UJohane 17
1 UJesu wakhuluma lezizinto, waphakamisela amehlo akhe ezulwini, wathi: Baba, ihola selifikile; dumisa iNdodana yakho, ukuze layo iNdodana yakho ikudumise;
A Yeshu bhakabheleketeje genego, gubhalolile kunani kunnungu, gubhashite, “Atati, malanga gaishe! Munkuye Mwanagwenu, nkupinga na jwalakwe Mwana ankuye.
2 njengoba uyinikile amandla phezu kwayo yonke inyama, ukuze bonke obanike yona, ibanike impilo elaphakade. (aiōnios g166)
Pabha mwashinkumpa Mwanagwenu mashili kubhandu bhowe nkupinga bhowe bhumwampele abhapanganje gumi gwa pitipiti. (aiōnios g166)
3 Lalokhu yimpilo elaphakade, ukuthi bazi wena uNkulunkulu wedwa weqiniso, loJesu Kristu omthumileyo. (aiōnios g166)
Na gumi gwa pitipiti ni aguno, kummanya mmwe nni jikape a Nnungu bha kweli, na kwaamanya a Yeshu Kilishitu bhumwaatumile. (aiōnios g166)
4 Mina ngikudumisile emhlabeni; ngiwuqedile umsebenzi obunginike wona ukuthi ngiwenze;
Nne njikunkuya mmwe pa shilambolyo pano, maliye liengo limwaambele ndende lila.
5 khathesi-ke ngidumise wena, Baba, ngilawe uqobo ngenkazimulo engangilayo kanye lawe ungakabi khona umhlaba.
Atati, nnaino nnguye, kwa ukonjelo gunaakwete punaliji na mmwe shilambolyo shikanabhe panganywa gula.
6 Ngilibonakalisile ibizo lakho ebantwini onginike bona bevela emhlabeni; babengabakho, njalo wanginika bona; balilondolozile ilizwi lakho.
“Njikulitenda lina lyenu limanyishe ku bhandu bha pa shilambolyo bhummbele bhala. Pubhalinginji bhenu, gummbele nne bhabhanganje bhangu, numbe bhakundilenje lilobhe lyenu.
7 Khathesi sebesazi ukuthi konke, loba yikuphi onginike khona, kuvela kuwe;
Nnaino bhamumanyinji kuti yowe immbele, kuikopweshe kunngwenu mmwe.
8 ngoba amazwi onginike wona, ngibanikile wona; bawemukela, njalo bayazi ngeqiniso ukuthi ngiphuma kuwe, bakholiwe ukuthi ungithumile wena.
Nne naapelenje lilobhe limwaammbele lila, nabhalabhonji bhaliposhelenje, bhamumanyinji kuti kweli kungoposhele kunngwenu mmwe, na bhakulupalilenje kuti mmwe ninndumile.”
9 Mina ngiyabakhulekela bona; kangikhulekeli umhlaba, kodwa labo onginike bona, ngoba bangabakho;
“Nne ngunakwaajujilanga bhenebho, ngakushijujila shilambolyo, ikabhe ngunakwaajujilanga bhummbele bhala, pabha bhenu.
10 njalo konke okwami kungokwakho, lokwakho kungokwami; njalo ngidunyisiwe kubo.
Yowe ingwete ni yenu mmwe, na yenu ni yangu na ukonjelo gwangu ubhoneshe ku bhene bhumbele bhala.
11 Njalo kangisekho emhlabeni, kodwa basemhlabeni bona, njalo mina ngiyeza kuwe. Baba oNgcwele, balondoloze ebizweni lakho labo onginike bona, ukuze babe munye, njengathi.
Na nnaino wala ngalonjeya pashilambolyo, ngunakwiya kunngwenu, ikabheje bhanganyabha launo pubhapalinji pashilambolyo. Atati bha ukonjelo! Kwa mashili ga lina lyenu limmbele, shonde mwaapanganje ulinda nkupinga bhabhanganje shindu shimo, malinga shituli uwe.
12 Lapho ngiselabo emhlabeni, mina ngabalondoloza ebizweni lakho; labo onginike bona ngibalindile, njalo kakho kubo olahlekileyo, ngaphandle kwendodana yokulahlwa, ukuze kugcwaliseke umbhalo.
Punaliji pamo na bhanganyabho, nne nashinkwaapanganga ulinda kwa mashili ga lina lyenu limmbele. Nne naabhishilenje muulinda, wala jwakwa nkali jumo jwabhonji apinga kuobha, ikabhe amanyishe kuti mwana jwa obha jula, nkupinga Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gamalile.”
13 Kodwa khathesi ngiza kuwe, njalo lezizinto ngizikhuluma emhlabeni, ukuze babe lentokozo yami igcwalisekile kubo.
“Bhai, nnaino ngunakwiya kunngwenu, gene malobhega njibheleketa nili pa shilambolyope pano, nkupinga bhainonyelanje mmitima jabhonji kwa ligongo lyangu.
14 Mina ngibanikile ilizwi lakho, lomhlaba ubazondile, ngoba bengeyisibo abomhlaba, njengoba mina ngingesuye owomhlaba.
Nne naapelenje lilobhe lyenu na shilambolyo gushaashimilenje, pabha bhanganyabho nngabha bha pa shilambolyo, malinga shini nne nngabha jwa pa shilambolyo.
15 Kangiceli ukuthi ubasuse emhlabeni, kodwa ukuze ubalondoloze kokubi.
Ngaajuga kuti mwaashoyanje pa shilambolyo, ikabhe ngunaajuga mwaembuyanje na jwangali jwa mmbone jula.
16 Kabasibo abomhlaba, njengalokhu mina ngingesuye owomhlaba.
Bhanganyabho nngabha bha pa shilambolyo, malinga shini nne nngabha jwa pa shilambolyo.
17 Bangcwelise eqinisweni lakho; ilizwi lakho liliqiniso.
Mwaatakayanje kwa kweli jila, lilobhe lyenu ni kweli.
18 Njengalokhu wangithuma emhlabeni, lami ngibathumile emhlabeni.
Malinga shinndumile nne ku shilambolyo na nne nnepeyo njikwaatumanga ku shilambolyo,
19 Njalo mina ngizehlukanisela bona, ukuze labo behlukaniswe eqinisweni.
na kwa ligongo lya bhanganyabho ngunakwiishoya namwene nkupinga na bhalabhonji bhaishoyanje na kweli jila.
20 Njalo kangiceleli laba bodwa, kodwa lalabo abazakholwa kimi ngelizwi labo;
“Bhungwaajujilanga nngabha bhanganya pebho, ikabhe bhowe shibhakulupalilanje kwa ligongo lya lilobhe lyabhonji.
21 ukuze bonke babe munye; njengalokhu wena, Baba, ukimi, lami ngikuwe, ukuze labo babe munye kithi; ukuze umhlaba ukholwe ukuthi wena ungithumile.
Ngunaajuga nkupinga bhowe bhabhanganje shindu shimo. Atati! Ngunaajuga bhabhanganje nkati jetu, malinga mmwe Atati shinni nkati jangu, na nne nkati jenu. Ngunaajuga bhabhanganje shindu shimo nkupinga shilambolyo shikulupalile kuti mmwe ni nndumile.
22 Lenkazimulo mina onginike yona, ngibanikile bona, ukuze babe munye, njengathi simunye.
Nne naapelenje ukonjelo malinga gumwaambele gula, nkupinga bhabhanganje shindu shimo malinga shituli uwe.
23 Mina ngikubo, lawe ukimi, ukuze bapheleliswe babe munye, lokuze umhlaba wazi ukuthi wena ungithumile, lokuthi ubathandile, njengalokhu ungithandile.
Nne ndame nkati jabhonji, na mmwe nkati jangu nne, nkupinga bhamalilanje kubha shindu shimope, nkupinga shilambolyo shimanye kuti mmwe ni nndumile, mmwe nnakwaapinganga bhanganyabho malinga shinkumbinga nne.”
24 Baba, labo onginike bona, ngithanda ukuthi lapho mina engikhona, labo babe lami; ukuze babone inkazimulo yami, onginike yona, ngoba wangithanda kungakasekelwa umhlaba.
“Atati! Shingupinga bhummbele bhala bhabhanganje pamo na nne popowe pushindame, nkupinga bhagubhonanje Ukonjelo gwangu gummbele, pabha nshinkumbinga shilambolyo shikanabhe panganywa.
25 Baba olungileyo, ngitsho umhlaba kawukwazanga, kodwa mina ngikwazile, lalaba bayazi ukuthi wena ungithumile;
Atati mmambone! Shilambolyo shikakummanya, ikabhe nne nimmanyi, bhanganyabha bhamumanyinji kuti mmwe ni nndumile.
26 njalo ngibazisile ibizo lakho, njalo ngizabazisa lona; ukuze uthando ongithande ngalo lube kubo, lami kubo.
Njitenda lina lyenu limanyishe ku bhanganyabho, na shimbunde kutenda nneyo, nkupinga kumbinga kwenu, kubhe mmitima jabhonji, na nne namwene mme mmunda jabhonji.”
