Johane 12
1 Malatsi a le marataro pele ga meletlo ya Tlolaganyo e simologa, Jesu a goroga mo Bethania kwa Lasaro monna yo a mo rudisitseng a neng a le teng.
Then Iesus, sixe dayes before the Passeouer, came to Bethania, where Lazarus was, who died, whom he had raised from the dead.
2 Mme Jesu a baakanyediwa modiro wa tlotlo teng. Maratha a ba tsholela mme Lasaro ene a nna le bone kwa lomating lwa bojelo (tafole).
There they made him a supper, and Martha serued: but Lazarus was one of them that sate at the table with him.
3 Mme Marea a tsaya setlolo se se tlhwatlhwa kgolo se dirilwe ka dinkgisamonate a tlotsa dinao tsa ga Jesu ka sone, a bo a di phimola ka moriri wa gagwe. Mme ntlo ya tlala monkgo o o monate wa setlolo.
Then tooke Mary a pound of oyntment of Spikenarde very costly, and anoynted Iesus feete, and wiped his feete with her heare, and the house was filled with the sauour of the oyntment.
4 Mme Judase Isekariota, mongwe wa barutwa ba gagwe, ene yo o tlaa mo okang, a re,
Then said one of his disciples, euen Iudas Iscariot Simons sonne, which should betray him:
5 “Setlolo seo se ne se lekanye madi a mantsi. Se ka bo se rekisitswe mme madi a sone a abelwa bahumanegi.”
Why was not this oyntment sold for three hundreth pence, and giuen to the poore?
6 E ne e se gore ka go bua jalo o gopotse go tlhokomela bahumanegi, gonne o ne a le mmei wa madi a barutwa mme o ne a tle a a utswe a a dirise mo ditirong tsa gagwe!
Nowe he said this, not that he cared for the poore, but because hee was a theefe, and had the bagge, and bare that which was giuen.
7 Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Mo tlogele. O dirile jalo e le paakanyetso ya phitlho ya me.
Then said Iesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying she kept it.
8 Lo ka aga lo thusa bahumanegi, mme nna ga ke na go nna le lona ka lobaka lo loleele.”
For the poore alwayes yee haue with you, but me ye shall not haue alwayes.
9 Erile fa ba e leng batho fela ba Jerusalema ba utlwalela ka kgorogo ya gagwe ba itlhaganela ka bontsintsi go ya go mmona le go bona Lasaro, monna yo o rudileng.
Then much people of the Iewes knewe that hee was there: and they came, not for Iesus sake onely, but that they might see Lazarus also, whome he had raysed from the dead.
10 Mme ditlhogo tsa baperesiti tsa ikaelela go bolaya le Lasaro,
The hie Priestes therefore consulted, that they might put Lazarus to death also,
11 gonne e ne e le ka ntlha ya ga Lasaro gore baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba le bantsi ba tlogele Sejuta ba dumele mo go Jesu e le Mesia wa bone.
Because that for his sake many of the Iewes went away, and beleeued in Iesus.
12 Letsatsi le le latelang, dikgang tse di reng Jesu o mo tseleng ya Jerusalema tsa anama mo motseng, mme bontsintsi jo bogolo jwa baeti ba Tlolaganyo,
On the morowe a great multitude that were come to the feast, when they heard that Iesus should come to Hierusalem,
13 jwa tsaya dikala tsa makolane mme jwa fologela mo tseleng go mo kgatlhantsha ba goa ba re, “Mmoloki! Modimo segofatsa Kgosi ya Iseraele! A go bakwe moemedi wa Modimo!”
Tooke branches of palme trees, and went foorth to meete him, and cried, Hosanna, Blessed is the King of Israel that commeth in the Name of the Lord.
14 Jesu a tsamaya a palame tonkana, a diragatsa seporofeso se se reng
And Iesus found a yong asse, and sate thereon, as it is written,
15 “Se boifeng Kgosi ya lona, batho ba Iseraele, gonne e tlaa tla kwa go lona ka boingotlo, e palame tonkana!”
Feare not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King commeth sitting on an asses colte.
16 (Barutwa ba gagwe ba seka ba lemoga ka nako eo gore se e ne e le tiragatso ya seporofeso; mme morago ga Jesu a boela kwa kgalalelong ya gagwe kwa legodimong, ba simolola go lemoga gore go setse go diragetse diporofeso di le kae tsa lokwalo mo matlhong a bone).
But his disciples vnderstoode not these thinges at the first: but when Iesus was glorified, then remembred they, that these thinges were written of him, and that they had done these things vnto him.
17 Mme ba ba mo bontsintsing joo ba ba neng ba bonye Jesu a tsosa Lasaro mo baswing ba ne ba bolela gotlhe ka gone.
The people therefore that was with him, bare witnesse that hee called Lazarus out of the graue, and raised him from the dead.
18 Ke sone se batho ba le bantsi ba neng ba ya go mo kgatlhantsha, gonne ba ne ba utlwile kgakgamatso e tona eo.
Therefore mette him the people also, because they heard that he had done this miracle.
19 Mme Bafarasai ba raana ba re, “Re fentswe. Bonang, lefatshe lotlhe le mo setse morago!”
And the Pharises said among themselues, Perceiue ye howe ye preuaile nothing? Beholde, the worlde goeth after him.
20 Bagerika bangwe ba ba neng ba tsile mo Jerusalema go obama mo Tlolaganyong,
Nowe there were certaine Greekes among them that came vp to worship at the feast.
21 ba etela Filipo yo a neng a tswa Bethesaida, mme ba feta ba re, “Rara, re batla go rakana le Jesu.”
And they came to Philippe, which was of Bethsaida in Galile, and desired him, saying, Syr, we would see that Iesus.
22 Filipo a bolelela Anderea ka gone, mme ba tsamaya botlhe go kopa Jesu.
Philippe came and tolde Andrew: and againe Andrew and Philippe tolde Iesus.
23 Jesu a ba fetola ka gore nako e mo gorogetse ya go boela kwa kgalalelong ya gagwe kwa legodimong, le gore, “Ke tshwanetse go wa ka swa jaaka tlhaka ya mabele e e welang mo mmung wa boleme. Fa ke sa swe, ke tlaa nna ke le nosi, peo e e yosi. Mme loso lwa me lo tlaa tlhogisa ditlhaka tsa mabele di le dintsi, thobo e kgolo ya matshelo a masha.
And Iesus answered them, saying, The houre is come, that the Sonne of man must bee glorified.
Verely, verely I say vnto you, Except the wheate corne fall into the grounde and die, it bideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth foorth much fruite.
25 Fa lo rata botshelo jwa lona mono lefatsheng, bo tlaa lo latlhegela. Mme fa lo nyatsa botshelo jwa lona mono lefatsheng, o tlaa bo ananya ka kgalalelo ya bosakhutleng. (aiōnios g166)
He that loueth his life, shall lose it, and he that hateth his life in this world, shall keepe it vnto life eternall. (aiōnios g166)
26 “Fa e le gore Bagerika ba, ba batla go nna barutwa ba me, ba boleleleng gore ba tle ba ntshale morago, gonne batlhanka ba me ba tshwanetse go nna kwa ke teng. Mme fa ba ntshala morago, Rara o tlaa ba tlotla
If any man serue me, let him follow me: for where I am, there shall also my seruant be: and if any man serue me, him will my Father honour.
27 Jaanong mowa wa me o tshwenyegile thata. A nka rapela ka re, ‘Rara, mpoloka mo go se se nkemeng pele?’ Mme ke lone lebaka le ke le tletseng!
Now is my soule troubled: and what shall I say? Father, saue me from this houre: but therefore came I vnto this houre.
28 Rara, galaletsa leina la gago o bo o le tlotle.” Mme ga bua lentswe le tswa kwa legodimong le re, “Ke setse ke dirile jalo, mme ke tlaa dira jalo gape.”
Father, glorifie thy Name. Then came there a voyce from heauen, saying, I haue both glorified it, and will glorifie it againe.
29 Erile fa bontsintsi jwa batho bo utlwa lentswe, bangwe ba bone ba gopola gore ke tladi, fa ba bangwe bone ba re ke moengele o buile nae.
Then saide the people that stoode by, and heard, that it was a thunder: other said, An Angel spake to him.
30 Mme Jesu a ba raya a re, “Lentswe leo ga le a tla ka ntlha ya me, mme e leng ka ntlha ya lona.
Iesus answered, and said, This voyce came not because of me, but for your sakes.
31 Lobaka lwa katlholo ya lefatshe lo gorogile, le nako ya fa Satane, Kgosana ya lefatshe leno a tlaa kgoromelediwang ntle.
Now is the iudgement of this world: nowe shall the prince of this world be cast out.
32 Mme fa ke tsholediwa (mo mokgorong) ke tlaa gogela mongwe le mongwe kwa go nna?”
And I, if I were lift vp from the earth, will drawe all men vnto me.
33 O ne a bua jaana go supa ka fa o tlaa swang ka teng.
Nowe this sayd he, signifying what death he should die.
34 Bontsintsi jwa botsa jwa re, “Go swa? Re utlwile gore Mesia o tlaa tshela ka bosakhutleng mme ga a kitla a a swa. Ke eng fa o re o tlaa swa? O bua kaga. Mesia ofe?” (aiōn g165)
The people answered him, We haue heard out of the Law, that that Christ bideth for euer: and howe sayest thou, that that Sonne of man must be lift vp? Who is that Sonne of man? (aiōn g165)
35 Mme Jesu a fetola a re, “Lesedi la me le tlaa lo phatsimela ka lobakanyana. Tsamayang mo go lone lo sa ntse lo ka kgona, mme lo ye kwa lo batlang go ya teng pele ga lefifi le tla, gonne ka nako eo lobaka lo tlaa bo lo setse lo fetile thata gore lo bone tsela ya lona.
Then Iesus sayd vnto them, Yet a litle while is the light with you: walke while ye haue that light, lest the darkenes come vpon you: for hee that walketh in the darke, knoweth not whither he goeth.
36 Dirisang Lesedi nako e sa le teng; ka go dira jalo lo tlaa nna batsamaisi ba lesedi.” Morago ga a bua dilo tse, Jesu a tsamaya mme a ba iphitlhetse.
While ye haue that light, beleeue in that light, that ye may be the children of the light. These things spake Iesus, and departed, and hid himselfe from them.
37 Mme le fa a ne a dirile dikgakgamatso tse tsotlhe, batho ba le bantsi ba ne ba sa dumele gore ke Mesia.
And though he had done so many miracles before them, yet beleeued they not on him,
38 Ke sone tota se Isaia o se porofetileng a re: “Morena, re tlaa dumelwa ke mang? E mang yo o tlaa tsayang dikgakgamatso tsa Modimo tse di tona e le bosupi?”
That the saying of Esaias the Prophete might be fulfilled, that he sayd, Lord, who beleeued our report? and to whome is the arme of the Lord reueiled?
39 Mme ba ne ba seka ba dumela, fela jaaka Isaia le ene a ne a rile:
Therefore could they not beleeue, because that Esaias saith againe,
40 “Modimo o foufaditse matlho a bone o bile o thatafaditse dipelo tsa bone gore ba seka ba bona le fa e le go tlhaloganya e se re kgotsa ba sokologela kwa go nna gore ke ba fodise.”
He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they shoulde not see with their eyes, nor vnderstand with their heart, and should be conuerted, and I should heale them.
41 Isaia o ne a raya Jesu fa a porofeta jaana, gonne o ne a bonye ponatshego ya kgalalelo ya ga Mesia.
These things sayd Esaias when he sawe his glory, and spake of him.
42 Le fa go ntse jalo, le baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba le bantsi ba ne ba dumela mo go ene gore ke Mesia mme legale ba ne ba sa dumele fa ba na le batho ka ntlha ya go tshaba go kgaolwa ke Bafarasai mo tlung ya ga Jehofa;
Neuertheles, euen among the chiefe rulers, many beleeued in him: but because of the Pharises they did not confesse him, least they should be cast out of the Synagogue.
43 gonne ba ne ba rata kgalaletso ya batho bogolo go kgalaletso ya Modimo.
For they loued the prayse of men, more then the prayse of God.
44 Mme Jesu a goela kwa bontsintsing a re, “Fa lo ntumela lo dumela Modimo.
And Iesus cryed, and sayd, He that beleeueth in me, beleeueth not in me, but in him that sent me.
45 Gonne fa lo mpona, lo bona ene yo o nthomileng.
And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me.
46 Ke tsile ke le Lesedi go phatsima mo lefatsheng leno le le lefifi gore botlhe ba ba dumelang mo go nna ba seka ba tlhola ba tsamaya mo lefifing.
I am come a light into the world, that whosoeuer beleeueth in me, should not abide in darkenes.
47 Mme le fa e le mang yo o nkutlwang mme a sa nkobamele, ga ke moatlhodi wa gagwe, gonne ke tletse go boloka lefatshe eseng go le atlhola.
And if any man heare my wordes, and beleeue not, I iudge him not: for I came not to iudge the world, but to saue the world.
48 Mme botlhe ba ba nkganang le molaetsa wa me, ba tlaa atlholwa ka Letsatsi la Katlholo ka mafoko a boammaaruri a ke a buileng.
He that refuseth me, and receiueth not my wordes, hath one that iudgeth him: the worde that I haue spoken, it shall iudge him in the last day.
49 Gonne se ga se tlhaloganyo ya me, mme ke lo boleletse se Rara a rileng ke se lo bolelele.
For I haue not spoken of my selfe: but the Father which sent me, hee gaue me a commandement what I should say, and what I should speake.
50 Mme ke itse gore ditaolo tsa gagwe di gogela kwa botshelong jo bo sa khutleng; jalo sengwe le sengwe se a reng ke se bue, ke a se bua!” (aiōnios g166)
And I knowe that his commandement is life euerlasting: the thinges therefore that I speake, I speake them so as the Father sayde vnto me. (aiōnios g166)
