< 1 Juan 1 >
1 Ti adda manipud idi punganay, a nangeganmi, a mismo a nakitami, a minatmatanmi, ken iniggaman dagiti imami - mainaig iti Sao ti biag.
It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.
2 Ken ti biag ket naipakaammo, ken nakitami, ken sinaksianmi, ken ipakaammomi kadakayo ti biag nga agnanayon, nga adda iti Ama, ken naipakaammo kadatayo. (aiōnios )
And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios )
3 Ti nakitami ken nangngeganmi ket ipakaammomi met kadakayo, tapno maaddaankayo met iti pannakikadua kadakami. Ken ti pannagkakaduatayo ket adda iti Ama ken iti Anakna, ni Jesu-Cristo.
It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Ket isursuratmi dagitoy a banbanag kadakayo, tapno mabalin nga agbalin koma a naan-anay ti rag-otayo.
And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 Daytoy ti mensahe a nangeganmi manipud kenkuana ken ibagami kadakayo: Ti Dios ket lawag ket pulos nga awan kinasipnget kenkuana.
This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.
6 No ibagatayo nga addaantayo iti pannakikadua kenkuana ket magmagnatayo met iti kasipngetan, agul-ulbodtayo ken saantayo nga ar-aramiden ti kinapudno.
If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.
7 Ngem no magmagnatayo iti lawag gapu ti isuna ket adda iti lawag, addaantayo iti pannakikadua iti tunggal maysa, ken ti dara ni Jesus nga Anakna ket dalusannatayo manipud iti amin a basol.
But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.
8 No ibagatayo nga awan basoltayo, al-allilawentayo dagiti bagitayo, ken ti kinapudno ket awan kadatayo.
If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
9 Ngem no ipudnotayo dagiti basoltayo, isuna ket mapagtalkan ken nalinteg a mamakawan kadatayo kadagiti basoltayo ken dalusannatayo manipud iti amin a kinakillo.
But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.
10 No ibagatayo a saantayo a nakabasol, pagbalbalinentayo isuna nga ulbod, ken ti saona ket awan kadatayo.
If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.
