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 cultivator.
2 Isamba lya salipapa endondo, elyefwa ila isamba lya lipapa endondo alyefwa ili aje nkali papaje tee.
Every branch in me, which yieldeth not fruits, he taketh it away: and that which yieldeth fruits, he cleanseth it, that it may yield more fruits.
3 Amwe muli bhinza alengane ne nongwa yembabhozezye.
Ye henceforth are clean, on account of the discourse I have held with 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 cannot yield fruits of itself, unless it abide in the vine; so also, neither can ye, unless ye 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. He that abideth in me, and I in him, he yieldeth much fruit; for without me, ye can do nothing.
6 Nkashe omuntu wawonti wasaga abhakhale muhati yane, abhatagwe nanshi osamba na hwome; abhantu bhabhonganya amasamba na agataje humwoto, na galongolela.
And if a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a withered branch; and they gather it up, and cast it into the fire to be burned.
7 Nkashe mubhakhale muhati yane, na nkashe amazu gane ganzakhale muhati yenyu, labhaji lyalyonti lya mubhahwanze, namwe mubhabhombelwe.
But if ye shall abide in me, and my instructions shall abide in you, whatever ye shall be pleased to ask, it will be given to you.
8 Hweli odaada amwamihwe, naje mupapa endondo zinyinji naje bhanafunzi bhane.
In this is the Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and ye will be my disciples.
9 Nkashe odaada wane shangene ane, ane nane embagene amwe, khalaji mulugano lwane.
As my Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide ye in the love of me.
10 Nkashe mubhakhate endajizyo zyane, mubhakhale mulugano lwane nashi shehete endajizyo yza daada wane na khale mulugano lwakwe.
If ye shall keep my commands, ye will abide in the love of me, as I have kept the commands of my Father, and abide in his love.
11 Enjanjile enongwa ezi hulimwe aje olusongwo lwane lubhe muhati yenyu na aje olusongwo lwenyu lubhombeshe abhe golusu.
These things have I spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be complete.
12 Olu lulajizyo lwane aje mganane amwe hu mwemwe nanshi sembagene amwe.
This is my command, that ye love one another, as I have loved you.
13 Nomo omuntu waali nolugano ogosi ashile ou aje afumwe olwizo lwakwe eshauli ya bhanje.
There is no greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14 Amwe muli bha mwetu nkamubhabhombe gala gembalajizya.
Ye are my friends, if ye do all that I command you.
15 Sembakwizyabhaboyi, afuatanaje oboyi samanya kila habhomba ogosi wakwe. Embakwizya amwe bhamwetu, alenganaje embabhozezye enongwa zyonti zyenonvwezye afume hwa Daada.
I no longer call you servants; because a servant knoweth not what his lord doeth; but I have called you my friends; because, whatever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to 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.
It is not ye that chose me, but I that have chosen you; and I have appointed you, that ye also should go and yield fruits, and that your fruits should continue; so that whatever ye may ask of my Father in my name, he may give it you.
17 Enongwa ezi embalajizya aje mganane shila muntu nowamwabho.
These things I command you, that ye should love one another.
18 Nkashe ensi enzabhavitwe, mumanye aje ebhanvitwe nene sheli seele abhavitwe amwe.
And if the world hate you, know ye, that it hated me before you.
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.
And if ye were of the world, the world would love what is of it. But ye are not of the world, for I have chosen you out of the world; for this cause, the world hateth you.
20 Komboshi izu lyana bhabhozezye, 'Oboyi se gosi ashile ogosi wakwe.' Nkashe bhanjenvezye ane, bhaibhaye nvya lyane, handabhakhete iklyalimwe lyape.
Remember the word that I spoke to you, That there is no servant, who is greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; and if they have observed my teaching, they will also observe yours.
21 Bhaibhabhombela amambo ega gonti alengane ni tawa lyane alengane sebhamenye ola wantumile.
But all these things will they do to you, on account of my name, because they know not him that sent me.
22 Nkashe engalisenenzele na bhabhozye handasabhabhombile embibhi, ila esalezi sebhali noudhuru hu mbibhi zyabho.
If I had not come and discoursed with them, sin would not have been to them; but now there is no excuse for their sins.
23 Wanvwitwa ane ahuvitwa yo Daada nantele.
He that hateth me, hateth 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 had not wrought before them works which no other person ever did, sin would not have been to them: but now they have seen, and have hated, both me and my Father;
25 Ene efumila aje izu likamilishe lyalyandihwe mundajizyo: 'Zyabhowanvitwa ane bila li kosa.'
so that in them will be fulfilled the word which is written in their law: They hated me, without a cause.
26 Wazinda ayenzele, wembahufume hulimwe afume hwa Daada, ono yayono, Ompepo we lyoli, wafuma hwa Daada, aihakikisizya.
But when the Comforter shall come, whom I will send to you from my Father, that Spirit of truth who proceedeth from the Father, He will testify of me.
27 Amwe mhakikisizya afuatanaje muuli pandwemo nane afume ahwande.
And do ye also testify; for ye have been with me from the beginning.
