John 14
1 “Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe in me also.
Yesu alobaki: — Tika ete mitema na bino etungisama te! Bondima Nzambe mpe bondima Ngai.
2 In my Father’s house, there are many dwelling places. If there were not, I would have told you. For I go to prepare a place for you.
Kati na ndako ya Tata na Ngai, bisika ezali mingi. Soki ezalaki bongo te, boni, nalingaki koyebisa bino ete nakeyi kuna mpo na kobongisela bino esika?
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will return again, and then I will take you to myself, so that where I am, you also may be.
Mpe, sima na Ngai kobongisa yango, nakozonga mpe nakozwa bino mpo ete bozala elongo na Ngai; mpe mpo ete bino mpe bozala na esika oyo Ngai nazali.
4 And you know where I am going. And you know the way.”
Boyebi nzela ya esika oyo nazali kokende.
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
Toma alobaki na Yesu: — Te, Nkolo! Toyebi te esika oyo ozali kokende; bongo tokoyeba nzela na yango ndenge nini?
6 Jesus said to him: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Ngai, nazali nzela, solo mpe bomoi. Moto moko te akoki koya epai ya Tata, soki na nzela na Ngai te.
7 If you had known me, certainly you would also have known my Father. And from now on, you shall know him, and you have seen him.”
Soki boyebaki Ngai, bolingaki mpe koyeba Tata na Ngai; mpe kobanda sik’oyo, boyebi Ye mpe bomoni Ye.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, reveal the Father to us, and it is enough for us.”
Filipo alobaki na Yesu: — Nkolo, lakisa biso Tata; tozali na posa ya eloko mosusu te.
9 Jesus said to him: “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me? Philip, whoever sees me, also sees the Father. How can you say, ‘Reveal the Father to us?’
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Ah Filipo! Kala nyonso oyo nazalaka elongo na bino, oyebaka na yo kaka Ngai te? Moto oyo amoni Ngai amoni Tata. Bongo ndenge nini olobi: « Lakisa biso Tata? »
10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I am speaking to you, I do not speak from myself. But the Father abiding in me, he does these works.
Ondimi te ete nazali kati na Tata, mpe ete Tata azali kati na Ngai? Maloba oyo nayebisaka bino, nalobaka yango te na bokonzi na Ngai moko; ezali Tata oyo azali kati na Ngai nde azali kokokisa bongo misala na Ye.
11 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?
Bondima Ngai: nazali kati na Tata, mpe Tata azali kati na Ngai. Soki te, bondima ata mpo na misala oyo bomoni Ngai kosala.
12 Or else, believe because of these same works. Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me shall also do the works that I do. And greater things than these shall he do, for I go to the Father.
Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: moto oyo andimi Ngai akosala misala oyo nazali kosala; akosala kutu misala oyo eleki minene, pamba te nazali kokende epai ya Tata.
13 And whatever you shall ask the Father in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Mpe nakosala nyonso oyo bokosenga na Kombo na Ngai, mpo ete Tata azwa lokumu kati na Mwana.
14 If you shall ask anything of me in my name, that I will do.
Soki bosengi Ngai eloko na Kombo na Ngai, nakosala yango.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
Soki bolingaka Ngai, bokobatela mibeko na Ngai.
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give another Advocate to you, so that he may abide with you for eternity: (aiōn g165)
Mpe Ngai, nakosenga epai ya Tata ete apesa bino Molobeli mosusu mpo ete azala elongo na bino tango nyonso, (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of Truth, whom the world is not able to accept, because it neither perceives him nor knows him. But you shall know him. For he will remain with you, and he will be in you.
Molimo ya solo, Molimo oyo mokili ekoki koyamba te mpo ete ezali komona Ye te to eyebi Ye te. Kasi bino, boyebi Ye, pamba te azali elongo na bino mpe azali kati na bino.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will return to you.
Nakotika bino te lokola bana bitike; nakozongela bino.
19 Yet a little while and the world will not see me any longer. But you will see me. For I live, and you shall live.
Etikali kaka tango moke, mokili ekomona Ngai lisusu te; kasi bino, bokomona Ngai. Mpo ete nazali na bomoi, bino mpe bokozala na bomoi.
20 In that day, you shall know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
Tango mokolo yango ekokoma, bokososola ete nazali kati na Tata na ngai; bokososola lisusu ete bozali kati na Ngai, mpe Ngai nazali kati na bino.
21 Whoever holds to my commandments and keeps them: it is he who loves me. And whoever loves me shall be loved by my Father. And I will love him, and I will manifest myself to him.”
Moto oyo alingaka Ngai, ezali ye oyo abatelaka mibeko na Ngai mpe atiaka yango na misala. Tata na Ngai akolinga moto oyo alingaka Ngai; Ngai mpe nakolinga ye mpe nakomimonisa epai na ye.
22 Judas, not the Iscariot, said to him: “Lord, how does it happen that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?”
Yuda (Yuda Isikarioti te) atunaki Yesu: — Nkolo, mpo na nini komimonisa epai na biso, kasi epai ya mokili te?
23 Jesus responded and said to him: “If anyone loves me, he shall keep my word. And my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and we will make our dwelling place with him.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Moto oyo alingaka Ngai akobatela maloba na Ngai, mpe Tata na Ngai akolinga ye; bongo tokoya epai na ye mpe tokovanda elongo na ye.
24 Whoever does not love me, does not keep not my words. And the word that you have heard is not of me, but it is of the Father who sent me.
Kasi moto oyo alingaka Ngai te, akobatela mpe maloba na Ngai te. Nzokande, Liloba oyo bozali koyoka ezali ya Ngai te, kasi ezali Liloba ya Tata oyo atindaki Ngai.
25 These things I have spoken to you, while abiding with you.
Nayebisi bino makambo oyo nyonso, wana nazali nanu elongo na bino.
26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will suggest to you everything whatsoever that I have said to you.
Kasi Molobeli, Molimo Mosantu oyo Tata akotinda na Kombo na Ngai, akoteya bino makambo nyonso mpe akosunga bino mpo ete bobosana te nyonso oyo nayebisaki bino.
27 Peace I leave for you; my Peace I give to you. Not in the way that the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, and let it not fear.
Nakeyi, kasi natikeli bino kimia; napesi bino kimia na Ngai. Nazali kopesa bino te ndenge mokili epesaka. Tika ete mitema na bino etungisama te mpe bobanga te!
28 You have heard that I said to you: I am going away, and I am returning to you. If you loved me, certainly you would be gladdened, because I am going to the Father. For the Father is greater than I.
Boyoki Ngai koloba na bino ete nakeyi, mpe lisusu ete nakozongela bino. Soki bozalaki kolinga Ngai, bolingaki kosepela na kokende na Ngai epai ya Tata, pamba te Tata aleki Ngai na monene.
29 And now I have told you this, before it happens, so that, when it will happen, you may believe.
Nayebisi bino makambo yango sik’oyo, liboso ete esalema, mpo ete bokoka kondima, na mokolo oyo ekosalema.
30 I will not now speak at length with you. For the prince of this world is coming, but he does not have anything in me.
Kobanda sik’oyo, nakoloba na bino lisusu mingi te, pamba te mokonzi ya mokili oyo azali koya. Ezali te mpo ete azali na nguya moko te likolo na Ngai,
31 Yet this is so that the world may know that I love the Father, and that I am acting according to the commandment that the Father has given to me. Rise up, let us go from here.”
kasi ezali mpo ete mokili eyeba ete nalingaka Tata, mpe ete nazali kosala kolanda ndenge atindaki Ngai. Botelema; tolongwa awa.
