1 UJohane 4
1 Bathandekayo, lingakholwa wonke umoya, kodwa hlolani omoya, ukuthi bavela kuNkulunkulu yini; ngoba banengi abaprofethi bamanga abaphumele emhlabeni.
Ngoogv ajin vdw, yvvdw ngonu dow lo doodunv vnv nga mvngjwng yoka, vbvritola Pwknvyarnv lokv aanv Dow ogudw um bunua hingkwkaakw la malin chotoka. Ogulvgavbolo mvvnv nyijwk kv achialvgo ogolo ogolo linduku.
2 Ngalokhu liyamazi uMoya kaNkulunkulu: Wonke umoya ovumayo ukuthi uJesu Kristu uzile enyameni, uvela kuNkulunkulu;
Soogv si Pwknvyarnv gv Dowv vla um nonu oguaingbv kaachin nyola redw: yvvnyiv Jisu Kristonyi nyia adwnamar gobv aapvnv vla chinla mindunv vv Pwknvyarnv lokv aanv dowa gvvdunv.
3 futhi wonke umoya ongavumiyo ukuthi uJesu Kristu usezile enyameni, kaveli kuNkulunkulu; lalo ungowomphikuKristu, eselizwile ukuthi uyeza, lakhathesi usekhona emhlabeni.
Vbvritola yvvnyiv Jisunyi adwnamar bv aapvnv vla mvngjwng madunv vv Pwknvyarnv gv lokv Dow gvvma dunv. Ninyi gvlo dow doodunv vv Kristonyi Nyimak bv rinv lokv ngv; nonu vkv nvngv aare vla minam um nonu tvvchoto, okv vjak vkv nvngv nyiamooku si aala riduku.
4 Lina lingabakaNkulunkulu, bantwanyana, futhi libanqobile; ngoba mkhulu okini kulalowo osemhlabeni.
Vbvritola ngoogv umvuu vdw, nonu Pwknvyarnv gvbv ridunv, okv nonu mvvnv nyijwk vdwa rigumriya nvngv, ogulvgavbolo nonu gvlo doonvdaknv Dow vv nyiamooku so gvbv rinv oogv dow am kaiyabv jwkrw doyadunv
5 Bona bangabomhlaba; ngenxa yalokho bakhuluma okuvela emhlabeni, njalo umhlaba uyabezwa.
Mvvnv nyijwk vdwv nyiamooku soogv ridung lvkwnglo japdu, okv nyiamooku soogv vdwv bunua tvvji nyadu ogulvgavbolo bunu sichingmooku so gvbv ridunv.
6 Thina singabakaNkulunkulu; omaziyo uNkulunkulu, uyasizwa; ongeyisuye kaNkulunkulu, kasizwa. Ngalokhu siyamazi umoya weqiniso lomoya wokuduha.
Vbvritola ngonu Pwknvyarnv gvbv ridunv. Yvvdw Pwknvyarnvnyi chindudw vv ngonuam tvvjidu; Yvvdw Pwknvyarnv gvbv rimadudw vv ngonua tvvmadu. Vbvrikunamv, ngonu jvjvnv Dow vla okv alvmanv dow vla ngonu angu sinam am kaachin sila dukunv.
7 Bathandekayo, asithandaneni; ngoba uthando luvela kuNkulunkulu, laye wonke othandayo, uzelwe nguNkulunkulu, futhi uyamazi uNkulunkulu.
Ngoogv ajin vdwv, Kaju ngonu pakmi sidukalam laju, ogulvgavbolo paknam si Pwknvyarnv lokv aadunv. Yvvdw pakmi sidudw vv Pwknvyarnv gv umvuu ngv okv Pwknvyarnvnyi chindunv.
8 Ongathandiyo, kamazi uNkulunkulu; ngoba uNkulunkulu uluthando.
Yvvdw pakmi simadudw vv Pwknvyarnvnyi chimadunv, ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv ngv paknv.
9 Ngalokhu uthando lukaNkulunkulu lwabonakaliswa kithi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu wathuma iNdodana yakhe ezelwe yodwa emhlabeni, ukuze siphile ngayo.
Okv Pwknvyarnv ninyigv paknam am kaatam nvdubv ngonu lvgabv nyiamooku so ninyigv Kuunyilo akina jilwkto, vkvlvgavbolo ninyigv lokv ngonuam turnam am paamu dukubv vla ritoku.
10 Uthando lukulokhu, kungesikuthi thina samthanda uNkulunkulu, kodwa ukuthi yena wasithanda, wasethuma iNdodana yakhe ukuthi ibe yinhlawulo yokuthula ngezono zethu.
Paknamv sibvching ridu: Si ngonugv Pwknvyarnvnyi paknam lokvma, vbvritola si ninyigv paknam lokv okv ngonugv rimur am mvngnga kunam lvgabv ninyigv kuunyilo akina jilwk kunamv.
11 Bathandekayo, uba uNkulunkulu wasithanda ngokunje, lathi sifanele ukuthandana.
Ngoogv ajin vdw, Pwknvyarnv ngonua ogubv vbv pakdu bolo ngonuka ajin anyingnga pakmi sila ridukubv rirung tokuka.
12 Kakulamuntu owake wabona uNkulunkulu; uba sithandana, uNkulunkulu uhlala kithi, lothando lwakhe luphelelisiwe kithi.
Yvvka Pwknvyarnvnyi vdwloka kaakanv kaama, vbvrijvka ngonu ajin anyingnga pakmi sibolo, Pwknvyarnv ngonua lvkin gobv riming gvvdunv, okv ninyigv paknamv ngonugv arwnglo rvbwngmola riduku.
13 Ngalokhu siyazi ukuthi sihlala kuye, laye kithi, ngoba usinikile okukaMoya wakhe.
Ngonu chirung sudu ngonu Pwknvyarnv gvlo lvkin gobv riming gvdu okv ninyika ngonu gvlo lvkin gobv reming gvvdu, ogulvgavbolo hv ngonua ninyigv Dow am jitoku.
14 Thina sesibonile siyafakaza ukuthi uYise uyithumile iNdodana ibe nguMsindisi womhlaba.
Okv Pwknvyarnv Abu ninyigv kuunyilo nga nyiamooku am ringnvbaanv gobv jilwk nama ngonu kaatoku okv kvvbia minjitoku.
15 Loba ngubani ovumayo ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu, uNkulunkulu uhlala kuye, laye kuNkulunkulu.
Yvvdw Jisu Kristo Pwknvyarnv gv Kuunyilo ngv vla minchar jikubolo, hv Pwknvyarnv gv lvkobv riming gvvdunv okv Pwknvyarnv ka ninyigv lvkobv riming gvvdu.
16 Thina sesisazi sakholwa uthando uNkulunkulu alalo kithi. UNkulunkulu uluthando, njalo ohlala ethandweni uhlala kuNkulunkulu, loNkulunkulu kuye.
Okv Pwknvyarnv gv ngonu lvgabv oogv pakmi sidubv jinam am ngonu atubongv chinsudu okv mvngjwngdu. Pwknvyarnv ngv paknamv, okv yvvdw Pakmi sinamlo doodunv Pwknvyarnv gvlo lvkin gobv riming gvvdu okv Pwknvyarnv ka bunua lvkobv riming gvvdu.
17 Ngalokhu uthando luphelelisiwe lathi, ukuze sibe lesibindi osukwini lokwahlulelwa, ngoba njengalokhu enjalo yena, sinjalo lathi kulumhlaba.
Jwngkadaka dw alunyi ho ngonuv pvktvpwkru nyola nam lvgabv Pakmi sinamv ngonua pvbwngvrwng dubv mvduku; okv ngonu gvlo sum vbv paarungre ogulvgavbolo nyiamooku soka ngonugv turla rinamv Kristo gv rinam aingbv ridu.
18 Kakukho ukwesaba ethandweni, kodwa uthando olupheleleyo luyaxotsha ukwesaba, ngoba ukwesaba kulobuhlungu; lowesabayo kapheleliswanga ethandweni.
Ho pakmi sinam lvgabv busukano namgo kaama; pvbwngvrwng bv pakmi sinamv busunam mvnwng nga charla chara dukunv. Vbvrikunamv, yvvgvlo busukano namgo doodudw vkvgvlo paknamv pvbwngvrwng namgo kaamadu, vkvlvgabv busunam si mvrit namlo dooming gvvdu.
19 Thina siyamthanda, ngoba yena wasithanda kuqala.
Ngonu Pakdu ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv ngonua pakcho gvvtoku.
20 Uba umuntu esithi: Ngiyamthanda uNkulunkulu, njalo ezonda umzalwane wakhe, ungumqambimanga; ngoba ongamthandiyo umzalwane wakhe ambonileyo, angamthanda njani uNkulunkulu angambonanga?
Ngonu mindu Pwknvyarnvnyi ngonu pakdu vbvritola kvvbi am kaanwng madubolo, vv ngonu mvvnv bv ridu. Holvgabv ngonu kaapanam, kvbi ajin vdwsom pakma dunv bolo, ngonu kaapa nyoka manam, Pwknvyarnvnyi ngonu pakla nyomadu.
21 Njalo silalumlayo ovela kuye, ukuthi othanda uNkulunkulu, kamthande lomzalwane wakhe.
Kristo svkvnv gaam sum gamki jila ngonua jilwk kunam si: yvvdw Pwknvyarnvnyi pakdunv vv kvvbi vdwaka paktoka.
