1 John 3
1 Behold, how great love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called the children of God! For this reason, the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
Kitaenyo no ania a kita ti panagayat ti impaay kadatayo ti Ama, nga uray la naawagantayo iti annak ti Dios, ken daytoy ti kinasiasinotayo! Gapu iti daytoy, saannatayo nga am-ammo ti lubong, gapu ta saan isuna nga am-ammo ti lubong.
2 Beloved, now are we the children of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Ay-ayatek, ita ket annaknatayon ti Dios, ken saanpay a naiparangarang no anianto ti pagbalinantayo. Ammotayo nga inton agparang ni Cristo, agbalintayonto a kas kenkuana, ta makitatayonto isuna iti kinasiasinona.
3 And every one that has this hope in Him purifies himself, even as He is pure.
Ken amin nga addaan iti kastoy a kinatalged kenkuana maipanggep iti masakbayan ket paspasin-awenna ti bagina a kas met kenkuana a nasin-aw.
4 Every one that works sin, works also transgression of law: and sin is transgression of law.
Amin nga agtultuloy iti panagbasol ket agar-aramid iti aramid nga awanan-linteg. Ta ti basol ket kinaawan-linteg.
5 And you know that he was manifested, that he might take away our sins; and in him there is no sin.
Ammoyo a ni Cristo ket naipakaammo tapno mangikkat kadagiti basbasol. Ket kenkuana, awan ti basol.
6 Whoever abides in him, sins not. Whoever sins, has neither seen him nor known him.
Awan ti agtalinaed kenkuana nga agtultuloy iti panagbasol. Awan ti siasinoman nga agtultuloy nga agbasbasol a nakakita kenkuana wenno nakaam-amo kenkuana.
7 Little children, let no one deceive you: he that works righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Patpatgek nga annak, saanyo nga itulok nga adda mangiyaw-awan kadakayo. Isuna nga agar-aramid iti kinalinteg ket nalinteg, a kas kenni Cristo a nalinteg.
8 He that works sin is of the devil, for the devil sins from the beginning: for this purpose was the son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Isuna nga agar-aramid iti basol ket kukua ti diablo, ta ti diablo ket nagbasol manipud idi punganay. Daytoy ti makagapu a naiparangarang ti Anak ti Dios, tapno dadaelenna dagiti trabaho ti diablo.
9 Whoever has been begotten of God does not work sin; because his seed remains in him: and he can not sin, because he has been begotten of God.
Siasinoman a naipasngay iti Dios ket saan nga agbasol, gapu ta agtaltalinaed kenkuana ti bukel ti Dios. Saan isuna a makapagtultuloy nga agbasol, gapu ta naipasngay isuna iti Dios.
10 By this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil. Whoever does not work righteousness is not of God; neither is he that loves not his brother.
Iti daytoy, dagiti annak ti Dios ken dagiti annak ti diablo ket naiparangarang. Siasinoman a saan a mangaramid iti nalinteg ket saan a naggapu iti Dios, uray ti saan a mangay-ayat iti kabsatna.
11 For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
Ta daytoy ti mensahe a nangngeganyo manipud idi punganay, a masapul nga agiinnayattayo,
12 Not as Cain, who was of the wicked one, and slew his brother: and for what reason did he slay him? because his own works were evil, and his brother’s, righteous.
saan a kas kenni Cain a kukua ti diablo ken nangpatay iti kabsatna a lalaki. Ken apay a pinatayna isuna? Gapu ta dagiti aramidna ket dakes, ket dagiti aramid ti kabsatna a lalaki ket nalinteg.
13 Wonder not, my brethren, if the world hates you.
Saankayo nga agsiddaaw, kakabsatko, no kaguradakayo ti lubong.
14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren: he that loves not his brother, abides in death.
Ammotayo a nakalasattayon manipud iti patay ket addatayon iti biag, gapu ta ay-ayatentayo dagiti kakabsat. Siasinoman a saan nga agayat ket agtalinaed iti patay.
15 Whoever hates his brother, is a murderer: and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
Siasinoman a manggura iti kabsatna ket mammapatay. Ket ammoyo a ti agnanayon a biag ket saan nga agtalinaed iti mammapatay. (aiōnios g166)
16 By this we know the love of Christ, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
Babaen iti daytoy nga ammotayo ti ayat, gapu ta inted ni Cristo ti biagna gapu kadatayo. Rebbengtayo met ngarud nga ipaay dagiti biagtayo para kadagiti kakabsat.
17 Whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother have need, and shuts his heart against him, how dwells the love of God in him?
Ngem kasano a maibaga nga adda ti ayat ti Dios iti siasinoman nga addaan kadagiti banbanag iti lubong a makakita iti kabsatna nga agkasapulan, ngem iserrana met ti manangngaasi a pusona iti agkasapulan iti tulongna?
18 My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in truth.
Patpatgek nga annak, saantayo nga agayat iti sao laeng wenno iti dila, ngem iti aramid ken kinapudno.
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth; and we shall have our hearts at rest before him:
Babaen iti daytoy nga ammotayo nga addatayo iti kinapudno ken patalgedentayo ti pusotayo iti sanggoananna.
20 for if our heart condemn us, we know that God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Gapu ta no akusarannatayo ti pusotayo, dakdakkel ti Dios ngem ti pusotayo, ken ammona ti amin a banag.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have confidence toward God,
Ay-ayatek, no saannatayo nga akusaran dagiti pusotayo, addaantayo iti kinatalged iti Dios.
22 and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments, and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Ken aniaman a dawatentayo ket awatentayo manipud kenkuana, gapu ta tungtungpalentayo dagiti bilinna ken ar-aramidentayo dagiti banbanag a makaay-ayo iti imatangna.
23 And this is his commandment: That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
Ken daytoy ti bilinna, a masapul a mamatitayo iti nagan ti Anakna a ni Jesu-Cristo ken agiinnayattayo - gapu ta intedna kadatayo daytoy a bilin.
24 And he that keeps his commandments abides in him, and he in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.
Isuna a mangtungtungpal kadagiti bilbilin ti Dios ket agtalinaed kenkuana, ken agtaltalinaed ti Dios kenkuana. Ken babaen iti daytoy nga ammotayo nga agtaltalinaed isuna kadatayo, babaen iti Espiritu nga intedna kadatayo.
