< 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 children, I am writing this to you that you may not continue to sin; but if any one sin, we ever have a Comforter before the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous.
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.
And he is the propitiation 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 may know that we have come to know Him, by always keeping his commandments.
4 Mundu jwakuti akwamanyilila Akunnungu, nambo ngakugajitichisya malajisyo gakwe, jwele mundu ali jwaunami ni usyene nganiupagwa munkati mwakwe.
He who says, "I know Him," but does no continue obeying his commandments, is a liar,
5 Nambo jwalijose jwakwitichisya Liloŵe lya Akunnungu, unonyelo wa Akunnungu umalilwe munkati mwakwe. Kwanti yele tukukombola kumanyilila isyene kuti tukulumbikana ni Akunnungu.
and the truth is not in him; bit if any man obey his word, in him truly is the love of God made perfect. By this we come to know that we are in him.
6 Mundu jwakusala kuti alumbikene ni Akunnungu, atameje mpela iŵatamaga Che Yesu nsyene.
By who says he "remains in him" ought to spend his life as he spent his.
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.
Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, nay, and old commandment, which you have had from the beginning. That old commandment is the message to which you have listened.
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 again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you, which is true in him and is 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.
He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 Ni mundu jwalijose jwakunnonyela nlongo njakwe, jwelejo akutama mu lulanga, nombe munkati mwakwe ngapagwa chindu chachikwatendekasya ŵandu ŵane atende sambi.
But he who loves his brother is abiding in the light, and in it there is no cause of stumbling.
11 Nambo mundu jwalijose jwakunchima nlongo njakwe jwelejo akutama muchipi, ni akwenda muchipi, ngakukumanyilila kwakwaula, ligongo chipi chatuswile meeso gakwe.
But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and is spending his life in the darkness, and does not 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 am writing to you, little children, because you sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.
13 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achatati ligongo mummanyi Kilisito juŵaliji kutyochela kundanda. Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achachanda ligongo mumpundile Shetani.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have fully overcome the Evil One. I have written to you, little children, because you have learned to know 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 learned to know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is abiding in you, and you have fully overcome the Evil One.
15 Nkachinonyela chilambo atamuno chachilichose chachili mu chilambo. Iŵaga mundu akuchinonyela chilambo ngaakombola kwanonyela Akunnungu Atati ŵetu.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not 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 all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the proud glory of life, is not from the Father, but from the world;
17 Chilambo ni indu yakuilajila ŵandu ikupita, nambo mundu jwakuipanganya yaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu, jwelejo chatame moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn )
and the world and its lusts are passing away, but he who ever does the will of God abides forever. (aiōn )
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.
My children, this is the last hour, and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming, and now many antichrists are already risen, whence we may know that it is the last hour.
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 came forth from us, but they did not belong to us. If they had belonged to us they would certainly have remained with us, but they went out that they might be manifest that they all are not of us.
20 Nambo ŵanyamwe mumpochele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni Kilisito ni wose nkuumanyilila usyene.
Now you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 Ngunnembela ŵanyamwe ngaŵa pakuŵa ngankuumanyilila usyene, nambo ligongo nkuumanyilila ni sooni nkuimanyilila yakuti, unami wauli wose ngaukutyochela mu usyene.
I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and know that no lie is of 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 the liar if not the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, even he who disowns the Father and the Son.
23 Mundu jwakunkana Mwana iyoyo akunkana Atati nombe, ni mundu jwakunjitichisya Mwana iyoyo akunjitichisya Atati nombe.
Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you.
24 Nipele, utenga umwaupilikene chitandile kundanda utame mmitima jenu. Utenga wo watamaga mmitima jenu, nipele, ŵanyamwe chinlonjele nkulumbikana ni Mwana ni Atati.
If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father.
25 Achi ni chilanga chaatulanjile Kilisito, chaatupe umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
And this is the promise which he has promised to us even life eternal. (aiōnios )
26 Nanlembele ŵanyamwe gelega nkati ŵandu ŵakusaka kunlyungasya ŵanyamwe.
I have written this to you concerning those who would lead you astray.
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 to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.
28 Sambano achiŵanangu, nlonjele nkulumbikana nawo kuti katema kachauje ngatujogopa ni ngatukola soni paujo pao lyuŵa lyakwika kwakwe.
And now continue to abide in him, my children, so that when he shall appear we may have cheerful confidence and not be ashamed before him 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 you know also that every one who habitually practises righteousness has been born of him.
