Johan 15
1 Kai taw misur kung tang tang na awm nyng saw, ka Pa taw dum ak takung na awm hy.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
2 Kai awh ak thaih amak qah a baaikhqi boeih ce hlek hy, kai awh ak thaih ak qahkhqi boeih cetaw, a qahnaak khqoet aham, a baai ak changkhqi ce hlyn pehy.
Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away: and every branch that bears fruit, he purges it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
3 Nami venawh kak kqawn awi ak caming nangmih taw ciim hawh uhyk ti.
Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Kai awh awm poe lah uh, nangmih awh awm poe lawt kawng nyng. A baai ce a kungawh ama awm awhtaw amah awh amang qah thai amyihna, nangmih awm kai awh amna mi awm awhtaw am qah thai kawm uk ti.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can you, except you abide in me.
5 Kai taw misur kung na awm nyng; nangmih taw a baaikhqi na awm uhyk ti. U awm kai awh awm poe nawh anih awh kai awm ka awm awhtaw, ak thaih khawzah qah kaw; kai am kaa taw na mimah poek awh ikawm am sai thai kawm uk ti.
I am the vine, you are the branches: He that stays in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing.
6 Uawm kaiawh ama awm awhtaw, anih cetaw a baai amyihna khawngna awm kawmsaw, koh kawmsaw, maiawh phum kawm usaw mai ing ui kaw.
If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 Kaiawh awm unawh kak awikhqi ve nangmih awh a awm awhtaw, nami ngaihkhqi boeih ce thoeh lah uh, nami ham sei peekna awm kaw.
If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done to you.
8 Ak thaih khawzah qah unawh ka hubatna nami awmnaak ak caming Pa ce zoeksangnaakna awm hy.
Herein is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciples.
9 Pa ing kai ani lungnaak amyihna, nangmih ce ni lungnak khqi lawt nyng. Kai a lungnaak awh awm poe lah uh.
As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue you in my love.
10 Kak awipeekkhqi ve naming ngai awhtaw, kai ing Pa ak awipeekkhqi ngai nyng saw a lungnaak awh ka awm poe lawt amyihna, kai a lungnaak awh awm poe lawt kawm uk ti.
If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
11 Nangmih awh ka zeelnaak ce awm nawh nangmih a zeelnaak ce a soepnaak aham, ve ve ka nik kqawn peek khqi.
These things have I spoken to you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
12 Kai ak awipeek taw ve ni: kai ing ka ni lungnaak khqi amyihna nangmih pynoet ingkaw pynoet lungqu na lah uh.
This is my commandment, That you love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Thlang ing a pyikhqi hamna a hqingnaak dy a peek lungnaak anglakawh ak bau lungnaak am awm voel hy.
Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 Kak awipeek ve nami sai awhtaw, nangmih taw kai a pyikhqi na awm uhyk ti.
You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.
15 Tyihzoeihkhqi amni tinak khqi voel qoe kawng, tyihzawih ingtaw a boeipa a bibi ce am sim hy. Cedawngawh kai ing ka pyikhqi ni tinak khqi hawh nyng, kawtih ka Pa a venawh dang law sak hawh nyng.
From now on I call you not servants; for the servant knows not what his lord does: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known to you.
16 Nangmih ing kai amnik tyk uhyk ti, kai ing ni nangmih ka nik tyk khqi, cet u tiksaw – a poepana ak cak ak thaih nami qahnaak ahamni caksak khqi nyng. Cawh nangmih ing kai ang ming ing nami thoeh saqui ce Pa ing ni pek khqi bit kaw.
You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
17 Ve ve kai ak awipek ni: pynoet ingkaw pynoet lung qu na lah uh.
These things I command you, that you love one another.
18 Khawmdek ing nangmih ce ani sawhnaak khqi awhtaw, kai ni lammana ani sawhnaak tice na mik kawk khuiawh sim uh.
If the world hate you, you know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 Khawmdek a koe na nami awm mantaw, a koe na nami awm a dawngawh, ni lungnak khqi kaw. Cehlai khawmdek a koe na am awm uhyk ti, khawmdek awhkawng ka nik tyh khqi na awm utik saw khawmdek ing nangmih ce ni sawhnaak khqi hy.
If you were of the world, the world would love his own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
20 Nangmih a venawh kak kqawn law awi ce sim uh; ‘A boei anglakawh tyihzawih am bau hy,’ a ti ce. Cekkhqi ing kai a mini thenaak awhtaw, nangmih awm ni thekhanak khqi kaw. Kai a cawngpyinaak ami hquut awhtaw, nangmih a cawngpyi naak awm hquut lawt kawm uh.
Remember the word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
21 Kai ang ming awh cemyihna nangmih ce ni thekha nak khqi kaw, kawtih a mingmih ing kai anik tyikung ce am sim uhy.
But all these things will they do to you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me.
22 Cekkhqi venna am cet nyng saw ve ak awi ve am kak kqawn peek mai mantaw, am thawlh hlai voei uh. Cehlai, tuh taw a thawlhnaak awh loet na am awm voel hy.
If I had not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.
23 Kai anik sawhnaak thlang taw, ka Pa awm ak sawhnaak thlang na awm hy.
He that hates me hates my Father also.
24 U ingawm ama sai khawi ce kai ingawm am ka sai mai mantaw, am thawlh hlai voei uh. Cehlai kawpoek kyi ik-oeih ak saikhqi ce ami huh awh awm, kai ingkaw ka Pa ve ni sawh na uhy.
If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
25 Cehlai ningnih a anaa awi awh a qee amyihna, ‘Ikaw kawng am mai awh kai ni sawh na uhy,’ tice a soepnaak ham ni.
But this comes to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
26 Pa a venawh kawng nangmih a venawh ka tyih hly kawi, ngaihqep sakkung, Pa a venawh kawng ak cawn law awitak Myihla ce a law awh, anih ing kai akawng ce ni sim sak khqi kaw.
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me:
27 Nangmih awm ak cyk ca awhkawng kai a venawh nami awm poe a dawngawh, kai akawng ce thlang sim sak lawt kawm uk ti.
And you also shall bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning.
