1 John 5
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
Yeyoteb ywaaminiya kuwa Kristo abelekwile na Nnongo. Na yeyote ywampenda ywembe ambaye aboka kwa Tate ubapenda bana bake.
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
Kwa lee tutangite panga twawapenda bana ba Nnongo-patumpendile Nnongo na kuipanga amri yake.
3 For this is loving God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
Ayee nga namna ya kumpenda Nnongo panga twazikamwa amri zake. Na amri zake ni nyepesi.
4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.
Kwa kuwa kila ywabelekilwe na Nnongo huushinda ulimwengu. Na wolo nga ushindi wa kuushinda ulimwengu, imani yitu.
5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
Ni nyai ywaushinda ulimwengu? Na yolo ywaaminiye panga Yesu ni Mwana wa Nnongo.
6 This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
Ayee nga ywaisile kwa mase na myai-Yesu Kristo. Aisa kwaa tu kwa mase ila kwa mase na myai.
7 For there are three who testify:
Kwa mana babile atatu bashuhudiao:
8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.
Roho, mase na myai. Haba atatu uyeketyana. Zingatia: Maneno aga “Tate, Neno, na Roho Mtakatifu” yabonekania kwaa katika nakala bora za kale)
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God’s testimony which he has testified concerning his Son.
Mana twapokya ushuhuda wa bandu ba Nnongo ni nkolo kuliko wolo. Kwa mana ushuhuda wa Nnongo ni wolo-panga abile na ushuhuda kuhusiana na mwana wake.
10 He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
Ywembe ywamwaminiye mwana wa Nnongo abile na ushuhuda nkati yake mwene. Na yeyote ywaamwiniya kwaa Nnongo ampangite kuwa mbocho, kwa mana aaminiya kwaa ushuhuda ambao Nnongo atiuleta kuhusu mwana wake.
11 The testimony is this: that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
Na ushuhuda nga wolo-panga Nnongo atupeile ukoto wa milele, na ukoto ubile nkati ya mwana wake. (aiōnios g166)
12 He who has the Son has the life. He who doesn’t have God’s Son doesn’t have the life.
Ywabile nae mwana abile na ukoto. Ywabile kwaa naywembe Mwana wa Nnongo abile nkoto.
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
Natiwaandikia aga muweze kutanga panga mubile na ukoto wa milele-mwenga mwamuaminiya katika lina lya Mwana wa Nnongo. (aiōnios g166)
14 This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
Na wolo nga ujasiri tubile nao nnongi yake, panga mana tukiloba kilebe chochote sawa sawa na mapenzi gake, hutusikia-
15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
Na mana tutangite panga hutupekania-chochote cha tukiloba kwake tutangite panga hutupekania panga tubile nacho hicho chatumlobite.
16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I don’t say that he should make a request concerning this.
Mana mundu ywanloba nongowe atenda sambi yapelekea kwa kiwo, apalikwa kuloba na Nnongo alowa kumpeya ukoto. Nalongela kwa balo ambao sambi yabe ni yelo yaipelekea kwaa kiwo-pabile na sambi yaipelekea kiwo-nilongela kwaa panga apalikwa kuloba kwa ajili ya sambi yee.
17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death.
Uasi wote ni sambi-lakini pabile na sambi yaipelekea kwaa kiwo.
18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t touch him.
Tutangite ya kuwa ywabelekilwe na Nnongo apanga kwaa sambi. Ila ywabelekilwe na Nnongo hutunzwa naywembe salama daima, na yolo nchela aweza kwaa kumdhuru.
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
Tutangite panga twenga ni wa Nnongo na tutangite panga ulimwengu wote ubile pae ya utawala wa yolo nchela.
20 We know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Lakini tutangite panga Mwana wa Nnongo aisile na atupeya ujuzi, panga tuntangite ywembe ywabile mu kweli na panga tubile nkati yake ywembe ywabile kweli, hata katika mwana wake Yesu Kristo. Ni Nnongo wa kweli na ukoto wa milele. (aiōnios g166)
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
Bana apenzi, mujiepushe na sanamu.
