< Yohana 14 >
1 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nkapotekwa mmitima jenu. Mwakulupilile Akunnungu ni mungulupilile une ŵakwe.
“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.
2 Ku nyuumba ja Atati kwana yuumba yejinji, ngaikaŵe yeleyo, ngansalile. Sambano ngwaula kukunkolochesya liuto.
In my Father's house there are many rooms. If it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you.
3 Najaulaga ni kunkolochesya liuto, chingauje ni kunjigala, kuti pandili une, ni ŵanyamwe mbe pelepo.
So when I go, it is to prepare a place for you. I will come again and receive you to myself, so that where I am you also may be.
4 Kungwaula ko nkulimanyilila litala lyakwe.”
You know where I am going, and you know the way.”
5 Che Tomasi ŵambusisye, “Ambuje, ngatukumanyilila kunkwaula ko, ana tutukombole chinauli kulimanyilila litala lyakwe?”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where yoʋ are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Uneji ndili litala ni usyene ni umi usyene. Ngapagwa mundu jwakwaula kwa Atati pangapitila kwa uneji.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7 Iŵaga nkuumanyilila uneji, Atati ŵangu nombe mwamanyi. Chitandile sambano, mwamanyi, ni sooni mwaweni.”
If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Che Filipo ŵansalile, “Ambuje, ntulosye Atati, chelecho ni chitukuchisaka.”
Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
9 Che Yesu ŵansalile, “Che Filipo, ndemi ni ŵanyamwe moŵa gose ga, ngunnaŵe kuumanyilila? Mundu jwalijose jwamweni une, ŵaweni Atati. Ana kwachichi nkuti, ‘Ntulosye Atati?’
Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you for so long and still yoʋ do not know me, Philip? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father, so how can yoʋ say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Ana ngankukulupilila kuti uneji ndili mwa Atati, nombe Atati ali mwa uneji? Gelega maloŵe gingunsalila ga nganguŵecheta kwa ulamusi wangu nansyene, nambo Atati ŵakutama mwangu une akupanganya masengo gao.
Do yoʋ not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who abides in me does his works.
11 Nkusachilwa kukulupilila pinguti, uneji ndili mwa Atati nombe Atati ali mwa uneji. Naga ngaŵa yele, nkulupilile kwa ligongo lya masengo gingugapanganya go.
Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; but if not, believe me because of the works themselves.
12 Ngunsalila isyene, jwakungulupilila uneji chagapanganye masengo gingugapanganya une. Elo, chagapanganye namose masengo gamakulungwa kupunda agaga, ligongo uneji ngwaula kwa Atati.
Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do. He will even do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.
13 Ni ŵanyamwe mwaŵendaga chachilichose mu liina lyangu chinampanganyichisye, kuti Atati apate ukulu kwa litala lya Mwana.
Whatever you ask in my name I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Mwamendaga chachilichose kwa ukombole wa liina lyangu, chinampanganyichisye.
If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
15 “Mwanonyelaga uneji, chingajitichisye malajisyo gangu.
“If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 Uneji chinaachondelele Atati nombewo chachimpanga Nkamusi jwine, jwelejo chatame ni ŵanyamwe moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn )
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper to abide with you forever— (aiōn )
17 Jwelejo ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jwakutusalila ngani sya usyene nkati Akunnungu. Ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pano ngaakombola kumpochela jwelejo pakuŵa ngakukombola kumbona atamuno kummanyilila. Nambo ŵanyamwe nkummanyilila ligongo akutama ni ŵanyamwe ni sooni ali nkati mwenu.
the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see him or know him. But you know him, because he abides with you and will be in you.
18 “Pachindyoche nginanneka jika mpela ŵandu ŵakulekwa, nambo chinjiika sooni kukwenu.
“I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming back to you.
19 Gasigele moŵa kanandi ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pano ngaawona uneji sooni, nambo ŵanyamwe chimuuwone. Pakuŵa uneji ngwete umi, nombe ŵanyamwe chinkole umi.
Yet a little while and the world will see me no longer, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
20 Lyuŵa lyo pachiliiche chinchimanyilila kuti uneji ndili mwa Atati ŵangu, nombe ŵanyamwe ndi mwangu une, ni uneji ndili mwa ŵanyamwe.
On that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
21 Jwapochele malajisyo gangu ni kugatendekanya, jwelejo ni jwakuunonyela une. Nombe jwakuunonyela une chanonyelwe ni Atati ŵangu ni uneji chinjinnonyela ni kulimanyukusya kwa jwelejo.”
Whoever has my commandments and keeps them is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.”
22 Che Yuda, jwanganaŵa Isikaliote, ŵausisye, “Ambuje, ana chiikomboleche chinauli nlimanyisye kukwetu pe ni ngaŵa kwa ŵandu ŵa chilambo chose?”
Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that yoʋ are about to manifest yoʋrself to us and not to the world?”
23 Che Yesu ŵanjanjile, “Mundu jwalijose anonyelaga une chagakamulisye majiganyo gangu, ni Atati ŵangu chanonyelwe ni mundu jo, une ni Atati ŵangu chituiche kukuŵika ndamo kukwakwe.
Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 Mundu jwangakuunonyela une ngakugajitichisya majiganyo gangu. Majiganyo ginkugapilikana go ngaŵa gangu, nambo gakutyochela kwa Atati ŵandumile.
Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. The word that you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
25 “Ayiyi nansalile ndili chiŵela pamo ni ŵanyamwe,
“I have said these things to you while abiding with you.
26 nambo nkamusi jo, jwelejo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu juchalajiswe ni Atati ŵangu kwa liina lyangu, chachinjiganya indu yose ni kunkumbusya yose inansalile.”
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything and remind you of everything I have told you.
27 “Ngunlechelanga chitendewele, chitendewele changu ngumpanga. Ngangumpanga ŵanyamwe mpela ila ŵandu ŵa pachilambo iyakuti pakupanganya. Nkapotekwa mmitima jenu, natamuno nkajogopa.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
28 Ana ngati mwapilikene njinsalilaga kuti, ‘Ngwaula, nipele chinjimmujilila.’ Nkaanonyele nkasangalele ligongo ngwaula kwa Atati ŵangu, pakuŵa ŵelewo ali ŵakulungwa kumbunda une.
You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced that I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ because my Father is greater than I am.
29 Nansalile gelega sambano gakanaŵe kopochela, kuti pachigakopochele po nkulupilile.
I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen, you may believe.
30 Nguuŵecheta sooni maloŵe gamajinji ni ŵanyamwe, pakuŵa Shetani, chilongola jwa chilambo chi akwika. Nambo nganakola machili kukwangu,
I will not talk with you much longer, for the ruler of the world is coming, but he has no power over me.
31 nambo ŵandu ŵa pachilambo amanyilile kuti ngwanonyela Atati. Kwa ligongo lyo ngupanganya yailiyose mpela Atati iŵatite pakuulajisya. Njimanje tutyoche pelepa!
Rather, I do just as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.
