Sie John 3
1 Liye lupan lungse lun Papa nu sesr! Lungse lal uh arulana yohk, pwanang El pangon kut tulik natul — ac ma se inge ma na pwaye. Ke sripa se inge faclu tia etekut, mweyen faclu tia pac etu God.
Consider how great a love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of God! The world does not acknowledge us for this reason: it did not acknowledge Him.
2 Mwet kawuk saok luk, inge kut tulik nutin God, tusruktu soenna kalem lah kut ac mwet fuka tok. A kut etu lah ke Christ el ac sikme, kut ac fah oana el, mweyen kut ac fah liyal ke lumahl na pwaye.
Dear ones, right now we are children of God and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is
3 Mwet nukewa ma oasr finsrak la ouinge in Christ, ac fah sifacna karinganang moul lalos in nasnas, oana ke Christ el nasnas.
—everyone who has this hope upon him purifies himself, even as He is pure.
4 Kutena mwet su orekma koluk, oasr mwatal ke kunausla ma sap lun God, mweyen ma koluk uh lain ma sap.
Everyone who commits sin commits lawlessness as well; yes, sin is lawlessness.
5 Kowos etu lah Christ el tuku in usla ma koluk lun mwet uh, ac wangin ma koluk in el.
And you know that He was revealed in order to remove our sins—in Him there is no sin.
6 Ouinge kutena mwet su kupasryang nu yurin Christ el ac fah tia tafwelana in oru ma koluk; a kutena mwet su nuna oru na ma koluk el soenna liyal ku etal.
Whoever is abiding in Him does not sin; indeed, whoever is sinning has neither seen Him nor known Him.
7 Tulik nutik, kowos in tia lela tuh kutena mwet in kiapekowosla! Kutena mwet su oru ma suwohs, el suwoswos, oana ke Christ el suwoswos.
Dear children, let no one mislead you; he who keeps doing righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
8 Kutena mwet su srakna oru ma koluk, el ma lun Devil, mweyen Devil el nuna oru ma koluk oe ke mutawauk me. Wen nutin God el tuku ke na sripa se inge, tuh elan kunausla ma Devil el orala uh.
He who keeps doing sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was manifested for this purpose: to undo the devil's works.
9 Kutena mwet su tulik nutin God, el tila oru ma koluk, mweyen ouiya lun God oasr in el. Na ke sripen God El Papa tumal, el tia ku in srakna orekma koluk.
Whoever has been begotten by God does not commit sin, because His seed remains in him; actually, he is not able to sin, because he has been begotten by God.
10 Arulana kalem ekla inmasrlon tulik nutin God ac tulik nutin Devil. Kutena mwet su tia oru ma suwohs ku tia lungse mwet wial, el tia tulik nutin God.
In this the children of God and the children of the devil are distinguished: whoever is not doing righteousness is not of God, also whoever is not loving his brother.
11 Pa inge mwe luti su kowos lohng ke mutawauk me: kut enenu in lungse sie sin sie.
Because this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another
12 Kut in tia oana Cain — el tuh ma lun el su Koluklana, ac el sifacna akmuselya Abel, ma lel. Efu ku Cain el unilya Abel— Mweyen orekma lal Cain sifacna koluk, ac ma tamulel se lal ah oru uh suwohs.
—not like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own works were evil, while those of his brother were righteous.
13 Ouinge, mwet lulalfongi wiuk, kowos in tia lut mwet faclu fin srungakowos.
My brothers, do not be surprised if the world hates you.
14 Kut etu lah kut som liki misa tari ac utyak nu in moul, mweyen kut lungse mwet wiasr in lulalfongi. Kutena mwet su wangin lungse yoro, el srakna muta ye ku lun misa.
We know that we have transferred out of the death into the life because we love our brothers; he who does not love his brother remains in the death.
15 Kutena mwet su srunga mwet wial, el sie mwet akmas, ac kowos etu lah moul ma pahtpat wangin yorolos su akmas. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding within himself. (aiōnios g166)
16 Ma se oru kut in etu lah mea se lungse uh pa inge: Christ el sifacna asang moul lal kacsr, ke ma inge fal kut in asang pac moul lasr ke mwet wiasr uh!
We know the Love by this: He laid down His life in our behalf; we also are obligated to lay down our lives in behalf of our brothers.
17 Fin oasr sunun mwe kasrup lun faclu yurin sie mwet, ac el liye lah oasr enenu lun sie mwet lulalfongi wial, a el kaliya insial nu sel, na kalem lah lungse lun God tia oasr in el!
Now whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart toward him—how does the love of God abide in him?
18 Tulik nutik, lungse lasr uh in tia mwe na kaskas ku sramsram; enenu in lungse na pwaye su kalem ke orekma lasr.
My dear children, let us not love in word or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth
19 Fin ouinge, kut ac etu lah kut ma lun ma su pwaye, ac pa inge ma ac akpulaikye insiasr ke kut ac fah tu ye mutun God.
—yes, by this we know that we are of the Truth and may put our hearts at ease in His presence,
20 Ma kut pulakin ke insiasr na pwaye uh fin akkolukye kut, kut etu lah God El fulat liki nunak lun insiasr, ac El etu ma nukewa.
and that, if our heart should condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all.
21 Ouinge, mwet kawuk saok luk, ma kut pulakin insiasr uh fin tia akkolukye kut, ac oasr pulaik lasr ye mutun God.
Dear ones, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God,
22 Kutena ma kut siyuk sin God kac El ase nu sesr, mweyen kut akos ma El sapkin, ac oru ma El insewowo kac.
and whatever we may ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.
23 Ma El sapkin uh pa kut in lulalfongi Jesus Christ, Wen natul, ac lungse sie sin sie, oana ke Christ el sapkin nu sesr.
Now this is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded.
24 Kutena mwet su akos ma God El sapkin uh fah kupasryang nu sin God, ac God El fah muta yorol. Ac kut etu lah God El muta in kut ke sripen Ngun su El ase nu sesr.
He who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. This is how we know that He remains in us: by the Spirit whom He gave us.
