1 Yoane 5
1 Moto nyonso oyo andimaka ete Yesu azali Klisto azali mwana na Nzambe, mpe moto nyonso oyo alingaka Tata alingaka mpe Mwana na Ye.
Whoever believes that Yeshua is the Meshikha is born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
2 Tala ndenge nini toyebaka ete tolingaka bana na Nzambe: ezali na nzela ya kolinga Nzambe mpe ya kotosa mibeko na Ye.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and do his commandments.
3 Pamba te kolinga Nzambe ezali: kotosa mibeko na Ye. Mpe mibeko na Ye ezali pasi te,
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
4 pamba te mwana nyonso ya Nzambe alongaka mokili, mpe elonga oyo elongaki mokili ezali: kondima na biso.
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.
5 Nani oyo alongaka mokili? Ezali kaka moto oyo andimaka ete Yesu azali Mwana na Nzambe.
Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Yeshua is the Son of God?
6 Yesu-Klisto azali Ye oyo ayaki na nzela ya mayi mpe makila; ayaki na nzela ya mayi kaka te, kasi na nzela ya mayi mpe makila. Mpe ezali Molimo nde atatoli bongo, pamba te Molimo azali solo.
This is he who came by water and blood, Yeshua Meshikha; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Rukha who testifies, because the Rukha is the truth.
7 Nzokande, batatoli bazali misato:
For there are three who testify:
8 Molimo, mayi mpe makila; mpe bango misato balobaka ndenge moko.
the Rukha, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.
9 Tondimaka matatoli ya bato, kasi litatoli ya Nzambe eleki motuya, pamba te yango nde Nzambe apesa na tina na Mwana na Ye.
If we accept human testimony, the witness of God is greater; for this is God's testimony that he has testified concerning his Son.
10 Moto oyo andimelaka Mwana na Nzambe azali na litatoli yango kati na motema na ye; moto oyo andimelaka Nzambe te akomisi Nzambe mokosi, pamba te andimaka te litatoli oyo Nzambe apesa na tina na Mwana na Ye.
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
11 Mpe litatoli yango ezali: Nzambe apesa biso bomoi ya seko, mpe bomoi yango ezali kati na Mwana na Ye. (aiōnios g166)
The testimony is this, that God gave to us everlasting life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Moto oyo azali na Mwana azali na bomoi, kasi moto oyo azangi Mwana na Nzambe azangi mpe bomoi.
He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have God's Son does not have the life.
13 Bino oyo bondimelaka Kombo ya Mwana na Nzambe, nakomeli bino makambo oyo mpo boyeba ete bozali na bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
14 Mpe tala elikya oyo tozali na yango liboso ya Nzambe: soki tosengi eloko kolanda mokano na Ye, ayoki biso.
This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
15 Mpe soki toyebi ete ayoki biso, toyebi lisusu ete tozali na eloko oyo tosengi epai na Ye.
And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
16 Soki omoni ndeko na yo kosala lisumu oyo ememaka na kufa te, osengeli kobondela mpo na ye, mpe Nzambe akopesa ye bomoi. Nazali koloba nde na tina na bato oyo basalaka lisumu oyo ememaka na kufa te. Kasi ezali na lisumu oyo ememaka na kufa; ezali te na tina na lisumu yango nde nazali kosenga na bino kobondela.
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death. I do not say that he should make a request concerning this.
17 Solo, lisumu ezali: kobuka mobeko; kasi ezali na lisumu oyo ememaka na kufa te.
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.
18 Toyebi ete moto nyonso oyo abotami na bomoi ya bonzambe akobaka te kosala lisumu; Ye moko Mwana na Nzambe abatelaka ye, mpe Satana akoki kosala ye mabe te.
We know that whoever is born of God does not sin, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
19 Toyebi ete tozali bana na Nzambe, mpe ete mokili mobimba ezali na se ya bokonzi ya Satana.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
20 Toyebi lisusu ete Mwana na Nzambe asila koya mpe apesa biso bososoli mpo ete tokoka koyeba Ye oyo azali solo. Mpe tozali kati na Ye oyo azali solo, na nzela ya kozala kati na Yesu-Klisto, Mwana na Ye. Mwana azali Ye moko Nzambe ya solo mpe bomoi ya seko. (aiōnios g166)
We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Yeshua Meshikha. He is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Bana na ngai, bomibatelaka mosika na banzambe ya bikeko.
Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
