1 Yohana 5
1 Wona wona unu kekilisha ati Yesu ni Kristo oyo ebhuywe na Nyamuanga. Na wona wona unu kamwenda oyo asokele ku Lata one kabhenda abhana bhaye.
Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten by him.
2 Ku linu echimenya ati echibhenda abhana bha Nyamuanga-ungwa nichimwenda Nyamuanga no kukumisha ebhilagilo bhyaye.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 Kutya nikwo echimwenda Nyamuanga ati echibhoyelo ebhilagilo bhyaye. Ne bhilagilo bhyaye ni bhyangu.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.
4 Kulwo kubha bhuli unu ebhuywe na Nyamuanga kachiiga echalo. Na bhunu nibhwo obhumogi bhwo kuchiiga echalo, elikilisha lyeswe.
For whatever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, [even] our faith.
5 Niga unu achiigile echalo? Ni ulya unu kekilisha ati Yesu ni mwana wa Nyamuanga.
Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Unu niwe ejile kwa maji na isagama-Yesu Kristo. Atejilela kwa maji nawe kwa maji na isagama.
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 testimony, because the Spirit is truth.
7 Kulwo kubha bhaliwo bhasagile bhanu abhabhambalilawo:
For there are three that bear testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.
8 Mwoyo, amaji na insagama. Abhasatu bhanu abhekilishanya. (Komelesha: emisango jinu “Lata, omusango, na Mwoyo Mwelu” Gatakubhonekana mu bhitabho ebhinu ebhya insonga ebhya kala).
And there are three that bear testimony on earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 Alabha echibhulamila obhubhambasi bhwa bhana-munu obhubhambasi bhwa Nyamuanga ni bhukulu kukila obhwo. kulwo kubha obhubhambasi bhwa Nyamuanga ni bhunu-ati anabhwo obhubhambasi bhunu bhuli ayei no mwana waye.
If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God which he hath testified of his Son.
10 Omwene unu kamwikilisha omwana wa Nyamuanga ali no bhubhambasi munda yaye omwene. Na wona wona unu atamwikilisishe Nyamuanga amukolele kubha mulimi, kulwo kubha atabhwikilisishe obhubhambasi bhunu Nyamuanga abhuletele okulubhililana na mwana waye.
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 hath not believed the testimony that God gave of his Son.
11 No obhubhambasi nibhwo bhunu— ati Nyamuanga achiyaye obhuanga bhwa kajanende, no bhuanga bhunu bhuli mu mwana waye. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life: and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Unu ali nage mwana ali no bhuanga. Unu atanage omwana wa Nyamuanga atana bhuanga.
He that hath the Son, hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of God, hath not life.
13 Nibhandikiye jinu koleleki mumenyele ati mulino bhuanga bhwa kajanende— emwe bhanu mwikilisishe lisina lyo Mwana wa Nyamuanga. (aiōnios g166)
These things have I written to 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 Na bhunu nibhwo obhubhasi bhunu chili nabhwo imbele yaye, ati alabha chikasabhwa chinu chona chona chinganiliye no kwenda kwaye, kachungwa.
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
15 Na kalabha echimenya ati kachungwa —chona chona chinu echimusabhwa echimenya ati chili nacho echo echisabhwa.
And if we know that he heareth us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired from him.
16 Kalabha omunu kamukola owabho kakola ebhikolwa bhye chibhibhi chinu chitakusila mu lufu, kumwiile okusabhwa na Nyamuanga kamuyana obhuanga. Enaika ku bhalya bhanu echibhibhi chebhwe ni chilya chinu chitakusila mu kufwa— chiliwo echibhibhi chinu echisila mu lufu— nitakwaika ati kumwiile okusabhwa ingulu ye echibhibhi echo.
If any man shall see his brother sin a sin [which is] not to death, he shall ask, and he will give him life for them that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
17 Obhwikote bhwona ni chibhibhi— mbe nawe chiliwo echibhibhi chinu chitali cha lufu.
All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not to death.
18 Echimenya ati unu ebhuywe na Nyamuanga atakukola chibhibhi. nawe unu ebhuywe na Nyamuanga kabhikwa nage kisi kajanende, no mubhibhi ulya atakutula kubhautasha.
We know that whoever is born of God, sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God, keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
19 Echimenya ati eswe chili bha Nyamuanga na chimenyele ati echalo chona chili emwalo yo bhutunge bhwo mubhibhi ulya.
[And] we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
20 Mbe nawe echimenya ati omwana wa Nyamuanga ejile no kuchiyana obhumenyi, ati echimumenya mwenene unu ali chimali na ati chilimo mu mwene unu ali chimali, nolwo mu mwana waye Yesu Kristo. Ni Nyamuanga we chimali no bhuanga bhwa kajanende. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God hath 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 Abhana abhendwa, nimwikenge ebhisusano.
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
