1 UJohane 5
1 Wonke okholwa ukuthi uJesu unguKristu uzelwe nguNkulunkulu; laye wonke othanda umzali uthanda lozelwe nguye.
yīśurabhiṣiktastrātēti yaḥ kaścid viśvāsiti sa īśvarāt jātaḥ; aparaṁ yaḥ kaścit janayitari prīyatē sa tasmāt jātē janē 'pi prīyatē|
2 Ngalokho siyazi ukuthi siyabathanda abantwana bakaNkulunkulu, nxa sithanda uNkulunkulu, njalo sigcina imilayo yakhe;
vayam īśvarasya santānēṣu prīyāmahē tad anēna jānīmō yad īśvarē prīyāmahē tasyājñāḥ pālayāmaśca|
3 ngoba lolu luthando lukaNkulunkulu, ukuthi sigcine imilayo yakhe; lemilayo yakhe kayinzima.
yata īśvarē yat prēma tat tadīyājñāpālanēnāsmābhiḥ prakāśayitavyaṁ, tasyājñāśca kaṭhōrā na bhavanti|
4 Ngoba konke okuzelwe nguNkulunkulu kuyawunqoba umhlaba; lalokho yikunqoba okunqoba umhlaba, ukholo lwethu.
yatō yaḥ kaścid īśvarāt jātaḥ sa saṁsāraṁ jayati kiñcāsmākaṁ yō viśvāsaḥ sa ēvāsmākaṁ saṁsārajayijayaḥ|
5 Ngubani onqoba umhlaba, ngaphandle kokholwa ukuthi uJesu uyiNdodana kaNkulunkulu?
yīśurīśvarasya putra iti yō viśvasiti taṁ vinā kō'paraḥ saṁsāraṁ jayati?
6 Lo nguye oweza ngamanzi legazi, uJesu Kristu; kungeyisikho ngamanzi kuphela, kodwa ngamanzi legazi. LoMoya nguye ofakazayo, ngoba uMoya uliqiniso.
sō'bhiṣiktastrātā yīśustōyarudhirābhyām āgataḥ kēvalaṁ tōyēna nahi kintu tōyarudhirābhyām, ātmā ca sākṣī bhavati yata ātmā satyatāsvarūpaḥ|
7 Ngoba bathathu abafakazayo ezulwini, uYise, uLizwi, loMoya oNgcwele; laba abathathu banye.
yatō hētōḥ svargē pitā vādaḥ pavitra ātmā ca traya imē sākṣiṇaḥ santi, traya imē caikō bhavanti|
8 Njalo bathathu abafakazayo emhlabeni, uMoya, lamanzi, legazi; laba abathathu bahlanganyela intonye.
tathā pr̥thivyām ātmā tōyaṁ rudhirañca trīṇyētāni sākṣyaṁ dadāti tēṣāṁ trayāṇām ēkatvaṁ bhavati ca|
9 Uba sisemukela ubufakazi babantu, ubufakazi bukaNkulunkulu bukhulu; ngoba lobu yibufakazi bukaNkulunkulu, abufakazileyo ngeNdodana yakhe.
mānavānāṁ sākṣyaṁ yadyasmābhi rgr̥hyatē tarhīśvarasya sākṣyaṁ tasmādapi śrēṣṭhaṁ yataḥ svaputramadhīśvarēṇa dattaṁ sākṣyamidaṁ|
10 Okholwa eNdodaneni kaNkulunkulu ulobufakazi phakathi kwakhe ngokwakhe; ongakholwa uNkulunkulu, umenze abe ngumqambimanga, ngoba engakholwanga ubufakazi uNkulunkulu abufakazileyo ngeNdodana yakhe.
īśvarasya putrē yō viśvāsiti sa nijāntarē tat sākṣyaṁ dhārayati; īśvarē yō na viśvasiti sa tam anr̥tavādinaṁ karōti yata īśvaraḥ svaputramadhi yat sākṣyaṁ dattavān tasmin sa na viśvasiti|
11 Yilobu-ke ubufakazi, ukuthi uNkulunkulu usinikile impilo elaphakade, lale impilo iseNdodaneni yakhe. (aiōnios g166)
tacca sākṣyamidaṁ yad īśvarō 'smabhyam anantajīvanaṁ dattavān tacca jīvanaṁ tasya putrē vidyatē| (aiōnios g166)
12 Olayo iNdodana ulempilo; ongelayo iNdodana kaNkulunkulu kalampilo.
yaḥ putraṁ dhārayati sa jīvanaṁ dhāriyati, īśvarasya putraṁ yō na dhārayati sa jīvanaṁ na dhārayati|
13 Lezizinto ngizibhalela lina elikholwa ebizweni leNdodana kaNkulunkulu, ukuze lazi ukuthi lilempilo elaphakade, lokuze likholwe ebizweni leNdodana kaNkulunkulu. (aiōnios g166)
īśvaraputrasya nāmni yuṣmān pratyētāni mayā likhitāni tasyābhiprāyō 'yaṁ yad yūyam anantajīvanaprāptā iti jānīyāta tasyēśvaraputrasya nāmni viśvasēta ca| (aiōnios g166)
14 Njalo yilesi isibindi esilaso kuye, ukuthi uba sicela ulutho ngokwentando yakhe, uyasizwa;
tasyāntikē 'smākaṁ yā pratibhā bhavati tasyāḥ kāraṇamidaṁ yad vayaṁ yadi tasyābhimataṁ kimapi taṁ yācāmahē tarhi sō 'smākaṁ vākyaṁ śr̥ṇōti|
15 uba-ke sisazi ukuthi uyasizwa, loba yini esiyicelayo, siyazi ukuthi sesilezicelo esizicela kuye.
sa cāsmākaṁ yat kiñcana yācanaṁ śr̥ṇōtīti yadi jānīmastarhi tasmād yācitā varā asmābhiḥ prāpyantē tadapi jānīmaḥ|
16 Uba umuntu ebona umzalwane wakhe esona isono esingasi ekufeni, uzacela, njalo uzamnika impilo labo abangonelanga ekufeni. Sikhona isono esisa ekufeni; kangitsho ukuthi ancenge ngaleso;
kaścid yadi svabhrātaram amr̥tyujanakaṁ pāpaṁ kurvvantaṁ paśyati tarhi sa prārthanāṁ karōtu tēnēśvarastasmai jīvanaṁ dāsyati, arthatō mr̥tyujanakaṁ pāpaṁ yēna nākāritasmai| kintu mr̥tyujanakam ēkaṁ pāpam āstē tadadhi tēna prārthanā kriyatāmityahaṁ na vadāmi|
17 konke ukungalungi kuyisono; njalo kukhona isono esingasi ekufeni.
sarvva ēvādharmmaḥ pāpaṁ kintu sarvvapāṁpa mr̥tyujanakaṁ nahi|
18 Siyazi ukuthi wonke ozelwe nguNkulunkulu koni; kodwa ozelwe nguNkulunkulu uyazigcina, lomubi kamthinti.
ya īśvarāt jātaḥ sa pāpācāraṁ na karōti kintvīśvarāt jātō janaḥ svaṁ rakṣati tasmāt sa pāpātmā taṁ na spr̥śatīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
19 Siyazi ukuthi singabakaNkulunkulu, lokuthi umhlaba wonke ulele ebubini.
vayam īśvarāt jātāḥ kintu kr̥tsnaḥ saṁsāraḥ pāpātmanō vaśaṁ gatō 'stīti jānīmaḥ|
20 Njalo siyazi ukuthi iNdodana kaNkulunkulu isifikile, yasinika ukuqedisisa ukuze simazi oweqiniso; njalo sikuye oweqiniso, eNdodaneni yakhe uJesu Kristu. Yena unguNkulunkulu weqiniso, lempilo elaphakade. (aiōnios g166)
aparam īśvarasya putra āgatavān vayañca yayā tasya satyamayasya jñānaṁ prāpnuyāmastādr̥śīṁ dhiyam asmabhyaṁ dattavān iti jānīmastasmin satyamayē 'rthatastasya putrē yīśukhrīṣṭē tiṣṭhāmaśca; sa ēva satyamaya īśvarō 'nantajīvanasvarūpaścāsti| (aiōnios g166)
21 Bantwanyana, zilondolozeni ezithombeni. Ameni.
hē priyabālakāḥ, yūyaṁ dēvamūrttibhyaḥ svān rakṣata| āmēn|
