1 Ninia da dilima eso huluane mae bogole Fifi Ahoanusu Sia: dafa amo da eso huluane eno liligi hame galu eso amoga dialusu, amo olelemusa: dilima dedesa. Amo Sia: dafa E da osobo bagade dunu hamoiba: le, amo ninia gega nabi amola siga ba: i. Dafawane! Amo ninia ba: i dagoi amola ninia loboga digili ba: i dagoi.
It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.
2 Amo eso huluane mae bogole Fifi Ahoanusu Sia: dafa da dunu ba: ma: ne da: i hodo lai, amo ninia ba: i dagoi. Amaiba: le, ninia amo hou olelesa. Eso huluane mae bogole Fifi Ahoanusu da musa: Gode amola gilisili esalu. Ada Gode da ninima olelebeba: le, ninia da bu dilima olelesa. (aiōnios )
And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios )
3 Ninia amola Ada Gode amola Egefedafa Yesu Gelesu, da gilisili fi hamoi dagoi. Dilia dogo da ninia fi ninima gilisima: ne, ninia ba: i liligi amola nabi liligi dilima olelesa.
It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Dilia hahawane hou da nabaiwane ba: ma: ne, ninia da amo hou dilima dedesa.
And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 Amo sia: Gode Egefedafa ninima olelei, ninia da dunu enoma bu olelesa amane, “Gode da Hadigidafa. Ea hou amo ganodini, gasi da hamedafa gala.”
This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.
6 Amaiba: le, ninia da Godema na: iyado gala ninia da lafidili sia: sea, be gasi ganodini ahoanebe ba: sea, ninia da lafidili amola ninia hou hamonanebe, amoga ogogosa.
If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.
7 Be ninia Gode defele hadigi ganodini ahoasea, ninia amola ninia fi dunu, na: iyado fi hamosa. Amola Gode Egefedafa, amo Yesu, E da ninia wadela: i hou huluanedafa Ea maga: mega dodofesa.
But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.
8 Be ninia da wadela: i hou hame dawa: , amo sia: sea, ninisu ninima ogogosa. Amai galea, ninia dafawane hou hame dawa:
If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
9 Be ninia wadela: i hou hamoi Godema fofada: sea, ninia da Ea moloidafa sia: i liligi ba: mu. E da ninia wadela: i hou bu gogolema: ne olofole, amo wadela: i hou bu mae ba: ma: ne dodofemu.
But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.
10 Be ninia wadela: i hou hamedafa hamoi amo sia: sea, ninia da Gode da ogogosu dunu giadofale olelesa. Amai galea, Gode Ea Sia: da ninia dogo ganodini hame gala.
If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.
