1 Yohani 2
1 Bhana bhane bhi gane lyane, embasimbila enongwa ezi aje umuntu asabhombe embombo embibhi. Lelo nkashele umoabhombile embibhi, ahweli yatilabhi yaki pandwemo nu Daada, uYesu Kristu yasali ne mbibhi.
My children, these things I write to you, that ye sin not. But if any one should sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus the Messiah, the righteous.
2 Umwene yukundanyi hu mbibhi zyetu, se huje ne mbibhi zyetu zyene, lelo nensi yonti.
For he is himself the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for all the world.
3 Hwezi tamanya aje timenye umwene, nkashele tazibhesha endajizyo zyakwe.
And by this we shall be sensible that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 Umuntu yaiga, “Emenye Ungulubhi,” lelo siga azikhata endajizyo zyakwe, anilenga, nezye lyoli nazimo mumwoyo gwakwe.
For he that saith, I know him, and doth not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 Umuntu yakhata izu lyakwe, lyoli umuntu uyo uluhano lwa Ngulubhi lukha la mwuyo. Eshi timenye aje tilimuhati yakwe.
But he that keepeth his word, in him is the love of God truly completed: for by this we know that we are in him.
6 Umuntu yaiga edela mwa Ngulubhe ahwanziwa yuyo ahwendelele neshi u Yesu Kristi sha hendeleye.
He that saith, I am in him, is bound to walk according to his walkings.
7 Bhayaa sembasimbila amweendajizyo enkuulu yamwali nayo ahwande hali, endajizyo eyehali lizu lyamwalyumvwizye.
My beloved, I write no new commandment to you, but the old commandment which ye had from the beginning; and the old commandment is the word, which ye have heard.
8 Lelo eshi embasimbila endajizyo empya, eyelyoli hwa Yesu na hulimwe, maana enkisi eshila, nolukhozyo lwa lyoli lukhozya.
Again, a new commandment I write to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness hath passed away, and the true light beginneth to appear.
9 Umuntu yaiga endi mulukhozyo lelo ahuvitwa uholo wakwe uyo ali muhisi paka eshi.
Whoever therefore shall say that he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness until now.
10 Umuntu yahugana uholo wakwe uyo adeela mulukhozyo nantele nalimo lyali bhajiye ahuvisye.
He that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and in him is no stumbling.
11 Lelo ula yahuvitwa uholo wakwe uyo alimuhisi nawtele ajenda muhisi; nawtele samenye hwabhaka, maana ehisi egojile amaso salola.
But he that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness; and he knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
12 Embasimbila amwe, mubhana bhigane, maana msajiilwe embibhi zyenyu hunongwa yi tawalyakwe.
I write to you, ye children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
13 Embasimbila amwe, mwa daada, amwe mumenye yali hale embasimbila amwe mwasahalana lendu, mumenile ula ubhibhi emasimbiye amwe mubhanamwa dodo, mumenye udaada.
I write to you, ye fathers, because ye have known him who existed from the beginning. I write to you, ye young men, because ye have vanquished the evil one.
14 Embasimbiye amwe mwasuhala na lendu, muli ni khone ne izu elyaNgulubhi likhala hulimwe nantele mumenile ula ubhibhi.
I have written to you, ye little ones, because ye have known the Father. I have written to you, ye fathers, because ye have known him who was from the beginning, I have written to you, ye young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God dwelleth in you, and ye have vanquished the evil one.
15 Msaigane ensi nagaala gafiali munsi. Ula yaigana ensi, ulugano lwa Ngulubhi nalumo mumwoyo gwakwe.
Love not the world, nor any thing in it; for whoever loveth the world, hath not the love of the Father in him.
16 Shila hantu hahali munsi- zyazizilisya ubele, zyazizilisya amaso na mabado age womi sezifuma hwa daada vifuma munsi.
For all that is in the world, is, the lust of the body, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of the world; which are not from the Father, but from the world itself.
17 Ensi eshila nenzilisyo zyakwe zyonti. Lelo uyabhomba enzaNgulubhi akhala wila na wila. (aiōn g165)
And the world is passing away, both it and the lust thereof; but he that doeth the pleasure of God, abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
18 Mubhana mubhadoda ensiku ezi zyahumalishilo. Nenshi shamwahumvwizye huju yahukhana uYesu ahwenza, neshi bhabhahukhana uYesu bhenzele, eshi timanyaje huje nsiku zya humalishilo.
My children, it is the latter time; and as ye have heard that a false Messiah was to arise, so there are now many false Messiahs; and from this we know that it is the latter time.
19 Bhasoguye hulite, ebho seebhali bhahulite, bhagali bhahulite handa bhakheye natete, lelo bhasogoye hulite aje bhabhoneshe huje se bhonti bhabhali bhahulite.
From us they went out, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but they went out from us, that so it might be known, that they were not of us.
20 Lelo mupahiye amafuta nuulaufinjile namwe mzimenye enzyelyoli.
But ye have an unction from the Holy One; and ye discriminate every person.
21 Siga embasimbiye huje se muzimenye ezyelyolie embasimbiye aja muzimenye nantele nalimo ilenga lya lyonti umwo.
I have not written to you, because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and because no falsehood is of the truth.
22 Wenu uwilenga yayula yahukhana u Yesu, aje uYesu yu Kiristi? Uyahukhana uYesu yayula yaiga numo udaada nu mwana.
Who is false, but he that denieth that Jesus is the Messiah? And that person is a false Messiah. He that denieth the Father, denieth also the Son.
23 Numo umuntu yahukhawa Umwana aiga ane endi nu Dada. Yayonti yahumwe teha Umwana ali nu Daada.
And he that denieth the Son, also believeth not the Father. He that confesseth the Son, confesseth also the Father.
24 Nkahali kwa ajili yenyu, hala hamwahumvizye afume hali heshi hakhalaje hwa hulimwe. Weshi haala hamwahumvwizye ahwande hele habhakale wila mulimwe namwe mubhakhale muhanji mwa Mwana nu Daada.
And what ye heard from the first, let that remain with you. For if that, which ye heard from the first, remaineth with you, ye also will remain in the Father and in the Son.
And this is the promise, which he hath promised us, even life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
26 Embandishiye ezi aje mubhamanye bhala bhabhahanzaga abhalongozye humbibhi.
And these things I have written to you, on account of those who seduce you.
27 Na hushauli yenyu gaala amafuta gamwagambeleye afume hwa mwene gakhala muhati mulimwe, na semuhwanza umuntu aje abhamanyizye. Amafuta gakwe gabhamanyizya zyoti ne zye lyoli na bila lilenga lyalyonti nkashele gabhamanyizizye khalaji muhati yakwe.
And ye also, if the unction which ye have received from him remaineth in you, need not that any one should teach you; but as that unction is from God, it teacheth you all things; and it is true, and no falsehood is in it. And as it hath taught you, remain ye in him.
28 Amwe bhaana bhihane khali muhati yakwe nkashele naihwenza tahabhe na madandi na siyo aihumve ensoni nayenza umwene.
And now, my children, remain ye in him; that so, when he shall be manifested, we may not be ashamed before him, but may have an open countenance at his coming.
29 Nkamumenye huje umwene lyoli, mumenye lyoli huje kila muntu abhewe lyoli na huje umuntu apepwe nu mwene.
If ye know that he is righteous, ye also know, that whoever doeth righteousness, is from him.
