John 14
1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
Yesu yi edzi gblɔ na nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Migana vɔvɔ̃ naɖo mi, eye miaƒe dzi naʋuʋu nyanyanya o. Mixɔ Mawu dzi se, eye mixɔ nye hã dzinye se.
2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
Fofonye ƒe aƒe me la, xɔ geɖewo li, ne ɖe mele nenema o la, ne megblɔe na mi. Meyina afi ma, be madzra teƒe ɖo ɖi na mi.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.
Ne meyi ɖadzra teƒe ɖo ɖi na mi la, matrɔ ava akplɔ mi be, mianɔ gbɔnye ale be afi si mele la, miawo hã mianɔ afi ma.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Mienya afi si meyina la xoxo, eye mienya mɔ la hã.”
5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Toma gblɔ nɛ be, “Gbeɖe, Aƒetɔ, mienya afi si nèyina o, aleke wɔ miate ŋu anya mɔ la?”
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Nyee nye Mɔ la, Nyateƒe la kple Agbe la. Ame aɖeke mate ŋu ayi Fofo la gbɔ o, negbe to dzinye ko.
7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
Ne ɖe mienya ame si ƒomevi menye la, anye ne mienya ame si ƒomevi Fofonye hã nye. Tso azɔ dzi la, mienya ame si Fofonye nye, eye miekpɔe hã!”
8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
Filipo gblɔ be, “Aƒetɔ, fia Fofo la mí ekema míaƒe dzi adze eme.”
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Filipo, ke va se ɖe fifi hã la, mènya ame si ƒomevi menye o. Ke esi meli kpli mi ŋkeke siawo katã hã mienyam kpɔ oa? Ame si kpɔm la, Fofo lae nye ema wòkpɔ. Ke nu ka ta miegale didim be, ‘Mafia Fofo la mi ɖo?’
10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
Ɖe miexɔe se be mele Fofo la me, eye Fofo la hã le menye oa? Nya siwo katã megblɔna la menye nye ŋutɔ nye nyawoe o, ke boŋ Fofonye si le menye la ƒe nyawoe. Fofo la wɔa eƒe dɔwo to dzinye.
11 Believe me that I [am] in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.
Mixɔe se ko be mele Fofo la me, eye Fofo la hã le menye. Ne miate ŋu axɔ esia dzi se o la, ekema mixɔ dzinye se le nukunu geɖe siwo mewɔ miekpɔ la ta.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
Mele egblɔm na mi le nyateƒe me be ame si xɔ dzinye se la awɔ dɔ siwo katã mele wɔwɔm la, eye awɔ dɔ gãwo wu esiwo mewɔ, elabena meyina ɖe Fofo la gbɔ.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Mawɔ nu sia nu si miabia le nye ŋkɔ dzi la na mi ale be Vi la nakɔ Fofo la ŋuti.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do [it.]
Ne miebia nane to nye ŋkɔ dzi ko la, mawɔe na mi.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
“Ne mielɔ̃am la, miawɔ nye sewo dzi.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; (aiōn g165)
Mabia Fofo la, wòaɖo nyaxɔɖeakɔla bubu ɖe mi, ame si nye nyateƒe ƒe Gbɔgbɔ, be wòanɔ anyi kpli mi yi ɖe mavɔ me. (aiōn g165)
17 [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Xexea me mate ŋu axɔ nyateƒe ƒe Gbɔgbɔ la o, elabena mekpɔnɛ alo dzea sii o. Ke miawo la, mienyae, elabena ele mia me, eye wòanɔ anyi kpli mi.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
Nye la, nyemagblẽ mi ɖi abe tsyɔ̃eviwo ene o, matrɔ ava mia gbɔ.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
Le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe la, xexea me tɔwo magakpɔm o, ke miawo ya, miakpɔm. Esi mele agbe ta la, miawo hã mianɔ agbe.
20 At that day ye shall know that I [am] in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
Gbe ma gbe la, mianya be mele Fofo la me, eye miawo miele menye, eye nye hã mele mia me.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Ame si wɔna ɖe nye nyawo dzi la, eyae lɔ̃am. Ame si lɔ̃am la, Fofonye hã alɔ̃e, nye hã malɔ̃e, eye maɖe ɖokuinye afiae.”
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
Yuda (menye Yuda Iskariɔt o, ke boŋ nusrɔ̃la bubu), biae be, “Aƒetɔ, nu ka ta wònye mí nusrɔ̃lawo ko nèle ɖokuiwo ɖe ge afia, ke menye xexea me katã o?”
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ame si lɔ̃m la awɔ ɖe nye nufiafia dzi. Fofonye hã alɔ̃e, eye nye kple Fofonye míava egbɔ, eye míawɔ nɔƒe ɖe egbɔ.
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me.
Ame si melɔ̃m o la mawɔ ɖe nye nufiafia dzi o. Nya siwo miese la, menye nye ŋutɔ tɔ o; Fofonye, ame si dɔm la ƒe nyawoe.
25 These things have I spoken unto you, being [yet] present with you.
“Mele nya siawo gblɔm na mi fifia esi megale mia gbɔ.
26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Ke Nyaxɔɖeakɔla, Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe si Fofo la adɔ ɖo ɖa le nye ŋkɔ me la afia nu geɖewo mi, eye wòaɖo ŋku nu siwo katã mefia mi la dzi na mi.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Mele ŋutifafa gblẽm ɖi na mi. Nye ŋutifafa metsɔ na mi. Menye xexea me tɔ ƒomevi o. Migana miaƒe dzi naʋuʋu nyanyanya o, eye migavɔ̃ o.
28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come [again] unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
“Miese megblɔ be, ‘Madzo eye magatrɔ agbɔ va mia gbɔ.’ Ne mielɔ̃m la, dzi adzɔ mi be mele dzodzom yina ɖe Fofo la gbɔ, elabena Fofo la lolo wum.
29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.
Megblɔ nya siawo na mi hafi woava dzɔ, ale be ne wova dzɔ la, ne miaxɔ wo dzi ase.
30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.
Nyemagaƒo nu na mi fũu o, elabena xexe sia me dziɖula le mɔ dzi gbɔna. Mekpɔ ŋusẽ ɖe dzinye o,
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
gake ele be xexea me nanyae be melɔ̃ Fofo la eye be mewɔa nu si tututu Fofo la ɖo nam be mawɔ. “Azɔ, miva mídzo.
