John 17

1 These things Jesus spoke, and lifted up His eyes to the sky, and said, “Father, the hour has come, glorify Your Son, that Your Son may also glorify You,

Jesu hamana ku wamba izi zintu, ncha katwila menso akwe kwi wulu mi na ti, “Itayo, inako chi yasika, ulumbeke Mwanako njo kuti Mwana naye aku lumbeke-

2 according as You gave to Him authority over all flesh, that—all that You have given to Him—He may give to them continuous life; (aiōnios g166)

sina kamo ba muheli buyendisi he wulu lya zi bumbantu zonse njo kuti awole kuha buhalo busamani kwa zumwi ni zumwi yo ba muhi. (aiōnios g166)

3 and this is the continuous life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Him whom You sent—Jesus Christ; (aiōnios g166)

Ubu buhalo busamani: kuti ba kwizi, Ireeza yenke we niti, mi iye yo ba tumi, Jesu Kerisite. (aiōnios g166)

4 I glorified You on the earth, having completed the work that You have given Me, that I should do.

Ni baku tembi hansi. Ni ba mani mutendo oba nihi kuti ni tende.

5 And now, glorify Me, You Father, with Yourself, with the glory that I had with You before the world was;

Linu, Tayo, ni tembe hamwina nawe cha ku tembwa ku ni bena nawe pili inkanda ni seni ku bumbwa.

6 I revealed Your Name to the men whom You have given to Me out of the world; they were Yours, and You have given them to Me, and they have kept Your word;

Ni ba sinululi izina lya ko ku bantu bo banihi kuzwilila mwi nkanda. I bali bako, mi ni waba ni ha, mi baba kuteki inzwi lya ko.

7 now they have known that all things, as many as You have given to Me, are from You,

Hanu chi bezi kuti zintu zonse zo banihi zi zwa kwako,

8 because the sayings that You have given to Me, I have given to them, and they themselves received, and have known truly, that I came forth from You, and they believed that You sent Me.

mukuti ni babahi ma nzwi anse oba nihi. Ba ba atambuli mi cho buniti ba be zibi kuti nibazwi kwako, mi baba zumini kuti ubani tumi.

9 I ask in regard to them; I do not ask in regard to the world, but in regard to those whom You have given to Me, because they are Yours,

Ni ba lapelela. Kani lapeleli inkanda kono ni lapelela abo boba nihi, mukuti nji bako.

10 and all Mine are Yours, and Yours [are] Mine, and I have been glorified in them;

Chonse chili cha ngu nji chako, mi chako nji changu, mi ni tembetwe mu bali.

11 and I am no longer in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your Name, whom You have given to Me, that they may be one as We [are one];

Kani si mwina mwi inkanda, kono aba bantu bena mwi inkanda, mi ni keza kwako. I tayo yo Jolola, ba bike mwi zina lyako abo boba nihi njikuti babe ba mwina, sina hatuli umwina.

12 when I was with them in the world, I was keeping them in Your Name; I guarded those whom You have given to Me, and none of them were destroyed, except the son of the destruction, that the Writing may be fulfilled.

Hani ba sina nabo, ni baba bikite mwi zina lyako, lyo banihi. Ni baba silelezi, mi nanta yenke wabo ya ba sinyehi, kwanda ya mwana we nsinyeho, njo kuti mañolo e zuzilizwe.

13 And now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves;

Hanu ni keza kwako, kono ni wamba izi zintu mwi inkanda nji kuti babe ni ku saanga kwangu kwi zuzilizwe mu bali.

14 I have given Your word to them, and the world hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

Ni ba bahi inzwi lya ko, mi inkanda ibaba toyi kakuti kahena be nkanda, sina hani sali we nkanda.

15 I do not ask that You may take them out of the world, but that You may keep them out of the evil.

Kani kukumbili kuti uba zwise mwi inkanda kono uba wungule ku mubilala.

16 They are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

Kahena be inkanda, sina hani sali we inkanda.

17 sanctify them in Your truth, Your word is truth;

Ba kungule kumbali cho buniti. Inzwi lyako buniti.

18 as You sent Me into the world, I also sent them into the world;

Sina mo bani tumini mwi inkanda, linu nibaba tumi mwi inkanda.

19 and I sanctify Myself for them, that they also may be sanctified in truth themselves.

Che baka lyabo ni bali kunguli kumbali, mukuti abo beene nabo ba kungwilwe kumbali mubu niti.

20 And I do not ask in regard to these alone, but also in regard to those who will be believing in Me through their word,

Kani lapeli bulyo chaba, kono nabo bonse bani zumine kache nzwi lyabo.

21 that they all may be one, as You Father [are] in Me, and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.

Njo kuti bonse babe bamwina, sina iwe, Tayo, mwina mwa ngu, mi nina mwenu. Ni lapela kuti nabo babe mwetu njo kuti inkanda mwi zumine kuti ubani tumi.

22 And I have given to them the glory that You have given to Me, that they may be one as We are one—

Kutembwa kuna kobanihi, ni ba kubahi, njo kuti babe ba mwina, sina hatuli bamwina.

23 I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them as You loved Me.

I me mu baali, mi iwe mwangu. Njo kuti be zuzilizwe mu mwina, njo kuti inkanda izibe kuti uba ni tumi, mi uba ba suni, sina mo ba ni sunini.

24 Father, those whom You have given to Me, I will that where I am they also may be with Me, that they may behold My glory that You gave to Me, because You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

Tayo, Ni saka kuti abo bo banihi nabo babe name kwete nibe njo kuti ba bone ku tembwa kwangu, ko banihi. Mukuti ubani suni kuzwililila ku matangilo a ku bumbwa kwe inkanda.

25 Righteous Father, also the world did not know You, and I knew You, and these have known that You sent Me,

Itayo yo lukiti, inkanda kena iba kwizi, kono ni kwizi: mi aba bezi kuti ubani tumi.

26 and I made known to them Your Name, and will make known, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”

Ni be zibisi izina lya ko kubali, mi ni sili izibisa njo kuti ke lato lyo bani saki kalyo libe mubali, mi munibe mubali.”
