1 Jọn 5
1 Onye ọbụla kweere na Jisọs bụ Kraịst bụ onye amụrụ site na Chineke. Onye ọbụla nke hụkwara Nna nʼanya na-ahụkwa Ọkpara ya nʼanya.
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
2 Ọ bụ otu a ka anyị si amata na anyị hụrụ ụmụ Chineke nʼanya, mgbe anyị na-ahụ Chineke nʼanya, na-erubekwa isi nʼiwu ya niile.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 Nke a bụ ịhụnanya Chineke, na anyị ga-edebe iwu ya. Iwu ya adịghịkwa arọ.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 Nʼihi na onye ọbụla amụrụ site na Chineke na-emeri ụwa. Nke a bụkwa mmeri ahụ na-emeri ụwa, ọ bụladị okwukwe anyị.
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
5 Onye pụrụ imeri ụwa, ma ọ bụghị naanị onye ahụ kweere na Jisọs bụ Ọkpara Chineke?
Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Ọ bụ onye ahụ bịara site na mmiri na ọbara, ya bụ Jisọs Kraịst. O siteghị naanị na mmiri bịa, kama o sitere na mmiri na ọbara. Ọ bụkwa Mmụọ Nsọ na-agba ama maka ya, nʼihi na Mmụọ Nsọ bụ eziokwu.
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 Nʼihi na ha dị atọ gbara akaebe:
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 Mmụọ Nsọ, na mmiri na ọbara, ha atọ kwekọrịtara.
And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 Ọ bụrụ na anyị nabata akaebe nke mmadụ gbara, akaebe nke Chineke gbara dị ukwuu karịa, nʼihi na ọ bụ akaebe Chineke gbara banyere Ọkpara ya.
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 Onye ọbụla kweere nʼỌkpara Chineke nwere ọgbụgba ama a nʼobi ya. Ma onye ọbụla na-ekwereghị na Chineke emeela ya ka ọ bụrụ onye ụgha, nʼihi na o kwereghị nʼama ahụ Chineke gbara banyere Ọkpara ya.
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 Ama ahụ bụkwa nke a, na Chineke enyela anyị ndụ ebighị ebi, ndụ a dịkwa nʼime Ọkpara ya. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Onye ọbụla nwere Ọkpara ahụ nwere ndụ ma onye ọbụla na-enweghị Ọkpara Chineke enweghị ndụ.
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
13 Ana m edere unu ihe ndị a unu ndị kweere nʼaha Ọkpara Chineke, ime ka unu mata na unu nwere ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Nkwuwa okwu anyị nwere na ya bụ, na ọ bụrụ na anyị arịọ ihe ọbụla dịka ọchịchọ obi ya siri dị, ọ na-anụ olu anyị.
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
15 Ọ bụrụkwanụ na anyị matara na ọ na-anụ olu anyị mgbe ọbụla anyị rịọrọ ya ihe, anyị na-amatakwa na anyị anatala ihe ọbụla anyị rịọrọ ya.
And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
16 Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla ahụ ka nwanna ya na-eme mmehie nke na-adịghị eduba nʼọnwụ, ya kpee ekpere, Chineke ga-enyekwa onye ahụ ndụ. Nke a bụ maka ndị ahụ mmehie ha na-abụghị nke na-eduba nʼọnwụ. E nwere mmehie na-eduba nʼọnwụ. Asịghị m unu kpee ekpere maka nke ahụ.
If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
17 Ajọ omume niile bụ mmehie, ma ọ dị mmehie nke na-adịghị eduba nʼọnwụ.
All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death.
18 Anyị matara na onye ọbụla amụrụ site na Chineke anaghị aga nʼihu na-eme mmehie, kama onye ahụ nke amụrụ site na Chineke na-echekwa ha, ajọ onye ahụ adịghị emetụkwa ha aka.
We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
19 Anyị maara na anyị bụ ụmụ Chineke, ụwa niile nọkwa nʼokpuru ike ajọ onye ahụ.
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20 Anyị matakwara na Ọkpara Chineke abịala, nyekwa anyị nghọta ka anyị mara ya, onye bụ eziokwu. Anyị nọ nʼime onye ahụ bụ eziokwu, ọ bụladị nʼime Ọkpara ya, bụ Jisọs Kraịst. Ya onwe ya bụ ezi Chineke bụrụkwa ndụ ebighị ebi. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Ụmụ m, wezuganụ onwe unu site nʼarụsị niile.
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
