1 Yohani 3
1 Su muloli Tati ntambu yakatufiriti nentu ata tushemwa wana wa Mlungu. Nakaka ndo ntambu yatuwera. Mana wantu wa pasipanu watumana ndiri twenga, toziya womberi wamumaniti ndiri Mlungu.
Behold how great love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this reason, the world does not know us, because it did not know him.
2 Waganja wangu, vinu twenga tuwera wana wa Mlungu, kumbiti hayeniwoneki paweru ntambu hatuweri. Kumbiti tuvimana kuwera Kristu pakalawira, hatulifani nayomberi toziya hatumwoni ntambu yakawera.
Beloved, now we are the children of God; but it does not yet appear what we shall be. However, we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him--that we shall see him as he is.
3 Kila muntu yakawera na matumbiru aga mu Kristu, su kalipungi mweni gambira Kristu ntambu yakawera mnanagala.
And every one who has this hope in him purifies himself, even as He is pure.
4 Kila muntu yakatenda vidoda kalilema Lilagaliru lya Mlungu, toziya kutenda vidoda ndo kuhalibisiya Malagaliru ga Mlungu.
Every one who works sin, works also the transgression of law; for sin is the transgression of law.
5 Mwenga muvimana kuwera Kristu kiziti su kawusiyi vidoda na kwahera vidoda mngati mwakuwi.
Moreover, you know that he was manifested that he might take away our sins--and in him is no sin.
6 Su kila yakalikolerana pamuhera na Kristu, hapeni kendereyi kutenda vidoda, kumbiti kila muntu yakendereya kutenda vidoda hakenipati ng'o kumwona ama kumumana Kristu.
Whoever abides in him, does not sin. Whoever sins has not seen him, neither has known him.
7 Su wana wangu, namumjimira muntu yoseri kawapayili! Muntu yakatenda matendu yagamfiriziya Mlungu, yomberi kafiriziwa na Mlungu gambira Kristu ntambu yakafiriziwa na Mlungu.
Little children, let no one deceive you: he who works righteousness, is righteous, even as He is righteous.
8 Muntu yakendereya kutenda vidoda kawera gwa Mkondola, toziya Mkondola katenditi vidoda kwanjira kwanja. Kumbiti Mwana gwa Mlungu kiziti pasipanu kugahalabisiya mahengu ga Mkondola.
He who works sin, is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Kila muntu yakawera mwana gwa Mlungu hapeni kendereyi kutendi vidoda, toziya ukomu wa Mlungu ulikala mngati mwakuwi, yomberi hapeni kendereyi kutenda vidoda toziya kawera mwana gwa Mlungu.
Whoever has been begotten by God, does not work sin; because his seed abides in him; and he can not sin, because he has been begotten by God.
10 Kwantambu ayi tuweza kuwamana wana wa Mlungu na viraa kuwamana wana wa Mkondola. Muntu yoseri yakamfiriziya ndiri Mlungu na muntu yakamfira ndiri mlongu gwakuwi, womberi wawera ndiri wana wa Mlungu.
By this the children of God are discovered, and the children of the devil: whoever works not righteousness, is not of God, neither he who loves not his brother.
11 Na ujumbi yamuwupikaniriti kwanjira kwanja ndo awu, tulifiri twaweni kwa twaweni.
For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
12 Natuwera gambira Kaini yakaweriti gwa Mkondola ulii, yakamlagiti mupusi gwakuwi. Kwa ntambu gaa kamlagiti? Toziya matendu gakuwi gaweriti makondola, kumbiti matendu galii ga mlongu gwakuwi gaweriti ga kumfiriziya Mlungu.
Not being of the wicked one, as Cain was, who slew his brother. And on account of what, did he slay him? Because his own works were wicked, and his brother's righteous.
13 Walongu wangu, namulikangasha handa wantu wa pasipanu pawakalalira mwenga.
Do not wonder, my brethren, that the world hates you.
14 Twenga tuvimana kuwera tupita kala mukuhowa na twingira muwukomu, toziya twankuwafira walongu wetu. Kila muntu yakahera ufiru kankusigala mukuhowa.
We know that we have passed away from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who loves not his brother, abides in death.
15 Kila muntu yakamkalalira mlongu gwakuwi kawera mlaga na mwenga muvimana kuwera mlaga yoseri ulii kahera ukomu wa mashaka goseri mngati mwakuwi. (aiōnios g166)
Every one who hates his brother, is a manslayer; and you know that no manslayer has eternal life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
16 Kwa ntambu ayi twenga tuvimana ufiru wa Mlungu, toziya Yesu Kristu kagalaviyiti makaliru gakuwi kwajili yatwenga. Na twenga viraa vilii tufiruwa kugalaviya makaliru getu kwajili ya walongu wetu.
By this we have known the love of Christ, because he laid down his life for us; therefore we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 Su muntu pakawera na lunda zya pasipanu, shakapanu pakamwona mlongu gwakuwi kamuhushu, kumbiti kamwonera ndiri lusungu, muntu ayu kaweza hashi kulonga kuwera kana ufiru wa Mlungu mngati mwakuwi?
Whoever, therefore, has the goods of this world, and sees his brother in need, and yet shuts up his compassion from him, how abides the love of God in him?
18 Wana wangu, natufira kwa visoweru hera kumbiti tufiri kwa matendu na muwunakaka.
My little children, let us not love in word, nor in tongue; but in deed, and in truth.
19 Hangu ndo ntambu yatuweza kuvimana kuwera twenga tuwera wantu wanakaka, su hapeni tutili kulongolu kwa Mlungu.
For by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
20 Ata myoyu yetu payitutoza, tuvimana kuwera Mlungu ndo mkulu kuliku myoyu yetu, na kamana kila shintu.
But if our heart condemn us, certainly God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Walongu wangu, handa myoyu yetu payitutoza ndiri, su twenga hapeni tutili kulongolu kwa Mlungu,
Beloved, if our heart do not condemn us, we have confidence with God.
22 na kwanka shoseri shatuluwa, toziya tugajimira malagaliru gakuwi na kutenda galii yagamfiriziya.
And whatever we ask, we receive from him; because we keep his commandments, and do the things which are pleasing in his sight.
23 Na lilagaliru lyakuwi ndo ali, kumjimira Mwana gwakuwi Yesu Kristu na kulifira twenga kwa twenga gambira mweni ntambu yakatulagaliriti.
For this is his commandment, that we should believe on the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and should love one another as he gave us commandment.
24 Muntu yakagajimira malagaliru ga Mlungu, yomberi kankulikala mukulikolerana pamuhera na Mlungu na Mlungu kankulikala mukulikolerana pamuhera nayomberi. Twenga tuvimana kuwera Mlungu kankulikala mukulikolerana pamuhera natwenga kupitira Rohu Mnanagala yakatupananiti.
Now he who keeps His commandments, abides in him, and He in him; and by this we know that he abides in us, even by the Spirit, which he has given us.
