Johani 17

1 Jesu wakataura zvinhu izvi, ndokusimudzira meso ake kudenga, akati: Baba, awa rasvika; kudzai Mwanakomana wenyu, kuti Mwanakomana wenyuwo akukudzei;

These things Jesus spoke, and lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee;

2 sezvo makamupa simba pamusoro penyama yese, kuti vese vamakamupa, avape upenyu husingaperi. (aiōnios g166)

as thou hast given him authority over all flesh, that [as to] all that thou hast given to him, he should give them life eternal. (aiōnios g166)

3 Uye uhu upenyu husingaperi, kuti vakuzivei imwi Mwari wega wechokwadi, naJesu Kristu wamakatuma. (aiōnios g166)

And this is the eternal life, that they should know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent. (aiōnios g166)

4 Ini ndakakukudzai panyika; ndapedza basa ramakandipa kuti ndiite;

I have glorified thee on the earth, I have completed the work which thou gavest me that I should do it;

5 uye ikozvino ndikudzei, imwi Baba, kwamuri pachenyu nerukudzo rwandaiva narwo ndinemwi nyika isati yavapo.

and now glorify me, thou Father, along with thyself, with the glory which I had along with thee before the world was.

6 Ndaratidza zita renyu kuvanhu vamakandipa kubva munyika; vakange vari venyu, uye makavapa ini; uye vakachengeta shoko renyu.

I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. They were thine, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy word.

7 Ikozvino voziva kuti zvese-zvese zvamakandipa, zvinobva kwamuri;

Now they have known that all things that thou hast given me are of thee;

8 nokuti ndakapa kwavari mashoko amakandipa; uye ivo vakagamuchira, vakaziva zvirokwazvo kuti ndakabuda kwamuri, uye vakatenda kuti imwi makandituma.

for the words which thou hast given me I have given them, and they have received [them], and have known truly that I came out from thee, and have believed that thou sentest me.

9 Ini ndinokumbirira ivo; handikumbiriri nyika, asi avo vamakandipa, nokuti ndevenyu;

I demand concerning them; I do not demand concerning the world, but concerning those whom thou hast given me, for they are thine,

10 uye zvese zvangu ndezvenyu, nezvenyu ndezvangu; uye ndakakudzwa mavari.

(and all that is mine is thine, and [all] that is thine mine, ) and I am glorified in them.

11 Uye handichisiri munyika, asi ava vari munyika; uye ini ndinouya kwamuri. Baba vatsvene, vachengetei muzita renyu vamakandipa, kuti vave vamwe, sesu.

And I am no longer in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one as we.

12 Pandaiva navo munyika, ini ndaivachengeta muzita renyu; avo vamakandipa, ndikachengetedza, uye hapana umwe wavo wakarasika, kunze kwemwanakomana wekuraswa, kuti rugwaro rwuzadziswe.

When I was with them I kept them in thy name; those thou hast given me I have guarded, and not one of them has perished, but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled.

13 Asi ikozvino ndinouya kwamuri, uye zvinhu izvi ndinotaura munyika, kuti vave nemufaro wangu wakazadziswa mavari.

And now I come to thee. And these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in them.

14 Ini ndakavapa shoko renyu, uye nyika yakavavenga, nokuti havasi venyika, seni ndisiri wenyika.

I have given them thy word, and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

15 Handikumbiri kuti muvabvise panyika, asi kuti muvachengete pane wakaipa.

I do not demand that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them out of evil.

16 Havasi venyika, seni ndisiri wenyika.

They are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

17 Vaitei vatsvene muchokwadi chenyu; shoko renyu ichokwadi.

Sanctify them by the truth: thy word is truth.

18 Sezvamakandituma munyika, neniwo ndavatuma munyika.

As thou hast sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world;

19 Uye ini ndinozviita mutsvene nekuda kwavo, kuti ivowo vaitwe vatsvene muchokwadi.

and I sanctify myself for them, that they also may be sanctified by truth.

20 Uye handikumbiriri ava chete, asi naivo vachatenda kwandiri neshoko ravo;

And I do not demand for these only, but also for those who believe on me through their word;

21 kuti vese vave umwe; semwi, Baba, mandiri, neni mamuri; kuti ivowo vave umwe matiri; kuti nyika itende kuti imwi makandituma.

that they may be all one, as thou, Father, [art] 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 Nekubwinya kwamakandipa, ini ndakavapa, kuti vave umwe, sesu tiri umwe.

And the glory which thou hast given me I have given them, that they may be one, as we are one;

23 Ini mavari, nemwi mandiri, kuti vapedzeredzwe vave umwe; uye kuti nyika izive kuti imwi makandituma, uye makavada, sezvamakandida.

I in them and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one [and] that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and [that] thou hast loved them as thou hast loved me.

24 Baba, ndinoda kuti ivowo vamakandipa, vave neni apo pandiri ini, kuti vaone kubwinya kwangu, kwamakandipa, nokuti makandida mavambo enyika asati avapo.

Father, [as to] those whom thou hast given me, I desire that where I am they also may be with me, that they may behold my glory which thou hast given me, for thou lovedst me before [the] foundation of [the] world.

25 Baba vakarurama, nenyika haina kukuzivai, asi ini ndakakuzivai, neava vakaziva kuti imwi makandituma;

Righteous Father, — and the world has not known thee, but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

26 uye ndakazivisa kwavari zita renyu, uye ndicharizivisa, kuti rudo rwamakandida narwo ruve mavari, neni mavari.

And I have made known to them thy name, and will make [it] known; that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them and I in them.
