John 15
1 “I AM the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser;
UYesu akati, “Une neene nsabibu ghwa kyang'haani, uNhaata ghwe nya mughunda.
2 every branch not bearing fruit in Me, He takes it away, and everyone bearing fruit, He cleanses by pruning it, that it may bear more fruit;
Ilitaafi mulyune lino nalikoma isabubu, uNhaata ikulivusia. Looli lino likoma, ikulinosia vunofu kuuti likome fiijo.
3 you are already clean, because of the word that I have spoken to you;
Umue munosivue, ulwakuva mwitiike sino nivavulile.
4 remain in Me, and I in you, as the branch is not able to bear fruit of itself, if it may not remain in the vine, so neither you, if you may not remain in Me.
Mukalaghe nkate mulyune, najuune nikukalagha nkate mulyumue. Ilitaafi nalingakome isabibu nave nalili mu nsabibu, fye lulivuo, na jumue namungavombe sino ilonda uNguluve, nave namuli nkate mulyune.
5 I AM the vine, you the branches; he who is remaining in Me, and I in him, this one bears much fruit, because apart from Me you are not able to do anything;
Une nili nsabibu, umue muli matafi. Juno ikukala nkate mulyune, najume mwa mwene; ujuo ivombagha sino ilonda u Nguluve, ulwakuva kisila kuuva nkate mulyune, namungavombe kimonga.
6 if anyone may not remain in Me, he was cast forth outside as the branch, and was withered, and they gather them, and cast into fire, and they are burned;
Umuunhu juno naikukala nkate mulyune itaghua, ndavule ilitaafi lino nalikoma vule litaghua na kukwuma, avaanhu vihola na kunyanya.
7 if you may remain in Me, and My sayings may remain in you, whatever you may wish you will ask, and it will be done to you.
Nave mujigha mukukala nkate mulyume na masio ghango ghikale mulyumue, musumaghe kwa Nhaata kino mulonda, ghwope ikuvapeela.
8 In this was My Father glorified, that you may bear much fruit, and you will become My disciples.
Pano mukoma fiijo ifipeke, muuva vavulanisivua vango kyang'haani. Mu uluo uNhaata ghwango ighinisivua fiijo.
9 According as the Father loved Me, I also loved you, remain in My love;
Ndavule uNhata vule anganile une, enendiiki najuune nivaghanile umue. Lino mukalaghe mu lughano lwango.
10 if you may keep My commands, you will remain in My love, according as I have kept the commands of My Father, and remain in His love;
Nave muvingilila sino nikuvalaghila, apuo mukukala mu lughano lwango, ndavule une vule nikusivingilila sino uNhaata andaghiile na kukukala mu lughano lwake.
11 these things I have spoken to you, that My joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.
Nivavulile isi kuuti muuve nu lukeelo ndavule une, kange muuve nu lukeelo uluvaha fiijo.
12 This is My command, that you love one another, according as I loved you;
Lino nikuvalaghila kuuti mughananghe ndavule une vule nivaghanile umue.
13 greater love has no one than this, that anyone may lay down his life for his friends;
Nakwale umuunhu unya lughano kukila ulu, ulwa kuuti, itavule uvwumi vwake vwimila umanyaani ghwake.
14 you are My friends if you may do whatever I command you;
Nave muvomba sino nivalaghiile, muuva vamanyani vango.
15 I no longer call you servants, because the servant has not known what his lord does, and I have called you friends, because all things that I heard from My Father, I made known to you.
Lino nanikutambula vakami vango, ulwakuva unkami naivomba sino ivomba untwa ghwake. Looli nikuvatambula umue kuuti muli vamanyaani vango, ulwakuva nivavulile sooni sino nipuliike kuhuma kwa Nhaata.
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you might go away, and might bear fruit, and your fruit might remain, that whatever you may ask of the Father in My Name, He may give you.
Umue namulyasalwile une, looli une nilyavasalwile umue na kukuvasuung'ha kuvomba sino ilonda uNguluve, kuuti, kino mukunsuuma umwene mu litavua lyango avapelaghe.
17 These things I command you, that you love one another;
Lino nikuvalaghila umue kuuti mughananaghe.
18 if the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before you;
Nave avaanhu ava mu iisi muno, vikuvakalalila umue mukagulaghe kuuti valyatalile kukung'halalila une.
19 if you were of the world, the world would have been cherishing its own, but because you are not of the world, but I chose [you] out of the world—because of this the world hates you.
Mwale muuve vaanhu va mu iisi muno, avaanhu avuo vaale vikuvaghana, ulwakuva muli vaanhu vaave. Neke umue nivasalwile kuhuma mu iisi muno, lino umue namuli va mu iisi. Mu uluo avaanhu ava mu iisi vikuvakalalila.
20 Remember the word that I said to you: A servant is not greater than his lord; if they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they kept My word, they will also keep yours;
Mukumbukaghe ilisio lino nilyavavulile kuuti, Unkami nam'baha kukila untwa ghwake.' Lino, nave vakamhumwisie une, najumue vikuvapumusyagha, nave vakitiike imbulanisio sango, nasi siinu vikwitikagha.
21 but all these things will they do to you, because of My Name, because they have not known Him who sent Me;
Vikuvavombelagha isio sooni vwimila vwa kukumbingilila une ulwakuva navammanyile juno asung'hile une.
22 if I had not come and spoken to them, they were not having sin; but now they have no pretext for their sin.
Naale nileke kukwisa kukuvavuula, navaale viiva vahosi, neke lino navangakaane vwimila uvuhosi vwave.
23 He who is hating Me, hates My Father also;
Umuunhu juno ikung'halalila une, ikunkalalila na ju Nhaata.
24 if I did not do among them the works that no other has done, they were not having sin, and now they have both seen and hated both Me and My Father;
Nivombile ifidegho ifivaha, fino nambe muunhu na aghelile kuvomba, vaale valeke kukufyagha, ngale vasila makole. Nambe vafyaghile fyoni nivombile, vajiighe vikung'halalila une naju Nhaata.
25 but—that the word may be fulfilled that was written in their law—They hated Me without a cause.
Isio sivombeka mulwa kukwilanisia aMalembe aMimike ghano ghiiti, 'Vakang'halaliile vuvule.'
26 And when the Comforter may come, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth, who comes forth from the Father, He will testify of Me;
Nikunsuung'ha kulyumue uNtangili kuhuma kwa Nhaata. Untangili ujuo ghwe Mhepo juno ihufia uvwakyang'aani, umwene ikwolekagha imhola sango.
27 and you also testify, because you are with Me from the beginning.”
Najumue mukwolekagha imhola sango, ulwakuva muli palikimo nuune kuhuma ye nitengula imbombo.
