Yohana 14
1 Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Nkapotekwa mmitima jenu. Mwakulupilile Akunnungu ni mungulupilile une ŵakwe.
Do not let 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 Home there are many dwellings. If it had not been so, I should have told you, for I am going to prepare a place for you.
3 Najaulaga ni kunkolochesya liuto, chingauje ni kunjigala, kuti pandili une, ni ŵanyamwe mbe pelepo.
And, since I go and prepare a place for you, I shall return and take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am;
4 Kungwaula ko nkulimanyilila litala lyakwe.”
and you know the way to the place where I am going.”
5 Che Tomasi ŵambusisye, “Ambuje, ngatukumanyilila kunkwaula ko, ana tutukombole chinauli kulimanyilila litala lyakwe?”
“We do not know where you are going, Master,” said Thomas; “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 answered: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life; no one ever comes to the Father except through me.
7 Iŵaga nkuumanyilila uneji, Atati ŵangu nombe mwamanyi. Chitandile sambano, mwamanyi, ni sooni mwaweni.”
If you had recognised me, you would have known my Father also; for the future you will recognise him, indeed you have already seen him.”
8 Che Filipo ŵansalile, “Ambuje, ntulosye Atati, chelecho ni chitukuchisaka.”
“Master, show us the Father,” said Philip, “and we shall be satisfied.”
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?’
“Have I been all this time among you,” said Jesus, “and yet you, Philip, have not recognised me? He who has seen me has seen the Father, how can you say, then, ‘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 not you believe that I am in union with the Father, and the Father with me? In giving you my teaching I am not speaking on my own authority; but the Father himself, always in union with me, does his own work.
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,” he said to them all, “when I say that I am in union with the Father and the Father with me, or else believe me on account of the work itself.
12 Ngunsalila isyene, jwakungulupilila uneji chagapanganye masengo gingugapanganya une. Elo, chagapanganye namose masengo gamakulungwa kupunda agaga, ligongo uneji ngwaula kwa Atati.
In truth I tell you, he who believes in me will himself do the work that I am doing; and he will do greater work still, because I am going to the 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, that the Father may be honoured in the Son.
14 Mwamendaga chachilichose kwa ukombole wa liina lyangu, chinampanganyichisye.
If you ask anything, in my Name, I will do it.
15 “Mwanonyelaga uneji, chingajitichisye malajisyo gangu.
If you love me, you will lay my commands to heart,
16 Uneji chinaachondelele Atati nombewo chachimpanga Nkamusi jwine, jwelejo chatame ni ŵanyamwe moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn g165)
and I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you always — the Spirit of Truth. (aiōn g165)
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 world cannot receive this Spirit, because it does not see him or recognise him, but you recognise him, because he is always with you, and is within you.
18 “Pachindyoche nginanneka jika mpela ŵandu ŵakulekwa, nambo chinjiika sooni kukwenu.
I will not leave you bereaved; I will come to you.
19 Gasigele moŵa kanandi ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pano ngaawona uneji sooni, nambo ŵanyamwe chimuuwone. Pakuŵa uneji ngwete umi, nombe ŵanyamwe chinkole umi.
In a little while the world will see me no more, but you will still see me; because I am living, you will be living also.
20 Lyuŵa lyo pachiliiche chinchimanyilila kuti uneji ndili mwa Atati ŵangu, nombe ŵanyamwe ndi mwangu une, ni uneji ndili mwa ŵanyamwe.
At that time you will recognise that I am in union with the Father, and you with me, and I with 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.”
It is he who has my commands and lays them to heart that loves me; and he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
22 Che Yuda, jwanganaŵa Isikaliote, ŵausisye, “Ambuje, ana chiikomboleche chinauli nlimanyisye kukwetu pe ni ngaŵa kwa ŵandu ŵa chilambo chose?”
“What has happened, Master,” said Judas (not Judas Iscariot), “that you are going to reveal yourself 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.
“Whoever loves me,” Jesus answered, “will lay my Message to heart; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.
24 Mundu jwangakuunonyela une ngakugajitichisya majiganyo gangu. Majiganyo ginkugapilikana go ngaŵa gangu, nambo gakutyochela kwa Atati ŵandumile.
He who does not love me will not lay my Message to heart; and the Message to which you are listening is not my own, but that of the Father who sent me.
25 “Ayiyi nansalile ndili chiŵela pamo ni ŵanyamwe,
I have told you all this while still 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 — he will teach you all things, and will recall to your minds all that I have said to you.
27 “Ngunlechelanga chitendewele, chitendewele changu ngumpanga. Ngangumpanga ŵanyamwe mpela ila ŵandu ŵa pachilambo iyakuti pakupanganya. Nkapotekwa mmitima jenu, natamuno nkajogopa.
Peace be with you! My own peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, or dismayed.
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 that I was going away and would return to you. Had you loved me, you would have been glad that I was going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I.
29 Nansalile gelega sambano gakanaŵe kopochela, kuti pachigakopochele po nkulupilile.
And this I have told you now before it happens, that, when it does happen, you may still believe in me.
30 Nguuŵecheta sooni maloŵe gamajinji ni ŵanyamwe, pakuŵa Shetani, chilongola jwa chilambo chi akwika. Nambo nganakola machili kukwangu,
I shall not talk with you much more, for the Spirit that is ruling the world is coming. He has nothing in common with me;
31 nambo ŵandu ŵa pachilambo amanyilile kuti ngwanonyela Atati. Kwa ligongo lyo ngupanganya yailiyose mpela Atati iŵatite pakuulajisya. Njimanje tutyoche pelepa!
but he is coming that the world may see that I love the Father, and that I do as the Father commanded me. Come, let us be going.
