1 John 2
1 Dear children, I write thus to you in order that you may not sin. If any one sins, we have an Advocate with the Father--Jesus Christ the righteous;
Shi ahanaa am acicinca, imum igeme sa ma nyertike shi ni barki kati iwuzi imum iburi. Ingi uye ma wuza imum iburi tizin unu nu ubenki ahira uvanah asere unu zatu madini.
2 and He is an atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
Me mani maa nya nice ni meme barki akpici madini maru, d aki maru cas ba, barki mu une vat.
3 And by this we may know that we know Him--if we obey His commands.
Barki ani me, ti rusa me, ingi ti inso tize ti meme.
4 He who professes to know Him, and yet does not obey His commands, is a liar, and the truth has no place in his heart.
Desa ma guna, “In rusa Asere,” ingi inki mada inso me tize time me, una macico mani. Kadure ka zome anyimo me ba.
5 But whoever obeys His Message, in him love for God has in very deed reached perfection. By this we can know that we are in Him.
Vat desa ma canti tize ta Asere, kadure me mani ma tarsa Asere. Utarsa ukadure ane ani tidi rusi ti raa anyimo ameme.
6 The man who professes to be continuing in Him is himself also bound to live as He lived.
Koda vi desa ma guna ma ciki anyimo Asere, me inni ce nimeme ca ma cukuno gussi Asere me.
7 My dearly-loved friends, it is no new command that I am now giving you, but an old command which you have had from the very beginning. By the old command I mean the teaching which you have already received.
Shi nihenu daki imum isoo ini ma nyertike shi ni ba, imum igino ini sa isa russa dati, tize ta Asere sa yamu kunna.
8 And yet I am giving you a new command, for such it really is, so far as both He and you are concerned: because the darkness is now passing away and the light, the true light, is already beginning to shine.
Har kani tize tiso tigino me tini izini nyetike ushi nin, tize me kadure kani ahira Asere nan ahira shi, barki maree mazinu agiza, masaa manzinu bara ahira.
9 Any one who professes to be in the light and yet hates his brother man is still in darkness.
Desa maguna ma raa anyimo masaa ma game uhenu umeme ma daza anyimo amareu a'ana me.
10 He who loves his brother man continues in the light, and his life puts no stumbling-block in the way of others.
Desa ma nyara uhenu, ma ciki anyimo a masaa, i mum ipilko i zome ahira ame ba.
11 But he who hates his brother man is in darkness and is walking in darkness; and he does not know where he is going--because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
Unu game uhenu, ma raa ama ree, a nyimo amree mani ma haka ni, ma taa me ahira sa ma patala, barki maree ma wuna me irubo.
12 I am writing to you, dear children, because for His sake your sins are forgiven you.
Ma nyertike shi ni ahana iriba im, barki a kpico madini mashi me anyimo aniza nimeme.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.
Shi ananu ma nyertike shi nin barki sa irusa me, desa mazi datti utuba, shi masoo ma nyertike shi ni barki ya re nikara ninu uburi. Ma nyertike shi nin ahana acinci, barki irusa aco me. Ma nyertike shi nin ananu, barki irusa me desa marani datti unu tuba.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and God's Message still has a place in your hearts, and you have overcome the Evil one.
M a nyertike shi nin masoo barki sa izin ini kara tize ta Asere ti ciki anyimo ashi me. Ya re nikara ninu uburi.
15 Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If any one loves the world, there is no love in his heart for the Father.
Kati i tarsi une ba, nani imum me sa sa ira anyimo une vat desa ma tarsa une daki ma hem in Asere ba.
16 For the things in the world--the cravings of the earthly nature, the cravings of the eyes, the show and pride of life--they all come, not from the Father, but from the world.
Barki vat imum me sa ira anyimo kasi katuma kani pum, mei maje, ubezi ubari, daa katuma Asere kani ba ku une kani.
17 And the world, with its cravings, is passing away, but he who does God's will continues for ever. (aiōn g165)
Une udi mari nan timum me vat. Desa ma tarsa tize ta Asere madi vengize sarki ibinani. (aiōn g165)
18 Dear children, the last hour has come; and as you once heard that there was to be an anti-Christ, so even now many anti-Christs have appeared. By this we may know that the last hour has come.
Shi ahana am uganiya umara une wa aye, kasi ya kunna unu ishina Asere ma eze, ana me anu ishina ya Asere wamu, barki ane ani ta tinka tiye ti maraa une tini.
19 They have gone forth from our midst, but they did not really belong to us; for had they belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But they left us that it might be manifest that professed believers do not all belong to us.
Wa suro anyimo aru, datti daki aru wani wazi tida zo me nigome nan we, wa suro barki wa bezi une wa zo me anyimo aru ba.
20 As for you, you have an anointing from the holy One and have perfect knowledge.
Shi vat, unu lau ma kpico shi, vat ushi irusa kadure me.
21 I have written to you, not because you are ignorant of the truth, but because you know it, and you know that nothing false comes from the truth.
Ma nyertike shi sa ida tashi kadure kani ba, ko cin barki ikuri irusa kadure, i da zome macico ba.
22 Who is a liar compared with him who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He who disowns the Father and the Son is the anti-Christ.
Aveni una macico, nani desa ma game yesu vana Ugomo Asere? Unu ugino me mani unu zati madini uhem in Yesu, me mani unu game aco wan vana ume. Desa ma hem in vana me makem aco me.
23 No one who disowns the Son has the Father. He who acknowledges the Son has also the Father.
Vat desa ma game vana me, ma game aco me cangi, desa ma hem in vana me, ma hem in kaco me.
24 As for you, let the teaching which you have received from the very beginning continue in your hearts. If that teaching does continue in your hearts, you also will continue to be in union with the Son and with the Father.
Kasi shi, ca imum me sa ya kunna datti, i cukuno anyimo ashi.
Ingi imum me sa ya kunna datti ya cukuno anyimo ashi idi cukuno anyimo a vana me wan ka co me. (aiōnios g166)
26 I have thus written to you concerning those who are leading you astray.
Ma inko tize ti ge me barki an desa wa nyara uranga ushi.
27 And as for you, the anointing which you received from Him remains within you, and there is no need for any one to teach you. But since His anointing gives you instruction in all things--and is true and is no falsehood--you are continuing in union with Him even as it has taught you to do.
Shi, uvisa ugeme sa ya kem ahira ameme ura anyimo ashi me, ida kuri i nyari uye sa madi dungurka shi ba. Kasi uvisa ugino me une uni udungura shi ko nyani, kadure kani daki macico ba, gusi sa a dungurka shi, cukuno nin anyimo udungura me.
28 And now, dear children, continue in union with Him; so that, if He re-appears, we may have perfect confidence, and may not shrink away in shame from His presence at His Coming.
A'ana me, shi ahana am, cukuno nin anyimo ameme, barki ingi ma aye ma kem duru in nikara kati i cukuno imu i aje ameme ingi ma aye.
29 Since you know that He is righteous, be assured also that the man who habitually acts righteously is a child of His.
I rusa me unu zatu uma dini mani, d esa ma wuza imum iriri ayo me anyimo Asere ani.
