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, of God, hath been born: and, whosoever loveth him that begat, loveth him that hath been 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.
Hereby, perceive we, that we love the children of God, as soon as, God, we love, and, his commandments, we are doing.
3 Nke a bụ ịhụnanya Chineke, na anyị ga-edebe iwu ya. Iwu ya adịghịkwa arọ.
For, this is the love of God—that, his commandments, we be keeping, and, his commandments, are not burdensome;
4 Nʼihi na onye ọbụla amụrụ site na Chineke na-emeri ụwa. Nke a bụkwa mmeri ahụ na-emeri ụwa, ọ bụladị okwukwe anyị.
Because, whatsoever hath been born of God, overcometh the world; and, this, is the victory that hath overcome the world—our faith.
5 Onye pụrụ imeri ụwa, ma ọ bụghị naanị onye ahụ kweere na Jisọs bụ Ọkpara Chineke?
[And] who is he that overcometh the world, save 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 through means of water and blood, Jesus Christ: not, by the water, only, but, by the water and by the blood, —and, the Spirit, it is, that is bearing witness, because, the Spirit, is the truth.
7 Nʼihi na ha dị atọ gbara akaebe:
Because, three, are they who are bearing witness—
8 Mmụọ Nsọ, na mmiri na ọbara, ha atọ kwekọrịtara.
The Spirit, and the Water, and the Blood; and, the three, are, [witnesses], unto one thing.
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, the witness of men, we receive, the witness of God, is, greater. Because, this, is the witness of God—in that he hath borne witness concerning 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, within himself: He that doth not believe God, false, hath made him, —because he hath not believed on the witness which, God, hath witnessed, concerning 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 witness: —that, life age-abiding, hath God given unto us, 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, the life, —he that hath not the Son of God, hath not, the 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—in order that ye may know that ye have, Life Age-abiding—unto you who 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 boldness which we have towards him: that, if, anything, we ask, according to his will, He doth hearken unto 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 doth hearken unto us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the things asked, which we have asked 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 one should see his brother committing a sin, not unto death, he shall ask, and He will grant unto him life, —for them who are sinning, not unto death. There, is, a sin, unto death: not concerning that, am I saying, that he should make request.
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 hath been born of God, is not committing sin, —Nay, he that hath been born of God, He keepeth him, and, the wicked one, doth not touch him.
19 Anyị maara na anyị bụ ụmụ Chineke, ụwa niile nọkwa nʼokpuru ike ajọ onye ahụ.
We know that, of God, are we; and, the whole world, in the wicked one, is lying.
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)
We know, moreover, that, the Son of God, hath come, and hath given us insight, so that we are getting to understand, him that is Real, —and we are in him that is Real, in his Son Jesus Christ. This, is the Real God, and life age-abiding. (aiōnios g166)
21 Ụmụ m, wezuganụ onwe unu site nʼarụsị niile.
Dear children! Guard yourselves from idols.
