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.
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.
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.
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.
3 Vat ulena adinin le ubege ama yisunu kitime anin kusu litime lau nafo inda na ame di lau.
Everyone who has this hope set on 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 sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
5 Iyiru vat Kristi na dak bara ana yira alapi bit. Bara nan nya me kulapi diku ba.
You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
6 Ulena adi nanya me adinin suu kulapi ba. Ulena aleu ubung kulapi na ayeneghe ba kokuwa na yirughe ba.
Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
7 Nono nin, na iwa yinin imon rusuzu minu ba. Ame ulena asuu kata kalau adi lauware, nafo na ame Kristidi lau.
Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even 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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
11 Bara ule usakwere ina malin lanzu nin chizunu, i suu ukauna nati mine,
For this is the message which 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.
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.
13 Na iwa suu umamki ba, nwana nin, andi uye nari minu.
Don’t be surprised, my brothers, 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 passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.
15 Ulena anari gwana me unan molusari. Inanin yiru ulai sali ligang di kiti nale anan molusari. (aiōnios g166)
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)
16 Bara nani tiyiru ukaune, bara Kristi na ni ulai me bara nwana.
By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
17 Bara ulena adinin nimong iye anin yene gwana me dimon ba, amini nari ubunu gwana me, iyizari ukauna Kutele di kitime?
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?
18 Nono nin, nati suu ukauna ti nuu ba ko ti lem ama ni nayuka ni kidegen.
My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
19 Bara nani tiyiru kidegen nin ni binai bit kit kiti me.
And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
20 Bara andi nibinai bit wanla nari, Kuttelle katin nibinai bit, amini yiru imon vat,
because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Kin nayini, andi nibanai bit wala nari ba ti nin likara yisunu kiti Kutelle.
Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
22 Vat elemon na titirino ama ni nari, bara tii ceu tidokoki me ti nani din suu imong na icoon kusari me.
so whatever we 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.
This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even 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 remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
