1 John 3
1 Look at the amazing kind of love the Father has for us! This is why we can be called God's children—for that's who we are! The reason why the people of this world don't recognize us as God's children is because they don't recognize him.
Enyi lugawanoshi lwatipieo Baba kjetikwiziwabhana bhalongobheeshi, shashesho satiwheli. Ensisetimenye wope sebhamenye umwene.
2 My friends, we are already God's children; however what we shall become hasn't been revealed just yet. But we do know that when he appears, we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he really is.
Bhamwetu ate eshitilibhanabhakwe bhangolobhe. Eseleamanyishe pasele ajesataibha tumenye ajeoKristi naibhoneha, tailengana nawo, wape taihulolanashisali.
3 All those who have this hope in them make sure they are pure, just as he is pure.
Umuntu omoyalinidadaa yalanganyizize wamwene, awiyozye yuyo nashi umwene sali ofinjile.
4 All those who sin are lawless, because sin is lawlessness.
Shilamntu yawendelela abhombe embibhi avunzaendajizo, afawtanaje. Embibhi zinankanya Endajizyo.
5 But of course you know that Jesus came to take away sins, and that there is no sin in him.
Mumenye Kristi abhonesewe aje azyefe embibhi kwonti mhati mwakwe nazimo embibhi.
6 All those who live in him don't go on sinning; all those who keep on sinning haven't seen him and haven't known him.
Nomohataomo yakhala hawimhatiyakwe nabhoyelele abhombe embibhi nomoumuntu, hataomoyakhalawila, nembibhi, nkashelealolile, olwenje amenye omwene.
7 Dear friends, don't let anyone fool you: those who do what is right are right, in the same way as Jesus is right.
Bhana mwamgenwe, msahetesheakhopelwe. umuntu yoyontiyabhomba elyoliwelyoli nashio Kristi wape, saliwelyoli.
8 Those who sin are of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. That's the reason why the Son of God came—to destroy what the devil has done.
Yabhomba embibhi oyo wa setano afwatameje, ashetano abhomba embibhi, afumehale. Eshomwana wangolobhe abhonesheweaje azinankanye embomba zya shetano.
9 All those who are born of God don't keep on sinning, for God's nature lives in them. They can't keep on sinning because they are born of God.
Yayonyi yapepwe no Ngolobhe sagabhomba embibhi, alenganeje embeyu ya ngolobhe ekheye mhati yakwe sawezizye abhombe embibhi afateje apepwenongolobhi.
10 This is how God's children and the devil's children can be distinguished: all those who don't do what's right don't belong to God, nor do those who don't love their fellow Christians.
Eshieli abhana bhangolobhe na bhana bha setano bhabhoneha wawontiyashele sagabhomba gagaligelyolioyo sagawangolobhe olayashelesagabhajie abhugane ukholo wakwe.
11 The message you've heard from the beginning is simply this: we should love one another.
Eyo nongwa ya mwahovwezeafume whande aje wanziwaje tigananaje tete na tete,
12 We cannot be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one, and murdered his brother. Why did he murder him? Because Cain did what was evil, while his brother did what was right.
saga nashi oKaini alibhibhi abudile oholo wakhe yenuabudile? afatanaje embombozyakwe zialimbibhi nazila. Embombozya holowakwe ziali nyinza.
13 So don't be surprised, my friends, if this world hates you!
Bhamwetu, msaswije, ensiebha bhavitwe.
14 The reason we know that we have changed from death to life is because we love our Christian brothers and sisters. Anyone who doesn't love remains dead.
Timenye tufumile hunfwatinjje, huwomi afatanaje tibhagene aholo yayonti yashele sagali nolugano hawendele akhale humfwa.
15 All those who hate their Christian brothers and sisters are murderers, and you know that no murderers have eternal life within them! (aiōnios g166)
Omntu yoyonti yashele ahuvitwa oholowakwe, oyogoji mmenyeaje owomwawila sagaukhala mwagoji. (aiōnios g166)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our Christian brothers and sisters.
Wheli timenye ulugano aloleje oYesu afumizye owomi wakwe, whilite nate waziwaje tiwifumie okhalo lwetu waholo.
17 If one of you is living well in this world and you see your Christian brother or sister in need, but you don't show compassion—how can God's love be living in you?
Lelo wawonti yalinevintu ahulola oholo wakwe yapongoshelewe, omwene aziga omwoyo gwakwe eshi; olugano lwangolobhe anzakhalewole mhati yakwe?
18 Dear friends, let's not just say we love with words, but show our love in what we do and how we demonstrate the truth.
Bhanahbane bhaholo tigajegane whilomu nahunongwa wene tibhonesyaje embombo enzye lyoli.
19 This is how we will know that we belong to the truth, and how we will set our minds at rest before God
Wega timenye aje atetilimlyili na moyogetu gabhonesheye wa mwene.
20 whenever we think we're in the wrong. God is greater than how we think, and he knows everything.
Nkashele amoyogetu sagagatilongas Ongolobhi gosi, ashile amoyo getu omwene amenye, embombozye zyonti.
21 Dear friends, if we're reassured we're not in the wrong, we can have confidence before God.
Bhamwetu nkashele amoyo getu segati longa tilibhadandamazu waNgolobhe.
22 We'll receive from him whatever we ask him for, because we follow his commands and do what pleases him.
Lyalyonti lya afume wamwene tukhata indajizyo ziakwe, tibhomba embombo ziazikhondela witagalila lyakwe.
23 This is what he commands: we should trust in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he commanded us to do.
Ene ndajizio zyakwe itawa lyakwe oYesu Kiristi na ganane tete na tete nashi sati pie endajizio zyakwe.
24 Those who keep his commands continue to live in him, and he lives in them. We know that he lives in us by the Spirit he has given us.
Yahogopa endajizo zyakwe awendelela mhati yakwe, naongolobhe akhala mhati yakwe timenye aje akhala mhati yetu wampepo yatipie.
