1 Yuhana 1
1 Inlele wadi infune, elena tina mali lazu ilena tina mali yenu nin nizi bit, ilena tina mali gwinu, nin nachara bi na kifoo, kitene tipin lai.
That which was from the beginning, which we have listened to, which we have seen with our own eyes, and our own hands have handled concerning the Word of Life--
2 Ulaiye na ina yinin nin yenu, nin tinizi iba nin beling minu ulai sali ligang, ulena wadi nin ncife, na tina yino kiti bit. (aiōnios g166)
the Life was manifested, and we have seen and bear witness, and we declare unto you the Life of the Ages which was with the Father and was manifested to us-- (aiōnios g166)
3 Ilele na ti yene nin lanzu tima belin minu, bara usuu usujaida ligowe nin narik nin usujaida ligowe nin Ncif nin Uson, Yesu Kristi
that which we have seen and listened to we now announce to you also, in order that you also may have fellowship in it with us, and this fellowship with us is fellowship with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.
4 Tinanin yrtine elemone bara ti timinu liburi liboo kaan.
And we write these things in order that our joy may be made complete.
5 Ulelere uliru umagulete dana tina laza tidin belin minu: Kutelle nkanan ghari nanya me na mbibit diku ba vat.
This is the Message which we have heard from the Lord Jesus and now deliver to you--God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness.
6 Andi tibenle tidin su usujaida ligowe nin ghe tinani din chin nanya sirti tia kinu, natidin su kidegen ghe ba.
If, while we are living in darkness, we profess to have fellowship with Him, we speak falsely and are not adhering to the truth.
7 Bara nani andi tidin chin nanya nkana ghe nafo amen in nkanan ghe, tinani dinin dimun usujaida ligowe nin kogha, nin mmii Yesu uson me kusu nari lau unu nalapi bit.
But if we live in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 Andi ti woro tidinin kulapi ba, tidin rusuzu atibitari na kidegen di nanya bi ba.
If we claim to be already free from sin, we lead ourselves astray and the truth has no place in our hearts.
9 Bara nani anadi benle alapi bit, ame dinin kibinai kisheu ma shawu nin na lapi bite anin kusu nari lau unuzu salinlaubite.
If we confess our sins, He is so faithful and just that He forgives us our sins and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.
10 Andi tibenle ti dinin na lapi ba tita ghe unan kinu, nin nani tipipin me di nanya bit ba.
If we deny that we have sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Message has no place in our hearts.
