Yohana 16
1 Mi hla wayi ni yiwu ni ndu yi na kubu za na.
These things have I spoken unto you, that ye may not be offended:
2 Ba ju yi rju ni majanmiyan u iton ni ye, niwa indji ni ta hola yi vu ni to'o (wuya), ani ya ndi wawu si tie ndu Rji.
for they will excommunicate you: yea, the time is coming, that whosoever killeth you, will think that he offers an acceptable service to God.
3 Ba ti naki niwa ba na toh Ti'a ko Me na.
And these things will they do unto you; because they have not known the Father, nor me.
4 Mi si hla biyi ni yiwu, inde iton nita ye, waba ti'a, bika ri mren Mi na hla ni yiwu,” Mi na hla kpe biyi ni yiwu ri na rji ni mumla, niwa Mi he niyi.
But I have told you these things, that when the time cometh, ye may remember that I told you of them. Though I did not tell you of them at the beginning, because I was with you.
5 Zizan yi Mi si hi ni Indji wa a ton me'a, naki me ni mi mbi, ba wa a minye Me, u hi ntsen?
But now I am going away to Him that sent me, and yet none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going? but because I have said these things to you,
6 Ni wa Mi hla ikpi biyi ni yiwu, damuwa shu ni yiwu ni sron.
sorrow hath filled your heart.
7 Ime mi si hla njanji mu ni yiwu, abi ni yiwu ni ndu Mi hi kpamu, u Mi ta na hi kpamu na, wawu indji u sisron ana ye ni yi na, u Mi ta hi, u Mi ton ye niyi.
Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I should go away; for if I go not away, the comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you.
8 Ani ta ye, wawu Indji u nji si sron ye ani tsro gbungblu'a meme ti lahtre'a, nitu njanji ni tron me -
And when He comes, He will convince the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement:
9 nitu lahtre, nitu wa bana kpa nyeme ni Me na;
of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 nitu tsatsra, Mi hi ni Ti'a, u bina la tie bre to mena;
of righteousness, because I am going to my Father and ye shall see me no more;
11 nitu hukunci me niwa ba han hukunci ni ndji u nji gbungblu'a hukunci.
and of judgement, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 Ikpi gbugbuwu ba he wa Mi hla ni yiwu'a, u bina ya to zizan na.
I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Nitu ki, u Ibrji tsatsra u njanji aye'a, ani nji ni mi njanji wawu, niwa ana tre u tuma kankrji ma na, se ikpe wa awo, ani hla ki, ani hla ni yiwu ikpe wa ani tie.
But when the Spirit of truth is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He will not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that will He speak, and will shew you things to come.
14 Ani gbre Me san, nitu wa ani ban ikpi wa a u mu na hla ni yiwu.
He shall glorify me, for He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
15 Ikpe iwa Iti'a ahe ni wu ahi u mu. Nitu ki, Mi hla da ani ban kpi wa a hu mu na hla ni yiwu.
All that the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that He shall take of mine and shew it unto you.
16 Ni kogon vi ton, bina tie bre la to Me na, ni kogon vi nton fime ngari, bi la toh me.
A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while and ye shall see me, because I am going to the Father.
17 U bari ni mi almajere Ma, ba tre ndi, “Ahi ngyeyi mba Igu yi ni son hla nitawu, 'Ni vi nkpurju nton bina la toh Me na, u ni vi nkpurju nton ngari bi la toh me,' u, 'Nitu wa Mi hi ni Ti'a?'”
Some of his disciples therefore said one to another, What is the meaning of this that He saith to us, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me, and---because I am going to the Father?
18 Nitu ki ba tre ndi, “Ahi ngyeri wa asi tre'a, 'Ni vi nkpurju nton'a?' Kina to kpw wa asi tre nitu ma na.”
they said therefore, What is this little while that He speaks of? we do not understand what He means.
19 Yesu to ba si son Mye wu, na hla ni bawu ndi, “U bi kma ni mye kpa mbi Mu ikpe wa Mi si son hla andi, “Ni kogon vi nton fime u bina to me na, u ngari ni kogon vi nton fime bi la to Me?'
Now Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, and therefore said unto them, Are ye enquiring among each other about this, that I said, A little while and ye shall not see me, and again a little while and ye shall see me?
20 Njanji, njanji, Mi hla ni yiwu, bi yi ni mren, u gbungblu ni ngyiri, imre mbi ni shu ni yi nyu ni sron, u imre u yi mbi ani ka tie u ngyiri.
Verily I tell you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
21 Iwa ni to lo ngrji, ni nton wa a si yi nne nitu wa inton u ngrji ye. Inde a ngri vren yo ye, ana la bre rimren ilon Ma ngana, nitu wa a si ngyiri wa ba ngrji indji ni gbungblu'a.
A woman when she is in labor, hath sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she is delivered of the child, she thinks no more of the anguish, for joy, that a man is born into the world.
22 Zizan mba bi ri mre, Mi la to yi, u sron mbi ni ngyiri, u indrjori na ya ban ngyiri mbi'a rji ni yi na.
And ye therefore now have sorrow; but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy shall no one take from you.
23 Chachu ki, bina mye Me kperi na. Njanji, njanji, Mi si hla ni yiwu, ko ngyeri bi bre ni mi Nde Ti'a ni mi Nde Mu ani no yi.
And in that day ye shall ask me nothing: but I assure you, that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He will give it you.
24 Ye zizan me bi na bre kperi nimi nde Mu na. Bika bre, u bi kpa, niwa ingyiri mbi a shu.
Hitherto ye have asked for nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
25 Mi hla kpi biyi ni yiwu ni mi karin magana, inton ni ye wa Mina la hla kperi ni yiwu na ni mi karin magana na, Mi sran hla ni yiwu ni rira, nitu Ti'a wa ani karin magana.
These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but tell you with plainness concerning the Father.
26 Ni chahu ki, bu tre ni mi nde Mu u Mina hla yiwu ndi Mi tre ni Ti; a nitu mbi na.
In that day ye shall ask in my name; and I do not say that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
27 Niwa Iti ni son yi kima, niwa bu'a bi son Me, u bi kpa nyeme ndi Mi rji ni Ti'a.
For the Father himself loveth you; because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came from God: and I indeed came from the Father,
28 Mi rji ni Ti'a, ni ri ni gbungblu'a, ye zizan, ngari, Mi bri ni gbungblu'a ni kma ni hi ni Ti.”
and am come into the world: but now I am leaving the world again, and am going to the Father.
29 Almajere Ma ba tre ndi, “To mba, zizan u si tre kpe wheme mba, una ka yiyi na.
His disciples said unto Him, Now indeed Thou speakest plainly, and usest no parable.
30 Zizan ki to u to ko ngyeri, ana wa ndrjori ni la mye na. Ni nakima, ki kpanyeme ndi u rju rji ni Irji.
Now we are convinced that Thou knowest all things, and hast no need that any one should ask Thee: by this we believe that Thou camest forth from God.
31 Yesu a ka sa ni bawu ndi, “Bi kpa nyeme zizan?
Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
32 Bika to, inton ni ye, ee, inton ye wa ba vra yi ti nkankan, ko nha ni kma hi ni ko ma, bi ka me don ni grji Mu. Ko nakime Mi na he ni nkrji Mu na, Iti Mu ahe ni Me.
Behold, the time is coming, and is even now come, that ye shall be dispersed every one his own way, and shall leave me alone: but I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
33 Mi hla wayi ni yiwu ndi bi he ni me Mu ni fe si sron. Ni gbungblu'a ba ki ti yi je, bika kri gbangban, Mi kpaka ni gbungblu'a.
These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have trouble: but be of good courage, I have overcome the world.
