< 1 Joan 4 >
1 Maiteác, spiritu gucia ezteçaçuela sinhets, baina phorogaitzaçue spirituac eya Iaincoaganic diradenez: ecen anhitz propheta falsu ethorri içan dirade mundura.
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Hunetan eçagut eçaçue Iaincoaren Spiritua. Iesus Christ haraguitara ethorri dela confessatzen duen spiritu gucia, Iaincoaganic da.
Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 Eta cein-ere spirituc ezpaitu confessatzen Iesus Christ haraguitara ethorri içan dela hura ezta Iaincoaganic: eta halaco spiritua Antechristena da, ceinez minçatzen ençun vkan baituçue, ecen ethorteco dela, eta ia orain munduan da.
and every spirit which confesseth not Jesus is not of God: and this is the [spirit] of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it cometh; and now it is in the world already.
4 Haourtoác, çuec Iaincoaganic çarete, eta garaithu çaizte hæy: ecen handiago da çuetan dena, ecen ez munduan dena.
Ye are of God, [my] little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
5 Hec mundutic dirade, halacotz munduaz minço dirade, eta mundua hæy behatzen çaye.
They are of the world: therefore speak they [as] of the world, and the world heareth them.
6 Gu Iaincoaganic gara: Iaincoa eçagutzen duena, guri behatzen çaicu: Iaincoaganic eztena guri etzaicu behatzen: hunetan eçagutzen dugu eguiazco Spiritua, eta errorezco spiritua.
We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he who is not of God heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Maiteác, elkarri on eritzi dieçogun: ecen charitatea Iaincoaganic da: eta norc-ere onhesten baitu, hura Iaincoagaoic iayo da, eta eçagutzen du Iaincoa.
Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is begotten of God, and knoweth God.
8 Onhesten eztuenac, eztu eçagutzen Iaincoa: ecen Iaincoa charitate da.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 Hunetan manifestatu içan da Iaincoaren gureganaco charitatea, ceren bere Seme bakoitza igorri vkan baitu Iaincoac mundura, harçaz vici garençát.
Herein was the love of God manifested in us, that God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
10 Hunetan da charitatea, ez ceren guc onhetsi dugun Iaincoa, baina ceren harc onhetsi baiquaitu gu, eta igorri vkan baitu bere Semea gure bekatuacgatic appoinctamendu licençát.
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins.
11 Maiteac, baldin hunela Iaincoac onhetsi baiquaitu, guc-ere behar dugu elkar onhetsi.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
12 Iaincoa eztu nehorc ikussi egundano: baldin elkar maite badugu Iaincoa gutan dago, eta haren charitatea complitu da gutan.
No man hath beheld God at any time: if we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us:
13 Hunetan eçagutzen dugu ecen hartan egoiten garela, eta hura gutan, ceren bere Spiritutic eman baitraucu.
hereby know we that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 Eta guc ikussi vkan dugu, eta testificatzen dugu ecen Aitác igorri vkan duela Semea munduaren Saluadore içateco.
And we have beheld and bear witness that the Father hath sent the Son [to be] the Saviour of the world.
15 Norc-ere confessaturen baitu ecen Iesus dela Iaincoaren Semea, Iaincoa hura baithan dago, eta hura Iaincoa baithan.
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.
16 Eta guc eçagutu eta sinhetsi dugu Iaincoac guregana duen charitatea. Iaincoa charitate da: eta charitatean egoiten dena, Iainco baithan egoiten da, eta Iaincoa hura baithan.
And we know and have believed the love which God hath in us. God is love; and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him.
17 Huneçaz complitu içan da charitatea guregana, iudicioco egunean segurança dugunçát, ceren hura den beçalaco baicara gu-ere mundu hunetan.
Herein is love made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as he is, even so are we in this world.
18 Beldurric ezta charitatean: aitzitic charitate perfectoac campora egoizten du beldurra: ecen beldurrac tormenta du: eta beldur dena ezta complitua charitatean.
There is no fear in love: but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath punishment; and he that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19 Guc hari on daritzagu, ceren harc lehenic onhetsi baiquaitu gu.
We love, because he first loved us.
20 Baldin nehorc erran badeça, Maite dut Iaincoa: eta bere anayeari gaitz badaritza: gueçurti da: ecen bere anaye dacussana maite eztuenac, ikusten eztuen Iaincoa nola maite ahal duque?
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, cannot love God whom he hath not seen.
21 Eta manamendu haur dugu harenganic, Iaincoa maite duenac, maite duen bere anayea-ere.
And this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love his brother also.
