< UJohane 10 >

1 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Ongangeni ngesango esibayeni sezimvu, kodwa akhwele kwenye indawo, lowo ulisela lomphangi;
“Nyateƒe gblɔm mele na mi be ame si megena ɖe alẽkpo la me to agboa nu o, ke boŋ wòɖatoa afi bubu gena ɖe eme la, fiafitɔ kple adzodala wònye.
2 kodwa ongena ngesango ungumelusi wezimvu.
Ke ame si toa agboa nu gena ɖe eme la, eyae nye alẽawo ƒe kplɔla.
3 Umlindi wesango uyamvulela, lezimvu ziyalizwa ilizwi lakhe, njalo uyazibiza ezakhe izimvu ngamabizo, azikhokhelele phandle.
Agbonudzɔla ʋua agbo la nɛ, eye alẽawo ɖoa to eƒe gbe. Eyɔa eƒe alẽwo kple ŋkɔ eye wòkplɔa wo doa goe.
4 Nxa esezikhuphile ezakhe izimvu, uhamba phambi kwazo; lezimvu zimlandele, ngoba ziyalazi ilizwi lakhe.
Ne ekplɔ eƒe alẽawo katã do goe la, edzea ŋgɔ na wo, eye wokplɔnɛ ɖo, elabena wonya eƒe gbe.
5 Kodwa owemzini kazisoze zimlandele, kodwa zizambalekela; ngoba kazilazi ilizwi labemzini.
Womadze ame bubu yome o, ke boŋ woasi le egbɔ, elabena womede dzesi eƒe gbe o.”
6 UJesu wakhuluma lumfanekiso kubo; kodwa bona kabaqedisisanga ukuthi ziyini izinto azitshoyo kubo.
Yesu do lo sia na wo, gake womese nya si gblɔm wòle na wo la gɔme o.
7 Ngakho uJesu waphinda wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Mina ngilisango lezimvu;
Eya ta Yesu gagblɔ na wo be, “Mele egblɔm na mi le nyateƒe me be nyee nye agbo na alẽawo,
8 bonke abake bafika phambi kwami bangamasela labaphangi; kodwa izimvu kazibezwanga.
eye ame siwo katã va do ŋgɔ nam la, alẽawo meɖo to wo o, elabena fiafitɔwo kple adzodalawo wonye.
9 Mina ngilisango; uba umuntu engena ngami, uzasindiswa, angene aphume, athole idlelo.
Nyee nye agbo la. Ame si to agbo la nu la, akpɔ ɖeɖe. Age ɖe eme, agado aɖaɖu gbe damawo.
10 Isela kalizi ngaphandle kokuzakweba lokubulala lokubhubhisa; mina ngizile ukuze babe lempilo, babe layo iphuphume.
Fiafitɔ la vana be yeafi fi, awu ame, agblẽ nu. Ke nye la, meva be woakpɔ agbe si de blibo la.
11 Mina ngingumelusi olungileyo. Umelusi olungileyo uzibekela phansi izimvu impilo yakhe.
“Nyee nye alẽkplɔla nyui la. Alẽkplɔla nyui la tsɔ eƒe agbe na ɖe alẽawo ta.
12 Kodwa oqhatshiweyo, engesuye umelusi, izimvu zingesizo ezakhe, ubona impisi isiza, atshiye izimvu, abaleke; kuthi impisi izibambe, izichithachithe izimvu.
Ke apadɔwɔla si woxɔ be wòakpɔ alẽawo dzi la, ne ekpɔ amegaxi wògbɔna la, esina, elabena alẽawo menye etɔ o. Ale amegaxi la dzea alẽawo dzi, eye wokakana gbẽe.
13 Oqhatshiweyo uyabaleka-ke, ngoba engoqhatshiweyo, njalo engazikhathaleli izimvu.
Apadɔwɔla la sina, elabena ɖeko wodɔe be wòakpɔ alẽawo dzi, eye metsɔa ɖeke le eme na alẽawo o.
14 Mina ngingumelusi olungileyo, ngiyazazi ezami, ngiyaziwa ngezami,
“Nyee nye alẽkplɔla nyui la. Menya nye alẽwo, eye nye alẽwo hã nyam,
15 njengalokhu uBaba engazi, lami ngiyamazi uBaba; ngizibekela phansi izimvu impilo yami.
abe ale si Fofonye nyam ene la, nenema ke nye hã menya Fofonyee, eye metsɔ nye agbe na ɖe alẽawo ta.
16 Njalo ngilezinye izimvu, ezingesizo zalesisibaya; lazo kumele ngizilethe, njalo zizakuzwa ilizwi lami; njalo kube mhlambi munye, melusi munye.
Alẽha bubuwo le asinye siwo mele alẽkpo sia me o. Ele be makplɔ wo va gbɔnyee. Woawo hã, woase nye gbe be wo katã woanye alẽha ɖeka, anɔ Kplɔla ɖeka te.
17 Ngenxa yalokhu uBaba uyangithanda, ngoba mina ngibeka phansi impilo yami, ukuze ngibuye ngiyithathe.
“Fofonye lɔ̃m, elabena metsɔ nye agbe ɖo anyi be magaxɔe. Ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔe le asinye o.
18 Kakho ongemuka yona, kodwa mina ngiyibeka phansi ngokwami. Ngilamandla okuyibeka phansi, njalo ngilamandla okubuya ngiyithathe. Lumlayo ngiwemukele kuBaba.
Nye ŋutɔe lɔ̃ tsɔ nye agbe ɖo anyi. Ŋusẽ le asinye be matsɔ nye agbe aɖo anyi be magaxɔe. Sedede siae mexɔ tso Fofonye gbɔ.”
19 Ngakho kwaba khona futhi ukwehlukana phakathi kwamaJuda ngenxa yalamazwi.
Yesu ƒe nya siawo gahe mama de Yudatɔwo dome.
20 Labanengi bawo bathi: Uledimoni futhi uyahlanya; limlalelelani?
Wo dometɔ geɖewo gblɔ be, “Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le eme, eye wòle tsu kum. Migaɖo toe o.”
21 Amanye athi: Lamazwi kawasiwo wongenwe lidimoni; kambe idimoni lingavula amehlo eziphofu yini?
Ke ame bubuwo gblɔ be, “Ame sia ƒe nyawo medze abe ame si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ le la tɔ ene o. Ɖe gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ ate ŋu aʋu ŋku na ŋkuagbãtɔa?”
22 Kwakukhona umkhosi wokuvuselela eJerusalema, kwakusebusika;
Ŋutikɔkɔŋkekenyui la ɖo le Yerusalem. Enye vuvɔŋɔli,
23 uJesu wasehambahamba ethempelini ekhulusini likaSolomoni.
eye Yesu nɔ gbedoxɔ la me nɔ zɔzɔm le teƒe si woyɔna be Solomo ƒe Akpata la me.
24 AmaJuda asemhanqa, athi kuye: Koze kube nini usilibazisa? Uba wena unguKristu, sitshele ngokucacileyo.
Yudatɔwo ƒo xlãe, eye wogblɔ nɛ be, “Ɣe ka yie nàna míatsi dzimaɖi se ɖo? Nenye wòe nye Kristo la, gblɔe na mi.”
25 UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Ngalitshela, kodwa kalikholwanga; imisebenzi mina engiyenza ebizweni likaBaba, yiyo engifakazelayo;
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Megblɔ ame si menye la na mi xoxo, gake miexɔe se o. Nukunu siwo wɔm mele le Fofonye ƒe ŋkɔ me la hã le ɖase ɖim le ŋunye,
26 kodwa lina kalikholwa; ngoba kalisibo abezimvu zami, njengokutsho kwami kini.
gake miexɔe se o, elabena menye nye alẽwo mienye o.
27 Izimvu zami ziyalizwa ilizwi lami, lami ngiyazazi, futhi ziyangilandela;
Nye alẽwo sea nye gbe; menya wo, eye wodzea yonyeme.
28 njalo mina ngizinika impilo elaphakade; futhi kazisoze zabhubha laphakade, njalo kungekho ozazihluthuna esandleni sami. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
Mena agbe mavɔ wo, eye womatsrɔ̃ gbeɖe o; ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔ wo le asinye sesẽtɔe o, (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
29 UBaba ozinike mina, mkhulu kulabo bonke; kungekho njalo ongazihluthuna esandleni sikaBaba.
elabena Fofonye, ame si tsɔ wo nam la nye gã wu ame sia ame; ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔ wo le Fofonye si sesẽtɔe o.
30 Mina loBaba simunye.
Nye kple Fofonye la, ame ɖekae míenye.”
31 Ngakho amaJuda aphinda athatha amatshe ukuze amkhande ngawo.
Yudatɔwo gafɔ kpewo be yewoaƒui,
32 UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Ngilitshengise imisebenzi eminengi emihle evela kuBaba; yiwuphi umsebenzi kuyo elingikhandela wona ngamatshe?
gake Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Fofo la na mewɔ nukunuwo na mi. Nu siawo dometɔ ka ta miedi be yewoaƒu kpem ɖo?”
33 AmaJuda amphendula athi: Kasikukhandi ngamatshe ngenxa yomsebenzi omuhle, kodwa ngenxa yenhlamba, langokuthi wena ungumuntu uzenza uNkulunkulu.
Yudatɔwo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Menye nukunu siwo nèwɔ la tae míedi be míaƒu kpe wò ɖo o, ke boŋ busunya siwo gblɔm nèle la tae. Nu ka ta wò amegbetɔ nèle ɖokuiwò yɔm be Mawu ɖo?”
34 UJesu wawaphendula wathi: Kakulotshiwe yini emlayweni wenu ukuthi: Mina ngathi: Lingonkulunkulu?
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ɖe womeŋlɔe ɖe miaƒe se la me be, ‘Megblɔe be mawuwo mienye’ oa?
35 Uba wababiza bona ngokuthi ngonkulunkulu, eleza kubo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu, njalo umbhalo ungephulwe,
Ne woyɔ mi be ‘mawuwo’ la, ame kawoe Mawu ƒe nya la va na, eye womate ŋu ada le mawunya la dzi o,
36 lowo uBaba amehlukanisileyo wamthuma emhlabeni, kanti lina lithi: Uyahlambaza, ngoba ngithe: NgiyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu?
eye aleke woabu tso ame si ŋu Fofo la kɔ heɖoe ɖe xexea me ŋu? Ekema nu ka ta mietsɔ nya ɖe ŋunye be megblɔ busunya, elabena megblɔ be, ‘Menye Mawu ƒe Vi’?
37 Uba ngingenzi imisebenzi kaBaba, kalingakholwa kimi.
Ne menye Fofonye gbɔ nukunu siwo wɔm mele la tso o la, ekema migaxɔ dzinye se o.
38 Kodwa uba ngiyenza, lanxa lingakholwa kimi, kholwani imisebenzi; ukuze lazi likholwe ukuthi uBaba ukimi, lami ngikuye.
Ne mele nukunuwo wɔm, eye miexɔ dzinye se o hã la, mixɔ nukunu siwo mewɔ la dzi se, eye miadze sii be Fofo la le menye, eye nye hã mele Fofo la me.”
39 Ngakho adinga futhi ukumbamba; kodwa waphunyuka esandleni sabo.
Ameawo gadi be yewoalée, gake edo go dzo le wo gbɔ.
40 Wasebuya wasuka waya ngaphetsheya kweJordani kundawo lapho uJohane ayebhabhathiza khona kuqala; wasehlala khona.
Yesu gatrɔ ɖatso Yɔdan tɔsisi la yi egodo, eye wòyi ɖanɔ afi si Yohanes nɔ mawutsi dem ta na amewo le tsã la.
41 Labanengi beza kuye, bathi: UJohane kenzanga sibonakaliso; kodwa konke uJohane akutsho ngalo, kwakuliqiniso.
Enɔ afi sia, eye ame geɖewo va egbɔ. Ameawo gblɔ be, “Togbɔ be Yohanes mewɔ nukunu aɖeke o hã la, nya siwo katã Yohanes gblɔ tso ŋutsu sia ŋu la nye nyateƒe.”
42 Abanengi basebekholwa kuye lapho.
Ame geɖewo xɔ Yesu dzi se le teƒe sia.
