1 John 2
1 Bana bama, ndilusonikini mambu mama muingi lubika sumuka; ayi enati mutu wuvola masumu buna tubeki phovi yikutuvovilanga kuidi Tata: Yesu Klisto, mutu wusonga.
My little children, I write these things unto you, that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
2 Niandi wukiyekula banga dikaba mu diambu di masumu meto ayi bika sia ti mu diambu di masumu meto kaka vayi ayi mu diambu di momo ma nza yimvimba.
And He is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
3 Mu diambu diadi tuzabidi ti beto tunzebi: enati beto tunkebanga zithumunu ziandi.
And by this we know that we have known Him, if we keep his commandments.
4 Woso mutu wuntuba: “minu ndinzebi” mu kambu keba zithumunu ziandi; buna widi nkua luvunu ayi kiedika kisi ko mu niandi.
He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 Vayi woso mutu wunkebanga mambu mandi buna bukiedika luzolo lu Nzambi luidi lufuana mu mutu wowo; Mu diambu diodi tuzabidi ti tuidi mu niandi.
But whosoever keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: and by this we know that we are in Him.
6 Woso mutu wuntuba ti widi mu niandi buna mamvandi kafueti diatilaboso niandi veka kadiatila.
He that saith, he abideth in Him, ought himself also so to walk even as He walked.
7 Bakiluzolo, bika sia ti lutumunu lumona ndilusonikina vayi lutumunu beni lu thama kuandi, lolo lutambula tona vana thonono. Lutumunulu thama beni luawu lualu mambu ma Nzambi momo luwa.
Brethren, I write not a new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning: the old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning:
8 Buela diaka, lutumunu lumona ndilusonikini: luidi lukiedika mu niandiayi mu beno bila tombi kilembo lalakana ayi kiezila ki kiedika kilembo kienzuka.
though I write it again as a new commandment, which is truth in Him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
9 Woso mutu wuntuba ti widi mu kiezila vayi wunlenda khombꞌandibuna nate buabu wukidi kuandi mu tombi.
Now he that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is still in darkness:
10 Woso mutu weti zola khombꞌandi buna widi mu kiezila ayi diluaku di buila dilendi monika mu niandi ko.
whereas, he that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and is in no danger of stumbling.
11 Vayi woso mutu wunlenda khombꞌandi buna widi mu tombi ayi wundiatilangamu tombi, kasi zaba ko kuevi kalembo yendi bila tombi kivondidi meso mandi.
But he, that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not where he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
12 Ndikulusonikina, beno bana, mu diambu di masumu meno malemvokolo mu dizina di Yesu.
I write unto you, little children, because for his sake your sins are forgiven you:
13 Ndikulusonikina beno madise, mu diambu di luzebi mutu wowo widitona vana thonono. Ndikulusonikina, beno baleki mu diambu di lunungini pheveyimbimbi. Ndikulusonikina, beno bana, mu diambu di beno luzebi Tata.
I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known Him that is from the beginning: and I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. Yea I have written to you, little children, because ye have known the Father:
14 Ndikulusonikina, beno madise, mu diambu di beno luzebi mutu widi tonavana thonono. Ndikulusonikina, beno baleki mu diambu di beno ngolo luidi ayi mu diambu di mambu ma Nzambi madi mu beno ayi mu diambu di beno lunungini pheve yimbimbi.
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known Him that is from the beginning: and I have written to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one---
15 Lubika zola nza ayi bima bidi va nza. Enati mutu weti zola nza buna luzolo lu Tata luisi ko mu niandi
Love not the world, nor the things that are in the world; for if any one love the world to excess, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 bila bibio bidi va nza: zinzinunu zi nsuni, zinzinunu zi mesoayi luniemo lu luzingu bisi bi Tata ko vayi bi nza.
For all that is in the world, the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but of the world.
17 Muaki nza yilembo vioki ayi zinzinunu ziandi; vayi woso mutu wumvanganga luzolo lu Nzambi widi moyo mu zithangu zioso. (aiōn g165)
And the world passeth away, and the desire of it: but he, that doth the will of God, abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
18 Bana bama, yawu yayi thangu yi tsuka. Banga kuandi bu luwati antiklisto wulembo yizi, ayi, buabu bantiklisto beka bawombo. Mu diambu diodi tuzabidi ti yawu yayi thangu yi tsuka.
Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that an antichrist will come, there are even now many antichrists, whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 Bawu batotukila mu beto vayi basia ba batu beto ko; Bila enati baba batu beto, nganu badi yeto. Vayi bayenda mu diambu bamonika ti kadi wumosi mu bawu kasia ba weto ko.
They went out from us, but they were not of us: for if they had been indeed of us, they would have continued with us; but this was done that they might be made manifest, because all, that are with us, are not indeed of us.
20 Beno lutambula pheve Yinlongo kuidi mutu wunlongo ayi beno boso luzebi kiedika.
And ye have an unction from the holy One, and know all.
21 Ndikadi kulusonikina, bika sia ti mu diambu lusia zaba kiedika ko, vayi mu diambu luzebi kiawu ayi kiedika kilendi totula ko kadi luvunu.
I have not therefore written to you, because ye know not the truth; but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Nani nkua luvunu e? A keti woso mutu wuntunukanga ti Yesu kasi Klisto ko. Niandi antiklisto bila niandi weti tunuka Tata ayi muana.
Who is a liar, if not he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, that denieth the Father as well as the Son;
23 Woso mutu wuntunukanga muana kasi zaba Tata ko; woso mutu wunkikininanga Muana buna zebi Tata.
for whosoever denieth the Son, hath not the Father: but he that confesseth the Son acknowledgeth the Father also.
24 Mu diambu dieno, bika momo luwa tona vana thonono maba mu beno. Enati momo luwa tona vana thonono madi mu beno buna beno mamveno luidimu Muana ayi mu Tata.
Let that therefore, which ye have heard from the beginning, abide in you: for if that, which ye heard from the beginning, remain in you, ye also will remain in the Son and in the Father.
And this is the promise which He hath promised us, even eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Ndilusonikini mambu mama mu diambu di batu bobo bantomba kuluzimbisa.
These things have I written unto you concerning those who would seduce you.
27 Vayi mu diambu dieno, Pheve yinlongo yoyi ludukudulu banga mafuta, mu beno. Luisi kadi mfunu ko ti mutu kalulonga. Vayi bu didi ti Pheve beni Yinlongo yawu yeti ku lulonga mu diambu di mambu moso ayi yawu yidi yi kiedika, yisi yi luvunu ko; buna bika luba mu kithuadi ayi Klisto boso bu yi lulongila mawu.
But the unction, which ye have received from Him, abideth in you; and therefore ye have no need that any should teach you: since this very unction teacheth you concerning all things, and is truth and not falshood; even as that hath taught you, abide in Him.
28 Ayi buabu beno bana, bika luba mu niandi mu diambu mu thangu kela monika, tuba bakinda ayi tubika fua tsoni va ntualꞌandi bu kela kuiza.
And now, little children, abide, I say, in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and may not be ashamed before Him at his coming.
29 Enati luzebi ti Klisto widi wusonga buna bika luzaba ti woso mutu wunsadilanga busonga buna niandi wubutu kuidi Klisto.
If ye know that He is righteous, ye know that every one, who practiseth righteousness, is born of Him.
