Yohana 16
1 “Nansalile yelei kuti nkaleka kukulupilila kwenu.
“I have said these things to you so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble.
2 Ŵandu chamminje ŵanyamwe mmajumba gao gakupopelela. Sooni chikaiche katema kanti jwalijose juchambulaje pasikati ja ŵanyamwe chaganisye kuti akwatyosyesya Akunnungu mbopesi.
They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.
3 Chantende yeleyo pakuŵa ngakwamanyilila Atati natamuno ngakuumanyilila uneji.
They will do these things because they have not known 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.
But I have told you these things so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
5 Nambo sambano ngwaula kwa ŵandumile une ŵala, ni ngapagwa namuno jumo jwenu jwakumusya kuti, ‘Nkwaula kwapi?’
But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
6 Pakuŵa nansalile yelei nsupwiche mmitima jenu.
But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
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 to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counselor won’t come to you. But if I go, 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.
When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;
9 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati sambi ligongo nganangulupilila une.
about sin, because they don’t believe in me;
10 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati kupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, ligongo ngwaula kwa Atati ŵangu ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni.
about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;
11 Ngakuumanyilila usyene nkati ŵandu kulamulikwa ni Akunnungu, ligongo Shetani jwakutawala chilambo chi amasile kulamulikwa.
about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.
12 “Ngwete yejinji yakunsalila, nambo sambano chinnepele kwipililila.
“I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.
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.
However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
14 Ŵelewo changusye une ligongo chachinsalila yeila ichinansalile une.
He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you.
15 Yose yalinayo Atati ŵangu ili yangu une, kwa ligongo lyo sasile kuti Mbumu jo chachinsalila ichinaasalile une.
All things that the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine and will declare it to you.
16 “Gasigele moŵa kanandi ni ŵanyamwe ngamuuwona sooni, ni pakumala moŵa kanandi, chimuuwone sooni!”
“A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”
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 his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father’?”
18 Nipele, ŵajendelechele kuusyana, “Ana malumbo gakwe chichi pakuŵecheta, ‘Gasigele moŵa kanandi?’ Ngatukuchimanyilila chakuchigamba cho.”
They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while’? We don’t know what he is saying.”
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?’
Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you inquire among yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will 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 certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will 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, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.
22 Nombe ŵanyamwe sambano nkusupuka, nambo pachinambone sooni chinsangalale mmitima jenu ni sangalala jo ngapagwa jwalijose juchakombole kujityosya kukwenu.
Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
23 “Lyele lyuŵa lyo ngamuusya chachili chose. Ngunsalila isyene, chachili chose chachimwaŵende Atati champe kwa liina lyangu.
“In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
24 Natamuno sambano nganimmende chachili chose kwa liina lyangu. Mmende ni ŵanyamwe chinchipata kuti sangalale jenu jimalile.
Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.
25 “Nansalile gelega kwa itagu. Nambo chijiiche ndaŵi jati ngamecheta ni ŵanyamwe sooni kwa itagu, nambo chinansalile pangasisa yankati Atati.
“I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
26 Lyuŵa lyo chinchiŵenda kwa liina lyangu, ni ngangunsalila kuti chisachilwe kummendela kwa Atati,
In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you that I will pray to 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 have believed that I came from God.
28 Uneji natyochele kwa Atati, ni kwika pachilambo, ni sambano nguchileka chilambo ni kuuja kwa Atati.”
I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
29 Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaasalile, “Nnole sambano nkuŵecheta pangasisa, ngankuŵecheta kwa itagu.
His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech.
30 Sambano tuimanyi kuti mmwe nkuimanyilila yose ni ngapagwa ligongo lya mundu jwalijose kummusya, chelecho ni chachikututenda tukulupilile kuti nkopochele kwa Akunnungu.”
Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”
31 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Ana sambano nkukulupilila?
Jesus answered them, “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 is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will 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!”
I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
