< 1 Yohanis 4 >

1 Ana susue ngga re! Mete ma atahori esa nae eni nendi Lamatualain hehelu-fufulin, na, afiꞌ simbo leliꞌ a. Te hei musi paresaꞌ matalolole fo bubꞌuluꞌ oꞌolan naa, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ mia Lamatuaꞌ nema do hokoꞌ. Te aleꞌ ia mana peko-lelekoꞌ hetar lao ndule raefafoꞌ ia ena. Ara lelekoꞌ atahori rae, sira, Lamatualain mana ola-ola nara.
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God. For many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 Hita bisa bubꞌuluꞌ hehelu-fufuliꞌ bee tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ mia Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen, taꞌo ia: Lamatualain helu memaꞌ mia lele uluꞌ a, nae haitua Anan raefafoꞌ nema. Mete ma atahori mana nendi hehelu-fufuliꞌ naa nataa nae, Yesus Kristus naa, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain Anan fo mana dadꞌi atahori onaꞌ hita, na, hehelu-fufulin memaꞌ laoꞌ mia Lamatuaꞌ.
By this you will know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,
3 Te atahori mana nda nau nataa Yesus taꞌo naa sa, eni nda naꞌoka sia Lamatualain sa. Te naa nema mia mana labꞌan neu Kristus. Hei rena mita oi, dei fo mana labꞌan Kristus naa, sou nema. Tao-tao te, mana onaꞌ naa sia raefafoꞌ ia ena.
and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and which is already in the world at this time.
4 Ana susue ngga re! Memaꞌ hei miꞌoka sia Lamatualain ma koasan sia rala mara ena. Naa de ama misenggiꞌ mana labꞌan neu Lamatuaꞌ. Huu Dula-dalen mana sia rala mara naa, manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ koasa mana sia raefafoꞌ ia.
You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
5 Te mana pepeko-leleko ra raꞌoka siaꞌ a raefafoꞌ ia. Naa de oꞌola nara o raꞌoka siaꞌ a raefafoꞌ ia hihii-nanaun boe. Ma atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia hiiꞌ a rena se.
They are of the world. That is why they speak from the world’s perspective, and the world listens to them.
6 Te hita taꞌoka sia Lamatuaꞌ. Naa de atahori mana nahine Lamatuaꞌ nau rena nggita. Ma atahori nda mana naꞌoka sia Lamatuaꞌ sa na, ara nda nau rena nggita sa. No taꞌo naa, mete ma atahori sa nae eni nendi hehelu-fufuliꞌ mia Lamatuaꞌ, hita bisa bubꞌuluꞌ bee matetuꞌ, mana maꞌokaꞌ sia Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen, ma bee pepeko-lelekoꞌ.
We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. That is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deception.
7 Ana susue ngga re! Hita musi sue-lai esa no esa, huu susueꞌ a naꞌoka sia Lamatualain. Basa atahori mana sue-laiꞌ, ara raꞌoka sia Lamatualain, ma rahine E no malole.
Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
8 Te atahori nda mana naꞌena susueꞌ a sa, nda nahine Lamatuaꞌ sa. Huu Lamatuaꞌ naa, naeni susueꞌ a.
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
9 Lamatuaꞌ natudꞌu susuen neu nggita taꞌo ia: Ana haitua Ana Mone Isen raefafoꞌ ia nema, fo soi dalaꞌ fee nggita. No taꞌo naa, ata bisa tasodꞌa takandoo to Lamatuaꞌ.
This is how God’s love was revealed among us: God sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.
10 Mete ma nau mita susue matetuꞌ a, na, afiꞌ mete neu hita susuen neu Lamatuaꞌ. Te mete neu Lamatuaꞌ susuen neu nggita, huu Ana haitua Anan nema fo mate dadꞌi neu tutunu-hohotuꞌ nggati hita ena. No taꞌo naa, Ana fee ambon neu sala-kilu tara ena, fo ata maloleꞌ baliꞌ to E.
And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
11 Ana susue ngga re! Huu Lamatualain sue-lai naseliꞌ nggita taꞌo naa, na, hita o musi sue-lai esa no esa boe.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
12 Nda hambu atahori esa boe mete nita Lamatuaꞌ relo-relo sa. Mae onaꞌ naa o, mete ma hita esa sue-lai esa, naa sosoan nae, Lamatualain naꞌabꞌue no nggita ena. Ma Susuen boe namanae sia masodꞌa tara, losa dadꞌi susue matetuꞌ a.
No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us.
13 Lamatualain fee Dula-dalen sia rala tara ena. Naa de ata bubꞌuluꞌ tae, tasodꞌa ralaꞌ esa to Lamatuaꞌ ena, ma Ana o ralaꞌ esa no nggita boe.
By this we know that we remain in Him, and He in us: He has given us of His Spirit.
14 Au o nonoo nggara mita Lamatualain Anan no hai mata aom ena. Basa de hai mifadꞌe neu basa atahori mae, Amaꞌ Lamatualain haitua Anan nema ena, fo fee masoi-masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori sia raefafoꞌ ia mia sala-kilu nara ena
And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Savior of the world.
15 Basa atahori mana rataa rae, Yesus naa, Lamatualain Anan, nasodꞌa malole baliꞌ no Lamatualain, ma Lamatuaꞌ o malolole no e boe.
If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
16 Hita bubꞌuluꞌ ena tae, Lamatuaꞌ sue naseliꞌ nggita. Naa de tamahere tae, dei fo Ana sue nakandoo nggita. Lamatuaꞌ sue naseliꞌ atahori. De atahori mana nasodꞌa ma sue-lai, nasodꞌa ralaꞌ esa no Lamatualain, ma Lamatuaꞌ o ralaꞌ esa no e boe.
And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
17 Ma, mete ma hita ralaꞌ esa to Lamatuaꞌ, na, hita susuen dadꞌi matetuꞌ. Basa fo, neu fai mateteꞌen, Lamatuaꞌ nae paresaꞌ basa atahori masodꞌa nara, na, hita nda tamatau tambariiꞌ sia Lamatuaꞌ matan sa, huu hita dadꞌi onaꞌ Kristus leleꞌ Ana nasodꞌa sia raefafoꞌ ia.
In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.
18 Mete ma hita tasodꞌa to susue-lalaiꞌ, na, nda tamedꞌa tamatau mbei sa boe. Huu mete ma hita sue no matetuꞌ, na, naa onaꞌ hita nggari hendi basa nemedꞌa nemetaus sia rala tara ena. Mete ma atahori esa namatau, na, ralan susa, huu namatau hambu huku-dokiꞌ a. Ana onaꞌ anadꞌikiꞌ nda feꞌe nahine sue atahori no matetuꞌ sa.
There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.
19 Hita sue-lai, huu Lamatualain sue-lai naꞌahuluꞌ hita ena.
We love because He first loved us.
20 Mete ma atahori sa olaꞌ nae, “Au sue-lai Lamatualain,” tao-tao te ana mburu-oeꞌ no toronoon, na, eni lelekoꞌ. Huu mete ma atahori nda sue toronoon mana sia matan sa, na, taꞌo bee fo ana bisa sue-lai Lamatualain fo nda feꞌe nitaꞌ a sa? Hokoꞌ, to?
If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
21 Huu Lamatualain naꞌondaꞌ parendaꞌ ena nae, hita afiꞌ sue-laiꞌ a Eni, te musi sue-lai toronoo atahori mamahereꞌ ra boe.
And we have this commandment from Him: Whoever loves God must love his brother as well.
