John 14
1 “Don’t let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.
Yesu alobaki: — Tika ete mitema na bino etungisama te! Bondima Nzambe mpe bondima Ngai.
2 In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.
Kati na ndako ya Tata na Ngai, bisika ezali mingi. Soki ezalaki bongo te, boni, nalingaki koyebisa bino ete nakeyi kuna mpo na kobongisela bino esika?
3 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.
Mpe, sima na Ngai kobongisa yango, nakozonga mpe nakozwa bino mpo ete bozala elongo na Ngai; mpe mpo ete bino mpe bozala na esika oyo Ngai nazali.
4 You know where I go, and you know the way.”
Boyebi nzela ya esika oyo nazali kokende.
5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
Toma alobaki na Yesu: — Te, Nkolo! Toyebi te esika oyo ozali kokende; bongo tokoyeba nzela na yango ndenge nini?
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Ngai, nazali nzela, solo mpe bomoi. Moto moko te akoki koya epai ya Tata, soki na nzela na Ngai te.
7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him and have seen him.”
Soki boyebaki Ngai, bolingaki mpe koyeba Tata na Ngai; mpe kobanda sik’oyo, boyebi Ye mpe bomoni Ye.
8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”
Filipo alobaki na Yesu: — Nkolo, lakisa biso Tata; tozali na posa ya eloko mosusu te.
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Ah Filipo! Kala nyonso oyo nazalaka elongo na bino, oyebaka na yo kaka Ngai te? Moto oyo amoni Ngai amoni Tata. Bongo ndenge nini olobi: « Lakisa biso Tata? »
10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.
Ondimi te ete nazali kati na Tata, mpe ete Tata azali kati na Ngai? Maloba oyo nayebisaka bino, nalobaka yango te na bokonzi na Ngai moko; ezali Tata oyo azali kati na Ngai nde azali kokokisa bongo misala na Ye.
11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
Bondima Ngai: nazali kati na Tata, mpe Tata azali kati na Ngai. Soki te, bondima ata mpo na misala oyo bomoni Ngai kosala.
12 Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.
Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: moto oyo andimi Ngai akosala misala oyo nazali kosala; akosala kutu misala oyo eleki minene, pamba te nazali kokende epai ya Tata.
13 Whatever you will ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Mpe nakosala nyonso oyo bokosenga na Kombo na Ngai, mpo ete Tata azwa lokumu kati na Mwana.
14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
Soki bosengi Ngai eloko na Kombo na Ngai, nakosala yango.
15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
Soki bolingaka Ngai, bokobatela mibeko na Ngai.
16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever: (aiōn g165)
Mpe Ngai, nakosenga epai ya Tata ete apesa bino Molobeli mosusu mpo ete azala elongo na bino tango nyonso, (aiōn g165)
17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive, for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
Molimo ya solo, Molimo oyo mokili ekoki koyamba te mpo ete ezali komona Ye te to eyebi Ye te. Kasi bino, boyebi Ye, pamba te azali elongo na bino mpe azali kati na bino.
18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.
Nakotika bino te lokola bana bitike; nakozongela bino.
19 Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.
Etikali kaka tango moke, mokili ekomona Ngai lisusu te; kasi bino, bokomona Ngai. Mpo ete nazali na bomoi, bino mpe bokozala na bomoi.
20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.
Tango mokolo yango ekokoma, bokososola ete nazali kati na Tata na ngai; bokososola lisusu ete bozali kati na Ngai, mpe Ngai nazali kati na bino.
21 One who has my commandments and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”
Moto oyo alingaka Ngai, ezali ye oyo abatelaka mibeko na Ngai mpe atiaka yango na misala. Tata na Ngai akolinga moto oyo alingaka Ngai; Ngai mpe nakolinga ye mpe nakomimonisa epai na ye.
22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
Yuda (Yuda Isikarioti te) atunaki Yesu: — Nkolo, mpo na nini komimonisa epai na biso, kasi epai ya mokili te?
23 Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
Yesu azongiselaki ye: — Moto oyo alingaka Ngai akobatela maloba na Ngai, mpe Tata na Ngai akolinga ye; bongo tokoya epai na ye mpe tokovanda elongo na ye.
24 He who doesn’t love me doesn’t keep my words. The word which you hear isn’t mine, but the Father’s who sent me.
Kasi moto oyo alingaka Ngai te, akobatela mpe maloba na Ngai te. Nzokande, Liloba oyo bozali koyoka ezali ya Ngai te, kasi ezali Liloba ya Tata oyo atindaki Ngai.
25 “I have said these things to you while still living with you.
Nayebisi bino makambo oyo nyonso, wana nazali nanu elongo na bino.
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.
Kasi Molobeli, Molimo Mosantu oyo Tata akotinda na Kombo na Ngai, akoteya bino makambo nyonso mpe akosunga bino mpo ete bobosana te nyonso oyo nayebisaki bino.
27 Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.
Nakeyi, kasi natikeli bino kimia; napesi bino kimia na Ngai. Nazali kopesa bino te ndenge mokili epesaka. Tika ete mitema na bino etungisama te mpe bobanga te!
28 You heard how I told you, ‘I am going away, and I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I said ‘I am going to my Father;’ for the Father is greater than I.
Boyoki Ngai koloba na bino ete nakeyi, mpe lisusu ete nakozongela bino. Soki bozalaki kolinga Ngai, bolingaki kosepela na kokende na Ngai epai ya Tata, pamba te Tata aleki Ngai na monene.
29 Now I have told you before it happens so that when it happens, you may believe.
Nayebisi bino makambo yango sik’oyo, liboso ete esalema, mpo ete bokoka kondima, na mokolo oyo ekosalema.
30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.
Kobanda sik’oyo, nakoloba na bino lisusu mingi te, pamba te mokonzi ya mokili oyo azali koya. Ezali te mpo ete azali na nguya moko te likolo na Ngai,
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let’s go from here.
kasi ezali mpo ete mokili eyeba ete nalingaka Tata, mpe ete nazali kosala kolanda ndenge atindaki Ngai. Botelema; tolongwa awa.
