1 Yohana 5
1 Yeyote anayeamini kuwa Yesu ni Kristo amezaliwa na Mungu. Na yeyote ampendaye yeye ambaye ametoka kwa Baba pia huwapenda watoto wake.
Πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν ὁ χριστὸς ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ γεγέννηται, καὶπᾶς ὁ ἀγαπῶν τὸν γεννήσαντα ἀγαπᾷ ⸀καὶ τὸν γεγεννημένον ἐξ αὐτοῦ.
2 Kwa hili twajua kwamba twawapenda watoto wa Mungu — tunapompenda Mungu na kutekeleza amri zake.
ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τὰ τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ, ὅταν τὸν θεὸν ἀγαπῶμεν καὶ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ⸀ποιῶμεν
3 Hivi ndivyo tunavyompenda Mungu kwamba twazishika amri zake. Na amri zake ni nyepesi.
αὕτη γάρ ἐστιν ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ ἵνα τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηρῶμεν, καὶ αἱ ἐντολαὶ αὐτοῦ βαρεῖαι οὐκ εἰσίν,
4 Kwa kuwa kila aliyezaliwa na Mungu huushinda ulimwengu. Na huu ndio ushindi wa kuushinda ulimwengu, imani yetu.
ὅτι πᾶν τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ νικᾷ τὸν κόσμον. καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ νίκη ἡ νικήσασα τὸν κόσμον, ἡ πίστις ἡμῶν·
5 Ni nani aliyeushinda ulimwengu? Ni yule aaminiye kwamba Yesu ni Mwana wa Mungu.
τίς ⸂δέ ἐστιν ὁ νικῶν τὸν κόσμον εἰ μὴ ὁ πιστεύων ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ;
6 Huyu ndiye aliyekuja kwa maji na damu- Yesu Kristo. Hakuja tu kwa maji bali kwa maji na damu.
Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ ἐλθὼν διʼ ὕδατος καὶ αἵματος, Ἰησοῦς Χριστός· οὐκ ἐντῷ ὕδατι μόνον ἀλλʼ ἐν τῷ ὕδατι καὶ ⸀ἐν τῷ αἵματι· καὶ τὸ πνεῦμά ἐστιν τὸ μαρτυροῦν, ὅτι τὸ πνεῦμά ἐστιν ἡ ἀλήθεια.
7 Kwa kuwa kuna watatu washuhudiao:
ὅτι τρεῖς εἰσιν οἱ μαρτυροῦντες,
8 Roho, maji na damu. Hawa watatu hukubaliana. (Zingatia: Maneno haya “Baba, Neno, na Roho Mtakatifu” hayaonekani katika nakala bora za kale).
τὸ πνεῦμα καὶ τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ τὸ αἷμα, καὶ οἱ τρεῖς εἰς τὸ ἕν εἰσιν.
9 Kama tunaupokea ushuhuda wa wanadamu ushuhuda wa Mungu ni mkuu kuliko huo. Kwa kuwa ushuhuda wa Mungu ni huu- kwamba anao ushuhuda kuhusiana na Mwanawe.
εἰ τὴν μαρτυρίαν τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαμβάνομεν, ἡ μαρτυρία τοῦ θεοῦ μείζων ἐστίν, ὅτιαὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ μαρτυρία τοῦ θεοῦ ⸀ὅτι μεμαρτύρηκεν περὶ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ.
10 Yeye amwaminiye Mwana wa Mungu ana ushuhuda ndani yake mwenyewe. Na yeyote asiye mwamini Mungu amemfanya kuwa mwongo, kwa kuwa hakuuamini ushuhuda ambao Mungu ameuleta kuhusu Mwanawe.
ὁ πιστεύων εἰς τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ ἔχει τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἐν ⸀αὑτῷ ὁ μὴ πιστεύων τῷ θεῷ ψεύστην πεποίηκεν αὐτόν, ὅτι οὐ πεπίστευκεν εἰς τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἣν μεμαρτύρηκεν ὁ θεὸς περὶ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ.
11 Na ushuhuda ndio huu — kwamba Mungu alitupa uzima wa milele, na uzima huu umo ndani ya Mwanawe. (aiōnios g166)
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ μαρτυρία, ὅτι ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἔδωκεν ⸂ὁ θεὸς ἡμῖν, καὶ αὕτη ἡ ζωὴ ἐν τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ ἐστιν. (aiōnios g166)
12 Aliye naye Mwana ana uzima. Asiyekuwa naye Mwana wa Mungu hana uzima.
ὁ ἔχων τὸν υἱὸν ἔχει τὴν ζωήν· ὁ μὴ ἔχων τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ τὴν ζωὴν οὐκ ἔχει.
13 Nimewaandikia haya mweze kujua kwamba mnao uzima wa milele — ninyi mnaoamini katika jina la Mwana wa Mungu. (aiōnios g166)
Ταῦτα ἔγραψα ⸀ὑμῖνἵνα εἰδῆτε ὅτι ζωὴν ⸂ἔχετε αἰώνιον, ⸂τοῖς πιστεύουσιν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ. (aiōnios g166)
14 Na huu ndio ujasiri tulionao mbele zake, kwamba kama tukiomba kitu chochote sawa sawa na mapenzi yake, hutusikia.
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ παρρησία ἣν ἔχομεν πρὸς αὐτόν, ὅτι ἐάν τι αἰτώμεθα κατὰ τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ ἀκούει ἡμῶν.
15 Na kama tunajua kwamba hutusikia — chochote tumwombacho tunajua kwamba tunacho hicho tulichomwomba.
καὶ ἐὰνοἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀκούει ἡμῶν ὃ ⸀ἐὰν αἰτώμεθα, οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἔχομεν τὰ αἰτήματα ἃ ᾐτήκαμεν ⸀ἀπʼαὐτοῦ.
16 Kama mtu amwonaye ndugu yake anatenda dhambi isiyopelekea kifo, yampasa kuomba na Mungu atampa uzima. Ninasema kwa wale ambao dhambi yao ni ile isiyopelekea kifo — Kuna dhambi ipelekeayo kifo — sisemi kwamba anapaswa kuomba kwa ajilli ya dhambi hiyo.
ἐάν τις ἴδῃ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἁμαρτάνοντα ἁμαρτίαν μὴ πρὸς θάνατον, αἰτήσει, καὶ δώσει αὐτῷ ζωήν, τοῖς ἁμαρτάνουσιν μὴ πρὸς θάνατον. ἔστιν ἁμαρτία πρὸς θάνατον· οὐ περὶ ἐκείνης λέγω ἵνα ἐρωτήσῃ.
17 Uasi wote ni dhambi — lakini kuna dhambi isiyopelekea kifo.
πᾶσα ἀδικία ἁμαρτία ἐστίν, καὶ ἔστιν ἁμαρτία οὐ πρὸς θάνατον.
18 Tunajua ya kuwa aliyezaliwa na Mungu hatendi dhambi. Bali aliyezaliwa na Mungu hutunzwa naye salama daima, na yule mwovu hawezi kumdhuru.
Οἴδαμεν ὅτι πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει, ἀλλʼ ὁ γεννηθεὶς ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ τηρεῖ ⸀αὐτόν καὶ ὁ πονηρὸς οὐχ ἅπτεται αὐτοῦ.
19 Tunajua kuwa sisi ni wa Mungu na tunajua kwamba ulimwengu wote uko chini ya utawala wa yule mwovu.
οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἐσμεν, καὶ ὁ κόσμος ὅλος ἐν τῷ πονηρῷ κεῖται.
20 Lakini twajua kwamba Mwana wa Mungu amekuja na ametupatia ujuzi, kwamba tunamjua yeye aliye kweli na kwamba tumo ndani yake yeye aliye kweli, hata katika Mwanawe Yesu Kristo. Ni Mungu wa kweli na uzima wa milele. (aiōnios g166)
οἴδαμεν δὲ ὅτι ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ ἥκει, καὶ δέδωκεν ἡμῖν διάνοιαν ἵνα ⸀γινώσκωμεντὸν ἀληθινόν· καὶ ἐσμὲν ἐν τῷ ἀληθινῷ, ἐν τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ Χριστῷ. οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ ἀληθινὸς θεὸς καὶ ζωὴ αἰώνιος. (aiōnios g166)
21 Watoto wapenzi, jiepusheni na sanamu.
Τεκνία, φυλάξατε ἑαυτὰ ἀπὸ τῶν ⸀εἰδώλων
