Yohani 14
1 Yesu kawagambira, “Namuligaziya mumyoyu mwenu. Mumjimiri Mlungu na munjimiri neni viraa.
“Don't let your minds be anxious. Trust in God, trust in me as well.
2 Ukaya mwa Tati gwangu kwana mbakati zivuwa, nuwagambiriti kala na vinu nankugenda kuwanyawirani pahali penu.
In my Father's house there are many rooms. If this wasn't so I would have told you. I'm going to prepare a place for you.
3 Na pang'enda na kuwanyawilireni pahala penu, hambuyi na kuwatola, su mwenga hamuweri pamuhera naneni.
Once I've gone and prepared a place for you, I will come again and take you back with me, so that you can be there with me too.
4 Muyimana njira ya kugenda aku kwang'enda.”
You know the way to where I'm going.”
5 Tomasi kamkosiya, “Mtuwa, tuvimana ndiri kwagugenda, su twankuyimana hashi njira ayi?”
Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don't know where you're going. How can we know the way?”
6 Yesu kamwankula, “Neni ndo njira na unakaka na ukomu. Kwahera yakaweza kugenda kwa Tati ira kwa kupitira kwaneni.
Jesus replied, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7 Kawagambira, vinu mumana neni, mumana na Tati gwangu viraa. Na kwanjira vinu mumana na mumwona kala.”
If you had known me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and you have seen him.”
8 Filipu kamgambira, “Mtuwa, tumlanguziyi Tati, natwenga hatwikuti.”
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we'll be convinced.”
9 Yesu kamwankula, “Filipu, nulikala namwenga kwa shipindi shoseri, nagwenga gumana ndiri? Yakamoniti kala neni kamwona Tati. Guweza hashi kutakula, Tumlanguziyi Tati?
Jesus replied, “Have I been with you such a long time, Philip, and yet you still don't know me? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Hashi, mjimira ndiri handa neni namngati mwa Tati, nayomberi Tati ka mngati mwaneni? Visoweru nyanuwagambirani ntakula ndiri kwa utuwa waneni, Tati yakawera mngati mwaneni kankutenda lihengu lyakuwi.
Don't you believe that I live in the Father and the Father lives in me? The words I speak are not mine; it's the Father living in me who is doing his work.
11 Munjimiri neni pantakula handa neni namngati mwa Tati naTati ka mngati mwaneni. Handa hangu ndiri, mjimiri toziya ya vintu vyantenda.
Believe me when I tell you that I live in the Father, and the Father lives in me, or at least believe because of the evidence provided by all that I've done.
12 Nakaka nuwagambirani, yakanjimira neni hakatendi vitwatira vyantenda neni, yina, hakatendi vintu vikulu nentu, toziya nankugenda kwa Tati.
I tell you the truth, anyone who trusts in me will do the same things I am doing. In fact they will do even greater things because I am going to the Father.
13 Na shoseri shamluwa mulitawu lyaneni hantendi, su Tati kakwiswi mnumba ya mwana.
I'll do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified through the Son.
14 Pamunduwa shoseri mulitawu lyangu, hanuwatendereni.
Whatever you ask for in my name, I will do it.
15 “Pamunfira neni, hamulijimili lilagaliru lyaneni.
If you love me, you will keep my commands.
16 Naneni hanumluwi Tati nayomberi hakawapanani mtanga yumonga, hakalikali namwenga kwa mashaka goseri. (aiōn g165)
I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Comforter, (aiōn g165)
17 Yomberi ndo Rohu yakalanguziya unakaka kuusu Mlungu. Wantu wa pasipanu waweza ndiri kumuwanka toziya waweza ndiri kumwona wala kummana. Kumbiti mwenga mumana toziya kalikala namwenga na ka mngati mwenu.
the Spirit of truth, who will always be with you. The world cannot accept him because it isn't looking for him and does not know him. But you know him because he lives with you and will be in you.
18 “Pang'enda hanuwaleki ndiri mwawashiwa, hanizi kayi kwamwenga.
I will not abandon you like orphans: I will come back to you.
19 Katepu hera wantu wa pasipanu hawamoni kayi ndiri, kumbiti mwenga hamumoni. Toziya nana ukomu, viraa mwenga hamuweri na ukomu.
Soon the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too.
20 Lishaka lilii palisokiti hamuvimani handa neni na mngati mwa Tati, naneni mngati mwamwenga.
On that day you will know that I live in the Father, you live in me, and I live in you.
21 “Yakagayanka malagaliru ganeni na kugajimira, ndoweni walii yawanfira neni. Tati gwangu hakawafiri woseri yawanfira neni, naneni vulaa hanuwafiri womberi na hanulilanguziyi kwawomberi.”
Those who keep my commands are the ones who love me, those who love me will be loved by my Father. I will love them too, and will reveal myself to them.”
22 Yuda, Yuda Isikariyoti ndiri, kamgambira, “Mtuwa, hashi iwezekana gwenga kulilanguziya kwatwenga na gulilanguziya ndiri kwa wantu wa pasipanu?”
Judas (not Iscariot) responded, “Lord, why would you reveal yourself to us and not to the world?”
23 Yesu kamwankula, “Muntu pakanfira neni hakagajimili mafundu gangu na Tati gwangu hakamfiri, neni pamuhera na Tati gwangu hatwizi kulikala nayomberi.
Jesus replied, “Those who love me will do as I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with them.
24 Yakanfira ndiri hapeni kagajimili mafundu gangu. Na mafundu gampikaniriti gangu ndiri, galawa kwa Tati yakantumiti.
Those who don't love me don't do what I say. These words don't come from me, they come from the Father who sent me.
25 “Nuwagambiriti vitwatira avi pamweriti nakali na mwenga.
I'm explaining this to you while I'm still here with you.
26 Kumbiti mtanga, Rohu Mnanagala, ndomweni Tati hakamtumi mulitawu lyaneni, hakawafundeni kila shintu na kuwakumbusiyani goseri ganuwagambirani.
But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.
27 “Nuwalekera ponga, nuwapanani ponga yangu. Nuwapanani ndiri mwenga gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawatenda. Namuwera na lyoga ama namuhinginyika.
Peace I leave you; my peace I'm giving you. The peace I give you is nothing like what the world gives. Don't let your minds be anxious, and don't be afraid.
28 Mpikaniriti kala panuwagambira, Nankugenda zyangu, shakapanu hambuyi kayi kwamwenga. Handa munganfiriti, munganemeli toziya nankugenda kwa Tati, yomberi ndo mkulu nentu kuliku neni.
You've heard me tell you, ‘I am going away, but I will come back to you.’ If you really loved me, you would be happy because I'm going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
29 Nuwagambireni aga vinu pamberi ganalawira, su pagalawila mpati kujimira.
I've explained this to you now before it happens so that when it does happen you will be convinced.
30 Ntakula ndiri namwenga kayi vitwatira avi vivuwa, mana mtuwa gwa pasipanu kankwiza. Hapeni kawezi shintu kwaneni,
I can't talk to you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no power to control me,
31 kumbiti wantu wa pasi panu mpaka wavimani handa numufira Tati, ndo mana ntenda kila shintu gambira Tati ntambu yakanamuwiti. “Mgoloki, tuwuki panu!”
but I'm doing what my Father told me to do so that the world will know that I love the Father. Now get up. Let's go.”
