John 12
1 Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
Pak (Mi Pendma) jaamna ń sieni dana luoba, Jesu ń pundi Betani, Lasaar ń bo ye naani ke o yiedi o bi tinkpiba siiga yeni.
2 So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
Ban tieni o mi daajuojiema li kani Marta den den tieni ba mi jiema ke Lasar kaa yeni o u jedikaanu.
3 Therefore Mary took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.
Maari ń taa tolaade kɔnkɔnli yaal ya nuulu n mani ke li dunga yabi, ki wuli Jesu taana po, ki gbaani ki fiadi fiadi yeni o yudi; Tolaade nuulu ń ga ki yendi ku diegu.
4 Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
O ŋɔdkaaba siiga yendi, Siimɔn bijua Suuda Isikariyot, yua n ba ti janbi o ń maadi:
5 “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
Be n cedi ke ti kan bi kuadi li tolaade ki ga ligi dibala kobi taa ki todi a luoda a?
6 Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
O den ki maadi yeni ke wan juogi a luoda ka, ama, o den tie suudo i; wan den kubi bi ligbɔgli yeni, o den su ki jobdi ban kpiendi ya ligi yin tua o ligceli.
7 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
Ama ke Jesu maadi: ŋa wan ya kubi li tulaade, ki guuni n kupiima daali.
8 For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
I ye yeni a luoda daali kuli; ama i kan ya tundi ki ye yeni nni.
9 A large crowd therefore of the Jews learned that he was there; and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.
Bi niba boncianli ń gbadi ke Jesu ye Betani ban cua, laa tie Jesu baba po ka ke bi cua, ama bi go den bua ban la Lasaar, Jesu ń den yiedi yua bi tinkpiba siiga yeni.
10 But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
Salga yidkaaba cianba ń kali ki jagi ke ban kpa Lasaar mo.
11 because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
Kelima jufnba boncianli den yiedi ba Lasaar yiedma po, ki ji ŋua ki dugi Jesu po.
12 On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Lan fandi, ke bi niba boncianli yaaba n cua mi jaanma gbadi ke bi maadi ke Jesu caa Jerusalem,
13 they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”
Ban padi ti kaadbensɔngdi (ti biadi) ki tuogi o, ki ya yigni: “Osana” Ti kpiagdi U Tienu yeli, mi yedŋanma yua n cua O Diedo yeli po, Israyeli Badciamo!
14 Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
Jesu den baa ŋunbiga, ki jagi nani lan bo diani maama,
15 “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
Ji da jie Siyɔn bisalo; diidi, a badciamo kpendi, ki jagi ki ŋunsiaga.
16 His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.
O ŋɔdkaaba dá den ki gbadi li bona niima nni; ama Jesu ń baa ti kpiagdi, ke bi ji tiadi ke li bona den diani o ya po i, Ke li den tie ke ban tieni yeni i, o po, lan tieni ki dudi.
17 The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead was testifying about it.
Yaaba n den ye yeni o ya daali ke o den yini Lasaar li kakuli nni, ki yiedi o bi tinkpiba siiga yeni, den saagi i mɔni, ki tiendi o po kasiedi.
18 For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
Ku niwulgu den tuogi o, kelima bi den gbadi ke o tieni lan ya yaalidgu bona.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
Ke farisienba ji maadi bi ŋmiali nni: I la ke i ji kan fidi libá kuli, i gbali o; diidi mani, ŋanduna niba kuli ŋɔdi o.
20 Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.
Greknba siiga nni yaaba n den doni, ki cua ki ba pugi U Tienu mi jaanma yogu,
21 Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
Ke bi maadi Filiip, Betsayida, Galile diema nni yua, ki yedi yeni mi niidma: Canbáa, ti bua la Jesu.
22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
Filiip ń gedi ki maadi Andre bani bilie ń maadi Jesu.
23 Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Jesu ń jiini ba: «U yogu pundi ke o nisaalo bijua ń baa ti kpiagdi.
24 Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.
«I mɔmɔni i mɔmɔni, n maadi yi, dibima ya baá tinga nni, kaa kpe, mi baa ye mi baba i; ama mi ya kpe, mi ba loni boncianla.»
25 He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Yua n bua o miali ba biani li, ke yua n luni li ŋanduna ne nni baa tundi ki kubi li hali ya yogu n ki pia gbenma. (aiōnios g166)
26 If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.
Yua n tuuni n tuonli, ba ya ŋua nni i; n ya ye naani n tuonsɔnlo mo baa ye lankani i. Yua n tuuni n tuonli, Báa ba selini o.
27 “Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.
Molane n yama ji ŋmadi. N ba maadi be? ... Ba, faabi nni ya yognu ne ... Ama lani ya po i ke n pundi hali ya yognu ne.
28 Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
Báa, kpiagi a yeli! Ke nialu ñani tanpoli ki maadi: N kpiagi li, ki go ba kpiagi li.
29 Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
Ya niwulgu n bi ye likani, ki gbadi, maadi ke li tie taatantandi. Ke tianba yedi ke maleki n maadi yeni o
30 Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
Ke Jesu maadi: Mini ya po ka ke i gbadi ya nialu ne, yinba ya po i.
31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
Mɔlane, ke bi jiagi ŋanduna ne buudi; Mɔlane, bi ba tudi ki ñani ŋanduna ne naabiigki niipo.
32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
Mini, bi ya fiini nni, ki tinga ne po, ki duoni nni, n ba dadi bi niba kuli n kani.
33 But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
O den maadi yeni ki wangi wan ba kpe maama i.
34 The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
Ku niwulgu ń maadi: Ti gbadi ke yiko maadi ke Kiristo wani baa tundi ki ye hali ya yogu n ki pia gbenma; li ga ledi i, ke fini wani nan yedi ke: «Li buali ke ban fiini ki duoni o nisaalo bijua? ŋma n tie li nisaalo bijua? (aiōn g165)
35 Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
Jesu ń maadi ba: «Mi yenyenma dá ba tieni u yogu waamu i siiga. Ya cuoni mani ke mi yenyenma dá ye i po, ke li bɔnbɔnli ń da ti ludi yi. Yua n cuoni bɔnbɔnli nni ki bani wan caa naani.
36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Jesus said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.
Mi yenyenma ń dá ye yi po yeni, yin ya dugi mani mi yenyenma po, ki fidi ki ya tie mi yenyenma bila.» Jesu ń yedi lan ya bona, wan fuadi fagma, ki ban wuoni kaatiani.
37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
Hali yeni wan tieni ya yaalidgu bona boncianla bi nunbu nni, bi den ki dugi o po
38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
Ki fidi ke o sawalpualo Esayi ñɔmaama ń tieni ki dudi: «O Diedo, ŋma gbadi tin tuodi ki waani ya tunda? O Diedi nuu nan dɔgdi ŋma ya po i?»
39 For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
Yaali n pugdi, bi den kan fidi ki ya dugi kelima Esayi go maadi:
40 “He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”
«O juani bi ninbina; ki juagi bi pala ke ban da fidi ki ya nua yeni bi ninbina ki da gbadi yeni bi pala; ke ban da lebdi bi pala, min tebi ba.
41 Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
Esayi maadi lan ya bona ya yogu ke o la o kpiagdi, ki maadi o maama
42 Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they didn’t confess it, so that they wouldn’t be put out of the synagogue,
Ama, bá bi badtieba siiga boncianla den dugi o po, ama Farisienba po, bi den kan kadi ki maadi ke ban da ti beli ba ki ñani ba yiko bangma diena nni.
43 for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
Kelima bi den bua ban ya dondi bi niba ki cie yeni ban ya dondi U Tienu.
44 Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
Ki nan sua ke Jesu bo kpaandi ki maadi: «Yua dugi n po ki dugi mini ya po ka ama yua n sɔni nni ya po i.
45 He who sees me sees him who sent me.
Ke yua n nua nni nua yua n sɔni nni.
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
N cua nani yenyenma yeni ŋanduna nni ke yua n dugi n po n da ye bɔnbɔnli nni.
47 If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Nilo ya gbadi n maama, kaa taa ma ki bili o pali nni, mini ka ba jia o buudi; kelima mii cua ki ba jia ŋanduna buudi ka ama ke min faabi ŋanduna i.
48 He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
Yua n yie nni kaa ga n maama pia yua n ba jia o buudi; min yaadi ki maadi ya maama, mani n ba jia o buudi li daajuodkaali.
49 For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
Kelima, mii maadi n yeli po ka ama Báa yua n sɔni nni ya yeli po; wani o bá tuodi ki waani nni min ba maadi yaala yeni min ba pua ya sawali.
