John 13
1 Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
Sasa kabla ya sikukuu ya pasaka, kwa sababu Yesu alifahamu kuwa saa yake imefika ambayo atatoka katika dunia hii kwenda kwa baba, akiwa amewapenda watu wake ambao walikuwa duniani, aliwapenda upeo.
2 During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,
Na ibilisi alikuwa amewekwa tayari katika moyo wa Yuda Isikariote, mwana wa simoni, kumsaliti Yesu.
3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,
Yesu alifahamu kuwa baba ameweka vitu vyote katika mikono yake na kwamba ametoka kwa Mungu na alikuwa anakwenda tena kwa Mungu.
4 arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel and wrapped a towel around his waist.
Aliamka chakulani na akatandika chini vazi lake la nje. Kisha alichukua taulo na akajifunga mwenyewe.
5 Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
Kisha akatia maji katika bakuli na akaanza kuwaosha miguu wanafunzi wake na kuwafuta na taulo ambayo alijifunga yeye mwenyewe.
6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”
Akaja kwa Simoni Petro, na Petro akamwambia, “Bwana, Unataka kuniosha miguu yangu?”
7 Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”
Yesu akajibu na kumwambia, “Nifanyalo hulijui sasa, lakini utaelewa baadaye.”
8 Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.” (aiōn g165)
Petro akamwambia, “Hutaniosha miguu yangu kamwe.” Yesu akamjibu, “Ikiwa sitakuosha, hutakuwa na sehemu pamoja nami.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
Simoni Petro akamwambia, “Bwana, usinioshe miguu yangu tuu, bali pia na mikono na kichwa changu.”
10 Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”
Yesu akamwambia, “Yeyote ambaye amekwisha kuoga haitaji kuoga isipokuwa miguu yake, na amekuwa safi mwili wake wote; ninyi mmekuwa safi, lakini si nyote.”
11 For he knew him who would betray him; therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”
Kwa kuwa Yesu alijua yule atakaye msaliti; hii ndiyo sababu alisema, si nyote mmekuwa safi.”
12 So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
Wakati Yesu alipokuwa amewaosha miguu yao na akiisha chukua vazi lake na kukaa tena, aliwaambia, “Je Mnaelewa kile ambacho nimewafanyia?
13 You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.
Mnaniita mimi “Mwalimu” na Bwana hii mnasema kweli, maana ndivyo nilivyo.
14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
Ikiwa mimi Bwana na mwalimu, nimewaosha miguu yenu, ninyi pia imewapasa kuwaosha wenzenu miguu.
15 For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.
Kwa kuwa nimewapa mfano ili kwamba ninyi pia mfanye kama mimi nilivyo fanya kwenu.
16 Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither is one who is sent greater than he who sent him.
Amini, Amini, nawambia, mtumwa si mkuu kuliko bwana wake; wala yule ambaye ametumwa ni mkuu kuliko yule aliye mtuma.
17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
Ikiwa unafahamu mambo haya, umebarikiwa ukiyatenda.
18 I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’
Sisemi kuhusu ninyi nyote, kwa kuwa nawajua wale ambao nimewachagua - bali nasema haya ili kwamba maandiko yaweze kutimilizwa: 'Yeye alaye mkate wangu ameniinulia kisigino chake.'
19 From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.
Ninawambia hili sasa kabla halijatokea ili kwamba litakapotokea, muweze kuamini kuwa mimi NDIYE.
20 Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”
“Amini, amini, nawambia, anipokeaye mimi humpokea ambaye nina mtuma, na yule anipokeaye mimi humpokea yule aliye nituma mimi.”
21 When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
Wakati Yesu aliposema haya, alisumbuka rohoni, alishuhudia na kusema, “Amini, amini, nawambia kwamba mmoja wenu atanisaliti.”
22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.
Wanafunzi wake wakatazamana, wakishangaa ni kwa ajili ya nani alizungumza.
23 One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ chest.
Kulikuwa katika meza, mmoja wa wanafunzi wake ameegama kifuani mwa Yesu yule ambaye Yesu alimpenda.
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”
Simoni Petro alimuuliza mwanafunzi huyu na kusema, “Twambie ni yupi ambaye kwake anazungumza.”
25 He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ chest, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
Mwanafunzi yule aliye egama kifuani mwa Yesu na akamwambia, “Bwana, ni nani?”
26 Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
Kisha Yesu alijibu, “Ni kwake yule nitakaye chovya kipande cha mkate na kumpatia.” Hivyo alipo kuwa amechovya mkate, alimpatia Yuda mwana wa Simon Iskariote.
27 After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
Na baada ya mkate, Shetani alimuingia. Kisha Yesu akamwambia, “Kile ambacho unataka kukifanya ukifanye haraka.”
28 Now nobody at the table knew why he said this to him.
Sasa hakuna mtu katika meza alijua sababu ya Yesu kusema jambo hili kwake.
29 For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
Baadhi yao walidhani kwamba, kwa sababu Yuda alishika mfuko wa fedha, Yesu alimwambia, “Nunua vitu tunavyohitaji kwa ajili ya sikukuu,” au kwamba anapaswa kutoa kitu kwa masikini.
30 Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
Baada ya Yuda kupokea mkate, alitoka nje harak; na ilikuwa usiku.
31 When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
Wakati Yuda alipokuwa ameondoka, Yesu alisema, “Sasa mwana wa Adam ametukuzwa, na Mungu ametukuzwa katika yeye.
32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.
Mungu atamtukuza katika yeye mwenyewe, na atamtukuza haraka.
33 Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.
Watoto wadogo, niko pamoja nanyi kitambo kidogo. Mtanitafuta, na kama nilivyowambia Wayahudi, 'Niendako, hamuwezi kuja.' sasa nawambia ninyi, pia.
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.
Ninawapa amri mpya, kwamba mpendane; kama mimi nilivyo wapenda ninyi, vivyo hivyo nanyi pia imewapasa kupendana ninyi kwa ninyi.
35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Kwa ajili ya hili watu watatambua kuwa ninyi ni wanafunzi wangu, ikiwa mna upendo kwa kila mmoja na mwingine.”
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”
Simoni Petro alimwambia, “Bwana, unakwenda wapi?” Yesu akajibu, “Mahali ninapokwenda kwa sasa hutaweza kunifuata, lakini utanifuata baadaye.”
37 Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
Petro akamwambia, “Bwana, kwa nini nisikufuate hata sasa? Mimi nitayatoa maisha yangu kwa ajili yako.”
38 Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.
Yesu akajibu, “Je utayatoa maisha yako kwa ajili yangu? Amini amini nakwambia, jogoo hatawika kabla hujanikana mara tatu.”
