< Johana 15 >

1 “Niĩ nĩ niĩ mũthabibũ ũrĩa wa ma nake Baba nĩwe mũrĩmĩri.
I myself am the vine true, and the Father of Mine the vinedresser is.
2 Rũhonge o ruothe rũrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa rũtaciaraga nĩarũtemaga akarweheria. Naruo rũhonge o ruothe rũrĩa rũciaraga nĩarũceehaga nĩguo rũciare maciaro maingĩ makĩria.
Every branch in Me myself not bearing fruit He takes away it, and every one fruit bearing He prunes it that fruit more it may bear.
3 Inyuĩ o na rĩu mũrĩ atheru nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro ũrĩa ndĩmũheete.
Already you yourselves clean are because of the word that I have spoken to you.
4 Ikaragai thĩinĩ wakwa na niĩ nĩndĩrĩikaraga thĩinĩ wanyu. Gũtirĩ rũhonge rũngĩciara maciaro rũrĩ rwiki; no nginya rũikare thĩinĩ wa mũthabibũ. O na inyuĩ mũtingĩciara maciaro mũtangĩikara thĩinĩ wakwa.
do abide in Me myself and I myself and I myself in you. Even as the branch not is able fruit to bear of itself only unless (it shall abide *N(k)O*) in the vine, so neither [are able] you only unless in Me myself (you shall abide. *N(k)O*)
5 “Nĩ niĩ mũthabibũ, na inyuĩ mũrĩ honge. Mũndũ angĩikara thĩinĩ wakwa na niĩ njikare thĩinĩ wake, nĩarĩciaraga maciaro maingĩ; tondũ mũtarĩ hamwe na niĩ mũtirĩ ũndũ mũngĩhota gwĩka.
I myself am the vine, you [are] the branches. The [one] abiding in Me myself and I myself and I myself in him, he bears fruit much; For apart from Me not you are able to do no [thing].
6 Mũndũ o wothe angĩaga gũikara thĩinĩ wakwa-rĩ, atariĩ o ta rũhonge rũrĩa rũteagwo rũkooma; honge icio nĩkũnganio ciũnganagio, igaikio mwaki-inĩ ikahĩa.
Only unless someone (shall abide *N(k)O*) in Me myself, he is thrown out like the branch and is dried up, and they gather them and into the fire cast, and it is burned.
7 Mũngĩikara thĩinĩ wakwa, nacio ciugo ciakwa ciikare thĩinĩ wanyu, hooyai o kĩrĩa gĩothe mũngĩenda, na nĩmũkũheo kĩo.
If you shall abide in Me myself and the declarations of Mine in you shall abide, whatever if you shall wish (do yourself ask *N(k)O*) and it will happen to you.
8 Ũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩgoocithia Baba nĩ atĩ, mũciarage maciaro maingĩ nĩguo mwĩonanie mũrĩ arutwo akwa.
In this is glorified the Father of Mine, that fruit much you may bear and (you may become *N(k)O*) to Me disciples.
9 “O ta ũrĩa Baba anyendete, ũguo noguo na niĩ ndĩmwendete. Rĩu-rĩ, ikaragai o wendo-inĩ wakwa.
even as has loved Me the Father, I myself also I myself also you loved; do abide in the love of Mine.
10 Mũngĩathĩkĩra maathani makwa-rĩ, nĩmũrĩikaraga wendo-inĩ wakwa o ta ũrĩa niĩ njathĩkĩire maathani ma Baba na ngaikara wendo-inĩ wake.
If the commandments of Mine you shall keep, you will abide in the love of Mine; even as I myself the commandments of the Father of Mine have kept, and I abide of Him in the love.
11 Ndamwĩra maũndũ macio nĩguo gĩkeno gĩakwa kĩgĩe thĩinĩ wanyu, nakĩo gĩkeno kĩanyu gĩkinyanĩre.
These things I have spoken to you that joy of Mine in you (may be *N(K)O*) and the joy of you may be full.
12 Rĩathani rĩakwa nĩ rĩĩrĩ: Endanagai inyuĩ ene, o ta ũrĩa niĩ ndĩmwendete.
This is commandment of Mine that you may love one another even as I loved you.
13 Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũrĩ wendo mũnene kũrĩ ũyũ, atĩ mũndũ no arute muoyo wake nĩ ũndũ wa arata ake.
Greater than this love no [one] has that one the life of him may lay down for the friends of him.
14 Inyuĩ mũrĩ arata akwa, mũngĩĩka ũrĩa ndĩmwathĩte.
You yourselves friends of Mine are if you shall do (what things *n(o)*) (as much as *K*) I myself command you.
15 Ndigũcooka kũmwĩta ndungata, tondũ ndungata ndĩmenyaga ũrĩa mũmĩathi areeka; no inyuĩ ndĩmwĩtĩte arata nĩgũkorwo maũndũ marĩa mothe ndĩĩrutĩte kuuma kũrĩ Baba nĩndĩmũmenyithĩtie.
no longer no longer I name you servants, for the servant not knows what is doing his master; You however I have called friends, because all things that I heard from the Father of Mine I have made known to you.
16 Ti inyuĩ mwathuurire, no nĩ niĩ ndamũthuurire, na ngĩmwamũra mũthiĩ mũgaciare maciaro, namo maciaro macio matũũre. Nake Baba nĩakamũhe kĩrĩa gĩothe mũkahooya thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
Not you yourselves Me chose, but I myself chose you and appointed you that you yourselves may go and fruit you may bear, and the fruit of you may remain; so that (which one *NK(o)*) maybe you may ask the Father in the name of Me, He may give you.
17 Rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo rĩathani rĩakwa: Endanagai.
These things I command you that you may love one another.
18 “Andũ a thĩ mangĩmũthũũra, menyai atĩ nĩ niĩ maambire gũthũũra.
If the world you hates, you know that Me myself before you it has hated.
19 Korwo mũrĩ a gũkũ thĩ, andũ a thĩ no mamwende ta mũrĩ ao. No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũtirĩ a gũkũ thĩ, no nĩndĩmũthuurĩte kuuma kũrĩ andũ a thĩ. Nĩkĩo andũ a thĩ mamũthũire.
If of the world you were, the world then would [as its] own was loving [you]; because however of the world not you are, but I myself chose you out of the world, on account of this hates you the world.
20 Ririkanai ũhoro ũrĩa ndamwĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Gũtirĩ ndungata nene gũkĩra mũmĩathi.’ Angĩkorwo niĩ nĩmanyariirire, o na inyuĩ nĩmakamũnyarira. Angĩkorwo nĩmathĩkĩire ũrutani wakwa o na wanyu nĩmakawathĩkĩra.
do remember the word that I myself said to you: Not is a servant greater than the master of him. If Me myself they persecuted also you they will persecute; if the word of Mine they kept also yours they will keep.
21 Nao makaamwĩka ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, nĩgũkorwo matiũĩ ũrĩa wandũmire.
But these things all they will do (against *no*) (you *N(k)O*) on account of the name of Me, because not they know the [One] having sent Me.
22 “Korwo ndiokire ngĩmahe ũhoro, matingĩamenyire nĩ ehia. No rĩu matirĩ na kĩĩgwatio nĩ ũndũ wa mehia mao.
only unless I come and I said to them, sin not they had; now however excuse not they have for the sin of them.
23 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũũthũũrĩte, nĩathũũire Baba o nake.
The [one] Me myself hating also the Father of Mine hates.
24 Korwo ndiĩkĩte gatagatĩ-inĩ kao maũndũ marĩa matarĩ mekwo nĩ mũndũ ũngĩ matingĩamenyire nĩ ehia. No rĩu nĩmonete ciama ici, no no maathũire na magathũũra Baba.
If the works not I had done among them that no other (did, *N(k)O*) sin not they had; now however both they have seen and have hated both Me myself and the Father of Mine;
25 No nĩgeetha kũhingio ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo Watho-inĩ wao atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩmathũũrire hatarĩ gĩtũmi.’
But [this is] that may be fulfilled the word in the law of them written that They hated Me without cause.’
26 “Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mũteithia agooka, ũrĩa ngaamũtũmĩra kuuma kũrĩ Baba, na nĩwe Roho wa ma ũrĩa uumaga kũrĩ Baba, we nĩakaheana ũira wakwa.
When (now *ko*) may come the Helper whom I myself will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who from the Father goes forth, He will bear witness concerning Me;
27 Na o na inyuĩ no nginya mũkaaruta ũira, tondũ mũtũũrĩte na niĩ kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria.
Also you yourselves now bear witness, because from [the] beginning with Me you are.
