John 17
1 When Jesus had thus spoken, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father! the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that the Son may glorify thee;
Mgbe Jisọs kwusiri okwu ndị a, o leliri anya nʼeluigwe sị, “Nna, oge ahụ a kara aka eruola, nye Ọkpara gị otuto, ka Ọkpara gị nyekwa gị otuto.
2 according as thou gavest him authority over all flesh, that he should give everlasting life to all whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios g166)
I nyela ya ikike nʼebe mmadụ niile nọ, na ike inye ndị niile i nyere ya ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
3 And this is the everlasting life, to know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou didst send. (aiōnios g166)
Nke a bụkwa ndụ ebighị ebi ahụ. Ka ha mata na naanị gị bụ Chineke nʼezie, matakwa Jisọs Kraịst onye ahụ i zitere nʼụwa. (aiōnios g166)
4 I have glorified thee on the earth, having finished the work which thou gavest me to do;
Enyere m gị otuto nʼụwa site nʼịrụzu ọrụ niile ị nyere m ka m rụọ.
5 and now, Father! do thou glorify me with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Ma ugbu a, Nna, nye m otuto nʼihu gị, ụdị otuto ahụ m nwere nʼihu gị tupu e kee ụwa.
6 I manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word.
“Emere m ka ndị ahụ i siri nʼụwa kponye m mara aha gị. Ha bụ ndị nke gị, i nyere m ha, ha debekwara okwu gị.
7 Now they know that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee;
Ugbu a, ha amarala na ihe niile i nyere m si nʼaka gị bịa.
8 for I have given to them the words which thou hast given me; and they received them, and knew surely that I came forth from thee, and believed that thou didst send me.
Ma ugbu a, enyela m ha okwu ahụ i nyere m, ha nabatakwara ya, marakwa nʼeziokwu na-esi m nʼebe ị nọ bịa. Ha kwenyekwara na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
9 I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine;
Ana m ekpere ha ekpere, ọ bụghị nʼihi ụwa ka m na-ekpe ekpere. Kama ana m ekpe ekpere banyere ndị ahụ i nyere m, nʼihi na ha bụkwa ndị nke gị.
10 and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
Ihe niile m nwere bụ nke gị, ihe niile i nwere bụkwa nke m. E sitere na ha mee ka otuto m pụta ìhè.
11 And I am no longer in the world; and they are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father! keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one, even as we are.
Ugbu a, anọghịkwa nʼime ụwa, ma ha ka nọ nʼime ụwa, ana m alaghachikwute gị. Ya mere, Nna dị nsọ, chebe ha nke ọma site nʼike nke aha gị, bụ aha nke ahụ i nyere m, ka ha bụrụ otu dịka anyị onwe anyị si bụrụ otu.
12 While I was with them, I kept them in thy name which thou hast given me, and guarded them; and no one of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture may be fulfilled.
Mgbe mụ na ha nọ nʼụwa, echebere m ha site nʼaha gị nke i nyere m. Echebekwara m ha, o nwekwaghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha lara nʼiyi, karịakwa onye ahụ bụ nwa nke ịla nʼiyi, ka e mezuo ihe akwụkwọ nsọ kwuru.
13 But now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy made full in them.
“Ma ugbu a, ana m alọghachikwute gị, ma ana m ekwu ihe ndị a nʼụwa ugbu a ka ha nwee nʼọṅụ m, nʼebe o zuruoke nʼime ha.
14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Enyela m ha okwu gị. Ma nʼihi ya, ụwa akpọọla ha asị. Nʼihi na ha abụghị ndị nke ụwa dị ka mụ onwe m na-abụghị onye nke ụwa.
15 I do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from evil.
Ekpeghị m ekpere ka iwepụ ha nʼụwa, kama ka ịnapụta ha site nʼaka ajọ onye ahụ.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Ha onwe ha abụghị ndị nke ụwa dị ka mụ onwe m na-abụkwaghị onye nke ụwa.
17 Sanctify them in thy truth; thy word is truth.
Were eziokwu doo ha nsọ, okwu gị bụ eziokwu.
18 As thou didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world.
Dị ka i siri zite m nʼụwa, otu a ka m na-ezipụkwa ha nʼụwa.
19 And in their behalf I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in the truth.
Ọ bụkwa nʼihi ha ka m jiri debe onwe m nsọ, ka ha onwe ha bụrụkwa ndị e doro nsọ nʼeziokwu.
20 Yet not for these alone do I pray, but also for those who believe in me through their word;
“Ekpeghị m ekpere a nʼihi ndị a naanị. Kama ana m ekpekwa ekpere a nʼihi ndị niile ga-ekwere na mụ, site nʼokwu ha.
21 that they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me and I in thee, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that thou didst send me.
Ka ha niile bụrụ otu, Nna, dị ka ị nọ nʼime m mụ a nọrọ nʼime gị. Ka ha nọrọkwa nʼime anyị ka ụwa kwere na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
22 And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given them, that they may be one, even as we are one;
Enyere m ha otuto nke i nyere m, ka ha bụrụ otu dị ka anyị onwe anyị si bụrụ otu;
23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
Mụ onwe m nʼime ha, gị onwe gị nʼime m. Ka e mee ka ha bụrụ otu nʼụzọ zuruoke, ka ụwa matakwa na ọ bụ gị zitere m, na ị hụkwara ha nʼanya dị ka ị si hụ m nʼanya.
24 Father! as to that which thou hast given me, I desire that they also be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me; for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
“Nna, achọrọ m ka ndị niile i nyere m soro m nọrọ ebe m nọ. Ka ha hụ otuto m nke i nyere m nʼihi na ị hụrụ m nʼanya tupu atọọ ntọala nke ụwa.
25 Righteous Father! and yet the world knew thee not! but I knew thee, and these knew that thou didst send me.
“Nna onye ezi omume, ụwa amaghị gị. Ma amaara m gị. Ndị a matakwara na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
26 And I made known to them thy name, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
Emekwara m ka ha mara aha gị. Aga m agakwa nʼihu ime ka ha mara ya. Ka ịhụnanya ahụ i nwere nʼebe m nọ dịgide nʼime ha, ka mụ onwe m nọgidekwa nʼime ha.”
