< 1 Joni 1 >
1 Ama Kea ese agafare korapa me'nea ke, nentahita tavunu negeta, konazana tazanu avako nehuta, asimu eri Kegu nehune.
We write to you about the Word of life, which has been in existence from the beginning. We write of what we have heard, of what we have seen with our eyes, of what we watched reverently and touched with our hands.
2 Ana asimu'mo eama higeta tagra negeta, huama huta mevava asimura, Nefa ene me'nea tagrite eama hu'neazanku neramasmune. (aiōnios )
That life was made visible, and we have seen it. We bear our testimony to it, and tell you of that eternal life which was with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios )
3 Keta antahita hu'nonazanku, tagra tamagri enena neramasmunankita, tamagra tagri'ene emeri mago hutma manisageta, tamage huta Nefane, Nemofo Jisas Kraisi'enena tragoteta manigahune.
It is of what we have seen and heard that we now tell you, so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Tagra ama naneke negronankino, ama anazamo musezantia avitesiegu nehune.
We are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 Menina Knare Musenke Agripinti antahi'nona ke neramasmune, Anumzana masa mani'neankino, Agripina hanizana magore huno omanetfa hu'ne.
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.
6 Tagrama huta Agrane vano nehune huta nehuta, hanizampima vano hanunana tagra havige nehuta, tamage kemofona amage nontone.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet continue to walk in the darkness, our words and our lives are a lie.
7 Hu'neanagi tagrama masare'ma vano huta, Agrama masare mani'nea kna'ma nehuta, tagrama trogoteta manisunkeno'a, Anumzamofo Nemofo Jisasi koramo mika kefozantia sese hunerante.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 Tagrama huta kumi osu'none hanuta, tagra'a reravatga hanunkeno, tamage ke'mo'a tagri tagu'afina omanegahie.
If we say, ‘we have no sin,’ then we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Hianagi tagrama kumitima huama hanunkeno'a, Agra tamage huno fatgo hu'neankino, kumitia atreranteno maka fatgo osu avu'avapintira sese hurantegahie.
If we confess our sins, he is just and may be trusted to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all wrongdoing.
10 Tagrama huta kumi osu'none hanuta, Anumzamofona azeri havige ne' kna nehunkeno, ke'amo'a tagu'afina nomane.
If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make God a liar, and his Word is not in us.
