Zintu zonse ziva pangwa kwali, mi nikusena iye kakwina nanga chintu chonke chisena chapangwa chiva pangwa
4 Mwa Iye munali moyo, ndipo moyowo unali kuwunika kwa anthu.
Mwali kuva kwina vuhalo, mi vuhalo vu vwina mwiseli lya vantu vonse.
5 Kuwunika kunawala mu mdima, koma mdimawo sunakuzindikire.
Iseli lyi munika mukwelima, mi mukwelima kena uvakomi iseli.
6 Kunabwera munthu amene anatumizidwa kuchokera kwa Mulungu; Iyeyo dzina lake linali Yohane.
Kuva kwina mukwame yava ku tumitwe kwa Ireeza, uzo izina lyakwe ivali Johani.

9 Kuwunika koona kumene kuwunikira munthu aliyense kunabwera ku dziko lapansi.
Ivali iseli lyeniti, lyiha iseli ku vantu vonse, lyikeza mwi fasi.
10 Iye anali mʼdziko lapansi, ndipo ngakhale kuti dziko lapansi linalengedwa ndi Iye, dziko lapansilo silinamuzindikire Iye.
Avena mwi fasi, mi fasi lyiva pangwa kwali, mi fasi kena lyiva kumwizi.
11 Iye anabwera kwa iwo amene anali akeake, koma akewo sanamulandire Iye.
Avakezi kuzakwe, mi zakwe kena ziva mutambuli.
12 Koma kwa onse amene anamulandira Iye, kwa amene anakhulupirira mʼdzina lake, Iye anawapatsa mphamvu yokhala ana a Mulungu;
Kono kwavo vangi vava mutambuli, vava zumini mwi zina lyakwe, Avahi inswanelo yo kuva vana ve Ireeza.

Ava kena vava zalwa cha malaha, kapa kentato ye nyama, kapa ke ntato yo muntu, kono ye Ireeza.
14 Mawu anasandulika thupi ndipo anakhala pakati pathu. Ife tinaona ulemerero wake, ulemerero wa Iye amene ndi Mwana mmodzi yekhayo wa Atate, wodzaza ndi chisomo ndi choonadi.
Mi linzwi chilyeza kuva inyama niku hala mukati ketu. Tuva voni inkanya yakwe, inkanya sina yozo mi iye vulyo yava kuka zwilila kwe Shetu, ye zwile chisemo ni niti.
15 Yohane achitira umboni za Iye. Iye akufuwula kuti, “Uyu ndi Iye amene ndinati, ‘Iye amene akubwera pambuyo panga ndi wondiposa ine chifukwa, Iyeyo analipo ine ndisanabadwe.’”
Jahani avapaki kuamana iye niku lilila kwakwe, na wamba, uzu njiyena wa kwavo vani va wambi, 'uzo yo keza mumasule angu u i hitilila, kakuli kwavali kwina ni niseni kuva kwateni ime.'”
16 Kuchokera mʼkuchuluka kwa chisomo chake ife tonse talandira madalitso pamwamba pa madalitso.
Kuzwa ku kwizula kwakwe tuva tambili chisemo kuzwa chisemo.
17 Pakuti lamulo linapatsidwa kudzera mwa Mose; chisomo ndi choonadi zinabwera kudzera mwa Yesu Khristu.
Kaho mulao uvahewa kwa Mushe. Chisemo ne niti ziva kezi ka Jesu Kreste.
18 Palibe munthu amene anaona Mulungu, koma Mwana mmodzi yekhayo amene ali wa pamtima pa Atate, ndiye anafotokoza za Iye.
Kakwina yava voni Ireeza ke nako ni nako. Ireeza yenkefela, yena hembali ni chizuva che Shetu, ava mwizivahazi.

Kena niva kumwizi, kono ivapangali kuti e zivahazwe ku isilaele kuti niva ku koloveza ni menzi.”
32 Kenaka Yohane anapereka umboni uwu: “Ine ndinaona Mzimu Woyera ngati nkhunda kuchokera kumwamba nakhala pa Iye.
Johani avapaki, kuwamba, “na vona Luho nilushetumuka sina inkuva kwi wulu, mi lyeza kwi kala hewulu lyakwe.
33 Ine sindikanamudziwa Iye, koma kuti amene anandituma ine kudzabatiza ndi madzi anati kwa ine, ‘Munthu amene udzaona Mzimu Woyera akutsika nakhazikika pa Iye ndi amene adzabatize ndi Mzimu Woyera.’
kena niva mwi zivi, kono iye yava ni tumi kwiza kukoloveza ni menzi wawamba kwangu, 'Kozo yete uvone Luhuho ni lushemukela hali ni kwikala hali, njeye yo koloveza mu Luhuho lu Jolola.'
34 Ine ndaona ndipo ndikuchitira umboni kuti uyu ndi Mwana wa Mulungu.”
Niva voni vonse niku paka kuti uzu nji mwana wa Ireeza.”
