< Yohanna 14 >
1 “Kada zuciyarku ta ɓaci. Ku gaskata da Allah, ku kuma gaskata da ni.
[Jesus continued by saying to us], “Stop being anxious/worried. Keep on trusting in God (OR, You are trusting in God); also keep trusting in me.
2 A cikin gidan Ubana akwai wurin zama da yawa; da a ce ba haka ba ne, da na gaya muku. Za ni can don in shirya muku wuri.
Where my Father is [in heaven] there is plenty of room! If that were not true, I would have told you. I am about to go [there] to prepare a place for you.
3 In kuwa na tafi na shirya muku wuri, sai in dawo in ɗauke ku ku kasance tare da ni don ku kasance inda nake.
And because I will go [there] and prepare a place for you, I will return and take you there to be with me. I will do that so that you may also be where I am.
4 Ai, kun san hanyar zuwa inda za ni.”
You know the road to the place where I am going.”
5 Sai Toma ya ce masa, “Ubangiji, ba mu san inda za ka ba, to, ta yaya za mu san hanyar?”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. [So] how can we know the road?”
6 Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Ni ne hanya, ni ne gaskiya, ni ne kuma rai. Ba mai zuwa wurin Uba sai dai ta wurina.
Jesus said to him, “I am the road [MET] [to where my Father is]. I am the [one who reveals] [MET] the truth [about God] and the [one who gives eternal] life [to people]. I am the only one who can [enable people] to come to [my] Father. There is no other way.
7 Da kun san ni, da za ku san Ubana ma. Daga yanzu, kun san shi kun kuma gan shi.”
If you [really] knew who I was, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and [it is as though] you have seen him.”
8 Filibus ya ce, “Ubangiji, ka nuna mana Uban, wannan kuwa zai biya bukatarmu.”
Philip said to him, “Lord, show us your Father and that will be enough for us!”
9 Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Ba san ni ba, Filibus, duk da daɗewan nan da na yi tare da ku? Duk wanda ya gan ni, ai, ya ga Uban. Yaya za ka ce, ‘Ka nuna mana Uban’?
Jesus said to him, “Philip, I have been with you for a long time. So (surely you should know who I [really am]!/why have you not come to know who I [really am]?) [RHQ] Those who have seen me, [it is as though] they have seen [my] Father. So (why do you say ‘Show us [your] Father’?/you should not say ‘Show us [your] Father’!) [RHQ]
10 Ba ka gaskata cewa ina cikin Uba, Uba kuma yana cikina ba? Kalmomin da nake gaya muku ba na kaina ba ne. Ai, Uban da yake raye a cikina ne yake aikinsa.
Do you not [RHQ] believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father, and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me? The messages that I tell you do not come from me. They come from my Father, who has a close relationship with me. He is enabling me to [teach these things, and] to perform the miracles that he [wants me to perform].
11 Ku gaskata ni sa’ad da na ce ina cikin Uba, Uba kuma yana cikina. Ko kuwa ku gaskata ni saboda ayyukan banmamakin su kansu.
Believe that I have a close relationship with [my] Father and that [my] Father has a close relationship with me. If you do not believe that just because of what I say, believe it because of the miracles themselves [that I have done].
12 Gaskiya nake gaya muku, duk wanda yake da bangaskiya gare ni, zai yi abubuwan da ni nake yi. Zai ma yi abubuwa masu girma fiye da waɗannan, don zan tafi wurin Uba.
Listen to this carefully: [You] who trust in me will do the [kinds of] miracles [that I have done]. [Because of what I will do for you] (OR, [Because I will send God’s Spirit to you]) after I go to my Father, you will be able to do [miracles] that will be greater than [the ones I have done].
13 Kuma zan yi duk abin da kuka roƙa cikin sunana, don Ɗan ya kawo ɗaukaka ga Uban.
And whatever you, using my authority, ask me to do, I will do it, in order that I can show [you] how great [my] Father is.
14 Za ku iya roƙe ni kome a cikin sunana, zan kuwa yi.
Anything that you ask [my Father to do, anything that you ask] with my [authority] [MTY], I will do.”
15 “In kuna ƙaunata za ku yi biyayya da umarnina.
“If you love me, you will do what I have commanded you.
16 Zan kuwa roƙi Uba, zai kuwa ba ku wani Mai Taimakon da zai kasance tare da ku har abada, (aiōn )
Then I myself will request [my] Father, and he will send you someone else who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. (aiōn )
17 Ruhun gaskiya. Duniya ba ta iya karɓarsa, don ba ta ganinsa ba ta kuma san shi ba. Amma kun san shi, saboda yana zama tare da ku zai kuma kasance a cikinku.
[I am talking about] the Spirit, who [will teach you God’s] truth. He will be with you forever. Those who are opposed to God [MTY] cannot receive him, because they cannot understand what he [does], and they cannot know who he is. But you know who he is, because he is with you and he will be inside you.
18 Ba zan bar ku marayu ba; zan zo wurinku.
[When I leave you], I will not let you be alone/helpless [MET]. [When I send the Spirit, it will be like] I am coming back to you (OR, [When I rise from the dead], I will come back to you.)
19 Ba da daɗewa ba, duniya ba za tă ƙara ganina ba, amma za ku gan ni. Don ina raye, ku ma za ku rayu.
Soon those who do not belong to God [MTY] will not see me any more. But [when the Spirit comes to you, it will be as though] you will be seeing me again (OR, But [after I become alive again], you will see me again.) Because I will be alive again, you also will have [eternal] life.
20 A ranan nan za ku sani ina cikin Uba, ku kuma kuna cikina, ni kuma ina cikinku.
At that time you will know that I have a close relationship with my Father, and you will have a close relationship with me, and I will have a close relationship with you.
21 Duk wanda yake da umarnaina yana kuma yin biyayya da su, shi ne wanda yake ƙaunata. Wanda yake ƙaunata kuwa Ubana zai ƙaunace shi, ni ma zan ƙaunace shi, in kuma bayyana kaina gare shi.”
Those who have accepted my commands and obey them are the people who love me. My Father will love those who love me. I also will love them, and I will fully reveal to them [what I am like].”
22 Sai Yahuda (ba Yahuda Iskariyot ba) ya ce, “Ubangiji, me ya sa za ka bayyana kanka gare mu amma ba ga duniya ba?”
Then Judas spoke to him. He was not Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), [but instead a disciple whose other name was Thaddeus]. He said, “Lord, what has happened so that you can fully reveal to us what you are like, and not reveal that to those who do not belong to God [MTY]?”
23 Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Duk mai ƙaunata, zai yi biyayya da koyarwata. Ubana zai ƙaunace shi, za mu kuwa zo wurinsa mu zauna tare da shi.
Jesus replied to him, “Those who love me will obey what I have told them. My Father will [also] love them. It is those people whom my Father and I will [be able to] come to and (live with/have a personal relationship with).
24 Wanda ba ya ƙaunata ba zai yi biyayya da koyarwata ba. Waɗannan kalmomin da kuke ji ba nawa ba ne; na Uba ne da ya aiko ni.
But those who do not love me will not obey what I have told them. [So I cannot reveal to them what I am really like]. These words that I am telling you have not come just from me. They came from [my] Father, the one who sent me.
25 “Duk wannan na faɗa ne yayinda ina tare da ku.
I have told you all these things while I am still with you.
26 Amma Mai Taimako, Ruhu Mai Tsarki, wanda Uba zai aiko cikin sunana, zai koya muku kome, zai kuma tuna muku duk abin da na faɗa muku.
But [my] Father will send the Holy Spirit. He is the one who will (encourage/be like a legal counsel for) you. He will come with my authority [MTY]. He will teach you all of [God’s truth that you need to know]. He will also cause you to remember all the things that I have told you.
27 Salama na bari tare da ku; salamata nake ba ku. Ba kamar yadda duniya take bayarwa nake ba ku ba. Kada zuciyarku ta ɓaci kada kuma ku ji tsoro.
As I leave you, I am causing you to have [inner] peace. This [inner] peace comes from me. I am not causing you to have something that those who do not belong to God [MTY] can give you. [So] stop being anxious/worried, and do not be afraid.
28 “Kun dai ji na ce, ‘Zan tafi in kuma sāke dawo wurinku.’ In har kuna ƙaunata, za ku yi farin ciki cewa za ni wurin Uba, domin kuwa Uban ya fi ni.
You heard me say to you, ‘I am going away, but [later] I will come back to you.’ If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going back to [my] Father, because [my] Father is greater than I am, [and there he will honor me and will send the Spirit to you].
29 Na faɗa muku tun kafin yă faru, domin in ya faru, ku gaskata.
I have told you [these things now] before they happen, so that when they happen you will believe [that what I said is true].
30 Ba zan ƙara yi muku magana ba, gama mai mulkin duniyan nan yana zuwa. Ba shi da iko a kaina,
I will not [be able to] talk to you much longer, because what happens to me will be as though [Satan], the ruler of this world, is coming [to attack me]. But he has no [control over what happens to] me.
31 amma dole duniya ta koya cewa ina ƙaunar Uba, ina kuma yin yadda Ubana ya umarce ni. “Ku zo, mu bar nan.
Instead, the people who do not belong to God [MTY] must learn [from what happens to me] that I love [my] Father, and I am doing the things that he has commanded me to do. Now, let’s get up and leave here.”
