1 John 1
1 We write to you about the Word of life, which has been in existence from the beginning. We write of what we have heard, of what we have seen with our eyes, of what we watched reverently and touched with our hands.
Ũhoro ũrĩa warĩ kuo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria, ũrĩa tũiguĩte, na ũrĩa tuonete na maitho maitũ, na tũkawĩrorera, namo moko maitũ makaũhutia, o ũhoro ũcio wa Kiugo kĩa muoyo, nĩguo tũhunjagia.
2 That life was made visible, and we have seen it. We bear our testimony to it, and tell you of that eternal life which was with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios g166)
Muoyo ũcio nĩwonithanirio; na ithuĩ nĩtũwonete na tũkaheana ũira waguo, na ithuĩ tũkamũhunjagĩria ũhoro wa muoyo wa tene na tene, ũrĩa watũire na Ithe witũ, na ũkĩonithanio kũrĩ ithuĩ. (aiōnios g166)
3 It is of what we have seen and heard that we now tell you, so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
Ithuĩ tũmũhunjagĩria kĩrĩa tuonete na tũkaigua, nĩgeetha o na inyuĩ mũgĩe ngwatanĩro na ithuĩ. Nayo ngwatanĩro iitũ nĩ ngwatanĩro na Ithe witũ, o na Mũriũ Jesũ Kristũ.
4 We are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
Tũramwandĩkĩra maũndũ maya nĩguo gĩkeno giitũ kĩiganĩre.
5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.
Ĩno nĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩa tũiguĩte kuuma kũrĩ we, na nĩyo tũramũmenyithia, atĩ: Ngai nĩ ũtheri; thĩinĩ wake gũtirĩ nduma o na hanini.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet continue to walk in the darkness, our words and our lives are a lie.
Tũngiuga atĩ tũrĩ ngwatanĩro nake, tũgĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre ya nduma-rĩ, ũguo nĩkũheenania, naguo ũhoro wa ma ndũtũũraga thĩinĩ witũ.
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
No tũngĩthiĩ na ũtheri, o ta ũrĩa we arĩ ũtheri-inĩ, tũrĩ na ngwatanĩro mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, nayo thakame ya Jesũ, Mũrũ wake, nĩĩtũtheragia, tũgathirwo nĩ mehia mothe.
8 If we say, ‘we have no sin,’ then we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Tũngiuga tũtirĩ na mehia, nĩ kwĩheenia tũkwĩheenia, naguo ũhoro wa ma ndũrĩ thĩinĩ witũ.
9 If we confess our sins, he is just and may be trusted to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all wrongdoing.
Tũngiumbũra mehia maitũ-rĩ, we nĩ mwĩhokeku na nĩ wa kĩhooto, na nĩegũtũrekera mehia maitũ na atũtherie tũthirwo nĩ maũndũ mothe marĩa matarĩ ma ũthingu.
10 If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make God a liar, and his Word is not in us.
Tũngiuga tũtiĩhĩtie-rĩ, tũkũmũtua wa maheeni, naguo ũhoro wake ndũrĩ na handũ thĩinĩ witũ.
