Yohana 13
1 Isalezi seliseele eshikulukulu ye pasaka, afuatanaje oYesu amenye aje esala ya efishile eyaje aifuma munsi omo abhale hwa daada, endwemo abhagene abhantu bhakwe bhabhali munsi, abhagene oupeo.
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 Osetano abhehwelwe haani humwoyo gwa Yuda Iskariote, omwana wa simoni, ahushitushile oYesu.
The devil had already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon;
3 O Yesu amenye aje odaada abheshele evintu humakhono gakwe naje afumile hwa Ngolobhe nantele ali abhala hwa Ngolobhe.
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 Abhoshele pashalye na ahalile pansi omwenda gwa honze. Ahejile itaulo ahwifunjile yoyo.
rose from his place, and, taking off his upper garments, tied a towel around his waist.
5 Nkahaponya amenze mumbakuri na wanda abhozye amagaga abhanafunzi bhakwe na bhapugute ni taulo lya hwifunjile yoyo.
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 around him.
6 Ahenza hwa Petro, na oPetro ahabhozya, “Gosi, uhwanza anazye amagaga gane?”
When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said, “You, Master! Are you going to wash my feet?”
7 O Yesu ayanga na hubhozye, “Lyebhomba solimenye esalezi ila eshi obhahwelewe pamande.”
“You do not understand now what I am doing,” replied Jesus, “but you will learn by and by.”
8 O Petro abhozya, “Sobhanozye amagaga gane na mwaha.” O Yesu ajile, “Nkashe sembahumwezye sobhabhe ne sehemu pandwemo nane.” (aiōn g165)
“You will never wash my feet!” exclaimed Peter. “Unless I wash you,” answered Jesus, “you have nothing in common with me.” (aiōn g165)
9 O Simoni Petro abhozya, “Gosi, onganjenozye amagaga gane wene, ila namakhono ni twe lyane.”
“Then, Master, not my feet only,” exclaimed Simon Peter, “but also my hands and my head.”
10 O Yesu abhozya, “Wawonti wayojile sahwanziwa ahwoje ila amagaga gakwe, nahuje mwinza obele gwakwe gwonti; amwe muli bhinza, ila se mwenti.”
“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 O Yesu amenye ola wanzahugalushile; ndio maana ajile, semwenti mli bhinza.”
For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said ‘You are not all clean.’
12 O Yesu lwali abhozizye amagaga gabho na wega omwenda gwakwe na khale nantele, abhabhozya, “Aje Muhwelewa hale hembabhombela?
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 Mukwizya ane “Mwalimu” nantele myiga Gosi ene yoli, afuatanaje endi shesho.
“You yourselves call me ‘the teacher’ and ‘the Master’, and you are right, for I am both.
14 Nkashe ane ne Gosi ne mwalimu, embozizye amagaga genyu, amwe namwe ehwanziwa abhozye amwenyu amagaga.
If I, then – ‘the Master’ and ‘the teacher’ – have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet;
15 Embapiye ofwana aje amwe mubhombe nanshi ane zyanabhombile hulimwe.
for I have given you an example, so that you may do just as I have done to you.
16 Etesheli, Etesheli, embabhozya, oboyio segosi ashile ogosi wakwe; wala yule ambaye ametumwa ni mkuu kuliko yule aliye mtuma.
In truth I tell you, a servant is not greater than their master, neither is a messenger greater than the one who sends them.
17 Nkashe ozimenye enongwa ezi osaiwaje nkobhazibhombe.
Now that you know these things, happy are you if you do them.
18 Seyanga aje amwe mwenti, afuatanaje embamenye bhala bhembachaguye - eyanga ezi ili aje amazu gawezye akamilishe: 'Omwene walya ibumunda lyane ambasesezye ikhaata lyakwe.'
I am not speaking about all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but this is in fulfillment of the words of scripture – ‘He that is eating my bread has lifted his heel against me.’
19 Embabhozya izii esalezi shalilisele afume aje nkalyaifumila, mwawezye ahweteshele aje ane NENE.
For the future I will tell you of things before they take place, so that, when they take place, you may believe that I am what I am.
20 “Etesheli, etesheli, embabhozya, wamposhela ane ahuposhela yayola wantumile mimi.”
In truth I tell you, the one who receives anyone that I send receives me; and the person who receives me receives him who sent me.”
21 O Yesu lwa yangaga ega, ayanzihwe hu mwoyo, ahakikisizye na yanje, “Etesheli, etesheli, embabhozya aje omo wenyu aingaluha.”
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 Abhanafunzi bhakwe bha henyanya, bhahuswiga aje wenu wahuyanga.
The disciples looked at one another, wondering whom he meant.
23 Hwali ne meza, omo we bhanafunzi bhakwe ahagamiye musifubha mwa Yesu ola oYesu wagene.
Next to Jesus, in the place on his right hand, was one of his disciples, whom he loved.
24 O Simoni oPetro abhozezye omwanafunzi ono na huje, “Tibho wenu wahuyanga.”
So Simon Peter made signs to that disciple, and whispered, “Tell me who it is that he means.”
25 Omwanafunzi ola wahagamiye mshifubha mwa Yesu na hubhozye, “Gosi, yonanu?”
Being in this position, that disciple leant back on Jesus’ shoulder, and asked him, “Who is it, Master?”
26 O Yesu ajile, “Wemba tobhezye ishipande shi bumunda na hhupele.” Shesho nali atobhezezye ibumunda, apiye oYuda omwana wa Simoni Iskariote.
“It is the one,” answered Jesus, “to whom I will 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 Baada yi bumunda, Osetano amwinyiye. O Yesu ahabhozya, “Haala howanza abhombe habhombe nanali.”
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 Nomo omuntu pameza wamenye emaana ya Yesu ayanje enongwa ezi hwa mwahale.
But no one at the table understood why he said this to Judas.
29 Bhamo bhasebhele aje afuatanaje oYuda ekhete ifuko lye mpeya, oYesu abhozya, “Kala evintu vyatihwanza vye shikulukulu,” au aje ahwanziwa afumye evintu hwa peena.
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 O Yuda na hejelela ibumunda, ahafuma honze nanali; hwali sikuu.
After taking the piece of bread, Judas went out immediately; and it was night.
31 O Yuda lwali asogoye, oYesu ayanjile, “Eshi omwana wa Adamu amwamihwe, no Ngolobhe amwamihwe hwa mwehale.
When Judas had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been exalted, and God has been exalted through him;
32 Ongolobhe anzahumwamishe hwa mwene yoyo, na anza humwamishe nanali.
and God will exalt him with himself – yes, he will exalt him forthwith.
33 Bhana mwadodo, ehwendi pamo namwe omuda dodo. Mubhananze, nkashe shanabhabhozizye Ayahudi, 'Hwembala, semuwezizye ahwenze.' esalaze embabhozya amwe, nantele.
My children, I am to be with you but a little while longer. You will look for me; and what I said to the people – ‘You cannot come where I am going’ – I now say to you.
34 Embapiye endizyo empya, aje mganane nanshi ane shehabhagene amwe, shesho shesho namwe ehwanziwa aganane mwemwe hu mwemwe.
I give you a new commandment – love one another; love one another as I have loved you.
35 Afuatanaje neli awantu bhanzamanye aje amwe muli bhanafunzi bhane, nkashe muli no lugano shila omo no wamwabho.”
It is by this that everyone will recognize you as my disciples – by your loving one another.”
36 O Simoni Petro abhozezye, “Gosi, ubhala hwii?” O Yesu ayanga, “Apantu pe haibhala esalezi sobhawezye anfuate, ila obhananze pamande.
“Where are you going, Master?” asked Peter. “I am going where you cannot now follow me,” answered Jesus, “but you will follow me later.”
37 O Petro abhozya, “Gosi, yenu ensafuate hata salezi? Ane embafumwe olwizyo lyane huliwe.”
“Why cannot I follow you now, Master?” asked Peter. “I will lay down my life for you.”
38 O Yesu ajile, “Aje obhafumwe olwizyo shauli ya huline? Etesheli etesheli ehubhozya, ehanda sebhakuje bila haana mara hatatu.”
“Will you lay down your life for me?” replied Jesus. “In truth I tell you, the cock will not crow until you have disowned me three times.
