UJohane 14
1 “Inhliziyo zenu kazingakhathazeki. Kholwani kuNkulunkulu; likholwe lakimi.
“Myoyo yenu kitapengi. Musyome muli Leza, musyome amulindime.
2 Emzini kaBaba kulezindlu ezinengi; aluba kwakungenjalo ngabe ngalitshela. Ngiya khona ukuyalilungisela indawo.
Mun'anda yaTaata mwaali makkalilo miingi. Nikutalibbobo tendalikunoomwaambila pe, lino ndiya kukumubambila busena.
3 Njalo nxa sengiyile ukulilungisela indawo ngizabuya ngizolithatha ukuthi libe lami, ukuze libe lami lapho engikhona.
Na ndiinka kuyomubambila busena ndiyoboola kuzomutola, kuti ooko nkwebede mukabeko anywebo.
4 Liyayazi indlela eya lapho engiyakhona.”
Muliizi inzila yakoko nkwenjobuya.”
5 UThomasi wathi kuye, “Nkosi, kasikwazi lapho oya khona, pho singayazi kanjani indlela na?”
Tomasi wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, tatukwizi pe nkoyobuya, tuliiziba biyei nzila?”
6 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Mina ngiyiyo indlela njalo ngiliqiniso lokuphila. Kakho oza kuBaba ngaphandle kwami.
Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Ndime nzila, bwini, abuumi; tawo pe uuza kuli Taata natiinda mulindime.
7 Aluba belingazi ngempela, belizamazi loBaba. Kusukela khathesi, selimazi njalo selimbonile.”
Nansyo mulindizi, nimumwizi Taata alakwe. Kuzwa sunu mwamuziba alimwi mwamubona.”
8 UFiliphu wathi, “Nkosi, sitshengise uBaba ngoba yikho lokho okuzasanelisa.”
Filipi wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, tutondeezya Taata, aawo kunoli kwazuzikizigwa kulindiswe.”
9 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Lokhe ungangazi na Filiphu, emva kwesikhathi eside kangaka ngilani? Lowo ongibonileyo usembonile uBaba. Ungatsho kanjani ukuthi, ‘Sitshengise uBaba’?
Jesu wakati kulinguwe, “Ndakali aandinywe kwachiindi chilamfu alimwi tamunaa kundiziba, Filipi? Ooyo wandibona wabona Taata. Kujana ulaamba biyeni kuti, “Tutondeezye Taata?'
10 Kawukholwa yini ukuthi ngikuBaba lokuthi uBaba ukimi? Amazwi engiwakhulumayo kini akusiwami. Kodwa nguBaba ophila kimi owenzayo umsebenzi wakhe.
Tondisyomi na kuti ndili muli Taata alimwi Taata uli muli ndime? Majwi ngindamwaambila nywe nsyaawambi kuzwa munguzu zyangu, pesi Taata upona mulindime ulikuchita mulimu wakwe.
11 Kholwani kimi nxa ngisithi ngikuBaba loBaba ukimi; loba ukukholwa ubufakazi bemimangaliso ngokwayo nje zwi.
Mundisyome kuti ndili muli Taata, akuti Taata uli mulindime, nikuba kuti usyome akaambo kamilimu lwayo.
12 Ngiqinisile ukuthi lowo okholwa kimi uzakwenza lokho ebengikwenza. Uzakwenza izinto ezinkulu kulalezi ngoba ngiya kuBaba.
Nchobeni, nchobeni, ndamwaambila, ooyo uusyoma mulindime uyoochita milimu njechita, alimwi uyoochita milimu mipati kwiinda eeyi nkaambo ndiya kuli Taata.
13 Njalo ngizakwenza noma yini eliyicelayo ngebizo lami ukuze iNdodana ilethe inkazimulo kuBaba.
Kufumbwa nchimuyookumbila muzina lyangu, ndiyomuchitila kuchitila kuti Taata akabe aabulemu mu Mwana.
14 Lingacela noma yini ngebizo lami, ngizakwenza.”
Na mwakumbila kufumbwa muzina lyangu, ndiyomuchitila.
15 “Nxa lingithanda, gcinani imilayo yami.
Na mwandiyanda muyoobamba milawu yangu,
16 Ngizacela kuBaba ukuthi alinike omunye umeli ukuthi alisize abe lani kuze kube laphakade, (aiōn g165)
alimwi ndiyookomba kuli Taata alimwi uyomupa uumbi mugwasyi kuchitila kuti akabe aandinywe kusikila kukabe kutamani - (aiōn g165)
17 uMoya weqiniso. Ilizwe ngeke limamukele ngoba kalimboni njalo kalimazi. Kodwa lina liyamazi ngoba uhlala lani njalo uzakuba lani.
Muuya wakasimpe. Ooyo nyika ngwitakabule kumutambula pe nkaambo timubwene pe na kumuziba. Pesi mulimwizi, alimwi ukkala andinywe alimwi uli mulindinywe.
18 Kangisoze ngilitshiye lizintandane, ngizabuya kini.
Nsikoyoomusiya amulike, ndiyooboola kulindinywe.
19 Kakusekhatshana ukuthi umhlaba ungabe usangibona njalo kodwa lina lizangibona. Ngenxa yokuthi ngiyaphila, lani lizaphila futhi.
Biyo kwachiindi chifwifwialimwi nyika tikozondibona lubo me, pesi muzondibona. Akaambo kakuti ndilapona, andinywe munoyopona.
20 Ngalolosuku lizakunanzelela ukuthi ngikuBaba, lina likimi, lami ngikini.
Mubuzuba oobo muyoziba kuti ndili muli Taata, akuti muli mulindime, akuti ndili mulindinywe.
21 Lowo olayo imilayo yami, ayigcine, nguye ongithandayo. Lowo ongithandayo uzathandwa nguBaba njalo lami ngizamthanda ngiziveze kuye.”
Ooyo uli amilawu yangu akwiibamba nguwe undiyanda, alimwi ooyo undiyanda uyooyandwa aTaata wangu, alimwi ndiyomuyanda akulitondeezya kulinguwe.”
22 Ngakho uJudasi (hatshi uJudasi Iskariyothi) wathi, “Kodwa Nkosi, kungani ujonge ukuziveza kithi, hatshi emhlabeni na?”
Judas (pe pe Sikkaliyoti) wakati kuli Jesu, “Mwaami, nkaambonzi noyolitondezya kulindiswe notayolitondeezyi kunyika?”
23 UJesu waphendula wathi, “Lowo ongithandayo uzalalela imfundiso yami. UBaba uzamthanda njalo sizakuza kuye sakhe umuzi wethu kanye laye.
Jesu wakasandaula alimwi wati kulinguwe, “Na kuli uumwi undiyanda, uyoobamba majwi aangu. Taata ulamuyanda alimwi tuyosika kulinguwe alimwi tuyoyaka muunzi anguwe.
24 Lowo ongangithandiyo kayikulalela imfundiso yami. Amazwi la eliwezwayo kayisiwo wami, ngakaBaba ongithumileyo.
Ooyo utandiyandi mebo takwe nabamba majwi aangu. Ijwi ndimumvwa talizwi kulindime pesi kuli Taata wakandituma.
25 Konke lokhu ngikukhulume ngiseselani.
Ndaamba zintu eezi kulindinywe kuchiindi nkechipona andinywe.
26 Kodwa uMeli, uMoya ONgcwele, uBaba azamthumela ebizweni lami, uzalifundisa zonke izinto njalo uzalikhumbuza konke engikukhulume kini.
Nekubaboobo, Mugwasyi - Muuya Uusalala ooyo Taata ngwayootuma kwiindila muzina lyangu - uyoomuyiisya zyoonse akumuyezya zyoonse nzindakamwaambila nywe.
27 Ukuthula ngikutshiya kini; ukuthula kwami ngilinika khona. Kangiliniki njengokunika komhlaba. Lingakhathazeki ezinhliziyweni zenu njalo lingesabi.
Ndamusiila luumuno; ndamupa luumuno lwangu. Tendamupa pe mbuli nyika mbwiipa. Myoyo yanu itapengi, alimwi mutapengi.
28 Langizwa ngisithi, ‘Ngiyahamba njalo ngizabuya kini.’ Kube belingithanda, ngabe liyathokoza ukuthi ngiya kuBaba, ngoba uBaba mkhulu kulami.
Mwakamvwa eezyo nzindakaamba kulindinywe; Ndiyobweenda alimwi nzooboola lubo kulindinywe. 'Na mwalikundiyanda, mwalikubotelwa nkaambo ndiya kuli Taata, nkaambo Taata mupati kwiinda ndime.
29 Sengilitshelile manje kungakenzakali ukuze kuthi nxa sekusenzakala likholwe.
Lino ndamwaambila kazitanaachitikana kuchitila kut, nizyazochitika, muzosyoma.
30 Kangisayikukhuluma okunengi kini ngoba inkosi yalo umhlaba isisiza. Kayilamandla phezu kwami,
Nsikoyoowambula twiingi andinywe, nkaambommweendelezi wanyika eeyi uyobuza. Takwe manguzu pe aatala andime,
31 kodwa umhlaba umele wazi ukuthi ngiyamthanda uBaba lokuthi ngenza khona kanye uBaba angilaye khona. Wozani manje; kasisukeni lapha.”
pesi mukuti inyika izibe kuti ndilamuyanda Taata, ndilachita mbubo mbuli Taata mbaakandilayilila mebo. Ngatukanyampuke alimwi tukeende kuzwa aano.”
