The Third Passover
1 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
Basi, kabla ya sikukuu ya Pasaka, Yesu, hali akijua ya kuwa saa yake imefika, atakayotoka katika ulimwengu kwenda kwa Baba, naye ali amewapenda watu wake katika ulimwengu, aliwapenda upeo.
The Last Supper
2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son , to betray him;
Hata wakati wa chakula cha jioni; naye Ibilisi amekwisha kumtia Yuda, mwana wa Simoni Iskariote, moyo wa kumsaliti;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;
Yesu, hali akijua ya kuwa Baba amempa vyote mikononi mwake, na ya kuwa alitoka kwa Mungu naye anakwenda kwa Mungu,
4 he riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
aliondoka chakulani; akaweka kando mavazi yake, akatwaa kitambaa, akajifunga kiunoni.
5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
Kisha akatia maji katika bakuli, akaanza kuwatawadha wanafunzi miguu, na kuifuta kwa kile kitambaa alichojifunga.
6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
Hivyo yuaja kwa Simoni Petro. Huyo akamwambia, Bwana! Wewe wanitawadha miguu mimi?
7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
Yesu akajibu, akamwambia, Nifanyalo wewe hujui sasa; lakini utalifahamu baadaye.
8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
Petro akamwambia, Wewe hutanitawadha miguu kamwe. Yesu akamwambia, Kama nisipokutawadha, huna shirika nami.
9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
Simoni Petro akamwambia, Bwana, si miguu yangu tu, hata na mikono yangu na kichwa changu pia.
10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
Yesu akamwambia, Yeye aliyekwisha kuoga hana haja ila ya kutawadha miguu, bali yu safi mwili wote; nanyi mmekuwa safi, lakini si nyote.
11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
Kwa maana alimjua yeye atakayemsaliti; ndiyo maana alisema, Si nyote mlio safi.
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
Basi alipokwisha kuwatawadha miguu, na kuyatwaa mavazi yake, na kuketi tena, akawaambia, Je! Mmeelewa na hayo niliyowatendea?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
Ninyi mwaniita, Mwalimu, na, Bwana; nanyi mwanena vema, maana ndivyo nilivyo.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
Basi ikiwa mimi, niliye Bwana na Mwalimu, nimewatawadha miguu, imewapasa vivyo kutawadhana miguu ninyi kwa ninyi.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
Kwa kuwa nimewapa kielelezo; ili kama mimi nilivyowatendea, nanyi mtende vivyo.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
Amin, amin, nawaambia ninyi, Mtumwa si mkuu kuliko bwana wake; wala mtume si mkuu kuliko yeye aliyempeleka.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
Mkiyajua hayo, heri ninyi mkiyatenda.
18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
Sisemi habari za ninyi nyote; nawajua wale niliowachagua; lakini andiko lipate kutimizwa, Aliyekula chakula changu Ameniinulia kisigino chake.
19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he .
Tangu sasa nawaambia kabla hayajatukia, ili yatakapotukia mpate kuamini ya kuwa mimi ndiye.
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
Amin, amin, nawaambieni, Yeye ampokeaye mtu ye yote nimpelekaye, anipokea mimi; naye anipokeaye mimi; ampokea yeye aliyenipeleka.
21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
Naye alipokwisha kusema hayo, Yesu alifadhaika rohoni, akashuhudia akisema, Amin, amin, nawaambieni, Mmoja wenu atanisaliti.
22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
Wanafunzi wakatazamana, huku wakiona shaka ni nani amtajaye.
23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.
Na palikuwapo mmoja wa wanafunzi wake, ameegama kifuani pa Yesu, ambaye Yesu alimpenda.
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.
Basi Simoni Petro akampungia mkono, akamwambia, Uliza, ni nani amtajaye?
25 He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
Basi yeye, hali akimwelekea Yesu kifua chake, akamwambia, Bwana, ni nani?
26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it . And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
Basi Yesu akajibu, Ndiye mtu yule nitakayemtowelea tonge na kumpa. Akatowelea tonge, akalitwaa akampa Yuda, mwana wa Simoni Iskariote.
27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
Na baada ya hilo tonge Shetani alimwingia. Basi Yesu akamwambia, Uyatendayo yatende upesi.
28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
Wala hakuna mtu katika wale walioketi chakulani aliyeijua sababu ya kumwambia hivyo.
29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
Kwa maana wengine walidhania, kwa kuwa Yuda huchukua mfuko, ya kwamba Yesu alimwambia kama, Nunua mnavyovihitaji kwa sikukuu; au kwamba awape maskini kitu.
30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.
Basi huyo, akiisha kulipokea lile tonge, akatoka mara hiyo. Nako kulikuwa ni usiku.
31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
Basi huyo alipokwisha kutoka, Yesu alisema, Sasa ametukuzwa Mwana wa Adamu, naye Mungu ametukuzwa ndani yake.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
Mungu naye atamtukuza ndani ya nafsi yake; naye atamtukuza mara.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
Enyi watoto wadogo, bado kitambo kidogo nipo pamoja nanyi; mtanitafuta; na kama vile nilivyowaambia Wayahudi ya kwamba, Mimi niendako ninyi hamwezi kuja; kadhalika sasa nawaambia ninyi.
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Amri mpya nawapa, Mpendane. Kama vile nilivyowapenda ninyi, nanyi mpendane vivyo hivyo.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
Hivyo watu wote watatambua ya kuwa ninyi mmekuwa wanafunzi wangu, mkiwa na upendo ninyi kwa ninyi.
36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
Simoni Petro akamwambia, Bwana, unakwendapi? Yesu akamjibu, Niendako huwezi kunifuata sasa; lakini utanifuata baadaye.
37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
Petro akamwambia, Bwana, kwa nini mimi nisiweze kukufuata sasa? Mimi nitautoa uhai wangu kwa ajili yako.
38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
Yesu akamjibu, Je! Wewe utautoa uhai wako kwa ajili yangu? Amin, amin, nakuambia, Jimbi hatawika hata wewe utakapokuwa umenikana mara tatu.
