1 John 2
1 My children, I am writing to you to keep you from sinning. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father – Jesus Christ, the righteous.
Ka nâingei nunsie nin tho loina rangin hi chong hih ki miziek ani; aniatachu tukhom nunsie a thôn chu, Pa kôm ei ruthûla mi ngên pepu Jisua Khrista, mi dik hah ei dôn.
2 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but the sins of the whole world.
Male Khrista hih ei nunsie ngei ngâidama ei omna ani; eini nunsie vai ni maka, mi murdi nunsie khom ani sa.
3 It is by keeping God’s commands that we can be sure we know him.
Pathien chongpêkngei ei jômin chu ama ei riet ti ei riet minthâr ani.
4 Whoever says ‘I know him,’ but does not keep his commands, is a liar. The truth has no place in them.
Einin ama ki riet tiin a chongpêkngei jôm no ila, eini hah milak ei nia, eini han chongtak a om loi ani.
5 But the person who keeps God’s word, in them the love of God has indeed reached its perfection. This is how we can be sure we are in him:
Tutu khom a chong jômpu ngei chu Pathien lungkhamna hah an mikhip tatak ani. Pathien leh inzomin ei om ti mahin ei riet minthâr thei ani:
6 whoever claims to live in him should live just as Jesus did.
tukhom Pathien leh inzomin ko om ei tiin chu Jisua Khrista om anghan ei om sa rang ani.
7 Dear friends, it is no new command that I am writing to you, but an old command, which you have had from the beginning. That old command is the message you have already heard.
Ka mal moroitak ngei, hi chongpêk nin kôma ki miziek hi athar ni mak; chongpêk muruo aphut renga nin dôn hah ani. Ma chongpêk muruo hah nin lei riet sai thurchi ani.
8 Yet, in a way, it is a new command that I am writing to you – which is shown true in Christ’s life and in yours – for the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.
Hannoma, chongpêk atûna nin kôma ki miziek hi chu athar ani, asikchu chongtak hah Khrista taka le nangni ngeia hin ânlang. Ajîng hah ahek tira male avâr tatak hah a juong vâr zoi ani.
9 The person who says that they are in the light, and yet hates others, is still in the darkness.
Tukhomin avâra kin om tiin an lâibung ngei le sarnu ngei an la mumâk titin chu, atûn tena hin ijînga an la om bang ani.
10 The person who loves others is always in the light, and there is nothing within them to cause them to stumble.
Tukhomin an lâibungngei le sarnu ngei an lungkhamin chu avâra an om tita, annia han sietna inpalna rang reng om mak.
11 The person who hates is in the dark. They stumble along in the darkness; they do not know where they are going because the darkness blinds them.
Ania tukhom ei lâibungngei le ei sarnu ngei la mumâkpu chu ajînga ei oma; ajînga ei lôn banga, ajîngin ei mit a mincho zoi sikin ei sena khom riet ngâi mak me.
12 Little children, I am writing to you because your sins have been forgiven for Christ’s sake.
Ka nâingei, Khrista jârin nin nunsie ngei ngâidamin a om zoi sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani.
13 Parents, I am writing to you because you have come to know him who has been from the beginning. Young people, I am writing to you because you have conquered the evil one. Children, I write to you because you have come to know the Father.
Pa ngei, ama hah aphut renga a omtit hah nin riet sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani. Vânglâingei, Saloi Inkhat hah nin mene zoi sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani.
14 Parents, I write to you because you have learned to know him who has been from the beginning. Young people, I write to you because you are strong, and God’s message is always in your hearts, and you have conquered the evil one.
Ka nâingei, Pa hah nin riet sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani. Pa ngei ama hah aphut renga a omtit hah nin riet sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani. Vânglâingei, nin râta; Pathien chong nin sûnga a om tita, male Saloi Inkhat hah nin mene zoi sikin nin kôm ki miziek ani.
15 Do not love the world or what the world can offer. When anyone loves the world, there is no love for the Father in them.
Rammuol hi midit no ungla, hanchu rammuola neinun ngei khom ite midit no roi. Rammuol nin miditin chu Pa nin lungkham loi ani.
16 For all that the world can offer – the desires for physical pleasure, the enticements to the eye, the arrogance of wealth – belongs, not to the Father, but to the world.
Rammuola neinun a omngei murdi taksa ôina ngei, miriem mita mu theingei le anâng ngei, male miriem damsûng insongpuina ngei hi khote Pa renga juong nimak ngei; hima ngei murdi hi rammuol renga korong an ni.
17 And the world, and all that it gratifies, is passing away, but they who do God’s will remain for ever. (aiōn g165)
Rammuol le a sûnga neinunngei murdi miriemin an ôingei hih ânmang tir ani; aniatachu Pathien lungdo sinngei chu tuonsôtin om tit an tih. (aiōn g165)
18 My children, it is the last hour. You were told that an antichrist was coming; and many antichrists have already arisen. This is why we know that this is the last hour.
Ka nâingei, zora mongna anâi zoi! Khrista Râl la hong om atih, tia rila nin om anghan; Khrista râlngei tamtak an inlang zoi, masikin zora mongna anâi zoi tiin ei riet ani.
19 These people come from our ranks, but they were never truly part of us – if they had been then they would have stayed with us. They left so it would be clear that none of them really belonged to us.
Hi mingei hih ei pâla mi reng ni mak ngei, masika han min mâksan ani; ei pâla mi nisenla ngei chu, ei kôm om tit an tih. Aniatachu min mâksan sikin ei pâla mi ni tatak mak ngei ti chu ânthâr thei ani.
20 You, however, have been annointed by the Holy One. You all know the truth.
Hannirese Khrista'n Ratha Inthieng nin chunga a vur zoi sikin nin rêngin chongtak nin riet ani.
21 I am not writing to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie can come from the truth.
Hanchu chongtak riet mak chei ti sika nin kôm ki miziek ni maka; manêkin, chongtak nin riet sik le chongtak renga milak reng suok ngâi mak ti khom nin riet sika ani.
22 Who is a liar, if not the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? That person is the antichrist – one who rejects the Father and the Son.
Nônte, tumo milak ani? Tukhom Jisua chu Messiah ni mak tipu hah ani. Ma anga mi ngei hah Khrista Râlngei an nia Pa le Nâipasal anni innikin an heng ani.
23 No one who rejects the Son has the Father; to acknowledge the Son is to have the Father also.
Tukhom Nâipasal hengpu chu Pa khom a heng ani; tukhom Nâipasal pom chu Pa khom a pom sa ani.
24 As for you, you must let what you have heard from the beginning continue to live in you. If what you heard from the beginning dwells in you, you will remain both in the Son and the Father.
Nangni chu aphut renga nin chong riet hah nin mulungrîla vong tit rangin mindon roi. Hanchu ma chong hah nin vong titin chu Nâipasal le Pa leh inzomin om tit nin tih.
Male mahi ani Khrista lelên kumtuong ringna mi pêk ranga ânkhâm hah. (aiōnios g166)
26 In writing this to you, I have in mind those who are trying to mislead you.
Ma nangni huong ranga bôk ngei thurchi hah nin kôm ki miziek ani.
27 As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains with you. You do not need anyone to teach you. His anointing teaches you about everything. What it teaches you is true, it is not a lie. Do what it has taught you: abide in him.
Aniatachu nangni chu, Khrista'n ama Ratha nin chunga a vur zoia, ama Ratha hah nin sûnga a om tena chu, tute minchu rang nâng mak chei. Ama Ratha han neinun murdi nangni a minchua, male nangni minchu ngei khom adika, adikloi nimak. Ratha minchuna hah jôm ungla, male Khrista leh inzomin omtit roi.
28 Yes, my children, remain in him, so that when he appears our confidence doesn’t fail us, and we are not ashamed to meet him at his coming.
Ani, ka nâingei, ama leh inzomin omtit roi, hanchu ama a juong inlâr Nikhuo han inzaka inthup loiin hâitakin om thei nin tih.
29 Since you know he is righteous, you realise that everyone who does what is right is his child.
Khrista chu midik ani; ti nin riet sikin tukhom adik sinpu chu Pathien nâi ani ti nin riet rang ani.
