UJohane 16
1 Lezizinto ngizikhulume kini, ukuze lingakhubeki.
“Mereka eyinom nyinaa akyerɛ mo na moatumi agyina pintinn.
2 Bazalikhupha emasinagogeni; yebo isikhathi siyeza, lapho wonke olibulalayo ezacabanga ukuthi wenzela uNkulunkulu inkonzo.
Wɔbɛpam mo afi wɔn asɔredan mu. Na bere bi bɛba a obiara a obekum mo no besusuw sɛ, sɛ ɔyɛ saa a na ɔresom Onyankopɔn.
3 Lalezizinto bazazenza kini, ngoba bengamazanga uBaba loba mina.
Wɔde saa nneɛma yi bɛyɛ mo, efisɛ wonnim Agya no na me nso wonnim me.
4 Kodwa ngikhulume lezizinto kini, ukuze lapho sesifikile isikhathi, lizikhumbule ukuthi mina ngalitshela. Kodwa lezizinto kangizikhulumanga kini kwasekuqaleni, ngoba bengilani.
Nanso mereka eyi akyerɛ mo, sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a sɛ bere no du a, mobɛkae nea meka kyerɛɛ mo no. Mfiase no manka eyi ankyerɛ mo, efisɛ na meka mo ho.”
5 Kodwa khathesi ngiyahamba ngiya kongithumileyo, kanti kakho kini ongibuza ukuthi: Uya ngaphi?
“Afei de, merekɔ nea ɔsomaa me no nkyɛn. Nanso mo mu biara mmisaa me se, ‘Ɛhe na worekɔ?’
6 Kodwa ngoba ngikhulume lezizinto kini, usizi lugcwalise inhliziyo yenu.
Nea maka akyerɛ mo yi ama mo werɛ ahow.
7 Kodwa mina ngilitshela iqiniso: Kulilungele ukuthi mina ngihambe; ngoba nxa ngingahambi, uMduduzi kayikuza kini; kodwa nxa ngihamba, ngizamthuma kini.
Nanso meka nokware kyerɛ mo; eye ma mo sɛ mɛkɔ, efisɛ sɛ mankɔ a ɔboafo no remma mo nkyɛn, nanso sɛ mekɔ a mɛsoma no aba mo nkyɛn.
8 Njalo nxa esefikile yena uzaqinisekisa umhlaba ngesono langokulunga langesigwebo;
Na sɛ ɔba a, ɔbɛma wiasefo ahu wɔn bɔne ne nea ɛyɛ trenee ne Onyankopɔn atemmu.
9 ngesono, ngoba kabakholwa kimi;
Nea wɔka fa bɔne ho no nyɛ nokware, efisɛ wonnye me nni.
10 langokulunga, ngoba ngiya kuBaba, kalisayikungibona;
Nea wɔka fa trenee ho no nyɛ nokware, efisɛ merekɔ Agya no nkyɛn na morenhu me bio.
11 langesigwebo, ngoba umbusi walumhlaba usegwetshiwe.
Saa ara na nea wɔka fa atemmu ho no nso nyɛ nokware, efisɛ wɔabu wiase yi temmufo no atɛn dedaw.
12 Ngiseselezinto ezinengi engingalitshela zona, kodwa lingezithwale khathesi;
“Mewɔ nsɛm pii ka kyerɛ mo, nanso mprempren de, morentumi nte ase.
13 kodwa nxa yena esefikile, uMoya weqiniso, uzalikhokhelela eqinisweni lonke; ngoba kayikuzikhulumela ngokwakhe, kodwa loba yini ayizwayo uzayikhuluma, alibikele izinto ezizayo.
Sɛ nokware Honhom no ba a, ɔbɛma moahu nokware no nyinaa. Ɔrenkasa mma ne ho, na mmom nea ɔte no na ɔbɛka, na ɔbɛka nneɛma a ɛbɛba no ho nsɛm akyerɛ mo.
14 Yena uzangidumisa, ngoba uzathatha okungokwami, alibikele khona.
Ɔbɛhyɛ me anuonyam, efisɛ obetie asɛm biara a meka no na wabɛka akyerɛ mo.
15 Konke uBaba alakho, kungokwami; yikho-ke ngisithi uzathatha okungokwami, alibikele khona.
Biribiara a mʼAgya wɔ no yɛ me dea. Ɛno nti na mekae se Honhom no betie biribiara a meka kyerɛ no na wabɛka akyerɛ mo no.”
16 Okwesikhatshana futhi kaliyikungibona, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibona, ngoba mina ngiya kuBaba.
“Aka kakraa bi morenhu me, nanso ɛno akyi no ɛrenkyɛ koraa, mubehu me bio.”
17 Ngakho abanye kubafundi bakhe bakhulumisana besithi: Kuyini lokho akutsho kithi: Okwesikhatshana, futhi kaliyikungibona, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibona; lokuthi: Ngoba mina ngiya kuBaba?
Asuafo no bi bisabisaa wɔn ho wɔn ho se, “Eyi ase ne dɛn? Ɔreka akyerɛ yɛn se, ‘Aka kakraa bi morenhu me nanso ɛno akyi no, ɛrenkyɛ koraa na moasan ahu me.’ Ɔsan kaa bio se, ‘Efisɛ merekɔ Agya no nkyɛn.’”
18 Basebesithi: Kuyini lokhu akutshoyo ukuthi: Okwesikhatshana? Kasazi ukuthi utshoni.
Wɔsan bisaa bio se, “Saa asɛm, ‘aka kakra’ yi ase ne dɛn? Yɛnte nea ɔreka yi ase.”
19 UJesu wayesesazi ukuthi babethanda ukumbuza, wasesithi kubo: Liyabuzana ngalokho yini, ukuthi ngithe: Okwesikhatshana futhi kaliyikungibona, kubuye kube yisikhatshana libe selingibona?
Yesu huu sɛ wɔpɛ sɛ wobisa no asɛm a ɔkae no ase no nti ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Mekae se, ‘aka kakraa bi morenhu me, nanso ɛno akyi no, ɛrenkyɛ koraa mubehu me bio.’ Eyi ne asɛm a monte ase a enti morebisabisa mo ho mo ho yi?
20 Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Lina lizakhala lilile, kodwa umhlaba uzathokoza; futhi lizakuba losizi lina, kodwa usizi lwenu luzaphendulwa lube yintokozo.
Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo; mo werɛ bɛhow na moasu, nanso wiasefo ani begye. Mubedi awerɛhow nanso mo awerɛhow no bɛdan anigye.
21 Owesifazana nxa ebeletha ulobuhlungu, ngoba ihola lakhe selifikile; kodwa nxa esebelethe usane, kasakhumbuli ubuhlungu, ngenxa yentokozo yokuthi kuzelwe umuntu emhlabeni.
Sɛ ɔbea rebɛwo a, ne werɛ how, efisɛ nʼamanehunu bere adu so, nanso sɛ onya wo a ne werɛ fi ne yaw, efisɛ nʼani gye sɛ wawo onipa aba wiase.
22 Ngakho lani-ke lilosizi khathesi; kodwa ngizabuya ngilibone, lenhliziyo yenu ithokoze, njalo kakho ongalemuka intokozo yenu.
Saa ara na ɛte wɔ mo ho. Mprempren yɛ mo awerɛhow bere, nanso mehu mo bio ama mo ani agye na obi rentumi nnye saa anigye no mfi mo nsam.
23 Langalolosuku kaliyikungibuza lutho. Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile, ngithi kini: Loba kuyini elizakucela kuBaba ebizweni lami uzalinika.
Sɛ saa da no du a moremmisa me biribiara. Mereka nokware akyerɛ mo, Agya no de biribiara a mode me din bebisa no bɛma mo.
24 Kuze kube khathesi kalicelanga lutho ebizweni lami; celani, lizakwemukeliswa, ukuze intokozo yenu igcwale.
Ebesi saa bere yi momfaa me din mmisaa biribiara da. Mummisa na wɔde bɛma mo na mo anigye awie pɛyɛ.
25 Ngikhulume izinto lezi kini ngemifanekiso; kodwa isikhathi siyeza lapho ngingasayikukhuluma kini ngemifanekiso, kodwa ngizalitshela ngoBaba ngokucacileyo.
“Menam mmebu mu na maka eyinom akyerɛ mo. Nanso bere bi bɛba a merenkasa wɔ mmebu mu bio, na mmom mɛka biribiara a ɛfa Agya no ho no pefee akyerɛ mo.
26 Ngalolosuku lizacela ebizweni lami; njalo kangitsho kini ukuthi ngizalicelela mina kuBaba;
Sɛ saa da no du a mode me din bebisa no biribiara a ɛho hia mo. Menka se me na mebisa Agya no ama mo,
27 ngoba uBaba uqobo uyalithanda, ngoba lina lingithandile, likholiwe ukuthi mina ngiphume kuNkulunkulu.
efisɛ Agya no ankasa dɔ mo. Ɔdɔ mo, efisɛ modɔ me na moagye adi sɛ mifi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn na mebae.
28 Ngiphume kuBaba, njalo ngeza emhlabeni; ngiyasuka futhi emhlabeni, ngiya kuBaba.
Mifi Agya no nkyɛn na mebaa wiase; na afei merefi wiase akɔ Agya no nkyɛn.”
29 Abafundi bakhe bathi kuye: Khangela khathesi ukhuluma ngokucacileyo, njalo kawukhulumi lamfanekiso.
Nʼasuafo no ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Afei de, wokasa pefee ma yɛte wo ase.
30 Khathesi siyazi ukuthi uyazi izinto zonke, njalo kawudingi ukuthi umuntu akubuze; ngalokhu siyakholwa ukuthi uphume kuNkulunkulu.
Yɛahu sɛ wunim biribiara; ɛho nhia sɛ obi bisa wo nsɛm. Eyi ama yɛagye adi sɛ wufi Onyankopɔn nkyɛn.”
31 UJesu wabaphendula wathi: Selikholwa yini?
Yesu buaa wɔn se. “Afei de, mugye di ana?
32 Khangelani, ihola liyeza, yebo selifikile, elokuthi lihlakazeke ngulowo lalowo aye kubo, lingitshiye ngingedwa; kanti kangingedwa, ngoba uBaba ulami.
Bere bi rebedu; na mpo adu dedaw a mo nyinaa bɛbɔ ahwete na obiara akɔ nʼankasa fi na aka me nko. Nanso ɛrenka me nko efisɛ Agya no ka me ho.
33 Ngikhulume lezizinto kini, ukuze libe lokuthula kimi. Emhlabeni lizakuba lenhlupheko; kodwa manini isibindi, mina ngiwunqobile umhlaba.
“Maka eyinom akyerɛ mo na moanya asomdwoe wɔ me mu. Mubehu amane wɔ wiase. Nanso munnyina pintinn! Madi wiase so nkonim!”
