John 10
1 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who is not entering through the door to the fold of the sheep, but is going up from another side, that one is a thief and a robber;
—Bukiedika, bukiedika ndikulukamba ti woso wunkambu kotila va muelo phaka wu mamemi vayi wunkotila ku yilu niandi khatika muivi ayi dovula!
2 and he who is entering through the door is shepherd of the sheep;
Vayi woso wunkotila va muelo buna niandi nsungi.
3 the doorkeeper opens to this one, and the sheep hear his voice, and his own sheep he calls by name, and leads them forth;
Niandi beti zibudila kuidi nsungi wu luphangu ayi mamemi meta wa mbemboꞌandi. Wuntelanga mamemi mandi mu mazina mawu ayi wunkumatotulanga ku nganda.
4 and when he may put forth his own sheep, he goes on before them, and the sheep follow him, because they have known his voice;
Bu katotudi mamemi mandi moso ku nganda, weti kuma tuaminina ku ntuala ayi mamemi meti kunlandakananga bila mazebi mbemboꞌandi.
5 and they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, because they have not known the voice of strangers.”
Muaki malendi landakana nzenza ko vayi meta kuntina bila masi zaba ko mbembo yi banzenza.
6 Jesus spoke this allegory to them, and they did not know what the things were that He was speaking to them;
Yesu wuba kamba nongo yoyo vayi basia sudika ko mambu momo kaba kuba kamba:
7 Jesus therefore said again to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I AM the door of the sheep;
Yesu wubuela ku bakamba diaka: —Bukiedika, bukiedika ndikulukamba ti minu muelo phaka wu mamemi.
8 all, as many as came before Me, are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them;
Mivi ayi bidovula bawu batu bayiza ku ntualꞌama. Vayi mamemi masia kubawila ko.
9 I AM the door, if anyone may come in through Me, he will be saved, and he will come in, and go out, and find pasture.
Minu ndidi muelo. Woso wunkotila mu munu wela vuka. Niandi wela kota, wela totuka ayi wela baka bidia.
10 The thief does not come, except that he may steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.
Muivi weta kuiza kaka mu diambu di yiba, vonda ayi bunga. Minu ndiyiza mu diambu di mamemi mabaka luzingu muingi mabaka luawu mu buwombo-wombo.
11 I AM the good shepherd; the good shepherd lays His life down for the sheep;
Minu ndidi Nsungi Wumboti. Nsungi wumboti weta vana luzingu luandi mu diambu di mamemi.
12 and the hired worker, and not being a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholds the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees; and the wolf snatches them, and scatters the sheep;
Vayi mutu wowo wumfutungu, kambulu nsungi wumboti, kambulu vua mamemi, niandi mona diemvu dilemvu yizi, wunyekulanga mamemi ayiwuntinanga; buna diemvu dikumabuilanga ayi dinsasikisanga mamemi.
13 and the hired worker flees because he is a hired worker, and is not caring for the sheep.
Mutu wumfutungu weta tina bila futu keta futu; kabelanga mamemi mayindu ko.
14 I AM the good shepherd, and I know My [sheep], and am known by Mine,
Minu ndidi nsungi wumbote; nzebi mamemi mama ayi mamemi mama manzebi.
15 according as the Father knows Me, and I know the Father, and My life I lay down for the sheep,
Sumbu Tata kanzebi ayi minu nzebi Tata. Ndieta vana luzingu luama mu diambu di mamemi.
16 and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it is necessary for Me to bring, and My voice they will hear, and there will become one flock—one shepherd.
Minu mbeki mamemi mankaka makambulu mu phaka yayi, mamvawu mfueti ku matuala ayi mela wa mbemboꞌama. Buna vela ba nkangu wumosi ayi nsungi wumosi.
17 Because of this the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life, that again I may take it;
Tata wunzodidi mu diambu diadi: minu ndieti vana luzingu luama muingindibuela lubonga diaka.
18 no one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself; authority I have to lay it down, and authority I have again to take it; this command I received from My Father.”
Kadi mutu kalendi kuphonda ko vayi minu veka ndieti vana luzingu luama. Bila minu veka mbeki lulendo mu kuluvana ayi mbeki lulendo lu buela kulubonga. Luawu lolo thumunu nditambula kuidi Dise diama.
19 Therefore, again, there came a division among the Jews, because of these words,
Bayuda babuela vasuka diaka mu diambu di mambu momo.
20 and many of them said, “He has a demon, and is mad, why do you hear Him?”
Bawombo mu bawu batuba: —Pheve yimbimbi yidi yandi ayi kilawu kadi. Bila mbi lufueti kunwila e?
21 Others said, “These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able to open blind men’s eyes?”
Vayi bankaka mu bawu batuba: —Mutu widi Pheve yimbimbi kalendi tuba mambu momo ko. Pheve yimbimbi yilenda kuandi zibula meso ma phofo e?
22 And the Dedication in Jerusalem came, and it was winter,
Yiba thangu nyengo wu mbiekolo Nzo Nzambi, ku Yelusalemithangu yi kiozi kingolo,
23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the porch of Solomon,
Yesu wudiata mu Nzo Nzambi, ku ndambu buangu baba ntedilanga: makunzi ma Solomo.
24 the Jews, therefore, came around Him and said to Him, “Until when do You hold our soul in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us freely.”
Bayuda banzungidila, banyuvula: —Nate thangu mbi fueti lembo tutudilanga mintima mu yilu e? Enati bukiedika ngeyo widi Klisto, wutukambi!
25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in the Name of My Father, these testify concerning Me;
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Ndilukamba buawu vayi lumanga kueno wilukila. Mavanga momo ndieti vanga mu dizina di dise diama mawu meti kuthelimina kimbangi.
26 but you do not believe, for you are not of My sheep,
Vayi beno lukadi wilukila bila luisi mamemi mama ko banga kuandi bu ndilukamba.
27 according as I said to you: My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me,
Mamemi mama manwanga mbemboꞌama ayi minu ndimazebi, meta kundandakana.
29 My Father, who has given to Me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch out of the hand of My Father;
Bila Dise diama diodi diphana mawu, viatukidi babo. Kuisi ko mutu wulenda kumaziona mu mioko mi Dise diama.
30 I and the Father are one.”
Minu ayi Tata tuidi mutu wumosi.
31 Therefore, again, the Jews took up stones that they may stone Him;
Bayuda batota diaka matadi muingi banzuba.
32 Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works from My Father; because of which work of them do you stone Me?”
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Minu ndilumonisa mavanga mawombo mamboti maba kuidi Dise diama. Mu diambu di mavanga mbi momo lutidi kunzubila matadi e?
33 The Jews answered Him, saying, “We do not stone You for a good work, but for slander, and because You, being a man, make Yourself God.”
Bayuda bamvutudila: —Tukadi kuzuba matadi mu diambu di mavanga mamboti vayi mu diambu wulembo vuezi Nzambi ayi ngeyo widi mutu kaka vayi wulembo tubi ti widi Nzambi.
34 Jesus answered them, “Is it not having been written in your law: I said, you are gods?
Yesu wuba vutudila: —Mu mina mieno musia sonama ko: Minu thubidi ti beno luidi zinzambi e?
35 If He called them gods to whom the word of God came (and the Writing is not able to be broken),
Enati niandi wuntedila batu bawa mambu ma Nzambi “zinzambi” ayi masonama malendi vunzu ko,
36 of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, do you say—You slander, because I said, I am [the] Son of God?
buna bila mbi lulembo tubila kuidi mutu wukitulu nlongo kuidi Tata ayi mutu wowo kafidisa va nza ti wulembo vuezi Nzambi e? Bila thubidingi ti “minu ndidi Muana Nzambi e?”
37 If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;
Enati ndikadi vanga mavanga ma Dise diama, buna bikanu kueno kunguila.
38 and if I do, even if you may not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and may believe that the Father [is] in Me, and I in Him.”
Vayi enati ndilembo mavangi, bu lukambu kueno kunguila, vayi bika luwilukila mavanga muingi luzaba ayi luwilukila ti Tata widi mu minu ayi minu ndidi mu niandi.
39 Therefore they were seeking again to seize Him, and He went forth out of their hand,
Batomba diaka mu kunkanga, vayi wutina mu mioko miawu
40 and went away again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John was at first immersing, and remained there,
ayi wuyenda diaka kuna disimu di Yolidani va buangu kioki Yowani katonina botikila; wuvuanda kuna.
41 and many came to Him and said, “John, indeed, did no sign, and all things, as many as John said about this One were true”;
Batu bawombo bayiza kuidi niandi ayi batuba: —Yowani kasia vanga kadi kumu kimosi ko, vayi mambu mamo matuba Yowani mu diambu di mutu wawu madi makiedika.
42 and many believed in Him there.
Kuna buangu beni batu bawombo banwilukila.
