1 Yohanna 3
1 Dubi irin ƙaunar da Uba ya ƙaunace mu da ita mana, har ana ce da mu’ya’yan Allah! Haka kuwa muke! Dalilin da ya sa duniya ba tă san mu ba shi ne, don ba tă san shi ba.
Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of YHWH! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
2 Abokaina ƙaunatattu, yanzu, mu’ya’yan Allah ne, kuma abin da za mu zama nan gaba ba a riga an bayyana ba. Sai dai mun san cewa sa’ad da Kiristi ya bayyana, za mu zama kamar sa, domin za mu gan shi kamar yadda yake.
Beloved, now we are children of YHWH; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.
3 Duk mai wannan bege a cikinsa yakan tsarkake kansa, kamar yadda shi Kiristi yake da tsabta.
And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
4 Duk mai yin zunubi yana karya doka ne; tabbatacce, zunubi, karya doka ne.
Whoever commits sin transgresses also the law, for sin is the transgression of the law.
5 Sai dai kun san cewa Kiristi ya bayyana ne domin yă ɗauke zunubanmu. A cikinsa kuwa babu zunubi.
And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.
6 Ba mai rayuwa a cikinsa da yake cin gaba da yin zunubi. Kowa da yake aikata zunubi, bai taɓa ganinsa ba, bai ma san shi ba.
Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.
7 ’Ya’yana ƙaunatattu, kada ku yarda wani yă ruɗe ku. Duk mai yin abin da yake daidai mai adalci ne, yadda Kiristi yake mai adalci.
Little children, let no one deceive you. He who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
8 Duk mai aikata abin da yake zunubi shi na Iblis ne, domin Iblis mai aikata zunubi ne tun farko. Dalilin da ya sa Ɗan Allah ya bayyana kuwa shi ne don yă rushe aikin Iblis.
He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of YHWH was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Babu haifaffe na Allah da zai ci gaba da yin zunubi, domin iri na Allah yana a cikinsa; ba zai iya ci gaba da yin zunubi ba, domin haifaffe ne na Allah.
Whoever has been born of YHWH does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of YHWH.
10 Ta haka muka san waɗanda suke’ya’yan Allah da kuma waɗanda suke’ya’yan Iblis. Duk wanda ba ya yin abin da yake daidai, ba ɗan Allah ba ne; haka ma wanda ba ya ƙaunar ɗan’uwansa.
In this the children of YHWH and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of YHWH, nor is he who does not love his brother.
11 Wannan shi ne saƙon da kuka ji tun farko. Ya kamata mu ƙaunaci juna.
For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,
12 Kada ku zama kamar Kayinu, wanda ya zama na mugun nan, ya kuma kashe ɗan’uwansa. Me ya sa ya kashe shi? Domin ayyukansa mugaye ne, na ɗan’uwansa kuma na adalci ne.
not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother's righteous.
13 Kada ku yi mamaki’yan’uwana, in duniya ta ƙi ku.
Do not marvel, my brethren, if the world hates you.
14 Mun san cewa mun riga mun ratsa daga mutuwa zuwa rai, domin muna ƙaunar’yan’uwanmu. Duk wanda ba ya ƙauna matacce ne har yanzu.
We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.
15 Duk mai ƙin ɗan’uwansa mai kisankai ne, kun kuma san cewa ba mai kisankan da yake da rai madawwami a cikinsa. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
16 Yadda muka san ƙauna ke nan, wato, Yesu Kiristi ya ba da ransa dominmu. Ya kamata mu ma mu ba da rayukanmu domin’yan’uwanmu.
By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 In wani yana da arziki, ya kuma ga ɗan’uwansa cikin rashi, bai kuwa taimake shi ba, anya, ƙaunar Allah tana a cikinsa kuwa?
But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of YHWH abide in him?
18 ’Ya’yana ƙaunatattu, kada mu yi ƙauna da fatar baki kawai, sai dai mu nuna ta ta wurin aikatawa da kuma gaskiya.
My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
19 Ta haka muka san cewa mu na gaskiya ne, kuma za mu iya tsaya a gaban Allah ba tare da rawar jiki ba.
And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him.
20 Idan zuciyarmu ta nuna mana muna da laifi, mun san cewa Allah ya fi zuciyarmu, ya kuma san dukan kome.
For if our heart condemns us, YHWH is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Abokaina ƙaunatattu, in zukatanmu ba su ba mu laifi ba, muna da ƙarfin halin tsayawa a gaban Allah ke nan.
Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward YHWH.
22 Muna kuma samun dukan abin da muka roƙa daga gare shi, domin muna biyayya da umarnansa, muna kuma yin abin da ya gamshe shi.
And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
23 Umarninsa kuwa shi ne, mu gaskata da sunan Ɗansa, Yesu Kiristi, mu kuma ƙaunaci juna kamar yadda ya umarce mu.
And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Yahushua the Messiah and love one another, as He gave us commandment.
24 Waɗanda suke biyayya da umarnansa kuwa suna rayuwa a cikinsa, shi kuma a cikinsu. Ta haka muka san cewa yana raye a cikinmu. Mun san haka ta wurin Ruhun da ya ba mu.
Now he who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.
