1 Yohana 3
1 Nnole yatite kutunonyela Atati, mpaka tukuŵilanjikwa ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu, noweji ni yatuli. Kwaligongo lyo ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pa ngaakutumanyilila, pakuŵa nganiŵamanyilila Akunnungu.
Behold what love has given to us the Father, that children of God we may be called — (and we are! *NO*) Because of this the world not knows (us, *NK(O)*) because not it knew Him.
2 Achambusanga ŵangu, sambano uweji tuli ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu, nambo nginiŵe kumanyika chituŵe ŵanti uli. Nambo tukwimanyilila yakuti pachachiika Kilisito, chitulandane nawo pakuŵa chitwawone uŵele waali nawo.
Beloved, now children of God are we, and not yet has been revealed what we will be; We know (now *k*) that when He shall appear, like Him we will be, for we will behold Him even as He is.
3 Nipele, jwalijose jwakulolela kwawona Kilisito aliswejesye, mpela ila Kilisito nsyene yatite kuswejela.
And everyone who is having hope this in Him purifies himself even as He pure is.
4 Mundu jwalijose jwakutenda sambi ngakulikamulisya lilajisyo lya Akunnungu, pakuŵa kutenda sambi kuli kuleka kukamulisya lilajisyo.
Everyone who is committing sin also lawlessness commits, and sin is lawlessness.
5 Nkumanyilila kuti Kilisito ŵaiche kuti asityosye sambi syetu, nombewo nganakola sambi syasili syose.
And you know that He appeared so that the sins (of us *K*) He may take away, and sin in Him not there is.
6 Kwayele mundu jwalumbikene ni Kilisito ngakwendelechela kutendekanya sambi. Nambo jwakwendelechela kutendekanya sambi nganaŵe kwawona ŵelewo atamuno kwamanyilila.
Anyone in Him abiding not sins; anyone who is sinning not has seen Him nor has he known Him.
7 Achiŵanangu, mundu jwalijose ngasanlyungasya. Mundu jwakutenda ipanganyo yambone, mundu jo akwanonyelesya Akunnungu mpela ila Kilisito yatite kwanonyelesya Akunnungu.
(little children, *NK(o)*) no one should lead astray you; who are practicing righteousness righteous is even as He righteous is.
8 Mundu jwalijose jwakwendelechela kutendekanya sambi jwelejo ali jwa Shetani, pakuŵa Shetani atesile sambi chitandile kundanda. Kwa ligongo li, Mwana jwa Akunnungu ŵaiche pachilambo kukugajonanga masengo ga Shetani.
The [one] practicing sin of the devil is, because from [the] beginning the devil has been sinning. For this [reason] was revealed the Son of God so that He may destroy the works of the devil.
9 Mundu jwalijose jwaali mwanache jwa Akunnungu ngakwendelechela kutendekanya sambi, pakuŵa umi wa Akunnungu ukutama munkati mwakwe, kwapele ngaakukombola kuendelechela kutendekanya sambi ligongo Akunnungu ali Atati ŵao.
Anyone who born of God sin not practices, because seed of Him in him abides; and not he is able to continue sinning, because of God he has been born.
10 Mundu jwalijose jwangakupanganya yambone paujo pa Akunnungu, pane jwangakunnonyela nlongo njakwe, jwelejo nganaŵa mwanache jwa Akunnungu. Yele ni yakuti pakumanyika ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu ni ŵanache ŵa Shetani.
Through this manifest are the children of God and the children of the devil. Anyone not practicing righteousness not is of God, and also the [one] not loving the brother of him;
11 Pakuŵa ngani jimwajipikene chitandile kundanda ni aji: Tunonyelane jwine ni jwine.
For this is the message that you have heard from [the] beginning that we may love one another;
12 Tukaŵa mpela che Kaini juŵalongweswe ni Shetani ni kumbulaga che Abeli mpwakwe. Kwa chichi ŵammuleje? Ligongo ipanganyo yao yaliji yangalumbana ni mpwakwe ŵaliji ni ipanganyo yambone paujo pa Akunnungu.
not even as Cain [who] of the evil [one] was and he slew the brother of him; And because of what he slayed him? Because the works of him evil were, those however of the brother of him righteous.
13 Achalongo achinjangu nkasimonga naga ŵandu ŵa pachilambo pa akunchima.
(And *n*) not do be surprised, brothers (of mine *K*) if hates you the world.
14 Uweji tukwimanyilila yakuti tupitile kutyochela mu chiwa ni kwinjila mu umi, pakuŵa tukwanonyela achalongo achinjetu. Mundu jwanganakola unonyelo akutama mmachili ga chiwa.
We ourselves know that we have passed from death to life, because we love [our] brothers; The [one] not loving (the brother *K*) abides in death.
15 Mundu jwalijose jwakunchima njakwe ali jwauulasi ni ŵanyamwe nkwimanyilila, jwauulasi nganakola umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi munkati mwakwe. (aiōnios g166)
Everyone who is hating the brother of him a murderer is; and you know that any murderer not has life eternal in (him *NK(o)*) abiding. (aiōnios g166)
16 Yeleyi ni yatukuti pakuumanyilila unonyelo yauli, pakuŵa Kilisito ŵautyosisye umi wao kwa ligongo lyetu. Noweji tukuŵajilwa kuutyosya umi wetu kwaligongo lya kwakamuchisya achalongo achinjetu.
By this we have known love because He for us the life of Him laid down; and we ourselves ought for [our] brothers [our] lives (to lay down. *N(k)O*)
17 Nambo mundu akolaga chipanje cha pachilambo, ni kummona mpwakwe akwete yaikwasoŵa, nombejo ngakwakolela chanasa, ana mundu jo akukombola chinauli kusala akwanonyela Akunnungu?
Who[ever] now maybe may have the goods of the world and may see the brother of him need having and he may close up the heart of him from him, how the love of God abides in him?
18 Achiŵanangu, tuleche kwanonyela ŵandu kwa maloŵe pe, nambo twanonyele kwa kwalosya isambo.
Little children (of mine *K*) not we may love in word nor in tongue but in action and in truth.
19 Yeleyi ni yatukuti pakumanyilila kuti uweji tuli ŵa usyene ni mitima jetu nganijikola lipamba paujo pa Akunnungu.
And by this (we will know *N(k)O*) that of the truth we are and before Him we will assure (heart *N(k)O*) of us,
20 Pakuŵa atamuno mitima jetu ngajikutulamula kuti tuleŵile, tukwimanyilila kuti Akunnungu ali jwankulu kujipunda mitima jetu, nombeŵo akwimanyilila indu yose.
that if shall condemn [us] our heart, that greater than is the God of the heart of us and He knows all things.
21 Achambusanga ŵangu naga mitima jetu ngajikutulamula kuti tuleŵile, nipele nganitukola lipamba paujo pa Akunnungu.
Beloved, if the heart of us not shall condemn (us *ko*) confidence we have toward God,
22 Ni chilichose chatukuŵenda kukwao tukupochela, pakuŵa tukwitichisya malajisyo gao ni kuipanganya yaikwanonyelesya.
and whatever (maybe *NK(o)*) we shall ask we receive (from *N(k)O*) Him, because the commandments of Him we keep and the [things] pleasing before Him we do.
23 Ni lilajisyo lyao lili lyeleli, tulikulupilile lina lya Che Yesu Kilisito, Mwanagwe ni kunonyelana jwine ni jwine mpela yatite pakutulajisya.
And this is the commandment of Him that (we may believe *NK(o)*) in the name of the Son of Him Jesus Christ and we may love one another even as He gave [the] commandment to us.
24 Ŵandu wose ŵakwitichisya malajisyo ga Akunnungu, akutama nkulumbikana ni Akunnungu ni Akunnungu akutama nkulumbikana ni ŵandu wo. Tukumanyilila yeleyo kuti Akunnungu akutama nkulumbikana ni uwe kwa litala lya Mbumu jwa Akunnungu jwatupele.
And the [one] keeping the commandments of Him in Him abides, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom to us He has given.
