1 John 2
1 My little children, these things I write to you, that ye may not sin: and if any one may sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one,
E aku tamariki nonohi, ka tuhituhi atu nei ahau i enei mea ki a koutou, kia kaua ai koutou e hara. A ki te hara tetahi, he kaikorero mo tatou kei te Matua, ko Ihu Karaiti, ko te tika:
2 and he — he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world,
Ko ia ano te whakamarie mo o tatou hara: ehara i te mea mo o tatou anake, engari mo o te ao katoa.
3 and in this we know that we have known him, if his commands we may keep;
Ma konei hoki tatou ka matau ai kua matau tatou ki a ia, ki te puritia e tatou ana ture.
4 he who is saying, 'I have known him,' and his command is not keeping, a liar he is, and in him the truth is not;
Ki te mea tetahi, Kua matau ahau ki a ia, a kahore e pupuri i ana ture, he tangata teka ia, kahore hoki te pono i roto i a ia.
5 and whoever may keep his word, truly in him the love of God hath been perfected; in this we know that in him we are.
Ko te tangata e pupuri ana i tana kupu, kua tino rite pu i a ia te aroha o te Atua: ma konei tatou ka matau ai kei roto tatou i a ia:
6 He who is saying in him he doth remain, ought according as he walked also himself so to walk.
Ko te tangata e mea ana e noho ana ia i roto i a ia, ko te tikanga tenei mana, kia rite tana haere ki ta tera.
7 Brethren, a new command I write not to you, but an old command, that ye had from the beginning — the old command is the word that ye heard from the beginning;
E oku teina, ehara i te ture hou taku e tuhituhi atu nei ki a koutou, engari he ture tawhito, ko tera i a koutou o te timatanga iho ra ano: ko te ture tawhito ko te kupu kua rongo ra koutou.
8 again, a new command I write to you, which thing is true in him and in you, because the darkness doth pass away, and the true light doth now shine;
Na, he ture hou taku e tuhituhi atu nei, he mea pono i a ia, i a koutou hoki, e mahea atu ana hoki te pouri, a kua whiti ke mai te marama pono.
9 he who is saying, in the light he is, and his brother is hating, in the darkness he is till now;
Ko te tangata e mea ana kei te marama ia, a e mauahara ana ki tona teina, kei roto ia i te pouri a tae noa mai nei.
10 he who is loving his brother, in the light he doth remain, and a stumbling-block in him there is not;
Ko te tangata e aroha ana ki tona teina, e noho ana ia i roto i te marama, kahore hoki he tutukitanga waewae i roto i a ia.
11 and he who is hating his brother, in the darkness he is, and in the darkness he doth walk, and he hath not known whither he doth go, because the darkness did blind his eyes.
Ko te tangata ia e mauahara ana ki tona teina, kei te pouri ia, e haere ana ia i roto i te pouri, kahore hoki ona matauranga e haere ana ia ki hea, no te mea kua matapotia ona kanohi e te pouri.
12 I write to you, little children, because the sins have been forgiven you through his name;
Ka tuhituhi atu nei ahau ki a koutou, e nga tamariki nonohi, no te mea kua murua o koutou hara, he whakaaro hoki ki tona ingoa.
13 I write to you, fathers, because ye have known him who [is] from the beginning; I write to you, young men, because ye have overcome the evil. I write to you, little youths, because ye have known the Father:
Ka tuhituhi atu nei ahau ki a koutou, e nga matua, no te mea kua matau koutou ki a ia, ara ki to te timatanga. Ka tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou, e nga taitamariki, no te mea kua hinga i a koutou te wairua kino. Ka tuhituhi atu ahau ki a koutou, e nga tamariki nohinohi, no te mea kua matau koutou ki te Matua.
14 I did write to you, fathers, because ye have known him who [is] from the beginning; I did write to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God in you doth remain, and ye have overcome the evil.
I tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou, e nga matua, no te mea kua matau koutou ki a ia, ara ki to te timatanga. I tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou, e nga taitamariki, no te mea he kaha koutou, e mau ana hoki te kupu a te Atua i roto i a koutou, a k ua hinga i a koutou te wairua kino.
15 Love not ye the world, nor the things in the world; if any one doth love the world, the love of the Father is not in him,
Kaua e aroha ki te ao, kaua ano hoki ki nga mea o te ao. Ki te aroha tetahi ki te ao, kahore te aroha o te Matua i roto i a ia.
16 because all that [is] in the world — the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of the life — is not of the Father, but of the world,
Ko nga mea katoa hoki i te ao, te hiahia o te kikokiko, te hiahia o nga kanohi, me te whakapehapeha ki o te ao mea, ehara i te Matua, engari no te ao.
17 and the world doth pass away, and the desire of it, and he who is doing the will of God, he doth remain — to the age. (aiōn g165)
E pahemo atu ana hoki te ao, me tona hiahia: tena ko te tangata e mea ana i ta te Atua e pai ai, e noho tonu ana ia a ake ake. (aiōn g165)
18 Little youths, it is the last hour; and even as ye heard that the antichrist doth come, even now antichrists have become many — whence we know that it is the last hour;
E nga tamariki nonohi, ko te haora whakamutunga tenei: ka rite hoki ki ta koutou i rongo ai, e haere mai ana te anatikaraiti; na, kua tokomaha nei nga anatikaraiti; ma konei tatou ka matau ai ko te haora whakamutunga tenei.
19 out of us they went forth, but they were not of us, for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but — that they might be manifested that they are not all of us.
I haere atu ratou i roto i a tatou, ehara ia i te mea no tatou ratou; mehemea hoki no tatou ratou, kua noho tonu ki a tatou: otiia kua haere atu ratou kia whakakitea ai ehara ratou katoa i a tatou.
20 And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and have known all things;
Na he whakawahinga ano to koutou na te Mea Tapu; e matau ana ano hoki koutou ki nga mea katoa.
21 I did not write to you because ye have not known the truth, but because ye have known it, and because no lie is of the truth.
Ehara i te mea i tuhituhi atu ai ahau ki a koutou no te mea kahore koutou e matau ki te pono, engari no te mea e matau ana koutou, no te mea hoki kahore he teka i puta ake i te pono.
22 Who is the liar, except he who is denying that Jesus is the Christ? this one is the antichrist who is denying the Father and the Son;
Ko wai koia te tangata teka? he teka ianei ko te tangata e mea ana, Ehara a Ihu i te Karaiti? Ko te anatikaraiti tenei, ko te tangata e whakakahore ana ki te Matua, ki te Tama.
23 every one who is denying the Son, neither hath he the Father, [he who is confessing the Son hath the Father also.]
Ko nga tangata katoa e whakakahore ana ki te Tama, kahore te Matua i a ratou: ko te tangata e whakaae ana ki te Tama, kei a ia ano hoki te Matua.
24 Ye, then, that which ye heard from the beginning, in you let it remain; if in you may remain that which from the beginning ye did hear, ye also in the Son and in the Father shall remain,
Na, kia mau ki roto ki a koutou ta koutou i rongo ai no te timatanga ra ano. Ki te mea ka mau i roto i a koutou ta koutou i rongo ai no te timatanga ra ano, e mau ano koutou i roto i te Tama, i roto ano hoki i te Matua.
Ko te mea ano hoki tenei i whakaaria mai nei e ia ki a tatou, ko te ora tonu. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things I did write to you concerning those leading you astray;
I tuhituhia atu e ahau enei mea ki a koutou, mo te hunga e mea ana ki te whakapohehe i a koutou.
27 and you, the anointing that ye did receive from him, in you it doth remain, and ye have no need that any one may teach you, but as the same anointing doth teach you concerning all, and is true, and is not a lie, and even as was taught you, ye shall remain in him.
Otiia e mau ana ano i roto i a koutou tana whakawahinga kua riro na i a koutou: kahore hoki o koutou mea e whakaakona ai koutou e tetahi: ko tana whakawahinga ia e whakaako na i a koutou ki nga mea katoa, he pono tonu, kahore hoki he teka, kia r ite ra ki tana i whakaako ai i a koutou to koutou mau ki roto ki a ia.
28 And now, little children, remain in him, that when he may be manifested, we may have boldness, and may not be ashamed before him, in his presence;
Na inaianei, e nga tamariki nohinohi, kia mau ki roto ki a ia; kia whai maiatanga ai tatou ina puta mai ia, kei whakama hoki ki a ia ina tae mai ia.
29 if ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every one doing the righteousness, of him hath been begotten.
Ki te matau koutou he tika ia, ka matau koutou he mea whanau nana nga tangata katoa e mea ana i te tika.
