< John 17 >

1 After Jesus said those things, he looked [up] toward heaven. Then he prayed, “[My] Father, it is now the time [MTY] [for me to suffer and die]. Honor me [as I do that], in order that I may honor you.
Jisua'n ma chong hih a ti suole chu invân tieng a tanga, “Pa, azora atung zoi. Na nâipasal kôm roiinpuina pêk ta roh. Nâipasal khomin roiinpuina nang a pêk theina rangin.
2 You gave me authority over all people, in order that I might enable all those whom you chose [to come] to me to live eternally. (aiōnios g166)
Mingei murdi chunga rachamneina ama ne pêka, masikin ama khomin ne pêk ngei kôm kumtuong ringna a pêk ngei theina rangin. (aiōnios g166)
3 [The way for people] to live eternally is for them to know that you are the only true God, and to know that [I], Jesus, am the Messiah, the one you have sent. (aiōnios g166)
Male kumtuong ringna ti chu, nangma Pathien diktak vai nang riet, le ni tîrpu, Jisua Khrista riet hih ani. (aiōnios g166)
4 I have honored you here on this earth by completing all the work that you gave me to do.
No roiinpuina pilchunga ki minlanga; sintum mi ni pêk khom ki sin suozoi ani.
5 [My] Father, now honor me when I am with you [again], by causing me to have the greatness I had when I was with you before the world began.”
Pa! atûn no kôm ngêt han roiinpuina ni pêk roh, rammuol insieng mâna no kôma roiinpuina ko dôn ngâi dên ha.
6 “I have revealed [what] you [are like] to the people whom you brought to me from among those who do not belong to you [MTY]. Those [who came to me] belonged to you, and you brought them to me. Now they have obeyed your message.
“Rammuol renga mi ni pêk ngei kôm ni riming ku phuong minzar zoi. Anni ngei hah nata an nia, male nangman kêng anni ngei ha mi ni pêka, no chong an don zoia,
7 Now they know that everything you have given me, [your message and your work], comes from you.
male atûn chu neinun mi ni pêk ngei murdi hih nangma renga ani ti an riet zoi.
8 I gave them the message that you gave me, and they have accepted it. They now know for certain that I came from you. They now believe that you sent me.
Nangman chong mi ni pêk ngei khom ke pêk ngeia an pom zoia; no kôm renga juong ki ni khom an riet minthâr zoi, male mi ni tîr ani ti khom an iem zoi ani.
9 I am praying for them. I am not praying for those [who do not belong to you] [MTY]. Instead, [I am praying] for those whom you have brought to me, because they belong to you.
“Anni rang piela chubaitho ki ni. Rammuol rangin chubaitho mu unga, nangma nata, keima mi ni pêk ngei ta ranga ani.
10 All [the disciples] that I have belong to you, and all those who belong to you also belong to me. They have shown how great I am.
Ko dôn ngei murdi nata an nia; no dôn ngei murdi khom kata an nia, male ko roiinpuina khom anni renga ânlang ngâi ani.
11 I will not be [staying] in the world any longer. I will be coming back to you. They, however, will be [here] in the world [among those who are opposed to you]. [My] Holy Father, protect them from spiritual harm by your power [MTY], the power that you gave me, in order that they may be united as we are united.
Atûn chu no kôm ko hong rang ani zoia; rammuola om khâi noning, aniatachu anni ngei chu rammuola la om an tih. Pa Inthieng! anni ngei hi ni riming sinthotheinân sanmojôk ngei roh, riming mi ni pêk lehan, masikin keima le nangma pumkhat eini anghan anni ngei khom pumkhat anni theina rangin.
12 While I have been with them, I have [completely] protected them by the power [MTY] that you gave me. As a result, only one of them will be eternally separated from you. He is the one who was doomed to be eternally separated from you. [That has happened] to fulfill [what a prophet wrote] in the Scriptures [would happen].
An kôm ko om sûngin chu ni riming sinthotheinân ka sanmojôk ngei ngâi, riming mi ni pêk lehan. Ku rung ngeia, inkhat luo inmang mak ngei, ânmang rang piela ompu tiloiin chu Pathien lekhabua ânziek ahong tung adik theina rang sikin.
13 [Father], now I am about to return to you. I have said these things while I am still [here] in the world in order that my [disciples] may fully experience being joyful, as I have been joyful.
Atûn chu no kôm ko hong rang ani zoia, male rammuola hi neinunngei hih ki misîr pe ngeia ka râisânna an mulung sûngngeia akipdira aom theina rangin.
14 I have given them your message. As a result, those who are opposed to you [MTY] have hated them, because [my disciples] do not belong to those who oppose you [MTY], just like I do not belong to those who oppose you [MTY].
No chongbê ke pêk ngeia, male rammuolin a mumâk ngei zoia, rammuol mi an ni khâiloi sikin, keima rammuol mi ki ni loi anghan.
15 I am asking you, not that you take them out of this world, but instead that you protect them from [Satan], the evil one.
Rammuol renga lâk pai ngei rangin nang zong mu unga, Asaloi Inkhat renga sanmojôk ngei rangin nang ke ngên ani.
16 They do not belong to those who are opposed to you [MTY], just like I also do not belong to them.
Keima rammuol mi ki ni loi anghin anni khom rammuol mi nimak ngei.
17 Set [my disciples] apart so that they may (completely belong to/serve) you, by [enabling them to live in accordance with] what is true. Your message is true.
Anni ngei hih chongtakin minthâr ngei roh; no chong chu chongtak ani.
18 Just like you sent me here into this world, now I surely will be sending them [to other places] in [MTY] the world.
Rammuola mi ni tîr anghan, kei khomin anni ngei hih rammuola ki tîr ngei ani.
19 I dedicate myself to completely belong to you, in order that they also may truly be dedicated {dedicate themselves} completely to you.”
Anni sikin no kôm kên thâra, anni ngei khom no kôm, adiktaka an inthâr theina rangin.
20 “I am praying not only for these [eleven disciples]. I am praying also for those who [will] believe in me as a result of [hearing] their message.
“Hi ngei rang vaiin nang ngên mu unga, an thurchi misîr sika mi a iem ngei ta rang khomin nang ke ngên sa ani.
21 [My] Father, [I want] all of them to be united, just like I am united with you because of my relationship with you, and as you are united with me because of your relationship with me. I also want them to be united with us. [I want that to happen] so that those who do not know you [MTY] may know that you sent me.
An rêngin pumkhat anni theina rangin nang ke ngên ani. Pa! Anni ngei hih ei kôm om rese ngei, nangma ko kôm no oma, keima khom no kôm ko om anghan. Pumkhatin om rese ngei, rammuolin mi ni tîr, ti an iem theina rangin.
22 I have honored my disciples just like you honored me, in order that they may be united, as we are united.
Roiinpuina mi ni pêk dên hah anni khom ke pêk ngei ani, nangma le keima pumkhat ei ni anghan pumkhat an ni theina rangin.
23 I want them to be united just like they are united with me and as you are united with me. May they be completely united, in order that those who do not belong to you [MTY] may know that you sent me and that you have loved them just like you have loved me.
Keima, an kôma, nangma ko kôma omin an nin pumkhat tatakna rangin, hanchu mi ni tîr ani ti hih rammuolin riet an ta, male mi ni lungkham anghan anni ngei khom nu lungkham ngei tiin riet an tih.
24 [My] Father, I want [the disciples] you have brought to me to [some day] be with me [in heaven], where I will be. I want them to see my greatness. I want them to see the greatness you gave me because you loved me. You gave me that greatness before you created the world.
“Pa! anni ngei hih mi ni pêka, male ko omna an om sa theina rangin ku nuom ani, mi ni lungkham sika rammuol insieng mâna mi ni pêk roiinpuina hah an mu theina rangin.
25 [My] righteous Father, although the people who do not belong to you [MTY] do not know what you [are like], I know what you [are like], and my disciples know that you sent me.
Pa Diktak! rammuolin nang riet maka, hannirese keiman chu nang ki riet, male hi ngei khomin mi ni tîr ani tiin an riet.
26 I have revealed to them [what] you [are like], and I will continue to reveal to them [what] you [are like]. I will do that in order that they may love [others] just like you love me, and in order that I may be in them [by my Spirit].”
An kôm nang ki min riet ngeia, min riet ngei bang ki tih, mi ni lungkhamna hah an kôm aom theina rangin, male kei khom an kôm ko om sa theina rangin,” a tia.
