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;
Yesu mpwalamba bintu ibi, walalanga kwilu nekwambeti, “Cindi cilashiki Ta. Kamumupani bulemu mwanenu, kwambeti nendi Mwanenu amupe bulemu.
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)
Pakwinga mwalamupa ngofu shakwendelesha bantu bonse kwambeti ape buyumi butapu kuli bonse mbomwalamupa. (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)
Buyumi butapu nikwinshiba njamwe kayi neYesu Klistu ngomwalatuma. (aiōnios g166)
4 I have glorified thee on the earth, having finished the work which thou gavest me to do;
Ndamuletele bulemu pacishi capanshi pakupwisha mulimo ngomwalantuma.
5 and now, Father! do thou glorify me with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Neco Ta kamumpani bulemu pacino cindi ncendesanga kulinjamwe. Bulemu busa mbondalikukute kacitana cilengwa cishi.”
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.
“Balamwishibi cena abo mbomwalampa pano pacishicapanshi, balikuba benu, nsombi mwalampa. Kayi balakonka maswi enu.
7 Now they know that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee;
Lino bacinshi kwambeti byonse mbyomwalampa byalafuma kulinjamwe.
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.
Pakwinga ndalabeisha maswi ngomwalangambila kayi balatambula. Neco bacinshi kwambeti ndalafuma kuli njamwe, kayi bashoma kwambeti njamwe mwalantuma.
9 I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine;
“Ndabapaililinga. Nkandapaililinga cishi capanshi sobwe, nsombi ndapaililinga abo mbomwalampa pakwinga nibenu.
10 and all things that are mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
Byonse mbyonkute nibyenu, kayi byenu byonse nibyakame, neco nkute kupewa bulemu mulyendibo.
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.
Lino ndesanga kulinjamwe. Nteshi mbenganga mucishi capanshi sobwe, ndesanga kulinjamwe, nsombi nabo mobacili. Ta omwaswepa kamubasunga mulina lyenu ndyomwalampa, kwambeti babeti umo mbuli njafwe ncetuli umo
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.
Mpondalikuba nabo, ndalikubasunga nengofu nshomwalampa. Ndalabacingilila cena kayi kuliya nambi umo walataika, kufunyakowa usa walikuba welela kutaika, kwambeti byonse byalalembwa binshike.
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.
“Lino ndesanga kuli njamwe. Ndambanga bintu ibi nkandicili panshi pano kwambeti, kukondwa kwakame kwisule mumyoyo yabo.
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.
Ndabeyishi maswi enu. nsombi cishi cilabapata, pakwinga nabo baliya cibusa necishi capanshi, mbuli ame ncondababula cibusa ne cishi capanshi.
15 I do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from evil.
Nkandasengenga kwambeti mubafunye mucishi capanshi sobwe, nsombi kwambeti mubacingilile kumulwani.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Nabo ntebo bapacishi capanshi, mbuli ame ncendabula kuba wapa cishi capanshi.
17 Sanctify them in thy truth; thy word is truth.
Mubaswepeshe necancine ncine kwambeti babe benu. Maswi enu ecanci ncine.
18 As thou didst send me into the world, I also sent them into the world.
Mbuli ncemwalantuma ame pacishi capanshi pano, nenjame ndabatumu pacishi capanshi pano.
19 And in their behalf I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in the truth.
Pacebo cabo ndalibenge kuli njamwe, kwambeti nabo balibenge kuli njamwe mucancine ncine.”
20 Yet not for these alone do I pray, but also for those who believe in me through their word;
Nkandapaililinga aba bonka sobwe, nsombi bonse beshibakanshome pacebo ca mulumbe wabo.
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.
Ndabapaililinga kwambeti bonse bakabebamo. Mbuli amwe Ta ncomuli mulinjame, kayi nenjame ndimulinjamwe nabo bekale muli njafwe. Neco bantu bonse bakashome kwambeti mwalantuma.
22 And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given them, that they may be one, even as we are one;
Ndabapa bulemu mbomwalampa, kwambeti babe bamo, babe mbuli afwe ncetuli bamo.
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.
Ame njikale mulyendibo, nenjamwe muli njame kwambeti babe bamo cancine ncine. Neco bantu bonse nibakenshibe kwambeti njamwe mwalantuma, kayi mubasuni mbuli ncomunsuni.
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.
Ndandangeti, abo mbomwalampa babe pamo nenjame uko nkoshi nkabe. Ndandangeti babone bulemu bwakame mbomwalampa, pakwinga mwalansuna kendi nkacitana cilengwa cishi capanshi.
25 Righteous Father! and yet the world knew thee not! but I knew thee, and these knew that thou didst send me.
Omwalulama Ta, cishi capanshi ciliya kumwinshiba sobwe, nsombi ame ndimwinshi, kayi aba bacinsheti njamwe mwalantuma.
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.
Ndalabenshibisha Lina lyenu, kayi ninkapitilishe kubeyisha kwambeti lusuno ndomukute palinjame lube mulyendibo, kwambeti nenjame mbe mulyendibo.
