1 Yohana 4
1 Alowa, leki ku huiili kila nkolo, kuiti igemi inkolo mihenge anga ize ipembenkanilye ni Itunda, ku nsoko anya kidagu idu nia uteele apembeeye mu ingu.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 Ku ili muku mulinga uNg'wau Ng'welu nuang'wa Itunda - kila Nkolo ni ikalapa kina uYesu Kristo uzile mu muili ingi ang'wa Itunda,
By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus (the) Messiah has come in the flesh is of God,
3 hangi kila nkolo ni shanga ilapaa kung'wa Yesu shanga ang'wa Itunda. Iyi ingi nkolo a mukingila Kristo, naiiza mumigulye kina ipembilye, ni itungili yakondaa kutula ikoli mi ihi.
and every spirit who does not confess Jesus is not of God; and this is that of the antimessiah, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already.
4 Unyenye ingi miang'wa Itunda, ana alowa, hangi makondyaa kuakilya kunsoko ung'wenso nukoli mukati anyu ingi mukulu kukila ung'wenso nukoli mu unkumbigulu.
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.
5 Ni anso ingi a unkumbigulu, ku lulo niakukiligitya ingi ka unkumbigulu, nu unkumbigulu wiategeelya.
They are of the world. Therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.
6 Usese ingi kiang'wa Itunda, uNg'wenso numulingile Itunda wikutegeelya usese, uNg'wenso ni shanga wang'wa Itunda shanga wikutegeelya. Mu ili kilingaa i nkolo a tai ni nkolo a uteele.
We are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Alowa, kilowe sese ku sese, ku iti u ulowa ingi wang'wa Itunda, ni kila ung'wi nuilowaa utugilwe ni Itunda nu kumulinga Itunda.
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.
8 uNg'wenso nishanga wilowaa shanga umulingile Itunda, kunsoko Itunda ingi Ulowa.
He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
9 Mu ili ulowa nuang'wa Itundaai ukunukuwe mukati itu, kina Itunda ai umulagiite ung'wana nuakwe nuing'wene mu unkumbigulu iti kikie kukiila Ng'wenso.
By this God's love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.
10 Mu ulowa uwu, shanga kina ai kumuloilwe Itunda, kuiti ng'wenso ai ukuloilwe, nu kumulagiilya u ng'wana nuakwe watule usukiilya nua milandu itu.
In this is love, not that we have loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
11 Alowa, anga ize Itunda ai ukuloilwe usese, ku u kutakiwe kilowa sese ku sese.
Beloved, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.
12 Kutili ga nung'wi nai umihengile Itunda, Anga kilowe sese ku sese, Itunda wikiie mukati itu nu ulowa nuakwe wikondaniiligwa mukati itu.
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.
13 Mu ili kulingile kina kikiie mukati akwe nu ng'wenso mukati itu, kunsoko ukinkiiye uNg'wau Ng'welu nuakwe.
By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.
14 Hangi kihengaa nu kukuila kina uTata umulagiiye uNg'wana kutula muguni nua unkumbigulu.
We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.
15 Kila nuilapaa kina uYesu ingi ng'wana wang'wa Itunda, Itunda wikiie mukati akwe nu ng'wenso mukati ang'wa Itunda.
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.
16 Hangi kulingile nu ku uhuiila u ulowa nu ukete Itunda mukati itu. Itunda ingi ulowa, nu ng'wenso wikiie mukati a ulowa nu kikiie mukati ang'wa Itunda, nu Itunda wikiie mukati akwe.
We know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.
17 Mu ulowa uwu wakondaniiligwa mu kati itu, iti kutule nu ugimya luhiku nula ulamulwa, kunsoko anga ung'wenso nuili, nu sese uu kili mu unkumbigulu uwu.
In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.
18 Kutili u woa mukati a ulowa. Kuiti u ulowa nu ukondile wiuguma uwoa kunzi, ku nsoko u woa wikigendi nu ulamulwa. Kuiti ung'wenso nuitumbaa shanga ukondaniigwe mu ulowa.
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
19 Kilowa kunsoko Itunda ai ukuloilwe hanza.
We love, because he first loved us.
20 Anga ize ung'wi wikaligitya, “Numuloilwe Itunda” kuiti umubipiwe u muluna nuakwe, ingi muteele. Kunsoko ni shanga umuloilwe u muluna nuakwe, nuimihengaa, shanga ujumile kumulowa Itunda ni shanga wimihenga.
If anyone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.
21 Hangi ili lilo ilagiilyo ni kulikete kupuma kitalakwe: Wihi muimulowa Itunda, utakiwe kumulowa ga nu muluna nuakwe.
This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
