1 Jaona 2
1 Ry keleiakoo, isokirako o raha zao tsy handilara’ areo. Aa naho eo ty mandilatse, le manam-pañalañalañe aman-dRae tika, Iesoà Norizañey, i Vantañey.
My children, I am writing this to you that you may not continue to sin; but if any one sin, we ever have a Comforter before the Father, Jesus Christ the Righteous.
2 Ie ty fañeferañe o hakeon-tikañeo, tsy ty antikañ’ avao fa a ty voatse toy iaby.
And he is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.
3 Zao ty aharendrehañe t’ie mahafohiñe aze, le t’ie mañambeñe o lili’eo.
This is how we may know that we have come to know Him, by always keeping his commandments.
4 Ie manao ty hoe: Fantako re, fe tsy mañambeñe o lili’eo ro remborake, vaho tsy ama’e ty hatò.
He who says, "I know Him," but does no continue obeying his commandments, is a liar,
5 Aa ndra ia ia mañambeñe o tsara’eo, le fonitse ama’e ao ty fikokoañe an’ Andrianañahare. Zao ty ahafohinañe t’ie ama’e:
and the truth is not in him; bit if any man obey his word, in him truly is the love of God made perfect. By this we come to know that we are in him.
6 ze manao te mimoneñe ama’e ao, tsy mahay tsy mañavelo amy fañaveloa’ey.
By who says he "remains in him" ought to spend his life as he spent his.
7 O ry rañetseo, tsy isokirako lily vao, fa i lily haehae tama’ areo am-pifotorañ’ añey. I lily taoloy i tsara jinanji’ areoy.
Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, nay, and old commandment, which you have had from the beginning. That old commandment is the message to which you have listened.
8 Tovo’e, isokirako lily vao, ze tò ama’e naho ama’ areo, amy te mihelañ’ añe i ieñey vaho mireandreañe i toe hazàvañey.
Yet again it is a new commandment which I am writing to you, which is true in him and is you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.
9 Ze manao te an-kazavañe f’ie malain-dongo le mbe añ’ieñe ao.
He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now.
10 Mimoneñe an-kazavañe ao ty mikoko rahalahy, le tsy ama’e ty hahatsikapy aze.
But he who loves his brother is abiding in the light, and in it there is no cause of stumbling.
11 Fe añ’ ieñe ao ty malain-dongo le an-kamoromoroñañe ao ty andenà’e, vaho alik’ ama’e ty hombà’e fa nigoà’ i ieñey o maso’eo.
But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and is spending his life in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
12 Manokitse ama’ areo iraho ry keleiako, fa votso-kakeo añamy tahina’ey.
I am writing to you, little children, because you sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.
13 Manokitse ama’ areo iraho ry aba, amy te fohi’ areo i boak’am-baloha’ey. Manokitse ama’ areo iraho ry ajalahio, fa nahagioke i ratiy. Nanokitse ama’ areo iraho ry kabìy, amy te mahafohiñe an-dRae.
I am writing to you, fathers, because you have come to know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have fully overcome the Evil One. I have written to you, little children, because you have learned to know the father.
14 Nanokitse ama’ areo iraho, ry aba, amy te fohi’ areo i boak’am-baloha’ey. Nanokitse ama’ areo iraho ry ajalahy, amy te maozatse, naho mimoneñe ama’ areo ao o tsaran’ Añahareo, vaho fa nahareketse i ratiy.
I have written to you, fathers, because you have learned to know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is abiding in you, and you have fully overcome the Evil One.
15 Ko mikoko ty voatse toy, ndra o raha ami’ty voatse toio. Naho eo ty mikoko ty voatse toy, tsy ama’e ty fikokoan-dRae.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 Toe tsy boak’ aman-dRae fa hirik’ ami’ty voatse toy ze an-tane atoy iaby—ty hadrao’ o nofotseo, ty fihañam-pihaino naho ty fisengean-kaveloñe.—
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the proud glory of life, is not from the Father, but from the world;
17 Fa mihelañe añe ty voatse toy naho o ìna rati’eo, fe ho veloñe nainai’e ty manao o satrin’ Añahareo. (aiōn g165)
and the world and its lusts are passing away, but he who ever does the will of God abides forever. (aiōn g165)
18 Ry keleiako, fa sa sahengaha’e toy; ie nahajanjiñe te ho avy i norizam-bìlañey, toe maro ty norizam-bìlañe pok’eo henaneo. Izay ty aharendrehañe t’ie fa sa honka’e.
My children, this is the last hour, and as you have heard that an antichrist was coming, and now many antichrists are already risen, whence we may know that it is the last hour.
19 Nienga an-tika iereo, fa toe tsy nimpiaman-tika. Naho toe ni-mpitraok’ aman-tika le mbe ho ni-mpiaman-tikañ’ avao; fa izay ty mampidodea te tsy ni-mpiaman-tika.
They came forth from us, but they did not belong to us. If they had belonged to us they would certainly have remained with us, but they went out that they might be manifest that they all are not of us.
20 Fa nanàvoñe anahareo i Masiñey, vaho hene fohi’areo.
Now you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 Tsy t’ie tsy mahafohiñe ty hatò ty nisokirako fa t’ie mahafohiñe, vaho tsy amam-bande ty hatò.
I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.
22 Ia ty remborake naho tsy ty mandietse te Iesoà i Norizañey. Norizam-bìlan-dre, mpitety an-dRae naho i Anakey.
Who is the liar if not the man who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, even he who disowns the Father and the Son.
23 Tsy aman-dRae ze mitety i Anakey; aman-dRae ka ze miantoke i Anakey.
Whoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father; but he who confesses the Son has the Father also. As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning abide in you.
24 Aa le ampimoneño ama’ areo ao i jinanji’ areo tam-baloha’ey. Ie imoneña’ i jinanjiñe am-baloha’ey, le himoneñe amy Anakey naho aman-dRae ao nahareo.
If what you have heard from the beginning is abiding in you, you also will ever abide in the Son and in the Father.
And this is the promise which he has promised to us even life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
26 Nisokireko ama’ areo irezao ty amo mipay hamañahio.
I have written this to you concerning those who would lead you astray.
27 F’ie, toe imoneña’ i Fanavonañe niazo’ areo ama’ey, le tsy ipaiañe ka te hatoro ondaty, fa hitoroa’ i Fanavona’ey ze he’e, ie ro to, fa tsy vande—aa ty amy nañòha’e anahareoy, le imoneño.
As to you, the unction you received from him remains ever in you, and you need no teaching from any one. But since his unction teaches you concerning all things and is true, and is no lie, abide continually in him, as it has taught you to do.
28 Ie amy zao ry keleiako, imoneño, hahatokisan-tika amy fiboaha’ey, tsy hitsolofìñe an-kasalarañe te totsake.
And now continue to abide in him, my children, so that when he shall appear we may have cheerful confidence and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
29 Kanao rendre’ areo t’ie vantañe, le fohi’ areo te hene mitoloñe ami’ty fahiti’e ze anake nampiareñe’e.
If you know that he is righteous you know also that every one who habitually practises righteousness has been born of him.
