1 Yohana 2
1 Watoto wangu wapendwa, nawaandikia mambo haya kwenu ili msitende dhambi. Lakini kama mmoja wenu akitenda dhambi, tunaye wakili aliye pamoja na Baba, Yesu Kristo- ambaye ni mwenye haki.
Τεκνία μου, ταῦτα γράφω ὑμῖν ἵνα μὴ ἁμάρτητε. καὶ ἐάν τις ἁμάρτῃ, παράκλητον ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν πατέρα, Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν δίκαιον·
2 Yeye ni mpatanishi kwa dhambi zetu, na si kwa dhambi zetu pekee, lakini pia kwa ulimwengu mzima.
καὶ αὐτὸς ἱλασμός ἐστιν περὶ τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ἡμῶν, οὐ περὶ τῶν ἡμετέρων δὲ μόνον ἀλλὰ καὶ περὶ ὅλου τοῦ κόσμου.
3 Kwa hili twajua kwamba twamjua yeye, kama tukizitunza amri zake.
καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐγνώκαμεν αὐτόν, ἐὰν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηρῶμεν.
4 Yeye asemaye, “Namjua Mungu,” lakini hazishiki amri zake, ni mwongo, na kweli haimo ndani yake.
ὁ λέγων ὅτι ἔγνωκα αὐτόν, καὶ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ μὴ τηρῶν, ψεύστης ἐστίν, καὶ ἐν τούτῳ ἡ ἀλήθεια οὐκ ἔστιν·
5 Lakini yeyote ashikaye neno lake, kweli katika mtu yule upendo wa Mungu umekamilishwa. Katika hili twajua kwamba tuko ndani yake.
ὃς δ’ ἂν τηρῇ αὐτοῦ τὸν λόγον, ἀληθῶς ἐν τούτῳ ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ τετελείωται. ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐν αὐτῷ ἐσμεν·
6 Yeye asemaye anaishi ndani ya Mungu anapaswa mwenyewe pia kuenenda kama vile Yesu Kristo alivyoenenda.
ὁ λέγων ἐν αὐτῷ μένειν ὀφείλει καθὼς ἐκεῖνος περιεπάτησεν καὶ αὐτὸς οὕτως περιπατεῖν.
7 Wapenzi, siwaandikii ninyi amri mpya, bali amri ya zamani ambayo mmekwisha kuwa nayo tangu mwanzo. Amri ya zamani ni neno ambalo mlilolisikia.
Ἀγαπητοί, οὐκ ἐντολὴν καινὴν γράφω ὑμῖν, ἀλλ’ ἐντολὴν παλαιὰν ἣν εἴχετε ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς· ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ παλαιά ἐστιν ὁ λόγος ὃν ἠκούσατε.
8 Hata hivyo ninawaandikia ninyi amri mpya, ambayo ni kweli katika Kristo na kwenu, kwa sababu giza linapita, na nuru ya kweli iko tayari inaangaza
πάλιν ἐντολὴν καινὴν γράφω ὑμῖν, ὅ ἐστιν ἀληθὲς ἐν αὐτῷ καὶ ἐν ὑμῖν, ὅτι ἡ σκοτία παράγεται καὶ τὸ φῶς τὸ ἀληθινὸν ἤδη φαίνει.
9 Yeye asemeye yuko kwenye nuru na amchukia ndugu yake yuko katika giza hata sasa.
ὁ λέγων ἐν τῷ φωτὶ εἶναι καὶ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ μισῶν ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ ἐστὶν ἕως ἄρτι.
10 Yeye ampendaye ndugu yake anaishi katika nuru na hakuna jambo lolote liwezalo kumkwaza.
ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ φωτὶ μένει, καὶ σκάνδαλον οὐκ ἔστιν ἐν αὐτῷ·
11 Lakini yeye amchukiaye ndugu yake yuko gizani na anatembea gizani; Yeye hajui wapi aendako, kwa sababu giza limeyapofusha macho yake.
ὁ δὲ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ ἐστὶν καὶ ἐν τῇ σκοτίᾳ περιπατεῖ, καὶ οὐκ οἶδεν ποῦ ὑπάγει, ὅτι ἡ σκοτία ἐτύφλωσεν τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ.
12 Nawaandikia ninyi, watoto wapendwa, kwa sababu mmesamehewa dhambi zenu kwa ajili ya jina lake.
Γράφω ὑμῖν, τεκνία, ὅτι ἀφέωνται ὑμῖν αἱ ἁμαρτίαι διὰ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ.
13 Nawaandikia ninyi, akina baba, kwa sababu mnamjua yeye aliye tangu mwanzo. Nawaandikia ninyi, vijana, kwa sababu mmemshinda yule mwovu. Nimewaandikia ninyi, watoto wadogo, kwa sababu mnamjua Baba.
γράφω ὑμῖν, πατέρες, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς. γράφω ὑμῖν, νεανίσκοι, ὅτι νενικήκατε τὸν πονηρόν. ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, παιδία, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν πατέρα.
14 Nimewaandikia ninyi, akina baba, kwa sababu mnamjua yeye aliye tangu mwanzo. Nimewaandikia ninyi, vijana, kwa sababu mko imara, na neno la Mungu linakaa ndani yenu, na mmemshinda yule mwovu.
ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, πατέρες, ὅτι ἐγνώκατε τὸν ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς. ἔγραψα ὑμῖν, νεανίσκοι, ὅτι ἰσχυροί ἐστε καὶ ὁ λόγος τοῦ θεοῦ ἐν ὑμῖν μένει καὶ νενικήκατε τὸν πονηρόν.
15 Msiipende dunia wala mambo ambayo yaliyo katika dunia. Iwapo yule ataipenda dunia, upendo wa kumpenda Baba haumo ndani yake.
μὴ ἀγαπᾶτε τὸν κόσμον μηδὲ τὰ ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ. ἐάν τις ἀγαπᾷ τὸν κόσμον, οὐκ ἔστιν ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ πατρὸς ἐν αὐτῷ·
16 Kwani kila kitu kilichomo katika dunia- tamaa ya mwili, tamaa ya macho, na kiburi cha uzima- havitokani na Baba lakini vinatokana na dunia.
ὅτι πᾶν τὸ ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ, ἡ ἐπιθυμία τῆς σαρκὸς καὶ ἡ ἐπιθυμία τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν καὶ ἡ ἀλαζονία τοῦ βίου, οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς ἀλλ’ ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου ἐστίν.
καὶ ὁ κόσμος παράγεται καὶ ἡ ἐπιθυμία αὐτοῦ, ὁ δὲ ποιῶν τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. (aiōn g165)
18 Watoto wadogo, ni wakati wa mwisho. Kama ambavyo mmesikia kwamba mpinga kristo anakuja, hata sasa wapinga kristo wamekuja, kwa hali hii tunajua kwamba ni wakati wa mwisho.
Παιδία, ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστίν, καὶ καθὼς ἠκούσατε ὅτι ἀντίχριστος ἔρχεται, καὶ νῦν ἀντίχριστοι πολλοὶ γεγόνασιν· ὅθεν γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἐσχάτη ὥρα ἐστίν.
19 Walikwenda zao kutoka kwetu, kwani hawakuwa wa kwetu. Kama vile wangekuwa wa kwetu wangeendelea kuwa pamoja nasi. Lakini wakati walipo kwenda zao, hicho kilionyesha hawakuwa wa kwetu.
ἐξ ἡμῶν ἐξῆλθαν, ἀλλ’ οὐκ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν· εἰ γὰρ ἦσαν ἐξ ἡμῶν, μεμενήκεισαν ἂν μεθ’ ἡμῶν· ἀλλ’ ἵνα φανερωθῶσιν ὅτι οὐκ εἰσὶν πάντες ἐξ ἡμῶν.
20 Lakini mumetiwa mafuta na yule Mtakatifu, nanyi nyote mnaijua kweli.
καὶ ὑμεῖς χρῖσμα ἔχετε ἀπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου, καὶ οἴδατε πάντες.
21 Sikuwaandikia ninyi kwa sababu hamuijui kweli, bali kwa sababu mnaijua na kwa sababu hakuna uongo wa ile kweli
οὐκ ἔγραψα ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε τὴν ἀλήθειαν, ἀλλ’ ὅτι οἴδατε αὐτήν, καὶ ὅτι πᾶν ψεῦδος ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας οὐκ ἔστιν.
22 Nani ni mwongo bali ni yeye anayepinga kwamba Yesu ni Kristo? Huyu mtu ni mpinga kristo, pale anapo mpinga Baba na Mwana.
τίς ἐστιν ὁ ψεύστης εἰ μὴ ὁ ἀρνούμενος ὅτι Ἰησοῦς οὐκ ἔστιν ὁ Χριστός; οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ ἀντίχριστος, ὁ ἀρνούμενος τὸν πατέρα καὶ τὸν υἱόν.
23 Hakuna anaye mpinga Mwana akawa na Baba. Yeyote anaye mkiri Mwana anaye Baba pia.
πᾶς ὁ ἀρνούμενος τὸν υἱὸν οὐδὲ τὸν πατέρα ἔχει· ὁ ὁμολογῶν τὸν υἱὸν καὶ τὸν πατέρα ἔχει.
24 Kama kwa ajili yenu, kile mlichosikia toka mwanzo acha kiendelee kuwa ndani yenu. Kama kile mlichosikia toka mwanzo kitakaa ndani yenu, pia, mtakaa ndani ya Mwana na Baba.
ὑμεῖς ὃ ἠκούσατε ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἐν ὑμῖν μενέτω· ἐὰν ἐν ὑμῖν μείνῃ ὃ ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ἠκούσατε, καὶ ὑμεῖς ἐν τῷ υἱῷ καὶ ἐν τῷ πατρὶ μενεῖτε.
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐπαγγελία ἣν αὐτὸς ἐπηγγείλατο ἡμῖν, τὴν ζωὴν τὴν αἰώνιον. (aiōnios g166)
26 Nimewaandikia haya ninyi kuhusu wale ambao wangewaongoza ninyi katika upotevu.
Ταῦτα ἔγραψα ὑμῖν περὶ τῶν πλανώντων ὑμᾶς.
27 Na kwa ajili yenu, yale mafuta mliyoyapokea kutoka kwake yanakaa ndani yenu, na hamtahitaji mtu yeyote kuwafundisha. bali kama mafuta yake yanawafundisha kuhusu mambo yote na ni kweli na siyo uongo, na hata kama yameshawafundisha, kaeni ndani yake.
καὶ ὑμεῖς τὸ χρῖσμα ὃ ἐλάβετε ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ μένει ἐν ὑμῖν, καὶ οὐ χρείαν ἔχετε ἵνα τις διδάσκῃ ὑμᾶς· ἀλλ’ ὡς τὸ αὐτοῦ χρῖσμα διδάσκει ὑμᾶς περὶ πάντων, καὶ ἀληθές ἐστιν καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ψεῦδος, καὶ καθὼς ἐδίδαξεν ὑμᾶς, μένετε ἐν αὐτῷ.
28 Na sasa, watoto wapendwa, kaeni ndani yake, ili wakati atakapotokea, tuweze kuwa na ujasiri na siyo kujisikia aibu mbele yake katika kuja kwake.
Καὶ νῦν, τεκνία, μένετε ἐν αὐτῷ, ἵνα ἐὰν φανερωθῇ σχῶμεν παρρησίαν καὶ μὴ αἰσχυνθῶμεν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ παρουσίᾳ αὐτοῦ.
29 Kama mnajua kuwa yeye ni mwenye haki, mnajua kwamba kila mmoja atendaye haki amezaliwa na yeye.
ἐὰν εἰδῆτε ὅτι δίκαιός ἐστιν, γινώσκετε ὅτι καὶ πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν δικαιοσύνην ἐξ αὐτοῦ γεγέννηται.
