Yohana 16
1 Niabakie makowe aga ili muweze kwaa kukwazwa.
“I have said these things to you so that you wouldn’t be caused to stumble.
2 Walowa kuwaboywa panja ya sinagogi; hakika saa inda isa yabile kila ywaababulaga alowa waza kuwa apanga kazi inoite kwa ajili ya Nnongo.
They will put you out of the synagogues. Yes, the time is coming that whoever kills you will think that he offers service to God.
3 Balowa kuapangia makowe aga kwa sababu bantangite kwaa Tate wala banitangite kwaa nenga.
They will do these things because they have not known the Father nor me.
4 Niabakiye makowe aga ili muda mana uikite wa pangika aga, mwaweza kugakombokya ni namani niabakiye muwese wabe. Niabakie kwaa makowe aga boka mwanzo kwa mana nabile pamope ni mwenga.
But I have told you these things so that when the time comes, you may remember that I told you about them. I didn’t tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
5 Ingawa, nambeambe niyenda kwa yolo ywanitumile; lakini ntopo nkati yinu ywanilaluye, “Uyenda kwaako?”
But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’
6 Kwa mana nilongela maneno aga kwinu, uzuni ubile mioyoni mwinu.
But because I have told you these things, sorrow has filled your heart.
7 Hata nyoo, naabakiya ukweli; inoyite kwinu mana niboi; kwa kuwa mana niyei kwaa, mfariji aisa kwaa kwinu; lakini mana niyei nalowa kuntuma kwinu.
Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I don’t go away, the Counsellor won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
8 Mana aisile, aywoo mfariji alowa kuuthibitishia ulimwengu kuhusu sambi, kuhusu haki na husiana na hukumu.
When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgement;
9 Husiana na sambi, kwa kuwa baniaminiya kwaa nenga,
about sin, because they don’t believe in me;
10 husiana na haki, kwa kuwa niyenda kwa Tate, na munibona kwaa kae;
about righteousness, because I am going to my Father, and you won’t see me any more;
11 na husiana na hukumu kwa kuwa nkolo wa ulimwengu woo ahukumilwe.
about judgement, because the prince of this world has been judged.
12 Nabile na yanyansima kuabakiya, lakini mwalowa kugaelewa kwaa nambeambe,
“I still have many things to tell you, but you can’t bear them now.
13 Lakini, ywembe, Roho wa kweli, mana aisile, alowa kuayongolya mu'ukweli woti; kwa kuwa alongela kwaa kwaajili yake mwene; lakini yoyote ywagayowine, atagabaya makowe ago; ni kugadhihirisha kwinu makowe gaisa.
However, when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.
14 Ywembe alowa kunitukuza nenga, kwa kuwa alowa kugatola makowe gangu ni kugatangaza kwinu.
He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine and will declare it to you.
15 Ilebe yoti yaabile nayo Tate ni yango; kwa eyo, nibayite kuwa Roho alowa tola makowe gango ni kugadhihirisha kwinu.
All things that the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine and will declare it to you.
16 Bado muda mwipi, mwalowa kunibona kwaa kae, ni baada ya muda mwipi kae, mwalowa kunibona.
“A little while, and you will not see me. Again a little while, and you will see me.”
17 Baadhi ya anapunzi bake kabakokeyana, “Namani atubakiya, “muda mwipi, mwalowa kunibona kae,'na boka po, muda mwipi mwalowa kunibonekeya,'ni kwa kuwa niyenda kwa Tate?
Some of his disciples therefore said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me;’ and, ‘Because I go to the Father’?”
18 Kwa eyo kababaya, “Ni kilebe gani akibaya,'Bado muda mwipi'? Tutangite kwaa abaya buli.”
They said therefore, “What is this that he says, ‘A little while’? We don’t know what he is saying.”
19 Yesu abweni kuwa bapala kunnaluya, ni ywembe kaabakiya, “Mwailaluya bene kuhusu lee, lyanilibayite,'Bado muda mwipi, munibonekeya kwaa kae; na baada ya muda mwipi mwalowa kunibona'?
Therefore Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask him, and he said to them, “Do you enquire amongst yourselves concerning this, that I said, ‘A little while, and you won’t see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’?
20 Amini, amini, naabakiya, mwalowa lela ni kulomboleza, lakini ulimwengu walowa puraikia, mwapangilwa kuwa ni huzuni lakini huzuni yinu yalowa galambuka kuwa puraha.
Most certainly I tell you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.
21 Mwanamke apangilwa kuwa ni huzuni paabile ni uchungu kwa kuwa muda wo beleka uikite; lakini mana abelekile mwana, akombokya kwaa matamwe kwa sababu ya puraha yake kuwa mwana abelekwile mudunia.
A woman, when she gives birth, has sorrow because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she doesn’t remember the anguish any more, for the joy that a human being is born into the world.
22 Mwenga kae mwabile ni huzuni nambeambe, lakini nalowa kuabona kae; ni mioyo yinu yalowa puraika na ntopo ywaweza kuiboywa puraha yinu.
Therefore you now have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.
23 Lisoba lyoo mwanilaluya kwaa maswali, Amini. amini, naabakiya, Mukiloba lolote kwa Tate, awapea kwa lina lyango.
“In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
24 Mpaka nambeambe mulobote kwaa lolote kwa lina lyango, mulobe, ni mwenga mwapokya ili puraha yinu ibe kamili.
Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.
25 Nilongela ni mwenga kwa lugha iyowanika kwaa, lakini saa yaisa ambapo nilongela kwaa kwa lugha ieleweka kwaa lakini badala yake nitaamakiya wazi wazi husu Tate.
“I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. But the time is coming when I will no more speak to you in figures of speech, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
26 Lisoba loo mwalowa loba kwa lina lyango, na niabakiya kwaa kuwa nalowa loba kwa Tate kwa ajili yinu;
In that day you will ask in my name; and I don’t say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,
27 Kwa kuwa Tate mwene abapendike mwenga kwa kuwa munipendike nenga ni kwa kuwa muaaminiya kuwa niboka kwa Tate.
for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came from God.
28 Nibokite kwa Tate ni kuisa ku'ulimwengu; kae; naboka mu'ulimwengu na kuyenda kwa Tate.”
I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father.”
29 Anapunzi bake kabammakiya, “Linga, nambeambe ulongela wazi wazi na utumii kwaa mafumbo.
His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech.
30 Nambeambe tutangite kuwa utangite makowe yote, na umpala kwaa mundu yeyote akulaluye maswali. Kwa kuwa lee twaliaminiya kuwa laboka kwa Nnongo.
Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.”
31 Yesu kaayangwa, “Nambeambe mwaniaminiya?”
Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe?
32 Linga, saa yaisa, nga hakika iikite, ambapo mwalowa tawanyika kila yumo ni kwabe mwalowa kunileka mwene. Lakini nibile kwaa kichango kwa sababu Tate abile ni nenga.
Behold, the time is coming, yes, and has now come, that you will be scattered, everyone to his own place, and you will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
33 Naabakiya makowea aga ili mube ni amani nkati yango. Mu'dunia mwabile ni matatizo, lakini muipeye mwoyo, niushindile ulimwengu.
I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have trouble; but cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
