Johani 11
1 Zvino mumwe murume ainzi Razaro akanga achirwara. Aibva kuBhetani, musha waMaria naMarita mukoma wake.
BUT a certain man was sick, Loozar, of the village Bethania: (he was) the brother of Mariam and of Martha.
2 Maria uyu, ane hanzvadzi yake Razaro akanga avete achirwara, ndiye uya akadururira mafuta anonhuhwira pana Ishe uye akapukuta tsoka dzake nebvudzi rake.
It was that Mariam who anointed with balsam the feet of Jeshu, and wiped (them) with her hair, whose brother this Loozar was who was sick.
3 Saka hanzvadzi dzake dzakatuma shoko kuna Jesu, dzikati, “Ishe, uya wamunoda ari kurwara.”
And his two sisters sent unto Jeshu, saying, Our Lord, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4 Akati anzwa izvozvo, Jesu akati, “Kurwara uku hakumusvitsi kurufu. Kwete, kune chokuita nokukudzwa kwaMwari kuitira kuti Mwanakomana waMwari akudzwe kubudikidza naizvozvo.”
But Jeshu said, This sickness is not of death, but for the glory of Aloha, that the Son of Aloha may be glorified on account of it.
5 Jesu aida Marita, nomununʼuna wake uye naRazaro.
But Jeshu loved Martha and Mariam and Loozar.
6 Asi paakanzwa kuti Razaro akanga achirwara, akagara paakanga ari kwamamwe mazuva maviri.
And when he heard that he was sick, he remained in the place where he was two days.
7 Ipapo akati kuvadzidzi vake, “Ngatidzokerei kuJudhea.”
And afterwards he saith to his disciples, Come, we will go again into Jihud.
8 Vakati kwaari, “Asika Rabhi, nguva pfupi ichangopfuura, vaJudha vakanga vachiedza kukutakai namabwe, zvino munoda kudzokerazve ikoko here?”
His disciples say to him, Raban, now have the Jihudoyee sought to stone thee; and again goest thou thither?
9 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ko, nguva hadzizi gumi nembiri pazuva here? Munhu anofamba masikati haagumburwi, nokuti anoona nechiedza chenyika ino.
Jeshu saith to them, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world;
10 Anogumburwa paanenge achifamba usiku, nokuti haana chiedza.”
but if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because no light is in him.
11 Akati ataura izvi, akaenderera mberi achiti kwavari, “Shamwari yedu Razaro avata; asi ndiri kuenda ikoko kunomumutsa.”
These spake Jeshu; and afterwards he said to them, Loozar our friend reposeth; but I go to awake him.
12 Vadzidzi vake vakapindura vakati, “Ishe, kana akavata, achaita zviri nani.”
His disciples say to him, Our Lord, if he sleep he is healed.
13 Jesu akanga achitaura nezvorufu rwake, asi vadzidzi vake vakafunga kuti akanga achireva kuvata hope chaidzo.
But Jeshu spake concerning his death; and they thought that concerning the repose of sleep he spake.
14 Saka ipapo akavataurira pachena akati, “Razaro afa,
Then said Jeshu to them explicatively, Loozar is dead.
15 uye nokuda kwenyu, ndinofara nokuti ndakanga ndisiko, kuitira kuti imi mugotenda. Asi ngatichiendai kwaari.”
And I am glad I was not there for your sakes, that you may believe. But let us walk thither.
16 Ipapo Tomasi Dhidhimo akati kuvadzidzi vose, “Ngatiendei, kuti tinofawo naye.”
Thoma, who is called the Twin, saith to his fellow-disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17 Jesu paakasvika akawana Razaro anguva ava muguva kwamazuva mana.
And Jeshu came to Bethania, and found that he had been four days in the house of burial.
18 Bhetani yaiva makiromita angangosvika matatu kubva muJerusarema,
Now Bethania was nigh to Urishlem, being a distance from it of about fifteen stadia.
19 uye vaJudha vazhinji vakanga vauya kuna Marita naMaria kuti vazovanyaradza pakurasikirwa kwavo nehanzvadzi yavo.
And many of the Jihudoyee had come to Martha and Mariam, that they might speak to their hearts concerning their brother.
20 Marita akati anzwa kuti Jesu auya, akabuda kundomuchingamidza, asi Maria akasara mumba.
Then Martha, when she heard that Jeshu had come, went forth to meet him; but Mariam sat in the house.
21 Marita akati kuna Jesu, “Ishe, dai maiva pano, hanzvadzi yangu ingadai isina kufa.
And Martha said to Jeshu, My Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 Asi ndinoziva kuti kunyange izvozvi Mwari achakupai zvose zvamuchakumbira.”
But even now know I that whatsoever thou wilt ask of Aloha, he giveth to thee.
23 Jesu akati kwaari, “Hanzvadzi yako ichamukazve.”
Jeshu saith to her, Thy brother ariseth.
24 Marita akati, “Ndinoziva kuti achamukazve pakumuka kwezuva rokupedzisira.”
Martha saith to him, I know that he ariseth in the resurrection at the last day.
25 Jesu akati kwaari, “Ndini kumuka noupenyu. Uyo anotenda kwandiri achararama, kunyange dai akafa;
Jeshu saith to her, I am the Resurrection and the Life; and (he) who believeth in me, although he will die, shall live.
And every one who liveth and believeth in me, for ever shall not die. Believest thou this? (aiōn g165)
27 Iye akati, “Hongu, Ishe, ndinotenda kuti ndimi Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari, uyo akanzi achauya panyika.”
She saith to him, Yes, my Lord; I believe that thou art the Meshicha, the Son of Aloha, who cometh into the world.
28 Akati ataura izvozvo, akadzokera akandodana parutivi mununʼuna wake Maria. Akati, “Mudzidzisi ari pano, uye ari kukubvunza.”
And when she had said these, she went, called Mariam her sister in secret, and said to her, Our Master hath come, and calleth for thee.
29 Maria akati anzwa izvozvo, akasimuka nokukurumidza akaenda kwaari.
When Mariam heard, she arose quickly, and came to him.
30 Zvino Jesu akanga asati apinda mumusha, asi akanga achiri panzvimbo paya paakanga asangana naMarita.
But Jeshu himself had not yet come into the village, but was in that place where Martha met him.
31 VaJudha vakanga vari mumba naMaria, vachimunyaradza, vakati vachiona kuti akurumidza sei kusimuka achibuda kunze, vakamutevera, vachifunga kuti zvimwe akanga oenda kuguva kuti andochema ikoko.
But those Jihudoyee who were also with her in the house to console her, when they saw that Mariam rose up hastily to go forth, went themselves after her; for they thought that to the sepulchre she went to weep.
32 Maria akati asvika panzvimbo pakanga pana Jesu uye akamuona, akawira patsoka dzake akati, “Ishe, dai manga muri pano, hanzvadzi yangu ingadai isina kufa.”
But she, Mariam, when she was come where Jeshu was, and saw him, fell down at his feet, saying, If thou hadst been here, my Lord, my brother had not died.
33 Jesu akati achimuona achichema, uye vaJudha vakanga vauya naye vachichemawo, akabatwa neshungu kwazvo mumweya make uye akatambudzika.
But Jeshu, when he saw her weeping, and those Jihudoyee who came with her weeping, he was moved in his spirit, and was troubled,
34 Akavabvunza akati, “Mamuradzika kupiko?” Vakati kwaari, “Uyai muone, Ishe.”
and said, Where have you laid him? And they said to him, Our Lord, come and see.
35 Jesu akachema.
And the tears of Jeshu came.
36 Ipapo vaJudha vakati, “Onai kuti aimuda sei!”
And the Jihudoyee said, See how he loved him!
37 Asi vamwe vavo vakati, “Ko, uyu akasvinudza bofu akanga asingagoni here kuita kuti munhu uyu arege kufa?”
But some of them said, Could not this who opened the eyes of that blind have caused also that this should not have died?
38 Jesu, akabatwa neshungu kwazvo, akasvika paguva. Rakanga riri bako rine dombo rakanga rakaradzikwa rakachinjika mukova waro.
Jeshu, groaning within himself, came to the house of burial; and that house of burial was a cave, and a stone was laid at the gate of it.
39 Akati, “Bvisai ibwe.” Marita, hanzvadzi yomurume akanga afa akati, “Asika, Ishe, pari zvino ava kunhuhwa, nokuti atova mazuva mana arimo.”
And Jeshu said, Take up this stone. Martha, the sister of him (who was) dead, saith to him, My Lord, he now stinketh; for four days are to him.
40 Ipapo Jesu akati, “Ko, handina kukuudza here kuti kana ukatenda, uchaona kubwinya kwaMwari?”
Jeshu said to her, Said I not to thee, that if thou wilt believe, thou shalt see the glory of Aloha?
41 Saka vakabvisa ibwe. Ipapo Jesu akatarisa kudenga akati, “Baba, ndinokuvongai nokuti mandinzwa.
And they took up the stone. And Jeshu lifted his eye upward, and said, Father, I give thanks to thee that thou hast heard me;
42 Ndinozviziva kuti munogara muchindinzwa, asi ndareva izvi nokuda kwavanhu vamire pano, kuti vatende kuti imi makandituma.”
and I know that at all times thou hearest me: yet, because of this assembly which standeth, I say these (words), that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 Akati areva izvozvo, Jesu akadanidzira nenzwi guru akati, “Razaro, buda!”
And when he had said these (words), he cried with a high voice, Loozar, come without!
44 Murume akanga afa uya akabuda, maoko ake namakumbo zvakapombwa nemicheka, uye chiso chake chakafukidzwa nomucheka. Jesu akati kwavari, “Mubvisei nguo dzomuguva mumurege aende.”
And he, the dead, came forth, his hands and his feet being bound with bandages, and his face in a linen cloth. Jeshu saith to them, Release him, and let (him) go.
45 Naizvozvo vazhinji vavaJudha vakanga vauya kuzoshanyira Maria, uye vaona zvakanga zvaitwa naJesu, vakatenda kwaari.
And many of the Jihudoyee who came with Mariam, when they saw the thing which Jeshu did, believed on him.
46 Asi vamwe vavo vakaenda kuvaFarisi vakavaudza zvakanga zvaitwa naJesu.
And some of them went to the Pharishee, and told them every thing that Jeshu had done.
47 Ipapo vaprista vakuru navaFarisi vakadana musangano weDare Guru ravaJudha. Vakati, “Tiri kuiteiko? Hounoka murume ari kuita zviratidzo zvesimba zvizhinji.
AND the chief priests and Pharishee assembled, and said, What shall we do? because this man doeth many signs;
48 Kana tikamurega achienderera mberi saizvozvi, munhu wose achatenda kwaari, uye vaRoma vachauya vakatitorera zvose nzvimbo yedu nenyika yedu.”
and if we leave him thus, all men will believe on him, and the Rumoyee, coming, take away our country and our people.
49 Ipapo mumwe wavo ainzi Kayafasi, akanga ari muprista mukuru wegore iroro akataura achiti, “Hamuna zvamunoziva imi!
But one of them, whose name was Kaiapha, was the high priest of that year; and he said to them, You know not any thing,
50 Hamuzivi here kuti zviri nani kwamuri kuti munhu mumwe afire vanhu pano kuti rudzi rwose ruparare.”
nor reason that it is expedient for us that one man die for the people, and not all the people perish.
51 Haana kungotaura izvi pachake, asi sezvaakanga ari muprista mukuru wegore iroro, akaprofita kuti Jesu aizofira rudzi rwavaJudha,
But this from himself he spake not, but because he was high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jeshu should die for the people,
52 uye rusati rwuri rudzi irworwo bedzi asiwo vana vaMwari vakapararira, kuti avaunganidze agovaita vamwe.
and not only for (that) people, but also that the children of Aloha who are dispersed he should gather into one.
53 Saka kubva pazuva iroro zvichienda mberi, vakarangana kumuuraya.
And from that day they determined to kill him.
54 Naizvozvo Jesu haana kuzofamba pachena pakati pavaJudha. Asi akabva akaenda kudunhu raiva pedyo nerenje, kumusha wainzi Efuremu, kwaakandogara navadzidzi vake.
But Jeshu himself walked not openly among the Jihudoyee, but went from thence to the region near the wilderness, to a region which was called Ephrem, and there conversed with his disciples.
55 Pasika yavaJudha yakati yoswedera, vazhinji vaibva munyika iyo vakakwidza kuJerusarema kuti vandozvinatsa Pasika isati yasvika.
NOW the petscha of the Jihudoyee drew nigh; and many went up from the country places to Urishlem before the festival, to purify themselves.
56 Vakaramba vachitsvaka Jesu, uye pavakanga vamire mutemberi, vakabvunzana vakati, “Munofungeiko? Haasi kuzouya kumutambo here?”
And they sought for Jeshu, and said one to another in the temple, What think you, that he cometh to the feast?
57 Asi vaprista vakuru navaFarisi vakanga varayira kuti kana paine anenge aziva kuna Jesu, aifanira kuvazivisa kuitira kuti vagomusunga.
But the chief priests and Pharishee had commanded that if any man knew where (he was), he should declare it to them, as that they might apprehend him.
