1 John 5
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born from God, and whoever loves a father also loves the child born from him.
Olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó bá gbàgbọ́ pé Jesu ni Kristi, a bí i nípa ti Ọlọ́run: àti olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó fẹ́ràn. Ẹni tí ó bi nì, ó fẹ́ràn ẹni tí a bí nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú.
2 Because of this we know that we love God's children, when we love God and do his commandments.
Nípa èyí ni àwa mọ̀ pé àwa fẹ́ràn àwọn ọmọ Ọlọ́run, nígbà tí a bá fẹ́ràn Ọlọ́run, tí a sì ń pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́.
3 For this is love for God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.
Nítorí èyí ni ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run, pé kí àwa pa òfin rẹ̀ mọ́: òfin rẹ̀ kò sì nira,
4 For everyone who is born from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
nítorí olúkúlùkù ẹni tí a bí nípa tí Ọlọ́run, ó ṣẹ́gun ayé. Èyí sì ni ìṣẹ́gun tí ó ṣẹ́gun ayé, àní ìgbàgbọ́ wa.
5 Who is the one who overcomes the world? The one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
Ta ni ẹni tí ó ṣẹ́gun ayé, bí kò ṣe ẹni tí ó gbàgbọ́ pé Ọmọ Ọlọ́run ni Jesu jẹ́?
6 This is the one who came by water and blood: Jesus Christ. He came not only by water, but also by water and blood.
Èyí ni ẹni tí ó wá nípa omi àti ẹ̀jẹ̀, Jesu Kristi, kì í ṣe nípa omi nìkan, bí kò ṣe nípa omi àti ẹ̀jẹ̀. Àti pé Ẹ̀mí ni ó sì ń jẹ́rìí, nítorí pé òtítọ́ ni Ẹ̀mí.
7 For there are three who bear witness:
Nítorí pé àwọn mẹ́ta ni ó ń jẹ́rìí.
8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood. These three are in agreement.
Ẹ̀mí, omi, àti ẹ̀jẹ̀: àwọn mẹ́tẹ̀ẹ̀ta sì wà ni ìṣọ̀kan.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For the testimony of God is this, that he has borne witness concerning his Son.
Bí àwa ba ń gba ẹ̀rí ènìyàn, ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run tóbi jù: nítorí ẹ̀rí Ọlọ́run ni èyí pé, Ó tí jẹ́rìí ní ti Ọmọ rẹ̀.
10 Anyone who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the witness that God has given concerning his Son.
Ẹni tí ó bá gba Ọmọ Ọlọ́run gbọ́, ó ni ẹ̀rí nínú ara rẹ̀; ẹni tí kò bá gba Ọlọ́run gbọ́, ó ti mú un ni èké; nítorí kò gba ẹ̀rí náà gbọ́ tí Ọlọ́run jẹ́ ní ti Ọmọ rẹ̀.
Ẹ̀rí náà sì ni èyí pé Ọlọ́run fún wa ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun, ìyè yìí sì ń bẹ nínú Ọmọ rẹ̀. (aiōnios g166)
12 The one who has the Son has life. The one who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Ẹni tí ó bá ni Ọmọ, ó ni ìyè; ẹni tí kò bá sì ni Ọmọ Ọlọ́run, kò ní ìyè.
13 I have written to you these things so that you will know that you have eternal life—to you who believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
Nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni mo kọ̀wé rẹ̀ sí yín, àní sí ẹ̀yin tí ó gba orúkọ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run gbọ́; kí ẹ̀yin lè mọ̀ pé ẹ̀yin ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun, àní fún ẹ̀yin tí ó gba orúkọ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run gbọ́. (aiōnios g166)
14 Also, this is the confidence we have before him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
Èyí sì ni ìgboyà tí àwa ní níwájú rẹ̀, pé bí àwa bá béèrè ohunkóhun gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìfẹ́ rẹ̀, ó ń gbọ́ tí wa.
15 Also, if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask of him—we know that we have whatever we have asked of him.
Bí àwa bá sì mọ̀ pé ó ń gbọ́ tí wa, ohunkóhun tí àwa bá béèrè, àwa mọ̀ pé àwa rí ìbéèrè tí àwa ti béèrè lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ gbà.
16 If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not result in death, he must pray, and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not result in death. There is a sin that results in death; I am not saying that he should pray about that.
Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá rí arákùnrin rẹ̀ tí ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ tí kì í ṣe sí ikú, òun yóò béèrè, Ọlọ́run yóò sì fún un ni ìyè, àní, fún àwọn tí ń dẹ́ṣẹ̀ tí kì í ṣe sí ikú. Ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kan ń bẹ sì ikú, èmi kò wí pé ki òun gbàdúrà fún èyí.
17 All unrighteousness is sin, but there is sin that does not result in death.
Gbogbo àìṣòdodo ni ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ kan ń bẹ tí kì í ṣe sí ikú.
18 We know that whoever is born from God does not sin. But the one who was born from God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.
Àwa mọ̀ pé ẹnikẹ́ni tí a bí nípa ti Ọlọ́run kì í dẹ́ṣẹ̀: ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí a bí nípa tí Ọlọ́run a pa ara rẹ̀ mọ́, ẹni búburú kò ní lè fọwọ́ kàn án.
19 We know that we are from God, and we know that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
Àwa mọ̀ pé tí Ọlọ́run ni wá, àti gbogbo ayé ni ó wà lábẹ́ agbára ẹni búburú náà.
20 But we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. Also, we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This one is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Àwa sì mọ̀ pé Ọmọ Ọlọ́run dé, ó sì tí fi òye fún wa, kí àwa lè mọ ẹni tí í ṣe òtítọ́, àwa sì ń bẹ nínú ẹni tí í ṣe òtítọ́, àní, nínú Ọmọ rẹ̀, Jesu Kristi. Èyí ni Ọlọ́run òtítọ́, àti ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
21 Children, keep yourselves from idols.
Ẹ̀yin ọmọ mi, ẹ pa ara yín mọ́ kúrò nínú òrìṣà.
