1 John 3
1 See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world does not know us, because it did not know him.
Ikussaçue nolaco charitatea guri eman draucun Aitac, baita, Iaincoaren haur deitha gaitecen: halacotz munduac ezgaitu eçagutzen, ceren ezpaitu hura eçagutzen.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
Maiteác, orain Iaincoaren haour gara, baina oraino ezta aguertu içanen garena: badaquigu ordea ecen hura aguer dadinean, hura irudico dugula: ecen den beçala ikussiren duquegu hura.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Eta norc-ere sperança haur baitu hura baithan, purificatzen du bere buruä, hura-ere pur den beçala.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Norc-ere bekatu eguiten baitu, Leguearen contra-ere eguiten du: eta bekatua da Leguearen contra dena.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
Eta badaquiçue ecen hura aguertu içan dela gure bekatuac ken litzançát, eta bekaturic hura baithan eztela.
6 Whoever remains in him does not sin. Whoever sins has not seen him and does not know him.
Hura baithan egoiten denec eztu bekaturic eguiten: norc-ere bekatu eguiten baitu, eztu ikussi hura, eta eztu eçagutu hura.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Haourtoác, nehorc seduci etzaitzatela: iustitia eguiten duena, iusto da, hura iusto den beçala.
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Bekatu eguiten duena, deabruaganic da: ecen hatseandanic deabruac bekatu eguiten du: hunetacotz aguertu içan da Iaincoaren Semea, deseguin litzançát deabruaren obrác.
9 Whoever is born of God does not commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
Nor-ere iayo içan baita Iaincoaganic, harc bekaturic eztu eguiten: ecen haren hacia haina baithan dago, eta ecin daidi bekaturic, ceren Iaincoaganic iayo içan baita.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever does not do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who does not love his brother.
Hunetan agueri dirade Iaincoaren haourrac eta deabruaren haourrac: norc-ere iustitia ezpaitu eguiten, eta ezpaitu bere anayea onhesten hura ezta Iaincoaganic.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
Ecen haur da hatseandanic ençun vkan duçuen mandatalgoá, Elkarri on eritzi dieçogun.
12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
Ez Cainec beçala, cein baitzén Gaichtoaganic, eta ceinec hil baitzuen bere anayea. Eta cergatic hil vkan çuen? ceren haren obrác gaichto baitziraden, eta haren anayearenac iusto.
13 Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
Ene anayeác, ezteçaçuela mirets baldin çuey gaitz badaritzue munduac.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love his brother remains in death.
Guc badaquigu ecen iragan garela heriotic vicitzera, ecen on dariztegu anayey: anayeari on eztaritzana, herioan dago.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has consummate (aiōnios g166) life remaining in him.
Norc-ere gaitz baitaritza bere anayeri hura guicerhaile da: eta badaquiçue guicerhailec batec-ere eztuela vicitze eternal bere baithan dagoena. (aiōnios g166)
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
Hunetan eçagutu vkan dugu charitatea, ceren harc bere vicia guregatic eçarri vkan baitu, guc-ere beraz gure viciac anayeacgatic eçarri behar ditugu.
17 But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
Bada norc vkanen baituque munduco onetaric, eta ikussiren baituque haren anayeac necessitate duqueela eta ertsiren baitrautza bere halsarrac, nolatan Iaincoaren charitatea egoiten da hura baithan?
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Ene haourtoác, ezteçagula on eritzi hitzez ezeta mihiz, baina obraz eta eguiaz:
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
Eta hunetan eçagutzen dugu ecen eguiatic garela, eta haren aitzinean seguraturen ditugu gure bihotzac.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Ecen baldin condemna baguitza gure bihotzac, handiago da Iaincoa gure bihotza baino, eta eçagutzen ditu gauça guciac.
21 Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
Maiteác, baldin gure bihotzac condemnatzen ezpagaitu, segurança dugu Iaincoa baithan.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Eta ceren-ere esca bagaitez, recebitzen dugu harenganic: ecen haren manamenduac beguiratzen ditugu, eta haren aitzinean placént diraden gauçác eguiten ditugu.
23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.
Eta haur da haren manamendua, Sinhets deçagun Iesus Christ haren Semearen icenean, eta elkarri on daritzogun, manamendu eman dracun beçala.
24 He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
Eta haren manamenduac beguiratzen dituena, hura baithan egoiten da, eta hura haina baithan: eta huneçaz eçagutzen dugu ecen hura egoiten dela gutan, da iaquiteco, eman vkan draucun Spirituaz.
