Yohanes 10
1 “Nyateƒe gblɔm mele na mi be ame si megena ɖe alẽkpo la me to agboa nu o, ke boŋ wòɖatoa afi bubu gena ɖe eme la, fiafitɔ kple adzodala wònye.
Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Ongangeni ngesango esibayeni sezimvu, kodwa akhwele kwenye indawo, lowo ulisela lomphangi;
2 Ke ame si toa agboa nu gena ɖe eme la, eyae nye alẽawo ƒe kplɔla.
kodwa ongena ngesango ungumelusi wezimvu.
3 Agbonudzɔla ʋua agbo la nɛ, eye alẽawo ɖoa to eƒe gbe. Eyɔa eƒe alẽwo kple ŋkɔ eye wòkplɔa wo doa goe.
Umlindi wesango uyamvulela, lezimvu ziyalizwa ilizwi lakhe, njalo uyazibiza ezakhe izimvu ngamabizo, azikhokhelele phandle.
4 Ne ekplɔ eƒe alẽawo katã do goe la, edzea ŋgɔ na wo, eye wokplɔnɛ ɖo, elabena wonya eƒe gbe.
Nxa esezikhuphile ezakhe izimvu, uhamba phambi kwazo; lezimvu zimlandele, ngoba ziyalazi ilizwi lakhe.
5 Womadze ame bubu yome o, ke boŋ woasi le egbɔ, elabena womede dzesi eƒe gbe o.”
Kodwa owemzini kazisoze zimlandele, kodwa zizambalekela; ngoba kazilazi ilizwi labemzini.
6 Yesu do lo sia na wo, gake womese nya si gblɔm wòle na wo la gɔme o.
UJesu wakhuluma lumfanekiso kubo; kodwa bona kabaqedisisanga ukuthi ziyini izinto azitshoyo kubo.
7 Eya ta Yesu gagblɔ na wo be, “Mele egblɔm na mi le nyateƒe me be nyee nye agbo na alẽawo,
Ngakho uJesu waphinda wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Mina ngilisango lezimvu;
8 eye ame siwo katã va do ŋgɔ nam la, alẽawo meɖo to wo o, elabena fiafitɔwo kple adzodalawo wonye.
bonke abake bafika phambi kwami bangamasela labaphangi; kodwa izimvu kazibezwanga.
9 Nyee nye agbo la. Ame si to agbo la nu la, akpɔ ɖeɖe. Age ɖe eme, agado aɖaɖu gbe damawo.
Mina ngilisango; uba umuntu engena ngami, uzasindiswa, angene aphume, athole idlelo.
10 Fiafitɔ la vana be yeafi fi, awu ame, agblẽ nu. Ke nye la, meva be woakpɔ agbe si de blibo la.
Isela kalizi ngaphandle kokuzakweba lokubulala lokubhubhisa; mina ngizile ukuze babe lempilo, babe layo iphuphume.
11 “Nyee nye alẽkplɔla nyui la. Alẽkplɔla nyui la tsɔ eƒe agbe na ɖe alẽawo ta.
Mina ngingumelusi olungileyo. Umelusi olungileyo uzibekela phansi izimvu impilo yakhe.
12 Ke apadɔwɔla si woxɔ be wòakpɔ alẽawo dzi la, ne ekpɔ amegaxi wògbɔna la, esina, elabena alẽawo menye etɔ o. Ale amegaxi la dzea alẽawo dzi, eye wokakana gbẽe.
Kodwa oqhatshiweyo, engesuye umelusi, izimvu zingesizo ezakhe, ubona impisi isiza, atshiye izimvu, abaleke; kuthi impisi izibambe, izichithachithe izimvu.
13 Apadɔwɔla la sina, elabena ɖeko wodɔe be wòakpɔ alẽawo dzi, eye metsɔa ɖeke le eme na alẽawo o.
Oqhatshiweyo uyabaleka-ke, ngoba engoqhatshiweyo, njalo engazikhathaleli izimvu.
14 “Nyee nye alẽkplɔla nyui la. Menya nye alẽwo, eye nye alẽwo hã nyam,
Mina ngingumelusi olungileyo, ngiyazazi ezami, ngiyaziwa ngezami,
15 abe ale si Fofonye nyam ene la, nenema ke nye hã menya Fofonyee, eye metsɔ nye agbe na ɖe alẽawo ta.
njengalokhu uBaba engazi, lami ngiyamazi uBaba; ngizibekela phansi izimvu impilo yami.
16 Alẽha bubuwo le asinye siwo mele alẽkpo sia me o. Ele be makplɔ wo va gbɔnyee. Woawo hã, woase nye gbe be wo katã woanye alẽha ɖeka, anɔ Kplɔla ɖeka te.
Njalo ngilezinye izimvu, ezingesizo zalesisibaya; lazo kumele ngizilethe, njalo zizakuzwa ilizwi lami; njalo kube mhlambi munye, melusi munye.
17 “Fofonye lɔ̃m, elabena metsɔ nye agbe ɖo anyi be magaxɔe. Ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔe le asinye o.
Ngenxa yalokhu uBaba uyangithanda, ngoba mina ngibeka phansi impilo yami, ukuze ngibuye ngiyithathe.
18 Nye ŋutɔe lɔ̃ tsɔ nye agbe ɖo anyi. Ŋusẽ le asinye be matsɔ nye agbe aɖo anyi be magaxɔe. Sedede siae mexɔ tso Fofonye gbɔ.”
Kakho ongemuka yona, kodwa mina ngiyibeka phansi ngokwami. Ngilamandla okuyibeka phansi, njalo ngilamandla okubuya ngiyithathe. Lumlayo ngiwemukele kuBaba.
19 Yesu ƒe nya siawo gahe mama de Yudatɔwo dome.
Ngakho kwaba khona futhi ukwehlukana phakathi kwamaJuda ngenxa yalamazwi.
20 Wo dometɔ geɖewo gblɔ be, “Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le eme, eye wòle tsu kum. Migaɖo toe o.”
Labanengi bawo bathi: Uledimoni futhi uyahlanya; limlalelelani?
21 Ke ame bubuwo gblɔ be, “Ame sia ƒe nyawo medze abe ame si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le la tɔ ene o. Ɖe gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ ate ŋu aʋu ŋku na ŋkuagbãtɔa?”
Amanye athi: Lamazwi kawasiwo wongenwe lidimoni; kambe idimoni lingavula amehlo eziphofu yini?
22 Ŋutikɔkɔŋkekenyui la ɖo le Yerusalem. Enye vuvɔŋɔli,
Kwakukhona umkhosi wokuvuselela eJerusalema, kwakusebusika;
23 eye Yesu nɔ gbedoxɔ la me nɔ zɔzɔm le teƒe si woyɔna be Solomo ƒe Akpata la me.
uJesu wasehambahamba ethempelini ekhulusini likaSolomoni.
24 Yudatɔwo ƒo xlãe, eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Ɣe ka yie nàna míatsi dzimaɖi se ɖo? Nenye wòe nye Kristo la, gblɔe na mi.”
AmaJuda asemhanqa, athi kuye: Koze kube nini usilibazisa? Uba wena unguKristu, sitshele ngokucacileyo.
25 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Megblɔ ame si menye la na mi xoxo, gake miexɔe se o. Nukunu siwo wɔm mele le Fofonye ƒe ŋkɔ me la hã le ɖase ɖim le ŋunye,
UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Ngalitshela, kodwa kalikholwanga; imisebenzi mina engiyenza ebizweni likaBaba, yiyo engifakazelayo;
26 gake miexɔe se o, elabena menye nye alẽwo mienye o.
kodwa lina kalikholwa; ngoba kalisibo abezimvu zami, njengokutsho kwami kini.
27 Nye alẽwo sea nye gbe; menya wo, eye wodzea yonyeme.
Izimvu zami ziyalizwa ilizwi lami, lami ngiyazazi, futhi ziyangilandela;
29 elabena Fofonye, ame si tsɔ wo nam la nye gã wu ame sia ame; ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔ wo le Fofonye si sesẽtɔe o.
UBaba ozinike mina, mkhulu kulabo bonke; kungekho njalo ongazihluthuna esandleni sikaBaba.
30 Nye kple Fofonye la, ame ɖekae míenye.”
Mina loBaba simunye.
31 Yudatɔwo gafɔ kpewo be yewoaƒui,
Ngakho amaJuda aphinda athatha amatshe ukuze amkhande ngawo.
32 gake Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Fofo la na mewɔ nukunuwo na mi. Nu siawo dometɔ ka ta miedi be yewoaƒu kpem ɖo?”
UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Ngilitshengise imisebenzi eminengi emihle evela kuBaba; yiwuphi umsebenzi kuyo elingikhandela wona ngamatshe?
33 Yudatɔwo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Menye nukunu siwo nèwɔ la tae míedi be míaƒu kpe wò ɖo o, ke boŋ busunya siwo gblɔm nèle la tae. Nu ka ta wò amegbetɔ nèle ɖokuiwò yɔm be Mawu ɖo?”
AmaJuda amphendula athi: Kasikukhandi ngamatshe ngenxa yomsebenzi omuhle, kodwa ngenxa yenhlamba, langokuthi wena ungumuntu uzenza uNkulunkulu.
34 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ɖe womeŋlɔe ɖe miaƒe se la me be, ‘Megblɔe be mawuwo mienye’ oa?
UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Kakulotshiwe yini emlayweni wenu ukuthi: Mina ngathi: Lingonkulunkulu?
35 Ne woyɔ mi be ‘mawuwo’ la, ame kawoe Mawu ƒe nya la va na, eye womate ŋu ada le mawunya la dzi o,
Uba wababiza bona ngokuthi ngonkulunkulu, eleza kubo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu, njalo umbhalo ungephulwe,
36 eye aleke woabu tso ame si ŋu Fofo la kɔ heɖoe ɖe xexea me ŋu? Ekema nu ka ta mietsɔ nya ɖe ŋunye be megblɔ busunya, elabena megblɔ be, ‘Menye Mawu ƒe Vi’?
lowo uBaba amehlukanisileyo wamthuma emhlabeni, kanti lina lithi: Uyahlambaza, ngoba ngithe: NgiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu?
37 Ne menye Fofonye gbɔ nukunu siwo wɔm mele la tso o la, ekema migaxɔ dzinye se o.
Uba ngingenzi imisebenzi kaBaba, kalingakholwa kimi.
38 Ne mele nukunuwo wɔm, eye miexɔ dzinye se o hã la, mixɔ nukunu siwo mewɔ la dzi se, eye miadze sii be Fofo la le menye, eye nye hã mele Fofo la me.”
Kodwa uba ngiyenza, lanxa lingakholwa kimi, kholwani imisebenzi; ukuze lazi likholwe ukuthi uBaba ukimi, lami ngikuye.
39 Ameawo gadi be yewoalée, gake edo go dzo le wo gbɔ.
Ngakho adinga futhi ukumbamba; kodwa waphunyuka esandleni sabo.
40 Yesu gatrɔ ɖatso Yɔdan tɔsisi la yi egodo, eye wòyi ɖanɔ afi si Yohanes nɔ mawutsi dem ta na amewo le tsã la.
Wasebuya wasuka waya ngaphetsheya kweJordani kundawo lapho uJohane ayebhabhathiza khona kuqala; wasehlala khona.
41 Enɔ afi sia, eye ame geɖewo va egbɔ. Ameawo gblɔ be, “Togbɔ be Yohanes mewɔ nukunu aɖeke o hã la, nya siwo katã Yohanes gblɔ tso ŋutsu sia ŋu la nye nyateƒe.”
Labanengi beza kuye, bathi: UJohane kenzanga sibonakaliso; kodwa konke uJohane akutsho ngalo, kwakuliqiniso.
42 Ame geɖewo xɔ Yesu dzi se le teƒe sia.
Abanengi basebekholwa kuye lapho.
