Joni 14
1 “Myoyo yenu kitapengi. Musyome muli Leza, musyome amulindime.
“Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
2 Mun'anda yaTaata mwaali makkalilo miingi. Nikutalibbobo tendalikunoomwaambila pe, lino ndiya kukumubambila busena.
In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.
3 Na ndiinka kuyomubambila busena ndiyoboola kuzomutola, kuti ooko nkwebede mukabeko anywebo.
If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.
4 Muliizi inzila yakoko nkwenjobuya.”
You know where I go, and you know the way.”
5 Tomasi wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, tatukwizi pe nkoyobuya, tuliiziba biyei nzila?”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6 Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Ndime nzila, bwini, abuumi; tawo pe uuza kuli Taata natiinda mulindime.
Yeshua said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
7 Nansyo mulindizi, nimumwizi Taata alakwe. Kuzwa sunu mwamuziba alimwi mwamubona.”
If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
8 Filipi wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, tutondeezya Taata, aawo kunoli kwazuzikizigwa kulindiswe.”
Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
9 Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Ndakali aandinywe kwachiindi chilamfu alimwi tamunaa kundiziba, Filipi? Ooyo wandibona wabona Taata. Kujana ulaamba biyeni kuti, “Tutondeezye Taata?'
Yeshua said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Tondisyomi na kuti ndili muli Taata alimwi Taata uli muli ndime? Majwi ngindamwaambila nywe nsyaawambi kuzwa munguzu zyangu, pesi Taata upona mulindime ulikuchita mulimu wakwe.
Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
11 Mundisyome kuti ndili muli Taata, akuti Taata uli mulindime, nikuba kuti usyome akaambo kamilimu lwayo.
Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
12 Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila, ooyo uusyoma mulindime uyoochita milimu njechita, alimwi uyoochita milimu mipati kwiinda eeyi nkaambo ndiya kuli Taata.
Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.
13 Kufumbwa nchimuyookumbila muzina lyangu, ndiyomuchitila kuchitila kuti Taata akabe aabulemu mu Mwana.
Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Na mwakumbila kufumbwa muzina lyangu, ndiyomuchitila.
If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
15 Na mwandiyanda muyoobamba milawu yangu,
If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 alimwi ndiyookomba kuli Taata alimwi uyomupa uumbi mugwasyi kuchitila kuti akabe aandinywe kusikila kukabe kutamani - (aiōn g165)
I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever: (aiōn g165)
17 Muuya wakasimpe. Ooyo nyika ngwitakabule kumutambula pe nkaambo timubwene pe na kumuziba. Pesi mulimwizi, alimwi ukkala andinywe alimwi uli mulindinywe.
the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
18 Nsikoyoomusiya amulike, ndiyooboola kulindinywe.
I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
19 Biyo kwachiindi chifwifwialimwi nyika tikozondibona lubo me, pesi muzondibona. Akaambo kakuti ndilapona, andinywe munoyopona.
Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.
20 Mubuzuba oobo muyoziba kuti ndili muli Taata, akuti muli mulindime, akuti ndili mulindinywe.
In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
21 Ooyo uli amilawu yangu akwiibamba nguwe undiyanda, alimwi ooyo undiyanda uyooyandwa aTaata wangu, alimwi ndiyomuyanda akulitondeezya kulinguwe.”
One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
22 Judas (pe pe Sikkaliyoti) wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, nkaambonzi noyolitondezya kulindiswe notayolitondeezyi kunyika?”
Judah (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23 Jesu wakasandaula alimwi wati kulinguwe, “Na kuli uumwi undiyanda, uyoobamba majwi aangu. Taata ulamuyanda alimwi tuyosika kulinguwe alimwi tuyoyaka muunzi anguwe.
Yeshua answered him, “If a man 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 Ooyo utandiyandi mebo takwe nabamba majwi aangu. Ijwi ndimumvwa talizwi kulindime pesi kuli Taata wakandituma.
He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
25 Ndaamba zintu eezi kulindinywe kuchiindi nkechipona andinywe.
“I have said these things to you while still living with you.
26 Nekubaboobo, Mugwasyi - Muuya Uusalala ooyo Taata ngwayootuma kwiindila muzina lyangu - uyoomuyiisya zyoonse akumuyezya zyoonse nzindakamwaambila nywe.
But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
27 Ndamusiila luumuno; ndamupa luumuno lwangu. Tendamupa pe mbuli nyika mbwiipa. Myoyo yanu itapengi, alimwi mutapengi.
Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
28 Mwakamvwa eezyo nzindakaamba kulindinywe; Ndiyobweenda alimwi nzooboola lubo kulindinywe. 'Na mwalikundiyanda, mwalikubotelwa nkaambo ndiya kuli Taata, nkaambo Taata mupati kwiinda ndime.
You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.
29 Lino ndamwaambila kazitanaachitikana kuchitila kut, nizyazochitika, muzosyoma.
Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
30 Nsikoyoowambula twiingi andinywe, nkaambommweendelezi wanyika eeyi uyobuza. Takwe manguzu pe aatala andime,
I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
31 pesi mukuti inyika izibe kuti ndilamuyanda Taata, ndilachita mbubo mbuli Taata mbaakandilayilila mebo. Ngatukanyampuke alimwi tukeende kuzwa aano.”
But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.
