John 16
1 THESE things have I spoken, that ye might not be stumbled.
“Nuwagambiriti aga, su namleka moyu gwenu.
2 They will put you out of their synagogues: yea, the hour is coming, that every one who killeth you will think he offers God a sacred service.
Wantu hawawawingi mwenga kulawa Mnumba zya Mlungu zyenu na shipindi hashizi yoseri pakakulageni hakavimani kamtendera Mlungu lihengu.
3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
Wantu hawawatenderani vitwatira avi toziya womberi wamumana ndiri Tati ama neni.
4 But these things have I spoken to you, that when the hour is come, ye may remember the same for I had told you. But these things I told you not at the beginning, because I was with you.
Kumbiti nukugambirani aga, su shipindi pashizaku kwa womberi kutenda vitwatira avi, hamuliholi kuwera nuwagambiriti kala. “Nuwagambiriti ndiri vitwatira avi kwanjira kwanja, toziya nweriti pamuhera namwenga.
5 But now I am going away to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither art thou going?
Su vinu nankugenda kwa ulii yakantumiti, kwahera ata yumu gwenu yakankosiya neni pang'endaku.
6 But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
Vinu nuwagambirani vitwatira avi, myoyu yenu ihinginika.
7 Yet I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I went not away, the Comforter would not come to you; but if I go, I will send him unto you.
Kumbiti, nankuwagambirani nakaka, Iherepa kwa mwenga neni ng'endi zangu, toziya pang'enda ndiri, Mtanga hapeni kizi kwa mwenga. Kumbiti pang'enda zyangu, hanumtumi yomberi kizi kwa mwenga.
8 And when he cometh, he will convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment:
Nayomberi pakizaku, hakawalunguziyi unakaka wantu wa pasipanu kuwera watenda upyota kuusu vidoda na vintu vyavimfiriziya Mlungu na utoza wa Mlungu.
9 of sin first, because they believe not in me;
Watenditi upyota kuusu vidoda toziya wanjimira ndiri neni,
10 then of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, so ye see me no more;
na kuusu vyavimfiriziya Mlungu, toziya nankugenda kwa Tati, hapeni mumoni kayi,
11 and of judgment, because the ruler of this world hath sentence pronounced on him.
nawomberi wapayira kuusu kutoza, toziya mkolamlima gwa pasipanu katozwa kala.
12 I have many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them just now.
“Nanaga gavuwa gakuwagambireni, kumbiti vinu hapeni muwezi kugahepelera.
13 But when he is come, the Spirit of truth, he will conduct you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever things he shall hear, he shall speak: and he will declare to you the things that shall come hereafter.
Kumbiti pakizaku Rohu ayu, hakagubutuli unakaka kuusu Mlungu, hakawalongoziyi mu unakaka woseri. Hakatakuli ndiri kwa uwezu wakuwi mweni, kumbiti hakatakuli shilii shakapikinira na hakawagambiri vintu vyaviyiza.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Yomberi hakanupi neni ukwisa, toziya hakawagambiri shilii shantakula na shilii shanumgambira kawagambiri.
15 All things whatsoever the Father hath are mine: therefore I said, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
Vyoseri vyakawera navi Tati vyaneni, ndo mana nuwagambirani kuwera Rohu Mnanagala hakawapanani vilii vyakapatiti kulawa kwaneni.
16 A little while longer, and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, and ye shall see me, because I am going to the Father.
“Shakali shipindi shididi hapeni mumoni kayi na shipindi shididi shakapanu hamumoni.”
17 Then said some of the disciples unto each other, What is this which he saith to us, A little while longer, and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, and ye shall see me: and this, because I am going to the Father?
Wafundwa wakuwi wamu walikosiyana, “Kamaanisha shishi? Katugambira kwa shipindi shididini hapeni tumwoni, kayi shipindi shididini hatumwoni, viraa katakuriti kayi, ‘Toziya nankugenda kwa Tati.’
18 They said therefore, What is this which he saith, This little while? we know not what he means.
Su, waweriti wankulikosiyana, kamaanisha shishi pakatakula, ‘shakali shipindi shididini?’ Tuvimana ndiri shakayowera!”
19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Are ye questioning among yourselves concerning this declaration, which I spake, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, and ye shall see me?
Yesu kavimaniti handa wafiriti kumkosiya, su kawagambira, “Hashi mlikosiyana ntambu yanongiti, ‘Shakali shipindi shididini hapeni mumoni kayi na shipindi shididi shakapanu hamumoni?’
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be very sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
Nankuwagambirani nakaka, hamulili na kudaya, kumbiti wantu wa pasi panu hawanemeleri, hamuhinginiki, kumbiti kuhinginika kwamwenga hakugalambuki kuwera nemeleru.
21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but when the little son is born, she no more remembers the anguish, for joy that a man is brought into the world.
Shipindi mdala pakalera, kawera na hinginika toziya shipindi sha kuwera mundabiri shankwiza, kumbiti mwana pakiwuka, yomberi kalyaluwa, toziya kawera na nemeleru kwiwuka kwa mwana pasipanu.
22 And ye therefore have indeed at present sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall be made glad, and your joy no man taketh from you.
Mwenga viraa mwanguhinginika vinu vinu, kumbiti hanuwawuyili kayi, mwenga hamuweri na nemeli mumyoyu mwenu na nemeli ayi kwahera muntu yakaweza kuyiwusiya kwamwenga.”
23 And in that hour ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, That whatsoever things ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give you.
“Lishaka ali lyankwiza, hapeni munuwi shoseri. Nukugambirani nakaka, Tati hakawapanani shoseri shamumluwa kupitira litawu lyaneni.
24 Hitherto ye have asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be complete.
Mpaka vinu munuwiti ndiri shoseri kwa litawu lyangu. Munduwi shoseri, namwenga hampati su nemeli yamwenga ipera.”
25 These things have I spoken to you in parables: but the hour is coming when I will no more speak to you in parables, but will plainly inform you respecting the Father.
“Nuwagambirani vitwatira avi kwa mafumbu. Kumbiti shipindi hashizi hapeni ntumiyi mafumbu kuwagambira, su hantakuli pota kufifa kuusu Tati.
26 In that day ye shall ask in my name: and I do not say to you, I will entreat the Father for you:
Lishaka ali palizaku, mwenga hamuluwi kwa litawu lyaneni,
27 for the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
toziya Tati mweni kawafira mwenga. Yomberi kawafira mwenga toziya munfira neni na kujimira kuwera niziti kulawa kwa Mlungu.
28 I came out from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I am leaving the world, and going to the Father.
Niziti kulawa kwa Tati na niziti pasipanu, vinu nankuwuka pasipanu, nankugenda kwa Tati.”
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo! now thou speakest plainly, and speakest in no-wise proverbial.
Su, wafundwa wakuwi wamgambira, “Vinu gwankutakula pota kufifa, gutakula ndiri kwa mafumbu.
30 Now we know that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any person should ask thee: by this we believe that thou hast come forth from God.
Vinu tuvimana kuwera gwenga guvimana kila shintu, gufira ndiri muntu yoseri kakukosiyi. Ayi itutenda tujimiri kuwera gwenga gulawa kwa Mlungu.”
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
Yesu kawankula, “Hashi, vinu mjimira?
32 Behold, the hour is coming, yea, it is already come, that ye shall be dispersed, each after his own concerns, and shall leave me alone: though I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
Shipindi shankwiza, na shapalaa kala, pawawapalasiya mwoseri mwenga, kila yumu pakawuya ukaya kwakuwi, hamundeki gweka yangu. Kumbiti nagweka yangu ndiri, toziya Tati kapamuhera na neni.
33 These things have I spoken to you, that ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good courage; I have overcome the world.
Nuwagambiriti aga, su hamuweri na ponga kwa kuwera pamuhera na neni. Wantu wa pasipanu hawawatendi ntabiki. Kumbiti muweri wagangamala! Neni nuwakanga kala wantu wa pasipanu!”
