John 15
1 I/we to be the/this/who vine the/this/who true and the/this/who father me the/this/who farmer to be
“Mimi ni mzabibu wa kweli, na Baba yangu ndiye mkulima.
2 all branch in/on/among I/we not to bear/lead fruit to take up it/s/he and all the/this/who fruit to bear/lead to prune it/s/he in order that/to fruit greater to bear/lead
Yeye huliondoa ndani yangu kila tawi lisilozaa matunda, na kila tawi lizaalo hulisafisha lipate kuzaa zaidi.
3 already you clean to be through/because of the/this/who word which to speak you
Ninyi mmekwisha kuwa safi kwa sababu ya ule ujumbe niliowaambieni.
4 to stay in/on/among I/we I/we and in/on/among you as/just as the/this/who branch no be able fruit to bear/lead away from themself if not (to stay *N(k)O*) in/on/among the/this/who vine thus(-ly) nor you if not in/on/among I/we (to stay *N(k)O*)
Kaeni ndani yangu, nami nikae ndani yenu. Tawi haliwezi peke yake kuzaa matunda lisipokaa katika mzabibu hali kadhalika nanyi hamwezi kuzaa matunda msipokaa ndani yangu.
5 I/we to be the/this/who vine you the/this/who branch the/this/who to stay in/on/among I/we I/we and in/on/among it/s/he this/he/she/it to bear/lead fruit much that/since: since without I/we no be able to do/make: do none
“Mimi ni mzabibu, nanyi ni matawi yake. Akaaye ndani yangu, nami ndani yake, huyo atazaa matunda mengi, maana bila mimi hamwezi kufanya chochote.
6 if not one (to stay *N(k)O*) in/on/among I/we to throw: throw out/outside(r) as/when the/this/who branch and to dry and to assemble it/s/he and toward the/this/who fire to throw: throw and to kindle/burn
Mtu yeyote asipokaa ndani yangu hutupwa nje kama tawi litupwalo nje hata likakauka. Watu huliokota tawi la namna hiyo na kulitupa motoni liungue.
7 if to stay in/on/among I/we and the/this/who declaration me in/on/among you to stay which if to will/desire (to ask *N(k)O*) and to be you
Mkikaa ndani yangu na maneno yangu yakikaa ndani yenu, basi, ombeni chochote mtakacho nanyi mtapewa.
8 in/on/among this/he/she/it to glorify the/this/who father me in order that/to fruit much to bear/lead and (to be *N(k)O*) I/we disciple
Baba yangu hutukuzwa kama mkizaa matunda mengi na kuwa wanafunzi wangu.
9 as/just as to love me the/this/who father I/we and you to love to stay in/on/among the/this/who love the/this/who I/we
Mimi nimewapenda ninyi kama vile Baba alivyonipenda mimi. Kaeni katika pendo langu.
10 if the/this/who commandment me to keep: observe to stay in/on/among the/this/who love me as/just as I/we the/this/who commandment the/this/who father me to keep: observe and to stay it/s/he in/on/among the/this/who love
Mkizishika amri zangu mtakaa katika pendo langu, kama vile nami nilivyozishika amri za Baba yangu na kukaa katika pendo lake.
11 this/he/she/it to speak you in order that/to the/this/who joy the/this/who I/we in/on/among you (to be *N(K)O*) and the/this/who joy you to fulfill
Nimewaambieni mambo haya ili furaha yangu ikae ndani yenu, na furaha yenu ikamilike.
12 this/he/she/it to be the/this/who commandment the/this/who I/we in order that/to to love one another as/just as to love you
Hii ndiyo amri yangu: pendaneni; pendaneni kama nilivyowapenda ninyi.
13 great this/he/she/it love none to have/be in order that/to one the/this/who soul: life it/s/he to place above/for the/this/who friendly/friend it/s/he
Hakuna upendo mkuu zaidi kuliko upendo wa mtu atoaye uhai wake kwa ajili ya rafiki zake.
14 you friendly/friend me to be if to do/make: do (which *n(o)*) (just as/how much *K*) I/we to order you
Ninyi ni rafiki zangu mkifanya ninayowaamuru.
15 no still to say: call you slave that/since: since the/this/who slave no to know which? to do/make: do it/s/he the/this/who lord: master you then to say friendly/friend that/since: since all which to hear from/with/beside the/this/who father me to make known you
Ninyi siwaiti tena watumishi, maana mtumishi hajui anachofanya bwana wake. Lakini mimi nimewaita ninyi rafiki, kwa sababu nimewajulisha yote ambayo nimeyasikia kutoka kwa Baba yangu.
16 no you me to select but I/we to select you and to place you in order that/to you to go and fruit to bear/lead and the/this/who fruit you to stay in order that/to (which one *NK(o)*) if to ask the/this/who father in/on/among the/this/who name me to give you
Ninyi hamkunichagua mimi; mimi niliwachagueni na kuwatuma mwende mkazae matunda, matunda yadumuyo, naye Baba apate kuwapa ninyi chochote mumwombacho kwa jina langu.
17 this/he/she/it to order you in order that/to to love one another
Basi, amri yangu kwenu ndiyo hii: pendaneni.
18 if the/this/who world you to hate to know that/since: that I/we first: previous you to hate
“Kama ulimwengu ukiwachukia ninyi, kumbukeni kwamba umenichukia mimi kabla haujawachukia ninyi.
19 if out from the/this/who world to be the/this/who world if the/this/who one's own/private to love that/since: since then out from the/this/who world no to be but I/we to select you out from the/this/who world through/because of this/he/she/it to hate you the/this/who world
Kama mngalikuwa watu wa ulimwengu, ulimwengu ungaliwapenda ninyi kama watu wake. Lakini kwa vile ninyi si wa ulimwengu, ila mimi nimewachagueni kutoka ulimwenguni, kwa sababu hiyo ulimwengu unawachukieni.
20 to remember the/this/who word which I/we to say you no to be slave great the/this/who lord: master it/s/he if I/we to pursue and you to pursue if the/this/who word me to keep: observe and the/this/who you to keep: observe
Kumbukeni niliyowaambieni: mtumishi si mkuu zaidi kuliko bwana wake. Ikiwa wamenitesa mimi, watawatesa na ninyi pia; kama wameshika neno langu, watalishika na lenu pia.
21 but this/he/she/it all to do/make: do (toward *no*) (you *N(k)O*) through/because of the/this/who name me that/since: since no to know the/this/who to send me
Lakini hayo yote watawatendeeni ninyi kwa sababu ya jina langu, kwani hawamjui yeye aliyenituma.
22 if: not not to come/go and to speak it/s/he sin no to have/be now then pretense no to have/be about the/this/who sin it/s/he
Kama nisingalikuja na kusema nao wasingalikuwa na hatia; lakini sasa hawawezi kujitetea kwamba hawana dhambi.
23 the/this/who I/we to hate and the/this/who father me to hate
Anayenichukia mimi, anamchukia na Baba yangu pia.
24 if: not the/this/who work not to do/make: do in/on/among it/s/he which none another (to do/make: do *N(k)O*) sin no to have/be now then and to see: see and to hate and I/we and the/this/who father me
Kama nisingalifanya kwao mambo ambayo hakuna mtu mwingine amekwisha yafanya wasingalikuwa na hatia; lakini sasa wameona niliyoyafanya wakinichukia mimi, wakamchukia na Baba yangu pia.
25 but in order that/to to fulfill the/this/who word the/this/who in/on/among the/this/who law it/s/he to write that/since: that to hate me freely
Na hivi ni lazima yatimie yale yaliyoandikwa katika Sheria yao: Wamenichukia bure!
26 when(-ever) (then *ko*) to come/go the/this/who counsellor which I/we to send you from/with/beside the/this/who father the/this/who spirit/breath: spirit the/this/who truth which from/with/beside the/this/who father to depart that to testify about I/we
“Atakapokuja huyo Msaidizi nitakayemtuma kwenu kutoka kwa Baba, huyo Roho wa kweli atokaye kwa Baba, yeye atanishuhudia mimi.
27 and you then to testify that/since: since away from beginning with/after I/we to be
Nanyi pia mtanishuhudia kwa kuwa mmekuwa nami tangu mwanzo.
