1 Yohana 3
1 Lolagha lughano luki u Nhaata atupelile, kuuti tutambulua vaanha va Nguluve, neke anala pene tulivuo. ulwakuva iisi iji najitukagwile kuutikuuti navakagwile umwene.
Behold, what manner of love (agape) the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
2 Vaghanike usue lino tulivaanha va Nguluve, najikagulike vunono ndavule tuliiva. Tukagula kuuti ukilisite iliva ivoneka, tuluhwanana nu mwene, ulwakuva tukumwagha vule alivuo.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 Umuunhu ghweni juno alinuvukangali uvu vwimila unsiki ghuno ghu kwisa gunoghwolesivue kwa mwene, ivalasiagha jujuo ndavule umwene, umwitike vule alivuo.
And every man that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
4 Umuunhu ghweni juno ivomba uvuhosi idenya indaghilo. Ulwakuva uvuhosi kwe kudenya indaghilo.
Whosoever commits sin trangresses also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
5 Mukagwile kuuti u Kilisite alisile kuvusiakuvusia uvuhosi vwiitu. na mun'kate mwa mwene musila vuhosi.
And all of you know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6 Nakwale nambe jumo juno alimuvukalo uvwamwene uvwa kuvusila na kusila mun'kate mwa mwene nakujigha kuvomba uvuhosi. Kange nakwale nambe muunhu jumbo juno ikukala muhosi pene avwaghile kange kukagula umwene.
Whosoever abides in him sins not: whosoever sins has not seen him, neither known him.
7 Vaanha vaghanike, namulitikagha umunhu ghwe ghwoni jula avasyangaghe. Juno ivomba uvugholofu ujuo ghwe mugholofu, ndavule u Kilisite vule alivuo nuvugholofu.
Little children, let no man deceive you: he that does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 Juno ivomba uvuhosi ujuo ghwa setano, ulwakuva usetano ivomba uvuhosi kuhuma Katali ulwakuva umwaana ghwa NguluveNguluve jilyakagulike kuuti isile kunangania imbombo isa setano
He that commits sin is of the devil; for the devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Ghwe ghwoni julajula juno aholilue nu Nguluve naivomba uvuhosi, ulwakuva ingufu isa Nguluve sikukala mun'kate mwa mwene. Kange nangaghendelele kuvomba uvuhosi ulwakuva aholilue nu Nguluve.
Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 Mhu iili Vaana va Nguluve na vaanavaana va setano vikagulika, ghwe ghwoni juno naivomba kino kilimuvugholofu, naghwe Nguluve, nambe juno namughanile unyalukolo ghwa mwene.
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever does not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loves not his brother.
11 Neke iji jemola jino mulyapulike kuhumakuhuma kuvutengulilo, kuuti jivaghile kughanana usue jusue,
For this is the message that all of you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
12 tulekaghe kuuva ndavule u Kaini juno alyale mhosi alyam'budile unyalukolo ghwa mwene. Nakiki alya m'budile? Ulwakuva imbombo samwene silyale sa vuhosi, na ghala agha nyalukolo ghwa mwene ghalyale muvugholofu.
Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
13 Vanyalukolo vango, namungadeghaghe, iisi pano jikuvakalalilia.
Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
14 Tukagwile kuuti tuhumile mu vufue na kukwingila mu vwumi vwa kuvusila kusila, ulwakuva tuvaghanile avanyalukolo. Ghwe ghwoni jula juno alivuvule ulughano ajighe mu vufue.
We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loves not his brother abides in death.
15 Umuunhu ghwe ghwoni jula juno ikun'kalalila unyalukolo ghwa mwene m'budi. Mukagwile kuuti uvwumi uvwa kuvusila na kusila navukukala mun'kate mwa m'budi. (aiōnios g166)
Whosoever hates his brother is a murderer: and all of you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
16 Mhu ili tukagwile ulughano, ulwakuva u Kilisite alyahumisie uvwumi vwa mwene mu vwimila vwitu. Najusue jitunoghile kuhumia uvwumi vwitu mu vwimila muvanyalukolo.
Hereby perceive we the love (agape) of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 Looli ghwe ghwoni Julia juno alinifiinu, kange ikumwagha unyalukolo ghwa mwene juno akunilue, ikughusigha umwoojo ghwa mwene ughwa lusungu mu vwimila vwa mwene; asi, ulughano lwa Nguluve lukukala mwa mwene?
But whoso has this world's good, and sees his brother have need, and shuts up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwells the love (agape) of God in him?
18 Mwe vaanha vaango mwevaghanike, tulekaghe kukughana na malomo ghitu kange na masio vuvule looli tuvaghanaghe muvwa kyang'haani.
My little children, let us not love in word, (logos) neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
19 Mhu iili tukagwile kuuti usue tulimuvwakyang'haani, na moojo ghiitu ghitengaana pa mwene.
And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
20 Ndavule amoojo ghiitu ghihighua, u Nguluve ghwe m'baha kukila amoojo ghiitu, kange umwene asikagwile sooni.
For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Vaghanike, nambe amoojo ghiitu naghighinua, pe tuuva vasila vwoghofi Kwan Nguluve.
Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.
22 Kange sooni sino tukunsuma tulikwupila kuhuma kwa mwene, ulwakuva tugadilila indaghilo sake nana kuvomba sino ikeela pavulongolo pa mwene
And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
23 Ulu lwe lulaghilo lwa mwene- ulwakuuti jinoghile kukumwitika mu litavua lya mwanaake u Yesu Kilisite nakughanana jusue ndavule atupelile indaghilo ja mwene.
And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
24 Juno igadilila indaghilo sa mweene ikukala n'kate mwa mwene naju Nguluve ikukala n'kate mwa mwene. Ulwakuva tukagwile kuuti ikukala n'kate mulyusue, vwimila uMhepo juno atupelile.
And he that keeps his commandments dwells in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit (pneuma) which he has given us.
