1 John 5
1 Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten by him.
Indi wa akpa yiem di yesu a kristi bagrji u rji ni Irji inde di wa a kpayiem ni ti'a naki ani yiem ni vre wa ba grji ni u.
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
Ahe naki ki toh di ki kpayiem mri Irji inde ki yiem ni Irji di zi tre ma.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.
Naki wa yi a yiem u'Irji: wa ki yiem ni tre ma kuma itre ma ba na u' di'na.
4 For whatever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, [even] our faith.
Du ndi wa ba grji rji ni Irji ani zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu. Nakima hi nasara wa a zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu wato jaji bu.
5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
Ahi wu han wa a zan gbengbenlen gbugbulu'a? Ahi ndi wa a kpa yeim di yesu a vre Irji.
6 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth testimony, because the Spirit is truth.
Wa yi i, hi wa aye ni ma mba yin Yesu kristi aye ni ma ni kangrji na, ama ni ma ba yin.
7 For there are three that bear testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.
A baba tra wa ba kpa yiem:
8 And there are three that bear testimony on earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
Ni Ruhu ni ma u ni yin. Bi yi tra ba ti yaje jeniya ni kpa mba. Ifiift Greek bi sen ba han kpi didima.
9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God which he hath testified of his Son.
Inde ki kpa jaji u ndi, jaji u Irji a zan wayi hi testimony u' Irji wa a kpa yeim ni vre ma.
10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God, hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed the testimony that God gave of his Son.
Du ndi wa a kpayeim ni vre Irji ahei ni testimony ni suron ma indi wa ana kpayeim ni Irji na a kma u'ti ndi u' che don ana kpayeim ni testimony wa Irji no nitu vre ma na.
11 And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life: and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
Testimony a wa yi, Irji nota son u'tutrun u rei ki hei ni mi vre ma. (aiōnios g166)
12 He that hath the Son, hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of God, hath not life.
Indi wa ahei ni vre'a ahei ni rei. Indi wa ana hei ni vre Irji na ana hei ni rei na.
13 These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
Mi han kpie bi i ni yu'u du yi toh di bi hei ni rei u' tutrun ni ndi wa kpa yeim ni de vre Irji. (aiōnios g166)
14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
Wa yi hi gbengbenlen wa ki hei ni u, du ikpie wa ki miye wa hei di di ni mere ma ani woh ta.
15 And if we know that he heareth us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired from him.
Naki inde ki toh dani wota ko ahi gye ki miye, ki ka toh di ikpie wa ki miye ki kpa ye.
16 If any man shall see his brother sin a sin [which is] not to death, he shall ask, and he will give him life for them that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
Inde ndi'a atoh vayi si ti latre wa ana tsra u' que na, wa ka bre Irji ni no rei, me gomace ni bi wa latre mba na kai u que na, Lahtre ri hei wa atsra u que, mina tre di du bre nitu kima na.
17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not to death.
Dukikpie u' meme ma a lahtre na ki lahtre wa ana tsra'u que na.
18 We know that whoever is born of God, sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God, keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
Kitoh du ndi wa ba grji'u rji ni Irji ana ti lahtre na. Naki u wa ba grji rji ni Irji gyegyere u bi ibrji na iya da ti u meme na.
19 [And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
Ki toh di kita ki rji ni Irji kuma kitoh di gbugbulu wawu ahei ni mi gbengbenlen bi brji.
20 And we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, [even] in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Na ki ki to di ver Rji ye buh shishi ni ta u di wa yi hi jaji, ki hei ni wu wa wu hi hi jaji ni mi ver ma Yesu kristi. Iwayi yi a Rji u jaji u son kibo (tutrun). (aiōnios g166)
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
Imir na cib hi ni bi birji na
