Yohani 12
1 Pamberi pa mashaka sita ga msambu gwa Pasaka, Yesu kafikiti Betaniya pakaya pa Lazaru, muntu yakamzyusiyiti kulawa kwawahowiti.
Then six days before the Passover, Jesus went to Bethania, where Lazarus had died, whom Jesus raised up.
2 Aku wamtuliriti shiboga sha pamihi na Marita kaweriti kamtendera. Lazaru kaweriti yumu gwa walii wawaweriti wankuliya pamuhera na Yesu.
And they made a dinner for him there. And Martha was ministering. And truly, Lazarus was one of those who were sitting at table with him.
3 Mariya katoliti supa ya uturi yawayishema naridu iherepa ya mpiya zivuwa, kamswaga Yesu mumagulu na kugapukuta kwa viri zyakuwi numba yoseri inunkira uturi.
And then Mary took twelve ounces of pure spikenard ointment, very precious, and she anointed the feet of Jesus, and she wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
4 Yumu gwa wafundwa wa Yesu, Yuda Isikariyoti yakafiriti kumgalambuka Yesu, katakula,
Then one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was soon to betray him, said,
5 “Uturi awu waweza kuwuza kwa mpiya zya shibena mgongu sha myezi tisa na mpiya azi wawayupi wahushu?”
“Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the needy?”
6 Katakuliti hangu, kwakuwawonera ndiri wahushu lusungu, toziya kaweriti mwivi na yomberi ndo yakakoliti muhaku gwa mpiya na kavitoliti vyawatuliti amu.
Now he said this, not out of concern for the needy, but because he was a thief and, since he held the purse, he used to carry what was put into it.
7 Yesu katakula, “Mumleki mdala ayu! Kavituriti vyoseri vyakaweriti navi kwa lishaka lya kusilwa kwa neni.
But Jesus said: “Permit her, so that she may keep it against the day of my burial.
8 Wahushu mwanawu mashaka goseri, kumbiti hamuweri ndiri na neni mashaka goseri.”
For the poor, you have with you always. But me, you do always not have.”
9 Wayawudi wavuwa wapikiniriti handa Yesu Kabetaniya. Su womberi wagenditi aku, wapati kumwona Yesu, kayi wafiriti kumwona Lazaru ulii yakamzyusiyiti na Yesu kulawa kwa wahowiti.
Now a great multitude of the Jews knew that he was in that place, and so they came, not so much because of Jesus, but so that they might see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
10 Watambika wakulu wasakuliti ntambu ya kumlaga Lazaru,
And the leaders of the priests planned to put Lazarus to death also.
11 toziya Wayawudi wavuwa wawalemiti wayawu na wamjimira Yesu.
For many of the Jews, because of him, were going away and were believing in Jesus.
12 Shirawu yakuwi, lipinga likulu lya wantu wiziti kumsambu wapikiniriti Yesu kaweriti mnjira kwiza Yerusalemu.
Then, on the next day, the great crowd that had come to the feast day, when they had heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 Watola maputira ga mitendi, walawa kugenda kumwanka, wabota pawatakula, “Gwenga mlopoziya gwetu! Katekelerwi ayu yakiza mulitawu lya Mtuwa. Katekelerwi Mfalumi gwa Israeli.”
took branches of palm trees, and they went ahead to meet him. And they were crying out: “Hosanna! Blessed is he who arrives in the name of the Lord, the king of Israel!”
14 Yesu kakwena mwana punda, kalivaga pampindi pakuwi gambira ntambu yagatakuliti Malembu,
And Jesus found a small donkey, and he sat upon it, just as it is written:
15 “Kotu kutira gwe lushi lwa Sayuni, Mfalumi gwaku kamkwiza, Kalivaga pampindi pa mwana punda.”
“Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your king arrives, sitting on the colt of a donkey.”
16 Shipindi ashi wafundwa wakuwi wavimaniti ndiri shitwatira ashi shoseri, kumbiti Yesu pawamkwiswiti kala, womberi wagaholiti Malembu Mananagala gatakuliti kuusu yomberi na wagatenditi aga kwa yomberi.
At first, his disciples did not realize these things. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that these things happened to him.
17 Lipinga lya wantu walii wawaweriti pamuhera nayomberi shipindi pakamshemiti Lazaru kulawa mlipumba, kamzyusiya kulawa kwawahowiti, watakuliti yagalawiriti.
And so the crowd that had been with him, when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead, offered testimony.
18 Toziya ya aga, lipinga likulu lya wantu awa wamgenderiti Yesu, mana woseri wapikiniriti handa Yesu katenditi liuzauza ali.
Because of this, too, the crowd went out to meet him. For they heard that he had accomplished this sign.
19 Mafalisayu waligambiziyana, “Mwona? Hapeni tuwezi kutenda shoseri! Mlori, wantu wa pasipanu woseri wankumfata.”
Therefore, the Pharisees said among themselves: “Do you see that we are accomplishing nothing? Behold, the entire world has gone after him.”
20 Kuweriti na Wagiriki wamu mu wantu yawaweriti wiza Yerusalemu kumkwisa Mlungu mushipindi sha msambu.
Now there were certain Gentiles among those who went up so that they might worship on the feast day.
21 Womberi wamgenderiti Filipu, yakalawiriti Betisayida mu Galilaya na watakula, “Mtuwa, tufira kumwona Yesu.”
Therefore, these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and they petitioned him, saying: “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
22 Filipu kagenda na kamgambira Andereya na wawili wagenda na kumgambira Yesu.
Philip went and told Andrew. Next, Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
23 Yesu kawawankula, Saa isoka kala kwa Mwana gwa Muntu kukwiswa!
But Jesus answered them by saying: “The hour arrives when the Son of man shall be glorified.
24 Nukugambirani nakaka, mbunji ya nganu isigala mbunji hera payiyalwa ndiri mulitapaka na kuwola. Handa payiwola, su ilera mbeyu zivuwa.
Amen, amen, I say to you, unless the grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it yields much fruit.
25 Woseri yawafira ukomu wawu hawawuhoviyi, yakagahoviya makaliru gakuwi pasipanu, hakagaponiziyi kwa makaliru ga mashaka goseri. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever loves his life, will lose it. And whoever hates his life in this world, preserves it unto eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Yakafira kuntendera ndo mpaka kanfati, pawera neni na ntumintumi gwangu hakaweri, kayi muntu pakantendera Tati hakampanani ligoya.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me. And where I am, there too my minister shall be. If anyone has served me, my Father will honor him.
27 “Vinu rohu yaneni intama, ntakuli shishi? Ntakuli, ‘Tati, gunopoziyi shipindi ashi pashisoka?’ Kumbiti ayi ndo toziya ya kwiza. Su shimpiti shipindi ashi sha ntabiku.
Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say? Father, save me from this hour? But it is for this reason that I came to this hour.
28 Tati, Kakwiswi litawu lyakuwi.” Panu liziwu litakula kulawa kumpindi kwa Mlungu. “Nulikwisa na hanulikwisi kayi.”
Father, glorify your name!” And then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”
29 Lipinga lya wantu lyaligolokiti palii lipikaniriti liziwu ali na wamu wawu watakuliti, “Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kankuyowera nayomberi!”
Therefore, the crowd, which was standing near and had heard it, said that it was like thunder. Others were saying, “An Angel was speaking with him.”
30 Kumbiti Yesu kawagambira, “Liziwu ali lirandula ndiri kwajili yaneni, ira kwajili ya mwenga.
Jesus responded and said: “This voice came, not for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Vinu ndo shipindi sha pasipanu kutozwa, vinu mtuwa gwa pasipanu hawamwusiyi.
Now is the judgment of the world. Now will the prince of this world be cast out.
32 Neni panu panyasulwa kumpindi kwa Mlungu hanumkwezeniziyi kila muntu.”
And when I have been lifted up from the earth, I will draw all things to myself.”
33 Kakutakula hangu kalanguziya ntambu gaa hakahowi.
(Now he said this, signifying what kind of death he would die.)
34 Lipinga ali limwankula. Twenga watugambira Malagaliru getu handa Kristu hakalikali mashaka goseri. Su, guweza hashi kutakula eti mwana gwa Muntu imbidi kanyasulwi? Mwana gwa Muntu ndo gaa? (aiōn g165)
The crowd answered him: “We have heard, from the law, that the Christ remains forever. And so how can you say, ‘The Son of man must be lifted up?’ Who is this Son of man?” (aiōn g165)
35 Yesu kawagambira, “Gulangala haguweri pakati penu katepu hera. Mgendi toziya mnawu gulangala agu, ntiti hapeni iwapati, toziya yakagendagenda muntiti kavimana ndiri kwakagenda.
Therefore, Jesus said to them: “For a brief time, the Light is among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. But whoever walks in darkness does not know where is he going.
36 Shipindi shamuwera na gulangala agu, mugujimiri, su mpati kuwera wantu wa gulangala.” Pakalongiti kala visoweru avi, Yesu kagenditi zakuwi na kulififa kutali na womberi.
While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may be sons of the Light.” Jesus spoke these things, and then he went away and hid himself from them.
37 Tembera Yesu katenditi mauzauza goseri aga palongolu pawu, womberi wamjimira ndiri.
And although he had done such great signs in their presence, they did not believe in him,
38 Su visoweru vyakatakuliti Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu vitimiya. “Mtuwa, gaa yakajimiriti ujumbi watutakuliti? Na uwezu wa Mtuwa ulilanguziya kwa gaa?”
so that the word of the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, which says: “Lord, who has believed in our hearing? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Na hangu womberi waweza ndiri kujimira, toziya Isaya katakula viraa,
Because of this, they were not able to believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “Mlungu kagatula lwisi masu gawu Na kagazezetiya mahala gawu, Wawoni ndiri kwa masu gawu, Wavimani ndiri kwa mahala gawu, Na wanizira ndiri neni, Mlungu katakula, Su mpati kuwaponiziya.”
“He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, so that they may not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted: and then I would heal them.”
41 Isaya katakuriti visoweru avi toziya kawoniti ukwisa wa Yesu, pakatakula visoweru vyakuwi.
These things Isaiah said, when he saw his glory and was speaking about him.
42 Ata hangu, kuvuwa kwa watuwa wa wakulu wa Shiyawudi wamjimiriti Yesu. Kumbiti toziya ya mafalisayu, wamjimiriti ndiri paweru kwa kutira handa wawatuli gweka mnumba ya Mlungu.
Yet truly, many of the leaders also believed in him. But because of the Pharisees, they did not confess him, so that they would not be cast out of the synagogue.
43 Wafiriti kuzyumwa na wantu kuliku kuzyumwa na Mlungu.
For they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.
44 Shakapanu Yesu katakula kwa liziwu likulu, “Muntu yakanjimira, kanjimira ndiri neni hera, ira kamjimira viraa uliya yakantumiti.
But Jesus cried out and said: “Whoever believes in me, does not believe in me, but in him who sent me.
45 Yakamona neni kankumwona viraa ulii yakantumiti.
And whoever sees me, sees him who sent me.
46 Neni na Gulangala, niza pasipanu su woseri wawanjimira waweri ndiri muntiti.
I have arrived as a light to the world, so that all who believe in me might not remain in darkness.
47 Yakapikanira shisoweru shangu uganu kagakola ndiri, neni hapeni numtozi, hanumtozi ndiri. Niza ndiri kuwatoza wantu wa pasipanu ira kuwalopoziya.
And if anyone has heard my words and not kept them, I do not judge him. For I did not come so that I may judge the world, but so that I may save the world.
48 Woseri yawanema neni na kuujimira ndiri ujumbi waneni, kwana yumu yakiza kuwatoza. Visoweru vyantakula haviweri vyakuwatoza mulishaka lya kupelera.
Whoever despises me and does not accept my words has one who judges him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him on the last day.
49 Ayi ndo nakaka, toziya neni ntakula ndiri kwa uwezu wangu namweni, kumbiti Tati yakantumiti ndomweni yakantumiti ntakuli shishi na nyoweri shishi.
For I am not speaking from myself, but from the Father who sent me. He gave a commandment to me as to what I should say and how I should speak.
50 Naneni nuvimana weri lilagaliru lyakuwi lijega ukomu wa mashaka goseri. Su, neni ntakula hera galii Tati yakanagaliriti nugatakuli.” (aiōnios g166)
And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Therefore, the things that I speak, just as the Father has said to me, so also do I speak.” (aiōnios g166)
