John 15
1 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
[Ngah juuba amiisak anggut, eno seng Wah ah paachangte.
2 Every branch in me that doesn’t bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
Ngaaphaak ngaataang heh tiikmuh loong ah kheehaat eha, eno hetiik pan loong ah domjaan ih ah, enoobah singmoot choi nyia domjaan choi ang kano ehan ih dong tiik ah.
3 You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
Sen loong abah ngah ih nyootsoot rum taha jun ih sa choi jen lang etan.
4 Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can’t bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.
Sen loong ah nga damdoh roomtong han, ngah uh sen damdoh roomtong hang. Bangphaak ah hetiiktiik tami tiikka, heruh dowa phaakkah ah doba mi dongtiik ah. Erah likhiik sen uh nga damdoh lah angran bah sen tiik ah tami tiik kan.
5 I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
[Ngah juuba anggut ruh, sen loong ah hephaak. O mina nga damdoh angha nyia ngah hedamdoh angtang nooba, hetiik ah ehan ih dong tiik ah; ngah laje kangbah an ih tiim uh tami ih ko.
6 If a man doesn’t remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
O ang abah uh nga damdoh lah ang raabah, erah hephaak hook toom e ah ngeh ih dook haat ah likhiik ang ah; erah likhiik abah chatjoh ano we nah ba saanjotak ah.
7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
Sen loong ah nga damdoh tonghan bah nyia ngah ih nyootsoot rumhala jengkhaap ah kap anbah, sen ih tiimsuk suh nooklan erah choh ih an.
8 “In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
Seng Wah rangka ah sen tiik senlak jun ih jat ah; emah ang anno juuba sen loong ah nga liphante ang an.
9 Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
Seng Wah ih ngah minchan halang ah likhiik sen uh ngah ih emah minchan rumhala; erah raangtaan ih nga minchan doh tong an.
10 If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
Sen loong ih nga jengdang ah kap an nooba, nga minchan doh jen tong an, ngah ih seng Wah jengdang ah kap angno heh minchan di tonglang ah likhiik ah.
11 I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
[A baat rumhala ah langla, nga tonglang ah likhiik sen uh tenroon ih toomtong an ngeh ih baat rumhala, sen loong ah rapne ih eroon toom ih an.
12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
Nga jengdang ah langla arah: Ngah ih sen minchan rumhala ah likhiik sen uh emamah ih minchanmui an.
13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
Elongthoon minchan ah langla maama joonte raang ih heh roidong jen koha rah.
14 You are my friends if you do whatever I command you.
Eno sen loong ah nga jengkhaap adoh songtong anno juuba nga joonte ih hoon an.
15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn’t know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
Sen loong asuh ngah ih nga laksuh ngeh ih takah li rumra, tiimnge liidi heh laksuh ih bah heh changte ih tiim eha erah tajatka. Erah nang ebah sen suh nga joonte li rumhala, erah thoidi seng Wah jiin nawa tiimjih chaattang loong ah thoontang baat rumhala.
16 You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
Ngah sen ih danje heerah tah angkang; ngah ih senba danje rumhala. Ngah ih sen tiik senlak ehanhan toom ih jaat an ngeh ih danje rumhala, hetiik saarookwet ih tong arah likhiik ah. Erah raangtaan ih nga mendoh seng Wah jiin nawa tiimjaat suh an erah ekot ehan.
17 “I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
Erah raangtaan ih baat rumhala; sen loong ah wasiit ih wasiit minchanmui e an.
18 If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
[Arah mongrep ah ih miksuk ih hanbah, sen ih samthun ih an ngah phang miksuk rum tahang ah.
19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Sen arah mongrep mina angtan bah neng mina likhiik ih minchan theng tahan. Enoothong ngah ih sen loong ah arah hadaang dowa danje rum taha, neng mina tah angkan. Erah thoidi miksuh halan.
20 Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his lord.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.
Ngah ih baat rum taha ah samthun an; ‘dah ah mabah uh heh changte nang ih elong tah angka.’ Neng ih ngah siiwi ih rumtahang bah sen uh siiwi ehan; ngah ih nyootsoot rumtang ah kap rumta bah sen ih nyootsoot han ah uh kap etheng rumta.
21 But they will do all these things to you for my name’s sake, because they don’t know him who sent me.
Eno sen loong nga mina angkan no siiwi ih han ang ah. Erah damdi ngah o ih daapkaat tahang warah neng ih tajat rumka.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.
Neng reenah ngah lakaat dobah nyia laroongwaan kaat dobah neng loong ah rangdah nah tamoong theng rumta; aadowa ebah, neng rangdah ah biin anaan takah chorumka.
23 He who hates me, hates my Father also.
O mina ih ngah miksuk halang seng Wah uh miksuk eha.
24 If I hadn’t done among them the works which no one else did, they wouldn’t have had sin. But now they have seen and also hated both me and my Father.
Neng loong ah rangdah tah angtheng rumta ngah ih o uh lathaak reeka ah neng dung nah lamok reetang bah ah; tiimnge liidi, neng ih nga mamah reetang loong ah tup ih rumha, eno neng ih sek Soowah wanyiinyi miksuk hali tih.
25 But this happened so that the word may be fulfilled which was written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
Enoothong, erah elang jaatjaat etheng angta, neng Hootthe ni banraang thiinta ah amiisak doh ang etheng: ‘Ngah tiim lathih kangdi chiik haat rum halang.’
26 “When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.
[Chosokte ah kaat eha—erah langla Chiiala, Rangte tiit ami ah wuubaat suh seng Wah reenawa raaha. Ngah ih seng Wah reenawa daapkaat hang, eno heh ih nga tiit ah baat han.
27 You will also testify, because you have been with me from the beginning.
Eno, sen loong ah jaakhoh dowa ih nga damdi ang thoidoh sen ih uh nga tiit tumbaat an.
