Yowana 12
1 Mobha shita jikanabhe ika Pashaka, a Yeshu gubhaishe ku Bhetania kubhatamaga a Lashalo bhayushiywe bhakaweje bhala.
Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.
2 Kweneko bhashinkushemelwa shalya, kwa nneyo a Malata bhatendaga kolokoya shalya. A Lashalo pubhaliji munkumbi gwa bhatemingenenje nkulya pamo na a Yeshu.
So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
3 Bhai, a Malia gubhatolile nushu lita ja mauta ga nunjila ga mmbiya yaigwinji, gubhaapekeye a Yeshu mmakongono nikwaunguta na umbo yabho. Nyumba jowe jikununjilaga mauta.
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.
4 Bhai, a Yuda Ishikaliote, bha munkumbi gwa bhaajiganywa bhabho, numbe ni bhapinga kwaatendebhuka a Yeshu, gubhashite,
Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
5 “Kwa nndi mautaga gangaushwa kwa mmbiya dinali mamiya gatatu, nipegwa bhaalaga?”
“Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
6 Bhashinkubheleketa nneyo, nngabha kuti bhatendaga kwaabhonelanga shiya bhaalaga, ikabhe pubhaliji bhaagoya mpatila gwa mmbiya, na pabha pubhaliji bhagwii, na bhatendaga jibha mmbiya mumpatila mula.
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.
7 Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhashite, “Mwaalekanje bhakongwebha, bhambashe kwa ligongo lya lyubha lya mashiko gangu.
But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
8 Bhaalaga bhapalinji na mmanganya mobha gowe, ikabheje nkabhanganga na nne mobha gowe.”
For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
9 Bhayaudi bhabhagwinji gubhapilikenenje kuti a Yeshu kubhali ku Bhetania. Bhai gubhapitengenenje kweneko, nngabha ga kwaabhona a Yeshupe ikabhe bhaabhonanje a Lashalo bhayushiywe na a Yeshu.
A large crowd therefore of the Jews learnt 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.
10 Bhakulungwanji bhaabhishila gubhalegenenje kwaabhulaga a Lashalo nneyo peyo,
But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
11 pabha kwa ligongo lya a Lashalo, Bhayaudi bhabhagwinji bhashinkwaalekanga ashikalongolele bhabhonji, nikwaakulupalila a Yeshu.
because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
12 Malabhi gakwe, likundi likulungwa lya bhandunji bhaikengenenje kushikukuu, gubhapilikenenje kuti a Yeshu mubhali mumpanda kwiya ku Yelushalemu.
On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
13 Bhai, gubhatemilenje maagala ga mitende, gubhapite kwaaposhelanga bhalijobhelanga, bhalinkutinji, “Bhainiywe a Nnungu! Na bhene bhakwiya kwa lina lya Bhakulungwa. Bhapegwe mboka bhakulungwa bha Ishilaeli.”
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!”
14 A Yeshu gubhantolile mwana jwa mbunda jumo gubhatemi pantundu jakwe, malinga shigataya Majandiko ga Ukonjelo,
Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
15 “Unajogope shilambo sha Shayuni! Nnole, a Mpalume bhenu bhanakwiya, Bhashikwela mwana jwa mbunda!”
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
16 Gene malangago bhaajiganywa bhabho bhakagamanyangaga gatendekagago, ikabheje a Yeshu bhakaweje na yuka, penepo gubhakumbushilenje kuti bhashinkujandishilwa genego, na bhandunji gubhaatendelenje nneyo peyo.
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.
17 Likundi lya bhandunji bhapalinji pamo na a Yeshu lyubha libhaayushiye a Lashalo, gubhapundilenje kwaakong'ondela.
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.
18 Kwa nneyo lugwinjili lwa bhandunji lula gubhaaposhelenje, pabha bhowe bhapilikenenje kuti a Yeshu bhashitenda shene shilangulosho.
For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
19 Bhai, Ashimapalishayo gubhabhalanjilenenje, “Nnilolanga? Tukakombola tenda shoshowe! Nnolanje bhandu bhowe bhanakwaakagulanga.”
The Pharisees therefore said amongst themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
20 Munkumbi gwa bhandunji bhaikengenenje ku Yelushalemu kukwaatindibhalila a Nnungu kushikukuusho, bhashinkupagwanga na Bhagiliki.
Now there were certain Greeks amongst those who went up to worship at the feast.
21 Bhanganyabho gubhaajendelenje a Pilipi, bha ku Bhetishaida ja ku Galilaya, gubhashitenje, “Mmakulungwa, tunapinga kwaabhona a Yeshu.”
Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
22 Bhai, a Pilipi gubhapite kwabhalanjila a Ndeleya, kungai bhowe bhaanabhili gubhapite kwaabhalanjilanga a Yeshu.
Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
23 A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Malanga ga kuywa Mwana juka Mundu gaishe!
Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
24 Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, mmbeju ja ngano jikakulilwe nnitaka niwa shijilepeshe nneyo peyo. Ikabheje jibholaga, bhai shijimele niogola iyepo yaigwinji.
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.
25 Mundu aabhushila gumi gwakwe shaguobhye, ikabheje mundu akaabhushila gumi gwakwe pa shilambolyo pano, anakuugoya mpaka pata gumi gwa pitipiti. (aiōnios g166)
He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Mundu angamulila maengo, anapinjikwa angagule, popowe pushimme nne pala, ni pushaabhe ntumishi jwangu. Mundu jojowe angamulila maengo, Atati shibhanng'ishimiye.
If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there my servant will also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honour him.
27 “Nnaino ntima gwangu gunamboteka, kanga melekete nndi? ‘Atati nndapule na gene malangaga?’ Ikabheje genega ni gung'ishile nkupinga mbitile gene malanga gano.
“Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time’? But I came to this time for this cause.
28 Atati, nnikuye lina lyenu.” Penepo lilobhe kukoposhela kunnungu gulipilikanishe lilinkuti, “Nilikushiye na kabhili shinilikuye.”
Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
29 Lugwinjili lwa bhandunji bhajimingenenje penepo gubhapilikenenje lilobhelyo, gubhashitenje kuti jishibhalula nnjai, ikabhe bhananji gubhashitenje kuti, “Bhashikunguluka naka Malaika jwa a Nnungu!”
Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
30 Ikabheje a Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Lyene lilobhelyo lyangakoposhela kwa ligongo lyangu nne, ikabhe kwa ligongo lyenu mmanganyanji.
Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
31 Nnaino gaishe malanga ga ukumulwa shilambolyo, na nkulungwa jwa pashilambolyo pano apinga nokolelwa palanga.
Now is the judgement of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
32 Na nne pushinyinulwe kunani shilambo shinautilanje bhandu bhowe kwangu nne.”
And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
33 Kwa gene malobhego bhashinkulanguya shiwo shabho pushipingabha.
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 Bhai, lugwinjili lwa bhandunji bhala gubhaajangwilenje, “Uwe shalia jetu jinakutubhalanjila kuti a Kilishitu shibhatame pitipiti. Bhai nkubheleketa bhuli, kuti Mwana juka Mundu anapinjikwa kujinulwa? Mwana juka Mundujo ni gani?” (aiōn g165)
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)
35 A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Shilangaya shatangu na mmanganyanji kwa mobha gashoko. Nndekoninji pabha nkwetenje shilangayasho nkupinga lubhindu lunanng'imananje, pabha aowa nnubhindu akakukumanya kwaaloya.
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.
36 Bhai mobha gunkwetenje shene shilangayasho, nshikulupalalilanje nkupinga mmanganje mmandunji bha shilangaya.” A Yeshu bhakamaliyeje kubheleketa genego, gubhapite kwiiya kwatalika bhanaabhonanje.
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.
37 Nkali a Yeshu bhatendile yene ilangulo yoweyo pameyo gabhonji, bhangaakulupalilanga.
But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
38 Nkupinga gatimilile malobhe ga ankulondola bha a Nnungu a Ishaya kuti, “Mmakulungwa, gani akulupalile ntenga gwetu? Na mashili ga Bhakulungwa kugamanyishe kuka gani?”
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?”
39 Pabha bhangakulupalilanga, a Ishaya bhabhelekete kabhili, Bhakulungwa bhakuti,
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “Bhashikukupila meyo gabhonji, Bhashinonopya mitima jabhonji, Bhanalolanje kwa mmeyo gabhonji, Bhanamumanyanje mmitima jabhonji, wala bhanandendebhushilanje, Na nne ngaalamiyenje.”
“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.”
41 A Ishaya bhashinkubheleketa gene malobhega pabha bhashinkuubhona ukonjelo gwa a Yeshu, gubhatashiye ngani jabho.
Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
42 Nkali nneyo ashikalongolele bhabhagwinji bha Bhayaudi gubhaakulupalilenje a Yeshu. Ikabheje kwa ligongo lya Ashimapalishayo, bhangaibhoneyanga palugwinjili nkujogopa bhanaakanwanga nshinagogi.
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,
43 Pabha kubhapingangaga kuiniywa na bhandunji kupunda kuiniywa na a Nnungu.
for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
44 A Yeshu gubhabhelekete kwa lilobhe lya utiya, “Mundu angulupalila nne, akaangulupalila nnepe, ikabhe anakwaakulupalila bhandumile bhala.
Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
45 Aamona nne anakwaabhona bhandumile bhala.
He who sees me sees him who sent me.
46 Nne shilangaya, numbe njiika pashilambolyo nkupinga bhowe bhaangulupalilanga bhanatamangane nnubhindu.
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 Mundu apilikana malobhe gangu na anagakamule, nne nganng'ukumula, pabha nangaika kuukumula shilambolyo ikabhe kukushitapula.
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.
48 Akakamula malobhe gangu akwete jwa kunng'ukumula, lilobhe limeleketelyo, shiling'ukumule lyubha lya mpelo.
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.
49 Nne nangabheleketa kwa mashili gangu namwene, ikabhe Atati bhandumile bhala, bhashinajila ya bheleketa na jiganya.
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.
