1 John 2
1 Little children of mine, these things I am writing to you so that not you may sin; And if anyone shall sin, an advocate we have with the Father, Jesus Christ [the] Righteous [One],
Twana twakwa nyendete, ngũmwandĩkĩra maũndũ maya nĩgeetha mũtikehagie. No mũndũ o na ũ angĩĩhia-rĩ, nĩ tũrĩ na mũtũciirĩrĩri harĩ Ithe witũ, na nĩwe Jesũ Kristũ, Ũrĩa Mũthingu.
2 And He himself [the] propitiation is for the sins of us; not for those of ourselves and only but also for all the world.
We nĩwe igongona rĩa kũhoroheria mehia maitũ, na to mehia maitũ moiki, no nĩ mehia ma andũ othe a thĩ.
3 And by this we know that we have come to know Him, if the commandments of Him we shall keep.
Na ithuĩ nĩtũmenyaga atĩ nĩtũmũũĩ, angĩkorwo nĩtwathĩkagĩra maathani make.
4 The [one] saying (that *no) I have known Him and the commandments of Him not keeping, a liar he is, and in him the truth not is;
Mũndũ ũrĩa uugaga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩmũũĩ,” no ndekaga ũrĩa aathanaga-rĩ, ũcio nĩ wa maheeni, na ũhoro wa ma ndũrĩ thĩinĩ wake.
5 Who[ever] however maybe may keep His word, truly in him the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that in Him we are.
No mũndũ o wothe angĩathĩkĩra kiugo gĩake-rĩ, ti-itherũ wendo wa Ngai nĩmũkinyanĩru kũna thĩinĩ wake. Ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo ũtũmaga tũmenye atĩ tũrĩ thĩinĩ wake:
6 The [one] claiming in Him to abide ought even as that [one] walked also He himself in the same way to walk.
Ũrĩa wothe uugaga atĩ nĩatũire thĩinĩ wake-rĩ, no nginya athiĩ na mĩthiĩre ta ĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩ nayo.
7 (Beloved, *N+KO) not a commandment new I am writing to you but a commandment old which you have had from [the] beginning; The commandment old is the word that you have heard (from beginning. *K)
Arata akwa endwa, ti rĩathani rĩerũ ndĩramwandĩkĩra, no nĩ rĩathani rĩrĩa rĩa tene, o rĩrĩa mũtũire narĩo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria. Rĩathani rĩĩrĩ rĩa tene nĩrĩo ndũmĩrĩri ĩrĩa mũiguĩte.
8 Again a commandment new I am writing to you which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the light true already shines.
No rĩu nĩ rĩathani rĩerũ ndĩramwandĩkĩra; naguo ũhoro wa ma warĩo wonekaga thĩinĩ wake na thĩinĩ wanyu, tondũ nduma no ĩrathira, naguo ũtheri ũrĩa wa ma nĩũrĩkĩtie kwara.
9 The [one] claiming in the light to be and the brother of him hating in the darkness is until now.
Mũndũ ũrĩa uugaga atĩ arĩ ũtheri-inĩ no nĩathũire mũrũ kana mwarĩ wa ithe-rĩ, ũcio arĩ o nduma-inĩ.
10 The [one] loving the brother of him in the light abides and cause for stumbling in him not there is.
Ũrĩa wothe wendete mũrũ na mwarĩ wa ithe atũũraga ũtheri-inĩ, na thĩinĩ wake gũtirĩ ũndũ ũngĩtũma ahĩngwo.
11 The [one] however hating the brother of him in the darkness is and in the darkness walks and not does he know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded the eyes of him.
No ũrĩa wothe ũthũire mũrũ kana mwarĩ wa ithe, arĩ nduma-inĩ na athiiaga na nduma; ndamenyaga kũrĩa arathiĩ, tondũ nduma nĩĩmũtuĩte mũtumumu.
12 I am writing to you, little children, because have been forgiven your sins for the sake of the name of Him.
Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ twana twakwa nyendete, tondũ nĩmũrekeirwo mehia manyu nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you have known Him who [is] from [the] beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil [one]. (I have written *N+kO) to you, little children, because you have known the Father.
Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ maithe, tondũ nĩmũmenyete ũrĩa warĩ kuo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria. Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ andũ ethĩ, tondũ nĩmũtooretie ũrĩa mũũru. Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ twana twakwa nyendete, tondũ nĩmũmenyete Ithe witũ.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him who [is] from [the] beginning. I have written to you, young men, because strong you are and the word of God in you abides and you have overcome the evil [one].
Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ maithe, tondũ nĩmũmenyete ũrĩa warĩ kuo kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria. Ndĩramwandĩkĩra, inyuĩ andũ ethĩ, tondũ mũrĩ na hinya, nakĩo kiugo kĩa Ngai nĩgĩtũũraga thĩinĩ wanyu, na nĩmũtooretie ũrĩa mũũru.
15 Not do love the world nor the [things] in the world. If anyone shall love the world, not is the love of the Father in him;
Mũtikende thĩ kana kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩrĩ thĩinĩ wa thĩ. Mũndũ o na ũ angĩkorwo nĩendete thĩ-rĩ, wendo wa Ithe witũ ndũrĩ thĩinĩ wake.
16 because all that [is] in the world, the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the vaunting of life, not is from the Father but from the world is.
Nĩgũkorwo ũndũ o wothe ũrĩ gũkũ thĩ, na nĩmo merirĩria ma mwĩrĩ, na merirĩria ma maitho make, na mwĩraho wa kĩrĩa arĩ nakĩo na ũrĩa ekaga: maũndũ macio matiumanĩte na Ithe witũ, no moimanĩte na thĩ.
17 And the world is passing away and the desire of it; the [one] however doing the will of God abides to the age. (aiōn g165)
Thĩ na merirĩria mayo nĩithiraga, no mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga ũrĩa Ngai endaga atũũraga nginya tene. (aiōn g165)
18 Little children, [the] last hour it is, and even as you have heard that antichrist is coming, even now antichrists many have arisen whereby we know that [the] last hour it is.
Twana twakwa nyendete, rĩĩrĩ nĩ ithaa rĩa kũrigĩrĩria; na o ta ũrĩa mũiguĩte atĩ mũmena-Kristũ nĩarooka, o na rĩu amena-Kristũ aingĩ nĩmokĩte. Na nĩ ũndũ ũcio nĩtũmenyete atĩ rĩĩrĩ nĩrĩo ithaa rĩa kũrigĩrĩria.
19 From among us they went out but not they were of us; if for of us they were being they had remained then would with us; But [it is] so that it may be made manifest that not they are all of us.
Kuuma nĩmoimire kũrĩ ithuĩ, no matiarĩ aitũ. Nĩgũkorwo mangĩarĩ aitũ-rĩ, nĩmangĩaikarire hamwe na ithuĩ; no gũthiĩ kwao kuonanirie atĩ gũtiarĩ o na ũmwe wao warĩ witũ.
20 And you yourselves [the] anointing have from the Holy [One] and you know (all [you]. *N+KO)
No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũrĩ ahake maguta nĩ Ũrĩa Mũtheru, na inyuĩ inyuothe nĩmũũĩ ũhoro wa ma.
21 Not I have written to you because not you know the truth but because you know it and because any lie of the truth not is.
Ndĩramwandĩkĩra tondũ mũtiũĩ ũhoro wa ma, no ngũmwandĩkĩra tondũ nĩmũũĩ ũhoro wa ma, na tondũ gũtirĩ ũhoro wa maheeni uumanaga na ũhoro wa ma.
22 who is the liar only except the [one] denying that Jesus not is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the [one] denying the Father and the Son.
Nũũ ũkĩrĩ mũheenania? Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũkaanaga atĩ Jesũ nĩwe Kristũ. Mũndũ ta ũcio nĩwe mũmena-Kristũ: mũndũ ũcio nĩakaanaga Ithe o na Mũriũ.
23 Everyone who is denying the Son neither the Father has he; The [one] confessing the Son also the Father has.
Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũkaanaga Mũriũ ũkĩrĩ na Ithe witũ; ũrĩa wothe uumbũraga Mũriũ arĩ na Ithe o nake.
24 You yourselves (therefore *K) what you have heard from [the] beginning in you should abide. If in you shall abide what from [the] beginning you have heard, also you yourselves in the Son and in the Father will abide.
Mwĩmenyererei nĩguo ũndũ ũrĩa mũrĩkĩtie kũigua kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria ũikarage thĩinĩ wanyu. Ũndũ ũcio ũngĩikara thĩinĩ wanyu-rĩ, o na inyuĩ mũrĩikaraga thĩinĩ wa Mũriũ, o na mũrĩ thĩinĩ wa Ithe.
Na ũndũ ũyũ nĩguo atwĩrĩire: o muoyo wa tene na tene. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things I have written to you concerning those leading astray you.
Ndĩramwandĩkĩra maũndũ maya makoniĩ ũhoro wa andũ arĩa marageria kũmũhĩtithia.
27 And you yourselves, the anointing that you received from Him abides in you and not need you have that anyone may teach you; But just as the (same *N+kO) anointing teaches you concerning all things and true is and not is a lie and even as it has taught you, (you abide *N+kO) in Him.
Na inyuĩ-rĩ, maguta marĩa mwahakirwo nĩwe-rĩ, megũtũũra thĩinĩ wanyu, na mũtibatairio nĩ mũndũ o na ũ wa kũmũruta ũhoro. No rĩrĩ, o ta ũrĩa ihaka rĩake rĩa maguta rĩmũrutaga ũhoro wa maũndũ mothe, na o ta ũrĩa rĩrĩ rĩa ma, na ti rĩa maheeni: o ta ũrĩa rĩmũrutĩĩte-rĩ, tũũrai thĩinĩ wake.
28 And now, little children, do abide in Him, so that (if *N+KO) He shall appear (we may have *N+kO) boldness and not may be ashamed before Him at the coming of Him.
Na rĩu, inyuĩ twana twakwa nyendete, kĩrĩrĩriai gũikara thĩinĩ wake nĩgeetha rĩrĩa akoonithanio tũgaakorwo tũrĩ na ũũmĩrĩru na tũtegũconoka mbere yake hĩndĩ ĩrĩa agooka.
29 If you know that righteous He is, you know that (also *no) everyone who is practicing the righteousness of Him has been begotten.
Angĩkorwo nĩmũũĩ atĩ we nĩ mũthingu, kĩmenyei atĩ mũndũ ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ marĩa magĩrĩire nĩaciarĩtwo nĩwe.
