1 Yohannis 5
1 Yesuus kun Kiristoos akka taʼe namni amanu hundinuu Waaqa irraa dhalate; namni Abbaa jaallatu hundinuus kan Abbaa irraa dhalates ni jaallata.
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God. And everyone who loves God, who provides that birth, also loves him who has been born of God.
2 Nu yommuu Waaqa jaallannuu fi yommuu ajaja isaa eegnutti akka ijoollee Waaqaa jaallannu kanaan beekna.
In this way, we know that we love those born of God: when we love God and do his commandments.
3 Waaqa jaallachuun ajaja isaa eeguu dha. Ajajni isaas hin ulfaatu.
For this is the love of God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not heavy.
4 Namni Waaqa irraa dhalatu hundinuu addunyaa ni moʼataatii. Kan addunyaa moʼatus amantii keenya.
For all that is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world: our faith.
5 Yesuus Ilma Waaqaa taʼuu isaa nama amanu malee eenyutu addunyaa moʼata?
Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God!
6 Inni bishaanii fi dhiigaan dhufe isa kana; innis Yesuus Kiristoos. Inni bishaanii fi dhiigaan dhufe malee bishaan qofaan hin dhufne. Kanas Hafuuratu dhugaa baʼa; Hafuurri dhugaadhaatii.
This is the One who came by water and blood: Jesus Christ. Not by water only, but by water and blood. And the Spirit is the One who testifies that the Christ is the Truth.
7 Dhuga baatota sadiitu jira:
For there are Three who give testimony in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit. And these Three are One.
8 Isaanis Hafuura, bishaanii fi dhiiga; sadanuus walii galu.
And there are three who give testimony on earth: the Spirit, and the water, and the blood. And these three are one.
9 Dhuga baʼumsa namaa ni fudhanna; dhuga baʼumsi Waaqaa garuu kana caalaa guddaa dha; dhuga baʼumsi kun isa Waaqni waaʼee Ilma isaa dhugaa baʼe sana.
If we accept the testimony of men, then the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God, which is greater: that he has testified about his Son.
10 Namni Ilma Waaqaatti amanu kam iyyuu dhuga baʼumsa kana garaa isaa keessaa qaba. Namni Waaqa hin amanne garuu waan isa Waaqni waaʼee Ilma isaa dhugaa baʼe sana hin amaniniif inni Waaqa sobduu godheera.
Whoever believes in the Son of God, holds the testimony of God within himself. Whoever does not believe in the Son, makes him a liar, because he does not believe in the testimony which God has testified about his Son.
11 Dhuga baʼumsi sunis isa kana: Waaqni jireenya bara baraa nuu kenneera; jireenyi sunis Ilma isaa keessa jira. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the testimony which God has given to us: Eternal Life. And this Life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Namni Ilma sana qabu jireenya qaba; namni Ilma Waaqaa hin qabne immoo jireenya hin qabu.
Whoever has the Son, has Life. Whoever does not have the Son, does not have Life.
13 Isin warri maqaa Ilma Waaqaatti amantan jireenya bara baraa qabaachuu keessan akka beektaniif ani waan kana isinii barreessa. (aiōnios g166)
I am writing this to you, so that you may know that you have Eternal Life: you who believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Ija jabinni nu fuula Waaqaa duratti qabnu isa kana: yoo nu akka fedhii isaatti waan hunda isa kadhanne inni nuuf dhagaʼa.
And this is the confidence which we have toward God: that no matter what we shall request, in accord with his will, he hears us.
15 Nu yoo akka inni waan nu kadhannu hunda nuuf dhagaʼu beekne, akka waan isa kadhannes argannu ni beekna.
And we know that he hears us, no matter what we request; so we know that we can obtain the things that we request of him.
16 Namni kam iyyuu utuu obboleessi isaa cubbuu gara duʼaatti hin geessine hojjetuu yoo arge Waaqa kadhachufii qaba; Waaqnis warra cubbuun isaanii gara duʼaatti isaan hin geessineef jireenya ni kenna. Cubbuun gara duʼaatti nama geessu jira; anis waan akkasiitiif inni haa kadhatu jechuu koo miti.
Anyone who realizes that his brother has sinned, with a sin that is not unto death, let him pray, and life shall be given to him who has sinned not unto death. There is a sin which is unto death. I am not saying that anyone should ask on behalf of that sin.
17 Jalʼinni hundinuu cubbuu dha; cubbuun gara duʼaatti nama hin geessines jira.
All that is iniquity is sin. But there is a sin unto death.
18 Namni Waaqa irraa dhalate kam iyyuu akka cubbuu hojjechuutti hin fufne ni beekna; Inni Waaqa irraa dhalate sun isa eega; inni hamaan isa tuquu hin dandaʼu.
We know that everyone who is born of God does not sin. Instead, rebirth in God preserves him, and the evil one cannot touch him.
19 Nu ijoollee Waaqaa akka taane, addunyaan guutuunis toʼannaa isa hamaa sanaa jala akka jiru ni beekna.
We know that we are of God, and that the entire world is established in wickedness.
20 Akkasumas akka Ilmi Waaqaa dhufee akka isa dhugaa taʼe sanas beeknuuf hubannaa nuu kenne ni beekna. Nus Ilma isaa isa dhugaa sana, jechuunis Yesuus Kiristoositti jirra. Inni Waaqa dhugaa ti; jireenya bara baraatis. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God has arrived, and that he has given us understanding, so that we may know the true God, and so that we may remain in his true Son. This is the true God, and this is Eternal Life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Yaa ijoolle, waaqota tolfamoo irraa of eegaa.
Little sons, keep yourselves from false worship. Amen.
