John 17
1 These words spoke Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
Yesu mpwalamba bintu ibi, walalanga kwilu nekwambeti, “Cindi cilashiki Ta. Kamumupani bulemu mwanenu, kwambeti nendi Mwanenu amupe bulemu.
2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as 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 life eternal, that they may know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (aiōnios g166)
Buyumi butapu nikwinshiba njamwe kayi neYesu Klistu ngomwalatuma. (aiōnios g166)
4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
Ndamuletele bulemu pacishi capanshi pakupwisha mulimo ngomwalantuma.
5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thy own self 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 have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest to 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 have known 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 gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came from thee, and they have 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 them whom thou hast given to me; for they are thine.
“Ndabapaililinga. Nkandapaililinga cishi capanshi sobwe, nsombi ndapaililinga abo mbomwalampa pakwinga nibenu.
10 And all 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 now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thy own name those whom thou hast given to me, that they may be one, 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 in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest to me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
Mpondalikuba nabo, ndalikubasunga nengofu nshomwalampa. Ndalabacingilila cena kayi kuliya nambi umo walataika, kufunyakowa usa walikuba welela kutaika, kwambeti byonse byalalembwa binshike.
13 And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
“Lino ndesanga kuli njamwe. Ndambanga bintu ibi nkandicili panshi pano kwambeti, kukondwa kwakame kwisule mumyoyo yabo.
14 I have given to 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 pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the 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 through thy truth: thy word is truth.
Mubaswepeshe necancine ncine kwambeti babe benu. Maswi enu ecanci ncine.
18 As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
Mbuli ncemwalantuma ame pacishi capanshi pano, nenjame ndabatumu pacishi capanshi pano.
19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified through the truth.
Pacebo cabo ndalibenge kuli njamwe, kwambeti nabo balibenge kuli njamwe mucancine ncine.”
20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also who shall believe on 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 one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent 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 gavest to me I have given to 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; and 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, I will that they also, whom thou hast given to me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given to me: for thou didst love 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 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
Omwalulama Ta, cishi capanshi ciliya kumwinshiba sobwe, nsombi ame ndimwinshi, kayi aba bacinsheti njamwe mwalantuma.
26 And I have declared to them thy name, and will declare it: that the love which 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.
