< John 14 >
1 [Jesus continued by saying to us], “Stop being anxious/worried. Keep on trusting in God (OR, You are trusting in God); also keep trusting in me.
Oganje aguleshe omwoyo gwaho abhe ahwalangane. Ohumweteshela Ongolobhe neteshele nane.
2 Where my Father is [in heaven] there is plenty of room! If that were not true, I would have told you. I am about to go [there] to prepare a place for you.
Mu nyumba ya Daada wane muli mabhombo minji agakhale; nkashe semugali esho hande ebhozezye, afuatanaje embala abhalenganyizye apakhale awe.
3 And because I will go [there] and prepare a place for you, I will return and take you there to be with me. I will do that so that you may also be where I am.
Nkashe embale nabhalenganyizye nayenza nantele abhakaribizye hwa line, aje pendi ane namwe mubhanje.
4 You know the road to the place where I am going.”
Mumenye idala hwembala.”
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. [So] how can we know the road?”
O Tomaso abhozezye oYesu, “Gosi, setimenye hwobhala; Aje! Tibhalimanye bhole idala?
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the road [MET] [to where my Father is]. I am the [one who reveals] [MET] the truth [about God] and the [one who gives eternal] life [to people]. I am the only one who can [enable people] to come to [my] Father. There is no other way.
O Yesu abhozezye, “Ane endili dala, lyoli, no womi; nomo wagenza hwa Daada ila ashilile huline.
7 If you [really] knew who I was, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and [it is as though] you have seen him.”
Nkashe mugamenye ane, handamumenye no Daada wane nantele; ahwande esalezi na hwendelele muhamanya na mulolile omwane.”
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us your Father and that will be enough for us!”
O Philipo abhozya oYesu, “Gosi, tilanje Odaada, esho shibhabhe shitiyiye.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Philip, I have been with you for a long time. So (surely you should know who I [really am]!/why have you not come to know who I [really am]?) [RHQ] Those who have seen me, [it is as though] they have seen [my] Father. So (why do you say ‘Show us [your] Father’?/you should not say ‘Show us [your] Father’!) [RHQ]
O Yesu abhozya, “Sendi pandwemo namwe hu muda otali, no oliseele somenye ane, Philipo? Wawonti wandolile ane alolile Odaada; shili bhole oyanga, 'Tilanje Odaada'?
10 Do you not [RHQ] believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father, and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me? The messages that I tell you do not come from me. They come from my Father, who has a close relationship with me. He is enabling me to [teach these things, and] to perform the miracles that he [wants me to perform].
Semuhweteshela aje ane endi muhati ya Daada, oDaada ali muhati yane? Amazu geyanga hulimwe seyanga kulengana nane nene; baadala yakwe, Odaada wa hwizya mhati yane abhomba embombo yakwe.
11 Believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me. If you do not believe that just because of what I say, believe it because of the miracles themselves [that I have done].
Neteshele ane, aje ehwendi muhati ya Daada, no Daada ahweli mhati yane; shesho neteshe ane afutane nembombo zyane eshi.
12 Listen to this carefully: [You] who trust in me will do the [kinds of] miracles [that I have done]. [Because of what I will do for you] (OR, [Because I will send God’s Spirit to you]) after I go to my Father, you will be able to do [miracles] that will be greater than [the ones I have done].
Etesheli, etesheli, embabhozya, omwane waneteshela, ane embombo zila zyebhomba, aibhomba embombo ezyo wope nantele na aibhomba hata embombo engosi afuatanaje embala hwa Daada.
13 And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show [you] how great [my] Father is.
Hahonti hamulabha hwitawa lyane, embabhombe aje Odaada nkamwamihwe hwa Mwana.
14 Anything that you ask [my Father to do, anything that you ask] with my [authority] [MTY], I will do.”
Nkashe mulabhe ahantu hahonti hwi tawa lyane, eho embabhombe.
15 “If you love me, you will do what I have commanded you.
Nkashe mubhangane, mubhazighate endajizyo zyane.
16 Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn )
Nane embahulabhe Odaada, Wope anzabhapele omwavwi wamwabho aje abhe pandwemo namwe wilawila, (aiōn )
17 [I am talking about] the Spirit, who [will teach you God’s] truth. He will be with you forever. Those who are opposed to God [MTY] cannot receive him, because they cannot understand what he [does], and they cannot know who he is. But you know who he is, because he is with you and he will be inside you.
Ompempo we lyoli. Ensi sewezizye ahuposhele omwane afuatana naje seuhulola, au humemwe omwene, ata sheshi amwe mumenyo omene, afuatane na aibha muhati yenyu.
18 [When I leave you], I will not let you be alone/helpless [MET]. [When I send the Spirit, it will be like] I am coming back to you (OR, [When I rise from the dead], I will come back to you.)
Senaibhaleha mubhene; Naiwela hulimwe.
19 Soon those who do not belong to God [MTY] will not see me any more. But [when the Spirit comes to you, it will be as though] you will be seeing me again (OR, But [after I become alive again], you will see me again.) Because I will be alive again, you also will have [eternal] life.
Hu nsiku endodo, ensi seyayindola nantele, ila amwe mundola. Afuatane naje ahwizya namwe mwaizya nantele.
20 At that time you will know that I have a close relationship with my Father, and you will have a close relationship with me, and I will have a close relationship with you.
Hwi siku elyo mwaimanya aje ane ehwendi muhati ya Daada, naje amwe muli muhati yane, naje ane endi muhati yenyu.
21 Those who have accepted my commands and obey them are the people who love me. My Father will love those who love me. I also will love them, and I will fully reveal to them [what I am like].”
Wawonti wakhata endajizyo na zibhombe, yayola omo wangene ene na wangene ane; na wangene ane aiganwa no Daada wane, naihugana na naihwibhonesya ane nene hwa mwene.”
22 Then Judas spoke to him. He was not Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [but instead a disciple whose other name was Thaddeus]. He said, “Lord, what has happened so that you can fully reveal to us what you are like, and not reveal that to those who do not belong to God [MTY]?”
O Yuda (siyo Iskariote) abhozya oYesu, “Gosi, Aje! Yenu yebha fumile aje obhahwibhonesye wewe?
23 Jesus replied to him, “Those who love me will obey what I have told them. My Father will [also] love them. It is those people whom my Father and I will [be able to] come to and (live with/have a personal relationship with).
O Yesu ayanjile ajile, “Nkashe wawonti wangene, abhakhate izu lyane. Odaada wane anza hugane, na tibhahwenze hwa mwene na tibhabheshe okhalo gwetu pandwemo no mwahale.
24 But those who do not love me will not obey what I have told them. [So I cannot reveal to them what I am really like]. These words that I am telling you have not come just from me. They came from [my] Father, the one who sent me.
Wawonti wasangene ane, sakhata amuzu gane. Izu lya mhonvwa se lya line ila Daada wantumile.
25 I have told you all these things while I am still with you.
Enjanjile enongwa ezi hwalimwe, omuda gwe hwizya pandwemo namwe.
26 But [my] Father will send the Holy Spirit. He is the one who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. He will come with my authority [MTY]. He will teach you all of [God’s truth that you need to know]. He will also cause you to remember all the things that I have told you.
Ata sheshi, Mfariji, Ompepo Ofinjile, lyane Odaada aihutuma hwitawa lyane, aibhasambelezya enongwa zyonti na aibhabheha aje mkoboshe gonti gehayanjile hulimwe.
27 As I leave you, I am causing you to have [inner] peace. This [inner] peace comes from me. I am not causing you to have something that those who do not belong to God [MTY] can give you. [So] stop being anxious/worried, and do not be afraid.
Olusongwo embapele olusongwo lwane amwe. Sembapele na ensi sepela. Muganje abheshe amoyo genyu abhe no walangano, no bhonga.
28 You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, but [later] I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going back to [my] Father, because [my] Father is greater than I am, [and there he will honor me and will send the Spirit to you].
Mwahonvwezye shila shehabhabhozezye, esogola nantele naiwela hulimwe.' Nkashe mugangene ane, mwenzabhe no losongwo afuatanaje embala hwa Daada, afuatanaje Odaada gosi ashile ane.
29 I have told you [these things now] before they happen, so that when they happen you will believe [that what I said is true].
Esalezi yanje namwe amazu gaminji, afuatanaje ogosi wensi ene ahwenza omwene saali ne nguvu pamwanya yane.
30 I will not [be able to] talk to you much longer, because what happens to me will be as though [Satan], the ruler of this world, is coming [to attack me]. But he has no [control over what happens to] me.
Sembayanje namwe amazu gaminji, afuatanaje ogosi wensi ene ahwenza omwene saali ne nguvu pamwanya yane,
31 Instead, the people who do not belong to God [MTY] must learn [from what happens to me] that I love [my] Father, and I am doing the things that he has commanded me to do. Now, let’s get up and leave here.”
aje ensi epate amanye aje egene Odaada, ehomba hala Odaada handajizya ane, nanshi shila shampiye endajizyo. Bhoshi, tifume apantu epa.
