< १ यूहन्ना 1 >
1 सुरुदेखि नै हुनुभएको जीवनको वचनको बारेमा, जुन हामीले सुनेका छौँ, हाम्रा आफ्नै आँखाले देखेका छौँ, हामीले विचार गरेका छौँ र हाम्रा आफ्नै हातहरूले छोएका छन्
THAT which was from the beginning, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have gazed upon, and our hands have handled of the word of life;
2 (अनि जीवन प्रकट गरियो र हामीले देखेका छौँ, गवाही दिन्छौँ, अनि तिमीहरूलाई अनन्त जीवन घोषणा गर्छौं जुन पितासँग थियो, र हामीलाई प्रकट गरिएको थियो); (aiōnios )
(for the life was manifested, and we have beheld it, and bear testimony, and declare unto you that life eternal, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us; ) (aiōnios )
3 जुन हामीले देखेका र सुनेका छौँ, हामी तिमीहरूलाई पनि घोषणा गर्छौं, ताकि हामीहरूसँग तिमीहरूको सङ्गति होस् । हाम्रो सङ्गति पिता र उहाँको पुत्र येशू ख्रीष्टसँग हुन्छ ।
that which we have seen and heard, declare we to you, that ye also may have communion with us: and indeed our communion is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 र तिमीहरूको आनन्द पुरा होस् भनेर हामी यी कुराहरू तिमीहरूलाई लेख्छौँ ।
And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be complete.
5 हामीले उहाँबाट सुनेको वचन यही हो र हामी तिमीहरूलाई घोषणा गर्छौं, कि परमेश्वर ज्योति हुनुहुन्छ र उहाँमा कुनै अन्धकार छैन ।
And this is the promise which we have heard from him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and that darkness in him there is none.
6 हामीले उहाँसँग सगङ्ति गर्छौं भनी भन्छौँ र अन्धकारमा हिँड्छौँ भने, हामी झुट बोल्छौँ र सत्य व्यवहार गर्दैनौँ ।
If we say that we have communion with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and practise not the truth:
7 तर उहाँ ज्योतिमा हुनुभएझैँ हामी ज्योतिमा हिँड्छौँ भने, हामी एक अर्कासँग सङ्गति गर्छौं, र उहाँका पुत्र येशू ख्रीष्टको रगतले हामीलाई हाम्रा सबै पापबाट शुद्ध पार्छ ।
but if we walk in the light, as he is himself in the light, we have communion with each other, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 यदि हामीले हामीसँग पाप छैन भन्छौँ भने, हामीले आफैँलाई धोका दिन्छौँ, र हामीसँग सत्य हुँदैन ।
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 तर यदि हामीले आफ्ना पापहरू स्वीकार गर्छौं भने उहाँ हामीलाई हाम्रा पापहरू क्षमा गर्न र सबै अधर्मबाट हामीलाई शुद्ध पार्न विश्वासयोग्य र धर्मी हुनुहुन्छ ।
If we confess our sins, faithful is he and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 यदि हामीले पाप गरेका छैनौँ भन्छौँ भने हामीले उहाँलाई झुटा तुल्याउँछौँ, र उहाँको वचन हामीमा हुँदैन ।
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
