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 doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.
Bhai nnolanje, Atati shibhakuti kutupinga mpaka muntima, nikutushema bhana bha a Nnungu, na nneyo ni shituli uwe. Shilambolyo bhakakutumanyanga uwe pabha bhakakwaamanyanga a Nnungu.
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.
Bhakilishitu ajangunji, uwe nnaino ni tubhana bha a Nnungu, ikabheje ikanabhe manyika shitubhe bhuli pushibhakoposhele a Kilishitupo. Ikabheje tumumanyi kuti shitulandane nabho pabha shitwaabhone shibhali.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Bhai kila mundu akulikulupalila lyeneli mwa a Kilishitu, anakwiibhika ukoto mbuti a Kilishitu shibhali bha ukonjelo.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Kila mundu atenda shambi anakujikana shalia ja a Nnungu pabha shambi ni kujikana shalia.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
Mmumanyinji kuti a Kilishitu bhashinkuika kuushoya yambi yetu na bhenebho bhangali shambi shoshowe.
6 Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
Bhai kila atama nkulundana na a Kilishitu akayobhelela kutenda shambi, ikabheje kila mundu atenda shambi akanabhe kwaabhona a Kilishitu, wala akakwaamanya a Kilishitu.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Bhai ashibhanangu nnakundanje kupuganywa naka mundu jojowe. Mundu atenda itendi ya mmbone, jwenejo akwete aki malinga a Kilishitu shibhali bha aki
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.
Ikabheje ayobhelela kutenda shambi, jwenejo juka Lishetani, pabha Lishetani ayobhelele kutenda shambi kuumila kundandubho. Ikabhe Mwana jwa a Nnungu, ashinkuika pa shilambolyo kuangabhanya maengo gaka Lishetani.
9 Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.
Kila mwana abhelekwe na a Nnungu, akayobhelela kutenda shambi pabha Unnungu uli nkati jakwe, wala akayobhelela kutenda shambi, pabha jwenejo ni mwana jwa a Nnungu.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.
Nneyo peyo ni pwiikumanyika mwana jwa a Nnungu na mwana juka Lishetani. Mundu jojowe akaatenda ya aki, na akakwaapinganga bhaakulupalilanga ajakwe, jwenejo nngabha mwana jwa a Nnungu.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
Ntenga gumpilikenenje kuumila kundandubho ni gweguno, tunapinjikwa kupingana twaashayene.
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.
Tunabhe mbuti Kaini, jwenejo paaliji juka Lishetani, ashinkummulaga mpwakwe. Kwa ligongo lyashi ashinkummulaga mpwakwe? Kwa ligongo lya itendi yakwe nnyene ishinkubha ya nyata, ikabheje ika mpwakwe puyaliji ya aki.
13 Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
Bhai bhaakulupalilanga ajangunji, nnakanganigwanje ibhaga shilambolyo shikakumpinganga mmanganyanji.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.
Uwe tumumanyi kuti tupitile kukopoka nshiwo nikwenda ku gumi, pabha tunakwaapinganga Bhakilishitu ajetunji. Mundu akakwaapinganga bhakilishitu ajakwe anatama nshiwo
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)
Kila akakumpinga akulupalila nnjakwe jwenejo nkubhulaga, na mmanganyanji mmumanyinji kuti jojowe abhulaga jwangali gumi gwa pitipiti nkati jakwe. (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.
Uwe putukumanyi kupingana ni nneino. A Yeshu Kilishitu bhashinkwiishoya gumi gwabho kwa ligongo lyetu uwe, numbe uwe tunapinjikwa kwiishoya gumi gwetu kwa ligongo lya bhaakulupalilanga ajetu
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?
Bhai mundu akolaga mali ga pashilambo pano, na ammonaga nnjakwe ali nshilaje, nikola ntima gwa nonopa gwangali kummonela shiya, a Nnungu shibhampinje bhuli jwenejo?
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Ashibhanangu kupingana kwetu kunabhe malobhe jika, ikabhe tupingane kwa kweli na kwa itendi.
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
Nneyo ni pushitumumanye kuti uwe ni tubhandu bha kweli, na tukakola lipamba kwa a Nnungu.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Ibhaga ndumbililo yetu ituukumulaga, tumumanyi kuti a Nnungu ni bhakulungwa kupunda ndumbililo yetu, na kuti Bhenebho bhashimanyi kila shindu.
21 Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
Ashaambwiga ajangunji, ibhaga mitima jetu jangali sha kutuukumula, bhai shitukombole kubha na makangala ga kwaajendela a Nnungu.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Na shituposhele kwa bhenebho shoshowe shitujuga, pabha tunakagulila malajilo gabho, na tenda ikwaanonyela.
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.
Na malajilo gabho ni nnei, twaakulupalile Bhanabhabho a Yeshu Kilishitu, na tupingane malinga shibhatulajile.
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.
Akagulila malajilo ga a Nnungu, anatama nkulundana na a Nnungu, na a Nnungu bhanatama nkulundana na jwenejo. Kupitila kuka Mbumu jubhatupeleshele a Nnungu, uwe tumumanyi kuti a Nnungu, bhanatama nkulundana na uwe.
