1 Yuhana 3
1 Yenen musin ukauna ulena Ucif na ni nari, ina yichila nari nono Kutelle. Nanere arike di. Bara nenere, uye yiru nari ba, bara na iyiru ghe ba.
Consider how great a love the Father has bestowed on us that we should be called children of God! The world does not acknowledge us for this reason: it did not acknowledge Him.
2 Kinnayi nin, nene arik nono Kutelleri, na ise yino yeri tima yitu ba, tiyiru kubi ko na Kristi ma dak, tima yitu nafo ame, tima yenughe nafo na adi.
Dear ones, right now we are children of God and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is
3 Vat ulena adinin le ubege ama yisunu kitime anin kusu litime lau nafo inda na ame di lau.
—everyone who has this hope upon him purifies himself, even as He is pure.
4 Vat ulena a leu ubun kulapi, adi durtu udoke ba. Bara nani kulape kunnare usalin durtu udoka.
Everyone who commits sin commits lawlessness as well; yes, sin is lawlessness.
5 Iyiru vat Kristi na dak bara ana yira alapi bit. Bara nan nya me kulapi diku ba.
And you know that He was revealed in order to remove our sins—in Him there is no sin.
6 Ulena adi nanya me adinin suu kulapi ba. Ulena aleu ubung kulapi na ayeneghe ba kokuwa na yirughe ba.
Whoever is abiding in Him does not sin; indeed, whoever is sinning has neither seen Him nor known Him.
7 Nono nin, na iwa yinin imon rusuzu minu ba. Ame ulena asuu kata kalau adi lauware, nafo na ame Kristidi lau.
Dear children, let no one mislead you; he who keeps doing righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
8 Ame ulena asuu kulapi ame di nin ibilis, bara ame ibilis nasuu kulapi tun uchizune. Bara nanere Gono Kutelle na dak, bara ana naza katwa in ibilis se.
He who keeps doing sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was manifested for this purpose: to undo the devil's works.
9 Ulena ina marughe kiti Kutelle na adin suu kulapi ba bara imus Kutelle di nanya me. Na awangya asuu kulapi ba bara ina maru gye kiti Kutelle.
Whoever has been begotten by God does not commit sin, because His seed remains in him; actually, he is not able to sin, because he has been begotten by God.
10 Nanya nanere nono Kutelle nin nono in ibilise ima yenu nanin kanang. Vat ulena anri usu nimong ilau ame di nin Kutelle ba, nin lena adini suu gwana me ba.
In this the children of God and the children of the devil are distinguished: whoever is not doing righteousness is not of God, also whoever is not loving his brother.
11 Bara ule usakwere ina malin lanzu nin chizunu, i suu ukauna nati mine,
Because this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another
12 na yinda na Kayinu nasu ulena awadi nin ibilis amini wa molu gwa name. Bari yanghari ana molu gwa na me? Bara katwa me wadi kan ibilis sari, nin lau gwana me.
—not like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own works were evil, while those of his brother were righteous.
13 Na iwa suu umamki ba, nwana nin, andi uye nari minu.
My brothers, do not be surprised if the world hates you.
14 Tiyiru tina malin katu ukule udu annya lai, bara ti dinin suu nin nwana.
We know that we have transferred out of the death into the life because we love our brothers; he who does not love his brother remains in the death.
15 Ulena anari gwana me unan molusari. Inanin yiru ulai sali ligang di kiti nale anan molusari. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding within himself. (aiōnios g166)
16 Bara nani tiyiru ukaune, bara Kristi na ni ulai me bara nwana.
We know the Love by this: He laid down His life in our behalf; we also are obligated to lay down our lives in behalf of our brothers.
17 Bara ulena adinin nimong iye anin yene gwana me dimon ba, amini nari ubunu gwana me, iyizari ukauna Kutele di kitime?
Now whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart toward him—how does the love of God abide in him?
18 Nono nin, nati suu ukauna ti nuu ba ko ti lem ama ni nayuka ni kidegen.
My dear children, let us not love in word or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth
19 Bara nani tiyiru kidegen nin ni binai bit kit kiti me.
—yes, by this we know that we are of the Truth and may put our hearts at ease in His presence,
20 Bara andi nibinai bit wanla nari, Kuttelle katin nibinai bit, amini yiru imon vat,
and that, if our heart should condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all.
21 Kin nayini, andi nibanai bit wala nari ba ti nin likara yisunu kiti Kutelle.
Dear ones, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God,
22 Vat elemon na titirino ama ni nari, bara tii ceu tidokoki me ti nani din suu imong na icoon kusari me.
and whatever we may ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.
23 Ulelare tidokoki me-tiyinin nin lisa son me Yesu Kristi nin suu kauna kogha, nafo na ana ni nari tidoka.
Now this is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded.
24 Ulena adin dortu tidokoki adi nanya me, Kutelle di nanya me. Nin nanere tima yinu adi nanya bit, nin fip milau na ana ni nari.
He who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. This is how we know that He remains in us: by the Spirit whom He gave us.
