< Yohani 14 >

1 Yesu kawagambira, “Namuligaziya mumyoyu mwenu. Mumjimiri Mlungu na munjimiri neni viraa.
"Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also.
2 Ukaya mwa Tati gwangu kwana mbakati zivuwa, nuwagambiriti kala na vinu nankugenda kuwanyawirani pahali penu.
In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.
3 Na pang'enda na kuwanyawilireni pahala penu, hambuyi na kuwatola, su mwenga hamuweri pamuhera naneni.
And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.
4 Muyimana njira ya kugenda aku kwang'enda.”
And where I am going, you all know the way."
5 Tomasi kamkosiya, “Mtuwa, tuvimana ndiri kwagugenda, su twankuyimana hashi njira ayi?”
"Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?"
6 Yesu kamwankula, “Neni ndo njira na unakaka na ukomu. Kwahera yakaweza kugenda kwa Tati ira kwa kupitira kwaneni.
"I am the Way," replied Jesus, "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--all of you--knew me, you would fully know my Father also. From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him."
8 Filipu kamgambira, “Mtuwa, tumlanguziyi Tati, natwenga hatwikuti.”
"Master," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father: that is all we need."
9 Yesu kamwankula, “Filipu, nulikala namwenga kwa shipindi shoseri, nagwenga gumana ndiri? Yakamoniti kala neni kamwona Tati. Guweza hashi kutakula, Tumlanguziyi Tati?
"Have I been so long among you," Jesus answered, "and yet you, Philip, do not know me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you ask me, 'Cause us to see 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.
Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries on His own work.
11 Munjimiri neni pantakula handa neni namngati mwa Tati naTati ka mngati mwaneni. Handa hangu ndiri, mjimiri toziya ya vintu vyantenda.
Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.
12 Nakaka nuwagambirani, yakanjimira neni hakatendi vitwatira vyantenda neni, yina, hakatendi vintu vikulu nentu, toziya nankugenda kwa Tati.
In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.
13 Na shoseri shamluwa mulitawu lyaneni hantendi, su Tati kakwiswi mnumba ya mwana.
And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 Pamunduwa shoseri mulitawu lyangu, hanuwatendereni.
If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.
15 “Pamunfira neni, hamulijimili lilagaliru lyaneni.
"If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
16 Naneni hanumluwi Tati nayomberi hakawapanani mtanga yumonga, hakalikali namwenga kwa mashaka goseri. (aiōn g165)
And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth. (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.
That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your side and is in you.
18 “Pang'enda hanuwaleki ndiri mwawashiwa, hanizi kayi kwamwenga.
I will not leave you bereaved: I am coming to you.
19 Katepu hera wantu wa pasipanu hawamoni kayi ndiri, kumbiti mwenga hamumoni. Toziya nana ukomu, viraa mwenga hamuweri na ukomu.
Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me: because I live, you also shall live.
20 Lishaka lilii palisokiti hamuvimani handa neni na mngati mwa Tati, naneni mngati mwamwenga.
At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you are in me, and that I am 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.”
He who has my commandments and obeys them--he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will clearly reveal myself to him."
22 Yuda, Yuda Isikariyoti ndiri, kamgambira, “Mtuwa, hashi iwezekana gwenga kulilanguziya kwatwenga na gulilanguziya ndiri kwa wantu wa pasipanu?”
Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, "Master, how is it that you will reveal yourself clearly 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.
"If any one loves me," replied Jesus, "he will obey my teaching; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 Yakanfira ndiri hapeni kagajimili mafundu gangu. Na mafundu gampikaniriti gangu ndiri, galawa kwa Tati yakantumiti.
He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.
25 “Nuwagambiriti vitwatira avi pamweriti nakali na mwenga.
"All this I have spoken to you while still with you.
26 Kumbiti mtanga, Rohu Mnanagala, ndomweni Tati hakamtumi mulitawu lyaneni, hakawafundeni kila shintu na kuwakumbusiyani goseri ganuwagambirani.
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring to your memories all that I have said to you.
27 “Nuwalekera ponga, nuwapanani ponga yangu. Nuwapanani ndiri mwenga gambira wantu wa pasipanu ntambu yawatenda. Namuwera na lyoga ama namuhinginyika.
Peace I leave with you: my own peace I give to you. It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace. Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.
28 Mpikaniriti kala panuwagambira, Nankugenda zyangu, shakapanu hambuyi kayi kwamwenga. Handa munganfiriti, munganemeli toziya nankugenda kwa Tati, yomberi ndo mkulu nentu kuliku neni.
"You heard me say to you, 'I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.
29 Nuwagambireni aga vinu pamberi ganalawira, su pagalawila mpati kujimira.
I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has come to pass you may believe.
30 Ntakula ndiri namwenga kayi vitwatira avi vivuwa, mana mtuwa gwa pasipanu kankwiza. Hapeni kawezi shintu kwaneni,
In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince of this world is coming. And yet in me he has nothing;
31 kumbiti wantu wa pasi panu mpaka wavimani handa numufira Tati, ndo mana ntenda kila shintu gambira Tati ntambu yakanamuwiti. “Mgoloki, tuwuki panu!”
but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father, and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father gave me that I thus act. Rise, let us be going."
