1Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
1 Laata màggalu bésu Jéggi ba la woon. Yeesu xamoon na ne, waxtu wi mu war a génne àddina, dem ca wetu Baay ba, jot na. Ku bëgg ñoñam yi nekk ci àddina la, te bëgg na leen ba fa mbëggeel man a yem.
2During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,
2 Yeesu ak taalibe yaa ngi doon reer. Fekk na booba Seytaane xiirtal Yudaa, doomu Simoŋ Iskariyo, ngir mu wori Yeesu.
3Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God,
3 Yeesu xamoon na ne, Yàlla joxoon na ko sañ-sañ ci lépp, xam it ne, ca Yàlla la jóge te ca moom lay delluwaat.
4arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist.
4 Mu daldi jóge ca reer ba, summi mbubbam, daldi jël ab sarbet, laxas ko ci ndiggam.
5Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
5 Noonu mu sotti ndox ci ab këll, daldi tàmbali di raxas tànki taalibe ya, di leen fomp ak sarbet, ba mu laxasaayoo.
6Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”
6 Bi mu agsee ba ca Simoŋ Piyeer, kooku ne ko: «Boroom bi, ndax yaw dangaa nar a raxas samay tànk?»
7Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”
7 Yeesu tontu ko ne: «Xamoo fii mu nekk li may def, waaye dinga ko xami.»
8Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”
8 Piyeer ne ko: «Déedéet, duma nangu mukk nga raxas samay tànk.» Yeesu ne ko: «Su ma la raxasul, doo bokk ak man dara.»
9Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
9 Simoŋ Piyeer ne ko: «Kon nag Boroom bi, bul yem rekk ci tànk yi, waaye raxasaaleel loxo yi ak bopp bi!»
10Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”
10 Yeesu ne ko: «Ku sangu ba noppi, soxlaatul a raxas lu dul ay tànkam, ndaxte set na wecc. Yéen nag set ngeen, waaye du ñépp!»
11For he knew him who would betray him, therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”
11 Fekk Yeesu xamoon na ki ko nar a wor, looloo tax mu ne: «Setuleen yéen ñépp.»
12So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
12 Bi mu leen raxasalee seeni tànk ba noppi, Yeesu dafa solaat mbubbam, dellu toogaat ne leen: «Ndax xam ngeen li ma leen defal?
13 You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.
13 Yéen a ngi may wooye “Kilifa gi” ak “Boroom bi,” te wax ngeen dëgg, moom laa.
14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
14 Kon bu fekkee ne man miy Boroom bi tey Kilifa gi, maa leen raxasal seeni tànk, yéen itam war ngeen di raxasalante seeni tànk.
15 For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.
15 Bàyyil naa leen fi royukaay, ngir ngeen di jëf, nii ma jëfeek yéen.
16 Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither one who is sent greater than he who sent him.
16 Ci dëgg-dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, jaam gënul a màgg sangam, mbaa ndaw, ki ko yónni.
17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
17 Gannaaw xam ngeen loolu, bu ngeen doxalee noonu, dingeen bég.
18 I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’ Psalm 41:9
18 «Yéen ñépp taxuleen may wax; xam naa ñi ma tànn. Waaye li Mbind mi wax, fàww mu am, bi ñu naan: “Ki lekk sama dugub wéq na ma.”
19 From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.
19 Maa ngi leen koy wax ci teel, bala looloo ñëw, ngir bu ñëwee, ngeen gëm ne, Maay ki nekk.
20 Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”
20 Ci dëgg-dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, ku nangu kenn ci ñi may yónni, nangu nga ma, man itam; te ku ma nangu, nangu nga ki ma yónni.»
21When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
21 Bi Yeesu waxee loolu ba noppi, mu jàq, biral ne: «Ci dëgg-dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, kenn ci yéen dina ma wor.»
22The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.
22 Taalibe yi di xoolante, te xamuñu kan lay wax.
23One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ breast.
23 Ka Yeesu bëggoon te mu bokkoon ca taalibe ya, ma nga sóonu woon ca kaw Yeesu.
24Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”
24 Kooku la Simoŋ Piyeer liyaar, ngir mu laaj Yeesu ki ko taxoon di wax.
25He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ breast, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
25 Taalibe ba daldi walbatiku ca Yeesu, laaj ko ne: «Boroom bi, kooku kan la?»
26Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
26 Yeesu ne ko: «Dinaa capp dogu mburu ci ndab li; ki ma koy jox, kooku la.» Noonu Yeesu jël dogu mburu, capp ko ca ndab la, daldi koy jox Yudaa, doomu Simoŋ Iskariyo.
27After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
27 Naka la Yudaa jël dog wa, Seytaane dugg ci moom. Yeesu ne ko: «Gaawantul ci li ngay def!»
28Now no man at the table knew why he said this to him.
28 Amul kenn ca ña fa toogoon ku xam lu tax mu wax ko loolu.
29For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
29 Waaye gannaaw Yudaa moo yoroon boyetu xaalis bi, am ñu xalaat ne, Yeesu dafa koo wax, mu dem jëndi li war ci màggal gi, walla mu ne ko mu dem sarax miskin yi.
30Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
30 Yudaa nag jël dogu mburu ma, daldi génn ca saa sa. Booba guddi woon na.
31When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
31 Bi Yudaa génnee, Yeesu ne: «Léegi nag ndamu Doomu nit ki feeñ na, te ndamu Yàlla feeñ na itam ci moom.
32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.
32 Te bu ma feeñalee ndamu Yàlla, Yàlla itam ci teewaayam dina feeñal ndamu Doomu nit ki, te dina ko def léegi.
33 Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.
33 Samay soppe, sama nekk ak yéen dootul yàgg. Dingeen may seet, waaye maa ngi leen di wax léegi li ma waxoon Yawut ya: fa ma jëm, dungeen fa man a dem.
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just like I have loved you; that you also love one another.
34 Maa ngi leen di jox ndigal lu bees: bëgganteleen. Nangeen di bëggante ni ma leen bëgge.
35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
35 Ni ñuy xame ne samay taalibe ngeen, mooy ngeen bëggante.»
36Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”
36 Simoŋ Piyeer laaj ko ne: «Boroom bi, foo jëm?» Yeesu ne ko: «Fa ma jëm, mënuloo ma faa topp léegi, waaye dinga ma toppi ca kanam.»
37Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
37 Piyeer ne ko: «Boroom bi, lu tax mënuma laa topp léegi? Àttan naa joxe sama bakkan ngir yaw!»
38Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.
38 Yeesu ne ko: «Àttan ngaa joxe sa bakkan ngir man? Ci dëgg-dëgg maa ngi la koy wax, bala ginaar a sab, dinga ma weddi ñetti yoon.
