Yohannis 15
1 “Ani muka wayinii dhugaa ti; kan dhaabes Abbaa koo ti.
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
2 Inni damee koo kan ija hin naqanne hunda muree gata; damee ija naqatu immoo akka inni caalaatti naqatuuf irraa qora.
Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will bear more fruit.
3 Isin dubbii ani isinitti dubbadheen amma qulqulluu dha.
You have already been pruned by the word I have spoken to you.
4 Na keessa jiraadhaa; anis isin keessa nan jiraadhaa. Akkuma dameen yoo muka wayiniitti jiraate malee ofuma isaatiin ija naqachuu hin dandeenye, isinis yoo na keessa jiraattan malee ija naqachuu hin dandeessan.
Abide in me, and I will abide in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in me.
5 “Ani muka wayinii ti; isini immoo dameewwan. Namni yoo na keessa jiraate, anis yoon isa keessa jiraadhe inni ija baayʼee naqata; isin narraa gargar baatanii homaa gochuu hin dandeessaniitii.
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me, and I in him, bears much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing.
6 Namni na keessa hin jiraanne akka damee gad gatamee goguu ti. Dameewwan akkanaa walitti qabamanii ibiddatti naqamu; ni gubamus.
If anyone does not abide in me, he is thrown out like a branch and withers. Such branches are gathered up, thrown into the fire, and burned.
7 Isin yoo na keessa jiraattan, dubbiin koos yoo isin keessa jiraate, waanuma feetan kadhadhaa; innis isiniif ni kennama.
If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you will ask for whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
8 Isin yoo ija baayʼee naqattanii fi yoo barattoota koo taatan, kanaan Abbaan koo ulfina argata.
My Father is glorified when you bear much fruit, and by doing so you will be my disciples.
9 “Akkuma Abbaan na jaallatetti anis akkasuma isin jaalladheera. Egaa jaalala koo keessa jiraadhaa.
Just as the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.
10 Akkuma ani ajajawwan Abbaa kootii eegee jaalala isaa keessa jiraadhu, isinis yoo ajajawwan koo eegdan jaalala koo keessa ni jiraattu.
If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.
11 Akka gammachuun koo isin keessa jiraatuu fi akka gammachuun keessanis guutuu taʼuuf ani waan kana isinitti himeera.
I have told you these things so that my joy may abide in you, and so that your joy may be full.
12 Ajajni koo isa kana: Akkuma ani isin jaalladhetti isinis wal jaalladhaa.
“This is my commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.
13 Eenyu iyyuu jaalala guddaa kan namni lubbuu isaa dabarsee michoota isaatiif kennu sana irra caalu hin qabu.
No one has greater love than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
14 Waan ani isin ajaje yoo raawwattan isin michoota koo ti.
You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 Garbichi waan gooftaan isaa hojjetu waan hin beekneef, ani siʼachi garboota isiniin hin jedhu. Qooda kanaa ani michoota isiniin jedheera; ani waanan Abbaa koo irraa dhagaʼe hundumaa isin beeksiseeraatii.
No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I heard from my Father.
16 Isinis akka dhaqxanii ija naqattaniif, iji keessanis akka jiraatuuf anatu isin filatee isin muude malee isin na hin filanne. Kunis akka Abbaan waan isin maqaa kootiin kadhattan kam iyyuu isinii kennuuf.
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask of the Father in my name he will give you.
17 Ajajni koo isa kana: Wal jaalladhaa.
I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.
18 “Yoo addunyaan isin jibbe, akka inni isin dura na jibbe beekaa.
“If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you.
19 Utuu isin kan addunyaa taatanii silaa addunyaan kan ofii isaa ni jaallata ture. Amma garuu waan ani addunyaa keessaa isin filadheef isin kan addunyaa miti. Kanaafuu addunyaan isin jibba.
If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, the world hates you.
20 Dubbii ani, ‘Garbichi gooftaa isaa hin caalu’jedhee isinitti hime sana yaadadhaa. Isaan erga na ariʼatanii, isinis ni ariʼatu. Yoo dubbii kootiif ajajaman, dubbii keessaniifis ni ajajamu.
Remember what I told you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they kept my word, they will keep yours also.
21 Isaan waan Isa na erge sana hin beekneef, sababii maqaa kootiitiif waan kana hunda isin irratti raawwatu.
But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me.
22 Utuu ani dhufee isaanitti himuu baadhee silaa cubbuu isaanitti hin taʼu ture. Amma garuu cubbuu isaaniitiif sababii dhiʼeeffatan hin qaban.
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Namni na jibbu Abbaa koos ni jibba.
Whoever hates me hates my Father also.
24 Utuu ani hojii namni biraa tokko iyyuu hin hojjetin gidduu isaaniitti hojjechuu baadhee silaa cubbuu isaanitti hin taʼu ture. Amma garuu utuma waan ani hojjedhe arganuu anas Abbaa koos jibbaniiru.
If I had not done among them the works that no one else had done, they would have no sin, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
25 Kunis akka dubbiin Seera isaanii keessatti, ‘Isaan akkasumaan na jibban’jedhamee barreeffame sun raawwatamuuf taʼe.
But this has happened to fulfill what is written in their law: ‘They hated me for no reason.’
26 “Jajjabeessaan ani Abbaa biraa isinii ergu, jechuunis Hafuurri Dhugaa inni Abbaa keessaa baʼu sun yommuu dhufutti waaʼee koo dhugaa baʼa.
“When the Helper comes, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.
27 Isinis jalqabaa kaaftanii waan na wajjin turtaniif dhugaa baatu.
You must also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
