1 John 3
1 Se ye what maner charite the fadir yaf to vs, that we be named the sones of God, and ben hise sones. For this thing the world knewe not vs, for it knew not hym.
Monhwɛ ɔdɔ a Agya no dɔ yɛn. Ne dɔ a ɔdɔ yɛn no mu den nti wɔfrɛ yɛn Onyankopɔn mma. Na ɛyɛ nokware nso. Ne saa nti wiase nnim yɛn efisɛ ennim Onyankopɔn.
2 Moost dere britheren, now we ben the sones of God, and yit it apperide not, what we schulen be. We witen, that whanne he schal appere, we schulen be lijk hym, for we schulen se hym as he is.
Me nuanom, mprempren yɛyɛ Onyankopɔn mma, nanso nea daakye yɛbɛyɛ de, yennim. Nanso yenim sɛ Kristo ba a, yɛbɛyɛ sɛ ɔno, efisɛ yebehu no sɛnea ɔte.
3 And ech man that hath this hope in hym, makith hym silf hooli, as he is hooli.
Obiara a ɔwɔ saa anidaso yi wɔ Kristo mu no yɛ ne ho kronkron sɛnea Kristo yɛ kronkron no.
4 Ech man that doith synne, doith also wickidnesse, and synne is wickidnesse.
Obiara a ɔyɛ bɔne no bu Onyankopɔn mmara so, efisɛ bɔne yɛ mmara sobu.
5 And ye witen, that he apperide to do awei synnes, and synne is not in hym.
Munim sɛ Kristo bae se ɔrebɛfa nnipa bɔne, efisɛ ɔno de, bɔne nni ne mu.
6 Ech man that dwellith in hym, synneth not; and ech that synneth, seeth not hym, nether knew hym.
Enti obiara a ɔtena Kristo mu no nkɔ so nyɛ bɔne. Na obiara a ɔkɔ so yɛ bɔne no nhuu no, na onnim no.
7 Litle sones, no man disseyue you; he that doith riytwysnesse, is iust, as also he is iust.
Mommma obi nnaadaa mo, me mma. Obiara a ɔyɛ nea ɛteɛ no yɛ ɔtreneeni sɛnea Kristo yɛ ɔtreneeni no.
8 He that doith synne, is of the deuel; for the deuel synneth fro the bigynnyng. In this thing the sone of God apperide, that he vndo the werkis of the deuel.
Nea ɔkɔ so yɛ bɔne no yɛ ɔbonsam de, efisɛ ɔbonsam fi mfiase pɛe, na ɔyɛɛ bɔne. Saa asɛm yi nti na Onyankopɔn Ba no bae. Ɔbaa sɛ ɔrebɛsɛe ɔbonsam nnwuma.
9 Ech man that is borun of God, doith not synne; for the seed of God dwellith in hym, and he may not do synne, for he is borun of God.
Obiara a ɔyɛ Onyankopɔn Ba no nkɔ so nyɛ bɔne, efisɛ Onyankopɔn su wɔ ne mu, na esiane sɛ Onyankopɔn yɛ nʼAgya nti, ontumi nkɔ so nyɛ bɔne.
10 In this thing the sones of God ben knowun, and the sones of the feend. Ech man that is not iust, is not of God, and he that loueth not his brothir.
Nsonoe a ɛda Onyankopɔn mma ne ɔbonsam mma ntam ne sɛ, obi a ɔnyɛ papa anaa ɔnnɔ ne nua no nyɛ Onyankopɔn ba.
11 For this is the tellyng, that ye herden at the bigynnyng, that ye loue ech othere;
Nsɛm a motee mfiase no kyerɛ sɛ, monnodɔ mo ho.
12 not as Caym, that was of the yuele, and slouy his brother. And for what thing slouy he him? for hise werkis weren yuele, and hise brotheris iust.
Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛyɛ sɛ Kain. Na ɔyɛ ɔbonsam de. Enti okum nʼankasa ne nua. Adɛn nti na Kain kum no? Efisɛ nneɛma a ɔyɛe no yɛ bɔne, nanso ne nua no de, ɔyɛɛ papa.
13 Britheren, nyle ye wondre, if the world hatith you.
Enti anuanom, sɛ wiasefo tan mo a, mommma ɛnyɛ mo nwonwa.
14 We witen, that we ben translatid fro deeth to lijf, for we louen britheren. He that loueth not, dwellith in deth.
Yenim sɛ yɛafi owu mu aba nkwa mu. Yenim saa, efisɛ yɛdɔ yɛn nuanom.
15 Ech man that hatith his brother, is a man sleere; and ye witen, that ech mansleere hath not euerlastinge lijf dwellinge in hym. (aiōnios g166)
Obi a ɔtan ne nua no yɛ owudifo na munim nso sɛ owudifo nni nkwa a enni awiei wɔ ne mu. (aiōnios g166)
16 In this thing we han knowe the charite of God, for he puttide his lijf for vs, and we owen to putte oure lyues for oure britheren.
Eyi na ɛma yehu sɛnea ɔdɔ te. Kristo de ne nkwa maa yɛn. Ɛsɛ sɛ yɛn nso yɛde yɛn nkwa ma yɛn nuanom.
17 He that hath the catel of this world, and seeth that his brothir hath nede, and closith his entrailis fro hym, hou dwellith the charite of God in hym?
Sɛ obi yɛ ɔdefo na ohu sɛ biribi ho hia ne nua na wanhu no mmɔbɔ a, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na watumi aka se ɔdɔ Onyankopɔn wɔ ne koma mu?
18 Mi litle sones, loue we not in word, nethir in tunge, but in werk and treuthe.
Me mma, ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛn dɔ no yɛ kasa hunu. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɛyɛ ɔdɔ turodoo a ɛnam nneyɛe so da ne ho adi.
19 In this thing we knowen, that we ben of treuthe, and in his siyt we monesten oure hertis.
Eyi na ɛbɛma yɛahu sɛ yɛwɔ nokware no. Eyi na ɛbɛma yɛn koma anya gyidi wɔ Onyankopɔn anim.
20 For if oure herte repreueth vs, God is more than oure hert, and knowith alle thingis.
Sɛ yɛn koma bu yɛn fɔ mpo a, yenim sɛ Onyankopɔn so sen yɛn koma, na onim biribiara.
21 Moost dere britheren, if oure herte repreueth not vs, we han trust to God;
Enti anuanom adɔfo, sɛ yɛn koma ammu yɛn fɔ a, yɛwɔ akokoduru wɔ Onyankopɔn anim.
22 and what euer we schulen axe, we schulen resseyue of hym, for we kepen hise comaundementis, and we don tho thingis that ben plesaunt bifor hym.
Biribiara a yebisa no no, yɛn nsa ka, efisɛ yedi ne mmara so na yɛyɛ nʼapɛde nso.
23 And this is the comaundement of God, that we bileue in the name of his sone Jhesu Crist, and that we loue ech othere, as he yaf heeste to vs.
Ne mmara no ka se, yennye ne Ba Yesu Kristo no din nni na yɛnnodɔ yɛn ho yɛn ho sɛnea Kristo hyɛɛ yɛn no.
24 And he that kepith hise comaundementis, dwellith in hym, and he in hym. And in this thing we witen, that he dwellith in vs, bi the spirit, whom he yaf to vs.
Obiara a odi Onyankopɔn mmara so no te Onyankopɔn mu na Onyankopɔn nso te ne mu. Na eyi na ɛma yehu sɛ Onyankopɔn te yɛn mu. Yenim no saa esiane Honhom a wama yɛn no nti.
