Johani 10
1 “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti munhu asingapindi mudanga ramakwai napamukova, asi anokwira kuti apinde naparutivi, imbavha uye igororo.
Verily, verily, I say to you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheep-fold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 Munhu anopinda napamukova ndiye mufudzi wamakwai.
But he that entereth by the door, is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 Murindi anomuzarurira musuo, uye makwai anonzwa inzwi rake. Anodana makwai ake nezita agoatungamirira kunze.
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4 Kana achinge abudisa makwai ake ose, anofamba ari mberi kwawo, uye makwai ake anomutevera nokuti anoziva inzwi rake.
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 Asi haatongoteveri mutorwa; asi anotomutiza nokuti haazivi inzwi romweni.”
And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 Jesu akataura mufananidzo uyu kwavari, asi havana kunzwisisa zvaakanga achivaudza.
This parable spoke Jesus to them: but they understood not what things they were which he spoke to them.
7 Naizvozvo Jesu akatizve kwavari, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, ndini mukova wamakwai.
Then said Jesus to them again, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 Vose vakanditangira vaiva mbavha namakororo, asi makwai haana kuvanzwa.
All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 Ndini mukova; ani naani anopinda napandiri achaponeswa. Achapinda agobuda, uye achawana mafuro.
I am the door: by me if any man shall enter he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10 Mbavha inongouya kuzoba nokuuraya nokuparadza; ini ndakauya kuti ave noupenyu, uye ave nohwakazara.
The thief cometh not, but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they may have life, and that they may have [it] more abundantly.
11 “Ndini mufudzi akanaka. Mufudzi akanaka anorasira makwai ake upenyu hwake.
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12 Mushandi haasi iye mufudzi nomwene wamakwai. Saka paanoona bere richiuya, anosiya makwai obva atiza. Ipapo bere rinobata boka ramakwai uye roaparadzira.
But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth, and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13 Munhu uyu anotiza nokuti mushandi zvake uye haana hanya namakwai.
The hireling fleeth, because he is a hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 “Ndini mufudzi wamakwai; ndinoziva makwai angu uye makwai angu anondiziva,
I am the good shepherd, and know my [sheep], and am known by mine.
15 Baba sezvavanondiziva uye neni ndichiziva Baba, uye ndinorasira makwai angu upenyu hwangu.
As the Father knoweth me, even so I know the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 Ndina mamwe makwai asati ari edanga rino. Naiwo ndinofanira kuauyisawo. Naiwowo achanzwa inzwi rangu, uye achava boka rimwe nomufudzi mumwe chete.
And other sheep I have which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one shepherd.
17 Chinoita kuti Baba vandide ndechokuti ndinorasira makwai angu upenyu hwangu, uye ndichahutorazve.
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
18 Hakuna munhu angahutora kwandiri, asi ndinohupa pachangu. Ndine simba rokuhurasa uye ndine simba rokuhutorazve. Uyu murayiro ndakaupiwa naBaba.”
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received from my Father.
19 Ipapo vaJudha vakapesanazve nokuda kwamashoko aya.
There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.
20 Vazhinji vavo vakati, “Akabatwa nedhimoni uye anopenga. Seiko muchimuteerera?”
And many of them said, He hath a demon, and is insane; why hear ye him?
21 Asi vamwe vakati, “Aya haangavi mashoko omunhu ane dhimoni. Ko, dhimoni ringasvinudza meso ousingaoni here?”
Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?
22 Ipapo Mutambo woKukumikidzwa kweTemberi paJerusarema wakasvika. Yainge iri nguva yechando,
And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.
23 uye Jesu akanga ari mutemberi achifamba mubiravira raSoromoni.
And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.
24 VaJudha vakanga vakamukomba, vakati, “Ucharamba uchitinetsa kusvikira riniko? Kana uri Kristu, tiudze pachena.”
Then came the Jews around him, and said to him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou art the Christ, tell us plainly.
25 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ndakakuudzai, asi hamutendi. Zvishamiso zvandinoita muzita raBaba vangu zvinondipupurira,
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I did in my Father's name, they testify concerning me.
26 asi hamutendi nokuti hamusi makwai angu.
But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said to you.
27 Makwai angu anonzwa inzwi rangu; ini ndinoaziva, uye anonditevera.
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
29 Baba vangu, ivo vakaapa kwandiri, vakuru kuna vose; hakuna munhu angaabvuta muruoko rwaBaba vangu.
My Father, who gave [them to] me, is greater than all; and none is able to pluck [them] out of my Father's hand.
30 Ini naBaba tiri vamwe.”
I and [my] Father are one.
31 VaJudha vakanongazve matombo kuti vamutake,
Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.
32 asi Jesu akati kwavari, “Ndakakuratidzai mabasa esimba mazhinji kubva kuna Baba. Nderipiko basa ipapa ramunoda kunditakira namabwe?”
Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
33 Vakamupindura vachiti, “Hatisi kukutakira basa ripi zvaro ipapa, asi nokuda kwokumhura Mwari, nokuti iwe, munhuwo zvake, unozviti uri Mwari.”
The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy, and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
34 Jesu akavapindura akati, “Ko, hazvina kunyorwa here muMurayiro wenyu, kuti ‘Ndakati muri vamwari’?
Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
35 Kana akavaidza ‘vamwari,’ avo shoko raMwari rakasvika kwavari, uye Rugwaro harungaputswi,
If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;
36 zvakadii kuno uyo akatsaurwa naBaba saiye wavo chaiye uye wavakatuma panyika? Seiko muchindipomera mhosva yokumhura, zvandati, ‘Ndiri Mwanakomana waMwari’?
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
37 Musanditenda kana ndisina kuita zvinoitwa naBaba vangu.
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38 Asi kana ndichizviita, kunyange dai musinganditendi, tendai mabasa esimba, kuti mugoziva uye mugonzwisisa kuti Baba vari mandiri, uye ini ndiri muna Baba.”
But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know and believe that the Father [is] in me, and I in him.
39 Vakaedzazve kumubata, asi akavapunyuka.
Therefore they sought again to take him; but he escaped from their hand,
40 Ipapo Jesu akayambuka Jorodhani kunzvimbo yakanga ichibhabhatidzira Johani pamazuva okutanga. Akagara ikoko
And went again beyond Jordan, into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.
41 uye vanhu vazhinji vakauya kwaari. Vakati, “Kunyange zvake Johani asina kumboita mabasa esimba, zvose zvakataurwa naJohani pamusoro pomurume uyu zvaiva zvechokwadi.”
And many resorted to him, and said, John performed no miracle; but all things that John spoke of this man were true.
42 Uye panzvimbo iyo, vazhinji vakatenda kuna Jesu.
And many believed on him there.
