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;
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning 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 revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed 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.
that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Yeshua the Messiah.
4 Epi bagay sa yo nou ekri, pou lajwa nou kapab vin konplèt.
And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
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.
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God 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.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
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 we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yeshua the Messiah his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 Si nou di ke nou pa gen peche, n ap pase pwòp tèt nou nan desepsyon, epi laverite a pa nan nou.
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.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the 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.
If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
