1 John 3

1 Behold, what loue the Father hath giuen to vs, that we should be called the sonnes of God: for this cause this world knoweth you not, because it knoweth not him.

Toh i irin son wa anota, du ba yo ta ti mri Irji naki ki hei a hei naki gbugbulu na toh ta na. Naki ba na to Iti a na iftift ikpe bari bi didima u” bi Greeku' nisein ba toh da gran ya da ki hei ifga.

2 Dearely beloued, nowe are we the sonnes of God, but yet it is not made manifest what we shall be: and we know that when he shalbe made manifest, we shalbe like him: for we shall see him as he is.

Kpukpamu ki mri Irji zizan ba riheiu gran yada ki hei ki toh inde yesu a ye kita me ki hei ki toh inde yesu a ye kita me ki hei na wawu hei ki toh naki yada a hei.

3 And euery man that hath this hope in him, purgeth himselfe, euen as he is pure.

Indi wa a si yo shishi ni ua ka gla kpama na wa wu hei.

4 Whosoeuer committeth sinne, transgresseth also the Law: for sinne is the transgression of the Lawe.

Indi wa a si lahtre a si ti kpe wa a na didima na don lahtre hi kpe meme.

5 And ye knowe that hee was made manifest, that he might take away our sinnes, and in him is no sinne.

Bi toh ba shile kristi rju du ye ban lahtre mbu rhu ni ta wu naki ni u' kena lahtre na heina.

6 Whosoeuer abideth in him, sinneth not: whosoeuer sinneth, hath not seene him, neither hath knowen him.

Ba ndi wa ani hei ni 'u' da si ta lahtre. Ba ndi wa sita latre da tre me di wawu to'o ko a yemen ni wu.

7 Litle children, let no man deceiue you: he that doeth righteousnes, is righteous, as hee is righteous.

Imir na yeim du dio grue yi na ndi wa a si ti kpe didima a hi ndi didi na wa kristy a didi ma.

8 He that comitteth sinne, is of the deuil: for the deuill sinneth from the beginning: for this purpose was made manifest that Sonne of God, that he might loose the workes of the deuil.

Indi wa a si ti latre a rji ni brji, don ibrji latre rji ni mumla, Na ki u' ba shile vre Irji rhu du ye kpa du brji ti meme.

9 Whosoeuer is borne of God, sinneth not: for his seede remaineth in him, neither can hee sinne, because he is borne of God.

Indi wa ba grji rji ni Irji ana si ti lahtre na, domin ibin u' Irji a hei ni u' ana la lah tre na, don ahe gjri u rji.

10 In this are the children of God knowen, and the children of the deuil: whosoeuer doeth not righteousnesse, is not of God, neither he that loueth not his brother.

Na ki mri Irji baba mri ibrji ba shile ba, indi wa ana tikpe didima na ana rji ni Irji na du ni indi wa ani kran vayi ma.

11 For this is the message, that ye heard from the beginning, that we should loue one another,

I wa hi imbe wa bi woh ni mumla ki yemen kpa mbu.

12 Not as Cain which was of that wicked one, and slewe his brother: and wherefore slewe he him? because his owne workes were euill, and his brothers good.

Kina ti na kayinu na wa a rji ni brji da wu vayi ma ani tu gye awu? don idu ma ana u'brji u vayi ma ka didima.

13 Marueile not, my brethren, though this world hate you.

Mri vayi na ti “mamaki” na, inde gbugbulu ni kran yi.

14 We know that we are translated from death vnto life, because we loue the brethren: he that loueth not his brother, abideth in death.

Ki toh ki rju ni mi ique idi ri na rai don ki san mri vayi.

15 Whosoeuer hateth his brother, is a manslayer: and ye know that no manslayer hath eternall life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)

Indi wa ana son vayi ma na, a hi u wu ndi bi toh bi wu ndi ba na hei ni re u tutrun ni wu na. (aiōnios g166)

16 Hereby haue we perceiued loue, that he layde downe his life for vs: therefore we ought also to lay downe our liues for the brethren.

Na ki ki toh son wa kristi ka tu ma no ba wu don kita. Kita me ki ka tumbu no domin mri vayi.

17 And whosoeuer hath this worlds good, and seeth his brother haue neede, and shutteth vp his compassion from him, howe dwelleth the loue of God in him?

Du ndi wa ahei ni kpi bi gbugbulu yi, da toh vayi ma ni mi yah da na zo u na, yaya itre Irji ni he ni u?

18 My litle children, let vs not loue in worde, neither in tongue onely, but in deede and in trueth.

Mri mu ki na ta tre ki yemen mir vayi ni yun kuklu na ki ti ni mi suron jaji.

19 For thereby we know that we are of the trueth, and shall before him assure our hearts.

Na ki ki toh di ki rji ni jaji, naki ki kpayemen ni suron mbu ni u.

20 For if our heart condemne vs, God is greater then our heart, and knoweth all things.

Inde suron mbu kashe ta, Irji zan suron mbu da toh kpi ba wawu.

21 Beloued, if our heart condemne vs not, then haue we boldnes toward God.

Kaunatatu, inde suron mbu na kashe ta na, ki ka hei ni gbengbenlen ni Irji.

22 And whatsoeuer we aske we receiue of him, because we keepe his commandements, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.

Du ikpe wa ki mie ki kpa ni u' don ki zi itre ma di ni ti kpe wa ani nu kikla suron

23 This is then his commandement, That we beleeue in the Name of his Sonne Iesus Christ, and loue one another as hee gaue commandement.

I wa yi hi tre ma ki ka kpayemen ni vre ma yesu kristi di son kpa mbu na wa no ta tre ma.

24 For hee that keepeth his commandements, dwelleth in him, and he in him: and hereby we knowe that hee abideth in vs, euen by that Spirit which he hath giuen vs.

Indi wa azi tre Irji a hei ni Irji u Irji hei ni ndia. Naki ki toh di a hei ni ta ni mi Ruhu tsatsarka da a nota.
