1 John 2
1 My little children, these things write I vnto you, that ye sinne not: and if any man sinne, wee haue an Aduocate with the Father, Iesus Christ, the Iust.
Me mma, merekyerɛw eyi abrɛ mo na moanyɛ bɔne; na sɛ obi yɛ bɔne a, yɛwɔ Yesu Kristo ɔtreneeni no a ɔsrɛ wɔ Agya no hɔ ma yɛn.
2 And he is the reconciliation for our sinnes: and not for ours onely, but also for the sinnes of the whole world.
Na Kristo no ankasa ne yɛn bɔne ho mpata na ɛnyɛ yɛn bɔne nko, na nnipa nyinaa bɔne.
3 And hereby we are sure that we knowe him, if we keepe his commandements.
Sɛ yedi Onyankopɔn mmara so a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ yenim no.
4 Hee that saith, I knowe him, and keepeth not his commandements, is a liar, and the trueth is not in him.
Sɛ obi ka se, “Minim no,” nanso onni ne mmara so a, saa onipa no yɛ ɔtorofo a nokware nni ne mu.
5 But hee that keepeth his worde, in him is the loue of God perfect in deede: hereby wee knowe that ye are in him.
Na sɛ obi tie nʼasɛm a, na nokware dɔ a ɔde dɔ Onyankopɔn no wie pɛyɛ wɔ ne mu. Eyi na ɛma yehu sɛ yɛte ne mu.
6 He that saith he remaineth in him, ought euen so to walke, as he hath walked.
Na ɛsɛ sɛ nea ose ɔte ne mu no biara di Yesu Kristo anammɔn akyi.
7 Brethren, I write no newe commandement vnto you: but an olde commandement, which ye haue had from the beginning: this olde commandement is that worde, which yee haue heard from the beginning.
Anuanom, saa mmara a merekyerɛw abrɛ mo yi nyɛ asɛm foforo. Ɛyɛ mmara dedaw a moate fi mfiase pɛɛ no. Mmara dedaw no yɛ ade a moate ho asɛm dedaw.
8 Againe, a new comandement I write vnto you, that which is true in him, and also in you: for the darkenes is past, and that true light now shineth.
Nanso mmara a merekyerɛw abrɛ mo yi yɛ foforo na mu nokware no da adi wɔ Kristo ne mo mu. Sum no retwa mu na hann papa no gu so rehyerɛn.
9 He that saith that hee is in that light, and hateth his brother, is in darkenes, vntill this time.
Obiara a ɔka se ɔwɔ hann no mu, nanso ɔtan ne nua no wɔ sum mu besi saa dɔnhwerew yi mu.
10 Hee that loueth his brother, abideth in that light, and there is none occasion of euil in him.
Obiara a ɔdɔ ne nua no te hann mu, enti biribiara nni ne mu a ɛbɛma obi foforo ayɛ bɔne.
11 But he that hateth his brother, is in darkenesse, and walketh in darkenesse, and knoweth not whither hee goeth, because that darkenesse hath blinded his eyes.
Nanso obiara a ɔtan ne nua no te sum mu. Ɔnam mu a onnim faako a ɔrekɔ, efisɛ sum no afura nʼani.
12 Litle children, I write vnto you, because your sinnes are forgiuen you for his Names sake.
Me mma, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ esiane Kristo din nti, wɔde mo bɔne akyɛ mo.
13 I write vnto you, fathers, because yee haue knowen him that is from the beginning. I write vnto you, yong men, because ye haue ouercome that wicked one. I write vnto you, litle children, because ye haue knowen ye Father.
Agyanom, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ munim nea ɔte ase fi mfiase no. Mmabun, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ moadi ɔbonsam so.
14 I haue written vnto you, fathers, because ye haue knowen him, that is from the beginning. I haue written vnto you, yong men, because ye are strong, and the worde of God abideth in you, and ye haue ouercome that wicked one.
Mma, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ munim Agya no. Agyanom, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ munim nea ɔte ase fi mfiase no. Mmabun, merekyerɛw mo, efisɛ mowɔ ahoɔden. Onyankopɔn asɛm no te mo mu na moadi ɔbonsam so.
15 Loue not this world, neither the things that are in this world. If any man loue this world, the loue of the Father is not in him.
Monnnɔ wiase anaasɛ biribiara a ɛyɛ wiase de. Sɛ modɔ wiase a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ monnnɔ Agya a ɔwɔ mo mu no.
16 For all that is in this world (as the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life) is not of the Father, but is of this world.
Biribiara a ɛyɛ wiase de; ɔhonam akɔnnɔ, nea nnipa hu na wɔn kɔn dɔ, biribiara a ɛwɔ wiase a nnipa hoahoa wɔn ho wɔ ho no, mu biara mfi Agya no. Ne nyinaa fi wiase.
17 And this world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that fulfilleth the will of God, abideth euer. (aiōn g165)
Wiase ne mu akɔnnɔde retwa mu, nanso nea ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn apɛde no tena hɔ daa. (aiōn g165)
18 Litle children, it is the last time, and as ye haue heard that Antichrist shall come, euen now are there many Antichrists: whereby we know that it is the last time.
Me mma, awiei no abɛn. Wɔka kyerɛɛ mo se Kristo Tamfo no bɛba, nanso mprempren, Kristo atamfo bebree ada wɔn ho adi, enti yɛahu sɛ ampa awiei no abɛn.
19 They went out from vs, but they were not of vs: for if they had bene of vs, they should haue continued with vs. But this cometh to passe, that it might appeare, that they are not all of vs.
Nokware, na saa nnipa yi nka yɛn ho na ɛno nti na wogyaw yɛn hɔ no. Na sɛ wɔka yɛn ho a, anka wɔne yɛn tenae. Nanso wogyaw yɛn hɔ, sɛnea wubehu no pefee sɛ wɔnka yɛn ho.
20 But ye haue an ointment from that Holy one, and know all things.
Mo de, Kristo ahwie Honhom Kronkron no agu mo so, enti mo nyinaa nim nokware no.
21 I haue not written vnto you, because ye knowe not the trueth: but because ye knowe it, and that no lie is of the trueth.
Ɛnyɛ sɛ munnim nokware no nti na makyerɛw saa krataa yi, na mmom munim na munim nso sɛ, atoro biara mfi nokware mu mma.
22 Who is a liar, but he that denyeth that Iesus is that Christ? the same is that Antichrist that denyeth the Father and the Sonne.
Afei hena ne ɔtorofo? Ɛyɛ obi a ɔka se Yesu nyɛ Kristo no. Oyi ne Kristo tamfo. Ɔpo Agya no ne Ɔba no nyinaa.
23 Whosoeuer denyeth the Sonne, the same hath not the Father.
Obiara nni hɔ a ɔpo Ɔba no na ɔwɔ Agya no; nea ogye Ɔba no to mu biara wɔ Agya no nso.
24 Let therefore abide in you that same which ye haue heard from the beginning. If that which ye haue heard from the beginning, shall remaine in you, ye also shall continue in the Sonne, and in the Father.
Mommɔ mmɔden mfa asɛm a motee mfiase no nsie mo koma mu. Sɛ mode asɛm a motee mfiase no sie a, mo ne Ɔba no ne Agya no benya ayɔnkofa.
Na eyi na Kristo no ankasa ahyɛ yɛn ho bɔ no, nkwa a enni awiei no. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things haue I written vnto you, concerning them that deceiue you.
Mekyerɛw mo fa wɔn a wɔpɛ sɛ wɔdaadaa mo no ho.
27 But that anointing which ye receiued of him, dwelleth in you: and ye neede not that any man teach you: but as the same Anoynting teacheth you of all things, and it is true, and is not lying, and as it taught you, ye shall abide in him.
Na mo de, Kristo ahwie ne Honhom Kronkron no agu mo so. Mmere dodow a ne Honhom no te mo mu no, ɛho nhia sɛ obi foforo bɛkyerɛkyerɛ mo. Efisɛ ne Honhom no kyerɛkyerɛ mo biribiara. Na nea ɔkyerɛ no nso yɛ nokware; ɛnyɛ atoro. Muntie Kristo nkyerɛkyerɛ no na montena ne mu.
28 And nowe, litle children, abide in him, that when he shall appeare, we may be bolde, and not be ashamed before him at his comming.
Me mma, montena ne mu sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a sɛ ɔba a, yebenya akokoduru na yɛmfa aniwu nkohintaw da a ɔbɛba no.
29 If ye know that he is righteous, know ye that he which doeth righteously, is borne of him.
Munim sɛ Kristo yɛ ɔtreneeni. Na ɛsɛ sɛ muhu sɛ obiara a ɔyɛ ade trenee no yɛ Onyankopɔn ba.
