< John 16 >

1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.
Zvinhu izvi ndataura kwamuri, kuti murege kugumburwa.
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.
Vachakubudisai mumasinagoge; hongu nguva inouya, apo umwe neumwe anokuurayai achafunga kuti anoitira Mwari basa.
3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
Uye zvinhu izvi vachazviita kwamuri, nokuti havana kuziva Baba kana ini.
4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.
Asi zvinhu izvi ndataura kwamuri, kuti kana nguva yasvika, muzvirangarire kuti ini ndakakuudzai. Asi zvinhu izvi handina kuzvireva kwamuri kubva pakutanga, nokuti ndaiva nemwi.
5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
Asi ikozvino ndinoenda kune wakandituma, uye hakuna umwe wenyu anondibvunza, achiti: Munoenda kupi?
6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.
Asi nokuti ndareva zvinhu izvi kwamuri, kusuruvara kwazadza moyo wenyu.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
Asi ini ndinokuudzai chokwadi: Zvakanaka kwamuri kuti ini ndiende; nokuti kana ndisingaendi, Munyaradzi haazouyi kwamuri; asi kana ndikaenda, ndichamutumira kwamuri.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
Zvino kana asvika, iye achapwisa nyika nezvechivi, uye nezvekururama, uye nezvemutongo;
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
zvechivi, nokuti havatendi kwandiri;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
uye zvekururama, nokuti ndinoenda kuna Baba vangu, uye hamuchazondionizve;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
uye zvemutongo, nokuti mutungamiriri wenyika ino watongwa.
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
Ndichine zvinhu zvizhinji zvekutaura kwamuri, asi hamugoni kuzvitakura ikozvino;
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
asi kana iye asvika, Mweya wechokwadi, achakutungamirirai kuchokwadi chese; nokuti haazozvitauriri pachake, asi chega chega chaanonzwa achataura, uye achakuzivisai zvinhu zvinouya.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you.
Iye achandirumbidza, nokuti achatora pane zvangu, uye achazvizivisa kwamuri.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you.
Zvese Baba zvavanazvo, ndezvangu; ndokusaka ndichiti achatora pane zvangu, agozivisa kwamuri.
16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
Kwechinguvana uye hamuchandioni, uye kwechinguvanazve muchandiona, nokuti ini ndinoenda kuna Baba.
17 Then said [some] of his disciples among themselves, What is this that he saith unto us, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me: and, Because I go to the Father?
Zvino vamwe vevadzidzi vake vakataurirana vachiti: Chii ichi chaanoreva kwatiri: Kwechinguvana, hamuchandioni; uyezve kwechinguvana muchandiona; uye: Nokuti ini ndinoenda kuna Baba?
18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.
Naizvozvo vakati: Chii ichi chaanoreva: Chinguvana? Hatizivi chaanoreva.
19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?
Zvino Jesu waiziva kuti vakange vachishuva kumubvunza, akati kwavari: Munobvunzana pamusoro pezvizvi here kuti ndati: Kwechinguvana hamuchandioni, uyezve kwechinguvana muchandiona?
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.
Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwamuri: Imwi muchachema nekurira, asi nyika ichafara; uye imwi muchava nekusuruvara, asi kusuruvara kwenyu kuchava mufaro.
21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.
Mukadzi kana achisununguka ane marwadzo, nokuti awa rake rasvika; asi kana angopona mucheche, haacharangaririzve marwadzo, nekufara kuti munhu waponwa panyika.
22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.
Naizvozvo nemwi ikozvino mune kusuruvara; asi ndichazokuonaizve, nemoyo wenyu uchafara; uye hakuna munhu anokutorerai mufaro wenyu.
23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you.
Zvino nezuva iro hamuchazondibvunzi chinhu. Zvirokwazvo, zvirokwazvo, ndinoti kwamuri: Chipi nechipi chamuchakumbira kuna Baba muzita rangu vachakupai.
24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.
Kusvikira ikozvino hamuna kukumbira chinhu muzita rangu; kumbirai, uye muchagamuchira, kuti mufaro wenyu uzadzwe.
25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you plainly of the Father.
Zvinhu izvi ndataura kwamuri mumadimikira; nguva inouya apo ndisingazotaurizve kwamuri nemadimikira, asi ndichakuudzai pachena nezvaBaba.
26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:
Pazuva iro muchakumbira muzita rangu; uye handirevi kwamuri kuti ini ndichakukumbirirai kuna Baba;
27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.
nokuti Baba pachavo vanokudai, nokuti imwi makandida, mukatenda kuti ini ndakabuda kuna Mwari.
28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
Ndakabuda kuna Baba, uye ndakauya panyika; ndinobvazve panyika, uye ndinoenda kuna Baba.
29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.
Vadzidzi vake vakati kwaari: Tarirai ikozvino motaura pachena, uye munotaura pasina dimikira.
30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.
Zvino tinoziva kuti munoziva zvinhu zvese, uye hamutsvaki kuti munhu akubvunzei; neizvozvi tinotenda kuti makabuda kuna Mwari.
31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?
Jesu akavapindura akati: Ikozvino munotenda here?
32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
Tarirai, awa rinouya, hongu ikozvino rasvika, rekuti muchaparadzirwa, umwe neumwe kune zvake, uye mundisiye ndega; izvo handisi ndega, nokuti Baba vaneni.
33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
Ndareva zvinhu izvi kwamuri, kuti muve nerugare mandiri. Munyika muchava nedambudziko; asi tsungai moyo, ini ndakakunda nyika.
