Yuhana 14
1 Na iwa yinin ayi mine nana ba. Yinnan nin Kutelle; yinna nin mi wang.
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.
2 Ngan Cifining niti lissosin duku gbardang; ndafo na nani ba, nwa bellin minu, nma du ndi kyele minu kiti.
In my Father’s home there are many dwellings. If it had not been so, I should have told you, for I am going to prepare a place for you.
3 Asa ndo ndi kyele minu kiti, nma kuru nsa nda yiru minu nin litining bara kiti kanga na meng duku, anung wang nan so ku.
And, since I go and prepare a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am;
4 Kiti ka na ndin cinu udue, iyiru libauwe.”
and you know the way to the place where I am going.”
5 Tuma woro Yesu ku, “Cikilari, nati yiru kikangga na udin cinu udue ba, iyizari tima yyinnu libauwe?”
“We do not know where you are going, Master,” said Thomas. “So how can we know the way?”
6 Yesu woroghe, “Menghari libauwe, kidegene nin lai; na umong wasa ada kitin Cifeba, se adofino kiti ning.
Jesus answered, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one ever comes to the Father except through me.
7 Andi iyinni, ima yinnu Ucif ninghe wang; ucizunu nene udu ubun, iyininghe, iyeneghe tutung.”
If you had recognized me, you would have known my Father also; for the future you will recognize him, indeed you have already seen him.”
8 Filibus woro Yesu ku, “Cikilari durso nari Ucife, ulele ma batinu nari.”
“Master, show us the Father,” said Philip, “and we will be satisfied.”
9 Yesu woroghe, “Ndandauna kiti mine kan nani, umini du sa uyinniya Filibus? Vat nlenge na ayenei, ayene ucife; iyizari uma woru, durso nari Ucife?
“Have I been all this time among you,” said Jesus, “and yet you, Philip, have not recognized me? The person who has seen me has seen the Father, how can you say, then, ‘Show us the Father’?
10 Na uynna nworu ndi nanya Ncife, a Ucif nanya nighe ba? Ulire na ndin su na unliti nighari ba; nani, Ucifere na adi nanya nighere dinsu katwa me.
Don’t you believe that I am in union with the Father, and the Father with me? In giving you my teaching I am not speaking on my own authority; but the Father himself, always in union with me, does his own work.
11 Yinna nin mi, nworu ndi nanya Ncife, a Ucife nanya ning; andi na nani ba, yinna ni mi bara nitwa nighe.
Believe me,” he said to them all, “when I say that I am in union with the Father and the Father with me, or else believe me because of the work itself.
12 Kidegenere, ndin belu minu, ulenge na ayinna nin mi, nitwawe na ndin su, ame ma su ni ning wang, ame masu ni didya bara na meng din cinu ucindu kitin Cife.
In truth I tell you, the person who believes in me will themselves do the work that I am doing; and they will do greater work still, because I am going to the Father.
13 Vat nimon ile na itirino nanya lissaning, Meng masu ining bara Ucife nan se ngongong nanya Nsaune.
Whatever you ask, in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be honored in the Son.
14 Asa utirino imonmong nanya lissaning, mma su.
If you ask anything, in my name, I will do it.
15 Andi udi nin su ning uma dortu uduka ning.
If you love me, you will lay my commands to heart,
16 Meng masu Ucife kucukusu, ame ma nimu umong unan bunu bara anan so nan ghinu udu sa ligang. (aiōn g165)
and I will ask the Father, and he will give you another helper, to be with you always – the Spirit of truth. (aiōn g165)
17 Uruhu kidege. Na uyii wasa usereghe ba bara na udin yenjughe ba ana uyirughe ba. Anung, iyirughe, bara a sosin nanghinu tutun ama yitu nanya mine.
The world cannot receive this Spirit, because it does not see him or recognize him, but you recognize him, because he is always with you, and is within you.
18 Na nma sun minu usanminu ba; nma kpillu kiti mine.
I will not leave you bereaved; I will come to you.
19 Nin kubiri bat, uyee ba kuru uyene ba, ama anung ma yenjui. Meng ma yittu nin lai, anung ma ti ulai.
In a little while the world will see me no more, but you will still see me; because I am living, you will be living also.
20 Lilone ima yinnu nworu ndi nanya Ncifning, anung yitta nanya nighe, ameng yitta nanya mine.
At that time you will recognize that I am in union with the Father, and you with me, and I with you.
21 Ulenge na adi nin duka nighe amini din dortu unin, amere ule na adi nin sunighe; ame ulenge na adi nin sunig, Ucif ning mati usume, Meng mati usu me ndurso liti ning kiti me.”
It is they who have my commands and lays them to heart who loves me; and the person who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love them, and will reveal myself to them.”
22 Yahuda (na Iskaroti ba) woro Yesu ku, “Cikilari, iyaghari mati udurso litife kiti bit ana kitin yii ba?”
“What has happened, Master,” said Judas (not Judas Iscariot), “that you are going to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?”
23 Yesu kawa aworoghe, “Andi umong di nin suu nighe ama dortu uliru nighe. Ucif nighe ma yitu nin suu me, arik tina dak kitime ti da so ligowe nanghe.
“Whoever loves me,” Jesus answered, “will lay my message to heart; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24 Ulenge na adi nin suu nighe ba, na adin dortu uliru nighe ba. Ulire na ilanza na unaghari ba un Cifere na anan tuyi.
The person who does not love me will not lay my message to heart; and the message to which you are listening is not my own, but comes from the Father who sent me.
25 Ndin bellu minu ule ulire, a ndutu nanginu.
I have told you all this while still with you,
26 Vat nani, unan bune, Uruhu ulauwe, ulenge na ucife matuu nin lissa nighe, ma dursuzu minu imon vat, imon ile na nna belu minu.
but the helper – the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name – will teach you all things, and will recall to your minds all that I have said to you.
27 Lissosin lishau nsun minu mun, Nna minu lissosin lisheu ning. Na ndin nizu nafo na uyii din nizu ba. Na iwa yinin ayi mine nana ba, a na iwa yinni ilanza fiu ba.
Peace be with you! My own peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled, or dismayed.
28 Ina lanza, nna bellin minu, 'Nma su ucin, nma kpilu kiti mine tutung.' Andi idi nin sunighe, iba su liburi libo bara ndin cinu ucin du kitin Ncif. Bara Ucife karin akatini.
You heard me say that I was going away and would return to you. Had you loved me, you would have been glad that I was going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I.
29 Nene nna bellin minu a idutu sa uti, asa imone nin ta ima yinnu.
And this I have told you now before it happens, so that, when it does happen, you may still believe in me.
30 Na nma su uliru nanghinu gbardang ba, bara ugo nyii ulele din cinu. Na adi nin likara kitene ning ba,
I will not talk with you much more, for the Spirit that is ruling the world is coming. He has nothing in common with me;
31 Uyii nan yinno Meng di nin suu Ncife. Ndin su imon ile na Ucife asa atayi nsu, nafo na ana nei uduke. Fitan, dan ti sun kiti kane.”
but he is coming so that the world may see that I love the Father, and that I do as the Father commanded me. Come, let us be going.
