< 1 John 1 >
1 That which was from the beginning, which wee haue heard, which wee haue seene with these our eyes, which wee haue looked vpon, and these handes of ours haue handled of that Word of life,
Oyo ezalaki wuta na ebandeli, oyo toyokaki, oyo tomonaki na miso na biso, oyo totalaki malamu, mpe oyo maboko na biso esimbaki, yango nde tozali kotatola na tina na Liloba na bomoi.
2 (For that life was made manifest, and wee haue seene it, and beare witnes, and shewe vnto you that eternall life, which was with the Father, and was made manifest vnto vs) (aiōnios )
Bomoi emimonisaki; tomoni yango, tozali kotatola na tina na yango mpe kosakola epai na bino bomoi ya seko oyo ezalaki elongo na Tata mpe emimonisi epai na biso. (aiōnios )
3 That, I say, which wee haue seene and heard, declare wee vnto you, that yee may also haue fellowship with vs, and that our fellowship also may be with the Father, and with his Sonne Iesvs Christ.
Tozali kosakola epai na bino makambo oyo tomoni mpe toyoki, mpo ete bino mpe bozala moko na biso. Nzokande, biso tozali moko na Tata mpe na Yesu-Klisto, Mwana na Ye.
4 And these thinges write we vnto you, that that your ioy may be full.
Yango wana tozali kokomela bino makambo oyo mpo na kokomisa esengo na biso ya kokoka.
5 This then is the message which wee haue heard of him, and declare vnto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkenes.
Tala makambo oyo toyoki na tina na Ye mpe tozali koyebisa bino: Nzambe azali pole, mpe molili ezali te kati na Ye.
6 If wee say that wee haue fellowship with him, and walke in darkenesse, we lie, and doe not truely:
Soki tolobi ete tozali moko na Ye, nzokande tozali kotambola kati na molili, wana tozali bakosi mpe tozali kotambola na solo te.
7 But if we walke in the light as he is in the light, we haue fellowship one with another, and the blood of Iesus Christ his Sonne clenseth vs from all sinne.
Kasi soki tozali kotambola kati na pole ndenge Ye moko Nzambe azali kati na pole, wana tozali moko, bamoko na bamosusu, mpe makila ya Yesu, Mwana na Ye, ezali kopetola biso na masumu nyonso.
8 If we say that we haue no sinne, we deceiue our selues, and trueth is not in vs.
Soki tolobi ete tozali na masumu te, wana tozali komikosa biso moko mpe solo ezali te kati na biso.
9 If we acknowledge our sinnes, he is faithfull and iust, to forgiue vs our sinnes, and to clense vs from all vnrighteousnes.
Soki toyamboli masumu na biso, Nzambe akolimbisa biso mpe akopetola biso na mabe nyonso, pamba te azali Sembo mpe Moyengebene.
10 If wee say we haue not sinned, wee make him a liar, and his word is not in vs.
Soki tolobi ete tosalaka masumu te, wana tokomisi Nzambe mokosi mpe Liloba na Ye ezali te kati na biso.
