John 10
1 Verely, verely I say vnto you, Hee that entreth not in by the doore into the sheepefolde, but climeth vp another way, he is a theefe and a robber.
Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: moto oyo akotaka na lopango ya bameme na nzela ya ekuke te, kasi amataka na likolo ya lopango, na esika mosusu, azali moyibi mpe mobomi.
2 But he that goeth in by the doore, is the shepheard of the sheepe.
Kasi ye oyo akotelaka na ekuke azali mobateli bameme.
3 To him the porter openeth, and the sheepe heare his voyce, and he calleth his owne sheepe by name, and leadeth them out.
Mokengeli afungolelaka mobateli bameme ekuke, bameme eyokaka mongongo na ye. Mobateli abengaka bameme na ye na kombo na yango mpe abimisaka yango na libanda.
4 And when hee hath sent foorth his owne sheepe, he goeth before them, and the sheepe follow him: for they know his voyce.
Soki abimisi bameme na ye nyonso na libanda, alekaka liboso na yango; mpe bameme elandaka ye na sima, pamba te eyebi mongongo na ye.
5 And they will not follow a stranger, but they flee from him: for they know not the voyce of strangers.
Ekotikala ata mokolo moko te kolanda mopaya; kasi ekokima ye mosika, pamba te eyebi mongongo na ye te.
6 This parable spake Iesus vnto them: but they vnderstoode not what things they were which he spake vnto them.
Yesu ayebisaki bango lisese yango, kasi basosolaki te tina ya makambo oyo azalaki koyebisa bango.
7 Then sayd Iesus vnto them againe, Verely, verely I say vnto you, I am that doore of the sheepe.
Mpo na yango, Yesu alobaki na bango lisusu: — Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: Ngai nazali ekuke ya bameme.
8 All, that euer came before me, are theeues and robbers: but the sheepe did not heare them.
Bato nyonso oyo bayaki liboso na Ngai bazali miyibi mpe babomi; bameme eyokelaki bango te.
9 I am that doore: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saued, and shall go in, and go out, and finde pasture.
Ngai nde nazali ekuke; moto nyonso oyo akokotela na nzela na Ngai akobika; akokota mpe akobima, mpe akozwa bilei.
10 The theefe commeth not, but for to steale, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might haue life, and haue it in abundance.
Moyibi ayaka kaka mpo na koyiba, koboma mpe kobebisa; kasi Ngai, nayei mpo ete bameme ezwa bomoi mpe ezwa yango na bofuluki penza.
11 I am that good shepheard: that good shepheard giueth his life for his sheepe.
Nazali mobateli malamu ya bameme. Mobateli malamu ya bameme apesaka bomoi na ye mpo na bameme na ye.
12 But an hireling, and hee which is not the shepheard, neither the sheepe are his owne, seeth the wolfe comming, and hee leaueth the sheepe, and fleeth, and the wolfe catcheth them, and scattreth the sheepe.
Mosali oyo azali mobateli bibwele te, oyo azali nkolo bameme te, asalaka kaka mpo na lifuti. Soki kaka amoni mbwa ya zamba koya, asundolaka bameme mpe akimaka. Bongo mbwa ya zamba ekangaka bameme mpe epanzaka yango.
13 So the hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheepe.
Mosali yango akimaka, pamba te asalaka kaka mpo na lifuti mpe atiaka makanisi na ye na bameme te.
14 I am that good shepheard, and knowe mine, and am knowen of mine.
Ngai, nazali mobateli malamu ya bibwele; nayebi bameme na Ngai, mpe bameme na Ngai eyebi Ngai
15 As the Father knoweth me, so know I the Father: and I lay downe my life for my sheepe.
—ndenge kaka Tata ayebi Ngai, mpe Ngai nayebi Tata— Nazali kokaba bomoi na Ngai mpo na bameme na Ngai.
16 Other sheepe I haue also, which are not of this folde: them also must I bring, and they shall heare my voyce: and there shalbe one sheepefolde, and one shepheard.
Nazali na bameme mosusu oyo ezali ya lopango oyo te. Nasengeli komema yango; ekoyoka mongongo na Ngai. Etonga ekozala kaka moko, mpe mobateli bibwele akozala kaka moko.
17 Therefore doeth my Father loue me, because I lay downe my life, that I might take it againe.
Tata alingaka Ngai mpo ete nazali kokaba bomoi na Ngai; kasi nakozwa yango lisusu.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it downe of my selfe: I haue power to lay it downe, and haue power to take it againe: this commandement haue I receiued of my Father.
Moto moko te azali kobotola Ngai bomoi yango, kasi Ngai moko nde nazali kokaba yango, na mokano na Ngai moko. Nazali na bokonzi ya kopesa mpe ya kozwa yango lisusu. Yango nde mitindo oyo Tata na Ngai apesaki Ngai.
19 Then there was a dissension againe among the Iewes for these sayings,
Bayuda bakabwanaki lisusu likolo ya maloba yango.
20 And many of them sayd, He hath a deuill, and is mad: why heare ye him?
Mingi kati na bango bazalaki koloba: — Azali na molimo mabe! Azali na liboma! Mpo na nini bozali koyoka ye?
21 Other sayd, These are not the wordes of him that hath a deuill: can the deuill open the eyes of the blinde?
Bamosusu bazalaki kozongisa: — Maloba wana ezali te ya moto oyo azali na se ya bokonzi ya molimo mabe! Boni, molimo mabe ekoki penza kofungola miso ya bakufi miso?
22 And it was at Hierusalem the feast of the Dedication, and it was winter.
Ekomaki tango ya kosepela feti ya Kobulisa Tempelo ya Yelusalemi. Feti yango esalemaki na tango ya malili makasi.
23 And Iesus walked in the Temple, in Salomons porche.
Yesu azalaki kotambola kati na lopango ya Tempelo, na veranda ya Salomo.
24 Then came the Iewes round about him, and sayd vnto him, Howe long doest thou make vs dout? If thou be that Christ, tell vs plainely.
Bayuda bazingelaki Ye mpe batunaki Ye: — Kino tango nini okotika mitema na biso likolo-likolo? Soki ozali Klisto, yebisa biso yango polele!
25 Iesus answered them, I tolde you, and ye beleeue not: the workes that I doe in my Fathers Name, they beare witnes of me.
Yesu azongiselaki bango: — Nayebisaki bino yango, kasi boboyi na bino kondima. Makamwisi oyo nazali kosala na Kombo ya Tata ezali kotatola na tina na Ngai;
26 But ye beleeue not: for ye are not of my sheepe, as I sayd vnto you.
kasi bino, boboyi na bino kondima, pamba te bozali bameme na Ngai te.
27 My sheepe heare my voyce, and I knowe them, and they follow me,
Bameme na Ngai eyokaka mongongo na Ngai. Nayebi bameme na Ngai, mpe yango elandaka Ngai.
29 My Father which gaue them me, is greater then all, and none is able to take them out of my Fathers hand.
Tata na Ngai, oyo apesaki Ngai bameme yango, aleki bato nyonso na monene, mpe moto moko te akoki kobotola yango na loboko ya Tata na Ngai.
30 I and my Father are one.
Ngai mpe Tata tozali se moko.
31 Then ye Iewes againe tooke vp stones, to stone him.
Na bongo, Bayuda balokotaki lisusu mabanga mpo na koboma Ye,
32 Iesus answered them, Many good workes haue I shewed you from my Father: for which of these workes doe ye stone me?
kasi Yesu alobaki na bango: — Nalakisi bino bikamwa mingi ya minene oyo esalemaki na nguya ya Tata; mpo na likamwisi nini bolingi koboma Ngai na mabanga?
33 The Iewes answered him, saying, For the good worke we stone thee not, but for blasphemie, and that thou being a man, makest thy selfe God.
Bayuda bazongiselaki Ye: — Ezali te mpo na likamwisi moko boye ya malamu nde tolingi koboma yo, kasi ezali mpo ete ozali kofinga Nzambe. Lisusu, ezali mpo ete, yo oyo ozali moto, ozali koloba ete ozali Nzambe.
34 Iesus answered them, Is it not written in your Lawe, I sayd, Ye are gods?
Yesu alobaki na bango: — Ekomama te kati na mibeko na bino: « Nalobi: ‹ Bozali banzambe? › »
35 If hee called them gods, vnto whome the worde of God was giuen, and the Scripture cannot be broken,
Nzokande, batiaka tembe na Makomi te. Boye, soki abengaki « banzambe, » bato oyo epai banani Liloba na Nzambe eyaki,
36 Say ye of him, whome the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the worlde, Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Sonne of God?
mpo na nini koloba na tina na Ngai oyo Tata abulisa mpe atinda kati na mokili: « Ozali kofinga, » mpo nalobaki: « Nazali Mwana na Nzambe? »
37 If I doe not the workes of my Father, beleeue me not.
Soki nasalaka te misala ya Tata na Ngai, wana bondima na bino Ngai te.
38 But if I doe, then though ye beleeue not mee, yet beleeue the workes, that ye may knowe and beleeue, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
Kasi soki nasalaka yango, ezala soki boboyi na bino kondima Ngai, bondima ata misala yango, mpo boyeba mpe bososola ete Tata azali kati na Ngai, mpe Ngai nazali kati na Tata.
39 Againe they went about to take him: but he escaped out of their handes,
Mpo na yango, balukaki lisusu kokanga Ye, kasi Yesu akimaki bango.
40 And went againe beyonde Iordan, into the place where Iohn first baptized, and there abode.
Akendeki lisusu na ngambo mosusu ya Yordani, kaka na esika oyo Yoane azalaki kobatisa bato, mpe atikalaki kuna.
41 And many resorted vnto him, and saide, Iohn did no miracle: but all thinges that Iohn spake of this man, were true.
Bato mingi penza bayaki epai na Ye; bazalaki koloba: « Yoane asalaki likamwisi ata moko te, kasi makambo nyonso oyo alobaki na tina na moto oyo ezali ya solo! »
42 And many beleeued in him there.
Mpe kuna, bato mingi bandimaki Yesu.
