1Let not your heart be troubled: believe in God, believe also in me.
1Yesu aliwaambia, "Msifadhaike mioyoni mwenu. Mwaminini Mungu, niaminini na mimi pia.
2In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.
2Nyumbani mwa Baba yangu mna makao mengi; la sivyo ningalikwisha waambieni. Sasa nakwenda kuwatayarishieni nafasi.
3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.
3Na nikienda na kuwatayarishieni nafasi, nitarudi na kuwachukueni kwangu, ili nanyi muwe pale nilipo mimi.
4And whither I go, ye know the way.
4Mnajua njia ya kwenda huko ninakokwenda."
5Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; how know we the way?
5Thoma akamwuliza, "Bwana, hatujui unakokwenda, tutawezaje basi, kuijua hiyo njia?"
6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
6Yesu akamjibu, "Mimi ni njia, na ukweli na uzima. Hakuna awezaye kwenda kwa Baba ila kwa kupitia kwangu.
7If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
7Ikiwa mnanijua mimi mnamjua na Baba yangu pia. Na tangu sasa, mnamjua, tena mmekwisha mwona."
8Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
8Filipo akamwambia, "Bwana, tuonyeshe Baba, nasi tutatosheka."
9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and dost thou not know me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father?
9Yesu akamwambia, "Filipo, nimekaa nanyi muda wote huu, nawe hujanijua? Aliyekwisha niona mimi amemwona Baba. Unawezaje basi, kusema: Tuonyeshe Baba?
10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from myself: but the Father abiding in me doeth his works.
10Je, huamini kwamba mimi niko ndani ya Baba, naye Baba yuko ndani yangu? Maneno ninayowaambieni nyote siyasemi kwa mamlaka yangu; Baba aliye ndani yangu anafanya kazi yake.
11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
11Mnapaswa kuniamini ninaposema kwamba mimi niko ndani ya Baba naye Baba yuko ndani yangu. Ama sivyo, aminini kwa sababu ya mambo ninayofanya.
12Verily, 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 the Father.
12Kweli nawaambieni, anayeniamini atafanya mambo ninayofanya mimi; naam, atafanya hata makuu zaidi, maana nakwenda kwa Baba.
13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
13Na chochote mtakachoomba kwa jina langu nitafanya, ili Baba atukuzwe ndani ya Mwana.
14If ye shall ask anything in my name, that will I do.
14Mkiniomba chochote kwa jina langu, nitawafanyieni.
15If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments.
15"Mkinipenda mtazishika amri zangu.
16And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,
16Nami nitamwomba Baba naye atawapeni Msaidizi mwingine, atakayekaa nanyi milele.
17[even] the Spirit of truth: whom the world cannot receive; for it beholdeth him not, neither knoweth him: ye know him; for he abideth with you, and shall be in you.
17Yeye ni Roho wa kweli. Ulimwengu hauwezi kumpokea kwa sababu hauwezi kumwona wala kumjua. Lakini ninyi mnamjua kwa sababu anabaki nanyi na yu ndani yenu.
18I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you.
18"Sitawaacha ninyi yatima; nitakuja tena kwenu.
19Yet a little while, and the world beholdeth me no more; but ye behold me: because I live, ye shall live also.
19Bado kidogo nao ulimwengu hautaniona tena, lakini ninyi mtaniona; na kwa kuwa mimi ni hai, nanyi pia mtakuwa hai.
20In that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
20Siku ile itakapofika mtajua kwamba mimi niko ndani ya Baba, nanyi mko ndani yangu, nami ndani yenu.
21He 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 unto him.
21Azipokeaye amri zangu na kuzishika, yeye ndiye anipendaye. Naye anipendaye mimi atapendwa na Baba yangu, nami nitampenda na kujidhihirisha kwake."
22Judas (not Iscariot) saith unto him, Lord, what is come to pass that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
22Yuda (si yule Iskarioti) akamwambia, "Bwana, itawezekanaje wewe kujidhihirisha kwetu na si kwa ulimwengu?"
23Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
23Yesu akamjibu, "Mtu akinipenda atashika neno langu, na Baba yangu atampenda, nasi tutakuja kwake na kukaa naye.
24He that loveth me not keepeth not my words: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me.
24Asiyenipenda hashiki maneno yangu. Na neno mlilosikia si langu, bali ni lake Baba aliyenituma.
25These things have I spoken unto you, while [yet] abiding with you.
25"Nimewaambieni mambo haya nikiwa bado pamoja nanyi
26But the Comforter, [even] the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you.
26lakini Msaidizi, Roho Mtakatifu, ambaye Baba atamtuma kwa jina langu, atawafundisheni kila kitu na kuwakumbusheni yote niliyowaambieni.
27Peace 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 fearful.
27"Nawaachieni amani; nawapeni amani yangu. Siwapi ninyi kama vile ulimwengu ufanyavyo. Msiwe na wasiwasi, wala msifadhaike.
28Ye heard how I said to you, I go away, and I come unto you. If ye loved me, ye would have rejoiced, because I go unto the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
28Mlikwisha sikia nikiwaambieni: Ninakwenda zangu, kisha nitarudi tena kwenu. Kama mngalinipenda mngalifurahi kwa sababu ninakwenda kwa Baba, maana yeye ni mkuu kuliko mimi.
29And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe.
29Nimewaambieni haya sasa kabla hayajatokea, ili yatakapotokea mpate kuamini.
30I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world cometh: and he hath nothing in me;
30Sitasema nanyi tena mambo mengi, maana mtawala wa ulimwengu huu anakuja. Kwangu mimi hawezi kitu;
31but 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.
31lakini ulimwengu unapaswa kujua kwamba nampenda Baba, na ndiyo maana nafanya kila kitu kama Baba alivyoniamuru. Simameni, tutoke hapa!"
