< 1 Yohana 1 >
1 K'hela kyakya j'hele kuh'omela kubhwandelu tukakip'heliki, k'hela ambakyo tukibhuene kwa mihu ghitu k'hela twatukilangili ni mabhoko ghitu ikikamuili kuhusu lilobhi lya bhusima.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked on, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
2 Ni bhola bhusima bhwabhombiki kumanyikana bhwasi na tubhubhuene, ni kubhushuhuelia ni kubhetangasila bhusima bhwa milele, ambabho bhwaj'hele kwa tata na bhwabhombiki kumenyikana kwa j'hotu. (aiōnios )
(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show to you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us; ) (aiōnios )
3 K'hela twatukibhuene ni kup'heleka tukakitangasya kwa j'homu pia, ili kuj'ha mubhwesiahi kujumuika pamonga natu, ni bhushirike bhwatu pamonga ni tata ni mwanabhe Yesu kiristu.
That which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that you also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 Na tukabhaj'handikila masyoagha muenga ili ndabha furaha j'hitu ij'helayi timilifu;
And these things write we to you, that your joy may be full.
5 O'bho ndo bhujumbe au bhwalwaup' heliki kuliomela kwa muene ni kubhatangasila; K'yara ndo nuru ni mugati make kuj'helepi ningise hata kidogo.
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 Kama tujobhili kuj'ha tuj'hele ni bhushirika nu muene na twigenda mu ngisi, twisyobha na twilotalepi kweli.
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 Lakini tukagendaghe mu nuru Kama Kya aj'hele mu nuru, twashirikiana tete kwa tete ni damu j'he Yesu kiristo, mwanabhe, j'hikatutakasya kuh'omela mu sambi sigoha.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleans us from all sin.
8 Kama tujobhili tuj'hedumu ni sambi, twikisyobha twibhene, ni bhukuweli j'hij'hedumu mugati mwitu.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Lakini tukatuahi sambi syitu, muene ndo mwaminifu ni haki kutusamehe sambi syitu ni kututakasya ni bhoko nyofu bhuoha.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Tukajobhai kuj'ha tul'otililepi sambi, twibeta kummbomba muene kuj'ha n'desi, ni lilobhi lyake lij'hedumu mugati mwitu.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
