1 Yohana 2
1 Mri, mi si han kpi biyi ni yu'u du yina lahtre na. Uri ni ta lahtre ki hei ni di u kpa wo mbu ni wo timbu, wato yesu christy wa wu di riri wa ana latre na.
My little children, I write these things to you, in order that you may not sin. And if any one may sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
2 Wa wu yi ni wur latre mbu laga ana'u mbu ni klembu na u gbugbu wawu.
he is the expiator for our sins: and not ours only, but indeed for the whole world.
3 Kitoh di ki ye toh idan ki u tre ma.
And in this we know that we have known him, if we are keeping his commandments.
4 Indi wa atre di wawu toh Irji da na hu tre ma na a hi di wu che u jaji na hei ni suron ma na.
The one saying, I have known him, and keeping not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;
5 Indi wa a grji trema jaji hei wu ni Irji. Na yi ki toh di ki hei tare ni wu.
but whosoever shall keep his word, truly the divine love of God has been made perfect in him. In this we know that we are in him.
6 Indi wa a tre di wa wu hei ni. Irji ka zre na wawu a zre a.
The one saying that he abides in him ought himself so to walk about, as he also did walk about.
7 Mir ya, mina si han tre sisa ma ni yu'u na ahi cihe tre wa bi woh rimumal chiche tre a hi tre wa bi wo'a.
Beloved, I write no new commandment to you, but the old one which you had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.
8 Misi han tre sa ma ni yu'u wa a jaji ni mi kristi ni mi mbi me, don ibwu a zren ka si hi kpama. u kpan u jaji a si kpan
Again I do write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you: because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.
9 Indi wa a tre di wawu hei ni mi kpan, da ni kran vayi ma ahei ni mi bwu, da si zre ni mi bwu har ni zizah.
The one saying that he is in the light, and hating his brother, is in the darkness until now.
10 Indi wa a ni yiem vayi ma ahei ni mi kpan, ama kub zah na.
The one loving his brother with divine love abides in the light, and there is no stumbling in him.
11 Naki, i wa a nikra vayi ma ahei ni mi bwu da si zre ni mi bwu a na ton bubu wa a si hi na; don ibwu a ka shishi ma.
But the one hating his brother is in darkness, and walks about in darkness, and does not know whither he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
12 Mi si han ni yu'u mri, ba wur lahtre mbi hie ni yu'u ni tu de ma.
I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven through his name.
13 Mi si han ni yu'u bati dan bi yi bi toh wa ahei rji ni mumla, Mi si han ni yu'u mri ze don bi zan gbe ngbenlen ibrji, mi han ni yu'u mri don bi toh ti'a.
I write unto you, fathers, because you have known him who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because you have conquered the wicked one. I have written unto you, little children, because you have known the Father.
14 Mi riga nan ni yuwu ba ti don bi toh ndia rji ni mumla, Mi riga han ni yu'u mrize don bi hei ni gbengbenlen, u tre Irji a hei ni yi, na ki bi zan gbengbenlen bi me me dri.
I have written unto you, fathers, because you have known him from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
15 Na kpayiem ni kpi gbugbulu na, ni kpi bi wa ba hei ni mi gbugbulu 'a indi wa a ni son gbugbulu, i son 'u Irji na ni 'u na.
Love not the world, nor the things that are in the world. If any one loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him:
16 Du ikpi bi wa ba hei ni mi gbugbulu, ba bi nma kpa ba vo shishi, ni bi kpa di tsri, nu zu tu ba na rji ni ti na ba rji ni gbugbulu.
because this is all that is in the world; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, which is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 Gbugbulun ni kpi bi wa a ni son ba si kle, indi wa a si ti du ni tre rji a ni son seisei nisei. (aiōn g165)
The world and its lust are indeed passing away; but the one doing the will of God abides forever. (aiōn g165)
18 Imir itoh a ye 'u kle, na wa bi woh bi kran kristi ba si ye zizan gbugbu'u ba ye. Na ki bi ka toh di itoh ye kle.
Little children, it is the last hour: and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, from which we know that it is the last hour.
19 Ba ryu ni mi mbu iki tsro di ba na hei ni ta na. Bana hei ni ta ba na san ni ta, da ba ni kpaba a tsro di bana hei ni ta na.
They came out from us, but they were not of us; for if they were of us, they would have remained with us: but in order that they might be made manifest that they are not all of us.
20 Bi hei ni anointing u rji ni tsa tsra ka bi toh wa wu bi.
You have an unction from the Holy One, and you all know.
21 Mi na han ni yuu di bina toh jaji na naki bi toh'o, iche na hei ni mi jaji na.
I have not written unto you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 A hi gha hi ndi u'iche, a hi ndi wa ana kpayiem ni yesu da kristi na ndi ki ma hi wa ba kran yesu, wa ana toh ti'a mba ver a na.
Who is a liar except the one denying that Jesus is the Christ? This one is the antichrist, the one denying the Father and the Son.
23 Indi wa ana yeini ni vre'a na a nato ti'a na. Indi wa a buh yun ma da kpa vre'a hei ni ti'a game.
No one denying the Son has the Father: the one confessing the Son has also the Father.
24 Naki iwu du kpi wa'u woh rji ni mumla krie ni'u inde kpi wa u woh rji ni mumla ahei ni wu, in u' wu hei ni vre ba tima game.
Let that which you heard from the beginning abide in you. If that which you heard from the beginning may abide in you, you also are abiding in the Son, and in the Father.
This is the message which he proclaimed unto you, eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Me han kpi bi yi yiwu du bari gru ye yi you ni nkon meme ma na.
I have written these things unto you concerning those deceiving you.
27 Naki u' ikpie wa'u kpa ni wu ahei ni wu, wuna si wa indio du ye tsro u na du Ruhu ma wa wu kpa tsro kpe ba wawu wa ba jaji bana che na, ni yada a tsro u son ni'u na ki me.
And the unction which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one may teach you: but as his unction teaches you concerning all things, and it is true, and it is no lie, and as he has taught you, abide in him.
28 Zizan mri son naki chachu wa aye ki hei ni gbengbenlen, ana shan ni tita niye ma na.
And now, little children, abide in him; in order that, if he may appear, we may have boldness, and not shrink with embarrassment from him in his presence.
29 Inde wu toh da a hei ni kiklan suron, u ka toh di indi wa ani ti kpe wa a zizi ba grji di ki ma ni'u.
If you may know that he is righteous, know that every one doing righteousness has been born of him.
