1 Yohana 1
1 A hei naki ni mumla, waki woh, di toh ni shi shi mbu di yah di ka wo mbu sa ni tu tre u tutrun.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have contemplated, and our very hands have felt concerning the Word of life,
2 Na ki ba du ta toh rei'a, i ki toh'o di kpayiem ni u. Kisi hla yuu tre rei u tutru wa a he ni ti mbu, wa ba tsro ta. (aiōnios g166)
(for this Life was manifested, and we saw it; and we testify and declare unto you that eternal Life, which was with the Father, (aiōnios g166)
3 Ikpe wa ki toh di wo di hla ni yu'u, u'biyi me bi ka tu kabi ni ta. Shu bi mbu a hei ni ti ni vre yesu kristi.
and was manifested unto us) what we have seen and heard we declare unto you, that ye also may have communion with us: and our communion is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 Na ki kita me kisi han kpi biyi ni yu'u, du kikla suron mbu cika gri ififga.
And these things we write unto you, that your joy may be complete.
5 Wa yi hi imbre wa kita ki woh jri ni'u ki hla ni yu'u, Irji hi kpan ni wu ibwu na hei na kofi.
Now this we have heard from Him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.
6 Inde kitre di ki katukabi ni'u; di ni zre ni mi bwu di ni ti che, ki na si bla tre 'u jaji na.
If we say that we have communion with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practise the truth:
7 Naki kita si zren ni mi kpan, na wa wu hei ni mi kpan, ki si katu mbu bi ha mire vayi, 'u' yin vre ma yesu ni kla ta ni milan tre wa wu.
but if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have communion with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 Inde kitre di ki na lahtre na kisi qrue tumbu, u jaji na hei ni suron mbu na.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Inde kihla la latre mbu rju ra wawu a hi jaji da wa ani gla ta ni mi latre mbu.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness:
10 Inde ki tre di kina lahtre na, ki kma u ti ndi u'che, u'tre ma ana hei ni mi mbu na.
but if we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
