Yohana 12
1 Siku sita kabla ya Pasaka, Yesu kayenda Bethani kwa abile Lazaro, ywembe ywabile atikumfufua boka mu kiwo.
Jesus, therefore, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had died, whom He raised out of the dead;
2 Bai kabamwandalia chakulya cha kitamwinyo, ni Martha atikuntumikya, wakati woo Lazaro abile yumo wa balo batamile mu'chakulya pamope ni Yesu.
they made, therefore, a dinner to Him there, and Martha was ministering, and Lazarus was one of those reclining together with Him;
3 Boka po Mariamu atitola rati ya manukato gapangitwe kwa nardo safi, yabile ya thamani ngolo, atikumpaka Yesu mumagolo, ni kunputa magolo kwa nywili yake; nyumba yoti yatinungya harufu ya galo manukato.
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 Yuda Iskariote, yumo ywa balo anapunzi bake, ywabile nga ywaamsaliti Yesu, kabaya,
Therefore one of His disciples—Judas Iscariot, of Simon, who is about to deliver Him up—says,
5 “Kwa mwanja namani manukato aga gapemewa kwa dinari mia tatu ni kuapeya maskini?”
“Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?”
6 Ni ywembe ywabaya ago, nga kwa kubahurumia kwaa maskini, ila kwa sababu abile mwii: ywembe nga ywakamwile mpuko wa mbanje ni abile atitola baadhi ya ibekwile moo kwa ajili yake mwene.
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 Yesu abayite, “Nleke abeke chaabile nacho kwa ajili ya lisoba lya masiko yango.
Jesus, therefore, said, “Permit her; she has kept it for the day of My embalming,
8 Maskini mwabile nabo masoba yoti; lakini mwatama kwaa ni nenga masoba yoti.”
for you always have the poor with yourselves, and you do not always have Me.”
9 Bai kipenga kikolo sa ayahudi bayowine kuwa Yesu abile kwoo, nabo baisile, kwa ajili ya Yesu, ili bamlole ni Lazaro ywamfufue Yesu kuoma mu'kiwo.
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 Na akolo wa Makuhani kabapanga shauri ili wamukage Lazaro;
and the chief priests took counsel, that they may also kill Lazarus,
11 mana kwa ajili yake banyansima mu'uyahudi batiyenda na kumwaminiya Yesu.
because on account of him many of the Jews were going away, and were believing in Jesus.
12 Na lisoba lya ibele kipenga kikolo sa bandu saisile mu'sikukuu. Kabaypwine kuwa Yesu andaisa Yerusalemu,
On the next day, a great multitude that came to the celebration, having heard that Jesus comes to Jerusalem,
13 Kabatola matawi ya nkowa wa ntende ni kuoma panja kuyenda kumlaki ni kukombwa lilobe, “Hosana! Atibarikiwa ywembe ywaisa kwa lina lya Ngwana, Mpwalume wa Israeli.”
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 ampatike mwana mponda ni kumpanda: kati yaiandikilwe,
and Jesus having found a young donkey sat on it, according as it is written,
15 “Kana uyogope, binti Sayuni; linga. Mpwalume bako andaisa, atikumpanda mwana mbonda.”
“Do not fear, daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes, sitting on a colt of a donkey.”
16 Anapunzi bake baelewite kwaa makowe aga apo kwanza; lakini Yesu paatukuzwe, nga kabakombokya ya kuwa makowe aga gatiandikilwa ywembe na ya kuwa bapangite makowe aga kwake.
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 Bai lelo likundi lya bandu babile pamope ni Yesu wakati paakemile Lazaro kuoma mu'likaburi, kabashuhudia kwa wenge.
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 Na yabile kwa sababu yee kuwa likundi lya bandu baisile kumlaki kwa sababu bayowine kuwa aipangite ishara yee.
because of this the multitude also met Him, because they heard of His having done this sign,
19 Mafarisayo kababakiyana bene kwa bene, “Linga nambeambe muweza kwaa kupanga lolote; linga ulimwengu uyendike kwake.”
therefore the Pharisees said among themselves, “You see that you do not gain anything, behold, the world went after Him.”
20 Nambeambe baadhi ya Ayunani babile nkati ya balo babile batiyenda ku'sikukuu.
And there were certain Greeks out of those coming up that they may worship in the celebration,
21 Aba kabamwendea Filipo, ywabile aboka Bethsaida ya Galilaya, kabanloba bakibaya, “Ngwana, twenga twatamaniya kumwona 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 kayenda kummakiya Andrea; Andrea ni Filipo kabayenda kummakiya Yesu.
Philip comes and tells Andrew, and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
23 Yesu kaayangwa ni kubaya, “Saa iikite kwa ajili ya mwana wa Adamu kutukuzwa.
And Jesus responded to them, saying, “The hour has come that the Son of Man may be glorified;
24 Amini, amini, naabakiya, chembe ya ngano mana itei itomboka kwaa mu'nnema na waa, utama nyonyonyoo kichake; ila mana itiwaa, ipambika matunda ganyansima.
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 Ywembe ywaupenda uhai wake alowa kuupoteza; ila ywembe ywauchukyanga uhai wake mu'ulimwengu woo alowa kuusalimisha hata ukoto wange yomoka. (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 Mundu yoyote ywanitumikiya nenga, na anikengame, nenga panibile, nga na mmanda wango apalikwa kuwa. Mundu yeyote ywanitumikiya, Tate alowa kumweshimu.
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 Nambeambe roho yango itifadhaika; nenga nabaya kinamani?'Tate unilopwe mu'saa yee?' Lakini ni kwa kusudi lee niikite saa yee.
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 Tate, ulitukuze lina lyako,” Boka po lilobe liisile kuboka kumaunde no baya, “Natikulitukuza na nenga natikulitukuza kae.”
Father, glorify Your Name.” Therefore there came a voice out of Heaven, “I both glorified, and again I will glorify [it]”;
29 Bai bandu bayemite papipi ni ywembe kabayowa ni kubaya kuwa kwabile ni ngurumo. Wenge watibaya, “Malaika atilongela na ywembe.”
the multitude, therefore, having stood and heard, were saying that there has been thunder; others said, “A messenger has spoken to Him.”
30 Yesu kaayangwa no baya, “Lilobe lee lyaisilee kwaa kwa ajili yango, ila kwa ajili yinu.
Jesus answered and said, “This voice has not come because of Me, but because of you;
31 Nambeambe hukumu ya ulimwengu woo ibile: Nambeambe nkolo wa ulimwengu woo alowa tekwanilwa panja.
now is a judgment of this world, now will the ruler of this world be cast forth;
32 Na nenga mana niinuliwe nnani ya nnema, nalowa kuwavuta woti kwango.”
and I, if I may be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself.”
33 Atibaya nyoo akibabonekeya aina ya kiwo alowa waa.
And this He said signifying by what death He was about to die;
34 Bandu kabanyangwa, “Twenga tuyowine mu'saliya ya kuwa Kristo alowa tama hata milele. Ni wenga wabaya kinamani, “Mwana wa Adamu lazima ainulilwe kunani? Ayoo mwana wa Adamu ywa nyai?” (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 Bai Yesu kaamakiya, “Bweya ibile pamope ni mwenga muda nchunu. Muyendeli maadamu mubile ni bweya, ili libendo kana liise kwaa kubaweza. Ywembe ywayenda mu'libendo atangite kwaa paaayenda.
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 Mwabile mu'bweya, muiamini bweya yee ili mpate kuwa bana ba bweya.” Yesu kaabaya aga na boka poo kayenda kuificha kna bamweni.
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 Ingawa Yesu apangite ishara zanyansima namna yee nnonge yabe, bado bamwaminiye kwaa.
yet He, having done so many signs before them, they were not believing in Him,
38 Ili litimye neno lya nabii Isaya, abayite: “Ngwana, ywa nyai ywa sadiki habari yitu? Ni luboko lwa Ngwana atifunulilwa nyai?”
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 Nga sababu bembe baaminiye kwaa, maana Isaya abayite kae,
Because of this they were not able to believe, that again Isaiah said,
40 “Atikwapanga ipofu mu minyo yabe, na aipangite mioyo yabe migumu, ili bamweni kwaa mu'minyo yabe ni kuyatanga kwa mioyo yabe, ni kabalopolelwa ni nenga kuwaponya.”
“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 Isaya abayite maneno ago kwa kuwa aubweni utukufu wa Yesu ni atilongela habari zake.
Isaiah said these things when he saw His glory, and spoke of Him.
42 Lakini hata akolo banansima batikumwamini Yesu; ila kwa sababu ya Mafarisayo, kabakiri kwaa ili kana batengwe na lisinagogi.
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 Bapendike sifa za bandu kuliko sifa zibokite kwa Nnongo
for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.
44 Yesu kakombwa lilobe no baya, “Ywembe ywaaniminiye nenga, aniaminiye kwaa nenga kichangu ila ni ywembe ywanitumile nenga.
And Jesus cried and said, “He who is believing in Me, does not believe in Me, but in Him who sent Me;
45 ni ywembe ywaanibona nenga ambona ni ywembe ywaanitumile.
and He who is beholding Me, beholds Him who sent Me;
46 Nenga niisile kati bweya ya ulimwengu ila kila mundu ywaniaminiye nenga atame kwaa mu'libendo.
I—light to the world—have come, that everyone who is believing in Me may not remain in the darkness;
47 Mana itei mundu ywoywoti ywaayowine maneno yango lakini kana agakamwe, nenga nalowa kumhukumu; mana niisile kwaa kuhukumu ulimwengu ila kuulopwa ulimwengu.
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 Yeyote ywanipala kwaa nenga kana ayakubali maneno yango, abile ni ywamuhukumu: neno lee nalibayite nga lalowa kumhukumu lisoba lya mwisho.
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 Mana nenga nabaya kwaa kwa nafsi yango kae. Ila ni Tate ywanipeleki, ywembe mwene ywanitumile kugabaya yanilongela.
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,
