Yokaana 14
1 “Omutima gwammwe tegweraliikiriranga. Mukkiriza Katonda, era nange munzikirize.
“Do not let your heart be troubled. You believe in God. Believe in me also.
2 Mu nnyumba ya Kitange mulimu ebisenge bingi, era ŋŋenda okubateekerateekera ekifo. Singa tekiri bwe kityo nandibagambye.
In my Father’s house, there are many dwelling places. If there were not, I would have told you. For I go to prepare a place for you.
3 Bwe ndimala okubateekerateekera ekifo ndikomawo, ne mbatwala gye ndi, Nze gye ndi nammwe gye muba mubeera.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will return again, and then I will take you to myself, so that where I am, you also may be.
4 Era gye ŋŋenda ekkubo mulimanyi.”
And you know where I am going. And you know the way.”
5 Tomasi n’amugamba nti, “Mukama waffe, tetumanyi gy’olaga, kale tuyinza tutya okumanya ekkubo?”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?”
6 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Nze kkubo, n’amazima n’obulamu. Tewali n’omu ajja eri Kitange wabula ng’ayita mu Nze.
Jesus said to him: “I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
7 Singa muntegedde ne Kitange mwandimutegedde. Era okuva kaakano mumulabye era mumutegedde.”
If you had known me, certainly you would also have known my Father. And from now on, you shall know him, and you have seen him.”
8 Firipo n’amugamba nti, “Mukama waffe, tulage Kitaffe, kinaatumala.”
Philip said to him, “Lord, reveal the Father to us, and it is enough for us.”
9 Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Firipo, kasookedde mbeera nammwe ebbanga lino lyonna era tontegeeranga? Buli alaba Nze aba alabye Kitange! Kale lwaki ate oyogera nti, ‘Tulage Kitaffe?’
Jesus said to him: “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me? Philip, whoever sees me, also sees the Father. How can you say, ‘Reveal the Father to us?’
10 Tokkiriza nga Nze ndi mu Kitange era ne Kitange ali mu Nze? Ebigambo bye mbategeeza si byange ku bwange, wabula biva eri Kitange abeera mu Nze, era akola emirimu ng’ayita mu Nze.
Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I am speaking to you, I do not speak from myself. But the Father abiding in me, he does these works.
11 Kale munzikirize nti ndi mu Kitange era nga ne Kitange ali mu Nze. Oba si ekyo munzikirize olw’emirimu gyokka.
Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me?
12 “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti buli anzikiriza alikola emirimu egyo gye nkola, era alikola egisinga egyo, kubanga Nze ŋŋenda eri Kitange.
Or else, believe because of these same works. Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me shall also do the works that I do. And greater things than these shall he do, for I go to the Father.
13 Era buli kye munaasabanga mu linnya Lyange nnaakibakoleranga, Kitange alyoke agulumizibwe mu Mwana.
And whatever you shall ask the Father in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Bwe munaasabanga ekintu kyonna mu linnya lyange nnaakikolanga.”
If you shall ask anything of me in my name, that I will do.
15 “Kale obanga munjagala mugonderenga ebiragiro byange,
If you love me, keep my commandments.
16 nange ndisaba Kitange n’abawa Omubeezi omulala anaabeeranga nammwe emirembe n’emirembe, (aiōn g165)
And I will ask the Father, and he will give another Advocate to you, so that he may abide with you for eternity: (aiōn g165)
17 Mwoyo ow’Amazima ensi gwe teyinza kufuna, kubanga temulaba era temumanyi. Naye mmwe mumumanyi kubanga abeera nammwe, era anaabeeranga mu mmwe.
the Spirit of Truth, whom the world is not able to accept, because it neither perceives him nor knows him. But you shall know him. For he will remain with you, and he will be in you.
18 Siribaleka nga bamulekwa, ndikomawo gye muli.
I will not leave you orphans. I will return to you.
19 Mu bbanga ttono, ensi eneeba tekyandaba, naye mmwe nga mundaba. Kubanga Nze ndi mulamu, era nammwe muliba balamu.
Yet a little while and the world will not see me any longer. But you will see me. For I live, and you shall live.
20 Ku lunaku olwo mulitegeera nga Nze ndi mu Kitange, era nga muli mu Nze, nga nange ndi mu mmwe.
In that day, you shall know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
21 Buli anjagala anaagonderanga ebiragiro byange; era kubanga anjagala, ne Kitange anaamwagalanga. Era nange nnaamwagalanga, era nnaamulabikiranga.”
Whoever holds to my commandments and keeps them: it is he who loves me. And whoever loves me shall be loved by my Father. And I will love him, and I will manifest myself to him.”
22 Yuda, atali Isukalyoti n’amugamba nti, “Mukama waffe, lwaki oyagala okweraga eri ffe so si eri ensi?”
Judas, not the Iscariot, said to him: “Lord, how does it happen that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Omuntu yenna anjagala anaagonderanga ekigambo kyange, ne Kitange anaamwagalanga, era Nze ne Kitange tunajjanga ne tubeera mu ye era tunaatuulanga mu ye.
Jesus responded and said to him: “If anyone loves me, he shall keep my word. And my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and we will make our dwelling place with him.
24 Oyo atanjagala tagondera bigambo byange. Ate ebigambo bye njogera si byange ku bwange wabula bya Kitange eyantuma.
Whoever does not love me, does not keep not my words. And the word that you have heard is not of me, but it is of the Father who sent me.
25 Ebyo mbibabuulidde nga nkyali nammwe.
These things I have spoken to you, while abiding with you.
26 Naye Omubeezi, Mwoyo Mutukuvu, Kitange gw’alituma mu linnya lyange, bw’alijja alibayigiriza ebintu byonna era alibajjukiza byonna bye nabagamba.
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will suggest to you everything whatsoever that I have said to you.
27 Mbalekera emirembe, era mbawa emirembe gyange. Emirembe gye mbawa tegiringa egy’ensi. Noolwekyo temutyanga era temweraliikiriranga.
Peace I leave for you; my Peace I give to you. Not in the way that the world gives, do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, and let it not fear.
28 “Mujjukire kye n’abagamba nti ŋŋenda era ndikomawo gye muli. Singa ddala mubadde munjagala mwandisanyuse kubanga ŋŋenda eri Kitange, kubanga Kitange y’ansinga ekitiibwa.
You have heard that I said to you: I am going away, and I am returning to you. If you loved me, certainly you would be gladdened, because I am going to the Father. For the Father is greater than I.
29 Kaakano mbabuulidde ebintu bino nga tebinnabaawo, bwe birituukirira mulyoke munzikirize.
And now I have told you this, before it happens, so that, when it will happen, you may believe.
30 Sikyayogera bintu bingi nammwe, kubanga omufuzi omubi ow’ensi eno ajja. Naye Nze tanninaako buyinza.
I will not now speak at length with you. For the prince of this world is coming, but he does not have anything in me.
31 Kyokka ensi eryoke emanye nti njagala Kitange, nzija kukola Kitange ky’andagidde. “Musituke tuve wano.”
Yet this is so that the world may know that I love the Father, and that I am acting according to the commandment that the Father has given to me. Rise up, let us go from here.”
