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.
Tarirai kukura kworudo rwatakaitirwa naBaba, kuti tinzi vana vaMwari! Uye ndizvo zvatiri! Chinoita kuti nyika itadze kutiziva ndechokuti haina kumuziva iye.
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.
Vadikani, zvino tiri vana vaMwari, uye zvatichazova zvichigere kuzivikanwa. Asi tinoziva kuti paachaonekwa, isu tichafanana naye, nokuti tichamuona sezvaari.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Mumwe nomumwe ane tariro iyi maari anozvichenesa, sezvo iye akachena.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Munhu wose anotadza anodarika murayiro, zvechokwadi, chivi ndiko kudarika murayiro.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away sins, and in him is no sin.
Asi munoziva kuti iye akaonekwa kuitira kuti abvise zvivi zvedu. Uye maari hamuna chivi.
6 Whoever remains in him does not sin. Whoever sins hasn't seen him, neither knows him.
Hakuna munhu anogara maari anoramba achingotadza. Hakuna munhu anoramba achitadza, kana akamuona kana kuti akamuziva.
7 Children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Vana vanodiwa, musarega munhu upi zvake achikutsausai. Uyo anoita zvakanaka, akarurama, saiye akarurama.
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.
Uyo anoita zvakaipa ndowadhiabhori, nokuti dhiabhori akanga achingotadza kubva pakutanga. Mwanakomana waMwari akaonekwa nokuda kwaizvozvi kuti aparadze basa radhiabhori.
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.
Hakuna munhu akaberekwa naMwari anoramba achiita chivi, nokuti mbeu yaMwari inogara maari; haangarambi achingotadza, nokuti akaberekwa naMwari.
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.
Ndiwo maziviro edu kuti vana vaMwari ndevapi uye kuti vana vadhiabhori ndevapi: Ani naani asingaiti zvakarurama haasi mwana waMwari; uyewo uyo asingadi hama yake.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;
Iri ndiro shoko ramakanzwa kubva pakutanga: Tinofanira kudanana.
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.
Musaita saKaini, akanga ari wowakaipa uye akaponda mununʼuna wake. Uye akamuurayireiko? Nokuti mabasa ake akanga akaipa uye omununʼuna wake akanga akarurama.
13 Therefore do not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you.
Musashamiswa, hama dzangu, kana nyika ichikuvengai.
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.
Tinoziva kuti takabva murufu tikaenda muupenyu, nokuti tinoda hama dzedu. Ani naani asingadi anogara murufu.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has everlasting life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)
Ani naani anovenga hama yake imhondi, uye munoziva kuti hakuna mhondi ino upenyu husingaperi mairi. (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.
Aya ndiwo maziviro edu kuti rudo rwakadini: Jesu Kristu akapa upenyu hwake nokuda kwedu. Uye isu tinofanira kupa upenyu hwedu nokuda kwehama dzedu.
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?
Kana munhu ane pfuma uye akaona hama yake ichishayiwa, asi akasainzwira tsitsi, rudo rwaMwari rungagara maari seiko?
18 Little children, let us not love in word only, neither with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Vana vanodikanwa, ngatiregerei kuda namashoko kana norurimi, asi namabasa uye nechokwadi.
19 And by this we will know that we are of the truth, and persuade our heart before him,
Zvino, ndiwo maziviro edu kuti tiri vechokwadi, uye kuti mwoyo yedu inozorora sei pamberi pake
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
pose patinopiwa mhosva nemwoyo yedu. Nokuti Mwari mukuru kupfuura mwoyo yedu, uye anoziva zvinhu zvose.
21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God;
Shamwari dzinodikanwa, kana mwoyo yedu isingatipi mhosva, tinako kuvimba pamberi paMwari
22 and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
uye tinogamuchira kubva kwaari zvose zvatinokumbira, nokuti tinoteerera mirayiro yake uye tinoita zvinomufadza.
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.
Uye uyu ndiwo murayiro wake: kutenda muzita roMwanakomana wake, Jesu Kristu, uye nokuda mumwe nomumwe wedu sezvaakatirayira.
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.
Avo vanoteerera mirayiro yake vanogara maari, naiye mavari. Uye izvi ndizvo zvinoita kuti tizive kuti iye anogara matiri: Tinozviziva noMweya waakatipa.
