1 Yohane 3
1 Taonani kukula kwake kwa chikondi chimene Atate anatikonda nacho, kuti titchedwe ana a Mulungu! Ndipo nʼchimene ife tili! Nʼchifukwa chake dziko lapansi silitidziwa chifukwa silinamudziwe Iye.
Se ye what maner charite the fadir yaf to vs, that we be named the sones of God, and ben hise sones. For this thing the world knewe not vs, for it knew not hym.
2 Abale okondedwa, tsopano ndife ana a Mulungu, ndipo sichinaoneke chimene tidzakhala. Koma tikudziwa kuti Yesu akadzaonekera, tidzafanana naye, pakuti tidzamuona Iyeyo monga momwe alili.
Moost dere britheren, now we ben the sones of God, and yit it apperide not, what we schulen be. We witen, that whanne he schal appere, we schulen be lijk hym, for we schulen se hym as he is.
3 Aliyense amene ali ndi chiyembekezo ichi mwa Iye adziyeretse yekha, monga Iye ali woyera.
And ech man that hath this hope in hym, makith hym silf hooli, as he is hooli.
4 Aliyense amene amachimwa amaphwanya lamulo; pakuti tchimo ndi kuphwanya lamulo.
Ech man that doith synne, doith also wickidnesse, and synne is wickidnesse.
5 Koma inu mukudziwa kuti Yesu anabwera kuti adzachotse machimo athu. Ndipo mwa Iye mulibe tchimo.
And ye witen, that he apperide to do awei synnes, and synne is not in hym.
6 Aliyense wokhala mwa Khristu sachimwa. Aliyense amene amachimwa sanamuone kapena kumudziwa.
Ech man that dwellith in hym, synneth not; and ech that synneth, seeth not hym, nether knew hym.
7 Ana okondedwa, musalole kuti aliyense akusocheretseni. Munthu amene amachita chilungamo ndi wolungama, monga Khristu ali wolungama.
Litle sones, no man disseyue you; he that doith riytwysnesse, is iust, as also he is iust.
8 Iye amene amachimwa ndi wa Satana, chifukwa mdierekezi wakhala akuchimwa kuyambira pa chiyambi. Mwana wa Mulungu anaonekera kuti awononge ntchito za mdierekezi.
He that doith synne, is of the deuel; for the deuel synneth fro the bigynnyng. In this thing the sone of God apperide, that he vndo the werkis of the deuel.
9 Aliyense amene ndi mwana wa Mulungu, sachimwirachimwira, popeza mbewu ya Mulungu ili mwa iye, sangathe kuchimwa, chifukwa ndi mwana wa Mulungu.
Ech man that is borun of God, doith not synne; for the seed of God dwellith in hym, and he may not do synne, for he is borun of God.
10 Mmenemu ndi mmene timadziwira ana a Mulungu ndi amene ali ana a mdierekezi. Aliyense amene sachita chilungamo si mwana wa Mulungu; ngakhalenso amene sakonda mʼbale wake.
In this thing the sones of God ben knowun, and the sones of the feend. Ech man that is not iust, is not of God, and he that loueth not his brothir.
11 Uthenga umene munawumva kuyambira pachiyambi ndi uwu: Tizikondana wina ndi mnzake.
For this is the tellyng, that ye herden at the bigynnyng, that ye loue ech othere;
12 Musakhale ngati Kaini, amene anali wa woyipayo ndipo anapha mʼbale wake. Nanga anamupha chifukwa chiyani? Chifukwa zochita zake zinali zoyipa ndipo zochita za mʼbale wake zinali zolungama.
not as Caym, that was of the yuele, and slouy his brother. And for what thing slouy he him? for hise werkis weren yuele, and hise brotheris iust.
13 Abale anga, musadabwe ngati dziko lapansi lidana nanu.
Britheren, nyle ye wondre, if the world hatith you.
14 Ife tikudziwa kuti tinatuluka mu imfa ndi kulowa mʼmoyo, chifukwa timakonda abale athu. Aliyense amene sakonda mʼbale wake akanali mu imfa.
We witen, that we ben translatid fro deeth to lijf, for we louen britheren. He that loueth not, dwellith in deth.
15 Aliyense amene amadana ndi mʼbale wake ndi wakupha, ndipo inu mukudziwa kuti wopha anthu mwa iye mulibe moyo wosatha. (aiōnios g166)
Ech man that hatith his brother, is a man sleere; and ye witen, that ech mansleere hath not euerlastinge lijf dwellinge in hym. (aiōnios g166)
16 Mmene timadziwira chikondi chenicheni ndi umu: Yesu anapereka moyo wake chifukwa cha ife. Ndipo nafenso tiyenera kupereka miyoyo yathu chifukwa cha abale athu.
In this thing we han knowe the charite of God, for he puttide his lijf for vs, and we owen to putte oure lyues for oure britheren.
17 Ngati wina ali ndi chuma ndipo nʼkuona mʼbale wake akusowa, koma wosamvera chisoni, kodi mwa iyeyo muli chikondi cha Mulungu?
He that hath the catel of this world, and seeth that his brothir hath nede, and closith his entrailis fro hym, hou dwellith the charite of God in hym?
18 Ana okondedwa, chikondi chathu chisakhale cha pakamwa pokha koma cha ntchito zathu ndi mʼchoonadi.
Mi litle sones, loue we not in word, nethir in tunge, but in werk and treuthe.
19 Pamenepo tidzadziwa kuti tili pa choonadi ndipo tidzakhala okhazikika mtima pamaso pa Mulungu,
In this thing we knowen, that we ben of treuthe, and in his siyt we monesten oure hertis.
20 nthawi zonse pamene mtima wathu utitsutsa. Pakuti Mulungu ndi wamkulu kuposa mitima yathu ndipo Iye amadziwa zonse.
For if oure herte repreueth vs, God is more than oure hert, and knowith alle thingis.
21 Anzanga okondedwa, ngati mitima yathu sikutitsutsa, tili nako kulimbika mtima pamaso pa Mulungu.
Moost dere britheren, if oure herte repreueth not vs, we han trust to God;
22 Ndipo timalandira chilichonse chimene tichipempha kwa Iye, chifukwa timamvera malamulo ake ndi kuchita zimene zimamukondweretsa.
and what euer we schulen axe, we schulen resseyue of hym, for we kepen hise comaundementis, and we don tho thingis that ben plesaunt bifor hym.
23 Ndipo lamulo lake ndi ili: kukhulupirira dzina la Mwana wake, Yesu Khristu, ndi kukondana wina ndi mnzake monga Iye anatilamulira.
And this is the comaundement of God, that we bileue in the name of his sone Jhesu Crist, and that we loue ech othere, as he yaf heeste to vs.
24 Iwo amene amamvera malamulo ake amakhala mwa Iye, ndipo Iye amakhala mwa iwo. Ndipo mmenemu ndi momwe timadziwira kuti Iye akukhala mwa ife. Timadziwa mwa Mzimu Woyera amene anatipatsa.
And he that kepith hise comaundementis, dwellith in hym, and he in hym. And in this thing we witen, that he dwellith in vs, bi the spirit, whom he yaf to vs.
