Yon dam fè lwanj pou Jezi
(Mat 26:6-13; Mak 14:3-9)
12 Sis jou anvan fèt Pak la, Jezi ale Betani kote Laza, nonm li te resisite a te rete. 2 Yo te fè bèl fèt pou li la, Mat t ap fè sèvi manje, epi Laza te la ak envite yo ap manje ak Jezi. 3 Lè sa a, Mari pran yon boutèy losyon san melanj ki koute chè anpil, plis pase yon lit konsa, li mouye pye Jezi ak losyon an epi li siye yo ak cheve l. Lè sa a, tout kay la te vin gen lodè losyon an.
4 Jida Iskaryòt, youn nan disip yo, ki t apral trayi Jezi a, te di disip yo konsa: 5 Pou ki nou pa vann losyon an pou twasan denye,[a] nou ta bay pòv yo kòb sa a? 6 Li t ap pale konsa, se pa paske l te panse ak pòv yo non. Se paske se te yon vòlè l te ye, epi se li menm ankò ki te kenbe kès la. Li te konn vòlè nan sa yo mete ladan l.
7 Lè sa a, Jezi di: “Kite l trankil, se yon ekonomi l ap fè pou jou antèman m. 8 Pou pòv yo, n ap toujou genyen yo ak nou,[b] men mwen menm, mwen p ap la pou tout tan ak nou.”
Konplo kont Laza
9 Yon gwo foul Jwif te vin konnen Jezi te la, yo pa t vini pou yo wè Jezi sèlman, men pou yo te kapab wè Laza Jezi te resisite a tou. 10 Chèf prèt yo te deside touye Laza tou. 11 Paske, poutèt li menm, anpil Jwif vire do kite yo pou y al kwè nan Jezi.
Jezi antre nan Jerizalèm tankou yon wa
(Mat 21:1-11; Mak 11:1-11; Lik 19:28-40)
12 Nan demen, tout foul moun ki te vin nan fèt la te vin konnen Jezi t apral rive nan lavil Jerizalèm. 13 Yo pran branch bwa soti al rankontre l. Yo t ap plede rele:
14 Jezi jwenn yon jenn ti bourik, li monte sou li, jan Bib la te di a:
16 Nan moman sa a, disip yo pa t konprann sa k t ap pase a. Men lè Jezi te fin retounen al jwenn papa l, yo reyalize bagay sa yo te ekri sou li, epi se sa menm yo te fè pou li.
17 Foul moun ki te la yo, lè li te rele Laza soti nan tonm nan, lè li te resisite l la, yo tout t ap rann temwanyaj pou li. 18 Se poutèt sa, foul moun sa yo te vin kontre li, paske yo te tande ki kalite mirak li te fè. 19 Lè sa a, Farizyen yo t ap di antre yo menm: “Nou pa wè nou pa ka fè anyen? Men tout moun pati ale jwenn li.”
Jezi ap pale sou lanmò ak lavi
20 Te gen kèk moun pami Grèk yo ki te vini pou adore Bondye nan moman fèt la. 21 Y al jwenn Filip ki moun Bètsayida, nan teritwa Galile, yo mande l: “Mesye, nou ta renmen wè Jezi.” 22 Filip al di Andre sa, epi yo toulede al di Jezi sa ansanm.
23 Men, Jezi reponn yo konsa: “Moman an rive pou Pitit Lòm nan resevwa glwa li. 24 An verite, an verite, m ap di nou, si grenn mayi yo plante a pa mouri, l ap rete poukont li. Men si li mouri, l ap donnen anpil. 25 Moun ki renmen lavi l ap pèdi l, men moun ki bay lavi l pou lemonn, moun sa a va konsève lavi l pou letènite. 26 Si yon moun ap sèvi mwen, se pou l swiv mwen, epi kote m ye sèvitè mwen ap la tou. Si yon moun ap rann mwen sèvis, Papa m ap fè lwanj pou li.
Jezi pale sou lanmò li
27 Kounye a, m santi lespri m twouble. Ki sa m ta di? Papa, delivre m non anba tan soufrans sa a. Men, se pou sa menm mwen te vini. 28 Papa, fè wè glwa w non!”
Lè sa a, yon vwa soti nan syèl la, li di: “Mwen fè wè glwa m deja, epi m ap fè wè glwa m ankò.”
29 Foul moun ki te la yo te tande. Gen nan yo ki di se yon kout loray, gen lòt ki di se yon anj ki pale avè l.
30 Jezi reponn epi li di: “Se pa pou mwen menm vwa sa a pale, se poutèt nou menm. 31 Kounye a lè jijman lemonn rive, lè a rive pou chèf k ap domine sou lemonn nan tonbe. 32 Epi mwen menm, lè yo va leve m anwo[e] tè a, m ap rale tout moun vin jwenn mwen.” 33 Li te di sa pou l fè konprann kijan l ap mouri.
34 Foul la te reponn li: “Nou etidye nan Lalwa, lè Kris la vini l ap viv pou tout tan, kijan ou fè di fòk Pitit Lòm nan leve anwo latè a?[f] Ki moun Pitit Lòm nan ye?”
35 Jezi di yo: “Limyè[g] a avèk nou pou yon ti tan ankò. Mache toutotan limyè a la, pou fènwa pa kenbe nou. Paske moun k ap mache nan fènwa pa wè kote l prale. 36 Pandan nou genyen limyè a, se pou n kwè nan limyè a, kon sa nou va tounen pitit limyè.” Apre Jezi fin pale kon sa ak yo, li pati l al kache.
Kèk Jwif derefize kwè Jezi
37 Menm lè Jezi fè tout mirak sa yo devan pèp la, yo pa t kwè nan li 38 pou pawòl pwofèt Ezayi sa a te kapab akonpli:
“Senyè, kilès ki kwè nan sa yo tande n ap di?
Pouki moun pouvwa Senyè a parèt aklè?”(C)
39 Men pou kisa yo pa t kapab kwè, se Ezayi menm ki di ankò:
40 “Li fè yo avèg
epi li fè kè yo di
pou yo pa wè nan je yo,
pou yo pa konprann nan kè yo,
pou yo pa ta vire vin jwenn mwen,
pou m ta geri yo.”(D)
41 Ezayi te di sa, paske li te wè glwa Jezi, epi li pale de li.
42 Poutan, pami chèf yo menm, anpil te kwè nan Jezi. Men poutèt Farizyen yo, yo pa t oze di sa, yo te pè pou yo pa t mete yo deyò nan Sinagòg la. 43 Yo te prefere lwanj moun ba yo pase lwanj Bondye.
Ansèyman Jezi a gen pou jije lèzòm
44 Lè sa a, Jezi deklare byen fò: “Moun ki kwè nan mwen se pa nan mwen l kwè, se nan moun ki voye m nan li kwè. 45 Moun ki wè mwen wè moun ki voye m nan. 46 Mwen menm, mwen vini pou m yon limyè pou lemonn, pou nenpòt moun ki kwè nan mwen pa rete nan fènwa.
47 Si yon moun tande sa m di epi li pa pratike yo, se pa mwen k ap jije li, paske mwen pa vini pou m jije lemonn, mwen vini pou m sove lemonn. 48 Yon moun ki rejte m epi ki pa fè ka pawòl mwen, li gentan gen jij li: Pawòl mwen yo, se yo k ap jije li nan dènye jou a. 49 Mwen pa pale pou pwòp tèt pa m. Men, Papa m ki voye m, li preskri m sa m dwe di. 50 Mwen konnen sa l mande fè bay lavi etènèl. Se poutèt sa, mwen di sa m ap di, menm jan papa m di l.”

Mary Anoints Jesus at Bethany
12 Six days before (A)the Passover, (B)Jesus therefore came to Bethany, (C)where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 So they gave a dinner for him there. (D)Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him at table. 3 (E)Mary therefore took a pound[a] of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. 4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said, 5 “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii[b] and (F)given to the poor?” 6 He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and (G)having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it. 7 Jesus said, “Leave her alone, so that she may keep it[c] for the day of my burial. 8 For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.”
The Plot to Kill Lazarus
9 When the large crowd of the Jews learned that Jesus[d] was there, they came, not only on account of him but also to see Lazarus, (H)whom he had raised from the dead. 10 (I)So the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well, 11 because (J)on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus.
The Triumphal Entry
12 The next day (K)the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem. 13 So they took branches of (L)palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, (M)“Hosanna! Blessed is (N)he who comes in the name of the Lord, even (O)the King of Israel!” 14 And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,
15 (P)“Fear not, daughter of Zion;
behold, your king is coming,
sitting on a donkey's colt!”
16 (Q)His disciples did not understand these things at first, but (R)when Jesus was glorified, then (S)they remembered that these things had been written about him and had been done to him. 17 (T)The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to bear witness. 18 The reason why the crowd went to meet him (U)was that they heard he had done this sign. 19 So the Pharisees said to one another, (V)“You see that you are gaining nothing. Look, (W)the world has gone after him.”
Some Greeks Seek Jesus
20 Now (X)among those who went up to worship at the feast were some (Y)Greeks. 21 So these came to (Z)Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and asked him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22 Philip went and told (AA)Andrew; Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. 23 And Jesus answered them, (AB)“The hour has come (AC)for the Son of Man to be glorified. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, (AD)unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 (AE)Whoever loves his life loses it, and (AF)whoever (AG)hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If anyone serves me, he must (AH)follow me; and (AI)where I am, there will my servant be also. (AJ)If anyone serves me, (AK)the Father will honor him.
The Son of Man Must Be Lifted Up
27 (AL)“Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, (AM)save me from (AN)this hour’? But (AO)for this purpose I have come to (AP)this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name.” Then (AQ)a voice came from heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 29 The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, (AR)“An angel has spoken to him.” 30 Jesus answered, (AS)“This voice has come for your sake, not mine. 31 (AT)Now is the judgment of this world; now will (AU)the ruler of this world (AV)be cast out. 32 And I, (AW)when I am lifted up from the earth, (AX)will draw (AY)all people to myself.” 33 He said this (AZ)to show by what kind of death he was going to die. 34 So the crowd answered him, “We have heard from the Law that (BA)the Christ remains forever. How can you say that (BB)the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?” 35 So Jesus said to them, (BC)“The light is among you (BD)for a little while longer. (BE)Walk while you have the light, lest darkness (BF)overtake you. (BG)The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. 36 While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become (BH)sons of light.”
The Unbelief of the People
When Jesus had said these things, he departed and hid himself from them. 37 Though he had done so many signs before them, they still did not believe in him, 38 (BI)so that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
(BJ)“Lord, who has believed what he heard from us,
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Therefore they (BK)could not believe. For again Isaiah said,
40 (BL)“He has blinded their eyes
and (BM)hardened their heart,
lest they see with their eyes,
and understand with their heart, and turn,
and I would heal them.”
41 Isaiah said these things because (BN)he saw his glory and (BO)spoke of him. 42 Nevertheless, (BP)many even of the authorities believed in him, but (BQ)for fear of the Pharisees they did not (BR)confess it, so that they would not be (BS)put out of the synagogue; 43 (BT)for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God.
Jesus Came to Save the World
44 And Jesus cried out and said, (BU)“Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but (BV)in him who sent me. 45 And (BW)whoever (BX)sees me sees him who sent me. 46 (BY)I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness. 47 If anyone (BZ)hears my words and does not keep them, (CA)I do not judge him; for (CB)I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. 48 (CC)The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; (CD)the word that I have spoken will judge him (CE)on the last day. 49 For (CF)I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father (CG)who sent me has himself given me (CH)a commandment—what to say and what to speak. 50 And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me.”

Jesus Anointed at Bethany(A)
12 Six days before the Passover,(B) Jesus came to Bethany,(C) where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served,(D) while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. 3 Then Mary took about a pint[a] of pure nard, an expensive perfume;(E) she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair.(F) And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
4 But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him,(G) objected, 5 “Why wasn’t this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.[b]” 6 He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag,(H) he used to help himself to what was put into it.
7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of my burial.(I) 8 You will always have the poor among you,[c](J) but you will not always have me.”
9 Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.(K) 10 So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well, 11 for on account of him(L) many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and believing in him.(M)
Jesus Comes to Jerusalem as King(N)
12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem. 13 They took palm branches(O) and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna![d]”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”(Q)
14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written:
16 At first his disciples did not understand all this.(S) Only after Jesus was glorified(T) did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him.
17 Now the crowd that was with him(U) when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to spread the word. 18 Many people, because they had heard that he had performed this sign,(V) went out to meet him. 19 So the Pharisees said to one another, “See, this is getting us nowhere. Look how the whole world has gone after him!”(W)
Jesus Predicts His Death
20 Now there were some Greeks(X) among those who went up to worship at the festival. 21 They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida(Y) in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they said, “we would like to see Jesus.” 22 Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.
23 Jesus replied, “The hour(Z) has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.(AA) 24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies,(AB) it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it(AC) for eternal life.(AD) 26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be.(AE) My Father will honor the one who serves me.
27 “Now my soul is troubled,(AF) and what shall I say? ‘Father,(AG) save me from this hour’?(AH) No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. 28 Father, glorify your name!”
Then a voice came from heaven,(AI) “I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.” 29 The crowd that was there and heard it said it had thundered; others said an angel had spoken to him.
30 Jesus said, “This voice was for your benefit,(AJ) not mine. 31 Now is the time for judgment on this world;(AK) now the prince of this world(AL) will be driven out. 32 And I, when I am lifted up[g] from the earth,(AM) will draw all people to myself.”(AN) 33 He said this to show the kind of death he was going to die.(AO)
34 The crowd spoke up, “We have heard from the Law(AP) that the Messiah will remain forever,(AQ) so how can you say, ‘The Son of Man(AR) must be lifted up’?(AS) Who is this ‘Son of Man’?”
35 Then Jesus told them, “You are going to have the light(AT) just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light,(AU) before darkness overtakes you.(AV) Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. 36 Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may become children of light.”(AW) When he had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid himself from them.(AX)
Belief and Unbelief Among the Jews
37 Even after Jesus had performed so many signs(AY) in their presence, they still would not believe in him. 38 This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet:
39 For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere:
40 “He has blinded their eyes
and hardened their hearts,
so they can neither see with their eyes,
nor understand with their hearts,
nor turn—and I would heal them.”[i](BA)
41 Isaiah said this because he saw Jesus’ glory(BB) and spoke about him.(BC)
42 Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him.(BD) But because of the Pharisees(BE) they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue;(BF) 43 for they loved human praise(BG) more than praise from God.(BH)
44 Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me.(BI) 45 The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me.(BJ) 46 I have come into the world as a light,(BK) so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.
47 “If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.(BL) 48 There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them(BM) at the last day. 49 For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me(BN) to say all that I have spoken. 50 I know that his command leads to eternal life.(BO) So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say.”(BP)

Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Binuhusan ng Pabango si Jesus(A)
12 Anim na araw bago dumating ang Pista ng Paglampas ng Anghel, pumunta si Jesus sa Betania, kung saan nakatira si Lazarus na muli niyang binuhay. 2 Kaya naghanda sila roon ng hapunan para kay Jesus. Si Lazarus ay isa sa kasalo ni Jesus sa pagkain. Si Marta ang nagsilbi sa kanila. 3 Kumuha si Maria ng kalahating litro ng purong pabango na gawa sa halamang nardo na mamahaling pabango. Ibinuhos niya ito sa paa ni Jesus at pinunasan ng kanyang buhok. At humalimuyak ang pabango sa buong bahay. 4 Ang isa sa mga tagasunod ni Jesus na naroon ay si Judas Iscariote na magtatraydor sa kanya. Sinabi ni Judas, 5 “Isang taon na sweldo ang halaga ng pabangong iyan. Bakit hindi na lang iyan ipinagbili, at ibigay sa mahihirap ang pera?” 6 Sinabi niya ito, hindi dahil nagmamalasakit siya sa mga mahihirap kundi dahil isa siyang magnanakaw. Bilang tagapag-ingat ng pera nila, madalas niya itong kinukupitan. 7 Pero sinabi ni Jesus, “Hayaan mo siya. Ibinuhos niya ito sa katawan ko bilang paghahanda sa aking libing.[a] 8 Lagi nʼyong nakakasama ang mga mahihirap, pero akoʼy hindi nʼyo laging makakasama.”
Ang Planong Pagpatay kay Lazarus
9 Maraming Judio ang nakabalita na nasa Betania si Jesus. Kaya nagpuntahan sila roon, hindi lang dahil kay Jesus kundi upang makita rin si Lazarus na muli niyang binuhay. 10 Kaya binalak din ng mga namamahalang pari na ipapatay si Lazarus, 11 dahil siya ang dahilan kaya maraming Judio ang humihiwalay na sa kanila at sumasampalataya kay Jesus.
Ang Matagumpay na Pagpasok ni Jesus sa Jerusalem(B)
12 Kinabukasan, nabalitaan ng maraming tao na dumalo sa pista na papunta si Jesus sa Jerusalem. 13 Kaya kumuha sila ng mga palaspas at sinalubong si Jesus. Sumisigaw sila, “Purihin ang Dios! Pagpalain ang dumarating na ito sa pangalan ng Panginoon.[b] Pagpalain ang Hari ng Israel!” 14 Nakakita si Jesus ng isang batang asno at sinakyan niya ito, gaya ng nakasaad sa Kasulatan,
15 “Huwag kayong matakot, mga taga-Zion!
Makinig kayo! Paparating na ang inyong Hari
na nakasakay sa isang batang asno!”[c]
16 Hindi pa naiintindihan noon ng mga tagasunod ni Jesus ang ginawang iyon ng mga tao. Pero nang makabalik na si Jesus sa langit, saka lang nila naintindihan na iyon ang nakasaad sa Kasulatan.
17 Marami ang nakasaksi nang muling buhayin ni Jesus si Lazarus. At ipinamalita nila ang pangyayaring ito. 18 Kaya marami ang sumalubong kay Jesus, dahil nabalitaan nila ang ginawa niyang himala. 19 Dahil dito, nag-usap-usap ang mga Pariseo, “Tingnan ninyo, sumusunod na sa kanya ang lahat ng tao,[d] at wala tayong magawa!”
May mga Griegong Naghanap kay Jesus
20 May mga Griego ring pumunta sa Jerusalem upang sumamba sa Dios sa kapistahan. 21 Lumapit sila kay Felipe na taga-Betsaida sa probinsya ng Galilea. Sinabi nila sa kanya, “Gusto po sana naming makita si Jesus.” 22 Pinuntahan ni Felipe si Andres at sinabi sa kanya ang kahilingan ng mga Griego. Pagkatapos, pinuntahan nila si Jesus at ipinaalam ang kahilingan. 23 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Dumating na ang oras upang dakilain ako na Anak ng Tao. 24 Sinasabi ko sa inyo ang totoo, malibang mamatay ang isang butil ng trigong itinanim sa lupa, mananatili itong nag-iisa. Ngunit kung mamatay, tutubo ito at mamumunga nang marami. 25 Ang taong labis na nagpapahalaga sa kanyang buhay ay mawawalan nito, ngunit ang hindi nanghihinayang sa buhay niya sa mundong ito alang-alang sa akin ay magkakaroon ng buhay na walang hanggan. 26 Ang sinumang gustong maglingkod sa akin ay dapat sumunod sa akin, at kung nasaan ako naroon din dapat siya. Ang sinumang naglilingkod sa akin ay pararangalan ng Ama.”
Ipinahiwatig ni Jesus ang Kanyang Kamatayan
27 Sinabi pa ni Jesus, “Nababagabag ako ngayon. Sasabihin ko ba sa Ama na iligtas niya ako sa nalalapit na paghihirap? Hindi, dahil ito ang dahilan ng pagpunta ko rito.” 28 Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Jesus sa Ama, “Ama, ipakita nʼyo ang inyong kadakilaan.” Isang tinig mula sa langit ang sumagot, “Ipinakita ko na sa pamamagitan mo, at muli ko itong ipapakita.”
29 Nang marinig ng mga taong naroon ang tinig, sinabi nila, “Kumulog!” Pero sinabi naman ng iba, “Kinausap siya ng isang anghel.” 30 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Ang tinig na iyon ay ipinarinig hindi para sa akin kundi para sa kapakanan ninyo. 31 Dumating na ang paghatol sa mga tao sa mundo. Malulupig na si Satanas na siyang naghahari sa mundong ito. 32 At kapag itinaas na ako mula sa lupa, ilalapit ko ang lahat ng tao sa akin.” 33 (Sinabi ito ni Jesus upang ipahiwatig kung paano siya mamamatay.) 34 Sumagot ang mga tao sa kanya, “Nakasaad sa Kasulatan na ang Cristoʼy mabubuhay nang walang hanggan. Bakit mo sinasabing kailangang mamatay[e] ang Anak ng Tao? Sino ba ang Anak ng Tao na tinutukoy mo?” 35 Sumagot si Jesus, “Maikling panahon na lang ninyong makakasama ang ilaw. Kaya mamuhay kayo sa liwanag ng ilaw na ito habang narito pa, para hindi kayo abutan ng dilim. Sapagkat hindi alam ng naglalakad sa dilim kung saan siya papunta. 36 Kaya sumampalataya kayo sa akin na siyang ilaw ninyo habang narito pa ako, para maliwanagan ang isipan ninyo.”[f] Pagkasabi ni Jesus nito, umalis siya at nagtago sa kanila.
Ayaw Manampalataya ng mga Judio kay Jesus
37 Kahit na nakita ng mga Judio ang maraming himala na ginawa ni Jesus, hindi pa rin sila sumampalataya sa kanya. 38 Sa ganoon, natupad ang sinabi ni Propeta Isaias,
“Panginoon, sino ang naniwala sa aming mensahe?
Sino sa mga pinakitaan mo ng iyong kapangyarihan ang sumampalataya?”[g]
39 Sinabi pa ni Isaias na kaya ayaw nilang sumampalataya ay dahil:
40 “Binulag ng Dios ang kanilang mga mata upang hindi sila makakita,
at isinara niya ang kanilang mga isip[h] upang hindi sila makaunawa,
dahil baka manumbalik pa sila sa kanya, at pagalingin niya sila.”[i]
41 Sinabi ito ni Isaias dahil nakita niya ang kadakilaan ni Jesus, at nagsalita siya tungkol sa kanya.
42 Ganoon pa man, maraming pinuno ng mga Judio ang sumampalataya kay Jesus. Pero inilihim nila ang kanilang pananampalataya dahil takot silang hindi na tanggapin ng mga Pariseo sa mga sambahan. 43 Sapagkat mas ginusto pa nilang purihin sila ng tao kaysa ng Dios.
Ang Salita ni Jesus ang Hahatol sa mga Tao
44 Nagsalita si Jesus nang malakas: “Ang sumasampalataya sa akin ay hindi lang sa akin sumasampalataya kundi pati sa nagsugo sa akin. 45 At ang nakakita sa akin ay nakakita na rin sa nagsugo sa akin. 46 Naparito ako bilang ilaw ng mundo, upang ang sinumang sumampalataya sa akin ay hindi na manatili sa kadiliman. 47 Ang sinumang nakarinig ng aking mga aral pero hindi sumunod ay hahatulan, ngunit hindi ako ang hahatol sa kanya. Sapagkat hindi ako naparito sa mundo para hatulan ang mga tao kundi iligtas sila. 48 May ibang hahatol sa ayaw tumanggap sa akin at sa aking mga aral. Ang mga salitang ipinangaral ko ang hahatol sa kanila sa huling araw. 49 Sapagkat ang mga aral koʼy hindi galing sa sarili ko lang kundi galing sa Amang nagsugo sa akin. Siya ang nag-uutos kung ano ang sasabihin ko. 50 At alam ko na ang mga utos niya ay nagbibigay ng buhay na walang hanggan. Kaya kung ano ang ipinasasabi ng Ama, iyon lang ang sinasabi ko.”
