Yoane 17
1 Sima na Yesu koloba bongo, atombolaki miso na Ye na Likolo mpe abondelaki: Tata, tango ekoki; monisa nkembo ya Mwana na Yo mpo ete Mwana mpe amonisa nkembo na Yo;
Jesus spoke these words, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said: Father, the hour has come: glorify thy Son, that thy Son may also glorify thee;
2 pamba te opesaki Ye bokonzi likolo ya bato nyonso, mpo ete apesa bomoi ya seko epai ya bato nyonso oyo opesaki Ye. (aiōnios g166)
as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all that thou hast given him. (aiōnios g166)
3 Nzokande, bomoi ya seko ezali: koyeba Yo oyo ozali Nzambe moko kaka ya solo, mpe koyeba Yesu-Klisto oyo otindaki. (aiōnios g166)
And this is life eternal, to know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou has sent. (aiōnios g166)
4 Namonisi nkembo na Yo awa na mokili mpe nasilisi mosala oyo opesaki Ngai.
I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5 Sik’oyo Tata, pesa Ngai lisusu nkembo oyo nazalaki na yango kuna epai Yo ozali liboso ete okela mokili.
And now, Father, glorify me with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
6 Namonisi nkembo na Yo epai ya bato oyo opesaki Ngai sima na Yo kolongola bango na misala ya mokili. Bazalaki bato na Yo, kasi opesaki Ngai bango; mpe batosi Liloba na Yo.
I have made known thy name to the men that thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them, to me, and they have kept thy word.
7 Bayebi malamu sik’oyo ete nyonso oyo opesaki Ngai ewutaki solo epai na Yo;
Now they know that all things that thou hast given me are from thee;
8 pamba te nateyaki bango maloba oyo opesaki Ngai, mpe bayambaki yango na esengo; bayebi ete nawutaki solo epai na Yo, mpe bandimi ete Yo nde otindaki Ngai.
for the words which thou gavest me I have given them; and they have received them, and they know surely that I came forth from thee, and they believe that thou didst send me.
9 Nazali kobondela nde mpo na bango; nazali kobondela te mpo na bato ya mokili, kasi mpo na bato oyo opesaki Ngai, mpo ete bazali bato na Yo.
I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me; for they are thine.
10 Bato na Yo nyonso bazali bato na Ngai, mpe bato na Ngai nyonso bazali bato na Yo; mpe nkembo na Ngai ezali komonisama kati na bango.
And all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them.
11 Kala mingi te, nakozala lisusu te kati na mokili, pamba te nazali koya epai na Yo; kasi bango, bakokoba kozala kati na mokili. Tata na Ngai, Yo oyo ozali Mosantu, batela bango na nguya ya Kombo na Yo, Kombo oyo opesaki Ngai, mpo ete bazala moko ndenge Yo na Ngai tozali moko.
And I am no longer in the world; but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep in thy name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are one.
12 Wana nazalaki elongo na bango, nabatelaki bango na nguya ya Kombo na Yo, Kombo oyo opesaki Ngai; nabatelaki bango malamu, mpe moko te kati na bango abungaki, longola kaka ye oyo asengeli na libebi mpo ete Makomi ekokisama.
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me, I have kept; and none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled.
13 Sik’oyo, nazali koya epai na Yo; kasi nazali koloba makambo oyo tango nazali nanu kati na mokili mpo ete esengo na Ngai, oyo ezali ya kokoka, ezala kati na bango.
And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14 Nateyaki bango maloba oyo oyebisaki Ngai, mpe mokili eyinaki bango mpo ete bazali bato ya mokili te, ndenge Ngai mpe nazali ya mokili te.
I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
15 Nazali kosenga na Yo te ete olongola bango kati na mokili, kasi nde obatela bango liboso ya Satana.
I do not pray thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the Evil One.
16 Bazali bato ya mokili te, ndenge Ngai mpe nazali ya mokili te.
They are not of the world, as I am not of the world.
17 Bulisa bango na nzela ya bosolo na Yo, Liloba na Yo ya solo.
Sanctify them through thy truth; thy word is truth.
18 Ndenge otindaki Ngai kati na mokili, ndenge wana mpe Ngai nazali kotinda bango.
As thou hast sent me into the world, so I send them into the world;
19 Namibonzaki mobimba epai na Yo mpo na bango, mpo ete bango mpe babulisama na nzela ya bosolo.
and for them I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified through the truth.
20 Nazali kobondela mpo na bango kaka te, kasi mpe mpo na bato oyo bakondima Ngai na nzela ya mateya na bango,
I pray, not for these only, but for those also who shall believe on me through their word;
21 mpo ete bango nyonso bazala moko ndenge Yo Tata ozali kati na Ngai, mpe Ngai kati na Yo; ete bango mpe bazala moko kati na biso, mpe ete mokili endima ete ezali Yo nde otindaki Ngai.
that they all may be one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 Nasaleli bango ngolu ya kobika nkembo na Yo ndenge kaka osalaki mpo na Ngai, mpo ete bazala moko ndenge biso mpe tozali moko:
And the glory which thou gavest me, I have given them, that they may be one, as we are one;
23 Ngai kati na bango, mpe Yo kati na Ngai. Ezali kaka na nzela wana nde bakokoka kozala penza moko, mpo ete mokili eyeba penza ete Yo nde otindaki Ngai, mpe ete olingaka bango ndenge olingaka Ngai.
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24 Tata, nalingi ete bato oyo opesaki Ngai bazala elongo na Ngai kuna epai nazali kokende, mpo ete bamona nkembo na Ngai, nkembo oyo opesaki Ngai, pamba te olingaki Ngai liboso ete okela mokili.
Father, I wish that they also, whom thou hast given me, may be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me; for thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.
25 Tata, Yo oyo ozali sembo, mokili eyebi Yo te; kasi Ngai nayebi Yo, mpe bato oyo bayebi ete Yo nde otindaki Ngai.
Righteous Father, though the world has not known thee, yet I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
26 Nalakisi bango nguya ya Kombo na Yo, mpe nakokoba kolakisa bango yango, mpo ete bolingo oyo ozali na yango mpo na Ngai ezala kati na bango, mpe Ngai nazala kati na bango.
And I have made known to them thy name, and will continue to make it known, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
