1 Jan 1
1 Sa ki te ye depi kòmansman an, sa ke nou te tande, sa ke nou te wè avèk zye nou yo, sa ke nou te byen konnen, epi te manyen avèk men nou yo, konsènan Pawòl Lavi a;
WE announce to you that which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, and seen with our eyes, have seen, and touched with our hands, that which is the Word of life.
2 epi lavi te vin parèt pou l vizib e nou te wè l, epi tande l, epi pwoklame a nou menm lavi etènèl la, ki te avèk Papa a, epi te fè parèt byen klè a nou. (aiōnios g166)
And the life was manifested, and we have seen, and testify, and preach to you the eternal life which was with the Father, and was manifested to us. (aiōnios g166)
3 Sa ke nou te wè epi tande, nou pwoklame a nou menm osi ke nou kapab genyen kominyon avèk nou. Konsa vrèman, kominyon nou se avèk Papa a, epi avèk Fis Li, Jésus Kri.
And what we have seen and heard, we make known also to you, that you may have communion with us; and our communion is with the Father, and with his Son Jeshu the Meshiha.
4 Epi bagay sa yo nou ekri, pou lajwa nou kapab vin konplèt.
And these write we unto you, that our joy which is in you may be complete.
5 Men mesaj la ke nou te tande a Li, epi te anonse a nou menm, ke Bondye se limyè, epi nan Li nanpwen tenèb ditou.
And this is the annunciation which we have heard from him, and announce to you, that Aloha is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 Si nou di ke nou gen kominyon avè Li, men nou mache nan tenèb la, nou manti epi pa pratike laverite a.
And if we say that we have communion with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and in the truth do not proceed;
7 Men si nou mache nan limyè a, menm jan ke Li menm se nan limyè a, nou gen kominyon youn avèk lòt, epi san a Jésus, Fis Li, netwaye nou de tout peche.
but if in the light we walk, as He is in the light, we have communion with one another, and the blood of Jeshu his Son cleanseth us from all our sins.
8 Si nou di ke nou pa gen peche, n ap pase pwòp tèt nou nan desepsyon, epi laverite a pa nan nou.
And if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us;
9 Si nou konfese peche nou yo, Li se fidèl epi jis pou padonnen nou peche nou yo, epi pou netwaye nou de tout mal.
but if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Epi si nou di ke nou pa peche, nou fè Li menm yon mantè, epi pawòl Li pa nan nou.
And if we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
