< Yohannis 15 >
1 “Ani muka wayinii dhugaa ti; kan dhaabes Abbaa koo ti.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman:
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 beareth not fruit He taketh away, and every one that beareth fruit, He purgeth, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Isin dubbii ani isinitti dubbadheen amma qulqulluu dha.
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto 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 therefore in me, and I will abide in you: for as the branch cannot bear fruit of it self, unless it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye 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, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him, beareth much fruit: but without me ye can do nothing.
6 Namni na keessa hin jiraanne akka damee gad gatamee goguu ti. Dameewwan akkanaa walitti qabamanii ibiddatti naqamu; ni gubamus.
If any one abide not in me, he is cast out as a useless branch and withereth: and they gather them up, and throw them into the fire, and they are burnt.
7 Isin yoo na keessa jiraattan, dubbiin koos yoo isin keessa jiraate, waanuma feetan kadhadhaa; innis isiniif ni kennama.
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask what ye will, and it shall be granted you.
8 Isin yoo ija baayʼee naqattanii fi yoo barattoota koo taatan, kanaan Abbaan koo ulfina argata.
Herein is my father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so shall ye be my disciples.
9 “Akkuma Abbaan na jaallatetti anis akkasuma isin jaalladheera. Egaa jaalala koo keessa jiraadhaa.
As the Father hath loved me, and I have loved you, continue in my love:
10 Akkuma ani ajajawwan Abbaa kootii eegee jaalala isaa keessa jiraadhu, isinis yoo ajajawwan koo eegdan jaalala koo keessa ni jiraattu.
and if ye keep my commandments ye will continue in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and continue in his love.
11 Akka gammachuun koo isin keessa jiraatuu fi akka gammachuun keessanis guutuu taʼuuf ani waan kana isinitti himeera.
These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy in you may continue, and that your joy may be full.
12 Ajajni koo isa kana: Akkuma ani isin jaalladhetti isinis wal jaalladhaa.
This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Eenyu iyyuu jaalala guddaa kan namni lubbuu isaa dabarsee michoota isaatiif kennu sana irra caalu hin qabu.
Greater love hath no one than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends:
14 Waan ani isin ajaje yoo raawwattan isin michoota koo ti.
and ye are my friends, if ye do what 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.
I no longer stile you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doth: but I have called you friends; for whatsoever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
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.
Ye did not first choose me, but I chose you, and have appointed you to go forth, and bear fruit, and that your fruit should be lasting: that whatsoever ye ask the Father in my name, He may give it you.
17 Ajajni koo isa kana: Wal jaalladhaa.
These commands I give you, that ye should love one another.
18 “Yoo addunyaan isin jibbe, akka inni isin dura na jibbe beekaa.
If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me first.
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 ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth 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 said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have observed my word, they will also observe yours.
21 Isaan waan Isa na erge sana hin beekneef, sababii maqaa kootiitiif waan kana hunda isin irratti raawwatu.
But all these things will they do unto you, on my account, because they know not Him that 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 unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Namni na jibbu Abbaa koos ni jibba.
He that hateth me, hateth 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 such works as no other ever did, they had not comparatively had sin: but now they have both 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 thus it is that the word might be fulfilled, which is written in their law, they hated me without a cause.
26 “Jajjabeessaan ani Abbaa biraa isinii ergu, jechuunis Hafuurri Dhugaa inni Abbaa keessaa baʼu sun yommuu dhufutti waaʼee koo dhugaa baʼa.
But when the comforter is come, whom I will send to you from the Father, (even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, ) He shall testify of me.
27 Isinis jalqabaa kaaftanii waan na wajjin turtaniif dhugaa baatu.
And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
