< 1 Yohana 5 >
1 Mundu jwalijose jwakukulupilila kuti Che Yesu ali Kilisito Nkulupusyo, mundu jo ali mwana jwa Akunnungu. Ni mundu jwakwanonyela atati akunnonyela ni mwanagwe nombe.
Every man who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten from God, and every man who loves him who begot, also loves him who has been begotten from him.
2 Yeleyi ni yatuimanyi kuti tukwanonyela ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu, apala patukwanonyela Akunnungu ni kugakunda malajisyo gakwe.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
3 Pakuŵa kwanonyela Akunnungu kuli kugajitichisya malajisyo gakwe. Ni malajisyo gakwe ngagakulimba,
For this is the love of God, that we may keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.
4 pakuŵa jwali mwana jwa Akunnungu akukombola kuipunda indu ya pachilambo. Nowe tukukombola kuipunda indu ya pachilambo kwa chikulupi chetu.
Because everything that has been begotten from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.
5 Ana, nduni jwakukombola kuchipunda chigongomalo cha pachilambo? Ali jwejula pe jwakukulupilila kuti Che Yesu ali Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
And who is he who overcomes the world, if not he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Che Yesu Kilisito ni juŵaiche kwa meesi katema paŵaliji nkubatiswa ni kwa miasi paŵawile. Nganaika kwa meesi pe nambo kwa meesi ni miasi. Nombe Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akuŵalanga umboni kuti ili isyene, pakuŵa Mbumu ali usyene.
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not by the water only, but by the water and the blood. And it is the Spirit that testifies, because the Spirit is truth.
7 Pakuŵa apali ŵaumboni ŵatatu.
Because those who testify are three:
8 Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni meesi ni miasi, wose ŵatatu akuŵalanga umboni waukwilana.
the Spirit, and the water, and the blood. And the three are in one.
9 Twaukundaga umboni wa ŵandu, umboni wa Akunnungu uli wekulu nnope kupunda wa ŵandu, ni umboni wauŵalasile Akunnungu nkati Mwanagwe uli wausyene.
If we accept the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. Because this is the testimony of God that he has testified about his Son.
10 Mundu jwakunkulupilila Mwana jwa Akunnungu akwete umboni wo mu ntima mwakwe. Jwangakunkulupilila Akunnungu, antesile Akunnungu ali jwa unami, pakuŵa nganaukulupilila umboni uŵauŵalasile Akunnungu nkati Mwanagwe.
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified about his Son.
11 Umboni wene ni au, Akunnungu ŵatupele umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ni umi wo ukupatikana kwa Mwanagwe. (aiōnios )
And this is the testimony, that God gave eternal life to us, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios )
12 Mundu jwalijose jwali Mwana jwa Akunnungu akwete umi wo, ni mundu jwangaŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu nganakola umi wo.
He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
13 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe aga, kuti mmanyilile yakuti nkwete umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ŵanyamwe ŵankunkulupilila Mwana jwa Akunnungu. (aiōnios )
I wrote these things to you, those who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios )
14 Ni tukwima pangali kuogopa paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa twaŵendaga chindu chachilichose mpela yakuti pakusaka akutupilikanila.
And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
15 Iŵaga tukumanyilila kuti akutupilikanila patukwaŵenda chachilichose, iyoyopeyo tukuimanyilila kuti chitupochele chachilichose chitukwaŵenda.
And if we know that he hears us, whatever we may ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked from him.
16 Iŵaga mundu ammweni nlongo njakwe ali nkutenda sambi syasikwikanasyo chiwa, ampopelele kwa Akunnungu, nombe Akunnungu champe umi. Nguŵecheta yeleyi nkati aŵala ŵatesile sambi syangasikwajausya ku chiwa. Nambo sipali sambi syasikwikanasyo chiwa, ni une ngangusala kuti ampopelele kwa Akunnungu kwa ligongo lya sambi syo.
If any man may see his brother sinning a sin not toward death, he will ask, and he will give life to him, to those not sinning toward death. There is sin toward death. I do not say that he should make request about that.
17 Ipanganyo yose yangaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu ili sambi, nambo sipali sambi sine syangasikunjausya mundu ku chiwa.
All unrighteousness is sin. And there is sin not toward death.
18 Tukwimanyilila kuti kila jwali Mwana jwa Akunnungu ngakwendelechela kutenda sambi, pakuŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu akungosa, ni ajula jwachigongomalo ngakupakombola kuntenda chachilichose.
We know that every man who has been begotten from God does not sin, but he who was begotten from God keeps himself, and the evil does not touch him.
19 Tukumanyilila kuti uweji tuli ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu namuno chilambo chose chikulongoswa ni Jwachigongomalo.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world is set in the evil.
20 Noweji tukumanyilila kuti Mwana jwa Akunnungu amasile kwika, nombejo atupele umanyilisi kuti twamanyilile Akunnungu ŵa usyene. Noweji tukutama nkulumbikana ni Akunnungu ŵali ŵa usyene kwa litala lya Mwana gwao Che Yesu Kilisito. Aŵa ali Akunnungu ŵa usyene ni awu uli umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi. (aiōnios )
And we know that the Son of God comes, and has given us understanding, so that we may know the true. And we are in the true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the eternal life. (aiōnios )
21 Achiŵanangu nlilolechesye ni achiminungu jaunami.
Little children, guard yourselves from the idols. Truly.
