Yohana 15
1 “Mimi ndimi mzabibu wa kweli na Baba yangu ndiye mkulima.
Ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἄμπελος ἡ ἀληθινή, καὶ ὁ Πατήρ μου ὁ γεωργός ἐστιν.
2 Kila tawi ndani yangu lisilozaa matunda, Baba yangu hulikata, nalo kila tawi lizaalo, hulisafisha ili lipate kuzaa matunda zaidi.
πᾶν κλῆμα ἐν ἐμοὶ μὴ φέρον καρπὸν, αἴρει αὐτό, καὶ πᾶν τὸ καρπὸν φέρον, καθαίρει αὐτὸ ἵνα καρπὸν πλείονα φέρῃ.
3 Ninyi mmekwisha kuwa safi kwa sababu ya lile neno nililonena nanyi.
ἤδη ὑμεῖς καθαροί ἐστε διὰ τὸν λόγον ὃν λελάληκα ὑμῖν·
4 Kaeni ndani yangu, nami nikae ndani yenu. Kama vile tawi lisivyoweza kuzaa matunda lisipokaa ndani ya mzabibu, vivyo hivyo ninyi msipokaa ndani yangu hamwezi kuzaa matunda.
μείνατε ἐν ἐμοί, κἀγὼ ἐν ὑμῖν. καθὼς τὸ κλῆμα οὐ δύναται καρπὸν φέρειν ἀφ’ ἑαυτοῦ ἐὰν μὴ μένῃ ἐν τῇ ἀμπέλῳ, οὕτως οὐδὲ ὑμεῖς ἐὰν μὴ ἐν ἐμοὶ μένητε.
5 “Mimi ni mzabibu, ninyi ni matawi. Akaaye ndani yangu, nami ndani yake, huyo huzaa sana, maana pasipo mimi ninyi hamwezi kufanya jambo lolote.
ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἄμπελος, ὑμεῖς τὰ κλήματα. ὁ μένων ἐν ἐμοὶ κἀγὼ ἐν αὐτῷ, οὗτος φέρει καρπὸν πολύν, ὅτι χωρὶς ἐμοῦ οὐ δύνασθε ποιεῖν οὐδέν.
6 Mtu yeyote asipokaa ndani yangu, hutupwa nje kama tawi na kunyauka. Matawi kama hayo hukusanywa na kutupwa motoni, yakateketea.
ἐὰν μή τις μένῃ ἐν ἐμοί, ἐβλήθη ἔξω ὡς τὸ κλῆμα καὶ ἐξηράνθη, καὶ συνάγουσιν αὐτὰ καὶ εἰς τὸ πῦρ βάλλουσιν, καὶ καίεται.
7 Ninyi mkikaa ndani yangu na maneno yangu yakikaa ndani yenu, ombeni lolote mtakalo, nanyi mtatendewa.
ἐὰν μείνητε ἐν ἐμοὶ καὶ τὰ ῥήματά μου ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ, ὃ ἐὰν θέλητε αἰτήσασθε καὶ γενήσεται ὑμῖν.
8 Kwa hiyo Baba yangu hutukuzwa, kwa vile mzaavyo matunda mengi, nanyi mtakuwa wanafunzi wangu.
ἐν τούτῳ ἐδοξάσθη ὁ Πατήρ μου, ἵνα καρπὸν πολὺν φέρητε καὶ γενήσεσθε ἐμοὶ μαθηταί.
9 “Kama vile Baba alivyonipenda mimi, hivyo ndivyo mimi nilivyowapenda ninyi. Basi kaeni katika pendo langu.
καθὼς ἠγάπησέν με ὁ Πατήρ, κἀγὼ ὑμᾶς ἠγάπησα· μείνατε ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ τῇ ἐμῇ.
10 Mkizishika amri zangu mtakaa katika pendo langu, kama mimi nilivyozishika amri za Baba yangu na kukaa katika pendo lake.
ἐὰν τὰς ἐντολάς μου τηρήσητε, μενεῖτε ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ μου, καθὼς ἐγὼ τοῦ Πατρός μου τὰς ἐντολὰς τετήρηκα καὶ μένω αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ.
11 Nimewaambia mambo haya ili furaha yangu iwe ndani yenu na furaha yenu iwe kamili.
Ταῦτα λελάληκα ὑμῖν ἵνα ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμὴ ἐν ὑμῖν ᾖ καὶ ἡ χαρὰ ὑμῶν πληρωθῇ.
12 Amri yangu ndiyo hii: Mpendane kama mimi nilivyowapenda ninyi.
αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ ἐμὴ, ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους καθὼς ἠγάπησα ὑμᾶς.
13 Hakuna mtu mwenye upendo mkuu kuliko huu, mtu kuutoa uhai wake kwa ajili ya rafiki zake.
μείζονα ταύτης ἀγάπην οὐδεὶς ἔχει, ἵνα τις τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ θῇ ὑπὲρ τῶν φίλων αὐτοῦ.
14 Ninyi ni rafiki zangu mkifanya ninayowaamuru.
ὑμεῖς φίλοι μού ἐστε, ἐὰν ποιῆτε ὃ ἐγὼ ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν.
15 Siwaiti ninyi watumishi tena, kwa sababu watumishi hawajui bwana wao analofanya, bali nimewaita ninyi rafiki, kwa maana nimewajulisha mambo yote niliyoyasikia kutoka kwa Baba yangu.
οὐκέτι λέγω ὑμᾶς δούλους, ὅτι ὁ δοῦλος οὐκ οἶδεν τί ποιεῖ αὐτοῦ ὁ κύριος· ὑμᾶς δὲ εἴρηκα φίλους, ὅτι πάντα ἃ ἤκουσα παρὰ τοῦ Πατρός μου ἐγνώρισα ὑμῖν.
16 Si ninyi mlionichagua, bali mimi ndiye niliyewachagua ninyi na kuwaweka mwende mkazae matunda, na matunda yenu yapate kudumu. Ili nalo lolote mtakalomwomba Baba katika Jina langu, awape ninyi.
οὐχ ὑμεῖς με ἐξελέξασθε, ἀλλ’ ἐγὼ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔθηκα ὑμᾶς ἵνα ὑμεῖς ὑπάγητε καὶ καρπὸν φέρητε καὶ ὁ καρπὸς ὑμῶν μένῃ, ἵνα ὅ τι ἂν αἰτήσητε τὸν Πατέρα ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί μου δῷ ὑμῖν.
17 Amri yangu ndiyo hii: Mpendane.
ταῦτα ἐντέλλομαι ὑμῖν, ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους.
18 “Kama ulimwengu ukiwachukia ninyi, kumbukeni kwamba ulinichukia mimi kabla yenu.
Εἰ ὁ κόσμος ὑμᾶς μισεῖ, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐμὲ πρῶτον ὑμῶν μεμίσηκεν.
19 Kama mngekuwa wa ulimwengu, ulimwengu ungeliwapenda kama vile unavyowapenda walio wake. Kwa sababu ninyi si wa ulimwengu, lakini mimi nimewachagua kutoka ulimwengu, hii ndiyo sababu ulimwengu unawachukia.
εἰ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου ἦτε, ὁ κόσμος ἂν τὸ ἴδιον ἐφίλει· ὅτι δὲ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου οὐκ ἐστέ, ἀλλ’ ἐγὼ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου, διὰ τοῦτο μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος.
20 Kumbukeni lile neno nililowaambia, ‘Hakuna mtumishi aliye mkuu kuliko bwana wake.’ Kama wamenitesa mimi, nanyi pia watawatesa. Kama wamelishika neno langu, watalishika na neno lenu pia.
μνημονεύετε τοῦ λόγου οὗ ἐγὼ εἶπον ὑμῖν Οὐκ ἔστιν δοῦλος μείζων τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ· εἰ ἐμὲ ἐδίωξαν, καὶ ὑμᾶς διώξουσιν· εἰ τὸν λόγον μου ἐτήρησαν, καὶ τὸν ὑμέτερον τηρήσουσιν.
21 Watawatendea ninyi haya yote kwa ajili ya Jina langu, kwa sababu hawamjui yeye aliyenituma.
ἀλλὰ ταῦτα πάντα ποιήσουσιν εἰς ὑμᾶς διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδασιν τὸν πέμψαντά με.
22 Kama sikuja na kusema nao wasingalikuwa na hatia ya dhambi. Lakini sasa hawana udhuru kwa ajili ya dhambi zao.
εἰ μὴ ἦλθον καὶ ἐλάλησα αὐτοῖς, ἁμαρτίαν οὐκ εἴχοσαν· νῦν δὲ πρόφασιν οὐκ ἔχουσιν περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν.
23 Yeyote anayenichukia mimi, anamchukia pia na Baba yangu.
ὁ ἐμὲ μισῶν καὶ τὸν Πατέρα μου μισεῖ.
24 Kama sikuwa nimefanya miujiza ambayo haijapata kufanywa na mtu mwingine yeyote, wasingalikuwa na hatia ya dhambi. Lakini sasa wameiona miujiza hii na bado wakatuchukia mimi na Baba yangu.
εἰ τὰ ἔργα μὴ ἐποίησα ἐν αὐτοῖς ἃ οὐδεὶς ἄλλος ἐποίησεν, ἁμαρτίαν οὐκ εἴχοσαν· νῦν δὲ καὶ ἑωράκασιν καὶ μεμισήκασιν καὶ ἐμὲ καὶ τὸν Πατέρα μου.
25 Lakini hii ni kutimiza lile neno lililoandikwa kwenye Sheria kwamba, ‘Walinichukia pasipo sababu.’
ἀλλ’ ἵνα πληρωθῇ ὁ λόγος ὁ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτῶν γεγραμμένος ὅτι Ἐμίσησάν με δωρεάν.
26 “Lakini atakapokuja huyo Msaidizi nitakayemtuma kwenu kutoka kwa Baba, yaani, huyo Roho wa kweli atokaye kwa Baba, yeye atanishuhudia mimi.
Ὅταν ἔλθῃ ὁ Παράκλητος ὃν ἐγὼ πέμψω ὑμῖν παρὰ τοῦ Πατρός, τὸ Πνεῦμα τῆς ἀληθείας ὃ παρὰ τοῦ Πατρὸς ἐκπορεύεται, ἐκεῖνος μαρτυρήσει περὶ ἐμοῦ·
27 Ninyi nanyi itawapasa kushuhudia kwa sababu mmekuwa pamoja nami tangu mwanzo.
καὶ ὑμεῖς δὲ μαρτυρεῖτε, ὅτι ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς μετ’ ἐμοῦ ἐστε.
