1 John 2
1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the righteous one.
Mobana bame ndamulembelenga makani aya kwambeti mutakensa byaipa. Nsombi na umbi lepishi, tukute weshi kutunyamfwa kayi ukute kutwambililako ku Bata nendi uyo ni Yesu Klistu walulama.
2 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Yesu enshila bwipishi bwetu mobukte kulekelelwa, kutambowa eti bwipishi bwetu bonka nsombi ne bwa bantu nabambi bonse.
3 By this we can be sure that we know him: if we keep his commandments.
Na tulakonkonga Milawo ya Lesa empotwela kwinshiba eti tumwishi.
4 Whoever says, “I know him” but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Na muntu wambeti, “Ame ndimwinshi Lesa”, Kakuli nkakute kukonka Milawo mubuyumi bwakendi ekwinshibeti nimubepeshi kayi liya cakubinga.
5 But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that we are in him:
Nsombi na muntu lasungunga maswi a Lesa, luyand lwa Lesa luli muli endiye. Pakwinga encotukute kwinshibeti eti tuli muli endiye kayi nendiye uli nenjafwe.
6 Whoever says he abides in him ought to walk just as he walked.
Uyo lamabangeti bwikalo bwakame buli muli Lesa, welela kuba nebwikalo mbuli Yesu ncalekala.
7 Brothers, I am not writing you a new commandment, but an old commandment, which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the message you have heard from the beginning.
Omwasunika, nkandamulembelenga mulawo walino lino sobwe, nsombi niwepele usa ngomwalikwinshiba kufuma kumatatikilo. Mulawo uyu wakeendi emakani onka ngomwalanyumfwa.
8 Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.
Necikabeco mulawo uyu ngondamulembelenga niwalino lino pakwinga cakubinga cawo cilabonekelenga patuba muli Yesu kayi ne muli njamwe. Lino mushinshe ulenga akupwa kayi mumuni wancine ncine ulatatiki kubala kendi.
9 Whoever says he is in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness.
Na muntu wambeti uli mumumuni nsombi nkali wapatana ne munendi, muntu wamushoboyu ucili mumushinshe.
10 Whoever loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.
Uliyense usuni munendi uli mumumuni, Kayi muli endiye muliya cintu cela kulengesheti epishe.
11 But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
Muntu shikupana ne munendi ucili mumushinshe kayi ucenda mumushinshe pakwinga ulamupofolo mensu.
12 I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you on account of his name.
Ndalembelenga njamwe mobana bame, pakwinga ukute kumulekelela bwipishi bwenu cebo ca Yesu Klistu.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I am writing to you, children, because you know the Father.
Ndalembelenga njamwe mobamashali bakame batuloba pakwinga mumwishi uyo walikubako kufuma kumatatikilo. Ndalembelenga njamwe batuloba batwanike pakwinga mulamukomo waipa.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
Ndalembelenga njamwe mobana bame pakwinga mumwinshi. Ndalembelenga njamwe mobashali bakame pakwinga mumwinshi uyo walikubako kufuma kumatatikilo. Ndalembelenga njamwe batuloba batwanike pakwinga mulamukomo waipa.
15 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
Kamutasuna cishi capanshi ne bintu byonse bilimo. Pakwinga na muntu lasunu cishi capanshi, ekwambeti nkabasuni Bata.
16 For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not from the Father, but from the world.
Pakwinga byonse bya pacishi capanshi, ekwambeti ibyo mubili mbyoula kumbwanga, ne byonse bantu mbyobala kumbwanga na balabibono ne byonse byeshikulengesha muntu kulisumpula nkabikute kufuma kuli Bata nsombi bikute kufuma mucishi.
17 And the world is passing away along with its lusts, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. (aiōn g165)
Lino cishi nebintu bili mukati ibyo bantu mbyobakute kukumbwa bilapitinga, nsombi abo balenshinga luyando lwa Lesa nibakekale muyayayaya. (aiōn g165)
18 Children, it is the last hour, and just as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
Mobana bame kupwa kwa cishi kulipepi, mwalanyumfwa kwambeti mulwani wa Yesu Klistu nakese, nomba balwani ba Yesu Klistu balesa kendi bangi. Neco tucinshi kwambeti kupwa kwa cishi kulipepi.
19 They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But they went out so that it might be revealed that they do not belong to us.
Aba bantu nkabali kuba likoto lyetu weco ncobalatushila, pakwinga nebali kuba ba likoto lyetu nebalekala nenjafwe. Nsombi balatushiya kwambeti cinshibiketi nkabalipo mukalikoto ketu.
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
Nsombi amwe Yesu walamupa Mushimu Uswepa, neco mucinshi cakubinga.
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.
Nkandamulembelenga makani awa pacebo cakwambeti nkamucinshi cakubinga, nsombi amwe mucinshi kwambeti kuliyawa bundengamano bweshi kufuma mucakubinga.
22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? Anyone who denies the Father and the Son is an antichrist.
Nomba mubepeshi niyani? Ni uyo labulunga kusumineti Yesu ni Mupulushi. Bantu bamushoboyu ebalwani ba Yesu, pakwinga balakana Bata ne Mwana.
23 No one who denies the Son has the Father.
Uliyense lakananga Mwana lakananga ne Bata. Lanyumfwilinga Mwana uli ne Bata.
24 Therefore let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you have heard from the beginning abides in you, then you will abide in the Son and in the Father.
Nsombi amwe bintu ibyo mbyomwalanyumfwa pakuyamba bibe mumyoyo yenu. Na mulasungu mulumbe uyu numwikale muli Mwana ne Bata kwa muyayaya.
Neco ncalashomesha kupa nibuyumi butapu. (aiōnios g166)
26 I have written these things to you concerning those who are trying to deceive you.
Ndamulembelenga makani awa pacebo ca abo balayandanga kumubepa.
27 But the anointing you received from him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. But the same anointing teaches you about all things; it is true, not a lie. So, just as it has taught you, you must abide in him.
Nsombi amwe, Yesu Klistu walamupa Mushimu Uswepa ukute kwikala muli njamwe. Neco nkakulayandikinga shikwiyisha naumbi, pakwinga Mushimu Uswepa ngomwalatambula ukute kumwiyisha byonse, kayi mbyokute kumwiyisha nibyakubinga ntebyo bya bundengamano. Pacebo ico kamwikalilila muli Yesu kwelana mbuli ncalamwiyisha.
28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he is revealed we may have confidence and not shrink away from him in shame when he comes back.
Lino mobana bame kamwikalilila muli endiye kwamwambeti pabushiku mpoti akese, katutakanyumfwa buyowa ne nsoni.
29 If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.
Nomba pakwinga mucinshi kwambeti Yesu Klistu waswepa, kayi mwelela lino kwinshiba kwambeti uliyense lenshinga bintu byaina ni Mwana wa Lesa.
