Joni 15
1 Jisasi'a mago'ane anage hu'ne, Nagra tamage waini zafamofo nena'a mani'noe. Nenfa'a waini hozamofo nefa'e.
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2 Hakare azankuna'amo Nagripi me'neno raga reontesimofona, Agra akafri netreno, hakare azankuna'amo raga rentesiana, mago'ene traga huno eri fatgo hanigeno, aguheno raga rentegahie.
He cuts off every one of my branches that doesn't bear fruit. He prunes every branch that bears fruit so it can bear even more.
3 Tamagra ko agru hu'naze, na'ankure kema tamasmi'noa kemo tamazeri agru hu'ne.
You are already pruned and made clean through what I've told you.
4 Nagri nagu'afi emaninenke'na, Nagra tamagri tmagu'afi mani'neno. Zafa azankuna'amo agra avesitera raga'a reontegahie, waini zafare azankuna'amo ru okamare snuno'a raga reontegahie. Hagi Nagrite'ma ruokamare'sutma raga'a reontegahaze.
Remain in me, and I will remain in you. Just as a branch cannot produce fruit unless it remains part of the vine, so it is for you: you cannot bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5 Nagra waini zafa mani'nogeta, tamagra azankuna'a mani'naze. Iza'o Nagripi manige'na agripi mani'nomo'a, rama'a raga renente, Nagri'ma natresuta mago'zana osu'tfa hugahaze.
I'm the vine, you're the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit—for apart from me you can't do anything.
6 Mago vahe'mo'ma Nagri'ene tragoteno omanisimofona, azankuna eritru hu'nazageno osaparea kna hina, mate vu'za tevefi kregahaze.
Anyone who doesn't remain in me is like a branch that is thrown out and dries up. Such branches are gathered together, thrown into the fire and burned.
7 Tamagrama, Nagri'ene tragoteta mani'ne'nageno, naneke ni'amo tamagri tamagu'afi'ma me'nena, tamesinia zankuma nantahigesazana amne erigahaze.
If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, then you can ask for whatever you want, and it will be given you.
8 Tamagra rama'a raga renentenkeno, Nenfa'a ra agi erisige'za nege'za, Nagri namage nentaza disaipol vahere hu'za tamagrikura hugahaze.
My Father is glorified as you produce much fruit, proving you are my disciples.
9 Nenfa'ma, Nagri'ma navesi nante'neaza hu'na, Nagranena anahu kna hu'na tmesi nermantoanki, ana navesimofo agu'afi maniho.
As the Father loved me, so I have loved you. Remain in my love.
10 Tamagrama kasege ni'ama amage' antesuta, tamagra Nagri navesimofo agu'afi manigahaze, Nagrama, Nenfa kasegema amage ante'na, Agri avesizamofo agu'afi mani'noankna huta manigahaze.
If you do what I say, you will remain in my love, just as I do what my Father says and remain in his love.
11 Ama zanku'ma Nagra nermasmuana, Nagri muse zamo tamagri tamagu'afi me'nigeno, musezantmimo'a avitegahie.
I've explained this to you so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
12 Ama'i Nagri kasege, tamararunku ovesinte, avesinte hiho. Nagrama, tamagri'ma navesi tamante'noa kna hiho.
This is my command: love one another as I have loved you.
13 Mago'mo'ma rone'agu avesinteno, agra asimuma atreno frisimo'a, tusi'a ugota hu'nea avesiza huzmerigahie.
There is no greater love than to give your life for your friends.
14 Nagrama neramasmua kasegema amage antesutma Tamagra, Nagri rone manigahaze.
You're my friends if you do what I tell you.
15 Nagra ru'ene kazokzo eri'za vahe'ni'e hu'na tmagrikura osugahue, na'ankure kazokzo eri'za vahe'mo'a kva'amo'ma hiazana ontahi'ne. Hianagi Nagra rone'nimote hu'na tmagrikura nehue, na'ankure Nenfantegati maka'zama Nagrama antahuazana, tamagrira neramasmue.
I don't call you servants any longer, for servants are not taken into their master's confidence. I call you friends, for everything my Father told me I've explained to you.
16 Tamagra, Nagrira huhampri'onante'naze, hianagi Nagra, tamagrira huhampritamantena, tamazeri oti'noe, vuta nena raga'a ome rentesageno, ana ragamo me'nena, na'ankuro Nagri nagifi Nenfama antahigesageno'a, Agra amne tmigahie.
You didn't choose me, I chose you. I have given you the responsibility to go and produce lasting fruit. So the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
17 Nagra ama kasege neramasmue, tmararuna ovesinte avesinte hiho.
This is my command to you: love one another.
18 Jisasi'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Ama mopafi vahe'mo'za ha' rermantesaza zanku kva hiho, na'ankure ese agafare, Nagri ha' renante'naze.
If the world hates you, remember that it hated me before it hated you.
19 Ama'na mopafi vahe mani'naresina, ama mopafi vahe'mo'za tagri vahere hu'za zamesi rmantasine, ana hu'neanagi na'ankure tamagra ama mopafi vahera omani'naze. Hianagi Nagra ama mopafinti tamagrira tmavre'noe, ana agafare ama mopafi vahe'mo'za hara reneramantaze.
If you were part of this world, it would love you as its own. But you're not part of the world, and I chose you out of the world—that's why the world hates you.
20 Ko'ma tamasmi'noa kegu tamagesa antahiho, kazokzo eri'za ne'amo'a, kva vahe'a knara osu'ne. Nagri'ma nazanva ante'nesu'za, tamagri enena anahu kna hu'za tamazanva antegahaze, ke'ni'a amage antenare'sina, tamagri kea ana zanke hu'za antahizasine.
Remember what I told you: servants aren't more important than their master. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you too. If they did what I told them, they will do what you tell them too.
21 Hianagi Nagri nagimo tamagripi me'nenigeno'a, e'ina hu'zana hurmantegahaze, na'ankure hunantege'na e'nomofona ke'za antahi'za osu'nagu ana hurmategahaze.
But everything they do to you will be because of me, for they don't know the one who sent me.
22 Nagrama naneke e'na eme ozmasmuasina, zamagrira kumi'zmi omanesine. Hianagi menina kumi'zmia eri fraki kazamia omnegahie.
If I hadn't come and spoken to them, they wouldn't be guilty of sin—but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Higeno Nagri'ma ha'ma renantesimo'a, ana zanke huno Nenfana ha' renente.
Anyone who hates me hates my Father as well.
24 Mago'a vahe'mo'za e'orinaza kaguva eri'zama zamagri amu'nompi e'ori'noasinia, kumi'zmia omnesine. Hianagi menina kaguva eri'zani'a kazanagi, Nagri'ene Nenfanena ha' renerantaze.
If I had not given them such a demonstration through things that no one had ever done before, they wouldn't be guilty of sin, but despite seeing all this they hated both me and my Father.
25 Menima anazama nehazana, zamagri kasegefi kre'naza ke eri knare nehaze, Mago havizana Nagra osunoge'za, hara renenantaze. (Sam-Zga 69:4)
But this just fulfilled what Scripture says, ‘They hated me for no reason at all.’
26 Hagi tamazama hu'zama huntesugeno Nenfantegati tamagrite'ma esuno'a, Agra Tamage Avamukino Nagri nagenkea eriama hugahie.
But I will send you the Comforter from the Father. When he comes, he will give evidence about me. He is the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father.
27 Tamagranena ana zanke hutma Nagri nanekea huama hugahaze, na'ankure tamagra Nagrane mani'nage'na, eri'zana eri agafa hu'na eri'noe.
You will also give evidence about me because you were with me from the beginning.
