UJohane 13
1 Kwathi ungakafiki umkhosi wephasika, uJesu esazi ukuthi ihola lakhe laselifikile ukuthi asuke kulumhlaba aye kuYise, esebathandile abakhe abasemhlabeni, wabathanda kwaze kwaba sekupheleni.
Now before the feast of the passover, when Yahushua knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
2 Ukudla kwantambama sekwenziwe, udiyabhola esekufakile enhliziyweni kaJudasi Iskariyothi, kaSimoni, ukuthi amnikele,
And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;
3 uJesu ekwazi ukuthi uYise unikele izinto zonke ezandleni zakhe, lokuthi wavela kuNkulunkulu njalo uya kuNkulunkulu,
Yahushua knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from YHWH, and went to YHWH;
4 wasukuma ekudleni kwantambama, wakhupha izembatho zakhe, wathatha ilembu wazithandela ngalo.
He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
5 Emva kwalokhu wathela amanzi emganwini, waqala ukugezisa inyawo zabafundi, lokuzesula ngelembu ayezithandele ngalo.
After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
6 Wasefika kuSimoni Petro; yena wasesithi kuye: Nkosi, wena ugezisa inyawo zami yini?
Then cometh he to Simon Kepha: and Kepha saith unto him, Rabbi, dost thou wash my feet?
7 UJesu waphendula wathi kuye: Engikwenzayo mina, kawukwazi khathesi, kodwa uzakwazi emva kwalezizinto.
Yahushua answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 UPetro wathi kuye: Kawusoze ugezise inyawo zami kuze kube laphakade. UJesu wamphendula wathi: Uba ngingakugezisi, kawulasabelo lami. (aiōn g165)
Kepha saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Yahushua answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. (aiōn g165)
9 USimoni Petro wathi kuye: Nkosi, kakungabi zinyawo zami zodwa, kodwa lezandla lekhanda.
Simon Kepha saith unto him, Rabbi, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10 UJesu wathi kuye: Ogezisiweyo kasweli lutho ngaphandle kokugeziswa inyawo, kodwa uhlambulukile ngokupheleleyo; lina-ke lihlambulukile, kodwa-ke kakusini lonke.
Yahushua saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
11 Ngoba wayemazi lowo owayezamnikela; ngenxa yalokhu wathi: Kalihlambulukanga lonke.
For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12 Esegezisile inyawo zabo, wathatha izembatho zakhe, wabuya wahlala phansi, wathi kubo: Liyakwazi yini engikwenze kini?
So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Lina lingibiza lithi: Mfundisi, lokuthi Nkosi; likutsho kuhle, ngoba ngiyikho.
Ye call me Master and Rabbi: and ye say well; for so I am.
14 Ngakho uba mina, iNkosi loMfundisi, ngigezise inyawo zenu, lani-ke lifanele ukugezisana inyawo.
If I then, your Rabbi and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 Ngoba ngilinikile isibonelo, ukuze lenze lani njengoba mina ngenzile kini.
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Inceku kayinkulu kulenkosi yayo, lothunyiweyo kamkhulu kulomthumileyo.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his master; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 Uba lisazi lezizinto, libusisiwe uba lizenza.
If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
18 Kangikhulumi ngani lonke; mina ngiyabazi engibakhethileyo; kodwa ukuze kugcwaliseke umbhalo othi: Odla lami isinkwa ungiphakamisele isithende sakhe.
I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
19 Sengilitshela kusukela khathesi kungakenzeki, ukuze, nxa sekusenzeka, likholwe ukuthi nginguye.
Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
20 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Owemukela loba ngubani engimthumileyo, wemukela mina; lowemukela mina, wemukela ongithumileyo.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
21 UJesu esetshilo lezizinto wakhathazeka emoyeni, wafakaza wathi: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini, omunye wenu uzanginikela.
When Yahushua had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
22 Ngakho abafundi bakhangelana, bengaqondi ukuthi ukhuluma ngobani.
Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
23 Kwakweyeme esifubeni sikaJesu omunye wabafundi bakhe, uJesu ayemthanda;
Now there was leaning on Yahushua ' bosom one of his disciples, whom Yahushua loved.
24 ngakho uSimoni Petro wamqhweba ukubuza ukuthi ngubani akhuluma ngaye.
Simon Kepha therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.
25 Yena-ke eqamela esifubeni sikaJesu, wathi kuye: Nkosi, ngubani?
He then lying on Yahushua ' breast saith unto him, Rabbi, who is it?
26 UJesu waphendula wathi: Ngulowo mina engizamnika ucezu sengilutshebile. Kwathi eselutshebile ucezu, walunika uJudasi Iskariyothi kaSimoni.
Yahushua answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27 Futhi emva kocezu, uSathane wasengena kuye. UJesu wasesithi kuye: Okwenzayo, kwenze masinyane.
And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Yahushua unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
28 Kodwa kakho kwababehlezi ekudleni owayekwazi ukuthi ukutsholoni kuye.
Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
29 Ngoba abanye bacabanga ukuthi, njengoba uJudasi wayelesikhwama, uJesu wathi kuye: Thenga esikuswelayo emkhosini; loba ukuthi kanike abayanga okunye.
For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Yahushua had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
30 Lowo wathi eselwemukele ucezu, wahle waphuma; kwakusebusuku.
He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.
31 Ngakho kwathi esephumile, uJesu wathi: Khathesi iNdodana yomuntu idunyisiwe, loNkulunkulu udunyisiwe kuyo.
Therefore, when he was gone out, Yahushua said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and YHWH is glorified in him.
32 Uba uNkulunkulu edunyiswe kuyo, loNkulunkulu uzayidumisa kuye ngokwakhe, njalo uzahle ayidumise.
If YHWH be glorified in him, YHWH shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
33 Bantwanyana, ngiselani isikhatshana. Lizangidinga, futhi njengalokhu ngatsho kumaJuda ukuthi: Lapho mina engiya khona, lingeze leza lina; ngitsho lakini khathesi.
Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
34 Ngilinika umlayo omutsha, ukuthi lithandane; njengalokhu ngilithandile, lani-ke lithandane.
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 Ngalokhu bonke bazakwazi ukuthi lingabafundi bami, uba lilothando omunye komunye.
By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
36 USimoni Petro wathi kuye: Nkosi, uya ngaphi? UJesu wamphendula wathi: Lapho engiya khona, ungengilandele khathesi, kodwa uzangilandela emva kwalokhu.
Simon Kepha said unto him, Rabbi, whither goest thou? Yahushua answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
37 UPetro wathi kuye: Nkosi, ngingekulandele khathesi ngani? Impilo yami ngizayibekela wena phansi.
Kepha said unto him, Rabbi, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38 UJesu wamphendula wathi: Impilo yakho uzayibekela mina phansi yini? Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kuwe: Iqhude kalisoze likhale uze ungiphike kathathu.
Yahushua answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
