1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
Tulamulembelenga sha liswi lyeshikupa buyumi. Pakutatika twalalinyumfwa ne kulibona ne menso etu. Nicakubinga twalalibona kayi twalalikata ne makasa etu.
2 (and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the consummmate (aiōnios g166) life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);
Buyumi ubu mpobwalabonekela, twalabubona, weco tulamwinshibishinga ne kumusansulwila sha buyumi butapu bwalikuba ne Bata kayi bwalabonekela kulinjafwe. (aiōnios g166)
3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
Ico ncotwalabona nekunyumfwa encotulamukambaukilinga kwambeti nenjamwe mube kulubasu lwetu mbuli bana ba Lesa kayi ne mwanendi Yesu Klistu.
4 And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
Tulamulembelenga makani awa kwambeti kusangalala kwetu kube kwancine ncine.
5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Lino mulumbe ngotwalanyumfwa kumwanendi ne kumukambaukila niwakwambeti Lesa emumuni kayi kuliyawa mushinshe muli endiye.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and do not tell the truth.
Twambeti tuli ne Lesa nkakuli bwikalo bwetu nibwa mushinshe, ekwambeti tobandemi shibili mukwamba ne minshilo yetu.
7 But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
Lino na tulekalanga mu mumuni mbuli endiye ncali mu mumuni ekwambeti tuli pamo nendiye kayi ne milopa ya Yesu mwanendi ikute kutuswepesha kubwipishi.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Lino na tulambangeti tuliya bwipishi, tulalibepenga tobene kayi tuliya cakubinga.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Nsombi natulambeti toba bwipishi, Lesa washomeka kayi walulama, ngautulekelela bwipishi bwetu ne kutufunya ku bwipishi bulibonse.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Natulambeti tuliya bwipishi ekwambeti tulambangeti Lesa nimubepeshi kayi maswi akendi nkalipo mulinjafwe.
