1 John 3
1 See what love the Father has given to us, that we may be called children of God; because of this the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
Bhai nnolanje, Atati shibhakuti kutupinga mpaka muntima, nikutushema bhana bha a Nnungu, na nneyo ni shituli uwe. Shilambolyo bhakakutumanyanga uwe pabha bhakakwaamanyanga a Nnungu.
2 Beloved, now, we are children of God, and it was not yet revealed what we will be. We have known that if He may have appeared, we will be like Him, because we will see Him as He is;
Bhakilishitu ajangunji, uwe nnaino ni tubhana bha a Nnungu, ikabheje ikanabhe manyika shitubhe bhuli pushibhakoposhele a Kilishitupo. Ikabheje tumumanyi kuti shitulandane nabho pabha shitwaabhone shibhali.
3 and everyone who is having this hope on Him, purifies himself, even as He is pure.
Bhai kila mundu akulikulupalila lyeneli mwa a Kilishitu, anakwiibhika ukoto mbuti a Kilishitu shibhali bha ukonjelo.
4 Everyone who is doing sin, he also does lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness,
Kila mundu atenda shambi anakujikana shalia ja a Nnungu pabha shambi ni kujikana shalia.
5 and you have known that He appeared that He may take away our sins, and sin is not in Him;
Mmumanyinji kuti a Kilishitu bhashinkuika kuushoya yambi yetu na bhenebho bhangali shambi shoshowe.
6 everyone who is remaining in Him does not sin; everyone who is sinning, has not seen Him, nor known Him.
Bhai kila atama nkulundana na a Kilishitu akayobhelela kutenda shambi, ikabheje kila mundu atenda shambi akanabhe kwaabhona a Kilishitu, wala akakwaamanya a Kilishitu.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray; he who is doing righteousness is righteous, even as He is righteous,
Bhai ashibhanangu nnakundanje kupuganywa naka mundu jojowe. Mundu atenda itendi ya mmbone, jwenejo akwete aki malinga a Kilishitu shibhali bha aki
8 he who is doing sin, he is of the Devil, because the Devil sins from the beginning; for this [reason] the Son of God appeared, that He may undo the works of the Devil;
Ikabheje ayobhelela kutenda shambi, jwenejo juka Lishetani, pabha Lishetani ayobhelele kutenda shambi kuumila kundandubho. Ikabhe Mwana jwa a Nnungu, ashinkuika pa shilambolyo kuangabhanya maengo gaka Lishetani.
9 everyone who has been begotten of God, he does not sin, because His seed remains in him, and he is not able to sin, because he has been begotten of God.
Kila mwana abhelekwe na a Nnungu, akayobhelela kutenda shambi pabha Unnungu uli nkati jakwe, wala akayobhelela kutenda shambi, pabha jwenejo ni mwana jwa a Nnungu.
10 In this are revealed the children of God, and the children of the Devil; everyone who is not doing righteousness, is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother,
Nneyo peyo ni pwiikumanyika mwana jwa a Nnungu na mwana juka Lishetani. Mundu jojowe akaatenda ya aki, na akakwaapinganga bhaakulupalilanga ajakwe, jwenejo nngabha mwana jwa a Nnungu.
11 because this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we may love one another,
Ntenga gumpilikenenje kuumila kundandubho ni gweguno, tunapinjikwa kupingana twaashayene.
12 not as Cain—he was of the evil one, and he slew his brother. And for [what] reason did he slay him? Because his works were evil, and those of his brother [were] righteous.
Tunabhe mbuti Kaini, jwenejo paaliji juka Lishetani, ashinkummulaga mpwakwe. Kwa ligongo lyashi ashinkummulaga mpwakwe? Kwa ligongo lya itendi yakwe nnyene ishinkubha ya nyata, ikabheje ika mpwakwe puyaliji ya aki.
13 Do not wonder, my brothers, if the world hates you;
Bhai bhaakulupalilanga ajangunji, nnakanganigwanje ibhaga shilambolyo shikakumpinganga mmanganyanji.
14 we have known that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers; he who is not loving [his] brother remains in death.
Uwe tumumanyi kuti tupitile kukopoka nshiwo nikwenda ku gumi, pabha tunakwaapinganga Bhakilishitu ajetunji. Mundu akakwaapinganga bhakilishitu ajakwe anatama nshiwo
15 Everyone who is hating his brother is a manslayer, and you have known that no manslayer has continuous life remaining in him; (aiōnios g166)
Kila akakumpinga akulupalila nnjakwe jwenejo nkubhulaga, na mmanganyanji mmumanyinji kuti jojowe abhulaga jwangali gumi gwa pitipiti nkati jakwe. (aiōnios g166)
16 in this we have known love, because He laid down His life for us, and we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brothers;
Uwe putukumanyi kupingana ni nneino. A Yeshu Kilishitu bhashinkwiishoya gumi gwabho kwa ligongo lyetu uwe, numbe uwe tunapinjikwa kwiishoya gumi gwetu kwa ligongo lya bhaakulupalilanga ajetu
17 and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his yearnings from him—how does the love of God remain in him?
Bhai mundu akolaga mali ga pashilambo pano, na ammonaga nnjakwe ali nshilaje, nikola ntima gwa nonopa gwangali kummonela shiya, a Nnungu shibhampinje bhuli jwenejo?
18 My little children, may we not love in word nor in tongue, but in work and in truth!
Ashibhanangu kupingana kwetu kunabhe malobhe jika, ikabhe tupingane kwa kweli na kwa itendi.
19 And in this we know that we are of the truth, and before Him we will assure our hearts,
Nneyo ni pushitumumanye kuti uwe ni tubhandu bha kweli, na tukakola lipamba kwa a Nnungu.
20 because if our heart may condemn—because greater is God than our heart, and He knows all things.
Ibhaga ndumbililo yetu ituukumulaga, tumumanyi kuti a Nnungu ni bhakulungwa kupunda ndumbililo yetu, na kuti Bhenebho bhashimanyi kila shindu.
21 Beloved, if our heart may not condemn us, we have boldness toward God,
Ashaambwiga ajangunji, ibhaga mitima jetu jangali sha kutuukumula, bhai shitukombole kubha na makangala ga kwaajendela a Nnungu.
22 and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because we keep His commands, and we do the things pleasing before Him,
Na shituposhele kwa bhenebho shoshowe shitujuga, pabha tunakagulila malajilo gabho, na tenda ikwaanonyela.
23 and this is His command, that we may believe in the Name of His Son Jesus Christ, and may love one another, even as He gave command to us,
Na malajilo gabho ni nnei, twaakulupalile Bhanabhabho a Yeshu Kilishitu, na tupingane malinga shibhatulajile.
24 and he who is keeping His commands, remains in Him, and He in him; and in this we know that He remains in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.
Akagulila malajilo ga a Nnungu, anatama nkulundana na a Nnungu, na a Nnungu bhanatama nkulundana na jwenejo. Kupitila kuka Mbumu jubhatupeleshele a Nnungu, uwe tumumanyi kuti a Nnungu, bhanatama nkulundana na uwe.
