Jaona 13
1 Ary talohan’ ny andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny Paska, satria fantatr’ i Jesosy fa tonga ny fotoana hialany amin’ izao tontolo izao ho any amin’ ny Ray, ary efa tia ny Azy izay amin’ izao tontolo izao Izy, dia tia azy hatramin’ ny farany.
Before the Passover Festival began, Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave the world and go to the Father. He had loved those who were his own in the world, and he loved them to the last.
2 Ary raha mbola teo amin’ ny fisakafoana hariva, ary Jodasy Iskariota, zanak’ i Simona, efa nomen’ ny devoly saina rahateo mba hamadika Azy,
The Devil had already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon;
3 sady fantatr’ i Jesosy koa fa ny Ray efa nanolotra ny zavatra rehetra ho eo an-tànany, ary Andriamanitra no nihaviany, sady Andriamanitra koa no hiverenany,
and at supper, Jesus — although knowing that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he had come from God, and was to return to God —
4 dia nitsangana niala teo am-pihinanana Izy ka nametraka ny lambany ary naka lamba famaohana, ka nisikinany;
Rose from his place, and, taking off his upper garments, tied a towel round his waist.
5 ary rehefa vita izany, dia nampidina rano tamin’ ny tavy Izy ka nanomboka nanasa ny tongotry ny mpianatra sy namaoka azy tamin’ ny lamba famaohana izay nisikinany.
He then poured some water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel which was tied round him.
6 Dia nankeo amin’ i Simona Petera Izy; fa hoy Petera taminy: Tompoko, Hianao va hanasa ny tongotro?
When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said: “You, Master! Are you going to wash my feet?”
7 Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Izay ataoko dia tsy fantatrao ankehitriny, fa ho fantatrao rahatrizay.
“You do not understand now what I am doing,” replied Jesus, “but you will learn by and by.”
8 Fa hoy Petera taminy: Sanatria raha hanasa ny tongotro Hianao. Jesosy namaly azy hoe: Raha tsy hosasako ianao, dia tsy manana anjara amiko. (aiōn g165)
“You shall never wash my feet!” exclaimed Peter. “Unless I wash you,” answered Jesus, “you have nothing in common with me.” (aiōn g165)
9 Dia hoy Simona Petera taminy: Tompoko, tsy ny tongotro ihany ary, fa ny tanako sy ny lohako koa.
“Then, Master, not my feet only,” exclaimed Simon Peter, “but also my hands and my head.”
10 Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Izay efa nandro tsy mila hosasana, afa-tsy ny tongotra ihany, fa efa madio avokoa; ary ianareo dia madio, nefa tsy ianareo rehetra.
“He who has bathed,” replied Jesus, “has no need to wash, unless it be his feet, but is altogether clean; and you,” he said to the disciples, “are clean, yet not all of you.”
11 Fa fantany ilay efa hamadika Azy; koa izany no nilazany hoe: Tsy madio avokoa ianareo rehetra.
For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said ‘You are not all clean.’
12 Ary rehefa voasasany ny tongony, dia nandray ny lambany Izy ka nipetraka indray, dia nanao taminy hoe: Fantatrareo va izay nataoko taminareo?
When he had washed their feet, and had put on his upper garments and taken his place, he spoke to them again. “Do you understand what I have been doing to you?” he asked.
13 Hianareo manao Ahy hoe Mpampianatra sy Tompo; ary marina ny filazanareo, fa izany tokoa Aho.
“You yourselves call me ‘the Teacher’ and ‘the Master’, and you are right, for I am both.
14 Koa raha Izaho, Tompo sy Mpampianatra aza, no nanasa ny tongotrareo, ianareo kosa mba tokony hifanasa tongotra.
If I, then — ‘the Master’ and ‘the Teacher’ — have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet;
15 Fianarana no nomeko anareo, mba hanaovanareo araka izay nataoko taminareo.
for I have given you an example, so that you may do just as I have done to you.
16 Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Ny andevo tsy lehibe noho ny tompony, na ny iraka noho ny maniraka azy.
In truth I tell you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor yet a messenger than the man who sends him.
17 Raha fantatrareo izany, dia sambatra ianareo, raha manao izany.
Now that you know these things, happy are you if you do them.
18 Tsy milaza anareo rehetra Aho; fa fantatro izay nofidiko; fa mba hahatanteraka ny Soratra Masìna hoe: Izay homana ny mofoko no nanangana ny ombelahin-tongony hamely Ahy.
I am not speaking about all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but this is in fulfilment of the words of Scripture — ‘He that is eating my bread has lifted his heel against me.’
19 Hatramin’ izao dia milaza aminareo Aho, raha tsy mbola tonga izany, mba hinoanareo, rehefa tonga, fa Izaho no Izy.
For the future I shall tell you of things before they take place, so that, when they take place, you may believe that I am what I am.
20 Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa: Izay mandray izay hirahiko dia mandray Ahy; ary izay mandray Ahy dia mandray izay naniraka Ahy.
In truth I tell you, he who receives any one that I send receives me; and he who receives me receives him who sent me.”
21 Rehefa nilaza izany Jesosy, dia nangorohoro ny fanahiny, ka nanambara hoe Izy: Lazaiko aminareo marina dia marina tokoa fa ny anankiray aminareo no hamadika Ahy.
After saying this, Jesus was much troubled, and said solemnly: “In truth I tell you that it is one of you who will betray me.”
22 Dia nifampijerijery ny mpianatra ka nieritreritra izay iray nolazainy.
The disciples looked at one another, wondering whom he meant.
23 Ary nisy mpianatra anankiray nipetraka nihinana teo anilan’ i Jesosy, dia ilay tian’ i Jesosy.
Next to Jesus, in the place on his right hand, was one of his disciples, whom he loved.
24 Simona Petera nanatsika azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Lazao izay izy.
So Simon Peter made signs to that disciple, and whispered: “Tell me who it is that he means.”
25 Ary raha mbola nipetraka tahaka izany izy, dia niraika ho amin’ ny tratran’ i Jesosy ka nanao taminy hoe: Tompoko, iza moa izany?
Being in this position, that disciple leant back on Jesus’ shoulder, and asked him: “Who is it, Master?”
26 Dia namaly Jesosy ka nanao hoe: Ilay homeko ny sombin-kanina lemako no izy. Ary rehefa nolemany ny sombin-kanina, dia noraisiny ka nomeny an’ i Jodasy, zanak’ i Simona Iskariota.
“It is the one,” answered Jesus, “to whom I shall give a piece of bread after dipping it in the dish.” And, when Jesus had dipped the bread, he took it and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot;
27 Ary manaraka izany no nidiran’ i Satana tao aminy, ka hoy Jesosy taminy: Izay ataonao dia ataovy faingana.
and it was then, after he had received it, that Satan took possession of him. So Jesus said to him: “Do at once what you are going to do.”
28 Fa tsy nisy tamin’ izay nipetraka nihinana nahalala ny anton’ ny nilazany izany taminy.
But no one at table understood why he said this to Judas.
29 Fa nataon’ ny sasany fa satria Jodasy no nitondra ny kitapo, no nilazan’ i Jesosy taminy hoe: Vidio ny zavatra ilaintsika amin’ ny andro firavoravoana, na mba hanome zavatra ho an’ ny malahelo.
Some thought that, as Judas kept the purse, Jesus meant that he was to buy some things needed for the Festival, or to give something to the poor.
30 Ary rehefa nandray ny sombin-kanina izy, dia nivoaka niaraka tamin’ izay; ary efa alina ny andro.
After taking the piece of bread, Judas went out immediately; and it was night.
31 Ary tamin’ izay, nony efa nivoaka izy, dia hoy Jesosy: Ankehitriny dia efa ankalazaina ny Zanak’ olona; ary Andriamanitra no ankalazaina eo aminy.
When Judas had gone out, Jesus said: “Now the Son of Man has been exalted, and God has been exalted through him;
32 Ary Andriamanitra kosa hankalaza Azy amin’ ny tenany; eny, hankalaza Azy miaraka amin’ izay Izy.
and God will exalt him with himself — yes, he will exalt him forthwith.
33 Anaka, vetivety foana no sisa hitoerako eto aminareo. Hitady Ahy ianareo, ary araka ny voalazako tamin’ ny Jiosy hoe: Izay alehako tsy azonareo haleha, dia toy izany koa no lazaiko aminareo ankehitriny.
My children, I am to be with you but a little while longer. You will look for me; and what I said to the Jews — ‘You cannot come where I am going’ — I now say to you.
34 Didy vaovao no omeko anareo, dia ny mba hifankatiavanareo; eny, aoka ho tahaka ny fitiavako anareo no mba hifankatiavanareo kosa.
I give you a new commandment — Love one another; love one another as I have loved you.
35 Izany no hahafantaran’ ny olona rehetra fa mpianatro ianareo, raha mifankatia.
It is by this that every one will recognise you as my disciples — by your loving one another.”
36 Hoy Simona Petera taminy: Tompoko, hankaiza moa Hianao? Jesosy namaly hoe: Izay alehako, dia tsy azonao anarahana Ahy ankehitriny fa hanaraka Ahy ihany ianao rahatrizay.
“Where are you going, Master?” asked Peter. “I am going where you cannot now follow me,” answered Jesus, “but you shall follow me later.”
37 Hoy Petera taminy: Tompoko, nahoana no tsy mahazo manaraka Anao ankehitriny aho? Na ny aiko aza dia hafoiko noho ny aminao.
“Why cannot I follow you now, Master?” asked Peter. “I will lay down my life for you.”
38 Jesosy namaly hoe: Ny ainao va no hafoinao noho ny amiko? Lazaiko aminao marina dia marina tokoa: Tsy mbola hisy akoho haneno mandra-pandànao Ahy intelo.
“Will you lay down your life for me?” replied Jesus. “In truth I tell you, the cock will not crow till you have disowned me three times.
