John 10
1 “Most assuredly I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
“Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, jojowe akajinjila nshitundu sha ngondolo kupitila pannango, ikabhe nipeleta panape, jwenejo nngwii na nkupokonyola.
2 But he who enters by the door is a shepherd of the sheep.
Ikabheje apitila pa nnango, jwenejo nshunga jwa ngondolo.
3 To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
Nkulinda nnango gwa shitundu, anakunng'ugulila nshunga na ngondolo inapilikana lilobhe lyakwe, na anakwiishema ngondolo yakwe kwa mena gabhonji, nikwilongoya palanga.
4 And whenever he takes out his own sheep he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.
Aikopoyaga palanga anakwilongolela mmujo, numbe ngondolo ilikunkagula, pabha bhanakulimanyanga lilobhe lyakwe.
5 But they will not follow a stranger; rather they will run away from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”
Ngondolo nngankagula nnjeni, ikabhe shiimmutushe, pabha ikakulimanya lilobhe lyakwe.”
6 Jesus gave them this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.
A Yeshu bhashinkwabhalanjilanga lwene lutangolu, ikabheje bhangashimanyanga shibhalugulilwenje.
7 Then Jesus addressed them again: “Most assuredly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Bhai a Yeshu, gubhashite kabhili, “Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, nne nnango gwa ngondolo.
8 All who ever came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
Bhowenji bhalongolelenje nganabheika nne, bhagwii na bhaapokonyola na yalakwe ngondolo yangaapilikanilanga.
9 I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.
Nne nnango. Ajinjila kupitila nne shatapulwe na shajinjile nikopoka na shaapate shalya.
10 The thief comes only in order to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come so that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
Nngwii anakwiya nkupinga, kujibha, kubhulaga na kuangabhanya. Nne njikwiya nkupinga nkolanje gumi, numbe gumi gwa punda.
11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life on behalf of the sheep.
“Nne nshunga jwa mmbone. Nshunga jwa mmbone akajogopa shoya gumi gwakwe kwa ligongo lya ngondolo yakwe.
12 But the hired man, not being the shepherd and not owning the sheep, sees the wolf coming and abandons the sheep, and runs away; and the wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them.
Mundu jwa nshaala, wala nngabha nshunga, na wala ngondolo nngabha yakwe, ammonagape liogo alikwiiya, anakwiileka ngondolo nibhutuka, penepo liogo anakwiikamula na ina inapwilinganya.
13 Now the hired man runs away because he is a hired man and it does not matter to him about the sheep.
Anabhutuka pabha jwenejo mundu jwa nshaalape akajali ga ngondolo pabha nngabha yakwe.
14 “I am the good shepherd, and I know my own sheep, and I am known by them.
Nne nshunga jwa mmbone. Bhalinginji bhangu naamanyinji, na bhalabhonji bhalinginji bhangu bhamanyinji,
15 Just as the Father knows me, I also know the Father, and I lay down my life on behalf of the sheep.
malinga Atati shibhamanya nne, na nne shingwamanya Atati. Nne ngunakwishoya gumi gwangu kwa ligongo lyabhonji.
16 I also have other sheep, that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice; and there will be one flock, one shepherd.
Ngwete ngondolo ina nngabha ya shishino shitundu shino. Ngunapinjikwa ng'ishenayo nkali yeneyo, na yalakwe shiipilikane lilobhe lyangu, kungai shiibhe likundi limo na nshunga jumo.
17 “Because of this the Father loves me, in that I lay down my life so that I may take it up again.
“Kwa nneyo Atati bhanambinga, pabha ngunakuushoya gumi gwangu nkupinga umujile kabhili.
18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This command I have received from my Father.”
Jwakwa mundu jwa mbokonyola gumi gwangu, ngunakuushoya kwa engwa namwene. Ngwete mashili ga kuushoya na mashili ga kuutola kabhili. Nneyo ni shibhang'amulishe Atati ndende.”
19 Therefore there was another division among the Jews because of these words.
Gugakoposhele kabhili malekano munkumbi gwa Bhayaudi kwa ligongo lya gene malobhego.
20 Many of them were saying: “He has a demon and is raving mad. Why do you listen to him?”
Bhabhagwinji gubhashitenje, “Bhashikola maoka, numbe bhalwele shalubha! Kwa nndi kwaapilikanishiya?”
21 Others were saying: “These are not the sayings of someone who is demonized. A demon cannot open blind people's eyes, can it?”
Bhananji gubhashitenje, “Aga nngabha malobhe gaka mundu akwete maoka. Bhuli, lioka linakombola kulamya meyo gaka nangalole?”
22 Now it was the Feast of Dedication in Jerusalem; and it was winter.
Bhai ku Yelushalemu shashinkupagwa shikukuu sha kumbushila kulimbula likanisha. Gene mobhago pugaliji ga shipwepwe.
23 And Jesus was walking about in the temple, in Solomon's porch.
Na bhalabho a Yeshu bhatendaga owa ku likanisha nnukumbi lwa a Shelemani.
24 Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him: “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
Bhai, Bhayaudi gubhaatimbililenje, gubhaabhushiyenje, “Shinnjiabhuye mitima mpaka shakani? Monaga mmwe a Kilishitu, bhai ntubhalanjile.”
25 Jesus answered them: “I did tell you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name—these testify concerning me.
A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Nimmalanjilenje, ikabheje nkaakulupalilanga. Maengo gungukamula kwa lina lya Atati ganangong'ondela.
26 But you do not believe because you are not among my sheep, just like I told you.
Ikabheje mmanganyanji nkaakulupalilanga, pabha mmanganyanji nngabha ngondolo yangu.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
Ngondolo yangu inapilikana lilobhe lyangu, nne ngulikwiimanya, na yalakwe inaangagula.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch out of my Father's hand.
Atati bhambele yene ngondoloyo ni bhakulungwa kupunda bhowe, wala jwakwa shakombole kwaashoyanga mmakono ga Atati.
30 I and the Father are one.”
Nne na Atati, tubhamope.”
31 Therefore the Jews picked up stones again to stone Him.
Bhai Bhayaudi gubhalokwetenje maganga nkupinga bhaakomanje.
32 Jesus answered them: “Many good works I have shown you from my Father. For which one of them are you stoning me?”
A Yeshu gubhaabhalugulilenje, “Ninnangwiyenje maengo ga mmbone gamagwinji kopoka kwa Atati. Gei gundendile gatenda nngomanje maganga?”
33 The Jews answered Him saying, “It is not for a good work that we are stoning you, but for blasphemy; precisely because you, being a man, make yourself God!”
Bhayaudi gubhaajangwilenje, “Tukakunkoma maganga kwa ligongo lya maengo ga mmbone, ikabhe kwa ligongo lya kwatukana a Nnungu! Pabha mmwe nnakwiitenda a Nnungu mbena mmandupe.”
34 Jesus answered them: “Is it not written in your law, ‘I said, you are gods’?
A Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje, “Bhuli shalia jenunji jangajandika Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo kuti a Nnungu bhaashite, ‘Nne njite, mmanganyanji ashi nnungu’?
35 If He called them ‘gods’ to whom the Word of God came—and the Scripture cannot be broken—
A Nnungu bhashinkwaashemanga ashinnungu bhapegwilenje lilobhe lya a Nnungu, na uwe tumumanyi kuti Majandiko ga Ukonjelo ganabheleta kweli mobha gowe.
36 do you say ‘You are blaspheming’ to the One the Father sanctified and sent into the world because I said, ‘I am God's Son’?
Jwene aagwilwe na Atati nikuntuma kushilambolyo, nkummalanjilanga kuti bhuli, ‘Unatukana,’ pabha njibheleketa, ‘Nne Mwana jwa a Nnungu?’
37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not believe me.
Monaga ngakamula maengo ga Atati, nnangulupalilanje.
38 But if I am doing them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, so that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in Him.”
Ikabheje monaga ngunakamula genego, nkali ibhaga nkangulupalilanga, nkulupalilanje kapela maengo pego, mmumanyanje na kung'amula kuti Atati mubhali nkati jangu, na nne nkati jabho.”
39 So they tried again to seize Him, but He escaped from their hand.
Gubhalinjilenje kwaakamula kabhili, ikabheje gubhakolobhweshe mmakono gabhonji.
40 He went away again across the Jordan, to the place where John was baptizing at first; and He remained there.
A Yeshu gubhapite kung'ambo lushi lwa Yolodani, kubhabhatishaga a Yowana bhukala, gubhatemi kweneko.
41 And many came to Him and said, “Though John did not perform any sign, everything John said about this man was true.”
Bhandu bhabhagwinji gubhaajendelenje gubhashitenje, “A Yowana bhangatenda ilangulo yoyowe. Ikabheje gowe gubhatashiye a Yowana ga bhene bhandubha, pugaliji ga kweli.”
42 And many of the people there believed into Him.
Penepo bhandu bhabhagwinji gubhaakulupalilenje a Yeshu.
