John 17
1 Jesus said these things, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said, "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may also glorify you;
Jesũ aarĩkia kuuga maũndũ macio, agĩtiira maitho akĩrora na igũrũ, akĩhooya, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Baba hĩndĩ nĩ nginyu. Goocithia Mũrũguo, nĩguo nake Mũrũguo akũgoocithie.
2 even as you gave him authority over all flesh, he will give everlasting life to all whom you have given him. (aiōnios g166)
Nĩgũkorwo nĩũmũheete ũhoti wa gwatha andũ othe, nĩguo arĩa othe ũmũheete amahe muoyo wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
3 This is everlasting life, that they may know you, the only true God, and him whom you sent, Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
Na rĩu ũyũ nĩguo muoyo wa tene na tene: Atĩ makũmenye, o Wee Ngai ũrĩa wa ma, na mamenye Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa ũtũmĩte. (aiōnios g166)
4 I glorified you on the earth by accomplishing the work which you have given me to do.
Nĩngũgoocithĩtie gũkũ thĩ na ũndũ wa kũrĩĩkia wĩra ũrĩa waheire ndute.
5 Now, Father, glorify me with your own self with the glory which I had with you before the world existed.
Na rĩu Baba, ngoocithia ndĩ mbere yaku na riiri ũrĩa ndaarĩ naguo hamwe nawe o mbere thĩ ĩtaanagĩa.
6 I revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word.
“Nĩnguũrĩirie andũ arĩa waheire gũkũ thĩ rĩĩtwa rĩaku. Acio maarĩ aku; nawe ũkĩĩhe o, nao nĩmathĩkĩire kiugo gĩaku.
7 Now they have known that all things whatever you have given me are from you,
Na rĩu nĩmamenyete atĩ indo iria ciothe ũheete ciumĩte kũrĩ wee.
8 for the words which you have given me I have given to them, and they received them, and knew for sure that I came forth from you, and they have believed that you sent me.
Nĩgũkorwo nĩndamaheire ciugo iria waheire, nao magĩciĩtĩkĩra. Nĩmamenyire hatarĩ nganja atĩ ndoimire kũrĩ wee, na magĩĩtĩkia atĩ wee nĩwe wandũmire.
9 I pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.
Acio nĩo ndĩrahoera. Ndirahoera andũ a gũkũ thĩ, no ndĩrahoera arĩa ũũheete, nĩgũkorwo nĩ aku.
10 All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them.
Kĩrĩa gĩothe ndĩ nakĩo nĩ gĩaku, na kĩrĩa gĩothe ũrĩ nakĩo nĩ gĩakwa. Naguo ũgooci nĩũũkĩte kũrĩ niĩ nĩ ũndũ wao.
11 I am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them through your name which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are.
Ndigũikara gũkũ thĩ rĩngĩ, no-o marĩ o gũkũ thĩ, na niĩ ndĩroka kũrĩ wee. Baba Mũtheru, magitĩre na ũhoti wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku, rĩĩtwa rĩrĩa waheire, nĩgeetha matuĩke ũmwe o ta ũrĩa ithuĩ tũrĩ ũmwe.
12 While I was with them, I kept them in your name which you have given me, and I guarded them, and not one of them perished, except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
Rĩrĩa ndĩraarĩ nao, nĩndĩramagitagĩra na ngamamenyerera na rĩĩtwa rĩu waheire. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũũrĩte o tiga ũrĩa wathĩrĩirwo kwanangwo nĩguo Maandĩko mahingio.
13 But now I come to you, and I say these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves.
“Rĩu ndĩroka kũrĩ wee, no maũndũ maya ndĩroiga ndĩ o gũkũ thĩ, nĩguo maiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno gĩakwa kĩrĩ gĩkinyanĩru kũna thĩinĩ wao.
14 I have given them your word. The world hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Nĩndĩmaheete kiugo gĩaku, nao andũ a gũkũ thĩ makamathũũra, nĩgũkorwo o ti a gũkũ thĩ rĩngĩ, o ta ũrĩa niĩ itarĩ wa gũkũ thĩ.
15 I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one.
Ihooya rĩakwa ti ũmarute gũkũ thĩ, no nĩ atĩ ũmagitagĩre kuuma kũrĩ ũrĩa mũũru.
16 They are not of the world even as I am not of the world.
O ti a gũkũ thĩ, o ta ũrĩa o na niĩ itarĩ wakuo.
17 Sanctify them in the truth. Your word is truth.
Maamũre, ũmatherie na ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma; ũhoro waku nĩguo ũhoro wa ma.
18 As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.
O ta ũrĩa wandũmire gũkũ thĩ, na niĩ noguo ndamatũma kũrĩ andũ a gũkũ thĩ.
19 For their sakes I sanctify myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth.
Ndĩĩtheretie nĩ ũndũ wao, nĩguo o nao matherio kũna nĩ ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma.
20 Not for these only do I pray, but for those also who believe in me through their word,
“Ningĩ to aya oiki ndĩrahoera. Ndĩrahoera o na arĩa angĩ makaanjĩtĩkia nĩ ũndũ wa ndũmĩrĩri ya aya,
21 that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.
nĩguo othe matuĩke ũmwe Baba, o ta ũrĩa we ũrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa na niĩ ndĩ thĩinĩ waku. O nao marogĩa thĩinĩ witũ nĩgeetha andũ a gũkũ thĩ metĩkie atĩ nĩwe ũndũmĩte.
22 The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one;
Nĩndĩmaheete riiri ũrĩa waheire, nĩguo matuĩke ũmwe o ta ũrĩa ithuĩ tũrĩ ũmwe,
23 I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one; that the world may know that you sent me, and loved them, even as you loved me.
niĩ ndĩ thĩinĩ wao, nawe ũrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa. Marotuĩka ũmwe kũna, nĩgeetha andũ a gũkũ thĩ mamenye atĩ nĩwe wandũmire, na atĩ nĩũmendete o ta ũrĩa ũnyendete.
24 Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me be with me where I am, that they may see my glory, which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.
“Baba, ngwenda arĩa ũũheete makorwo na niĩ harĩa ndĩ na mone riiri wakwa, riiri ũrĩa ũũheete nĩ ũndũ nĩwanyendete thĩ ĩtanombwo.
25 Righteous Father, the world hasn't known you, but I knew you; and these knew that you sent me.
“Baba Mũthingu, o na gũtuĩka andũ a gũkũ thĩ matikũũĩ-rĩ, niĩ nĩngũũĩ, nao nĩ moĩ atĩ nĩwe ũndũmĩte.
26 I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them."
Nĩngũmenyithanĩtie kũrĩ o, na nĩngũkĩrĩrĩria gũkũmenyithania, nĩgeetha wendani ũrĩa ũnyendete naguo ũikarage thĩinĩ wao na nĩguo o na niĩ mwene ngoragwo thĩinĩ wao.”
