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.

Vone, mufutanzi we ilato Ishetu lya vahi kwetu, kuti tu sumpwe vana va Ireza, mi nji chona chi tuli. Cheli vaka, i nkanda ka itwizi, kakuti kana iva mwizi.

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.

Vasakiwa, hanu cheli tu vana va Ireza, mi kakwini ku patululwa chese ni tuve kacho. Twizi kuti Kirisite cha voneka, katuve sina iye, kakuti ka tu muvone sina uvu mwe kalile.

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

Yense wina iyi insepo kuya cha vuhalo vwa ku vusu vu lolete hali u lishanza mwine sina mwe kalile ku jololola.

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

Yense yo zwila havusu u chita chisena mulao, kakuti chivi ku vula mulao.

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

Mwizi kuti Kirisite ava patululwa ku pangila ku zwisa zivi. Mi mwali ka mwina chivi, ka kakwina yo shala mwali yo zwila havusu ni chivi.

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

Ka kwina yo zwila havusu muchivi ya va muvoni kapa ku mwi ziva.

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

Vana vasakiwa, kanzi mu siyi yense ku mi zwisa mu nzila. Iye yo panga zilukite u lukite, sina uvu Kirisite ha lukite.

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.

Iye yo panga chivi uzwa kwa javulusi, kakuti javulusi ava fosi ku zwa ku matangilo. Cheli vaka Mwana wa Ireza ava patululwa, kuti za sinyenge misevezi ya javulusi.

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

Yense ya va zalwa kwa Ireza katendi chivi kakuti lutanga lwa Ireza lushala mwali. Kawoli ku zwila havusi na chita chivi kakuti uzelwe cha Ireza.

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.

Mwe chi vana va Ireza ni vana va javulusi va patululwile. Yense ya sa pangi chi lukite ka zwi kwa Ireza; kapa njozo ya sa saki mwakwe.

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

Ili njeli iñusa li muvazuwi ku matangilo: kuti tulisakane tuvonse.

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.

Isiñi uvu Kaine, ya vali kuzwa ku muvilala ni kwi haya mwa nchakwe. Mi chinzi ha va mwi hai? Kakuti misevezi ya kwe ivali mivilala, mi ya mwakwe iva lukite.

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

Kanzi mu komokiswa, va kwetu, haiva inkanda imi toya.

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.

Twizi kuti tu va hitilili ku zwa mwifu ku ya mukuhala, kakuti tusaka vakwetu. Yense ya suni ushala mwifu.

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

Yense yo toyete mwakwe chi hayi. Mi mwizi kuti uvu vuhalo vusa mani ka vushali mu chihayi. (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.

Kache chi mwizi kuti ilato, kakuti Kirisite ava la ziki vuhalo bwakwe hansi chetu. Na swe tuswanela ku lazika vuhalo vwetu cha va mwetu.

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?

Kono yense yokwete zintu ze nkanda, na vona mwakwe yo vulite mi wi yala inkulo yense ku zwa kwali, linu ilato lye Ireza ka lishale vule mwali?

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

Vana vangu va sakahala, kanzi tu saki mwi inzwi kapa mu lulimi, kono mu zimpangaliko ni initi.

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

Nji ka chezi twizi kuti tuzwa ku niti, mi tulizuwi vuvi inkulo zetu ha li.

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

Mi haiva inkulo zetu zi tunyansa, Ireza mukando ku hita inkulo zetu, mi wizi zintu zonse.

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

Vasakiwa, haiva inkulo zetu ka zi tunyansi, twina insempo kwa Ireza.

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

Zonse zitu kumbila katuzi tambule kuzwa kwali, kakuti tu vika milao ya kwe mi tupanga zintu zi kondwa hali.

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.

Uwu nji mulao wakwe: kuti tu zumine mwi zina lya Mwana Jesu Kirisite, mi ni kulisaka mu vonse, sina mwa vatuheli uwu mulao.

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.

Iye uzo yo vika milao ya Ireza ushala mwali, mi Ireza ushala mwali. Che chi twizi kuti ushala mwetu, cha Luhuho lu vahewa kwetu.
