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.
Lätnak Pawi a phanak vai a mhnüp khyuk üng, thi se a mthawh be Lazaruha venak, Bethanih mlüha Jesuh pha lawki.
2 So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him.
Acuia Jesuha mü ei vai buh pyangnaka Matah naw jah kpüiki. Acuia Lazaruh pi Jesuh am atänga ngaw hngaki.
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.
Marih naw aktäa a phu küikia natuh ksi ng’ui liter uma cäpcäp lawpüi lü, Jesuha khaw jah buiki naw a lusam am a xuh pet. Acuna ksi ng’ui cun im k’um naküt üng ng'uiki.
4 Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said,
Acunsepi, axüisaw he üngka mat, Judah Iskarot, Jesuh phyahei khai naw,
5 “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”
“Hina ksi ng’ui hin, ise ngui phya kthuma jawi lü, msih mpyaki he üng am a jah pet ni?” a ti.
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.
Msih mpyaki he a jah mpyeneia phäh acukba a pyen am ni, khyang mpyukeia a kyaa thea, nguiip cüm lü, a k’uma ngui a lawhei khawia phäha kyaki.
7 But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.
Jesuh naw, “Hawih ua, ka ng’utnak mhnüpa phäh pawh se.
8 For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”
“Msih mpyaki he cun aläa nami hlawnga awmki he ni. Kei cun aläa nami hlawnga ka ve khaia am kya” a ti.
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.
Jesuh Bethaniha veki ti Judahe naw ksing u lü, ami lawsih. Jesuh däk lawsihkie am ni, thihnak üngka naw a mthawh be Lazaruh pi ami hmuh hlüa phäha kyaki.
10 But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also,
Ktaiyü ngvaie naw Lazaruh pi ami hnim vaia cengkie;
11 because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.
Lazaruha phäha Judah khyang khawhah naw jah hawih u lü, Jesuh ami juma phäha kyaki.
12 On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Angawi üng, Lätnak Pawia lawkia khyangpänu naw Jesuh Jerusalema law hlüki ti ami ksing üng,
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!”
nghleng hnahe jah kcüngei lü do khaia cit u lü, “Hosana, Bawipa ngming üng lawki Pamhnam naw dawkyanak pe se!” Pamhnam naw Isarelea sangpuxang dawkyanak pe se” ti lü ngpyangkie.
14 Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written,
Jesuh naw sanghngaksaü hmu lü, acuna khana ngcumki. Cangcim üng ang’yuka mäiha,
15 “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”
“Zion mlüh aw, käh kyüheia; Tenga sanghngaksaüca üng cum lü, na sangpuxang law ve.”
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.
Asüa ta axüisaw he naw am ksing u. Acunsepi Jesuh mhlünmtai a ni üng, Jesuha mawng cangcim naw a pyen ja ania phäh ahikba ami bilawhe ti cun süm law bekie.
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.
Lazaruh, ng’utnak üngka naw a khü be, thihnak üngka a mthawh be üng, a peia awmki hea khyange naw pi a mawngma pyenkie.
18 For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign.
Acunakyase, khyange naw pi a na do u lü ümhlamkie. Acukba müncanksee jah pawhki ni ti ngjakie.
19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”
Pharisee amimät naw, “Teng u, i am mi pawh khawhki, khawmdek avan naw a hnu läk päng ve” ami ti.
20 Now there were certain Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.
Pawia Pamhnam hjawkhah khaia Jerusalem mlüha jeng citkie üng Krike avang pi cit hngakie.
21 Therefore, these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
Acun he cun Philipa (Kalile hne Bethsaida mlüha ka kyaki) veia law u lü, “Saja aw, Jesuh kami hmu hlüki” ti lü ami nghuinak.
22 Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus.
Philip naw Andru mtheh law se ani nghngih naw Jesuh üng ani va mtheh.
23 Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Jesuh naw jah msang lü, “Khyanga Capa a hlüngtainak vai akcün pha law ve.
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.
“Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki: cangmci mdek üng am kya lü am a thih üng mäei khawiki. A thih üng va khawhaha ngtheipai law be khawiki.
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)
“A xünsak mcehnaki naküt naw a xünsak mkhyüh khai. Hina khawmdek khana a xünsak hnengki naw angsäia xünnak yah khai. (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.
“Ka khut pawh hlüki naküt naw na läk law se; ka khut pawhki cun ka venaka ve hnga khai. Ka khut pawhkia khyang cun Pa naw mhlünmtai khai.
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.
“Atuh hin ka mlung khuikha ve. I ka pyen khai ni? ‘Ka Pa aw, hina kcün hin ka khana käh kpha lawa, ka ti khai aw? Iakyasepi, ahina khuikhatnak khamei khaia ni, ka law.
28 Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.”
“Ka Pa aw, na ngming hlüngtai se” a ti. Acunüng, “Ka mhlünmtai pängki, ka mhlünmtai betü khai” tia kthai khankhaw üngka naw a ngjak.
29 Therefore the multitude who stood by and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.”
A peia ngdüikia khyange naw ngja u lü, “Khaw nghmümki ni,” ti u se, avang naw, “Khankhawngsä naw ngthuhei püiki ni,” ami ti.
30 Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes.
Jesuh naw, “Acuna kthai cun ka phäha ngthang lawkia am ni, nangmia phäh ni.
31 Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out.
“Tukbäih hina khawmdek ngthumkhyahnaka kcüna kyaki. Tukbäih hina khawmdek ukia sangpuxang cun ksäta kya khai.
32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
“Kei, mdek üngka naw khana a na taih law üng, khyang naküt ka veia ka jah kaih khai” a ti.
33 But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
Acuna ngthu cun a thih vai ksingnak vaia a pyena kyaki.
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)
Khyang he naw, “Mesijah cun angdäia ve khai ti mi Thum üng kami hmuki. Nang naw, ‘Khyanga Capa mdek üngka naw khana taiha kya khai’ na ti hin, i ni? Acuna Khyanga Capa cun u ni?” ti u lü, ami msang. (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.
Jesuh naw, “Akvai asäng nami hlawnga ve ham ve. Akvai a ve k’um üng cit hü ua, am ani üng ta nghmüp naw ning jah kpha law khai ni. Nghmüp üng cit hüki naw a cehnak am ksingei khawi.
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.
“Akvai a ve ham üng akvai jumei ua, akvaia canaa nami kya khai” a ti. Acun a pyen päng ja Jesuh cit lü, am ami hmuhnak vaia ngthupeiki.
37 But though he had done so many signs before them, yet they didn’t believe in him,
Ami maa müncanksee khawkän pawh sepi Jesuh am jum u;
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?”
Sahma Hesajah naw a na pyen: “Bawipa aw, kami pyena ngthu u naw jumki ni? Bawipa naw ua veia a johit mdanki ni?” tia ngthua kümnak vaia kyaki.
39 For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
Acuna thea am jum u se, sahma Hesajah naw pyen lü,
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.”
“Pamhnam naw ami mik a jah müsak, ami mlung jah nghlangsak se, acunüng ami mik naw am hmuh thei, ami lu pi cing se, ka jah mdaw be vaia, ka veia am nghlat law be thei u, ti lü Pamhnam naw pyenki” a ti.
41 Isaiah said these things when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.
Hesajah naw Jesuha hlüngtainak hmu lü ania mawng cun a pyena kyaki.
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,
Acunsepi, Judah ngvaie üngka khawkän naw Jesuh jumkie. Pharisee naw sinakoka k’um üngkhyüh ami jah ksät vai kyüh u lü am phyeh u.
43 for they loved men’s praise more than God’s praise.
Mhnama jah mhlünmtaia kthaka khyanga jah mhlünmtai ami jawngnaka phäh ni.
44 Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me, but in him who sent me.
Jesuh naw, “Kei na jumki naküt cun naw, kei däk na jumki am ni, na tüi lawki pi jumki ni.
45 He who sees me sees him who sent me.
“Kei na hmuki cun naw, na tüi lawki pi hmuki ni.
46 I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
“Khawmdek vaisak khaia ka lawki ni, kei na jumki naküt cun nghmüp üng am ve ti.
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.
“Ka ngthu pyen ngja lü am jum u sepi, kei naw ngthu am jah mkhya pet nawng. Khawmdek ngthumkhyah khaia ka lawki am ni, khawmdek küikyan khaia va ka lawki.
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.
“Kei na ma lü ka ngthu pyene am ngaiki naw ngthumkhyah pet khai mat taeiki. Ka ngthu pyen, acuna ngthu naw akpäihnaka mhnüp üng ngthumkhyah pet khai.
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.
“Kamät naw khyaihnak am ka pyen am ni; Pa na tüih lawki naw ka pyen vai ja ka sang vai ngthu a na pet ni.
50 I know that his commandment is eternal life. The things therefore which I speak, even as the Father has said to me, so I speak.” (aiōnios g166)
“Ania a na peta ngthu cun anglät xünnaka kyaki ti ka ksingki. Acunakyase, ngthu ka pyen naküt cun Pa naw a na mtheh naküta kyaki” ngpyang lü a pyen. (aiōnios g166)
