1 Yochanan 3
1 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.
Kamubona lusuno lwa Bata. Lusuno lwakendi nilunene weco tukute kukwiweti bana ba Lesa
2 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.
Mobanse omwasunika tobana ba Lesa, nomba nkatucinshi moshitukabele. Nsombi tucinshi kwambeti Yesu akesa nitukaboneke mbuli ncabele pakwinga nitukamubone ncabele.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
Uliyense ukute lushomo ne kupembelela muli Yesu Klistu ukute kuliswepesha mwine mbuli ncabele Yesu kuswepa.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
Uliyense shikwipisha, ukute mulandu wakupwaya mulawo wa Lesa.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
Mucinshi kwambeti Yesu walesa akufunya bwipishi kayi muli endiye muliyawa bwipishi sobwe.
6 Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
Muntu uliyense uli muli Klistu nkakute kwipisha. Nomba uliyense lepishinga ekwambeti nkalamubonapo kayi nkamwinshi.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
Neco mobana bame kakutaba muntu nambi umo weshikumubepa, uliyense lenshinga byalulama, walulama mbuli Yesu ncalulama.
8 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.
Uliyense lenshinga byaipa uli kulubasu kwa Satana, pakwinga Satana ni wa bwipishi kufuma kumatatikilo. Weco Mwana Lesa walabonekela kwisa akononga milimo yaipa ya Satana.
9 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.
Uliyense mwana wa Lesa nkakute kupitilisha kwipisha sobwe pakwinga cimo ca Lesa cili muli endiye. Pakwinga Lesa ebaishi nkakute kupitilisha kwipisha.
10 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.
Lino kupusana kwa bana ba Lesa ne ba Satana ni uku. Uliyense utenshi byalulama kayi utasuni munendi nte mwana wa Lesa.
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
Mulumbe ngomwalanyumfwa pakutatika niwakwambeti tusunanenga.
12 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.
Katutaba mbuli Kaini, nendi walikuba kulubasu kwa Satana kayi walashina Abelo mukwabo. Nomba nicani Kaini walashina mukwabo? Pakwinga bintu nendi mbyalensa byalikuba byaipa, nsombi mukwabo walensa bintu byaina.
13 Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
Neco kamutasukama mobanse, bantu bapacishi capanshi pano bamupatanga.
14 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.
Afwe tucinshi kwambeti twalapulamo mulufu nekuya akwingila mubuyumi. Tucinshi pakwinga tusuni banse betu. Neco uliyense utasuni uli panshi pangofu sha lufu.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)
Uliyense lapatanga munendi niweshi kushina kayi mucinshi kwambeti kuliyawa shikushina ukute buyumi butapu. (aiōnios g166)
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
Yesu walayaba buyumi bwakendi pacebo canjafwe. Nenjafwe twelela kubenga buyumi bwetu pacebo ca banse betu.
17 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?
Nomba na mubile ubona munendi wapenga, nsombi ukana kumunyamfwa nkelela kwambeti nsuni Lesa sobwe.
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
Mobana bame, lusuno lwetu nkalwelela kubowa mukwamba nsombi twelela kuba ne lusuno lwancine ncine lweshi kubonekela mu minshilo.
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
Neco nitukenshibe kwambeti tuli mucakubinga kayi nicikatuyuminishe pamenso a Lesa.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
Na lwinshibo lwetu lulatutotekenganga, tukute kwinshibeti Lesa nimunene kupita myoyo yetu kayi nendi ucinshi bintu byonse.
21 Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
Mobanse omwasunika na myoyo yetu ilatutotekenga, ngatwimana pamenso a Lesa mwabuyowa.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
Kayi Lesa ngautupa cintu ciliconse ncotwela kumusenga, pakwinga tukute kukonka Milawo yakendi ne kwinsa bintu byeshi kumukondwelesha.
23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Yeshua the Messiah, and love one another, even as he commanded.
Lesa walatupa mulawo wakwambeti tushome mwanendi Yesu kayi ne kusunana mbuli Yesu ncalatwambila.
24 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.
Uliyense lakonkelenga Milawo ya Lesa, ukute kwikala muli Lesa, kayi nendi ukute kwikala muli endiye. Tucinshi kwambeti ukute kwikala mulinjafwe pacebo ca Mushimu Uswepa ngwalatupa.
