1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the word of life;
Sa ki te ye depi kòmansman an, sa ke nou te tande, sa ke nou te wè avèk zye nou yo, sa ke nou te byen konnen, epi te manyen avèk men nou yo, konsènan Pawòl Lavi a;
2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and testify, and show to you that eternal life which was with the Father, and was manifested to us; ) (aiōnios g166)
epi lavi te vin parèt pou l vizib e nou te wè l, epi tande l, epi pwoklame a nou menm lavi etènèl la, ki te avèk Papa a, epi te fè parèt byen klè a nou. (aiōnios g166)
3 That which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
Sa ke nou te wè epi tande, nou pwoklame a nou menm osi ke nou kapab genyen kominyon avèk nou. Konsa vrèman, kominyon nou se avèk Papa a, epi avèk Fis Li, Jésus Kri.
4 And these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
Epi bagay sa yo nou ekri, pou lajwa nou kapab vin konplèt.
5 This then is the message which we have heard from him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Men mesaj la ke nou te tande a Li, epi te anonse a nou menm, ke Bondye se limyè, epi nan Li nanpwen tenèb ditou.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
Si nou di ke nou gen kominyon avè Li, men nou mache nan tenèb la, nou manti epi pa pratike laverite a.
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
Men si nou mache nan limyè a, menm jan ke Li menm se nan limyè a, nou gen kominyon youn avèk lòt, epi san a Jésus, Fis Li, netwaye nou de tout peche.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Si nou di ke nou pa gen peche, n ap pase pwòp tèt nou nan desepsyon, epi laverite a pa nan nou.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Si nou konfese peche nou yo, Li se fidèl epi jis pou padonnen nou peche nou yo, epi pou netwaye nou de tout mal.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Epi si nou di ke nou pa peche, nou fè Li menm yon mantè, epi pawòl Li pa nan nou.
