< 1 Johana 5 >

1 Mũndũ o wothe wĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ aciarĩtwo nĩ Ngai, nake mũndũ o wothe wendete mũciari nĩendete o na mwana wake.
Every man who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten from God, and every man who loves him who begot, also loves him who has been begotten from him.
2 Ũũ nĩguo tũmenyaga atĩ nĩtwendete ciana cia Ngai: nĩ kwenda Ngai na kũhingia maathani make.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
3 Ũũ nĩguo kwenda Ngai: nĩ gwathĩkĩra maathani make. Namo maathani make ti maritũ,
For this is the love of God, that we may keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.
4 Nĩgũkorwo mũndũ o wothe mũciare nĩ Ngai nĩatooragia maũndũ ma thĩ. Naguo ũhootani ũrĩa ũtooretie maũndũ ma thĩ, nĩ gwĩtĩkia gwitũ.
Because everything that has been begotten from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.
5 Nũũ ũcio ũtooragia maũndũ ma thĩ? Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩtĩkĩtie atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai.
And who is he who overcomes the world, if not he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 We nĩwe wokire na ũndũ wa maaĩ na thakame, o Jesũ Kristũ. We ndokire na ũndũ wa maaĩ moiki, no nĩwe wokire na ũndũ wa maaĩ na thakame. Nake Roho nĩwe mũira, tondũ Roho nĩwe ũhoro ũrĩa wa ma.
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not by the water only, but by the water and the blood. And it is the Spirit that testifies, because the Spirit is truth.
7 Nĩgũkorwo aira nĩ atatũ (kũu igũrũ: nao nĩ Ithe witũ, na Ũhoro, na Roho Mũtheru; nao aya atatũ nĩ ũmwe. Gũkũ thĩ nakuo aira nĩ atatũ):
Because those who testify are three:
8 nao nĩ Roho, na maaĩ, na thakame; nao acio atatũ nĩmaiguanĩte.
the Spirit, and the water, and the blood. And the three are in one.
9 Angĩkorwo nĩtwĩtĩkagĩra ũira wa mũndũ, ũira wa Ngai nĩ mũnene makĩria, tondũ nĩ ũira wa Ngai ũrĩa aheanĩte ũkoniĩ Mũriũ.
If we accept the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. Because this is the testimony of God that he has testified about his Son.
10 Mũndũ wothe wĩtĩkĩtie Mũrũ wa Ngai arĩ na ũira ũcio ngoro-inĩ yake. Mũndũ wothe ũtetĩkĩtie Ngai nĩamũtuĩte wa maheeni, tondũ ndetĩkĩtie ũira ũrĩa mũheane nĩ Ngai ũkoniĩ Mũriũ.
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified about his Son.
11 Naguo ũyũ nĩguo ũira atĩ Ngai nĩatũheete muoyo wa tene na tene, naguo muoyo ũcio wĩ thĩinĩ wa Mũriũ. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the testimony, that God gave eternal life to us, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Ũrĩa ũrĩ na Mũriũ arĩ na muoyo; nake ũrĩa ũtarĩ na Mũrũ wa Ngai ndarĩ na muoyo.
He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
13 Ndĩramwandĩkĩra maũndũ maya inyuĩ arĩa mwĩtĩkĩtie rĩĩtwa rĩa Mũrũ wa Ngai, nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ mũrĩ na muoyo wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
I wrote these things to you, those who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Ũũmĩrĩru ũrĩa tũkoragwo naguo tũgĩkuhĩrĩria Ngai nĩ atĩ tũngĩhooya ũndũ o wothe kũringana na wendo wake-rĩ, we nĩatũiguaga.
And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
15 Na tũngĩmenya atĩ nĩatũiguaga, ũndũ-inĩ o wothe ũrĩa tũhooyaga-rĩ, nĩtũũĩ atĩ nĩatũheete ũndũ ũrĩa tũmũhooete.
And if we know that he hears us, whatever we may ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked from him.
16 Mũndũ o wothe angĩona mũrũ kana mwarĩ wa ithe agĩĩka rĩĩhia rĩrĩa rĩtangĩmũtwara gĩkuũ-inĩ, nĩahoe, nake Ngai nĩakamũhe muoyo. Ndĩraaria ũhoro wa andũ arĩa rĩĩhia rĩao rĩtarĩ rĩa kũmatwara gĩkuũ-inĩ. No nĩ kũrĩ rĩĩhia rĩngĩtwara mũndũ gĩkuũ-inĩ. Niĩ ndiroiga atĩ mũndũ ahooe nĩ ũndũ wa rĩhia ta rĩu.
If any man may see his brother sinning a sin not toward death, he will ask, and he will give life to him, to those not sinning toward death. There is sin toward death. I do not say that he should make request about that.
17 Ciĩko ciothe njũru nĩ mehia, no nĩ kũrĩ rĩĩhia rĩtangĩtwara mũndũ gĩkuũ-inĩ.
All unrighteousness is sin. And there is sin not toward death.
18 Nĩtũũĩ atĩ mũndũ o wothe ũciarĩtwo nĩ Ngai ndatũũraga ehagia; mũndũ ũrĩa ũciarĩtwo nĩ Ngai, ũcio nĩamenyagĩrĩrwo nĩ Ngai, nake ũrĩa mũũru ndangĩhota kũmwĩka ũũru.
We know that every man who has been begotten from God does not sin, but he who was begotten from God keeps himself, and the evil does not touch him.
19 Ithuĩ nĩtũũĩ atĩ tũrĩ ciana cia Ngai, na tũkamenya atĩ thĩ yothe yathagwo na wathani wa ũrĩa mũũru.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world is set in the evil.
20 Ningĩ nĩtũũĩ atĩ Mũrũ wa Ngai nĩokĩte na nĩatũheete ũtaũku, nĩgeetha tũmũmenye ũrĩa arĩ we ũhoro wa ma. Na ithuĩ tũrĩ thĩinĩ wake ũcio ũrĩa arĩ we ũhoro wa ma, tũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Mũrũwe Jesũ Kristũ. We nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa wa ma, na nowe muoyo wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God comes, and has given us understanding, so that we may know the true. And we are in the true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Twana twakwa nyendete, mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei ngai cia mĩhianano.
Little children, guard yourselves from the idols. Truly.
