John 10
1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
“Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti munhu asingapindi mudanga ramakwai napamukova, asi anokwira kuti apinde naparutivi, imbavha uye igororo.
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Munhu anopinda napamukova ndiye mufudzi wamakwai.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
Murindi anomuzarurira musuo, uye makwai anonzwa inzwi rake. Anodana makwai ake nezita agoatungamirira kunze.
4 When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
Kana achinge abudisa makwai ake ose, anofamba ari mberi kwawo, uye makwai ake anomutevera nokuti anoziva inzwi rake.
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
Asi haatongoteveri mutorwa; asi anotomutiza nokuti haazivi inzwi romweni.”
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
Jesu akataura mufananidzo uyu kwavari, asi havana kunzwisisa zvaakanga achivaudza.
7 Jesus therefore said unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Naizvozvo Jesu akatizve kwavari, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, ndini mukova wamakwai.
8 All that came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
Vose vakanditangira vaiva mbavha namakororo, asi makwai haana kuvanzwa.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and go out, and shall find pasture.
Ndini mukova; ani naani anopinda napandiri achaponeswa. Achapinda agobuda, uye achawana mafuro.
10 The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.
Mbavha inongouya kuzoba nokuuraya nokuparadza; ini ndakauya kuti ave noupenyu, uye ave nohwakazara.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd layeth down his life for the sheep.
“Ndini mufudzi akanaka. Mufudzi akanaka anorasira makwai ake upenyu hwake.
12 He that is a hireling, and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, beholdeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf snatcheth them, and scattereth [them]:
Mushandi haasi iye mufudzi nomwene wamakwai. Saka paanoona bere richiuya, anosiya makwai obva atiza. Ipapo bere rinobata boka ramakwai uye roaparadzira.
13 [he fleeth] because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
Munhu uyu anotiza nokuti mushandi zvake uye haana hanya namakwai.
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine own, and mine own know me,
“Ndini mufudzi wamakwai; ndinoziva makwai angu uye makwai angu anondiziva,
15 even as the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Baba sezvavanondiziva uye neni ndichiziva Baba, uye ndinorasira makwai angu upenyu hwangu.
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and they shall become one flock, one shepherd.
Ndina mamwe makwai asati ari edanga rino. Naiwo ndinofanira kuauyisawo. Naiwowo achanzwa inzwi rangu, uye achava boka rimwe nomufudzi mumwe chete.
17 Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
Chinoita kuti Baba vandide ndechokuti ndinorasira makwai angu upenyu hwangu, uye ndichahutorazve.
18 No one taketh it away from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment received I from my Father.
Hakuna munhu angahutora kwandiri, asi ndinohupa pachangu. Ndine simba rokuhurasa uye ndine simba rokuhutorazve. Uyu murayiro ndakaupiwa naBaba.”
19 There arose a division again among the Jews because of these words.
Ipapo vaJudha vakapesanazve nokuda kwamashoko aya.
20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?
Vazhinji vavo vakati, “Akabatwa nedhimoni uye anopenga. Seiko muchimuteerera?”
21 Others said, These are not the sayings of one possessed with a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
Asi vamwe vakati, “Aya haangavi mashoko omunhu ane dhimoni. Ko, dhimoni ringasvinudza meso ousingaoni here?”
22 And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: it was winter;
Ipapo Mutambo woKukumikidzwa kweTemberi paJerusarema wakasvika. Yainge iri nguva yechando,
23 and Jesus was walking in the temple in Solomon’s porch.
uye Jesu akanga ari mutemberi achifamba mubiravira raSoromoni.
24 The Jews therefore came round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou hold us in suspense? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
VaJudha vakanga vakamukomba, vakati, “Ucharamba uchitinetsa kusvikira riniko? Kana uri Kristu, tiudze pachena.”
25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believe not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, these bear witness of me.
Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndakakuudzai, asi hamutendi. Zvishamiso zvandinoita muzita raBaba vangu zvinondipupurira,
26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep.
asi hamutendi nokuti hamusi makwai angu.
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
Makwai angu anonzwa inzwi rangu; ini ndinoaziva, uye anonditevera.
29 My Father, which hath given [them] unto me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch [them] out of the Father’s hand.
Baba vangu, ivo vakaapa kwandiri, vakuru kuna vose; hakuna munhu angaabvuta muruoko rwaBaba vangu.
30 I and the Father are one.
Ini naBaba tiri vamwe.”
31 The Jews took up stones again to stone him.
VaJudha vakanongazve matombo kuti vamutake,
32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
asi Jesu akati kwavari, “Ndakakuratidzai mabasa esimba mazhinji kubva kuna Baba. Nderipiko basa ipapa ramunoda kunditakira namabwe?”
33 The Jews answered him, For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Vakamupindura vachiti, “Hatisi kukutakira basa ripi zvaro ipapa, asi nokuda kwokumhura Mwari, nokuti iwe, munhuwo zvake, unozviti uri Mwari.”
34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
Jesu akavapindura akati, “Ko, hazvina kunyorwa here muMurayiro wenyu, kuti ‘Ndakati muri vamwari’?
35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken),
Kana akavaidza ‘vamwari,’ avo shoko raMwari rakasvika kwavari, uye Rugwaro harungaputswi,
36 say ye of him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am [the] Son of God?
zvakadii kuno uyo akatsaurwa naBaba saiye wavo chaiye uye wavakatuma panyika? Seiko muchindipomera mhosva yokumhura, zvandati, ‘Ndiri Mwanakomana waMwari’?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
Musanditenda kana ndisina kuita zvinoitwa naBaba vangu.
38 But if I do them, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.
Asi kana ndichizviita, kunyange dai musinganditendi, tendai mabasa esimba, kuti mugoziva uye mugonzwisisa kuti Baba vari mandiri, uye ini ndiri muna Baba.”
39 They sought again to take him: and he went forth out of their hand.
Vakaedzazve kumubata, asi akavapunyuka.
40 And he went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John was at the first baptizing; and there he abode.
Ipapo Jesu akayambuka Jorodhani kunzvimbo yakanga ichibhabhatidzira Johani pamazuva okutanga. Akagara ikoko
41 And many came unto him; and they said, John indeed did no sign: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true.
uye vanhu vazhinji vakauya kwaari. Vakati, “Kunyange zvake Johani asina kumboita mabasa esimba, zvose zvakataurwa naJohani pamusoro pomurume uyu zvaiva zvechokwadi.”
42 And many believed on him there.
Uye panzvimbo iyo, vazhinji vakatenda kuna Jesu.
