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.
Siku sita kabla ya Pasaka, Yesu kayenda Bethani kwa abile Lazaro, ywembe ywabile atikumfufua boka mu kiwo.
2 So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
Bai kabamwandalia chakulya cha kitamwinyo, ni Martha atikuntumikya, wakati woo Lazaro abile yumo wa balo batamile mu'chakulya pamope ni Yesu.
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.
Boka po Mariamu atitola rati ya manukato gapangitwe kwa nardo safi, yabile ya thamani ngolo, atikumpaka Yesu mumagolo, ni kunputa magolo kwa nywili yake; nyumba yoti yatinungya harufu ya galo manukato.
4 Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
Yuda Iskariote, yumo ywa balo anapunzi bake, ywabile nga ywaamsaliti Yesu, kabaya,
5 “Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
“Kwa mwanja namani manukato aga gapemewa kwa dinari mia tatu ni kuapeya maskini?”
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.
Ni ywembe ywabaya ago, nga kwa kubahurumia kwaa maskini, ila kwa sababu abile mwii: ywembe nga ywakamwile mpuko wa mbanje ni abile atitola baadhi ya ibekwile moo kwa ajili yake mwene.
7 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
Yesu abayite, “Nleke abeke chaabile nacho kwa ajili ya lisoba lya masiko yango.
8 For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me.”
Maskini mwabile nabo masoba yoti; lakini mwatama kwaa ni nenga masoba yoti.”
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.
Bai kipenga kikolo sa ayahudi bayowine kuwa Yesu abile kwoo, nabo baisile, kwa ajili ya Yesu, ili bamlole ni Lazaro ywamfufue Yesu kuoma mu'kiwo.
10 But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
Na akolo wa Makuhani kabapanga shauri ili wamukage Lazaro;
11 because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
mana kwa ajili yake banyansima mu'uyahudi batiyenda na kumwaminiya Yesu.
12 On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Na lisoba lya ibele kipenga kikolo sa bandu saisile mu'sikukuu. Kabaypwine kuwa Yesu andaisa Yerusalemu,
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!”
Kabatola matawi ya nkowa wa ntende ni kuoma panja kuyenda kumlaki ni kukombwa lilobe, “Hosana! Atibarikiwa ywembe ywaisa kwa lina lya Ngwana, Mpwalume wa Israeli.”
14 Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
Yesu ampatike mwana mponda ni kumpanda: kati yaiandikilwe,
15 “Do not be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
“Kana uyogope, binti Sayuni; linga. Mpwalume bako andaisa, atikumpanda mwana mbonda.”
16 His disciples did not 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.
Anapunzi bake baelewite kwaa makowe aga apo kwanza; lakini Yesu paatukuzwe, nga kabakombokya ya kuwa makowe aga gatiandikilwa ywembe na ya kuwa bapangite makowe aga kwake.
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.
Bai lelo likundi lya bandu babile pamope ni Yesu wakati paakemile Lazaro kuoma mu'likaburi, kabashuhudia kwa wenge.
18 For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
Na yabile kwa sababu yee kuwa likundi lya bandu baisile kumlaki kwa sababu bayowine kuwa aipangite ishara yee.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
Mafarisayo kababakiyana bene kwa bene, “Linga nambeambe muweza kwaa kupanga lolote; linga ulimwengu uyendike kwake.”
20 Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.
Nambeambe baadhi ya Ayunani babile nkati ya balo babile batiyenda ku'sikukuu.
21 Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
Aba kabamwendea Filipo, ywabile aboka Bethsaida ya Galilaya, kabanloba bakibaya, “Ngwana, twenga twatamaniya kumwona Yesu.”
22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
Filipo kayenda kummakiya Andrea; Andrea ni Filipo kabayenda kummakiya Yesu.
23 Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Yesu kaayangwa ni kubaya, “Saa iikite kwa ajili ya mwana wa Adamu kutukuzwa.
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.
Amini, amini, naabakiya, chembe ya ngano mana itei itomboka kwaa mu'nnema na waa, utama nyonyonyoo kichake; ila mana itiwaa, ipambika matunda ganyansima.
25 He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it for consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
Ywembe ywaupenda uhai wake alowa kuupoteza; ila ywembe ywauchukyanga uhai wake mu'ulimwengu woo alowa kuusalimisha hata ukoto wange yomoka. (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.
Mundu yoyote ywanitumikiya nenga, na anikengame, nenga panibile, nga na mmanda wango apalikwa kuwa. Mundu yeyote ywanitumikiya, Tate alowa kumweshimu.
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.
Nambeambe roho yango itifadhaika; nenga nabaya kinamani?'Tate unilopwe mu'saa yee?' Lakini ni kwa kusudi lee niikite saa yee.
28 Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
Tate, ulitukuze lina lyako,” Boka po lilobe liisile kuboka kumaunde no baya, “Natikulitukuza na nenga natikulitukuza kae.”
29 Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
Bai bandu bayemite papipi ni ywembe kabayowa ni kubaya kuwa kwabile ni ngurumo. Wenge watibaya, “Malaika atilongela na ywembe.”
30 Jesus answered, “This voice has not come for my sake, but for your sakes.
Yesu kaayangwa no baya, “Lilobe lee lyaisilee kwaa kwa ajili yango, ila kwa ajili yinu.
31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
Nambeambe hukumu ya ulimwengu woo ibile: Nambeambe nkolo wa ulimwengu woo alowa tekwanilwa panja.
32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
Na nenga mana niinuliwe nnani ya nnema, nalowa kuwavuta woti kwango.”
33 But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
Atibaya nyoo akibabonekeya aina ya kiwo alowa waa.
34 The multitude answered him, "We have heard from of the law that the Christ remains for this age (aiōn g165). How do you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up?' Who is this Son of Man?"
Bandu kabanyangwa, “Twenga tuyowine mu'saliya ya kuwa Kristo alowa tama hata milele. Ni wenga wabaya kinamani, “Mwana wa Adamu lazima ainulilwe kunani? Ayoo mwana wa Adamu ywa nyai?” (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 does not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
Bai Yesu kaamakiya, “Bweya ibile pamope ni mwenga muda nchunu. Muyendeli maadamu mubile ni bweya, ili libendo kana liise kwaa kubaweza. Ywembe ywayenda mu'libendo atangite kwaa paaayenda.
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.
Mwabile mu'bweya, muiamini bweya yee ili mpate kuwa bana ba bweya.” Yesu kaabaya aga na boka poo kayenda kuificha kna bamweni.
37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him,
Ingawa Yesu apangite ishara zanyansima namna yee nnonge yabe, bado bamwaminiye kwaa.
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?”
Ili litimye neno lya nabii Isaya, abayite: “Ngwana, ywa nyai ywa sadiki habari yitu? Ni luboko lwa Ngwana atifunulilwa nyai?”
39 For this cause they could not believe, for Isaiah said again:
Nga sababu bembe baaminiye kwaa, maana Isaya abayite kae,
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.”
“Atikwapanga ipofu mu minyo yabe, na aipangite mioyo yabe migumu, ili bamweni kwaa mu'minyo yabe ni kuyatanga kwa mioyo yabe, ni kabalopolelwa ni nenga kuwaponya.”
41 Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
Isaya abayite maneno ago kwa kuwa aubweni utukufu wa Yesu ni atilongela habari zake.
42 Nevertheless, even many of the rulers believed in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue,
Lakini hata akolo banansima batikumwamini Yesu; ila kwa sababu ya Mafarisayo, kabakiri kwaa ili kana batengwe na lisinagogi.
43 for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
Bapendike sifa za bandu kuliko sifa zibokite kwa Nnongo
44 Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
Yesu kakombwa lilobe no baya, “Ywembe ywaaniminiye nenga, aniaminiye kwaa nenga kichangu ila ni ywembe ywanitumile nenga.
45 He who sees me sees him who sent me.
ni ywembe ywaanibona nenga ambona ni ywembe ywaanitumile.
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
Nenga niisile kati bweya ya ulimwengu ila kila mundu ywaniaminiye nenga atame kwaa mu'libendo.
47 If anyone listens to my sayings and does not believe, I do not judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Mana itei mundu ywoywoti ywaayowine maneno yango lakini kana agakamwe, nenga nalowa kumhukumu; mana niisile kwaa kuhukumu ulimwengu ila kuulopwa ulimwengu.
48 He who rejects me, and does not receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
Yeyote ywanipala kwaa nenga kana ayakubali maneno yango, abile ni ywamuhukumu: neno lee nalibayite nga lalowa kumhukumu lisoba lya mwisho.
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.
Mana nenga nabaya kwaa kwa nafsi yango kae. Ila ni Tate ywanipeleki, ywembe mwene ywanitumile kugabaya yanilongela.
