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,
Yesu bwe yamala okwogera ebyo n’ayimusa amaaso ge n’atunula eri eggulu, n’ayogera nti, “Kitange ekiseera kituuse. Gulumiza Omwana wo, n’omwana alyoke akugulumize,
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)
nga bwe wamuwa obuyinza ku balina omubiri bonna, bonna be wamuwa alyoke abawe obulamu obutaggwaawo. (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)
Buno bwe bulamu obutaggwaawo, okutegeera ggwe Katonda omu ow’amazima, n’oyo gwe watuma, Yesu Kristo. (aiōnios g166)
4 I glorified You on the earth, having completed the work that You have given Me, that I should do.
Nkugulumizizza ku nsi, omulimu gwe wantuma okukola, ngumalirizza.
5 And now, glorify Me, You Father, with Yourself, with the glory that I had with You before the world was;
Kale kaakano, Kitange, ngulumiza wamu naawe mu kitiibwa ekyo kye nnali nakyo ng’ensi tennabeerawo.”
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;
“Njolesezza erinnya lyo eri abantu be wampa okuva mu nsi. Baali ba nsi naye n’obampa. Baali babo n’obampa era bakkirizza ekigambo kyo.
7 now they have known that all things, as many as You have given to Me, are from You,
Bategedde nga buli kye nnina kiva gy’oli,
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.
kubanga buli kye wandagira nkibayigirizza ne bakitegeera era bategeeredde ddala nga nava gy’oli, era ne bakkiriza nga ggwe wantuma.
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,
Mbasabira. Sisabira nsi, naye nsabira abo be wampa kubanga babo.
10 and all Mine are Yours, and Yours [are] Mine, and I have been glorified in them;
Ng’ebintu byonna bwe biri ebyange ate era nga bibyo, era ne bibyo nga byange, bampeesa ekitiibwa.
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];
Nze sikyali mu nsi, naye bo bali mu nsi, ate nga nzija gy’oli. Kitange Omutukuvu, be wampa bakuume mu linnya lyo, balyoke babeere bumu nga ffe bwe tuli obumu.
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.
Bwe mbadde nabo, abo be wampa mbakuumye mu linnya lyo, ne watabaawo azikirira, okuggyako omwana ow’okubula, ekyawandiikibwa kiryoke kituukirire.”
13 And now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilled in themselves;
“Nange kaakano nzija gy’oli, era mbabuulidde ebintu bino nabo babe n’essanyu lyange nga lituukiridde mu bo.
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;
Mbawadde ekigambo kyo, ensi n’ebakyawa kubanga si ba nsi nga Nze bwe siri wa nsi.
15 I do not ask that You may take them out of the world, but that You may keep them out of the evil.
Sikusaba kubaggya mu nsi, naye nkusaba obakuume eri omubi.
16 They are not of the world, as I am not of the world;
Si ba nsi nga nange bwe siri wa nsi.
17 sanctify them in Your truth, Your word is truth;
Obatukuze mu mazima; ekigambo kyo ge mazima.
18 as You sent Me into the world, I also sent them into the world;
Nga bwe wantuma mu nsi, nange bwe ntyo mbatuma mu nsi.
19 and I sanctify Myself for them, that they also may be sanctified in truth themselves.
Era neetukuza ku lwabwe nabo balyoke batukuzibwe mu mazima.”
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,
“Sisabira bano bokka naye nsabira n’abo abanzikiriza olw’ekigambo kyabwe,
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.
bonna babeere bumu, nga ggwe Kitange bw’oli mu Nze, nange nga ndi mu ggwe, nabo babeerenga mu ffe, ensi eryoke ekkirize nga ggwe wantuma.
22 And I have given to them the glory that You have given to Me, that they may be one as We are one—
Mbawadde ekitiibwa kye wampa, balyoke babeere bumu nga ffe bwe tuli obumu.
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.
Nze nga ndi mu bo, era naawe ng’oli mu Nze balyoke bafuukire ddala omuntu omu. Ensi eryoke etegeere nga ggwe wantuma era nti obaagala nga bw’onjagala.”
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.
“Kitange, bano be wampa njagala mbeere nabo we ndi balyoke bategeere ekitiibwa kyange kye wampa kubanga wanjagala, ng’ensi tennatondebwa.
25 Righteous Father, also the world did not know You, and I knew You, and these have known that You sent Me,
“Ayi Kitange Omutukuvu, ensi teyakumanya, kyokka Nze nkumanyi era n’abayigirizwa bano bamanyi nga ggwe wantuma.
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.”
Era mbayigirizza ne bamanya erinnya lyo, era nzija kwongera okubamanyisa okwagala kwo kw’onjagala, kulyoke kubeerenga mu bo, era nange mbeere mu bo.”
