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.
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
2 Nu yommuu Waaqa jaallannuu fi yommuu ajaja isaa eegnutti akka ijoollee Waaqaa jaallannu kanaan beekna.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
3 Waaqa jaallachuun ajaja isaa eeguu dha. Ajajni isaas hin ulfaatu.
For this is loving God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
4 Namni Waaqa irraa dhalatu hundinuu addunyaa ni moʼataatii. Kan addunyaa moʼatus amantii keenya.
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.
5 Yesuus Ilma Waaqaa taʼuu isaa nama amanu malee eenyutu addunyaa moʼata?
Who is he who overcomes the world, but 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 he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
7 Dhuga baatota sadiitu jira:
For there are three who testify:
8 Isaanis Hafuura, bishaanii fi dhiiga; sadanuus walii galu.
the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as 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 receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God’s testimony which he has testified concerning 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.
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
11 Dhuga baʼumsi sunis isa kana: Waaqni jireenya bara baraa nuu kenneera; jireenyi sunis Ilma isaa keessa jira. (aiōnios g166)
The testimony is this: that God gave 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.
He who has the Son has the life. He who doesn’t have God’s Son doesn’t have the life.
13 Isin warri maqaa Ilma Waaqaatti amantan jireenya bara baraa qabaachuu keessan akka beektaniif ani waan kana isinii barreessa. (aiōnios g166)
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to 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.
This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
15 Nu yoo akka inni waan nu kadhannu hunda nuuf dhagaʼu beekne, akka waan isa kadhannes argannu ni beekna.
And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked 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.
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I don’t say that he should make a request concerning this.
17 Jalʼinni hundinuu cubbuu dha; cubbuun gara duʼaatti nama hin geessines jira.
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to 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 whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t 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 the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
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)
We know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Yaa ijoolle, waaqota tolfamoo irraa of eegaa.
Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
