John 10
1 "Truly, truly, I tell you, one who does not enter by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, that one is a thief and a robber.
“Yesu kawagambira, yoseri yakingira ndiri mulizizi lya kondolu kwa kupitira mlyangu, ira mulupenu na kwingira kwa njira yimonga, ayu ndo mwivi na mkwepula.
2 But one who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Muntu yakingira kwa kupitira pamulyangu, ayu ndo mweni mlolera gwa kondolu.
3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out.
Mlolera mlyangu kamvugulira yomberi, kondolu wapikinira liziwu lyakuwi, nayomberi kawashema kondolu wakuwi kila yumu litawu lyakuwi na kuwalonguziya kunja.
4 Whenever he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice.
Pakawalavia kunja kawalongulera palongolu, nawomberi kondolu wamfata, kwani walimana liziwu lyakuwi.
5 They will by no means follow a stranger, but will flee from him; for they do not know the voice of strangers."
Kondolu awa hapeni wawezi kumfata muntu gwingi, ira watuga toziya walimana ndiri liziwu lyakuwi.”
6 Yeshua spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand what he was telling them.
Yesu kawagambiriti mfanu agu, kumbiti womberi wavimana ndiri shakafiriti kuwagambira.
7 Yeshua therefore said to them again, "Truly, truly, I tell you, I am the sheep's door.
Su, Yesu katakula kayi, “Nakaka nuwagambireni, neni ndo mlyangu gwa kondolu.
8 All who came before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them.
Wamonga woseri walii wiziti pamberi pa neni ndo wivi na wakwepula, kumbiti kondolu wawapikinira ndiri.
9 I am the door. If anyone enters in by me, he will be saved, and will go in and go out, and will find pasture.
Neni ndo mlyangu. Yakingira kupitira neni hakalopoziwi, hakingiri na kulawa na hakapati maliziwu.
10 The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
Mwivi kizaga su kiwi na kalagi na kahalabisiyi. Neni niza mpati kuwera na ukomu, ukomu ukamilika.
11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
“Neni ndo mlolera muheri. Mlolera muheri kalaviyaga ukomu wakuwi kwa kondolu wakuwi.
12 He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.
Muntu gwa shibenamgongu, yomberi mlolera ndiri na wala kondolu wakuwi ndiri, pakamuwona liminyi kankwiza, kaleka kondolu na kutuga, liminyi kawabata wakondolu na kuwapalasiyanga.
13 And the hired hand flees because he is a hired hand and the sheep means nothing to him.
Muntu gwa shibenamgongu katuga toziya yomberi gwa shibenamgongu hera, hapeni kawaloleri wakondolu.
14 I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and my own know me;
Neni ndo mlolera muheri. Nuwamana wakondolu wangu nawomberi wamana neni,
15 even as the Father knows me, and I know the Father. I lay down my life for the sheep.
gambira Tati ntambu yakamana neni, naneni ntambu yanummana Tati. Neni ndaviya ukomu wangu kwajili ya womberi.
16 I have other sheep, which are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will hear my voice. They will become one flock with one shepherd.
Nana wakondolu wamonga yawaweriti ndiri mulizizi ali. Inazimu kuwajega viraa, womberi hawalipikiniri liziwu lya neni, na hakuweri shipinga shimu na mlolera yumu.
17 Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
“Tati kanfira neni toziya ndaviya ukomu wangu, su mpati kuwuwanka kayi.
18 No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down by myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."
Kwahera muntu yakampoka ukomu wangu, neni nuwulaviya mweni. Nana uwezu wa kuwulaviya na kuwutola kayi. Hangu ndo Tati kandagaliriti ntendi.”
19 A division arose again among the Jewish people because of these words.
Kuwera kayi na malekaniru pakati pa Wayawudi toziya ya visoweru avi.
20 Many of them said, "He has a demon, and is insane. Why do you listen to him?"
Wantu wavuwa watakuliti, “Kana shamshera, kayi kanalukwali! Gwa shishi kumpikinira?”
21 Others said, "These are not the sayings of one possessed by a demon. It is not possible for a demon to open the eyes of the blind, is it?"
Wamonga walonga, “Shisoweru ashi sha muntu kana shamshera ndiri. Hashi, shamshera kaweza ashi kuponiziya muntu kana lwisi?”
22 At that time Hanukkah took place in Urishlim.
Aku Yerusalemu kuweriti na msambu gwa kumlavilira Mlungu Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, shipindi ashi shiweriti sha mpepu.
23 It was winter, and Yeshua was walking in the temple, in Shelemun's porch.
Yesu kaweriti kankugendagenda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu pahala wapashemiti Mdamu gwa Selemani.
24 The Jewish leaders therefore came around him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Meshikha, tell us plainly."
Su, Wayawudi wamzyengeta Yesu, wamkosiya, “Hagutuleki pota na nakaka mpaka ndii? Gutugambiri nakaka pota kufifa, Hashi, gwenga ndo Kristu?”
25 Yeshua answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, these testify about me.
Yesu kawankula, “Nuwagambireni kala, kumbiti mnjimira ndiri. Lihengu lyantenda neni kwa uwezu wa Tati gwangu wakuntakuziya.
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
Kumbiti mwenga mnjimira ndiri toziya mwenga mwa kondolu wa neni ndiri.
27 As I said to you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
Wakondolu wangu wapikinira liziwu lyangu, neni nuwamana, nawomberi wanfati.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.
Tati gwangu ndo mweni yakanupiti hawa nayomberi ndo mkulu kuliku woseri. Kwahera yakaweza kuwawusiya mmawoku mwakuwi.
30 I and the Father are one."
Neni na Tati, twayumu.”
31 Therefore the Jewish leaders took up stones again to stone him.
Su, Wayawudi watola mabuwi wamgumi.
32 Yeshua answered them, "I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of those works do you stone me?"
Yesu kawagambira, “Nuwalanguziyeni mahengu gavuwa kulawa kwa Tati. Nuwatendera shishi shamfira kung'uma na mabuwi?”
33 The Jewish leaders answered him, "We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy: because you, being a man, make yourself God."
Wayawudi wamwankula, “Hapeni tukugumi kwajili ya matendu maheri, kumbiti kwa kumwigilanga Mlungu! Gwenga ndo muntu hera kumbiti mweni gwenga gulitenda kuwera Mlungu.”
34 Yeshua answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, you are gods?'
Yesu kawankula, “Walembiti Mumalagaliru genu, Neni nonga, ‘mwenga ndo milungu?’
35 If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),
Mlungu kawashemiti milungu walii wawapanana ujumbi wakuwi, natwenga tuvimana handa Malembu Mananagala gatakula nakaka mashaka goseri.
36 do you say of him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, 'You blaspheme,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God?'
Kumbiti neni, Tati ndo kansyaguliti na kantumiti pasipanu. Iwera ashi mung'ambira neni nigilanga toziya ntakuliti ‘Neni Namwana gwa Mlungu?’
37 If I do not do the works of my Father, do not believe me.
Namunjimira neni, pamwona ntenda ndiri vitwatira vya Tati gwangu.
38 But if I do them, though you do not believe me, believe the works; that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."
Kumbiti pantenda vitwatira avi, ata pamunjimira ndiri neni, muvijimiri ata vitwatira vyantenda, su mpati kuvimana nakaka kulonga Tati ka mngati mwangu na neni namngati mwa Tati.”
39 Now they sought again to seize him, and he went out of their hand.
Wajeriti kayi kumbata Yesu kumbiti kawukiti pakati pawu.
40 He went away again beyond the Yurdinan into the place where Yukhanan was baptizing at first, and there he stayed.
Yesu kagenda kayi kumwambu ku lushemba Yoridani, pahala Yohani pakaweriti kankubatiza, kalikaliti aku.
41 Many came to him. They said, "Yukhanan indeed did no sign, but everything that Yukhanan said about this man is true."
Wantu wavuwa wamgenderiti pawalonga, “Yohani katenda ndiri liuzauza lyoseri, ira goseri Yohani gakatakuliti kuusu muntu ayu ndo nakaka.”
42 And many believed in him there.
Na wantu wavuwa pahala palii wamjimira.
