< 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.
Children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the one who is 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.
He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
3 Twajitichisyaga Malajisyo ga Akunnungu, pelepo, tukukombola kuimanyilila isyene kuti tukwamanyilila Akunnungu.
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 know God,” but does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not 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, truly, in him truly the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that we are in him:
6 Mundu jwakusala kuti alumbikene ni Akunnungu, atameje mpela iŵatamaga Che Yesu nsyene.
whoever says that he remains in God should himself also walk just as 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.
Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment that you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that you 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 Christ 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.
The one who says that he is in the light and hates his brother is in the darkness until now.
10 Ni mundu jwalijose jwakunnonyela nlongo njakwe, jwelejo akutama mu lulanga, nombe munkati mwakwe ngapagwa chindu chachikwatendekasya ŵandu ŵane atende sambi.
The one who loves his brother remains in the light and there is no occasion 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 the one who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness; he 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, dear children, because your sins are forgiven because of his name.
13 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achatati ligongo mummanyi Kilisito juŵaliji kutyochela kundanda. Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe achachanda ligongo mumpundile Shetani.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you know the one who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, little children, because you 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 know the one who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
15 Nkachinonyela chilambo atamuno chachilichose chachili mu chilambo. Iŵaga mundu akuchinonyela chilambo ngaakombola kwanonyela Akunnungu Atati ŵetu.
Do not love the world nor the things that are in the world. If anyone loves 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 everything that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the arrogance of life—is not from the Father but is from the world.
17 Chilambo ni indu yakuilajila ŵandu ikupita, nambo mundu jwakuipanganya yaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu, jwelejo chatame moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōn )
The world and its desire are passing away. But whoever does the will of God will remain 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.
Little children, it is the last hour. Just as you heard that the antichrist is coming, now many antichrists have come. By this we 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 went out from us, but they were not from us. For if they had been from us they would have remained with us. But when they went out, that showed they were not from 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 did not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it and because no lie is from 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 but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? That person is the antichrist, since he denies the Father and the Son.
23 Mundu jwakunkana Mwana iyoyo akunkana Atati nombe, ni mundu jwakunjitichisya Mwana iyoyo akunjitichisya Atati nombe.
No one who denies the Son has the Father. 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.
As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If what you heard from the beginning remains in you, you will also remain in the Son and in the Father.
25 Achi ni chilanga chaatulanjile Kilisito, chaatupe umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
This is the promise he gave to us—eternal life. (aiōnios )
26 Nanlembele ŵanyamwe gelega nkati ŵandu ŵakusaka kunlyungasya ŵanyamwe.
I have written these things to you about 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 for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you everything and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, remain in him.
28 Sambano achiŵanangu, nlonjele nkulumbikana nawo kuti katema kachauje ngatujogopa ni ngatukola soni paujo pao lyuŵa lyakwika kwakwe.
Now, dear children, remain in him, so that when he appears, we will have boldness 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 that everyone who does what is right has been born from him.
