Johana 17
1 Jesũ aarĩkia kuuga maũndũ macio, agĩtiira maitho akĩrora na igũrũ, akĩhooya, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Baba hĩndĩ nĩ nginyu. Goocithia Mũrũguo, nĩguo nake Mũrũguo akũgoocithie.
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;
2 Nĩgũkorwo nĩũmũheete ũhoti wa gwatha andũ othe, nĩguo arĩa othe ũmũheete amahe muoyo wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
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)
3 Na rĩu ũyũ nĩguo muoyo wa tene na tene: Atĩ makũmenye, o Wee Ngai ũrĩa wa ma, na mamenye Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa ũtũmĩte. (aiōnios g166)
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)
4 Nĩngũgoocithĩtie gũkũ thĩ na ũndũ wa kũrĩĩkia wĩra ũrĩa waheire ndute.
I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.
5 Na rĩu Baba, ngoocithia ndĩ mbere yaku na riiri ũrĩa ndaarĩ naguo hamwe nawe o mbere thĩ ĩtaanagĩa.
And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence, with the glory that I had in Thy presence before the world existed.
6 “Nĩnguũrĩirie andũ arĩa waheire gũkũ thĩ rĩĩtwa rĩaku. Acio maarĩ aku; nawe ũkĩĩhe o, nao nĩmathĩkĩire kiugo gĩaku.
"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.
7 Na rĩu nĩmamenyete atĩ indo iria ciothe ũheete ciumĩte kũrĩ wee.
Now they know that whatever Thou hast given me is from Thee.
8 Nĩgũkorwo nĩndamaheire ciugo iria waheire, nao magĩciĩtĩkĩra. Nĩmamenyire hatarĩ nganja atĩ ndoimire kũrĩ wee, na magĩĩtĩkia atĩ wee nĩwe wandũmire.
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.
9 Acio nĩo ndĩrahoera. Ndirahoera andũ a gũkũ thĩ, no ndĩrahoera arĩa ũũheete, nĩgũkorwo nĩ aku.
"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,
10 Kĩrĩa gĩothe ndĩ nakĩo nĩ gĩaku, na kĩrĩa gĩothe ũrĩ nakĩo nĩ gĩakwa. Naguo ũgooci nĩũũkĩte kũrĩ niĩ nĩ ũndũ wao.
and everything that is mine is Thine, and everything that is Thine is mine; and I am crowned with glory in them.
11 Ndigũikara gũkũ thĩ rĩngĩ, no-o marĩ o gũkũ thĩ, na niĩ ndĩroka kũrĩ wee. Baba Mũtheru, magitĩre na ũhoti wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku, rĩĩtwa rĩrĩa waheire, nĩgeetha matuĩke ũmwe o ta ũrĩa ithuĩ tũrĩ ũmwe.
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.
12 Rĩrĩa ndĩraarĩ nao, nĩndĩramagitagĩra na ngamamenyerera na rĩĩtwa rĩu waheire. Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũũrĩte o tiga ũrĩa wathĩrĩirwo kwanangwo nĩguo Maandĩko mahingio.
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.
13 “Rĩu ndĩroka kũrĩ wee, no maũndũ maya ndĩroiga ndĩ o gũkũ thĩ, nĩguo maiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno gĩakwa kĩrĩ gĩkinyanĩru kũna thĩinĩ wao.
"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.
14 Nĩndĩmaheete kiugo gĩaku, nao andũ a gũkũ thĩ makamathũũra, nĩgũkorwo o ti a gũkũ thĩ rĩngĩ, o ta ũrĩa niĩ itarĩ wa gũkũ thĩ.
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.
15 Ihooya rĩakwa ti ũmarute gũkũ thĩ, no nĩ atĩ ũmagitagĩre kuuma kũrĩ ũrĩa mũũru.
I do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world, but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil one.
16 O ti a gũkũ thĩ, o ta ũrĩa o na niĩ itarĩ wakuo.
They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
17 Maamũre, ũmatherie na ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma; ũhoro waku nĩguo ũhoro wa ma.
Make them holy in the truth: Thy Message is truth.
18 O ta ũrĩa wandũmire gũkũ thĩ, na niĩ noguo ndamatũma kũrĩ andũ a gũkũ thĩ.
Just as Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;
19 Ndĩĩtheretie nĩ ũndũ wao, nĩguo o nao matherio kũna nĩ ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma.
and on their behalf I consecrate myself, in order that they may become perfectly consecrated in truth.
20 “Ningĩ to aya oiki ndĩrahoera. Ndĩrahoera o na arĩa angĩ makaanjĩtĩkia nĩ ũndũ wa ndũmĩrĩri ya aya,
"Nor is it for them alone that I make request. It is also for those who trust in me through their teaching;
21 nĩguo othe matuĩke ũmwe Baba, o ta ũrĩa we ũrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa na niĩ ndĩ thĩinĩ waku. O nao marogĩa thĩinĩ witũ nĩgeetha andũ a gũkũ thĩ metĩkie atĩ nĩwe ũndũmĩte.
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.
22 Nĩndĩmaheete riiri ũrĩa waheire, nĩguo matuĩke ũmwe o ta ũrĩa ithuĩ tũrĩ ũmwe,
And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them, that they may be one, just as we are one:
23 niĩ ndĩ thĩinĩ wao, nawe ũrĩ thĩinĩ wakwa. Marotuĩka ũmwe kũna, nĩgeetha andũ a gũkũ thĩ mamenye atĩ nĩwe wandũmire, na atĩ nĩũmendete o ta ũrĩa ũnyendete.
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.
24 “Baba, ngwenda arĩa ũũheete makorwo na niĩ harĩa ndĩ na mone riiri wakwa, riiri ũrĩa ũũheete nĩ ũndũ nĩwanyendete thĩ ĩtanombwo.
"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.
25 “Baba Mũthingu, o na gũtuĩka andũ a gũkũ thĩ matikũũĩ-rĩ, niĩ nĩngũũĩ, nao nĩ moĩ atĩ nĩwe ũndũmĩte.
And, righteous Father, though the world has failed to recognize Thee, I have known Thee, and these have perceived that Thou didst send me.
26 Nĩngũmenyithanĩtie kũrĩ o, na nĩngũkĩrĩrĩria gũkũmenyithania, nĩgeetha wendani ũrĩa ũnyendete naguo ũikarage thĩinĩ wao na nĩguo o na niĩ mwene ngoragwo thĩinĩ wao.”
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."
