1 Joan 4
1 Maiteác, spiritu gucia ezteçaçuela sinhets, baina phorogaitzaçue spirituac eya Iaincoaganic diradenez: ecen anhitz propheta falsu ethorri içan dirade mundura.
Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 Hunetan eçagut eçaçue Iaincoaren Spiritua. Iesus Christ haraguitara ethorri dela confessatzen duen spiritu gucia, Iaincoaganic da.
By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,
3 Eta cein-ere spirituc ezpaitu confessatzen Iesus Christ haraguitara ethorri içan dela hura ezta Iaincoaganic: eta halaco spiritua Antechristena da, ceinez minçatzen ençun vkan baituçue, ecen ethorteco dela, eta ia orain munduan da.
and every spirit who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God; and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world already.
4 Haourtoác, çuec Iaincoaganic çarete, eta garaithu çaizte hæy: ecen handiago da çuetan dena, ecen ez munduan dena.
You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.
5 Hec mundutic dirade, halacotz munduaz minço dirade, eta mundua hæy behatzen çaye.
They are of the world. Therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.
6 Gu Iaincoaganic gara: Iaincoa eçagutzen duena, guri behatzen çaicu: Iaincoaganic eztena guri etzaicu behatzen: hunetan eçagutzen dugu eguiazco Spiritua, eta errorezco spiritua.
We are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God doesn’t listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Maiteác, elkarri on eritzi dieçogun: ecen charitatea Iaincoaganic da: eta norc-ere onhesten baitu, hura Iaincoagaoic iayo da, eta eçagutzen du Iaincoa.
Beloved, let’s love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
8 Onhesten eztuenac, eztu eçagutzen Iaincoa: ecen Iaincoa charitate da.
He who doesn’t love doesn’t know God, for God is love.
9 Hunetan manifestatu içan da Iaincoaren gureganaco charitatea, ceren bere Seme bakoitza igorri vkan baitu Iaincoac mundura, harçaz vici garençát.
By this God’s love was revealed in us, that God has sent his only born Son into the world that we might live through him.
10 Hunetan da charitatea, ez ceren guc onhetsi dugun Iaincoa, baina ceren harc onhetsi baiquaitu gu, eta igorri vkan baitu bere Semea gure bekatuacgatic appoinctamendu licençát.
In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
11 Maiteac, baldin hunela Iaincoac onhetsi baiquaitu, guc-ere behar dugu elkar onhetsi.
Beloved, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.
12 Iaincoa eztu nehorc ikussi egundano: baldin elkar maite badugu Iaincoa gutan dago, eta haren charitatea complitu da gutan.
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.
13 Hunetan eçagutzen dugu ecen hartan egoiten garela, eta hura gutan, ceren bere Spiritutic eman baitraucu.
By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.
14 Eta guc ikussi vkan dugu, eta testificatzen dugu ecen Aitác igorri vkan duela Semea munduaren Saluadore içateco.
We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Saviour of the world.
15 Norc-ere confessaturen baitu ecen Iesus dela Iaincoaren Semea, Iaincoa hura baithan dago, eta hura Iaincoa baithan.
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, and he in God.
16 Eta guc eçagutu eta sinhetsi dugu Iaincoac guregana duen charitatea. Iaincoa charitate da: eta charitatean egoiten dena, Iainco baithan egoiten da, eta Iaincoa hura baithan.
We know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him.
17 Huneçaz complitu içan da charitatea guregana, iudicioco egunean segurança dugunçát, ceren hura den beçalaco baicara gu-ere mundu hunetan.
In this, love has been made perfect amongst us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgement, because as he is, even so we are in this world.
18 Beldurric ezta charitatean: aitzitic charitate perfectoac campora egoizten du beldurra: ecen beldurrac tormenta du: eta beldur dena ezta complitua charitatean.
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
19 Guc hari on daritzagu, ceren harc lehenic onhetsi baiquaitu gu.
We love him, because he first loved us.
20 Baldin nehorc erran badeça, Maite dut Iaincoa: eta bere anayeari gaitz badaritza: gueçurti da: ecen bere anaye dacussana maite eztuenac, ikusten eztuen Iaincoa nola maite ahal duque?
If a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
21 Eta manamendu haur dugu harenganic, Iaincoa maite duenac, maite duen bere anayea-ere.
This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
