Johani 17
1 Jesu akati ataura izvi, akatarira kudenga akanyengetera achiti: “Baba, nguva yasvika. Kudzai Mwanakomana wenyu, kuti Mwanakomana wenyu akukudzei.
These things Jesus spoke, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said: Father, the hour is come, glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee.
2 Nokuti makamupa simba pamusoro pavanhu vose kuti ape upenyu husingaperi kuna vose vamakamupa. (aiōnios g166)
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all whom thou hast given him. (aiōnios g166)
3 Zvino uhu ndihwo upenyu husingaperi: kuti vakuzivei imi, Mwari oga wechokwadi, naJesu Kristu wamakatuma. (aiōnios g166)
Now this is eternal life: That they may know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (aiōnios g166)
4 Ndakauyisa kukudzwa kwamuri panyika nokuti ndakapedza basa ramakandipa kuti ndiite.
I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5 Zvino, Baba, ndikudzei pamberi penyu nokukudzwa kwandaiva nako ndinemi nyika isati yavambwa.
And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee.
6 “Ndakaratidza zita renyu kuna avo vamakandipa panyika. Vakanga vari venyu; mukavapa kwandiri uye vakateerera shoko renyu.
I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world. Thine they were, and to me thou gavest them; and they have kept thy word.
7 Zvino vanoziva kuti zvinhu zvose zvamakandipa zvinobva kwamuri.
Now they have known, that all things which thou hast given me, are from thee:
8 Nokuti ndakavapa mashoko amakandipa uye vakaagamuchira. Vakaziva zvechokwadi kuti ndakabva kwamuri, uye vakatenda kuti makandituma.
Because the words which thou gavest me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known in very deed that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9 Ndinovanyengeterera. Handisi kunyengeterera nyika, asi avo vamakandipa nokuti ndevenyu.
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me: because they are thine:
10 Zvose zvandinazvo ndezvenyu, uye zvose zvamunazvo ndezvangu. Uye kukudzwa kwakauya kwandiri kubudikidza navo.
And all my things are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
11 Ini handichagarizve munyika, asi ivo vachiri munyika, uye ini ndiri kuuya kwamuri. Baba Vatsvene, vadzivirirei nesimba rezita renyu, zita ramakandipa, kuti vave vamwe sesu tiri vamwe.
And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou has given me; that they may be one, as we also are.
12 Pandainge ndiinavo, ndakavadzivirira uye ndikavachengeta zvakanaka nezita ramakandipa. Hakuna akarasika kunze kwouyo akatongerwa kuparadzwa kuitira kuti Rugwaro ruzadziswe.
While I was with them, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me have I kept; and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled.
13 “Zvino ini ndiri kuuya kwamuri, asi ndiri kutaura zvinhu izvi ndichiri munyika, kuitira kuti vave nomufaro wangu wakazara mukati mavo.
And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy filled in themselves.
14 Ndakavapa shoko renyu uye nyika yakavavenga, nokuti havachisiri venyika sezvandisiri wenyika.
I have given them thy word, and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world; as I also am not of the world.
15 Munyengetero wangu hausi wokuti muvabvise panyika asi kuti muvadzivirire pane akaipa.
I pray not that thou shouldst take them out of the world, but that thou shouldst keep them from evil.
16 Havasi venyika, seni ndisiri wenyika.
They are not of the world, as I also am not of the world.
17 Vaitei vatsvene nechokwadi chenyu; shoko renyu ndiro chokwadi.
Sanctify them in truth. Thy word is truth.
18 Sezvamakandituma munyika, neniwo ndakavatuma munyika.
As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19 Nokuda kwavo ndinozviita mutsvene, kuti naivowo vaitwe vatsvene muzvokwadi.
And for them do I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.
20 “Munyengetero wangu hausi waava voga. Ndinonyengetererawo avo vachazotenda kwandiri kubudikidza nemharidzo yavo,
And not for them only do I pray, but for them also who through their word shall believe in me;
21 kuti vose vave vamwe, Baba, sezvo imi muri mandiri uye ini ndiri mamuri. Naivowo ngavave matiri kuitira kuti nyika igotenda kuti makandituma.
That they all may be one, as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee; that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 Ndakavapa kubwinya kuya kwamakandipa, kuti vave vamwe sesu tiri vamwe:
And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, as we also are one:
23 imi mavari uye imi mandiri. Ngavakwaniswe muhumwe kuti nyika izive kuti makandituma uye makavada kunyange sezvamakandida ini.
I in them, and thou in me; that they may be made perfect in one: and the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast also loved me.
24 “Baba, ndinoda kuti vaya vamakandipa vave neni pandinenge ndiri, uye kuti vaone kubwinya kwangu, iko kubwinya kwamakandipa nokuti makandida nyika isati yasikwa.
Father, I will that where I am, they also whom thou hast given me may be with me; that they may see my glory which thou hast given me, because thou hast loved me before the creation of the world.
25 “Baba vakarurama, kunyange nyika isingakuziviyi, ini ndinokuzivai, uye ivo vanoziva kuti makandituma.
Just Father, the world hath not known thee; but I have known thee: and these have known that thou hast sent me.
26 Ndakakuzivisai kwavari, uye ndicharamba ndichiita kuti vakuzivei kuitira kuti rudo rwamakandida narwo rwuve mavari uye kuti ini pachangu ndive mavari.”
And I have made known thy name to them, and will make it known; that the love wherewith thou hast loved me, may be in them, and I in them.
