Jan Tikpiali 4

1 n buakaaba, yin da dugi mani yaaba kuli n tua ke bi pia Utienu Fuoma po, ama yin biigi la ki bandi bi yaa tie Utienu yaaba. kelima bisawali pua - fadanba boncianla cua li ŋandilinni.

Beloved, not every spirit do believe but do test the spirits whether of God they are, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

2 line ba teni yin bandi yua n pia Utienu Fuoma, yua n tuo ke Jesu kilisiti cua ki tie nisaalo kuli pia Utienu Fuoma.

By this (you know *NK(O)*) the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses Jesus Christ in [the] flesh having come of God is.

3 yua n nia kaa tuo Jesu kuli, waa pia Utienu fuoma, ama o pia kilisiti - yeka yama po. nani yin den gbadi ke yua baa cua yeni, baa moala o ye ŋanduna nni.

and any spirit that not confesses Jesus (Christ in flesh having come *K*) from God not is; And this is that of the antichrist which you have heard that is coming and now in the world is already.

4 yinba a biwaala, yi tie Utienu yaabe! yi paadi ba, kelima yua ye yi ninni, paalu cie yua n ye ŋandunanni.

you yourselves from God are, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is the [One] in you than the [one] in the world.

5 ban woni, tie ŋanduna yaabe, lani teni ke bi maama tie ŋanduna yaama, ke ŋanduna yaaba mo cengi ba.

They themselves of the world are; because of this from out of the world they speak and the world to them listens.

6 tinba wani tie Utienu yaabe, yua n bani Utienu kuli cengi ti maama - yua kaa tie Utienu yua mo kan cengi ti maama: lani n teni ke ti bani imoamoani fuoma leni mi tuofaama gagidima.

We ourselves of God are; The [one] knowing God listens to us; He who not is from God not listens to us. By this we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.

7 n buakaaba, tin ya bua mani ti yaba, kelima mi buama ña Utienu kane, yua n pia mi buama mo kuli, Utienu n mali o, ke o bani Utienu mo.

Beloved, we may love one another, because love from God is and everyone who is loving from God has been born and knows God;

8 yua kaa pia buama kuli, naa bani Utienu, kelima Utienu tie buama.

The [one] not loving not has known God, because God love is.

9 Utienu den doagidi ti po o buama, kelima o den soani o bonjayenyenga ŋanduna nni ke tin yaa pia li miali o ninni.

In this has been revealed the love of God among us, that the Son of Him the one and only has sent God into the world so that we may live through Him.

10 mi buama naa tie ke tinba ka bua Utienu, ama ke wani n bua ti, ki soani o Bijua ke o tua i candanbaani padili ti ya tuonbiadi po.

In this is love, not that we ourselves (have loved *N(k)O*) God, but that He himself loved us and He sent the Son of Him [as] a propitiation for the sins of us.

11 n buakaala, Utienu ya bua ti yeni, li pundi ti moko n bua ti yaba.

Beloved, if so God loved us, also we ourselves ought one another to love;

12 o ba kuli daa la Utienu, ama ti ya bua tiyaba, Utienu ye ti niinni, ke o buama mo dagidi ti niini cain.

God no [one] at any time has seen; if we shall love one another, God in us abides and the love of Him in us perfected is.

13 ti bani ke ti ye o niinni, ke o mo ye ti niinni, kelima o puni ti o fuoma.

By this we know that in Him we abide and He in us, because from out the Spirit of Him He has given to us.

14 tinba wani la, ki tieni siedi, ke baa soani o Bijua ke o tie ŋanduna candaano.

And we ourselves have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son [as] Savior of the world.

15 yua n tuo ke Jesu tie Utienu Bijua kuli, Utienu ye o niinni, o moko ye Utienu ya niinni.

Who[ever] (maybe *N(k)O*) shall confess that Jesus (Christ *O*) is the Son of God, God in him abides and he in God.

16 tinba wani bandi Utienu n pia ya buama ti po, ti dugi mi po mo. Utienu tie buama, yua nye li buama nni kuli, ye Utienu nni, ke Utienu moko ye o niinni.

And we ourselves have come to know and we have come to believe the love that has God as to us. God love is, and the [one] abiding in love in God abides, and God in him (abides. *NO*)

17 wan tie maama, ti moko tie yene ŋanduna nni, yene ke mi buama ŋani cain ti niinni, ke tin ya ti pia lipapaali li bujiali daali.

In this has been perfected love with us, so that confidence we may have in the day of judgment, that even as He is also we ourselves are in world this.

18 jawaandi naa ye buama nni, ama ya buama n ŋani cain deli ki ñandi ti jawaandi kelima ti jawaandi n pia yua jie u cuonu yo. ti jawaandi n pia yua daa pia mi buama ke mi dagidi o niinni.

Fear no there is in love, but perfect love out casts fear, because the fear punishment has; the [one] now fearing not has been perfected in love.

19 tinba wani, ti bua o kelima wani n den kpa bua ti.

We ourselves love (him *K*) because He himself first loved us.

20 yua n tua: ke o bua Utienu, ki nan nani o kpiilo, tie tuofadaano, kelima yua n ki bua wan n nua o kpiilo yua, baa ga lede ki bua Utienu, yua ke o nua?

If anyone shall say that I love God and the brother of him may hate, a liar he is; The [one] for not loving the brother of him whom he has seen, God whom not he has seen (not *N(K)O*) is he able to love;

21 ti baa o kani ya balimaama n tie na: li pundi ke yua n bua Utienu, n bua o kpiilo moko.

And this the commandment we have from Him, that the [one] loving God may love also the brother of him.
