John 15
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
“Nga fainpwaye, ac Papa tumuk El mwet yukwiya.
2 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.
El kotala lah nukewa in nga ma tia isus fahko, ac el kofela lah nukewa ma isus fahko tuh in nasnas ac isus fahko pus liki meet ah.
3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
Kowos aknasnasyeyuk tari ke kas su nga fahkak tari nu suwos.
4 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.
Kowos in kupasrme nu sik, ac nga fah kupasr na nu suwos. Sie lah koflana in sifacna isus fahko. El fah isus fahko el fin kupasryang na nu ke inkain fain uh. In lumah sacna, kowos tia ku in orek fahko kowos fin tia mutana in nga.
5 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.
“Nga fain, ac kowos pa lah kac uh. Kutena mwet su mutana in nga, ac nga in el, fah isus fahko puspis, tuh kowos koflana oru kutena ma kowos fin muta sayuk.
6 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 burned.
Kutena mwet su tia muta in nga fah sisila, oana mah paola ma mwet uh ac sifani ac sisang nu in e uh in firiryak.
7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
Kowos fin mutana in nga ac kas luk oanna in kowos, na kowos fah siyuk sin Papa ke kutena ma kowos lungse, ac El fah sot nu suwos.
8 “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
Wolana lun Papa tumuk ac fah kalem ke kowos isus fahko puspis; ac in ouiya se inge kowos fah mwet tumuk lutlut.
9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
Nga lungse kowos oana ke Papa El lungse nga; kowos mutana in lungse luk.
10 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.
Kowos fin akos ma sap luk, kowos ac oanna in lungse luk, oana ke nga akos ma sap lun Papa tumuk ac mutana in lungse lal.
11 I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
“Nga fahk ma inge nu suwos tuh engan luk fah oan in kowos, ac tuh engan lowos fah arulana yohk.
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
Pa inge ma sap luk nu suwos: kowos in lungse sie sin sie, oana ke nga lungse kowos.
13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
Wangin lungse yurin mwet yohk liki lungse se inge: tuh sie mwet fah filiya moul lal ke mwet kawuk lal.
14 You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
Ac kowos mwet kawuk luk, kowos fin oru ma nga sapkin nu suwos.
15 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.
Nga tia sifilpa pangon kowos mwet kulansap, mweyen sie mwet kulansap el tia etu ma mwet kacto lal el oru. A nga pangon kowos mwet kawuk, mweyen nga fahkot ma nukewa ma nga lohng sin Papa tumuk.
16 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.
Kowos tia suleyula; nga sulekowosla ac srisrngikowosi kowos in som ac isus fahko puspis — kain fahko ma ac oan paht. Ke kowos oru ouinge, na Papa El fah asot nu suwos kutena ma su kowos siyuk sel inek.
17 “I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
Ke ma inge, nga sapkin nu suwos tuh kowos in lungse sie sin sie.”
18 If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
“Mwet faclu fin srungakowos, esam na lah elos tuh srungayu meet liki elos srungakowos.
19 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.
Kowos funu ma lun faclu, na mwet faclu lukun lungse kowos oana mwet lalos. Tusruktu kowos tia ma lun faclu mweyen nga sulekowosla liki faclu, pa pwanang mwet faclu srungakowos.
20 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.
Esam ma nga tuh fahk nu suwos: ‘Wangin sie mwet kulansap fulat liki mwet kacto lal.’ Elos tuh akkeokyeyu, na elos ac akkeokye kowos pac. Oayapa oasr mwet su tuh akos mwe luti luk, na ac fah oasr pac mwet akos kowos.
21 But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.
A elos ac oru ma inge nukewa nu suwos mweyen kowos ma luk, tuh elos tia etal su supweyume.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
Nga funu tia tuku ac sramsram nu selos lukun wangin mwatalos ke ma koluk. A ke ouinge uh, wangin sripa elos ku in srukak in tulalosla liki ma koluk lalos.
23 He who hates me, hates my Father also.
Kutena mwet su srungayu el srunga pac Papa tumuk.
24 If I hadn’t done among 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.
Nga oru ma su wangin mwet nu orala meet. Elos funu tia liye ke nga oru ma inge, lukun wangin mwatalos. A elos tuh liye na ke nga oru ma inge inmasrlolos, ac elos srakna srungayu ac oayapa Papa tumuk.
25 But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
Tusruktu ma inge ac nuna sikyak tuh ma simla in Ma Sap lalos in ku in akpwayeiyuk: ‘Elos srungayu ke wangin sripa.’
26 “When the Counselor 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.
“Ngun Mutal el ac tuku — aok, Ngun lun pwaye, su tuku sin Papa me. Nga ac fah supwalot nu yuruwos sin Papa, ac el ac fah orek loh keik.
27 You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
Ac kowos ac oayapa orek loh keik, mweyen kowos nuna wiyu oe ke mutawauk ah me.
