< 1 Johan 1 >
1 Te tah a tongcuek lamkah aka om tih te te n'yaak uh. Te te mamih mik neh n'sawt uh coeng. Te te m'hmuh uh phoeiah mamih kut loh a phathuep hingnah Olka kawng ni.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the word of life:
2 Hingnah long tah ha phoe ngawn coeng. Te vaengah dungyan hingnah te ka hmuh uh tih ka phong uh vanbangla nangmih taengah ka puen uh. Te tah pa taengah om tih mamih taengah ha phoe coeng. (aiōnios )
For the life was manifested; and we have seen and do bear witness, and declare unto you the life eternal, which was with the Father, and hath appeared to us: (aiōnios )
3 Te te ka hmuh uh tih ka yaak uh dongah ni nangmih taengah khaw ka puen uh. Te daengah ni nangmih khaw kaimih taengah rhoinaengnah, pa neh mamih, a capa Jesuh Khrih neh rhoinaengnah te khaw na khueh uh eh.
That which we have seen and have heard, we declare unto you, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship may be with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 Hekah he khaw kaimih kah omngaihnah soep sak ham ni kaimih loh ka daek uh.
And these things we write to you, that you may rejoice, and your joy may be full.
5 He kah olthang aka om he amah lamloh ka yaak uh tih nangmih taengah ka puen uh. Pathen tah vangnah la om tih a khuiah a hmuep om loengloeng pawh.
And this is the declaration which we have heard from him, and declare unto you: That God is light, and in him there is no darkness.
6 Amah neh rhoinaengnah n'khueh uh tila n'thui uh tih yinnah khuiah m'pongpa uh atah n'laithae uh tih oltak n'saii moenih.
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.
7 Tedae amah loh vangnah khuiah a om vanbangla vangnah khuiah m'pongpa uh atah, khat neh khat taengah rhoinaengnah ng'khueh uh. Te vaengah a capa Jesuh kah thii loh mamih he tholhnah cungkuem lamloh n'cilpoe coeng.
But if we walk in the light, as he also is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 Tholhnah n'khueh uh moenih tila n'thui uh atah amah la n'rhaithi uh dongah oltak loh mamih khuiah om pawh.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Mamih kah tholhnah te m'phong uh atah amah khaw uepom la om tih a dueng dongah mamih kah tholhnah te a hlah tih boethae cungkuem lamkah mamih n'cilpoe.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all iniquity.
10 Ka tholh uh pawh tila n'thui uh atah amah laithae m'pup uh tih a olka loh mamih khuiah om pawh.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
