< 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.
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born from God, and whoever loves a father also loves the child born from him.
2 Yeleyi ni yatuimanyi kuti tukwanonyela ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu, apala patukwanonyela Akunnungu ni kugakunda malajisyo gakwe.
Because of this we know that we love God's children, when we love God and do his commandments.
3 Pakuŵa kwanonyela Akunnungu kuli kugajitichisya malajisyo gakwe. Ni malajisyo gakwe ngagakulimba,
For this is love for God: that we 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.
For everyone who is born from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
5 Ana, nduni jwakukombola kuchipunda chigongomalo cha pachilambo? Ali jwejula pe jwakukulupilila kuti Che Yesu ali Mwana jwa Akunnungu.
Who is the one who overcomes the world? The one 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 the one who came by water and blood: Jesus Christ. He came not only by water, but also by water and blood.
7 Pakuŵa apali ŵaumboni ŵatatu.
For there are three who bear witness:
8 Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni meesi ni miasi, wose ŵatatu akuŵalanga umboni waukwilana.
the Spirit, the water, and the blood. These three are in agreement.
9 Twaukundaga umboni wa ŵandu, umboni wa Akunnungu uli wekulu nnope kupunda wa ŵandu, ni umboni wauŵalasile Akunnungu nkati Mwanagwe uli wausyene.
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For the testimony of God is this, that he has borne witness concerning 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.
Anyone who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the witness that God has given concerning his Son.
11 Umboni wene ni au, Akunnungu ŵatupele umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ni umi wo ukupatikana kwa Mwanagwe. (aiōnios g166)
And the witness is this: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Mundu jwalijose jwali Mwana jwa Akunnungu akwete umi wo, ni mundu jwangaŵa Mwana jwa Akunnungu nganakola umi wo.
The one who has the Son has life. The one who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
13 Ngunlembela ŵanyamwe aga, kuti mmanyilile yakuti nkwete umi wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi, ŵanyamwe ŵankunkulupilila Mwana jwa Akunnungu. (aiōnios g166)
I have written to you these things so that you will know that you have eternal life—to you who believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Ni tukwima pangali kuogopa paujo pa Akunnungu, pakuŵa twaŵendaga chindu chachilichose mpela yakuti pakusaka akutupilikanila.
Also, this is the confidence we have before 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.
Also, if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask of him—we know that we have whatever we have asked of 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 anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not result in death, he must pray, and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not result in death. There is a sin that results in death; I am not saying that he should pray about that.
17 Ipanganyo yose yangaikwanonyelesya Akunnungu ili sambi, nambo sipali sambi sine syangasikunjausya mundu ku chiwa.
All unrighteousness is sin, but there is sin that does not result in 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 whoever is born from God does not sin. But the one who was born from God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.
19 Tukumanyilila kuti uweji tuli ŵanache ŵa Akunnungu namuno chilambo chose chikulongoswa ni Jwachigongomalo.
We know that we are from God, and we know that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
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 g166)
But we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. Also, we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This one is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Achiŵanangu nlilolechesye ni achiminungu jaunami.
Children, keep yourselves from idols.
