¹Yesu aliwaambia, "Msifadhaike mioyoni mwenu. Mwaminini Mungu, niaminini na mimi pia.

¹`Let not your heart be troubled, believe in God, also in me believe;

²Nyumbani mwa Baba yangu mna makao mengi; la sivyo ningalikwisha waambieni. Sasa nakwenda kuwatayarishieni nafasi.

²in the house of my Father are many mansions; and if not, I would have told you; I go on to prepare a place for you;

³Na nikienda na kuwatayarishieni nafasi, nitarudi na kuwachukueni kwangu, ili nanyi muwe pale nilipo mimi.

³and if I go on and prepare for you a place, again do I come, and will receive you unto myself, that where I am ye also may be;

⁴Mnajua njia ya kwenda huko ninakokwenda."

⁴and whither I go away ye have known, and the way ye have known.`

⁵Thoma akamwuliza, "Bwana, hatujui unakokwenda, tutawezaje basi, kuijua hiyo njia?"

⁵Thomas saith to him, `Sir, we have not known whither thou goest away, and how are we able to know the way?`

⁶Yesu akamjibu, "Mimi ni njia, na ukweli na uzima. Hakuna awezaye kwenda kwa Baba ila kwa kupitia kwangu.

⁶Jesus saith to him, `I am the way, and the truth, and the life, no one doth come unto the Father, if not through me;

⁷Ikiwa mnanijua mimi mnamjua na Baba yangu pia. Na tangu sasa, mnamjua, tena mmekwisha mwona."

⁷if ye had known me, my Father also ye would have known, and from this time ye have known Him, and have seen Him.`

⁸Filipo akamwambia, "Bwana, tuonyeshe Baba, nasi tutatosheka."

⁸Philip saith to him, `Sir, shew to us the Father, and it is enough for us;`

⁹Yesu akamwambia, "Filipo, nimekaa nanyi muda wote huu, nawe hujanijua? Aliyekwisha niona mimi amemwona Baba. Unawezaje basi, kusema: Tuonyeshe Baba?

⁹Jesus saith to him, `So long time am I with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? he who hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how dost thou say, Shew to us the Father?

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.

¹⁰Believest thou not that I [am] in the Father, and the Father is in me? the sayings that I speak to you, from myself I speak not, and the Father who is abiding in me, Himself doth the works;

¹¹Mnapaswa kuniamini ninaposema kwamba mimi niko ndani ya Baba naye Baba yuko ndani yangu. Ama sivyo, aminini kwa sababu ya mambo ninayofanya.

¹¹believe me, that I [am] in the Father, and the Father in me; and if not, because of the works themselves, believe me.

¹²Kweli nawaambieni, anayeniamini atafanya mambo ninayofanya mimi; naam, atafanya hata makuu zaidi, maana nakwenda kwa Baba.

¹²`Verily, verily, I say to you, he who is believing in me, the works that I do — that one also shall do, and greater than these he shall do, because I go on to my Father;

¹³Na chochote mtakachoomba kwa jina langu nitafanya, ili Baba atukuzwe ndani ya Mwana.

¹³and whatever ye may ask in my name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

¹⁴Mkiniomba chochote kwa jina langu, nitawafanyieni.

¹⁴if ye ask anything in my name I will do [it].

¹⁵"Mkinipenda mtazishika amri zangu.

¹⁵`If ye love me, my commands keep,

¹⁶Nami nitamwomba Baba naye atawapeni Msaidizi mwingine, atakayekaa nanyi milele.

¹⁶and I will ask the Father, and another Comforter He will give to you, that he may remain with you — to the age;

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.

¹⁷the Spirit of truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it doth not behold him, nor know him, and ye know him, because he doth remain with you, and shall be in you.

¹⁸"Sitawaacha ninyi yatima; nitakuja tena kwenu.

¹⁸`I will not leave you bereaved, I come unto you;

¹⁹Bado kidogo nao ulimwengu hautaniona tena, lakini ninyi mtaniona; na kwa kuwa mimi ni hai, nanyi pia mtakuwa hai.

¹⁹yet a little, and the world doth no more behold me, and ye behold me, because I live, and ye shall live;

²⁰Siku ile itakapofika mtajua kwamba mimi niko ndani ya Baba, nanyi mko ndani yangu, nami ndani yenu.

²⁰in that day ye shall know that I [am] in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you;

²¹Azipokeaye amri zangu na kuzishika, yeye ndiye anipendaye. Naye anipendaye mimi atapendwa na Baba yangu, nami nitampenda na kujidhihirisha kwake."

²¹he who is having my commands, and is keeping them, that one it is who is loving me, and he who is loving me shall be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.`

²²Yuda (si yule Iskarioti) akamwambia, "Bwana, itawezekanaje wewe kujidhihirisha kwetu na si kwa ulimwengu?"

²²Judas saith to him, (not the Iscariot), `Sir, what hath come to pass, that to us thou are about to manifest thyself, and not to the world?`

²³Yesu akamjibu, "Mtu akinipenda atashika neno langu, na Baba yangu atampenda, nasi tutakuja kwake na kukaa naye.

²³Jesus answered and said to him, `If any one may love me, my word he will keep, and my Father will love him, and unto him we will come, and abode with him we will make;

²⁴Asiyenipenda hashiki maneno yangu. Na neno mlilosikia si langu, bali ni lake Baba aliyenituma.

²⁴he who is not loving me, my words doth not keep; and the word that ye hear is not mine, but the Father`s who sent me.

²⁵"Nimewaambieni mambo haya nikiwa bado pamoja nanyi

²⁵`These things I have spoken to you, remaining with you,

²⁶lakini Msaidizi, Roho Mtakatifu, ambaye Baba atamtuma kwa jina langu, atawafundisheni kila kitu na kuwakumbusheni yote niliyowaambieni.

²⁶and the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and remind you of all things that I said to you.

²⁷"Nawaachieni amani; nawapeni amani yangu. Siwapi ninyi kama vile ulimwengu ufanyavyo. Msiwe na wasiwasi, wala msifadhaike.

²⁷`Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you, not according as the world doth give do I give to you; let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid;

²⁸Mlikwisha sikia nikiwaambieni: Ninakwenda zangu, kisha nitarudi tena kwenu. Kama mngalinipenda mngalifurahi kwa sababu ninakwenda kwa Baba, maana yeye ni mkuu kuliko mimi.

²⁸ye heard that I said to you — I go away, and I come unto you; if ye did love me, ye would have rejoiced that I said — I go on to the Father, because my Father is greater than I.

²⁹Nimewaambieni haya sasa kabla hayajatokea, ili yatakapotokea mpate kuamini.

²⁹`And now I have said [it] to you before it come to pass, that when it may come to pass, ye may believe;

³⁰Sitasema nanyi tena mambo mengi, maana mtawala wa ulimwengu huu anakuja. Kwangu mimi hawezi kitu;

³⁰I will no more talk much with you, for the ruler of this world doth come, and in me he hath nothing;

³¹lakini ulimwengu unapaswa kujua kwamba nampenda Baba, na ndiyo maana nafanya kila kitu kama Baba alivyoniamuru. Simameni, tutoke hapa!"

³¹but that the world may know that I love the Father, and according as the Father gave me command so I do; arise, we may go hence.
