< 1 Yohani 1 >

1 Tuwalembera mwenga kuusu Shisoweru gwa ukomu yakaweriti kwanjira kwanja. Twenga tupata kumpikinira na kumuwona kwa masu getu twaweni, tumloliti na kumkola kwa mawoku getu twaweni.
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
2 Ukomu ayu pakalawiriti twenga tumuwoniti na tutakula visoweru vyakuwi na kuwabwelera ukomu ayu gwa mashaka goseri, yakaweriti kwa Tati na kalanguziyitwi kwa twenga. (aiōnios g166)
(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us); (aiōnios g166)
3 Tuwabwelera mwenga shilii shatushiwoniti na kushipikinira, su mwenga mpati kutenda pamuhera natwenga muwumu yatuwera nagu na Tati na Mwana gwakuwi Yesu Kristu.
that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Twankuwalembera vitwatira avi su nemeleru ya twenga imalilika.
And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
5 Su ujumbi yatuwupikaniriti kwakuwi na yatuwabwelera mwenga kuwera Mlungu ndo ulangala na kwakuwi kwahera luwindu nakamu.
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 Patulonga kuwera twana uwumu nayomberi na uganu patugendagenda muluwindu, twenga tupaya na matendu getu ganakaka ndiri.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
7 Kumbiti patugendagenda muulangala gambira Mlungu ntambu yakalikala muulangala, su hatuweri na umu twaweni gweka na mwazi gwakuwi Yesu Kristu, Mwana gwakuwi, gwankutupunga vidoda vyoseri.
But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 Patutakula kuwera twahera vidoda, twankulipayira twaweni na unakaka kwahera mngati mwetu.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Kumbiti patuleka vidoda vyatutenda, yomberi ndo mwaminika na muheri mashaka goseri, hakatulekiziyi vidoda vyetu na kutupunga ukondola woseri.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Patutakula kuwera tutenda ndiri vidoda, hatumtendi Mlungu kuwera mpayira na shisoweru shakuwi kwahera mngati mwetu.
If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
