosy nahalala fa teo Izy, dia tonga teo, nefa tsy noho Jesosy ihany, fa mba hahita an’ i Lazarosy koa, ilay natsangany tamin’ ny maty.
And a great number of the Jews understanding that He was there, came not only on account of Jesus, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom He had raised from the dead.
10 Fa nihendry hahafaty an’ i Lazarosy koa ny lohan’ ny mpisorona,
Wherefore the chief priests took counsel to put Lazarus also to death.
11 satria izy no nialan’ ny maro tamin’ ny Jiosy ka ninoany an’ i Jesosy.
Because on his account many of the Jews went away from them, and believed on Jesus.
12 Ary nony ampitson’ iny ny vahoaka betsaka, izay tonga ho amin’ ny andro firavoravoana, rehefa nahare fa hankany Jerosalema Jesosy,
The next day a great multitude that were come to the feast, hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm-trees,
13 dia naka sampan-drofia ka nivoaka hitsena Azy sady niantso hoe: Hosana! Isaorana anie ny Mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, Ilay avy amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah.
and went out to meet Him, and cried, Hosanna! blessed be the king of Israel, who cometh in the name of the Lord.
14 Ary Jesosy nahita zana-boriky anankiray, dia nitaingina azy, araka ny voasoratra hoe:
And Jesus having gotten a young ass sat thereon,
15 Aza matahotra, ry Ziona zanakavavy; indro, avy ny Mpanjakanao mitaingina zana-boriky.
as it is written, "Fear not, O daughter of Sion, behold thy king cometh sitting on an ass's colt."
16 Izany zavatra izany dia tsy fantatry ny mpianany tamin’ ny voalohany; fa rehefa niditra tamin’ ny voninahiny Jesosy, dia vao nahatsiaro izy fa voasoratra hilaza Azy izany zavatra izany, ary efa nataony taminy izany.
Now his disciples did not understand these things at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written concerning Him, and that they had done thus unto Him.
17 Ary nanambara Azy ny vahoaka izay teny aminy, fony Izy niantso an’ i Lazarosy hivoaka tamin’ ny fasana ka nanangana azy tamin’ ny maty.
And the people that were with Him testified, that He called Lazarus out of the grave, and raised him from the dead:
18 Ary izany koa no nitsenan’ ny vahoaka Azy, satria efa reny fa nanao izany famantarana izany Izy.
and for this reason the people went to meet Him, because they heard that He had done this miracle.
19 Ary tamin’ izany ny Fariseo dia nifampilaza hoe: Hitanareo fa tsy mahefa na inona na inona akory ianareo; indro, efa lasa manaraka Azy avokoa izao tontolo izao.
The pharisees therefore said among themselves, Do ye not see that ye prevail nothing? Behold, all the world is gone after Him.
20 Ary nisy Grika sasany tamin’ izay niakatra hivavaka tamin’ ny andro firavoravoana,
And among those that came up to worship at the feast there were certain Greeks:
21 ary izy ireo nankany amin’ i Filipo avy any Betsaida any Galilia, dia nangataka taminy ka nanao hoe: Tompoko, mba ta-hahita an’ i Jesosy izahay.
that came to Philip who was of Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we have a desire to see Jesus.
22 Dia lasa Filipo nilaza tamin’ i Andrea; ary Andrea sy Filipo lasa nilaza tamin’ i Jesosy.
And Philip cometh and telleth Andrew, and then Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
23 Ary Jesosy namaly azy hoe: Tonga ny fotoana hankalazana ny Zanak’ olona.
And Jesus answered them saying, The time is come that the Son of man is to be glorified.
24 Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Raha tsy latsaka ao amin’ ny tany ny voambary ka maty, dia mitoetra foana izy; fa raha maty kosa izy, dia hahavokatra be.
Though I tell you indeed and in truth, Except a grain of wheat fall into the ground and die, it remaineth alone; but if it die, it produceth much fruit.
25 Izay tia ny ainy no mahavery izany; fa izay mankahala ny ainy amin’ izao fiainana izao no hiaro izany ho amin’ ny fiainana mandrakizay. (aiōnios g166)
So he, that loveth his life, shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it unto life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
26 Raha misy olona manompo Ahy, dia aoka izy hanaraka Ahy, ary izay itoerako, dia ao koa no hitoeran’ ny mpanompoko; raha misy olona manompo Ahy, dia hankalaza azy ny Ray.
If any man would serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: and if any one serve me, him will my Father honour.
27 Ankehitriny mangorohoro ny fanahiko; ary ahoana no holazaiko: Ray ô, vonjeo Aho ho afaka amin’ ity ora ity? nefa izao no nihaviako ho amin’ ity ora ity;
Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I to this hour.
28 Ray ô, mankalazà ny anaranao. Dia nisy feo avy tany an-danitra nanao hoe: Efa nankalaza azy Aho, ary hankalaza azy indray.
Father, glorify thy name. Then came a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
29 Ary ny vahoaka izay nitsangana teo ka nahare dia nanao hoe: Kotrokorana izany. Hoy ny sasany: Anjely no niteny taminy.
The people therefore that stood by, and heard it, said, That it was thunder: but others said, it was an angel spake to Him.
30 Jesosy namaly ka nanao hoe: Tsy noho Izaho no nahatongavan’ izany feo izany, fa noho ianareo.
Jesus answered and said, This voice came not for my sake, but for yours.
31 Tonga ankehitriny ny fitsarana izao tontolo izao; ankehitriny ny andrianan’ izao tontolo izao no horoahina.
Now is the judgement of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
32 Ary Izaho, raha asandratra hiala amin’ ny tany, dia hitaona ny olona rehetra hanatona Ahy.
And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, shall draw all men unto me.
33 Izany no nolazainy hanambara izay fahafatesana efa hiaretany.
This He said, signifying what death He should die.
34 Dia namaly Azy ny vahoaka ka nanao hoe: Efa renay tamin’ ny lalàna fa Kristy haharitra mandrakizay; koa ahoana no ilazanao hoe: Tsy maintsy hasandratra ny Zanak’ olona? Iza moa izany Zanak’ olona izany? (aiōn g165)
The people answered Him, We have heard out of the law, that the Messiah abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, the Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man? (aiōn g165)
35 Dia hoy Jesosy taminy: Mbola kely ihany no hitoeran’ ny mazava aminareo. Mandehana, raha mbola manana ny mazava ianareo, mba tsy hahatratra anareo ny maizina; fa izay mandeha amin’ ny maizina dia tsy mahalala izay alehany.
Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while the light is to be with you; walk while ye have the light, least darkness overtake you; for he that walketh in the dark knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 Raha mbola manana ny mazava ianareo, dia minoa ny mazava, mba ho tonga zanaky ny mazava. Rehefa nilaza izany Jesosy, dia niala Izy ka niery azy.
While ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and then went away, and concealed himself from them.
37 Nefa na dia efa nanao izany famantarana betsaka izany teo anatrehany aza Izy, dia tsy mba nino Azy ireo,
But though He had done so many miracles before their eyes, yet they did not believe on Him:
38 mba hahatanteraka ny teny nataon’ Isaia mpaminany hoe: Tompoko, iza no nino ny teny nampitondraina anay? Ary iza no nampisehoana ny sandrin’ i Jehovah?
so that the word of Esaias the prophet was fulfilled, which he spake, saying, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
39 Izany no tsy nahaizany nino, satria hoy koa Isaia:
And therefore they could not believe; for Esaias had also said,
40 Efa nanajamba ny masony sy nanamafy ny fony Izy, Mba tsy hahita ny masony, na hahalala ny fony, Dia tsy hibebaka izy, Ka tsy hahasitrana azy Aho.
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
41 Izany teny izany no nolazain’ Isaia, satria nahita ny voninahiny izy ka nilaza Azy.
These things said Esaias when he saw his glory, and spake concerning Him.
42 Kanefa maro tamin’ ny mpanapaka aza no nino Azy; nefa noho ny Fariseo dia tsy nanaiky ireo, fandrao havoaka hiala amin’ ny synagoga.
There were however many of the chief rulers that believed on Him; but because of the pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be excommunicated.
43 Fa tia ny voninahitra avy amin’ ny olona izy ireo, fa tsy ny voninahitra avy amin’ Andriamanitra.
For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
44 Ary Jesosy niantso ka nanao hoe: Izay mino Ahy, dia tsy Izaho no inoany, fa Izay naniraka Ahy.
And Jesus raised his voice, and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me only, but on Him that sent me:
45 Ary izay mahita Ahy dia mahita Izay naniraka Ahy.
and he that beholdeth me, beholdeth Him that sent me.
46 Izaho tonga amin’ izao tontolo izao ho fahazavana, mba tsy hitoetra ao amin’ ny maizina izay rehetra mino Ahy.
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me, might not abide in darkness.
47 Ary raha misy mandre ny teniko ka tsy mitandrina, Izaho tsy mitsara azy; fa tsy tonga hitsara izao tontolo izao Aho, fa hamonjy izao tontolo izao.
And if any one hear my words and believe not, I do not condemn him: for I am not now come to condemn the world, but to save the world.
48 Izay manda Ahy ka tsy mandray ny teniko, dia manana izay mitsara azy: ny teny izay nolazaiko, izany ihany no hitsara azy amin’ ny andro farany,
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word, that I have spoken, will condemn him at the last day.
49 satria Izaho tsy niteny ho Ahy, fa ny Ray Izay naniraka Ahy, Izy no nandidy Ahy izay holazaiko sy izay hotoriko.
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father, who sent me, gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
50 Ary fantatro fa fiainana mandrakizay ny didiny; koa izay lazaiko dia lazaiko araka izay nolazain’ ny Ray tamiko. (aiōnios g166)
And I know that his commandment is life eternal: the things therefore which I speak, I so speak, as the Father hath directed me. (aiōnios g166)
