1 Yohana 5
1 Indi wa akpa yiem di yesu a kristi bagrji u rji ni Irji inde di wa a kpayiem ni ti'a naki ani yiem ni vre wa ba grji ni u.
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ, has been begotten of God: and every one that loves him that begot, loves him also that is begotten of him.
2 Ahe naki ki toh di ki kpayiem mri Irji inde ki yiem ni Irji di zi tre ma.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 Naki wa yi a yiem u'Irji: wa ki yiem ni tre ma kuma itre ma ba na u' di'na.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not burdensome.
4 Du ndi wa ba grji rji ni Irji ani zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu. Nakima hi nasara wa a zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu wato jaji bu.
For whatever is begotten of God, overcomes the world; and this is the victorious principle that overcomes the world, even our faith.
5 Ahi wu han wa a zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu'a? Ahi ndi wa a kpa yeim di yesu a vre Irji.
Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Wa yi i, hi wa aye ni ma mba yin Yesu kristi aye ni ma ni kangrji na, ama ni ma ba yin.
This is he that came by water and by blood, Jesus the Christ; not by water only, but by water and by blood: and it is the Spirit that testifies, because the Spirit is truth.
7 A baba tra wa ba kpa yiem:
For there are three that testify, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood;
8 Ni Ruhu ni ma u ni yin. Bi yi tra ba ti yaje jeniya ni kpa mba. Ifiift Greek bi sen ba han kpi didima.
and the three agree in one.
9 Inde ki kpa jaji u ndi, jaji u Irji a zan wayi hi testimony u' Irji wa a kpa yeim ni vre ma.
If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God, which he has borne concerning his Son.
10 Du ndi wa a kpayeim ni vre Irji ahei ni testimony ni suron ma indi wa ana kpayeim ni Irji na a kma u'ti ndi u' che don ana kpayeim ni testimony wa Irji no nitu vre ma na.
He that believes on the Son of God has the testimony in himself: he that believes not God, has made him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony which God has borne concerning his Son.
And this is the testimony, that God has given us eternal life: and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Indi wa ahei ni vre'a ahei ni rei. Indi wa ana hei ni vre Irji na ana hei ni rei na.
He that has the Son, has life: he that has not the Son of God, has not life.
13 Mi han kpie bi i ni yu'u du yi toh di bi hei ni rei u' tutrun ni ndi wa kpa yeim ni de vre Irji. (aiōnios g166)
I have written these things to you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Wa yi hi gbengbenlen wa ki hei ni u, du ikpie wa ki miye wa hei di di ni mere ma ani woh ta.
And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he hears us.
15 Naki inde ki toh dani wota ko ahi gye ki miye, ki ka toh di ikpie wa ki miye ki kpa ye.
And if we know that he hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
16 Inde ndi'a atoh vayi si ti latre wa ana tsra u' que na, wa ka bre Irji ni no rei, me gomace ni bi wa latre mba na kai u que na, Lahtre ri hei wa atsra u que, mina tre di du bre nitu kima na.
If any one see his brother sinning a sin not to death, he shall ask, and he will give him life for those who sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say concerning this, that he should ask.
17 Dukikpie u' meme ma a lahtre na ki lahtre wa ana tsra'u que na.
All unrighteousness is sin; and there is a sin not to death.
18 Kitoh du ndi wa ba grji'u rji ni Irji ana ti lahtre na. Naki u wa ba grji rji ni Irji gyegyere u bi ibrji na iya da ti u meme na.
We know that whoever has been begotten of God, does not sin: but he that is begotten of God, keeps himself, and the wicked one touches him not.
19 Ki toh di kita ki rji ni Irji kuma kitoh di gbugbulu wawu ahei ni mi gbengbenlen bi brji.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the wicked one.
20 Na ki ki to di ver Rji ye buh shishi ni ta u di wa yi hi jaji, ki hei ni wu wa wu hi hi jaji ni mi ver ma Yesu kristi. Iwayi yi a Rji u jaji u son kibo (tutrun). (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, that we may know him that is true: and we are in him that is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
21 Imir na cib hi ni bi birji na
Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
