< 1 UJohane 4 >

1 Bazalwane abathandekayo, lingaze labakholwa omoya bonke, kodwa bahloleni omoya ukuba libone bangabe bevela kuNkulunkulu na ngoba abaphrofethi bamanga abanengi sebekhona emhlabeni.
Ka lungpataw e naw, muitha pueng hah yuem awh hanh. Cathut koehoi ka tho e maw, ka tho hoeh e maw tie tanouk awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, moikapap e profetkaphawknaw teh het talaivan vah a kamthaw awh toe.
2 Lingamazi kanje uMoya kaNkulunkulu: Umoya wonke ovumayo ukuthi uJesu Khristu weza esenyameni uvela kuNkulunkulu,
Cathut e Muitha hah bangtelah hoi maw panue awh han tetpawiteh, tami lahoi ka tho e Jisuh Khrih ka dâw e muitha hateh, Cathut koehoi ka tho e doeh.
3 kodwa wonke umoya ongamvumiyo uJesu kawuveli kuNkulunkulu. Lowo ngumoya womphikuKhristu, elezwa ukuthi uyeza njalo osukhona khathesi emhlabeni.
Tami lahoi ka tho e Jisuh Khrih ka dâw hoeh e muitha hateh, Cathut koehoi ka tho e nahoeh. Hot patet e muitha hateh, na thai awh tangcoung e patetlah, het talaivan tho awh vaiteh, atu patenghai ka tho lahun niteh coungkacoelah kaawm e khrihkaphawk e muitha doeh.
4 Lina, bantwana abathandekayo, lingabakaNkulunkulu njalo selibanqobile ngoba lowo okini mkhulu kulalowo osemhlabeni.
Ka canaw: Nangmouh teh, Cathut hoi kâkuen e lah na o awh. Hotnaw hai na tâ awh toe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nangmouh koe lah kaawm e hateh, talaivan koe lah kaawm e hlak hoe a len.
5 Bona bangabasemhlabeni, ngakho bakhuluma ngokwengqondo yasemhlabeni njalo umhlaba uyabalalela.
Ahnimouh teh talaivan lae a tho awh dawkvah, talai e konglam hah ouk a dei awh. Talai taminaw nihai ahnimae lawk hah ouk a ngai awh.
6 Thina singabakaNkulunkulu njalo lowo omaziyo uNkulunkulu uyasilalela, kodwa lowo ongasuye kaNkulunkulu kasilaleli. Simbona ngalokhu uMoya weqiniso lomoya wamanga.
Maimouh teh, Cathut e lah doeh o awh. Cathut ka panuek e niteh, maimae lawk hah a ngâi awh. Cathut hoi kâkuen hoeh e niteh, maimae lawk hah ngâi awh hoeh. Hote hnonaw khet lahoi yah, lawkkatang muitha hoi muitha kaphawk tie hah panue awh.
7 Bangane abathandekayo kasithandaneni, ngoba uthando luvela kuNkulunkulu. Umuntu wonke othandayo uzelwe ngoNkulunkulu njalo uyamazi uNkulunkulu.
Ka pahren e naw: buet touh hoi buet touh lungpataw awh sei. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungpatawnae teh Cathut e doeh. Lungpatawnae ka tawn e tami teh Cathut ni a khe e lah ao teh, Cathut ka panuek e lahai ao.
8 Lowo ongathandiyo kamazi uNkulunkulu, ngoba uNkulunkulu uluthando.
Lungpatawnae ka tawn hoeh e tami teh, Cathut panuek hoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Cathut teh lungpatawnae lah ao.
9 UNkulunkulu walubonakalisa kanje uthando lwakhe kithi: Wathumela emhlabeni iNdodana yakhe eyiyo yodwa ukuba siphile ngayo.
Cathut ni maimouh lungpatawnae a kamnue sak e teh, Capa lahoi maimouh hring awh nahanelah, a tawn dueng e Capa het talaivan a patoun e dawkvah a kamnue sak. Hmu thai e hmaunawngha patenghai lungpataw hoehpawiteh, hmu thai hoeh e Cathut na tawng teh, bangtelamaw a lungpataw thai han.
10 Lolu luthando: kungayisikuthi sasimthanda uNkulunkulu kodwa ukuthi yena wasithanda wathumela iNdodana yakhe njengomhlatshelo wenhlawulo yezono zethu.
Maimouh ni Cathut lungpataw awh toe tie na hoeh. Cathut ni maimouh lung na pataw awh, maimae yon tha lah ao nahan Capa a patoun e dawkvah a lungpatawnae teh ao.
11 Bangane abathandekayo, njengoba uNkulunkulu wasithanda kangaka, lathi kumele sithandane.
Ka pahren e naw: Cathut ni maimouh hettelah totouh lung na pataw pawiteh, maimouh hai buet touh hoi buet touh lungkapataw awh hanlah ao.
12 Kakho owake wabona uNkulunkulu; kodwa nxa sithandana, uNkulunkulu uhlala kithi lothando lwakhe luyapheleliswa kithi.
Cathut teh apinihai nâtuek hai hmawt boihoeh. Buet touh hoi buet touh lungpataw awh pawiteh, Cathut ni maimouh dawk awm vaiteh, maimouh teh lungpatawnae hoi kawi awh han.
13 Sikwazi ngalokhu ukuthi sihlala kuye laye uhlala kithi ngoba usinike okukaMoya wakhe.
Cathut ni a Muitha na poe awh e lahoi yah, maimouh teh Cathut dawk o awh e hoi Cathut maimouh dawk ao e hah panue awh.
14 Sibonile njalo siyafakaza ukuthi uBaba uyithumele iNdodana yakhe ukuba ibe nguMsindisi womhlaba.
Talaivan taminaw ka Rungngangkung lah a coung sak nahan, Pa ni Capa a patoun e hah maimouh ni hmu awh teh kampangkhai awh.
15 Nxa umuntu evuma ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uhlala kuye laye kuNkulunkulu.
Jisuh teh Cathut Capa doeh tie ka kampangkhai e tami dawk Cathut ao teh ahni hai Cathut dawk ao.
16 Ngakho siyazi njalo sithembe uthando uNkulunkulu alalo kithi. UNkulunkulu uluthando. Ohlala ethandweni, uhlala kuNkulunkulu, loNkulunkulu kuye.
Cathut ni maimouh lungpataw e hah panue teh yuem awh. Cathut teh lungpatawnae lah ao. Lungpatawnae dawk ka hring e tami teh Cathut dawk a hring. Cathut hai ahni dawk a hring.
17 Uthando luyapheleliswa kithi ukuze sibe lesibindi ngosuku lokwahlulelwa, ngoba kulumhlaba lathi sinjengaye.
Maimouh teh lungpatawnae hoi kawi awh dawkvah, lawkcengnae hmalah taranhawi awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, maimouh teh het talaivan vah Bawipa ama patetlah doeh hring awh.
18 Ethandweni akulakwesaba. Uthando olupheleleyo luyaxotsha ukwesaba, ngoba ukwesaba kukhumbuza isijeziso. Umuntu owesabayo kapheleliswa ethandweni.
Lungpatawnae dawkvah takinae awm hoeh. Lungpatawnae niteh takinae pueng a takhoe. Bangkongtetpawiteh, takinae teh rek lah ao toe. Ka taket e tami teh lungpatawnae hoi kawi hoeh rah.
19 Siyathanda ngoba yena wasithanda kuqala.
Cathut ni hmaloe hoi lung na pataw awh dawkvah, maimouh nihai lungpataw awh.
20 Nxa umuntu esithi, “Mina ngiyamthanda uNkulunkulu,” kodwa ezonda umfowabo, ulamanga. Ngoba umuntu ongamthandiyo umfowabo ambonayo, angeke amthande uNkulunkulu angakaze ambone.
Apipatethai Cathut ka lungpataw toe ati nahlangva, a hmaunawngha hmuhma pawiteh a laithoe doeh a dei. Hmu thai e hmaunawngha patenghai, lungpataw hoehpawiteh, mit ni hmu thai hoeh e Cathut na tawng teh bangtelamaw lungpataw thai han vaw.
21 Njalo wasinika umlayo lo: Lowo othanda uNkulunkulu kumele athande lomfowabo.
Cathut lungpataw e tami niteh, a hmaunawngha hai lungpataw van han tie kâlawk teh Khrih koehoi maimouh ni coe awh toe.
