1 John 5

1 Every one who is believing that Jesus is the Christ, of God he hath been begotten, and every one who is loving Him who did beget, doth love also him who is begotten of Him:

Obiara a ɔgye di sɛ Yesu yɛ Agyenkwa no yɛ Onyankopɔn ba. Na obiara a ɔdɔ Agya no dɔ ne mma no nso.

2 in this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God, and His commands may keep;

Yei na ɛma yɛhunu sɛ yɛdɔ Onyankopɔn mma; sɛ yɛbɛdɔ Onyankopɔn na yɛadi nʼahyɛdeɛ so.

3 for this is the love of God, that His commands we may keep, and His commands are not burdensome;

Ɔdɔ a yɛdɔ Onyankopɔn no kyerɛ di a yɛdi nʼahyɛdeɛ so. Na nʼahyɛdeɛ no nso sodie nyɛ den mma yɛn,

4 because every one who is begotten of God doth overcome the world, and this is the victory that did overcome the world — our faith;

ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn ba biara di ewiase so nkonim. Yɛnam yɛn gyidie so di ewiase so nkonim.

5 who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?

Hwan na ɔbɛtumi adi ewiase so nkonim? Obi a ɔgye di sɛ Yesu yɛ Onyankopɔn Ba no nko ara.

6 This one is he who did come through water and blood — Jesus the Christ, not in the water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit it is that is testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,

Yesu Kristo yɛ obi a ɔnam nsuo ne mogya so baeɛ. Ɛnyɛ nsuo nko so na ɔnam baeɛ na mmom, nsuo ne mogya. Na ɛyɛ Honhom no na ɛdi ho adanseɛ ɛfiri sɛ, Honhom no ne nokorɛ no.

7 because three are who are testifying [in the heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these — the three — are one;

Adansefoɔ baasa na wɔwɔ hɔ.

8 and three are who are testifying in the earth], the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are into the one.

Honhom no, nsuo no ne mogya no. Saa adansefoɔ yi adwene hyia.

9 If the testimony of men we receive, the testimony of God is greater, because this is the testimony of God that He hath testified concerning His Son.

Yɛgye adanseɛ a nnipa di no di; nanso adanseɛ a Onyankopɔn di no mu yɛ den yie. Na saa adanseɛ no na Onyankopɔn adi afa ne Ba no ho no.

10 He who is believing in the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself; he who is not believing God, a liar hath made Him, because he hath not believed in the testimony that God hath testified concerning His Son;

Enti, obi a ɔgye Onyankopɔn Ba no di no agye saa adanseɛ yi adi wɔ nʼakoma mu. Na obi a ɔnnye Onyankopɔn nni no ama Onyankopɔn ayɛ ɔtorofoɔ, ɛfiri sɛ, wannye adanseɛ a Onyankopɔn di faa ne Ba no ho anni.

11 and this is the testimony, that life age-during did God give to us, and this — the life — is in His Son; (aiōnios g166)

Yei ne adanseɛ no: Onyankopɔn ama yɛn nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ; na saa nkwa no wɔ ne Ba no mu. (aiōnios g166)

12 he who is having the Son, hath the life; he who is not having the Son of God — the life he hath not.

Obiara a ɔwɔ Ɔba no wɔ saa nkwa no, na obiara a ɔnni Ɔba no nni nkwa no.

13 These things I did write to you who are believing in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that life ye have age-during, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)

Mo a mogye Onyankopɔn Ba no din di no, meretwerɛ mo yei sɛdeɛ ɛbɛma moahunu sɛ mowɔ nkwa a ɛnni awieeɛ. (aiōnios g166)

14 And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,

Na anidasoɔ a yɛwɔ wɔ Onyankopɔn anim ne sɛ, yɛnim sɛ biribiara a yɛbisa no wɔ ne pɛ mu no, ɔtie yɛn.

15 and if we have known that He doth hear us, whatever we may ask, we have known that we have the requests that we have requested from Him.

Ɛberɛ biara a yɛbisa no no, ɔtie yɛn. Yɛahunu sɛ yei yɛ nokorɛ yi, yɛnim nso sɛ ɔma yɛn deɛ yɛbisa no biara.

16 If any one may see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give to him life to those sinning not unto death; there is sin to death, not concerning it do I speak that he may beseech;

Sɛ obi hunu sɛ ne nua ayɛ bɔne bi a ɛmfa no nkɔ owuo mu a, ɔmmɔ Onyankopɔn a ɔbɛma no nkwa no mpaeɛ mma no. Yei fa wɔn a wɔn bɔne mfa wɔn nkɔ owuo mu no ho. Bɔne bi wɔ hɔ a ɛde onipa kɔ owuo mu na ɛno ho deɛ, menka sɛ mommɔ ho mpaeɛ nkyerɛ Onyankopɔn.

17 all unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not unto death.

Afideyɛ nyinaa yɛ bɔne, nanso bɔne bi wɔ hɔ a ɛnkɔwie owuo mu.

18 We have known that every one who hath been begotten of God doth not sin, but he who was begotten of God doth keep himself, and the evil one doth not touch him;

Yɛnim sɛ Onyankopɔn ba biara nkɔ so nyɛ bɔne, ɛfiri sɛ, Onyankopɔn Ba no bɔ wɔn ho ban, na ɔbonsam ntumi nyɛ wɔn bɔne.

19 we have known that of God we are, and the whole world in the evil doth lie;

Yɛnim sɛ yɛyɛ Onyankopɔn mma, na ewiasefoɔ deɛ wɔhyɛ ɔbonsam tumi ase.

20 and we have known that the Son of God is come, and hath given us a mind, that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this one is the true God and the life age-during! (aiōnios g166)

Yɛnim sɛ Onyankopɔn Ba no aba, na wama yɛahunu nokorɛ Onyankopɔn no. Ɔno ne Onyankopɔn nokwafoɔ a ɔma daa nkwa no. (aiōnios g166)

21 Little children, guard yourselves from the idols! Amen.

Me mma, montwe mo ho mfiri abosom ho.
