1 Yohana 2
1 Achiŵanangu ŵakunonyelwa, ngunlembela maloŵe ga, kuti nkatenda sambi. Iŵaga jwalijose atesile sambi, tukwete nkamusi jwakutupopelela kwa Akunnungu Atati pamalo petu, jwele ali Che Yesu Kilisito, jwali jwambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you won’t sin. If anyone sins, we have an Intercessor with the Father, the righteous Jesus Christ.
2 Kilisito nsyene ali mbopesi jajityochekwe kwa ligongo lya kulecheleswa sambi syetu, ni ngaŵa kwa sambi syetu pe, nambo iyoyo kwa ligongo lya sambi sya ŵandu wose ŵaali pachilambo.
He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.
3 Twajitichisyaga Malajisyo ga Akunnungu, pelepo, tukukombola kuimanyilila isyene kuti tukwamanyilila Akunnungu.
This is how we know that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments.
4 Mundu jwakuti akwamanyilila Akunnungu, nambo ngakugajitichisya malajisyo gakwe, jwele mundu ali jwaunami ni usyene nganiupagwa munkati mwakwe.
The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and doesn’t keep His commandments is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.
5 Nambo jwalijose jwakwitichisya Liloŵe lya Akunnungu, unonyelo wa Akunnungu umalilwe munkati mwakwe. Kwanti yele tukukombola kumanyilila isyene kuti tukulumbikana ni Akunnungu.
But whoever keeps His word has the sincere love of God truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:
6 Mundu jwakusala kuti alumbikene ni Akunnungu, atameje mpela iŵatamaga Che Yesu nsyene.
whoever claims to live in Jesus ought to walk in the same way He walked.
7 Achambusanga ŵangu ŵangunnonyela, lilajisyo lingunlembela li ngaŵa lilajisyo lya sambano, nambo lilajisyo lya kalakala, limwaliji nalyo kutyochela kundanda. Lilajisyo lya kalakala lyo, lili utenga umwaupikene.
Brothers and sisters, I’m not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.
8 Atamuno, ngunlembela lilajisyo lya sambano, liloŵe lya usyene lili munkati mwa Kilisito iyoyopeyo likuwoneka munkati mwenu. Pakuŵa chipi chimasile ni lilanguka lya usyene litandite kulanguchisya.
Yet, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.
9 Mundu jwalijose jwakuti akutama mu lilanguka nambo akunchima nlongo njakwe, mundu jo akutama mu chipi mpaka lelo jino.
Whoever claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister, is still in darkness.
10 Ni mundu jwalijose jwakunnonyela nlongo njakwe, jwelejo akutama mu lulanga, nombe munkati mwakwe ngapagwa chindu chachikwatendekasya ŵandu ŵane atende sambi.
Whoever sincerely loves his brothers and sisters lives in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.
11 Nambo mundu jwalijose jwakunchima nlongo njakwe jwelejo akutama muchipi, ni akwenda muchipi, ngakukumanyilila kwakwaula, ligongo chipi chatuswile meeso gakwe.
But whoever hates a brother or sister is in darkness and walks in darkness, and doesn’t know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
12 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe ŵanache ligongo nnecheleswe sambi syenu kwa litala lya aila yaitesile Kilisito.
I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for His name’s sake.
13 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achatati ligongo mummanyi Kilisito juŵaliji kutyochela kundanda. Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achachanda ligongo mumpundile Shetani.
I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.
14 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe ŵanache pakuŵa mummanyi Akunnungu Atati ŵetu. Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achatati, pakuŵa mummanyi Kilisito juŵaliji kutyochela kundanda. Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achachanda ligongo nkwete machili ni Liloŵe lya Akunnungu likutama nkati mwenu, ni ŵanyamwe mumpundile Jwangalumbana jula.
I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
15 Nkachinonyela chilambo atamuno chachilichose chachili mu chilambo. Iŵaga mundu akuchinonyela chilambo ngaakombola kwanonyela Akunnungu Atati ŵetu.
Don’t sincerely love the world or the things in the world. If anyone sincerely loves the world, the sincere love of the Father isn’t in him.
16 Pakuŵa indu yose yaili pachilambo, mpela ila tama sya chiilu syangalumbana simpagwile nasyo ni tama ja indu yaikulolecheka kwa meeso, ni kulifunila ipanje inkwete, yele yose ngaikutyochela kwa Akunnungu Atati ŵetu nambo ikutyochela pachilambo.
For everything that is in the world - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life - isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.
17 Chilambo ni indu yakuilajila ŵandu ikupita, nambo mundu jwakuipanganya yaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu, jwelejo chatame moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn g165)
The world and its lusts are passing away, but whoever does the will of God stays forever. (aiōn g165)
18 Achiŵanangu, aka kali katema kambesi. Mpela imwatite kupilikana kuti chaiche jwakunkanila Kilisito, ni sambano ŵakwakanila Kilisito aikangene achajinji. Ni kwayele tukuimanyilila kuti akano kali katema kambesi.
Little children, we are in the end times. As you have heard the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. By this we know that we are in the end times.
19 Ŵandu wo ŵatyochele pasikati jetu, nambo nganaŵa mu mpingo wetu pakuŵa akaliji mu mpingo wetu, akasigalile ni uweji. Nambo ŵatulesile, kuti ilolechele pangasisika kuti nganaŵa mu mpingo wetu.
They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. Instead, they went out so that it might be revealed that none of them belonged to us.
20 Nambo ŵanyamwe mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni Kilisito ni wose nkuumanyilila usyene.
But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know the truth.
21 Ngunnembela ŵanyamwe ngaŵa pakuŵa ngankuumanyilila usyene, nambo ligongo nkuumanyilila ni sooni nkuimanyilila yakuti, unami wauli wose ngaukutyochela mu usyene.
I write to you, not because you don’t know the truth, but because you do know it, and because you know that no lie belongs to the truth.
22 Ana nduni jwaali jwaunami? Ŵandu ŵakukanila kuti Che Yesu nganaŵa Kilisito. Ŵandu mpela ŵelewo ali ŵammagongo ŵa Kilisito, pakuŵa akunkana Akunnungu Atati ŵetu pamo ni Mwana.
Who is a liar? Whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Whoever denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.
23 Mundu jwakunkana Mwana iyoyo akunkana Atati nombe, ni mundu jwakunjitichisya Mwana iyoyo akunjitichisya Atati nombe.
Whoever denies the Son doesn’t have the Father either. Whoever acknowledges the Son also has the Father.
24 Nipele, utenga umwaupilikene chitandile kundanda utame mmitima jenu. Utenga wo watamaga mmitima jenu, nipele, ŵanyamwe chinlonjele nkulumbikana ni Mwana ni Atati.
Therefore, let that which you heard from the beginning live in you. If what you heard from the beginning lives in you, you also will live in the Son and in the Father.
This is the promise that He has promised to us - eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Nanlembele ŵanyamwe gelega nkati ŵandu ŵakusaka kunlyungasya ŵanyamwe.
I have written these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you.
27 Nambo ŵanyamwe, mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu kutyochela kwa Kilisito. Nombejo akwendelechela kutama munkati mwenu, kwayele ngankulajila mundu anjiganye. Pakuŵa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akunjiganya indu yose, ni majiganyo gakwe gali ga usyene, ni nganigaŵa ga unami. Nipele ngakamulichisye majiganyo ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni kulonjela nkulumbikana ni Kilisito.
As for you, the anointing that you received from Him lives in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. Yet as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and not a lie; just as it has taught you, you live in Him.
28 Sambano achiŵanangu, nlonjele nkulumbikana nawo kuti katema kachauje ngatujogopa ni ngatukola soni paujo pao lyuŵa lyakwika kwakwe.
Now, little children, live in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming.
29 Nkumanyilila kuti Kilisito ali jwakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, iyoyo mmanyilile kuti ŵandu ŵakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, ŵelewo ali ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu.
If you know that He is righteous, then know that everyone who also practices righteousness is born of Him.
