1 John 4

1 BELOVED, believe not every pretender to inspiration, but bring these spirits to the trial whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone forth into the world.

Waganwe msahaheteshe ashila impepo zijeziaji impepo mlole nkazifuma hwangolobhe, akuwa winchi wi leaka wafume mus'i.

2 By this ye know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesseth that Jesus the Messiah is come in the flesh, is from God.

Hweli mza humanye umpepo ufijile uwa ngolobhe impepo yinza humweteshe aje uYesu uKiristi ayezele nu belegwa ngolowe,

3 And every spirit who confesseth not that Jesus the Messiah is come into the world, is not from God: and this is that spirit of antichrist which ye have heard that it is coming, and now is already in the world.

shila impepo ya sanga ihumweteha uYesu saga ya Ngolobhe. Ene impepo yihuhana U Kiristi elamwahayuvwezye aje ihueza eshi ilehomuns'ii.

4 Ye are of God, my dear children, and have overcome them; because he that is in you is greater than he that is in the world.

Amwe mli wahwaangolowe, wana waganwe, mliwawameni yalimhati yenyu yu Gosi ashile yali mun'sii.

5 They are of the world, therefore speak they as of the world, and the world heareth them.

Awene wa mun'sii ziawayanga zya mun'sii awamun'sii wa huwatenjelezia.

6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of delusion.

Ate tili wa hwa Ngolobhe. Yamenye Ungolowe ahututenjelezia ate. Yasaga aliwa ngolowe sangawajie hututenyelezie. Hweli timanya impepo wa lioli nantele timanya impepo yi leaka.

7 Beloved, let us love one another; because love is from God, and every one who loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

Waganwe tigananaje tiwene tiwene shesho ugano waNgolowe, shila weka yaganile apapwilwe nu Ngolobhe na ntele amenye Ungolowe Unguluwi.

8 He that loveth not, never knew God; for God is love.

Umwene yasanga aganile saga amenye Ungolowe, shesho Ungolowe walugano.

9 By this was the love of God manifested to us, that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might have life by him.

Shesho oluoulugano lwa Ngolobhe lwahakwinkwiliwe mwawamo awamwetu, shesho Ungolobhe ahasontelezwa umwana wakwe mwene musi aje tidele ashilile umwene.

10 Herein is love, not that we have loved God, but that he hath loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiatory sacrifice for our sins.

Olu ulugano sagaje tahaganile, Ungolobhe yuyo ahatiganile ahatuma umwana wakwe atisombele imbiwi zyetu.

11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

Waganwe, Ungolobhe nkatigene nate shesho tigananaje tete tete.

12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

Nomo wowonti yanolile Ungolobhe Nkati ganene teet tete, Ungolobhe akhala mhati yetu Ugano lwake lumalihine mhati yetu.

13 By this we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his own Spirit.

Hueli tumeye aje tikhala mhati yakwe numwene akhala mhati yetu, huje atipiye upenpo wakwe.

14 And we have seen and bear testimony, that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Tulolile nantele tisimizishe aje udaada atumile umwana huje mfuolo winsii.

15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.

Uno yahumweteha aje uYesu mwana wa Ngolowe, Ungolowe akhala mhati yakwe nu mwene mhati ya Ngolowe.

16 And we have known and believed the love which God hath towards us. God is love; and he that abideth in love, abideth in God, and God in him.

Timanya na humweteshe ulugano lwalinalo Ungolowe mhati yetu. Ungolowe lugano, umwene yakhala mhati mlugano akhala mhati mwangolowe nu ngolowe akhala mhati mwa mwene.

17 By this is his love towards us perfected, that we might have confidence at the day of judgment; because as he is, so are we in this world.

Ulugano olu lumalihine hulite, tiwe ni daada isiku lilozi, tiwe nashiumwene shaleho. Nateshashele mun'sii umu.

18 Fear is not in this love; but the perfect love casteth out fear: for fear hath anguish. He that is afraid is not made perfect in love.

Naaumo uwoga mhati yi lugano. Ulugano wanalioli utanga uwoga hunze, uwoga ukondana nu lunzi. Lelo umwene yahogopa sagamalihene nu lugano.

19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Tisongwa aje Ungolowe atiganile hulwandilo.

20 If any person say, I love God, yet hateth his brother, he is a liar; for he who loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love the God whom he hath not seen?

Weka nkayaje iganile, “Ungolowe” lelo ahuvitilwa uholo wakwe uyo alinilenka shahije nkasaga uganile uholo waho yuhunola sangaugagana Ungolowe yusanga uhulola.

21 So this commandment have we from him, that he who loveth God love also his brother.

Ene yindajizwo ene yatili nayo ifumile hwamwene: Wowonti yaganile Ungolowe, ahuaziwa agane nuholo wakwe wope.
