1 Aleapwale muntu yomwii lina lakwe Lazalo, nanoyo angile molwile. Omwenee angile khwikhalaa Betania khonaa alevakhwikhala Malia no Malita vilombolakwe. 2 Malia oyo amwenee yunaa aleamwetela Mwene makhuta gakhotukelela mo megolo no khomopogosa nyele jakwe, seji mokolwawe Lazalo angile molwile. 3 Gechoo viloombo vakwe alevatoma okhombe khwa Yesu khomoweela, "Mwene, molaasi wakhoo yunaa omotogwile a molwile."

4 Yesu panaa aleapata okhombe owoo, apalaa, "Olwile khotopo omowolage, ila olalageela venaa Matuunda a molaala. Ili Mwana wa Matuunda akholiwe khokelela owoo olwile."

5 Ninga venaa Yesu angile khovatogwa Malita no Malia palomwi no Lazalo, 6 panaa aleategela kete Lazalo a molwile, aleikhala akhokhonye no khokelelya nsiko jewele. 7 Apenee Yesu avawelaa vahemba vakwe, "Khotuuwe Yudea."

8 Vahemba vakwe vamowela, "Molaangi, ituungo ikupe topo lakelaga Vayahudi alevakhopooga khokhowolaga ne mabwe, kho kee khopooga khotuuwa khanke okhoo?"

9 Yesu avawelaa, "Mbi lyonse letokhola matuungo ikomi ne gawele? Muntu mbe ageende lyonse khotopo ikumpe kho nguno gopwale welo wa paliwelelo. 10 Ila yeyensi yunaa khogendaa otikho alaikumpa kho nguno welo otapoya mokhate yawe."

11 Yesu panaa aleamalya khopaala egoo, aleapala, "Molaasi wisu Lazalo seji agonagaa, ila onenee ndapeta khomolawelya."

12 Vahemba vakwe vamoweela, "Mwene, mbe agonagaa ndoolo, alapona."

13 Yesu angile khopalela ncha ya Lazalo, ila evenee alevakhosiima khogona ndoolo.

14 Apenee, Yesu aleavawela patokhola khovaswekha, "Lazalo afwagaa. 15 Ila onene nkhotogwaa kho nguno alentapoya panaa Lazalo alekhochaa, ili onywenywe mokhowole khogoomba. Gechoo khopetage khokhayaakwe."

16 Tomasi yunaa alekhwetwaa Ipasa avawelaa vahemba vayakwe, "Nasu khopetage khofwapalomwi no Yesu."

17 Yesu panaa alepikha okhoo ihala la Betania, aleamopikhaa Lazalo aleatulagwaa mwi khabuli kho nsiko jenee. 18 Ihala la Betania angile lepwale pepi ne Yelusalemu, otale wa kilomita jetato. 19 Vayahudi vinki angile vijaga Betania khovalamocha Malita no Malia kho nguno ya ncha ya mokolwawe Lazalo.

20 Malita panaa aleategelaa Yesu iijile, apetaa khomowawola, ila Malia aleasigaa khokhaye. 21 Malita amowelaa Yesu, "Mwene, mbe anga owee opwale epa, mokolwaane, anga khotopo afwee. 22 Ila manyile ninga seji mbe oloombe chechensi khwa Matuunda, khakhopela."

23 Yesu amowelaa, "Mokolwakhoo khafufokha."

24 Malita amowelaa, "Manyile kete alafufokha ituungo la khofufolwaa vachi isiko la odugo."

25 Yesu amowelaa, "Onene amwenee ofufolo no opanga. Muntu yunaa khongoomba onenee ninga mbe alafwa alaawa no opanga, 26 muntu yeyensi yunaa mopanga no khongoomba onene, khwa khapanga khotopo achee. Mbi, khogagoomba ega?"

27 Malita amowelaa, "Avyenee Mwene, onene nagombaga kete ogwegwe amwenee Kilisto, Mwana wa Matuunda, yunaa Matuunda aleatolapela kete alamotoma."

28 Malita Panaa aleamalya khopaala egoo, ingelaa mokhate no khomweta Malia pampelo, amowelaa aleemwi, "Molaangi apwale epa, khokweta." 29 Malia panaa aleategelaa gechoo, angile anyanyokha waango, amolondaa Yesu. 30 Ituungo eloo, Yesu angile akhale khopikha pihala la Betania, ila angile apwale apaponye panaa alevitaanga no Malita. 31 Vayahudi vanaa angile vapwale pakhaye epoo khomolamochaa Malia, panaa alevamowona Malia anyanyokha waango khopuma panji alevamoloonda, alevakhosiima ailee khokotela kho khabuli.

32 Malia panaa aleapikhaa lwande yenaa aleapwale Yesu, aleatungamaa no khomoweela, "Mwene, mbe anga owee opwale epa, mokolwaane, angakhotopo afwee."

33 Yesu panaa aleamowonaa, Malia khokotaa palomwi ne Vayahudi vanaa aleviija palomwi nanoyo, aleasayaa no mooyo gwakwe gwasaata. 34 Yesu avawolyaa, "Mbi mwamozyekhaga kwenii?"

Vamoweela, "Mwene, ijo okuune."

35 Yesu akotaa.

36 Apenee Vayahudi vapaala, "Kunagi venaa aleamotogwile Lazalo."

37 Ila vantu vaange vapaala, "Muntu oyo amwene yunaa aleamodigola mtulu oyoo, kho kee aleakhakhowola khomonojaa Lazalo akhafwe?"

38 Yesu panaa angile akhale khosayaa no khwitegeela viba momooyo gwakwe, apetaa kho khabuli. Ikhabuli eloo angile ipinga lenaa angile legubikwe ne ibwe pamolyango. 39 Yesu avaweela, "Lewochagi ibwee eloo."

Malita yunaa angile ilombolakwe no Lazalo aleapalaa, "Mwene, seji khotukhaa, kho nguno atite nsiko jenee mpuma panaa aleazyekhwa."

40 Yesu amowelaa "Mbi, alenkhakowela kete mbe olagomba olawona olaala wa Matuunda?"

41 Gechoo alevalewochaa ibwee elo. Apenee Yesu aleakunaa khochanya khwa Matuunda no khopaala, "Nkokosongela Daada yaane kho nguno ogwegwee khontegelelya. 42 Manyile kete khontegelelaja nsiko jensi, ila nkhopaala geeke kho nguno ya vantu vanaa vimelelaga epa, ila nkopooga vandye khogoomba kete ogwegwe amwenee yunaa alewantomaga."

43 Yesu panaa aleamalya khopaala egoo, aleapalaa kho lolii lokolo, "Lazalo, wiije okhono panji." 44 Lazalo yunaa aleafwagaa aleapuma panji ya ikhabuli, okho mekhono ne megolo jakwe jitungilwe shanda. Osho wakwe alewapilingagwaa ketambala.

Yesu avawelaa, "Motungulagi no momoleke apete."

45 Vayahudi vinki vanaa angile vapwale palomwi no Malia, panaa alevawona mpola je Yesu aleanogaja, alevamogoomba. 46 Ila Vayahudi vaange alevapeta khwa Mafalisayo khovaweela ganaa aleaganogaja Yesu. 47 Gechoo valaala va vapumya matambekho ne Mafalisayo aleviitanga iluungo la ivanza ikolo la Vayahudi, viwolya.

"Seji khonojee kee? Muntu khonoja lomekho nyinki. 48 Mbe khomoleke endelele khonojaa lomekho eje, vantu vensi valamogoomba, apenee valaala va Loma valiija khononanga Nyoomba ya Matuunda ne nse yisu!"

49 Ila yomwi wa valaala vawe yunaa angile khwetwaa Kayafa, yunaa angile mopumya matambekho molaala wa Matuunda kho mwakha ogoo, avawelaa, "Onywenywe mokhamanya kento chechensi! 50 Mbi mokhamanya kete amba visoga mbe muntu yomwi afwee kho nguno ya vantu vinki, khokela nse yensi inonwee?" 51 Kayafa aleakhapala gechoo kho masiimo gakwe mwenee. Ila kho nguno angile mopumya matambekho molaala kho mwakha ogoo, aleamanyile kete Yesu alafwaa kho nguno ya nse yakwe, 52 ila nkha kho nguno ya nse eye topo, ila kho nguno ya khovakhongan'ya vana va Matuunda vanaa vasambalaga okho no okhoo, ili khovanoja vawe palomwi.

53 Gechoo, mpuma nsiko eyoo Vayahudi alevendelela khopooga njela ya khomowolaga Yesu. 54 Gechoo, Yesu angile akhagenda khanke pawelo pakhate ya Vayahudi. Aleapuma epoo no khopeta pepi ne pipalangwa, pihala lenaa lekwetwa Efulaimu ikhala okhoo palomwi ne vahemba vakwe. 55 Wenga wa Vayahudi wa pasakha angile watelelaga, vantu vinki alevapeta Yelusalemu velopiwee ili vanojwe khogoombwa kho njaanga ja khomokumbekha Matuunda panaa Pasakha aleikhale khopikha. 56 Evoo vantu vanaa angile vapeta Yelusalemu alevandya khomopooga Yesu. Nanevo panaa aleveema kho lwande yenaa ipwale mokhate ya Nyoomba ya Matuunda, vawaa vakhwiwolya, "Mbi onywenywe mokhowona mbi? Mbi Yesu khotopo iije kho wenga owo?" 57 Valaala va Vapumya matambekho va Matuunda ne Mafalisayo, alevawalagelelya vantu, muntu yeyensi yunaa amanyile khonaa Yesu apwale avawele ili vakhowole khomogweela.
