UJohane 15
1 Mina ngilivini eliqotho, njalo uBaba ungumlimi.
Ane endi mzabibu ogu gwe lyoli, odaada wane omwene mkulima we mzabibu.
2 Lonke ugatsha olukimi olungatheliyo isithelo, uyalususa; lalo lonke oluthela isithelo, uyaluthena, ukuze lwengeze ukuthela.
Isamba lya salipapa endondo, elyefwa ila isamba lya lipapa endondo alyefwa ili aje nkali papaje tee.
3 Selihlambululekile lina ngelizwi engilikhulume kini.
Amwe muli bhinza alengane ne nongwa yembabhozezye.
4 Hlalani kimi, lami kini. Njengalokhu ugatsha lungethele isithelo ngokwalo, uba lungahlali evinini, ngokunjalo lani lingeke, uba lingahlali kimi.
Mukhale muhati yane na muhati yenyu. Nanshi isamba seligapapa lyene nkaselili mumuzabibu, shesho namwe, nkase mukhala muhati yane.
5 Mina ngilivini, lina lizingatsha. Lowo ohlala kimi, lami kuye, yena uyathela isithelo sande; ngoba ngaphandle kwami lingenze lutho.
Ane endi mzabibu; amwe muli nsamba. Wakhala muhati yane nane muhati yakwe, omuntu ono apapa endondo zinyinji, afuatanaje bila ane amwe simuwezizye abhombe embombo yayonti.
6 Uba umuntu engahlali kimi, ulahlelwa phandle njengogatsha, abe esebuna, bazibuthe baziphose emlilweni, zitshiswe.
Nkashe omuntu wawonti wasaga abhakhale muhati yane, abhatagwe nanshi osamba na hwome; abhantu bhabhonganya amasamba na agataje humwoto, na galongolela.
7 Uba lihlala kimi, lamazwi ami ehlala kini, lizacela elikuthandayo, lizakwenzelwa.
Nkashe mubhakhale muhati yane, na nkashe amazu gane ganzakhale muhati yenyu, labhaji lyalyonti lya mubhahwanze, namwe mubhabhombelwe.
8 UBaba uyadunyiswa ngalokhu, ukuthi lithele isithelo sande; njalo lizakuba ngabafundi bami.
Hweli odaada amwamihwe, naje mupapa endondo zinyinji naje bhanafunzi bhane.
9 Njengalokhu uBaba engithandile, lami ngilithandile; hlalani ethandweni lwami.
Nkashe odaada wane shangene ane, ane nane embagene amwe, khalaji mulugano lwane.
10 Uba lilondoloza imilayo yami, lizahlala ethandweni lwami; njengalokhu mina ngilondoloze imilayo kaBaba, njalo ngihlala ethandweni lwakhe.
Nkashe mubhakhate endajizyo zyane, mubhakhale mulugano lwane nashi shehete endajizyo yza daada wane na khale mulugano lwakwe.
11 Lezizinto ngizikhulume kini, ukuze intokozo yami ihlale kini, njalo intokozo yenu igcwale.
Enjanjile enongwa ezi hulimwe aje olusongwo lwane lubhe muhati yenyu na aje olusongwo lwenyu lubhombeshe abhe golusu.
12 Lo ngumlayo wami, ukuthi lithandane, njengalokhu ngilithandile.
Olu lulajizyo lwane aje mganane amwe hu mwemwe nanshi sembagene amwe.
13 Kakho olothando olukhulu kulalolu, lokuthi umuntu ababekele phansi abangane bakhe impilo yakhe.
Nomo omuntu waali nolugano ogosi ashile ou aje afumwe olwizo lwakwe eshauli ya bhanje.
14 Lina lingabangane bami, uba lisenza loba yini mina engililaya yona.
Amwe muli bha mwetu nkamubhabhombe gala gembalajizya.
15 Kangisalibizi ngokuthi lizinceku, ngoba inceku kayikwazi ukuthi inkosi yayo yenzani; kodwa sengilibize ngokuthi lingabangane, ngoba konke engikuzwileyo kuBaba ngilazise khona.
Sembakwizyabhaboyi, afuatanaje oboyi samanya kila habhomba ogosi wakwe. Embakwizya amwe bhamwetu, alenganaje embabhozezye enongwa zyonti zyenonvwezye afume hwa Daada.
16 Kalingikhethanga lina, kodwa mina ngilikhethile, njalo ngilimisile, ukuze lina lihambe lithele isithelo, lesithelo senu sihlale; ukuze loba yini eliyicela kuBaba ngebizo lami, alinike.
Semwansaluye ane ila ane nabhasaluye amwe na bhabheshe aje mubhalaje apape endondo, na endondo zyenyu zipate akhale. Eli lili eshi aje hahonti hamulabha hwa Daada hwi tawa lyane, anzabhapele.
17 Ngililaya lezizinto, ukuze lithandane.
Enongwa ezi embalajizya aje mganane shila muntu nowamwabho.
18 Uba umhlaba ulizonda, yazini ukuthi wangizonda mina ngaphambi kwenu.
Nkashe ensi enzabhavitwe, mumanye aje ebhanvitwe nene sheli seele abhavitwe amwe.
19 Uba belingabomhlaba, umhlaba ubuzathanda abawo; kodwa ngoba lingeyisibo abomhlaba, kodwa ngalikhetha mina emhlabeni, ngakho umhlaba uyalizonda.
Nkashe mugali bha munsi, ensi handa ebhagene nanshi bha mwabho; Afuatanaje amwe semuli bha munsi na afwatanaje senabhachaguye afume munsi, afuatane neshi insi ebhavitwa.
20 Khumbulani ilizwi mina engalitsho kini: Inceku kayinkulu kulenkosi yayo. Uba bengizingele mina, bazalizingela lani; uba belondoloza ilizwi lami, bazalondoloza lelenu.
Komboshi izu lyana bhabhozezye, 'Oboyi se gosi ashile ogosi wakwe.' Nkashe bhanjenvezye ane, bhaibhaye nvya lyane, handabhakhete iklyalimwe lyape.
21 Kodwa bazakwenza konke lokhu ngenxa yebizo lami, ngoba bengamazi ongithumileyo.
Bhaibhabhombela amambo ega gonti alengane ni tawa lyane alengane sebhamenye ola wantumile.
22 Uba bengingafikanga ngakhuluma labo, ngabe kabalasono; kodwa khathesi kabalazaba ngesono sabo.
Nkashe engalisenenzele na bhabhozye handasabhabhombile embibhi, ila esalezi sebhali noudhuru hu mbibhi zyabho.
23 Ongizondayo, uzonda loBaba.
Wanvwitwa ane ahuvitwa yo Daada nantele.
24 Uba bengingenzanga phakathi kwabo imisebenzi kungekho omunye owayenzayo, ngabe kabalasono; kodwa khathesi sebeyibonile sebezonde sonke mina loBaba.
Nkashe sembombile embombo muhati yabho enganomo omo wabho waibhombile, handasebhali ne mbibhi; ila esalezi wabhombile gonti gabhele bhalolile na bhvitilwe ane no Daada wane.
25 Kodwa ukuze ligcwaliseke ilizwi elilotshiweyo emlayweni wabo elokuthi: Bangizonda kungelasizatho.
Ene efumila aje izu likamilishe lyalyandihwe mundajizyo: 'Zyabhowanvitwa ane bila li kosa.'
26 Kodwa nxa esefikile uMduduzi, engizamthuma mina kini evela kuBaba, uMoya weqiniso, ophuma kuBaba, lo uzangifakazela;
Wazinda ayenzele, wembahufume hulimwe afume hwa Daada, ono yayono, Ompepo we lyoli, wafuma hwa Daada, aihakikisizya.
27 lani futhi lizafakaza, ngoba belilami kusukela ekuqaleni.
Amwe mhakikisizya afuatanaje muuli pandwemo nane afume ahwande.
