1 John 3
1 Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God l For this cause the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
Sok thaak an, Hewah ih seng timthan minchan hali! Heh minchan ah erathan rak seng ah Rangte sah ngeh jen poon thuk hali—eno amiimi di seng loong ah hesuh hesah langli. Neng loong ih seng ah tajat ri mamah liidih Rangte ah tajat rumka.
2 Beloved, now are we children of God, and it hath not yet been manifested what we shall be. We know that, when it shall be manifested, we shall be like him; because we shall see him as he is.
Nga mongnook joonte loong, seng ah belam Rangte suh asah, enoothong seng mamah angte angli erah amadi tuk ih tajatke. Enoothong seng ih ejat ehi Kristo raaha doh seng ah heh likhiik angte angli, mamah liidih heh ah mamah angta erah likhiikkhiik ih kaptup ih.
3 And every one that hath this hope in Him purifieth himself, even as He is pure.
Marah mina ih Kristo asuh laalom la erah mina ih Kristo saata likhik heh uh sa chamcham angtheng.
4 Whoever committeth sin transgresseth thereby the law; for sin is a transgression of the law.
Ngo dala erah ih Rangte hotthe thetsiit ha erah ah thila, mamah liidih hotthe thetsiit ha rah rangdah.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.
Sen ih ejat ehan Kristo ra taha rah rangdah saahaat ra taha, eno heh di rangdah ah takah jeeka.
6 Whoever abideth in him sinneth not; whoever sinneth hath not seen him, nor known him.
Erah raang ih Kristo damdoh roong tongte loong ah rangdah laka dah theng; Enoothong marah mina daruh ela, erah mina ih heh ah mabah uh tah tupta nyia tajatta.
7 My children, let no one deceive you; he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Nga sah loong, ngo ih uh nak toom mokwaan han! Marah mina pun reela erah mina ah Kristo kateng angla likhiik heh uh kateng angla.
8 He that committeth sin is of the Devil; for the Devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the Devil.
Marah mina daruh ela erah mina ah Hakhoh juungbaan dabbi, mamah liidih Hakhoh juungbaan ih jaakhoh ni dook phang data. Rangte Sah ah erah thoi ih ra taha, marah Hakhoh juungbaan ih hoonta erah thet haat suh ra taha.
9 Whoever hath been born of God doth not commit sin, because his seed abideth in him; and he cannot sin, because he hath been born of God.
Marah mina Rangte suh asah angla erah rangdah daruh tah daka, timnge liidih Rangte dang ajang ah neng damdi; edoleh Rangte ah neng Wah, erah thoidi neng ih rangdah ah daruh tah erumka.
10 In this are manifest the children of God and the children of the Devil. Whoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, and he that loveth not his brother.
Rangte suh asah nyia Hakhoh juungbaan suh asah loong ah maama ang rum ah: Marah mina ah lapun reeka nyia wahoh lah minchanka rah Rangte suh asah tah angka.
11 For this is the message that ye have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;
Jaakhoh ni chaattan jengkhaap ah arah: seng laktung nah minchan mui jaatjaat etheng.
12 not as Cain was of the Evil One, and slew his brother. And wherefore did he slay him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
Seng loong ah Keen likhiik nak angtheng; Heh ah Ethih Wah rah dakbi angthoi heh no Abel ah tek haatta. Keen ih heh ah tim suh tek haatta? Mamah liidih Keen reeraang ah ethih angta, eno heh no reeta ah epun angta.
13 Wonder not, brethren, if the world hateth you.
Phoh ano loong mongrep dowa mina loong ih mok miksuk hanbah nak paatja an.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren; he that loveth not abideth in death.
Seng ih ejat ehi etek ah thinhaat eti eno ething roidong adi tongli; seng laktung ni minchan mui thaang ih arah jat hi. Marah mina ih phoh ano lah minchanka erah mina ah amadi uh etek chaan aphaan khui ni tong rumla.
15 Whoever hateth his brother is a murderer; and ye know that no murderer hath everlasting life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
Marah mina ih hephoh heno miksuk ha erah mina ah mih tek haatte, eno sen ih ejat ehan mih tek haatte di lathoon roidong ah tajeeka ang ah. (aiōnios g166)
16 Herein we know love, in that he laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
Minchan jat hi rah amah: Kristo ih heh teeteewah roidong ah seng raangtaan ih kota, erah likhiikkhiik seng eh uh sengphoh sengno raangtaan ih thing tongtheng!
17 But whoever hath this world's goods, and seeth his brother having need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
Seng changteng angli li ino sengphoh sengno ih timjih jamha erah etup ehi, ang abah uh neng suh tim uh takoke, erabah mamah ma jen chaang ih Rangte ah minchan ehang ngeh ah?
18 My children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
Nga sah loong, seng dowa minchan ah jengkhaap luulu nyia tiitwaan luulu nah nak toom ang ah, erah nang ih amiisak minchan ah toom ang ah sengre sengraang nawa ih jen noisok theng toom ang ah.
19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him;
Erah likhiikkhiik seng ah amiisak dabbi ngeh jat ih: seng loong Rangte ngathong nah rong tangtang jen ang ih.
20 because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
Sengthung sengtak ih seng loong mok dut haat heebah, seng ih ejat etheng sengthung sengtak nang ih Rangte ah elongthoon eno heh ih jirep roop jat ha.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have confidence toward God;
Erah raangtaan ih, mongnook joonte loong, sengthung sengtak ih seng asuh lamok damdak riibah, seng loong jinni tenchaan tenthun eje Rangte ngathong ni ah.
22 and whatever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Marah suhi, erah heh jin nawa echoh eli, mamah liidih seng ih heh jengdang ah ekap ehi eno heh thung punjih ah ere eli.
23 And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and should love one another, as he gave commandment.
Heh jengdang ah langla, seng ih Jisu Kristo suh hanpi ih nyia seng jaachi nah Kristo ih baat tahe likhiikkhiik minchan mui theng.
24 And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him; and hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit, which he gave us.
Marah mina ih Rangte jengdang ah echaat eha erah mina ah heh damdi roong tongla, eno Rangte uh heh damdi roong tongla. Mamah liidih marah Rangte ih koh tahe Chiiala rah ih jatthuk hali, Rangte ah seng damdi roongtong hala.
