Yuhana 17
1 Meng Yesu nbelle ilenge imone, a ghantina iyizi me kitene Kutelle aworo, “Ucif, kube nda; ta Usaunfe gongong-
Jesus spoke these things, raising His eyes to Heaven and saying: “Father, the hour has come! Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son also may glorify You,
2 nafo na una nighe tigo kitene nanan tilai vat, bara anan na alenge na una nige ulai nsa ligang. (aiōnios g166)
just as You gave Him authority over all humanity, so that He will give eternal life to all those whom You have given Him. (aiōnios g166)
3 Ulai un saligaghere ulele: inan yininfi, fere cas Kutelle kidegen, a ame ulenge na una tuu, Yesu Kristi. (aiōnios g166)
Now eternal life is this: that they may know You, the only true God, and the One whom You sent—Jesus Christ. (aiōnios g166)
4 Meng ntafi gongong in yie, na nna kulo katwa ka na unani nsu.
I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work that You have given me to do.
5 Nene, Ucif, tye ngogong umunu litife wang nin nimus ngongon mongo na nwa dimun ninfi a uyie dutu sa ukye.
So now, Father, You glorify me by Your side with the glory that I had along with You before the world existed!
6 Nna durso lissafe kiti nanit alenge na una ni nanyan yii. Inung anit fere, umini na ni inung, inani din dortu ulirufe.
“I have revealed Your name to the men whom You have given me out of the world. They were Yours and You gave them to me, and they have kept Your word.
7 Nene inung yiru vat nimon ile na una nii, inan nuzu kitifere,
They now know that everything You have given to me is from You;
8 uliru fe na una nii, nna ni nani uliru une. Ina seru tining, inani na yinin kidegenere nna dak unuzu kitife, inani na yinin fere na tuyi.
because I have given them the sayings which You have given to me; and they have received and known for sure that I came forth from You, and they have believed that You sent me.
9 Ndi nani nlira, na ndi su uyii nlira ba, ama inung alenge na unayi, inung anit fere.
I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world but for those whom You have given me, because they are yours.
10 Vat nimon ilenge na idi inang, in fere, imongfe inanghari. Meng ta gongon nanya ni ning.
Actually, all my things are Yours and Yours are mine, and I have been glorified in them.
11 Na meng du nanya nyie ba, ama inung anit ane di nanya nyie. Meng din cinu udak kitife. Ucif ulau mino nani nanya lissafe inung alenge na una nii, inan so unit urum, nafo na arik di urume.
Now I am no longer in the world, yet these are in the world, and I am coming to You. “Holy Father, keep them in Your name which You have given to me, so that they may be one just as we are.
12 Kube na nwa di nan ghinu, nwa ceo nani nanya lissa fe alenge na uwa nii; nwa kesse nani, na unit urum na wolu ba, se ame gonon nnanu, bara ulirufe nan se ukulu.
While I was with them in the world I kept them in Your name. I protected those whom You gave me, and not one of them was lost except the son of perdition, so that the Scripture might be fulfilled.
13 Nene ndincinu udak kitife; ama ndin bellu ile imone nanya nyi, bara ayiabo mine nan se ukulu nati mine.
But now I am coming to You, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made full in them.
14 Nna ninani ulirufe, uyi na nari inung, bara na inung anan yieri ba, nafo na meng kunan yiere ba.
“I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
15 Na ndi nlira ukala nani nanya inyieba ama u kesse nani nin nanan naburi asirne.
I am not asking that You take them out of the world, but that You keep them from the malignant one.
16 Na inung anan yiere ba, nafo na meng kunan yieri ba.
They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.
17 Kusu wesse nani nin kidegen, ulirufe kidegenghari.
Sanctify them by Your Truth; Your Word is Truth.
18 Una tuyi nanya nyii, meng uni na tuu nani nanya yie.
Just as You sent me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.
19 Bara inung, meng na wesse litinighe, inung atimine wang nan se uwessu nanya kidegene.
And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth.
20 Na bara alele cas ndin su nlira ba, umunu alenge vat na ima yinnu unuzun liru mine.
“I pray not only for these, but also for those who believe into me through their word;
21 Bara inan so arume vat, nafo nafe Ucif, udi nanya ning, a meng yita nanyafe. Ndin lira inung wang yita nanya bite uyie nan yinna fere na tuyi.
that they all may be one, just as You, Father, are in me and I in You; that in Us they also may be one, so that the world may believe that You sent me.
22 Ngongonghe na una nii, nna nii nani unin, inung wang nan yita urum, nafo na arike di arum-
In fact, the glory that You gave to me I have given to them, so that they may be one just as We are one:
23 Meng nanya mine, a fe nanya ning, inan se ukulu nanyan warume; bara uyie nan yinno fere na tuyi, umini dinin su mine nafo na udinin su ninghe.
I in them and You in me, so that they may be perfected into one; also so that the world may know that You sent me, and have loved them just as You have loved me.
24 Ucif, aleli na una nii wang. Ndin piziru inung yita nan mi kiti kanga na nduku, inan yene ngongong nighe, mongo na uwa nii: bara udi nin su nighe a i ditu sa ucizinun kye in yii.
“Father, those whom You have given to me, I desire that they also may be with me where I am, so that they may observe my glory, which You have given me, because You loved me before the founding of the world.
25 Ucif katwa kacine, na uyii yirufi ba, ama meng yirufi, inung alele yiru fere na tuyi.
Righteous Father! Indeed the world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent me.
26 Nna durso nani lissafe, tutung nba ti nani iyinin bara usuwe na udi mun nan yita nati mine, meng wang nan yita nanya mine.”
Yes, I have made Your name known to them and will make it known, so that the love with which You have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
