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.
Ἴδετε ποταπὴν ἀγάπην δέδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ πατήρ, ἵνα τέκνα θεοῦ κληθῶμεν, καί ἐσμεν. διὰ τοῦτο ὁ κόσμος οὐ γινώσκει ἡμᾶς, ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνω αὐτόν.
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.
Ἀγαπητοί, νῦν τέκνα θεοῦ ἐσμεν, καὶ οὔπω ἐφανερώθη τί ἐσόμεθα· οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐὰν φανερωθῇ, ὅμοιοι αὐτῷ ἐσόμεθα, ὅτι ὀψόμεθα αὐτὸν καθώς ἐστιν.
3 Aliyense amene ali ndi chiyembekezo ichi mwa Iye adziyeretse yekha, monga Iye ali woyera.
καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἔχων τὴν ἐλπίδα ταύτην ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ ἁγνίζει ἑαυτὸν καθὼς ἐκεῖνος ἁγνός ἐστιν.
4 Aliyense amene amachimwa amaphwanya lamulo; pakuti tchimo ndi kuphwanya lamulo.
πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν καὶ τὴν ἀνομίαν ποιεῖ, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία.
5 Koma inu mukudziwa kuti Yesu anabwera kuti adzachotse machimo athu. Ndipo mwa Iye mulibe tchimo.
καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ἐφανερώθη ἵνα τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἄρῃ, καὶ ἁμαρτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν.
6 Aliyense wokhala mwa Khristu sachimwa. Aliyense amene amachimwa sanamuone kapena kumudziwa.
πᾶς ὁ ἐν αὐτῷ μένων οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει· πᾶς ὁ ἁμαρτάνων οὐχ ἑώρακεν αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἔγνωκεν αὐτόν.
7 Ana okondedwa, musalole kuti aliyense akusocheretseni. Munthu amene amachita chilungamo ndi wolungama, monga Khristu ali wolungama.
τεκνία, μηδεὶς πλανάτω ὑμᾶς· ὁ ποιῶν τὴν δικαιοσύνην δίκαιός ἐστιν, καθὼς ἐκεῖνος δίκαιός ἐστιν.
8 Iye amene amachimwa ndi wa Satana, chifukwa mdierekezi wakhala akuchimwa kuyambira pa chiyambi. Mwana wa Mulungu anaonekera kuti awononge ntchito za mdierekezi.
ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐκ τοῦ διαβόλου ἐστίν, ὅτι ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς ὁ διάβολος ἁμαρτάνει. εἰς τοῦτο ἐφανερώθη ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα λύσῃ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ διαβόλου.
9 Aliyense amene ndi mwana wa Mulungu, sachimwirachimwira, popeza mbewu ya Mulungu ili mwa iye, sangathe kuchimwa, chifukwa ndi mwana wa Mulungu.
πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἁμαρτίαν οὐ ποιεῖ, ὅτι σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει· καὶ οὐ δύναται ἁμαρτάνειν, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ γεγέννηται.
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.
ἐν τούτῳ φανερά ἐστιν τὰ τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα τοῦ διαβόλου. πᾶς ὁ μὴ ποιῶν δικαιοσύνην οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ·
11 Uthenga umene munawumva kuyambira pachiyambi ndi uwu: Tizikondana wina ndi mnzake.
ὅτι αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγγελία ἣν ἠκούσατε ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς, ἵνα ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους·
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.
οὐ καθὼς Κάϊν ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ ἦν, καὶ ἔσφαξεν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ χάριν τίνος ἔσφαξεν αὐτόν; ὅτι τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ πονηρὰ ἦν, τὰ δὲ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ δίκαια.
13 Abale anga, musadabwe ngati dziko lapansi lidana nanu.
Μὴ θαυμάζετε, ἀδελφοί, εἰ μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος.
14 Ife tikudziwa kuti tinatuluka mu imfa ndi kulowa mʼmoyo, chifukwa timakonda abale athu. Aliyense amene sakonda mʼbale wake akanali mu imfa.
ἡμεῖς οἴδαμεν ὅτι μεταβεβήκαμεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν, ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τοὺς ἀδελφούς· ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν μένει ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ.
15 Aliyense amene amadana ndi mʼbale wake ndi wakupha, ndipo inu mukudziwa kuti wopha anthu mwa iye mulibe moyo wosatha. (aiōnios g166)
πᾶς ὁ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, ἀνθρωποκτόνος ἐστίν· καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι πᾶς ἀνθρωποκτόνος οὐκ ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἐν αὐτῷ μένουσαν. (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.
ἐν τούτῳ ἐγνώκαμεν τὴν ἀγάπην, ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἔθηκεν· καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν τὰς ψυχὰς θεῖναι.
17 Ngati wina ali ndi chuma ndipo nʼkuona mʼbale wake akusowa, koma wosamvera chisoni, kodi mwa iyeyo muli chikondi cha Mulungu?
ὃς δ᾽ ἂν ἔχῃ τὸν βίον τοῦ κόσμου, καὶ θεωρῇ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ χρείαν ἔχοντα καὶ κλείσῃ τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, πῶς ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐν αὐτῷ;
18 Ana okondedwa, chikondi chathu chisakhale cha pakamwa pokha koma cha ntchito zathu ndi mʼchoonadi.
τεκνία, μὴ ἀγαπῶμεν λόγῳ μηδὲ τῇ γλώσσῃ, ἀλλὰ ἐν ἔργῳ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ.
19 Pamenepo tidzadziwa kuti tili pa choonadi ndipo tidzakhala okhazikika mtima pamaso pa Mulungu,
[καὶ] ἐν τούτῳ γνωσόμεθα ὅτι ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας ἐσμέν, καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πείσομεν τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν·
20 nthawi zonse pamene mtima wathu utitsutsa. Pakuti Mulungu ndi wamkulu kuposa mitima yathu ndipo Iye amadziwa zonse.
ὅτι ἐὰν καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν ἡ καρδία, ὅτι μείζων ἐστὶν ὁ θεὸς τῆς καρδίας ἡμῶν καὶ γινώσκει πάντα.
21 Anzanga okondedwa, ngati mitima yathu sikutitsutsa, tili nako kulimbika mtima pamaso pa Mulungu.
ἀγαπητοί, ἐὰν ἡ καρδία μὴ καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν, παῤῥησίαν ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν θεόν,
22 Ndipo timalandira chilichonse chimene tichipempha kwa Iye, chifukwa timamvera malamulo ake ndi kuchita zimene zimamukondweretsa.
καὶ ὃ ἐὰν αἰτῶμεν λαμβάνομεν ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηροῦμεν καὶ τὰ ἀρεστὰ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ποιοῦμεν.
23 Ndipo lamulo lake ndi ili: kukhulupirira dzina la Mwana wake, Yesu Khristu, ndi kukondana wina ndi mnzake monga Iye anatilamulira.
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ, ἵνα πιστεύωμεν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους, καθὼς ἔδωκεν ἐντολὴν ἡμῖν.
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.
καὶ ὁ τηρῶν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν αὐτῷ. καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι μένει ἐν ἡμῖν, ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος οὗ ἡμῖν ἔδωκεν.
