John 17
1 When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come. Glorify Thy Son that the Son may glorify Thee;
Mgbe Jisọs kwusiri okwu ndị a, o leliri anya nʼeluigwe sị, “Nna, oge ahụ a kara aka eruola, nye Ọkpara gị otuto, ka Ọkpara gị nyekwa gị otuto.
2 even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind, so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life of the Ages. (aiōnios g166)
I nyela ya ikike nʼebe mmadụ niile nọ, na ike inye ndị niile i nyere ya ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
3 And in this consists the Life of the Ages--in knowing Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent. (aiōnios g166)
Nke a bụkwa ndụ ebighị ebi ahụ. Ka ha mata na naanị gị bụ Chineke nʼezie, matakwa Jisọs Kraịst onye ahụ i zitere nʼụwa. (aiōnios g166)
4 I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.
Enyere m gị otuto nʼụwa site nʼịrụzu ọrụ niile ị nyere m ka m rụọ.
5 And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence, with the glory that I had in Thy presence before the world existed.
Ma ugbu a, Nna, nye m otuto nʼihu gị, ụdị otuto ahụ m nwere nʼihu gị tupu e kee ụwa.
6 "I have revealed Thy perfections to the men whom Thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and Thou gavest them to me, and they have obeyed Thy message.
“Emere m ka ndị ahụ i siri nʼụwa kponye m mara aha gị. Ha bụ ndị nke gị, i nyere m ha, ha debekwara okwu gị.
7 Now they know that whatever Thou hast given me is from Thee.
Ugbu a, ha amarala na ihe niile i nyere m si nʼaka gị bịa.
8 For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them. And they have received them, and have known for certain that I came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou didst send me.
Ma ugbu a, enyela m ha okwu ahụ i nyere m, ha nabatakwara ya, marakwa nʼeziokwu na-esi m nʼebe ị nọ bịa. Ha kwenyekwara na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
9 "I am making request for them: for the world I do not make any request, but for those whom Thou hast given me. Because they are Thine,
Ana m ekpere ha ekpere, ọ bụghị nʼihi ụwa ka m na-ekpe ekpere. Kama ana m ekpe ekpere banyere ndị ahụ i nyere m, nʼihi na ha bụkwa ndị nke gị.
10 and everything that is mine is Thine, and everything that is Thine is mine; and I am crowned with glory in them.
Ihe niile m nwere bụ nke gị, ihe niile i nwere bụkwa nke m. E sitere na ha mee ka otuto m pụta ìhè.
11 I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even as we are.
Ugbu a, anọghịkwa nʼime ụwa, ma ha ka nọ nʼime ụwa, ana m alaghachikwute gị. Ya mere, Nna dị nsọ, chebe ha nke ọma site nʼike nke aha gị, bụ aha nke ahụ i nyere m, ka ha bụrụ otu dịka anyị onwe anyị si bụrụ otu.
12 While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--that the Scripture may be fulfilled.
Mgbe mụ na ha nọ nʼụwa, echebere m ha site nʼaha gị nke i nyere m. Echebekwara m ha, o nwekwaghị onye ọbụla nʼime ha lara nʼiyi, karịakwa onye ahụ bụ nwa nke ịla nʼiyi, ka e mezuo ihe akwụkwọ nsọ kwuru.
13 "But now I am coming to Thee, and I speak these words while I am in the world, in order that they may have my gladness within them filling their hearts.
“Ma ugbu a, ana m alọghachikwute gị, ma ana m ekwu ihe ndị a nʼụwa ugbu a ka ha nwee nʼọṅụ m, nʼebe o zuruoke nʼime ha.
14 I have given them Thy Message, and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
Enyela m ha okwu gị. Ma nʼihi ya, ụwa akpọọla ha asị. Nʼihi na ha abụghị ndị nke ụwa dị ka mụ onwe m na-abụghị onye nke ụwa.
15 I do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world, but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil one.
Ekpeghị m ekpere ka iwepụ ha nʼụwa, kama ka ịnapụta ha site nʼaka ajọ onye ahụ.
16 They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
Ha onwe ha abụghị ndị nke ụwa dị ka mụ onwe m na-abụkwaghị onye nke ụwa.
17 Make them holy in the truth: Thy Message is truth.
Were eziokwu doo ha nsọ, okwu gị bụ eziokwu.
18 Just as Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;
Dị ka i siri zite m nʼụwa, otu a ka m na-ezipụkwa ha nʼụwa.
19 and on their behalf I consecrate myself, in order that they may become perfectly consecrated in truth.
Ọ bụkwa nʼihi ha ka m jiri debe onwe m nsọ, ka ha onwe ha bụrụkwa ndị e doro nsọ nʼeziokwu.
20 "Nor is it for them alone that I make request. It is also for those who trust in me through their teaching;
“Ekpeghị m ekpere a nʼihi ndị a naanị. Kama ana m ekpekwa ekpere a nʼihi ndị niile ga-ekwere na mụ, site nʼokwu ha.
21 that they may all be one, even as Thou art in me, O Father, and I am in Thee; that they also may be in us; that the world may believe that Thou didst send me.
Ka ha niile bụrụ otu, Nna, dị ka ị nọ nʼime m mụ a nọrọ nʼime gị. Ka ha nọrọkwa nʼime anyị ka ụwa kwere na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
22 And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them, that they may be one, just as we are one:
Enyere m ha otuto nke i nyere m, ka ha bụrụ otu dị ka anyị onwe anyị si bụrụ otu;
23 I in them and Thou in me; that they may stand perfected in one; that the world may come to understand that Thou didst send me and hast loved them with the same love as that with which Thou hast loved me.
Mụ onwe m nʼime ha, gị onwe gị nʼime m. Ka e mee ka ha bụrụ otu nʼụzọ zuruoke, ka ụwa matakwa na ọ bụ gị zitere m, na ị hụkwara ha nʼanya dị ka ị si hụ m nʼanya.
24 "Father, those whom Thou hast given me--I desire that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see the glory--my glory--my gift from Thee, which Thou hast given me because Thou didst love me before the creation of the world.
“Nna, achọrọ m ka ndị niile i nyere m soro m nọrọ ebe m nọ. Ka ha hụ otuto m nke i nyere m nʼihi na ị hụrụ m nʼanya tupu atọọ ntọala nke ụwa.
25 And, righteous Father, though the world has failed to recognize Thee, I have known Thee, and these have perceived that Thou didst send me.
“Nna onye ezi omume, ụwa amaghị gị. Ma amaara m gị. Ndị a matakwara na ọ bụ gị zitere m.
26 And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known, that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."
Emekwara m ka ha mara aha gị. Aga m agakwa nʼihu ime ka ha mara ya. Ka ịhụnanya ahụ i nwere nʼebe m nọ dịgide nʼime ha, ka mụ onwe m nọgidekwa nʼime ha.”
