1 Yochanan 3
1 See what kind of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God; and we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know him.
Amubone luyando Taata ndwakatupa, kuti tuteegwa tulibana baLeza, ino mbombubo mbotubede. Akaambo aka nyika titwiizi, nkambo teyakamuziba pe. Zimwi zyensiku zipati zililembedwe muchiGiliki zilasiya eezi, ezi nzizyo nzituli nzizyo.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. We know that, when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is.
Nomuyandwa, lino twaba bana ba Leza, alimwi tazina yubununwa nzituyooba nzizyo. Tulizi kuti Kkilisito apamuka, tuyooba mbuli nguwe, nkambo tuyomubona mbubonya mbuli mbwabede.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Woonse ujisi bulangizi obu mulinguwe ulalisalazya mbubonya mbuuli mbwasalala we lwakwe.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Woonse uubisya ulimukuchita nchito zitali mumulawu, nkambo chibi nkutaba mumulawu.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away sins, and in him is no sin.
Mulizi kuti Kkilisito wakayubununwa kuchitila kuti agwisye zibi, alimwi mulinguwe tamukwe chibi pe.
6 Whoever remains in him does not sin. Whoever sins hasn't seen him, neither knows him.
Taakwe ukkalilila mulinguwe uyoyinkilila kunembo kabisya. Tawope wakamubona akumuziba uyinkilila kunembo akubisya.
7 Children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Nobana, mutalekeli muntu naba omwe kuti amuzulwide mukusweeka. Ooyo uuchita bululami uliluleme, mbubonya Kkilisito mbwaluleme.
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil.
Oyo uchita chibi uzwa kuli dyabulosi, nkambo dyabulosi wakabisya kuzwa kumatalikilo. Akambo aka Mwana wa Leza wakayubununwa, kuchitila kuti anyoonyone milimu yadyabulosi.
9 Whoever is born of God does not commit sin, because his seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
Ooyo iwakazyalwa kuzwa kwa Leza tayinkilili kunembo kabisya pe, nkambo imbuto ya Leza ikkalilide mulinguwe. Takonzyi kwinkililila kunembo kabisya nkambo wakazyalwa a Leza.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever does not do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who does not love his brother.
Muleezi bana ba Leza abana ba dyabulosi balayubununwa. Kufumbwa uutachiti ziluleme tazwi kwa-Leza, nikuba ooyo utayandi munyina.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;
Aaya ngimakani ngimwakamvwa kuzwa kumatalikilo: Tweelede kuyandana umwi awumwi,
12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
tatwelede kuba mbuli Kkayini, wakazwide kumubi alimwi wakajaya munyina. Ino wakamujilaanzi? Nkambo milimu yakwe yakali mibi ino yamunyiina kiluleme.
13 Therefore do not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you.
Mutagambi, nobakwesu, na inyika yamusula.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love remains in death.
Tulizi kuti twakiinda kuzwa mulufu akunjila mubuumi, nkambo tulabayanda bakwesu, oyo utakonzyi kuyanda ukkalilide mulufu.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has everlasting life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)
Kufumbwa uusula munyina mujayi. Mulizi kuti taakwe mujayi ulaabuumi butamani pe bukkede mulinguwe. (aiōnios g166)
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
Aazezi mbutulwizi luyando, nkambo Kkilisito wakatulazikila buumi bwakwe aansi. Aswebo twelede kulazikila babunyina buumi bwesu aansi.
17 But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does the love of God remain in him?
Pele kufumbwa uujisi zintu zyenyika, nabona munyina uubulide, wamujalila moyo waluzyalo, ino luyando lwa Leza lukkalilila byeni muli nguwe?
18 Little children, let us not love in word only, neither with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Bana bangu, luyando lwenu lutabi lwamajwi biyo na kuti alulimi biyo, pele munchiito amubwini.
19 And by this we will know that we are of the truth, and persuade our heart before him,
Mukuchita boobu nitutazibe kuti tuzwa kubwini, alimwi tusimya myoyo yesu kunembo lyakwe.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Na kuti myoyo yesu kitusowa, Leza mupati kwinda myoyo yesu, alimwi ulizi zintu zyoonse.
21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God;
Nomuyandwa, kuti myoyo yesu kitatusowi, tulabulangizi kuli Leza.
22 and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Kufumbwa nzitukumbila tulazitambula kuzwa kuli nguwe, nkambo tuliibamba milawu yakwe akuchita zintu zimubotelezya.
23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus (the) Messiah, and love one another, even as he commanded us.
Oyu ngomulawu wakwe: kuti tusyome muzina lya Mwana wakwe Jesu Kkilisito alimwi tuyandane umwi awumwi, mbubonya mbuli mbwakapa mulawu oyu.
24 He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
Ooyo uubamba milawu ya Leza wakkalilila muli nguwe. Nkaambo kazeezi tulizi kuti ulakkalilila muli ndiswe, kwinda mu Muuya ngwakatupa swebo.
