1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have witnessed with our eyes, that which we contemplated and our hands handled with reference to the word of the Life
Mambu momo maba vana thonono, momo tuwa, momo tumona mu mesometo, momo tutala ayi momo tusimba mu mioko mieto, momo matedi mambu mamvananga luzingu mawu tueti samuna.
2 —oh yes, the Life was manifested, and we have seen and testify and declare to you that eternal Life who was in the presence of the Father and was manifested to us— (aiōnios g166)
Luzingu lutotuka. Beto tumona luawu ayi tulembo yolukila luawu ayi lulembo kulusanunina luzingu lu kalumani, lolo luba kuidi Tata ayi lolobatumonisa. (aiōnios g166)
3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, so that you also may have fellowship with us; indeed, our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ.
Momo tumona ayi tuwa mawu tukulusamunina muingi beno mamveno luba mu kithuadi ayi beto; muaki kithuadi kieto kidi mu Tata ayi mu muanꞌandi Yesu Klisto.
4 Yes, we write these things to you so that our joy may be fulfilled.
Ayi tulusonikini mambu mama mu diambu di khini eno yiba yiduka.
5 Now this is the message that we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and there is no darkness at all in Him.
Tala mawu mama mambu tuwa kuidi niandi ayi tulembo kulusamunina: Nzambi widi kiezila ayi mu niandi muisi kadi tombi ko.
6 If we claim that we have fellowship with Him while walking in the darkness, we are lying and not living the truth.
Enati tulembo tubi ti tuidi mu kithuadi ayi niandi vayi tulembodiatila mu tombi, buna tulembu vuni ayi tusadilanga kiedika ko.
7 But if we walk in the light just 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.
Vayi enati tundiatila mu kiezila banga niandi veka bukadidi mu kiezila, buna tuidi mu kithuadi kimosi ayi buna menga ma Yesu Klisto, muanꞌandi, meti kutuvedisa mu moso ka masumu.
8 If we claim that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the Truth is not in us.
Enati tulembo tubi ti tuisi ko masumu, buna tulembo kukivuni beto veka ayi kiedika kisi ko mu beto.
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous so as to forgive us those sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Muaki enati tulembo kikinina masumu meto, niandi widi wukuikamaayi wusonga mu kutulemvukilanga masumu meto ayi mu kutuvedisa mu yoso ka mbimbi.
10 If we claim that we have not sinned, we call Him a liar and His Word is not in us.
Enati tulembo tubi ti tuisia vola ko masumu; buna tulembo kitula Nzambi nkua luvunu ayi mambu mandi masi ko mu beto.
