1 John 1
1 What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we looked upon, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
Keresete o ne a ntse a le teng fa lefatshe le simologa, le gone nna ke mmonye ka matlho a me ka bo ka mo reetsa a bua. Ke mo amile ka diatla tsa me. Ene ka sebele ke molaetsa wa Botshelo wa Modimo.
2 (and the life was made known, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father, and was made known to us), (aiōnios g166)
Ene yo, yo e leng Botshelo jo bo tswang kwa Modimong re ne ra mmontshiwa, jalo re supa gore re mmonye: ke bua kaga Keresete, yo e leng Botshelo jo bo sa khutleng. O ne a na le Rara mme ra mmontshiwa. (aiōnios g166)
3 what we have seen and heard we also declare to you, so that ye also may have fellowship with us. Even also our fellowship with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
Gape ka re, re lo bolelela ka se rona re se bonyeng tota ra bo ra se utlwa, gore lo tle lo nne le seabe mo bolekaneng le mo boitumelong jo re nang najo mo Modimong le mo go Jesu Keresete MorwaOne.
4 And we write these things to you, so that our joy may be made full.
Mme fa lo dira jaaka ke bua mo lokwalong lo, le lona lo tlaa tlala boitumelo, mme le rona re tlaa itumela.
5 And this is the message that we have heard from him and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
O ke molaetsa o Modimo o o re neetseng go o lo bolelela: gore Modimo ke lesedi mme mo go One ga go na lefifi gotlhelele.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.
Jalo fa re re re ditsala tsa one, mme re tswelela re nna mo lefifing la semowa le mo sebeng, re bua maaka.
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from every sin.
Mme fa re nna mo leseding la Modimo, fela jaaka Keresete a dira, hong re na le bolekane jo bo hakgamatsang le boitumelo yo mongwe mo go yo mongwe, mme madi a ga Jesu Morwa One a re tlhapisa mo boleong bongwe le bongwe.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us.
Fa re re ga re na boleo, re a itsietsa, ebile re gana go amogela boammaaruri.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous so that he will forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from every unrighteousness.
Mme fa re ipolela dibe tsa rona mo go One, o ka ikanngwa go re itshwarela le go re tlhapisa mo tshiamololong nngwe le nngwe. (Ebile go tshwanetse Modimo sentle thata go re direla jaana gonne Keresete o swetse go tlosa dibe tsa rona).
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Fa re re ga re a leofa, re bua maaka ebile re bitsa Modimo moaki, gonne wa re re leofile.
