John 17

1 Jesus in hi thu teng a son zawkciang in, vantung ento a, Pa awng, a hun cing zo hi; na Tapa minthangsak in, tabang in na Tapa in zong nangma min hong thangsak tu hi:

When Jesus had ended this discourse, he said, lifting up his eyes to heaven, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee;

2 Tapa tung ah na piak theampo, Ama in tawntung nuntakna pia tu in mihing theampo tung ah thuneina na pia zo hi. (aiōnios g166)

as thou hast given him authority over all men, that he may bestow eternal life, on all those whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios g166)

3 Amate in nangma bek a thuman Pathian hi, ci le na sawlkhiat Jesus Christ heak sia tawntung nuntakna hi. (aiōnios g166)

Now this is the life eternal, to know thee the only true God, and Jesus, the Messiah, thy Apostle. (aiōnios g166)

4 Leitung ah na min ka thangsak zo hi: vawt tu in nong piak nasep ka seam zo hi.

I have glorified thee upon the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

5 Pa awng, tu in, leitung om ma in nangma taw ka neisa minthanna taw hong minthangsak tan.

And now, Father, glorify thou me in thy own presence, with that glory which I enjoyed with thee, before the world was.

6 Leitung mite sung pan nong piak mihing te tung ah na min kilangsak zo khi hi: amate sia nangma a, a hi uh a, keima nong piak te a hi uh hi; taciang amate in na thu zui uh hi.

I have made known thy name to the men whom those hast given me of the world. They were thine; and thou hast given them to me; and they have kept thy word.

7 Tu in, nangma in nong piak theampo te sia nangma tung pan hi, ci amate in he zo uh hi.

Whatsoever thou hast given me, they now know to have come from thee;

8 Banghangziam cile nangma in nong piak tu te amate ka pia zo hi; taciang amate in hong sang zo uh hi, taciang na kung pan in ka pusuak hi, ci le nangma in nong sawl hi, ci amate in um zo uh hi.

and that thou hast imparted to me the doctrine, which I have imparted to them. They have received it, knowing for certain, that I came forth from thee, and am commissioned by thee.

9 Amate atu in thu kong ngen hi: leitung mite atu in kong ngen bua hi, ahihang nangma i nong piak te atu thu kong ngen hi; banghangziam cile amate sia nangma a, a hihi.

It is for them that I pray. I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; because they are thine.

10 Ka nei theampo sia nangma a, hi a, na nei theampo sia keima a, a hihi; taciang amate sung ah keima min a thang hi.

And all mine are thine, and thine mine, and I am glorified in them.

11 Tu in keima sia leitung ah om nawn ngawl tu khi hi, ahihang hi te sia leitung ah om lai tu uh hi, taciang keima sia na kung ah hongpai tu khi hi. A Thiangtho ka Pa awng, kei tung ah nong piak sate sia, eite bang in pumkhat a hi thei natu in, na min suang in na keamcing in.

I continue no longer in the world; but these continue in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, preserve them in thy name, whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.

12 Amate kung leitung ah ka omlai in, amate na min taw ka keamcing hi: nangma i nong piak te sia, laithiangtho tangtungsak siatna i tapa simngawl; khatzong bosua ngawl in ka keamcing zo hi.

While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name; those whom thou hast given me, I have preserved. None of them in lost, except the son of perdition, as the scripture foretold.

13 Tu in na kung ah kongpai tu hi; amate in ka lungdamna sia mate sung ah a kicin thei natu in, hi thu te leitung ah ka son hi.

But now that I am coming to thee, I speak these things in the world, that their joy in me may be complete.

14 Amate na thu ka pia zo hi; taciang leitung mite in amate ensan uh hi, banghangziam cile keima sia leitung mi ka hi ngawl bangma in amate zong a hi bua uh hi.

I have delivered thy word to them, and the world hates them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

15 Amate leitung pan lato tu in kong ngen bua hi, ahihang mihing pha ngawl pa kung pan keamcing tu in kong ngen hi.

I do not pray thee to remove them out of the world, but to preserve them from evil.

16 Keima sia leitung mi ka hi ngawl bangma in, amate zong leitung mi a hi bua uh hi.

Of the world they are not, as I am not of the world.

17 Amate na thutak taw in thiangthosak in: na kammal sia thutak a hihi.

Consecrate them by the truth; thy word is the truth.

18 Keima leitung ah nong sawl bang in, amate zong keima in leitung ah ka sawl hi.

As thou hast made me thy Apostle to the world, I have made them my Apostles to the world.

19 Amate thutak taw in thianthosak ahi thei natu in, amate hang in keima le keima ka ki thiangthosak hi.

And I consecrate myself for them, that they may be consecrated through the truth.

20 Amate atu bek thu kong ngen bua hi, ahihang amate thuhilna taw in keima hong umte atu zong thu kong ngen hi;

Nor do I pray for these alone, but for those also who shall believe on me through their teaching;

21 Nangma in nong sawl hi, ci leitung mite in a up thei natu uh ahizong, amate theampo pumkhat hi tu in, ka Pa awng, nangma sia keima sung ah na om a, keima zong nangma sung ah ka om bangma in, amate zong i sung ah pumkhat a hi tu in, thu kong ngen hi.

that all may be one; that as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, they also may be one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me;

22 Nangma le keima sia pumkhat i hi bangma in amate zong pumkhat a sua thei natu in, nangma i nong piak minthanna sia amate ka pia zo hi:

and that thou gavest me the glory, which I have given them; that they may be one, as we are one;

23 Amate pumkhat sung ah a cialcing thei natu in, keima sia amate sung ah ka om a, taciang nangma sia ka sung ah na om hi; taciang nangma in nong sawl a, keima nong it bangma in amate zong na it hi, ci leitung mite in he tu uh hi.

I in them, and thou in me, that their union may be perfected; that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and that thou lovest them, as thou lovest me.

24 Pa awng, nangma in nong piaksa te ka omna mun ah om tu in le; nangma in nong piak ka minthanna sia amate in zong a mu thei natu ka dei hi: banghangziam cile nangma in leitung a ki bitphua ma in nong it zo hi.

Father, I would that where I shall be, those whom thou hast given me may be with me; that they may behold my glory, which thou gavest me, because thou lovedst me before the formation of the world.

25 Maw a thuman ka Pa, leitung mite in hong he ngawl hi: ahihang keima in kong he zo hi, taciang hite in zong nangma in nong sawl hi, ci a he zo uh hi.

Righteous Father, though the world knows not thee, I know thee; and these know that I have thy commission.

26 Na min sia amate tung ah ka tangko zo a, taciang tangko lai tu khi hi: tabang in nangma in keima nong itna sia amate sung ah om tu a, taciang keima zong amate sung ah ka om tu hi, ci hi.

And to them I have communicated, and will communicate thy name: that I being in them, they may share in the love with which thou lovest me.
