Yohana 15
1 Ane endi mzabibu ogu gwe lyoli, odaada wane omwene mkulima we mzabibu.
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
2 Isamba lya salipapa endondo, elyefwa ila isamba lya lipapa endondo alyefwa ili aje nkali papaje tee.
Every branch in me not producing fruit, He takes it away: and every one producing fruit, He purifies it, that it may produce more fruit.
3 Amwe muli bhinza alengane ne nongwa yembabhozezye.
So ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Mukhale muhati yane na muhati yenyu. Nanshi isamba seligapapa lyene nkaselili mumuzabibu, shesho namwe, nkase mukhala muhati yane.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch is not able to produce fruit of itself, unless it may abide in the vine; so you are not able, unless you may abide in me.
5 Ane endi mzabibu; amwe muli nsamba. Wakhala muhati yane nane muhati yakwe, omuntu ono apapa endondo zinyinji, afuatanaje bila ane amwe simuwezizye abhombe embombo yayonti.
I am the vine, and ye are the branches. The one abiding in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit: because you are not able to do anything without me.
6 Nkashe omuntu wawonti wasaga abhakhale muhati yane, abhatagwe nanshi osamba na hwome; abhantu bhabhonganya amasamba na agataje humwoto, na galongolela.
If any one may not abide in me, he is cast out as a branch, and withered; and they gather it, and cast it into the fire, and it is burnt.
7 Nkashe mubhakhale muhati yane, na nkashe amazu gane ganzakhale muhati yenyu, labhaji lyalyonti lya mubhahwanze, namwe mubhabhombelwe.
If you may abide in me, and my words may abide in you, ask whatsoever you may wish, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Hweli odaada amwamihwe, naje mupapa endondo zinyinji naje bhanafunzi bhane.
In this my Father is glorified, that you may bear much fruit; and ye shall be my disciples.
9 Nkashe odaada wane shangene ane, ane nane embagene amwe, khalaji mulugano lwane.
As the Father loved me, I also loved you: abide in my love.
10 Nkashe mubhakhate endajizyo zyane, mubhakhale mulugano lwane nashi shehete endajizyo yza daada wane na khale mulugano lwakwe.
If you may keep my commandments, abide in my love; as I have kept the commandments of my Father, and I abide in His love.
11 Enjanjile enongwa ezi hulimwe aje olusongwo lwane lubhe muhati yenyu na aje olusongwo lwenyu lubhombeshe abhe golusu.
I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
12 Olu lulajizyo lwane aje mganane amwe hu mwemwe nanshi sembagene amwe.
This is my commandment, that you may love one another, as I loved you.
13 Nomo omuntu waali nolugano ogosi ashile ou aje afumwe olwizo lwakwe eshauli ya bhanje.
No one has greater love than this, that he may lay down his soul for his friends.
14 Amwe muli bha mwetu nkamubhabhombe gala gembalajizya.
You are my friends, if you may do those things which I command you.
15 Sembakwizyabhaboyi, afuatanaje oboyi samanya kila habhomba ogosi wakwe. Embakwizya amwe bhamwetu, alenganaje embabhozezye enongwa zyonti zyenonvwezye afume hwa Daada.
No longer do I call you servants; because the servant knows not what his lord is doing: but I have called you friends; because all things which I heard with my Father, I made known unto you.
16 Semwansaluye ane ila ane nabhasaluye amwe na bhabheshe aje mubhalaje apape endondo, na endondo zyenyu zipate akhale. Eli lili eshi aje hahonti hamulabha hwa Daada hwi tawa lyane, anzabhapele.
You did not choose me, but I chose you, and placed you in your position, that you may go forth and bear fruit, and your fruit may abide: in order that He may give you whatsoever you may ask in my name.
17 Enongwa ezi embalajizya aje mganane shila muntu nowamwabho.
I command these things unto you, that you must love one another with divine love.
18 Nkashe ensi enzabhavitwe, mumanye aje ebhanvitwe nene sheli seele abhavitwe amwe.
If the world hates you, know that it first hated me.
19 Nkashe mugali bha munsi, ensi handa ebhagene nanshi bha mwabho; Afuatanaje amwe semuli bha munsi na afwatanaje senabhachaguye afume munsi, afuatane neshi insi ebhavitwa.
If you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you.
20 Komboshi izu lyana bhabhozezye, 'Oboyi se gosi ashile ogosi wakwe.' Nkashe bhanjenvezye ane, bhaibhaye nvya lyane, handabhakhete iklyalimwe lyape.
Remember the word which I spoke to you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
21 Bhaibhabhombela amambo ega gonti alengane ni tawa lyane alengane sebhamenye ola wantumile.
But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know Him that sent me.
22 Nkashe engalisenenzele na bhabhozye handasabhabhombile embibhi, ila esalezi sebhali noudhuru hu mbibhi zyabho.
If I did not come and speak to them, they had not sin: now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Wanvwitwa ane ahuvitwa yo Daada nantele.
The one hating me hates my Father also.
24 Nkashe sembombile embombo muhati yabho enganomo omo wabho waibhombile, handasebhali ne mbibhi; ila esalezi wabhombile gonti gabhele bhalolile na bhvitilwe ane no Daada wane.
If I did not works among them which no other did: they had not sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.
25 Ene efumila aje izu likamilishe lyalyandihwe mundajizyo: 'Zyabhowanvitwa ane bila li kosa.'
But in order that the word having been written in their law may be fulfilled, That they hated me gratuitously.
26 Wazinda ayenzele, wembahufume hulimwe afume hwa Daada, ono yayono, Ompepo we lyoli, wafuma hwa Daada, aihakikisizya.
When the Comforter, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, may come, He will witness concerning me,
27 Amwe mhakikisizya afuatanaje muuli pandwemo nane afume ahwande.
but you indeed are witnesses, because you are with me from the beginning.
