1 Yohani 1
1 Hala hali awande ewandewila shila shata, shatahuvya hata hahalola na maso gituu, hala hatwa heenya, nakhonogitieu gakhata hujee izyo lyaomi.
We write to you about the Word of life, which has been in existence from the beginning. We write of what we have heard, of what we have seen with our eyes, of what we watched reverently and touched with our hands.
2 Na ula wuomba nakhono gituu atusimisizye pazelu natwauulola, nauyanje, nalumbilile uwomi wawilawila, owo wali hwa Dada uombesheabhonehane hulitii. (aiōnios g166)
That life was made visible, and we have seen it. We bear our testimony to it, and tell you of that eternal life which was with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios g166)
3 Hala hata halola na huunvye tuhalumbilela hulimwi antene, iishiianthele mwezye uuwngane pandwimo natii natulihanduhamohulitii nudada nu mwana wakwe uYesu uKristi.
It is of what we have seen and heard that we now tell you, so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Tubhasimbila iga amwee ishihuje ulumojelolwitu lumalihanee.
We are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 Iizi nongwa zyatahuvua efume wamwene nawalumbilele: Unguluvhe lunkhozyo muhati yakwe inkgisii nemo.
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.
6 Nkashele tuyanje huje tulipashimo numwene tujenda mwankiisi ntwaikhonpela hata bhomba lwioli
If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet continue to walk in the darkness, our words and our lives are a lie.
7 Nghatujenda muulukhozwo, tuhwavwanwa ntetente idanda lwa Yesu uKristi, umwana wakwe, itwozya afume humbivi zyonntii.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 Khaje satuli nimbivi, tuwikhopela tuvene uwanalyolii nauumo mhati yetuu.
If we say, “we have no sin,” then we are deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Khatulambe imbivi zitwu, umwene akamilishe lwoli ohu ohuwoshela imbivi ziitu natozye uwiwi wontii.
If we confess our sins, he is just and may be trusted to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all wrongdoing.
10 Khatuyangasatuwombile imbivii twaweha anilengaa umwene izyo lwa kwe naalimo mhati mlitii.
If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make God a liar, and his Word is not in us.
