Yohane 17
1 Yesu kaa saa nsɛm yi wieeɛ no, ɔhwɛɛ ɔsoro bɔɔ mpaeɛ sɛ, “Agya, ɛberɛ no aduru. Hyɛ wo Ba no animuonyam, na Ɔba no nso nhyɛ wo animuonyam.
These words spoke Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
2 Womaa no nnipa nyinaa so tumi sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔbɛma wɔn a wode wɔn maa no no nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ. (aiōnios g166)
As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. (aiōnios g166)
3 Na ɛkwan a wɔnam so bɛnya nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ ne sɛ, wɔbɛhunu Onyankopɔn korɔ nokwafoɔ no, ne Yesu Kristo a wosomaa no baa asase so no! (aiōnios g166)
And this is life eternal, that they may know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. (aiōnios g166)
4 Medaa wʼanimuonyam adi kyerɛeɛ wɔ asase so na mewiee adwuma a wode hyɛɛ me nsa no yɛ.
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
5 Na afei, Agya, fa animuonyam a mewɔ wɔ wʼanim ansa na worebɔ ewiase no hyɛ me wɔ wʼanim ha.
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thy own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
6 “Mama nnipa a na anka wɔte ewiase a wode wɔn hyɛɛ me nsa no ahunu wo. Na wɔyɛ wo dea na wode wɔn maa me. Wɔatie wʼasɛm.
I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest to me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them to me; and they have kept thy word.
7 Afei, wɔahunu sɛ biribiara a wode maa me no firi wo nkyɛn.
Now they have known that all things whatever thou hast given me are from thee.
8 Mekaa asɛm a woka kyerɛɛ me sɛ menka nkyerɛ wɔn no kyerɛɛ wɔn na wɔtieeɛ. Wɔnim sɛ ɛyɛ nokorɛ sɛ mefiri wo nkyɛn na mebaeɛ. Na wɔgye di sɛ wo na wosomaa me.
For I have given to them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9 Mebɔ mpaeɛ ma wɔn. Memmɔ mpaeɛ mma wɔn a wɔnnye wʼasɛm nni, na mmom, nnipa a wode wɔn maa me no na mebɔ mpaeɛ ma wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔyɛ wo dea.
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given to me; for they are thine.
10 Biribiara a mewɔ no yɛ wo dea na biribiara a wowɔ no nso yɛ me dea. Ɛnam yeinom so ama manya animuonyam.
And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
11 Na afei, merefiri ewiase, na magya wɔn wɔ akyire aba wo nkyɛn. Agya kronkron, wɔn a wode wɔn maa me no, fa wo din a tumi wɔ mu no bɔ wɔn ho ban na wɔayɛ baako sɛdeɛ wo ne me yɛ baako no.
And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thy own name those whom thou hast given to me, that they may be one, as we are.
12 Ɛberɛ a me ne wɔn wɔ hɔ no, mede tumi a wode maa me no hwɛɛ wɔn so. Mebɔɔ wɔn ho ban, na wɔn mu biara annyera, gye onipa a ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyera no nko ara, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, Atwerɛsɛm no bɛba mu.
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest to me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
13 “Afei mereba wo nkyɛn. Maka saa nsɛm yi nyinaa ɛberɛ a meda so wɔ ewiase yi sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, mʼanigyeɛ bɛhyɛ wɔn ma.
And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14 Mekaa wʼasɛm kyerɛɛ wɔn na ewiasefoɔ tanee wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔmfiri ewiase sɛdeɛ me nso memfiri ewiase no.
I have given to them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
15 Memmisa wo sɛ yi wɔn firi ewiase, na mmom, mesrɛ sɛ, bɔ wɔn ho ban firi ɔbonsam nsam.
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
16 Sɛdeɛ memfiri ewiase no, saa ara nso na wɔmfiri ewiase.
They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 Fa wo nsɛm a ɛyɛ nokorɛ no kyerɛkyerɛ wɔn na ɛnte wɔn ho, na ɛnyɛ wɔn kronkron.
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
18 Sɛdeɛ wosomaa me baa ewiase no, saa ara na me nso meresoma wɔn akɔ ewiase.
As thou hast sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world.
19 Wɔn enti, mede me ho ma wo sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔn nso de wɔn ho nyinaa bɛma wo.
And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified through the truth.
20 “Memmɔ mpaeɛ mma wɔn nko. Mebɔ mpaeɛ ma wɔn a wɔnam asuafoɔ asɛm a wɔbɛka no so agye adi no nso.
Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also who shall believe on me through their word;
21 Mebɔ mpaeɛ sɛ wɔn nyinaa bɛyɛ baako. Agya, sɛdeɛ wowɔ me mu na me nso mewɔ wo mu no, saa ara nso na ma wɔntena yɛn mu. Ma wɔn nyinaa nyɛ baako sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ewiase bɛgye adi sɛ, wo na wosomaa me.
That they all may be 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 Mede animuonyam a wode hyɛɛ me a ɛmaa me ne wo yɛɛ baako no ahyɛ wɔn sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔn nso, wɔbɛyɛ baako sɛdeɛ yɛn nso yɛyɛ baako no.
And the glory which thou gavest to me I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
23 Mewɔ wɔn mu na wo nso wowɔ me mu, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, wɔn nyinaa bɛyɛ baako na ewiase ahunu sɛ, wo na wosomaa me na wodɔ wɔn sɛdeɛ wodɔ me no
I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24 “Agya, mepɛ sɛ wɔn a wode wɔn maa me no bɛka me ho wɔ faako a mewɔ no, na wɔahunu mʼanimuonyam, animuonyam a wode maa me no, ɛfiri sɛ, wodɔ me ansa na wobɔɔ ewiase.
Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given to me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given to me: for thou didst love me before the foundation of the world.
25 “Agya kronkron, ewiase nnim wo, nanso me deɛ, menim wo; na asuafoɔ yi nim sɛ wo na wosomaa me.
O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.
26 Mama wɔahunu sɛdeɛ wo te na mɛkɔ so ayɛ saa daa, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, ɔdɔ a wodɔ me no bɛtena wɔn nso mu na me nso, matena wɔn nso mu bi.”
And I have declared to them thy name, and will declare it: that the love which thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
