1 Sione 2

1 ‌ʻA ʻeku fānau ʻofeina, ʻoku ou tohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate kimoutolu, ke ʻoua naʻa mou angahala. Pea kapau ʻe angahala ha taha, ʻoku ai hotau fakalelei ki he Tamai, ko Sisu Kalaisi ko e māʻoniʻoni

My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Yahushua the Messiah the righteous.

2 Pea ko e feilaulau totongi ia ʻi heʻetau ngaahi angahala: pea ʻikai ʻatautolu pe, ka koeʻuhi ko māmani kotoa pē.

And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

3 Pea ko eni ʻoku tau ʻilo ai ʻoku tau ʻilo ia, ʻo kapau ʻoku tau fai ʻene ngaahi fekau.

Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.

4 Ko ia ʻoku ne pehē, ʻOku ou ʻilo ia, ka ʻoku ʻikai fai ʻene ngaahi fekau, ko e loi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate ia ʻae moʻoni.

He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

5 Ka ko ia ʻoku ne fai ki heʻene folofola, kuo fakahaohaoa moʻoni ʻiate ia ʻae ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua: ko eni ia ʻoku tau ʻilo ai ʻoku tau ʻiate ia.

But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of YHWH is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.

6 Ko ia ia ʻoku ne pehē, ʻoku nofo ia kiate ia, ʻoku totonu ke ne ʻeveʻeva foki ʻo hangē ko ʻene ʻeveʻeva ʻaʻana.

He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.

7 ‌ʻE kāinga, ʻoku ʻikai te u tohi ha fekau foʻou kiate kimoutolu, ka ko e fekau motuʻa, naʻa mou maʻu mei he kamataʻanga. Ko e fekau motuʻa ko e folofola ia, ʻaia kuo mou ongoʻi mei he kamataʻanga.

Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

8 Ko eni foki, ʻoku ou tohi ʻae fekau foʻou kiate kimoutolu, ʻae meʻa ko ia ʻoku moʻoni kiate ia mo kimoutolu: he kuo mole atu ʻae fakapoʻuli, pea ʻoku ulo ni ʻae maama moʻoni.

Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.

9 Ko ia ʻoku ne pehē, ʻoku ʻi he maama ia, ka ʻoku fehiʻa ki hono tokoua, ʻoku kei ʻi he poʻuli ia.

He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

10 Ko ia ʻoku ʻofa ki hono tokoua, ʻoku nofo ia ʻi he maama, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate ia ha tūkiaʻanga.

He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

11 Ka ko ia ʻoku fehiʻa ki hono tokoua, ʻoku ʻi he poʻuli ia, pea ʻoku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he poʻuli, ʻo ʻikai ʻilo pe ʻoku ne ʻalu ki fē, he kuo fakakui hono mata ʻe he poʻuli.

But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

12 ‌ʻOku ou tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae fānau ʻofeina, koeʻuhi kuo fakamolemolea hoʻomou angahala koeʻuhi ko hono huafa.

I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.

13 ‌ʻOku ou tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi kuo mou ʻiloʻi ia ʻoku mei he kamataʻanga. ʻOku ou tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae kau talavou, koeʻuhi kuo mou ikuna ʻae tokotaha angakovi. ʻOku ou tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae fānau siʻi, koeʻuhi kuo mou ʻiloʻi ʻae Tamai.

I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.

14 Kuo u tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae ngaahi tamai, koeʻuhi kuo mou ʻiloʻi ia ʻoku mei he kamataʻanga. Kuo u tohi kiate kimoutolu, ʻae kau talavou, koeʻuhi ʻoku mou mālohi, pea ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he folofola ʻae ʻOtua, pea kuo mou ikuʻi ʻae tokotaha angakovi.

I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of YHWH abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.

15 ‌ʻOua naʻa ʻofa ki māmani, pe ki he ngaahi meʻa ʻi he māmani. Kapau ʻoku ʻofa ha taha ki māmani, ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate ia ʻae ʻofa ʻae Tamai.

Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 He ko e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi he māmani, ko e holi ʻoe kakano, pea mo e holi ʻoe mata, mo e laukau ʻoe moʻui, ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe Tamai, ka ʻoku ʻoe māmani ia.

For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world.

17 Pea ʻoku mole ange ʻa māmani, pea mo e holi ʻo ia: ka ko ia ʻoku ne fai ʻae finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoku nofomaʻu ia ʻo taʻengata. (aiōn g165)

And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of YHWH abides forever. (aiōn g165)

18 ‌ʻAe fānau siʻi, ko e kuonga fakamui eni: pea hangē ko hoʻomou fanongo ʻe haʻu ʻae Fili ʻo Kalaisi, ʻoku ai ni ʻae ngaahi fili tokolahi ʻo Kalaisi: ko ia ʻoku tau ʻilo ai ko e kuonga fakamui eni,

Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the AntiMessiah is coming, even now many antiMessiahs have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.

19 Naʻa nau ʻalu atu meiate kitautolu, ka naʻe ʻikai ke nau ʻotautolu; he ka ne ʻotautolu ʻakinautolu, pehē, kuo nau nofomaʻu mo kitautolu: ka ko e meʻa ia, ke hā ai naʻe ʻikai ʻotautolu ʻakinautolu kotoa pē.

They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

20 Ka kuo mou maʻu ʻae pani mei he tokotaha māʻoniʻoni, pea ʻoku mou ʻiloʻi ʻae meʻa kotoa pē.

But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

21 Kuo ʻikai te u tohi kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻiloʻi ʻae moʻoni, ka koeʻuhi ʻoku mou ʻiloʻi ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha loi ʻe tupu ʻi he moʻoni.

I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.

22 Ko hai ia ʻoku loi, ka ko ia ʻoku ne fakafisinga ʻoku ʻikai ko e Kalaisi ʻa Sisu? Ko e fili ʻo Kalaisi ia, ʻaia ʻoku ne fakafisinga ʻi he Tamai mo e ʻAlo.

Who is a liar but he who denies that Yahushua is the Messiah? He is antiMessiah who denies the Father and the Son.

23 Ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ne fakafisinga ʻi he ʻAlo ʻoku ʻikai ʻiate ia ʻae Tamai.

Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

24 Ko ia, tuku ke nofomaʻu ʻiate kimoutolu ʻaia kuo mou fanongo mei he kamataʻanga. Kapau ʻe nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he meʻa kuo mou ongoʻi mei he kamataʻanga, pehē ʻe nofomaʻu foki ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ʻAlo, pea mo e Tamai.

Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.

25 Pea ko eni ʻae talaʻofa, ʻaia kuo ne talaʻofa ai kiate kitautolu, ko e moʻui taʻengata. (aiōnios g166)

And this is the promise that He has promised us--eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

26 Ko e ngaahi meʻa eni kuo u tohi kiate kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ko kinautolu ʻoku kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu.

These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.

27 Ka ʻoku nofoʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻe he pani ʻoku mou maʻu meiate ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻaonga ke akonakiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe ha taha: kae hangē ʻoku akonakiʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe he pani ko ia ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, pea ʻoku moʻoni ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai ko e loi, ʻio, ʻo hangē ko ʻene akonekina ʻakimoutolu, ke mou nofo pehē kiate ia.

But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

28 Pea ko eni, ʻe fānau ʻofeina, mou nofo pe kiate ia; koeʻuhi, ʻoka hā mai ia, ketau maʻu ai ʻae mālohi, pea ʻikai mā ʻi hono ʻao, ʻi heʻene hāʻele mai.

And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

29 Kapau ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻoku māʻoniʻoni ia, ʻoku mou ʻilo foki, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku ne fai māʻoniʻoni, kuo fanauʻi ia ʻiate ia.

If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.
