1 Johana 1
1 Wandikonu kuom Wach mar ngima, mane nitie nyaka aa chakruok, ma wasewinjo kendo waseneno gi wengewa, kendo waserange maber mi wamule gi lwetewa.
It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.
2 Ngimani nofwenyore mine wanene, omiyo wawuoyo kuome, kendo wanyisou wach ngima mochwere mane nigi Wuoro kendo mane onyiswa. (aiōnios g166)
And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios g166)
3 Wanyisou gima waseneno kendo winjo, mondo un bende ubed e achiel kodwa e lalruok. To lalruok marwa ni e kindwa gi Wuoro kod Wuode, Yesu Kristo.
It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Wandikonu wachni mondo morwa obed mogundho kendo moromo chuth.
And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 Puonj mane wayudo kuom Kristo kendo koro wanyisou ema: Nyasaye en ler, kendo mudho onge kuome kata matin.
This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.
6 Omiyo ka wawacho ni wan e winjruok kode to pod wawuotho e mudho to wariambo kendo ok wawuothi e adiera.
If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.
7 To ka wawuotho e ler, kaka en bende enie ler to wan e lalruok ngʼato gi ngʼato, kendo remb Yesu Wuode pwodhowa kuom richowa duto.
But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.
8 Ka wawacho ni waonge richo, to wawuondore kendwa wawegi, kendo adiera onge e chunywa.
If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
9 To ka wahulo richowa, to oweyonwagi kendo opwodhowa kuom timbe duto ma ok odhi kare nikech en Ja-adiera kendo otimo gima kare.
But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.
10 Ka wawacho ni pok watimo richo to wamiyo odoko ja-miriambo kendo wachne onge gi thuolo e ngimawa.
If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.
