1Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, the hometown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
1Sikes gaire gerger epe paseka akerare, Iesu Bethania tabarki, Lazaro dali, abele le eded akaida eudelam Iesu de.
2So they hosted a dinner for Jesus there. Martha served, and Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with Him.
2Uiaba abele leuer derser abim: Maretha memeg le; Lazaro uiabi kemem leuer ero abi dog.
3Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
3Maria muro netate paun tekalu, lu kar, a Iesu ra neisi teter dedered, a itkir abi mus de: mitkar abele meta muro lag de.
4But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was going to betray Him, asked,
4Nerute abara kaimeg giz, nei Iuda Isakariota, Simona ra uerem, abele le ko abi keserkeser, E detager, kega,
5“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”
5Nalugelam nole terapei abele muro, bodomalam thri handed denari, ko ikuar gaire le lu kak?
6Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.
6E nole abele detaut abelelam E gaire le lu kak omare; epe E eruam le, a epei abi dog, E tais gaire lu arot.
7“Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.
7Iesu detager, kega, Nole abi ekai; E abele ge ikedilu a ko tabarki abele gerger kari natkobei.
8The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.”
8Gaire le lu kak mena uabi dog; kaka nole niaiem uabi dog.
9Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews learned that Jesus was there. And they came not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.
9Dordor Iudaia giz umele E abele ge emri: uiaba tabakeuare, nole Iesuelam tepteb, epe uiaba lagelag Lazaro ko dasmer, abele le eded akaida eudelam Iesu de.
10So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well,
10Gaire tarim zogozogo le mer atager ko Lazaro ipit eumilu;
11for on account of him many of the Jews were deserting them and believing in Jesus.
11Abelelam gaire Iudaia bakeuare, a Iesu oituli abielam.
12The next day the great crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.
12Iuaokaer, gaire le lakub uetpurem tabakeuare asoli, kega, Iesu ko tabakeam Ierusalemem,
13They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”
13Uiaba pama lislis taisare, a bakeuare abi obapit, a ereretikri, kega, Hosana: Isaraela Opole despili, Iehoua nei ge tabakeam.
14Finding a young donkey, Jesus sat on it, as it is written:
14Iesu nerute kebi asina erdalu, E abi tumge egimulu; mokakalam mer detali, kega,
15“Do not be afraid, O Daughter of Zion. See, your King is coming, seated on the colt of a donkey.”
15Ma nole geum kak Ziona ra neur; dasmer, mara Opole tabakeam, asina ra uerem egimulu.
16At first His disciples did not understand these things, but after Jesus was glorified they remembered what had been done to Him, and they realized that these very things had also been written about Him.
16Abara kaimeg giz nole akmer kak abele gaire lu gizlam: epe emetu Iesu despereda, uiaba dikiapor, kega, Emetu detali abele gaire lu abielam, a emetu uiaba ikerare abele gaire lu abim.
17Meanwhile, many people continued to testify that they had been with Jesus when He called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead.
17Gaire le abi dog ageakarem E Lazaro dabgiri aolam, a abi eded akaida eudelam.
18That is also why the crowd went out to meet Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.
18Abelelam gaire le lakub bakeuare abi obapit uiaba asoli E ikeli abele atamelam.
19Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You can see that this is doing you no good. Look how the whole world has gone after Him!”
19Abelelam Faresaio giz mer atager, kega, Uaba dasmer, uaba umer kak nerute lu; dasmer, geseb ge uridili abi irmili.
20Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the feast.
20Uader Helene giz kemem gaire le uetpurem tabakeuare ko esorerapare:
21They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested of him, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”
21Ui Filipoim tabakeuare, Bethesaida Galilaia le, a abi eutumer, kega, Kole, ki lagelag Iesu dasmer.
22Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew, and both of them went and told Jesus.
22Filipo bakeam a Anedereaim detager: epe Anederea a Filipo tabakeamulei, a Iesuim detaut.
23But Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
23Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Kerker idali, Le la Uerem despili.
24Truly, truly, I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a seed; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
24Ageakar, ageakar, kaka uabi detager, kega, Ese nerute kon kep nole seb ge abi, a uatuet, E tepteb ipe: ese E uatuet, E au turum.
25Whoever loves his life will lose it, but whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
25Abele le abara eded nasge, abele ko abi: epe abele le abara eded dedkoli geseb ge, E ko eded nagri aseamur kak.
26If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, My servant will be as well. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
26Ese nerute le kara memeg le, abara dorge kari narmili; abele uteb kaka emri, kara memeg le la uteb dali: ese nerute le kari memeg le, Baba de abi despili.
27Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.
27Peirdi kara nerkep okasosok; nalu kaka ko detaut? Baba kari nakai abele kerkerlam. Epe abelelam kaka tabarki abele kerker ge.
28Father, glorify Your name!” Then a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.”
28Baba, mabara nei despili. Ege kodo mer uatabu kotorlam, kega, Kaka emetu despili, kaka iako despili.
29The crowd standing there heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to Him.
29Gaire le abele bako asoli, a detaut, kega, Girgir dali: uader detager, kega, Angela abi mer egali.
30In response, Jesus said, “This voice was not for My benefit, but yours.
30Iesu detaut, kega, Abele kodo mer nole uatabu karim, epe uabim.
31Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.
31Peirdi dulam gesepem tabarki: peirdi ko adem imu geseb tarim le.
32And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw everyone to Myself.”
32A kaka, ese kari nagaret armem geseblam, kaka ko eguatumur gaire le uridili karim.
33He said this to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.
33E abele ge detaut, ko etomeret abele eud ko abim tabarki.
34The crowd replied, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever. So how can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”
34Gaire le abi detaut, kega, Keriba asoli gelarlam, kega, Keriso niaiem tekue: nalugelam mama detaut, kega, Ko armem egaret Le la Uerem? Nete Le la Uerem dali?
35Then Jesus told them, “For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.
35Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Datki teupei uabi dog. Bakeuare kerker uaba datki nagri uabi dog, kupkupilam uabim tabarki: abele le ki ge degemili, E nole umer kak E na gedim bakeam.
36While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light.” After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them.
36Datki egaret kerker datki uabi dog, ueakai uaba datki ra uerem. Iesu abele detaut, E bakeamulu, a uiabielam ispilu.
37Although Jesus had performed so many signs in their presence, they still did not believe in Him.
37E ikerare gaire adigir uiabi opem, epe uiaba nole abim oatur kak:
38This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
38Ueakai eski abele mer Isaia perofeta de detaut, kega, Opole, nete de egaret keriba merkem? A neteim paret kak Iehoua ra tag?
39For this reason they were unable to believe. For again, Isaiah says:
39Uiaba umer kak oituli, abelelam Isaia de iako detaut, kega,
40“He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so that they cannot see with their eyes, and understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.”
40E uiaba gaire pone darasamare, a uiaba nerkep imirida; ueakai uiaba nole asmer kak gaire pone de, a nole akiapor kak nerkep de, akomelam, a kaka uiabi nadgirare.
41Isaiah said these things because he saw Jesus’ glory and spoke about Him.
41Abele Isaia de detaut, abelelam E abara zorom dasmer; E abi abeilu.
42Nevertheless, many of the leaders believed in Him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, for fear that they would be put out of the synagogue.
42Gaire uiabielam tarim le abi oituli; epe uiaba nole etomeret kak gaire Faresaiolam, uiabi amulam sunagolam:
43For they loved praise from men more than praise from God.
43Abelelam lu kar uiabim despili lelam, tumem despili Adelam.
44Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in Me does not believe in Me alone, but in the One who sent Me.
44Iesu ereretikri, a detaut, kega, Abele le kari oituli, E nole kari oituli tepteb, epe abim kari namarida.
45And whoever sees Me sees the One who sent Me.
45Abele le kari nasmili, E abi dasmer kari namarida.
46I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in Me should remain in darkness.
46Kaka nabue geseb datki, ueakai nole kupkup ge emri gaire le uridili karim oituli.
47As for anyone who hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him. For I have not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
47Ese nerute le gaire kara mer asoli, a nole oatur kak, kaka nole abi itmer: abelelam kaka nole gesepem tabarki ko eutumer, epe gesepem ko ededem.
48There is a judge for the one who rejects Me and does not receive My words: The word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
48Abele le kari natuaki, a nole kara mer egaret, abi dog dulam: abele mer kaka detaut, E dali abi dulam keubu gerger.
49I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.
49Kaka nole karbabu detaut; epe Baba de kari namarida, E kari gelar nakuar abele lu kaka ko detager, a detaut.
50And I know that His command leads to eternal life. So I speak exactly what the Father has told Me to say.”
50Kaka umele eded aseamur kak abara gelar; abele gaire mer kaka detager, abkoreb Baba de kari nataut, eko kaka detaut.
