Yohana 16
1 “Nansalile yelei kuti nkaleka kukulupilila kwenu.
These things I tell you, that you may not be discouraged.
2 Ŵandu chamminje ŵanyamwe mmajumba gao gakupopelela. Sooni chikaiche katema kanti jwalijose juchambulaje pasikati ja ŵanyamwe chaganisye kuti akwatyosyesya Akunnungu mbopesi.
They will expel you from the synagogue; nay, the time is coming, when, whosoever kills you, will think he offers sacrifice to God.
3 Chantende yeleyo pakuŵa ngakwamanyilila Atati natamuno ngakuumanyilila uneji.
And these things they will do, because they know not the Father nor me.
4 Nambo, nansalile yelei kuti pachikaiche katema ka kukopochela nkumbuchile kuti nansalile. “Nganinansalila yelei kutyochela kundanda pakuŵa naliji pamo ni ŵanyamwe.
Of these things I warn you now, that when the time shall come, you may remember that I mentioned them to you. I did not, indeed, mention them at the beginning, because I was with you myself.
5 Nambo sambano ngwaula kwa ŵandumile une ŵala, ni ngapagwa namuno jumo jwenu jwakumusya kuti, ‘Nkwaula kwapi?’
And now I go away to him who sent me; yet none of you ask me, Whither do you go?
6 Pakuŵa nansalile yelei nsupwiche mmitima jenu.
But because of those things which I have foretold you, you are overwhelmed with grief.
7 Nambo ngunsalila isyene, kwa liwamba lyenu mmbaya uneji nyaule, pakuŵa iŵaga ngunyaula, nkamusi jo ngaika kukwenu. Nambo najaulaga, chingantume kukwenu.
Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; it is for your good that I depart; for if I do not depart, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go away, I will send him to you.
8 Nombewo pachaiche, chachamanyisya ŵandu ŵa pachilambo chi kuti ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati sambi ni nkati kupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu ni nkati ŵandu kulamulikwa ni Akunnungu.
And when he is come, he will convince the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment:
9 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati sambi ligongo nganangulupilila une.
concerning sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati kupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, ligongo ngwaula kwa Atati ŵangu ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni.
concerning righteousness because I go to my Father, and you see me no longer;
11 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati ŵandu kulamulikwa ni Akunnungu, ligongo Shetani jwakutawala chilambo chi amasile kulamulikwa.
concerning judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 “Ngwete yejinji yakunsalila, nambo sambano chinnepele kwipililila.
I have many things still to tell you, but you can not yet bear them.
13 Nambo pachaiche Mbumu jwa Akunnungu juchansalile usyene nkati Akunnungu, chachinlongosya mu usyene wose. Ngaasala kwa ulamusi wakwe nsyene nambo chachisala ichaipilikane kutyochela kwa Atati ni kummanyisya ichiiche.
But when the Spirit of Truth is come, he will conduct you into all the truth: for his words will not proceed from himself: but whatsoever he shall have heard, he will speak, and show you things to come.
14 Ŵelewo changusye une ligongo chachinsalila yeila ichinansalile une.
He will glorify me: for he will take of mine and communicate to you.
15 Yose yalinayo Atati ŵangu ili yangu une, kwa ligongo lyo sasile kuti Mbumu jo chachinsalila ichinaasalile une.
Whatsoever is the Father's, is mine; therefore, I say that he will take of mine to communicate to you.
16 “Gasigele moŵa kanandi ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni, ni pakumala moŵa kanandi, chimuuwone sooni!”
A little while you shall not see me; a little while after, you shall see me; because I go to the Father.
17 Pelepo ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵampepe ŵausyene, “Malumbo gakwe chichi pakutusalila, ‘Gasigele moŵa kanandi ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni, ni pakumala moŵa kanandi, chimuuwone sooni?’ Ni sooni ŵatite, ‘Pakuŵa ngwaula kwa Atati ŵangu!’”
Some of the disciples said among themselves, What does he mean by this; a little while you shall not see me; a little while after, you shall see me; because I go to the Father?
18 Nipele, ŵajendelechele kuusyana, “Ana malumbo gakwe chichi pakuŵecheta, ‘Gasigele moŵa kanandi?’ Ngatukuchimanyilila chakuchigamba cho.”
What means this little while, of which he speaks? We do not comprehend it.
19 Che Yesu ŵaimanyi kuti ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵasachile kwausya yankati yeleyo, nipele ŵaasalile, “Ana nkuusyana nkati yeila imechete kuti, ‘Gasigele moŵa kanandi ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni, ni pakumala moŵa kanandi, chimuuwone sooni?’
Jesus perceiving that they were desirous to ask him, said to them, Do you inquire among yourselves about this that I said, A little while you shall not see me; a little while after, you shall see me?
20 Ngunsalila isyene, ŵanyamwe chinlile ni kulila kwa malumbo, nambo ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pano chasangalale. Ŵanyamwe chinsupuche nambo kusupuka kwenu chikugalauche kusangalala.
Most assuredly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice: you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
21 Katema ka kuligopola jwankongwe chikwasimana chilungusi ligongo katema kakwe ka kupeteka kaiche, nambo aligopolaga mwanache ngakukumbuchilila kupeteka kula, nambo akusangalala pakuŵa apagwile mwanache mchilambo.
A woman in travail has sorrow, because her hour is come. But when her son is born, she remembers her anguish no longer; for joy that she has brought a man into the world.
22 Nombe ŵanyamwe sambano nkusupuka, nambo pachinambone sooni chinsangalale mmitima jenu ni sangalala jo ngapagwa jwalijose juchakombole kujityosya kukwenu.
So, you, at present, are in grief; but I will visit you again, and your hearts shall be joyful, and none shall rob you of your joy.
23 “Lyele lyuŵa lyo ngamuusya chachili chose. Ngunsalila isyene, chachili chose chachimwaŵende Atati champe kwa liina lyangu.
On that day, you will put no questions to me. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatsoever you shall ask the Father, in my name, he will give you.
24 Natamuno sambano nganimmende chachili chose kwa liina lyangu. Mmende ni ŵanyamwe chinchipata kuti sangalale jenu jimalile.
Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be complete.
25 “Nansalile gelega kwa itagu. Nambo chijiiche ndaŵi jati ngamecheta ni ŵanyamwe sooni kwa itagu, nambo chinansalile pangasisa yankati Atati.
These things I have spoken to you in figures: the time approaches when I shall no more discourse to you in figures, but instruct you plainly concerning the Father.
26 Lyuŵa lyo chinchiŵenda kwa liina lyangu, ni ngangunsalila kuti chisachilwe kummendela kwa Atati,
The you will ask in my name, and I say not, that I will entreat the Father for you:
27 pakuŵa Atati asyene akunnonyela ŵanyamwe. Akunnonyela ŵanyamwe ligongo ŵanyamwe muunonyele uneji, ni kukulupilila kuti uneji natyochele kwa Akunnungu.
for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and believed that I came from God.
28 Uneji natyochele kwa Atati, ni kwika pachilambo, ni sambano nguchileka chilambo ni kuuja kwa Atati.”
From the presence of the Father I cam into the world. Again, I leave the world, and return to the Father.
29 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaasalile, “Nnole sambano nkuŵecheta pangasisa, ngankuŵecheta kwa itagu.
His disciples replied, Now, indeed, you speak plainly, and without a figure.
30 Sambano tuimanyi kuti mmwe nkuimanyilila yose ni ngapagwa ligongo lya mundu jwalijose kummusya, chelecho ni chachikututenda tukulupilile kuti nkopochele kwa Akunnungu.”
Now we are convinced that you know all things, and need not that any should put questions to you. By this we believe that you came forth from God.
31 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana sambano nkukulupilila?
Jesus answered, Do you now believe?
32 Nnole lyuŵa likwika, sooni liiche lyati chimpwilingane jwalijose kumangwakwe, ni kuuneka jika. Nambo uneji nguuŵa jika, pakuŵa Atati ali pamo ni une.
Behold, the time comes, or rather is come, when you shall disperse, every one to his own, and shall leave me alone; yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
33 Nansalile gelega kuti nlumbikane ni uneji ni kukola chitendewele. Mchilambo chinsauche, nambo muusimane ntima! Uneji nachipundile chilambo!”
These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage! I have overcome the world.
