Joan 15
1 Ni naiz aihen eguiazcoa, eta ene Aita da mahastiçaina
“I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
2 Nitan fructu ekarten eztuen chirmendu gucia, kencen du: eta fructu ekarten duen gucia, chahutzen du, fructu guehiago ekar deçançát.
Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
3 Ia çuec chahu çarete nic erran drauçuedan hitzagatic.
You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
4 Çaudete nitan eta ni çuetan: chirmenduac berac fructuric bereganic ecin ekar deçaqueen beçala, baldin aihenean ezpadago: ezeta çuec-ere baldin nitan ezpaçaudete.
Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.
5 Ni naiz aihena, çuec chirmenduac: nor baitago nitan, eta ni hartan, harc ekarten du fructu anhitz: ecen ni gabe deus ecin daidiçue.
I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
6 Baldin norbeit nitan ezpadago, egotzia da campora chirmendua beçala, eta eihartzen da: guero biltzen, eta sura egoizten, eta erratzen.
If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burnt.
7 Baldin baçaudete nitan, eta ene hitzac çuetan badaude, cer-ere nahi baituçue esca çaitezte, eta eguinen çaiçue.
If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
8 Hunetan da glorificatu ene Aita, fructu anhitz daccarraçuen: eta içanen çarete ene discipulu.
“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
9 Ni Aitac maite vkan nauen beçala, nic-ere maite vkan çaituztet çuec: çaudete ene charitatean.
Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
10 Baldin ene manamenduac beguira baditzaçue, egonen çarete ene charitatean: nic-ere neure Aitaren manamenduac beguiratu ditudan beçala, eta egoiten bainaiz haren amorioan.
If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
11 Gauça hauc erran drauzquiçuet çuey, ene alegrançá çuetan dagoençat, eta çuen alegrançá bethé dadinçát.
I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
12 Haur da ene manamendua, batac bercea maite duçuen, nic maite vkan çaituztedan beçala
“This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
13 Haur baino amorio handiagoric nehorc eztu, norbeitec bere arimá bere adisquideacgatic eman deçan.
Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
14 Çuec ene adisquide içanen çarete, baldin eguin badeçaçue cer-ere nic manatzen baitrauçuet
You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
15 Guehiagoric etzaituztet cerbitzari deithuren, ecen cerbitzariac eztaqui haren nabussiac cer eguiten duen: baina çuec deithu çaituztet adisquide, ceren neure Aitaganic ençun dudan gucia, eçagut eraci baitrauçuet.
No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn’t know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
16 Eznauçue çuec ni elegitu, baina nic elegitu çaituztet çuec, eta ordenatu çaituztét, ioan çaiteztençat eta fructu ekar deçaçuen, eta çuen fructua dagoen: cer-ere esca baitzaquizquiote ene Aitari ene icenean, eman dieçaçuençat.
You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
17 Gauça hauc manatzen drauzquiçuet, elkar maite duçuençát.
“I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
18 Baldin munduac gaitzesten baçaituzté, badaquiçue ecen ni çuec baino lehen gaitzetsi vkan nauela.
If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
20 Orhoit çaitezte nic erran drauçuedan hitzaz Ezta cerbitzaria bere nabussia baino handiago: baldin ni persecutatu banauté, çuec-ere persecutaturen çaituzte: baldin ene hitza beguiratu baduté, çuena-ere beguiraturen duté.
Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his lord.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
21 Baina gauça hauc guciac eguinen drauzquiçue ene icenagatic, ceren ezpaituté ni igorri nauena eçagutzen.
But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.
22 Baldin ethorri ezpaninz, eta berey minçatu ezpaninçaye, bekaturic ezluquete: baina orain excusaric eztuté bere bekatuaz.
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
23 Niri gaitz dariztanac, ene Aitari-ere gaitz daritza.
He who hates me, hates my Father also.
24 Baldin hayén artean nehorc bercec eguin eztituen obrác eguin ezpanitu, bekaturic ezluquete: baina orain ikussi dituzté, eta gaitz eritzi draucute niri eta ene Aitari.
If I hadn’t done amongst them the works which no one else did, they wouldn’t have had sin. But now they have seen and also hated both me and my Father.
25 Baina haur da hayén Leguean scribatua dagoen hitza compli dadinçát, dioela, Hoguen gabe gaitz eritzi draudate.
But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
26 Baina nic neure Aitaganic igorriren drauçuedan Consolaçalea dathorrenean, Spiritu eguiazcoa diot cein ene Aitaganic proceditzen baita, harc testificaturen du niçaz.
“When the Counsellor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.
27 Baina çuec-ere testificaturen duçue, ecen hatseandanic enequin çarete.
You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
