Yesu Atonthoza Ophunzira Ake

14 “Mtima wanu usavutike. Khulupirirani Mulungu; khulupirirani Inenso. ² Mʼnyumba mwa Atate anga muli zipinda zambiri. Kukanakhala kuti mulibemo ndikanakuwuzani. Ine ndikupita kumeneko kukakukonzerani malo. ³ Ndipo ndikapita kukakukonzerani malo, ndidzabweranso kudzakutengani, kuti kumene kuli Ineko, inunso mukakhale komweko. ⁴ Inu mukudziwa njira ya kumene Ine ndikupita.”

Yesu Njira ya kwa Atate

⁵ Tomasi anati kwa Iye, “Ambuye ife sitikudziwa kumene Inu mukupita, nanga tingadziwe bwanji njirayo?”

⁶ Yesu anayankha kuti, “Ine ndine njira, choonadi ndi moyo. Palibe munthu angafike kwa Atate popanda kudzera mwa Ine. ⁷ Mukanandidziwadi Ine, mukanadziwanso Atate anga. Kuyambira tsopano, mukuwadziwa ndipo mwawaona.”

⁸ Filipo anati, “Ambuye, tionetseni Atatewo ndipo ife tikhutitsidwa.”

⁹ Yesu anayankha kuti, “Kodi iwe Filipo, ndakhala pakati panu nthawi yonseyi ndipo iwe sukundidziwabe? Aliyense amene waona Ine, waonanso Atate. Tsono ukunena bwanji kuti, ‘Tionetseni Atate?’ ¹⁰ Kodi sukukhulupirira kuti Ine ndili mwa Atate, ndipo Atate ali mwa Ine? Mawu amene Ine ndiyankhula kwa inu si mawu anga okha koma ndi mawu Atate wokhala mwa Ine, amene akugwira ntchito yake. ¹¹ Khulupirirani Ine pamene ndi kuti Ine ndili mwa Atate ndipo Atate ali mwa Ine. Koma ngati si chomwecho, khulupiriranitu Ine chifukwa cha ntchito zanga zodabwitsa. ¹² Zoonadi, Ine ndikukuwuzani kuti aliyense amene akhulupirira Ine adzachita zimene Ine ndakhala ndikuchita. Iye adzachita ngakhale zinthu zazikulu kuposa zimenezi, chifukwa ndikupita kwa Atate. ¹³ Ndipo Ine ndidzachita chilichonse chimene inu mudzapempha mʼdzina langa kuti Atate alemekezedwe mwa Mwana. ¹⁴ Ngati mudzapempha kanthu kalikonse mʼdzina langa, Ine ndidzachita.

Lonjezo la Mzimu Woyera

¹⁵ “Ngati mundikonda Ine, sungani malamulo anga. ¹⁶ Ine ndidzapempha Atate, ndipo adzakupatsani Nkhoswe ina kuti izikhala nanu nthawi zonse. ¹⁷ Nkhosweyo ndiye Mzimu wachoonadi. Dziko lapansi silingalandire Nkhosweyi chifukwa samuona kapena kumudziwa. Koma inu mumamudziwa pakuti amakhala nanu ndipo adzakhala mwa inu. ¹⁸ Ine sindikusiyani nokha kuti mukhale ana amasiye. Ine ndidzabweranso kwa inu. ¹⁹ Patsala nthawi yochepa dziko lapansi silidzandionanso koma inu mudzandiona. Popeza kuti Ine ndili ndi moyo, inunso mudzakhala ndi moyo. ²⁰ Tsiku limenelo inu mudzazindikira kuti Ine ndili mwa Atate, ndipo inu muli mwa Ine, ndipo Ine ndili mwa inu. ²¹ Iye amene amadziwa malamulo anga ndi kuwasunga ndiye amene amandikonda. Wokonda Ine adzakondedwa ndi Atate wanga ndipo Inenso ndidzamukonda ndikudzionetsa ndekha kwa iye.”

²² Kenaka Yudasi (osati Yudasi Isikarioti) anati, “Koma Ambuye, nʼchifukwa chiyani mukufuna kudzionetsa nokha kwa ife, osati ku dziko lapansi?”

²³ Yesu anamuyankha kuti, “Ngati wina aliyense andikonda Ine, adzasunga mawu anga. Atate wanga adzamukonda, ndipo Ife tidzabwera ndi kukhala naye. ²⁴ Iye amene sandikonda Ine sasunga mawu anga. Mawu awa amene mukumva si anga ndi a Atate amene anandituma Ine.

²⁵ “Ndayankhula zonsezi ndikanali nanu. ²⁶ Koma Nkhosweyo, Mzimu Woyera, amene Atate adzamutumiza mʼdzina langa adzakuphunzitsani zinthu zonse, ndipo adzakukumbutsani zonse zimene ndinakuwuzani. ²⁷ Ine ndikukusiyirani mtendere. Ndikukupatsani mtendere wanga. Ine sindikukupatsani monga dziko lapansi limaperekera. Mtima wanu usavutike ndipo musachite mantha.

²⁸ “Inu munamva Ine ndikunena kuti, ‘Ine ndikupita ndipo ndidzabweranso kwa inu.’ Mukanandikonda, mukanasangalala kuti Ine ndikupita kwa Atate, pakuti Atate ndi wamkulu kuposa Ine. ²⁹ Ine ndakuwuzani tsopano zisanachitike, kuti zikadzachitika mudzakhulupirire. ³⁰ Ine sindiyankhulanso nanu zambiri nthawi yayitali popeza wolamulira dziko lapansi akubwera. Iye alibe mphamvu pa Ine, ³¹ koma kuti dziko lapansi lizindikire kuti Ine ndimakonda Atate ndi kuti ndimachita zokhazokha zimene Atate wandilamulira Ine.

“Nyamukani; tizipita.”

Mpesa ndi Nthambi

15 “Ine ndine mpesa weniweni, ndipo Atate anga ndiye mwini munda. ² Iye amadula nthambi iliyonse ya mwa Ine imene sibala chipatso, koma nthambi iliyonse imene imabala chipatso amayisadzira bwino kuti ibale zipatso zambiri. ³ Inu ndinu oyera kale chifukwa cha mawu amene ndayankhula inu. ⁴ Khalani mwa Ine, monga Ine ndili mwa inu. Palibe nthambi imene ingabereke chipatso pa yokha ngati sinalumikizike ku mpesa. Chomwechonso inu simungathe kubereka chipatso pokhapokha mutakhala mwa Ine.

⁵ “Ine ndine mpesa; inu ndinu nthambi zake. Ngati munthu akhala mwa Ine ndi Ine mwa iye, adzabereka zipatso zambiri; popanda Ine simungathe kuchita kanthu. ⁶ Ngati wina aliyense sakhala mwa Ine, iyeyo ali ngati nthambi imene yatayidwa ndi kufota. Nthambi zotero zimatoledwa, kuponyedwa pa moto ndi kupsa. ⁷ Ngati inu mukhala mwa Ine ndipo mawu anga akhala mwa inu, pemphani chilichonse chimene mukufuna ndipo mudzapatsidwa. ⁸ Atate anga amalemekezedwa mukamabereka zipatso zochuluka, ndipo potero mudzionetsa kuti ndinu ophunzira anga.

⁹ “Monga momwe Atate amandikondera Ine, Inenso ndakukondani. Tsopano khalani mʼchikondi changa. ¹⁰ Ngati mumvera malamulo anga, mudzakhala mʼchikondi changa, monga Ine ndimamvera malamulo a Atate anga, ndipo ndimakhala mʼchikondi chawo. ¹¹ Ine ndakuwuzani izi kuti chimwemwe changa chikhale mwa Inu, kuti chimwemwe chanu chikhale chokwanira. ¹² Lamulo langa ndi ili: ‘Kondanani wina ndi mnzake monga Ine ndakonda inu.’ ¹³ Palibe munthu ali ndi chikondi choposa ichi, choti munthu nʼkutaya moyo wake chifukwa cha abwenzi ake. ¹⁴ Inu ndinu abwenzi anga ngati muchita zimene Ine ndikulamulani. ¹⁵ Ine sindikutchulaninso antchito, chifukwa wantchito sadziwa zimene bwana wake akuchita. Mʼmalo mwake Ine ndakutchani abwenzi pakuti zilizonse zimene ndinaphunzira kwa Atate, Ine ndakudziwitsani. ¹⁶ Inu simunandisankhe Ine, koma Ine ndinakusankhani kuti mupite ndi kukabereka zipatso, zipatso zake za nthawi yayitali. Choncho Atate adzakupatsani chilichonse chimene mudzapempha mʼdzina langa. ¹⁷ Lamulo langa ndi ili: ‘Muzikondana.’

Dziko Lapansi Limada Ophunzira a Yesu

¹⁸ “Ngati dziko lapansi lidana nanu, dziwani kuti linayamba kudana ndi Ine. ¹⁹ Inu mukanakhala anthu a dziko lapansi, dziko lapansi likanakukondani ngati anthu ake omwe. Koma mmene zilili, inu si anthu a dziko lapansi. Ine ndakusankhani kuchokera mʼdziko lapansi, nʼchifukwa chake dziko lapansi limakudani. ²⁰ Kumbukirani mawu amene ndinayankhula nanu akuti, ‘Palibe wantchito amene amaposa bwana wake.’ Ngati anandizunza Ine, iwo adzakuzunzaninso inu. Ngati anamvera chiphunzitso changa, iwo adzamvera chanunso. ²¹ Iwo adzakuchitani zimenezi chifukwa cha dzina langa, popeza sakudziwa amene anandituma Ine. ²² Ine ndikanapanda kubwera ndi kuyankhula nawo, sakanakhala ndi mlandu. Koma tsopano alibe choti nʼkukanira mlandu wawo. ²³ Iye amene amadana ndi Ine amadananso Atate anga. ²⁴ Ine ndikanapanda kuchita pakati pawo zinthu zimene wina aliyense sanachitepo, iwo sakanakhala ochimwa. Koma tsopano aona zodabwitsa izi, komabe akundida Ine pamodzi ndi Atate anga. ²⁵ Koma zatere kuti zikwaniritse zimene zinalembedwa mʼmalamulo awo: ‘Iwo anandida Ine popanda chifukwa.’

Ntchito ya Mzimu Woyera

²⁶ “Nkhoswe ikadzabwera imene Ine ndidzakutumizireni kuchokera kwa Atate, ndiye Mzimu Woyera wachoonadi amene achokera kwa Atate, Iyeyo adzandichitira umboni Ine. ²⁷ Inunso mudzandichitira umboni Ine, popeza mwakhala nane kuchokera pachiyambi.”
