Yuhana 16
1 Nbelin minu ile imone bara iwa ti minu itiro.
"These things I have spoken to you in order to clear stumbling-blocks out of your path.
2 ima nutuzun minu nanya nilari nlira; kube din cinu kongo na alenge na ima molusu minu ma cissu idi su Kutelle katwa kacine.
You will be excluded from the synagogues; nay more, the time is coming when any one who has murdered one of you will suppose he is offering service to God.
3 Ima su ileli imone bara na isa yinno Ucife sa menku ba.
And they will do these things because they have failed to recognize the Father and to discover who I am.
4 Ndin belu minu ile imone bara asa kube nda na ima se, ima lizinu inin nin woru iyiziari nna belin minu. Na nna belinminu ubellenghe nin cizunue ba bara nwa di ligowe na ghinu.
But I have spoken these things to you in order that when the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them, and may recollect that I told you. I did not, however, tell you all this at first, because I was still with you.
5 Nene nba du kiti nlenge na ana tuyi; vat nani, na umong mine ntirini ba. 'Udin cinu udu weri'?
But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you asks me where I am going.
6 Bara na nna bellin minu ile imone, liburi lisirne nmal kulu nibinayi mine.
But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all this to you.
7 Vat nani, nbeling minu kidegene; uma caunu minu meng nya; bara asa na nya ba, na unan bunue ma dak kitimine ba; ama nwan nya nma tughe kiti mine.
"Yet it is the truth that I am telling you--it is to your advantage that I go away. For unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
8 Asa ada, unan bunue ma kpashulu uye nbeleng kulapi, nbeleng katwa kacine, nin beleng nshara.
And He, when He comes, will convict the world in respect of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement; --
9 Nbeleng kulapi bara na ina yinnin nimi ba,
of sin, because they do not believe in me;
10 nbeleng katwa kacine. Ndin cinu ucin du kitin Cif, na ima kuru iyene tutung ba.
of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you will no longer see me;
11 a ubeleng nshara, ina malu usu ugo nyii ulele ushara.
of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.
12 Ndin nin nimon gbardang na nma belin minu, na ima yinnu inin nene ba.
"I have much more to say to you, but you are unable at present to bear the burden of it.
13 Vat nani, asa ame Uruhu kidegene nda, ama dofunu ninghinu nanya kidegene vat; bara na ama su uliru unlitime ba, ama vat nimon ile na alanza, nanere ama belu, amaa nin pun minu imon ile na idin cinu.
But when He has come--the Spirit of Truth--He will guide you into all the truth. For He will not speak as Himself originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak, and He will make known the future to you.
14 Ama tii gongong, ama yiru imon ning a pun minu inin.
He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine and will make it known to you.
15 Vat ligang nimon ile na Uci dumun. inaghari, unnare nbelle, Uruhu ma yiru imon ning ada pun minu inin.
Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make it known to you.
16 Nin kubiri bat, ima kuru iyene ba; nin kubiri bat tutung, ima kuru iyenei.”
"A little while and you see me no more, and again a little while and you shall see me."
17 Among nono katwa me woro nadon mine, “Uyapin uliruari ulele na aworo nari, 'nin kubiri bat, na ima kuru iyenei ba; aminin woro tutung nin kubiri bat tutung, ima yenei,' tutung, 'Bara nma du kitin Ncifa?'
Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does this mean which He is telling us, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and 'Because I am going to the Father'?"
18 Inin woro, “Iyaghari ilele a belle, 'Kubi cingiling'? Na tiyino iyaghari adin belu ba.”
So they asked one another repeatedly, "What can that 'little while' mean which He speaks of? We do not understand His words."
19 Yesu yene idin shotu itiringhe, ame woro nani, “Idin tiru atimine ubelen nileli imone, nworu 'Nin kubi bat, na ima kuru iyenei ba; kimal kubi bat tutung, ima yenei'?
Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said, "Is this what you are questioning one another about--my saying, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me'?
20 Kidegenere, ndin belu minu, ima su kuculu nin lidurun, ama uye masu liburi libo, anung masu liburi lisirne, ama liburi lisirne mine ma kpinlu ayi aboo.
In most solemn truth I tell you that you will weep aloud and lament, but the world will be glad. You will mourn, but your grief will be turned into gladness.
21 Uwani asa asu liburi lisirne andi adi nin konu liburi kumat bara kubin nlolu me nda; ama asa amara gone, asa a lizino uniu me ba bara ayi aboo nworu imara gono nanya in yii.
A woman, when she is in labour, has sorrow, because her time has come. But when she has given birth to the babe, she no longer remembers the pain, because of her joy at a child being born into the world.
22 Nanere anung wang, idi nin naburi asirne nene, ama meng ma kuru inyene minu tutung, ima ti ayi abo.
So you also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and your gladness no one will take away from you.
23 Liri lole, ima sui umon utirinu ba, kidegenere, Ndin belu minu, asa itirino imonmong kitin Cif, ama ni minu inin nanya lissa ning.
You will put no questions to me then. "In most solemn truth I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name He will give you.
24 Udu da duru nene na isa tirrino imonimon nya lissa ning ba; tirinon, tutung ima seru, liburi libo mine manin kulu.
As yet you have not asked for anything in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.
25 Nsu minu ule ulire nin tinan tigoldo, ama kubi din cinu na nma kuru nsu minu uliru nin tinan tigoldo ba, ama nma na su minu kanang nbeleng Ncife.
"All this I have spoken to you in veiled language. The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.
26 Nloli lire, ima tirini nya lissa ning, a na nworo minu nba ti nlira kiti Ncif bara anung ba;
At that time you will make your requests in my name; and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,
27 ame Ucife di nin sumine, bara na anung di nin su nin, inani nyinna nin mi bara na nna dak unuzu kiti Ncife.
for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
28 Nna dak unuzu kiti Ncif, nmini na dak nanya yii ulele tutung, Nma sunu uyei nma kpilu ndo kiti Ncife.”
I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
29 Nono katwa me woro, “Yene nene udin liru kanang; na udin liru nin tinan tigoldo ba.
"Ah, now you are using plain language," said His disciples, "and are uttering no figure of speech!
30 Nene ti yinno uyiru imon vat, ana udin pizuru umong tirifi umong uliru ba. Bara nani ti yinna una dak unuzu kiti Kutelle.
Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be pressed with questions. Through this we believe that you came from God."
31 Yesu kawa nani aworo, “Nene iyinna?”
"Do you at last believe?" replied Jesus.
32 Yenen kubi din cinu, nanere, nene kumal dak, na ima malu kiti, kogha mine udu kiti me, ima nin sunui Ussanii. Vat nani na nma yitu ussanin, bara Ucif ma yittu nin mi.
"Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
33 Nsu minu ulenge ulire bara nme inan se lissosin lisheu. Nanya nyie idi nin tinanayi, ama sen likara nibinayi, Meng na li likara nyie.”
"I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: I have won the victory over the world."
