1 Johani 3
1 Tarirai kuti rudo rwakadini Baba rwavakatipa, kuti tinzi vana vaMwari. Nekuda kwaizvozvi nyika haitizivi, nokuti haina kumuziva iye.
Ἴδετε ποταπὴν ἀγάπην δέδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ πατήρ, ἵνα τέκνα θεοῦ κληθῶμεν, καί ἐσμεν. διὰ τοῦτο ὁ κόσμος οὐ γινώσκει ἡμᾶς, ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνω αὐτόν.
2 Vadikanwi, ikozvino tiri vana vaMwari, uye zvichigere kuratidzwa kuti tichazovei. Asi tinoziva kuti kana achizoratidzwa, tichafanana naye; nokuti tichamuona sezvaakaita.
Ἀγαπητοί, νῦν τέκνα θεοῦ ἐσμεν, καὶ οὔπω ἐφανερώθη τί ἐσόμεθα· οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐὰν φανερωθῇ, ὅμοιοι αὐτῷ ἐσόμεθα, ὅτι ὀψόμεθα αὐτὸν καθώς ἐστιν.
3 Uye umwe neumwe ane tariro iyi maari anozvichenesa, sezvaakachena iye.
καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἔχων τὴν ἐλπίδα ταύτην ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ ἁγνίζει ἑαυτὸν καθὼς ἐκεῖνος ἁγνός ἐστιν.
4 Umwe neumwe anoita chivi anoitawo kusava nemurairo; uye chivi ndiko kusava nemurairo.
πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν καὶ τὴν ἀνομίαν ποιεῖ, καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία.
5 Uye munoziva kuti iye wakaratidzwa kuti abvise zvivi zvedu; uye zvivi hazvimo maari.
καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ἐφανερώθη ἵνα τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἄρῃ, καὶ ἁμαρτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν.
6 Ani nani anogara maari haatadzi; ani nani anotadza haana kumuona, kana kumuziva.
πᾶς ὁ ἐν αὐτῷ μένων οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει· πᾶς ὁ ἁμαρτάνων οὐχ ἑώρακεν αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἔγνωκεν αὐτόν.
7 Vana vadiki, kusava neanokunyengerai; uyo anoita kururama wakarurama, saiye akarurama;
τεκνία, μηδεὶς πλανάτω ὑμᾶς· ὁ ποιῶν τὴν δικαιοσύνην δίκαιός ἐστιν, καθὼς ἐκεῖνος δίκαιός ἐστιν.
8 uyo anoita chivi anobva kuna dhiabhorosi, nokuti dhiabhorosi anotadza kubva pakutanga. Nechikonzero ichi Mwanakomana waMwari wakaratidzwa kuti aparadze mabasa adhiabhorosi.
ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐκ τοῦ διαβόλου ἐστίν, ὅτι ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς ὁ διάβολος ἁμαρτάνει. εἰς τοῦτο ἐφανερώθη ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ, ἵνα λύσῃ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ διαβόλου.
9 Ani nani wakaberekwa naMwari haaiti chivi, nokuti mbeu yake inogara maari; zvino haagoni kutadza, nokuti wakaberekwa naMwari.
πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἁμαρτίαν οὐ ποιεῖ, ὅτι σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει· καὶ οὐ δύναται ἁμαρτάνειν, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ γεγέννηται.
10 Mune izvozvi vana vaMwari nevana vadhiabhorosi vanoratidzwa; ani nani asingaiti zvakarurama haabvi kuna Mwari, neasingadi hama yake.
ἐν τούτῳ φανερά ἐστιν τὰ τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα τοῦ διαβόλου. πᾶς ὁ μὴ ποιῶν δικαιοσύνην οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ·
11 Nokuti iri ndiro shoko ramakanzwa kubva pakutanga, kuti tidanane;
ὅτι αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγγελία ἣν ἠκούσατε ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς, ἵνα ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους·
12 kwete saKaini wakabva kune wakaipa, ndokuuraya munin'ina wake. Zvino wakamuurayirei? Nokuti mabasa ake akange akaipa, asi emunin'ina wake akange akarurama.
οὐ καθὼς Κάϊν ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ ἦν, καὶ ἔσφαξεν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ χάριν τίνος ἔσφαξεν αὐτόν; ὅτι τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ πονηρὰ ἦν, τὰ δὲ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ δίκαια.
13 Musashamisika, hama dzangu, kana nyika ichikuvengai.
Μὴ θαυμάζετε, ἀδελφοί, εἰ μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος.
14 Isu tinoziva kuti takapfuura murufu tikapinda muupenyu, nokuti tinoda hama. Asingadi hama anogara murufu.
ἡμεῖς οἴδαμεν ὅτι μεταβεβήκαμεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν, ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τοὺς ἀδελφούς· ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν μένει ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ.
15 Ani nani anovenga hama yake imhondi; uye munoziva kuti hakutongorina mhondi ine upenyu husingaperi hunogara mairi. (aiōnios g166)
πᾶς ὁ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, ἀνθρωποκτόνος ἐστίν· καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι πᾶς ἀνθρωποκτόνος οὐκ ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἐν αὐτῷ μένουσαν. (aiōnios g166)
16 Neizvi tinoziva rudo rwaMwari, nokuti iye wakatiradzikira pasi upenyu hwake; nesu tinofanira kuradzikira pasi hama upenyu.
ἐν τούτῳ ἐγνώκαμεν τὴν ἀγάπην, ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἔθηκεν· καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν τὰς ψυχὰς θεῖναι.
17 Asi ani nani ane nhumbi dzenyika, uye achiona hama yake ichishaiwa, ndokumupfigira tsitsi dzake, rudo rwaMwari rwunogara sei maari?
ὃς δ᾽ ἂν ἔχῃ τὸν βίον τοῦ κόσμου, καὶ θεωρῇ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ χρείαν ἔχοντα καὶ κλείσῃ τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, πῶς ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐν αὐτῷ;
18 Vana vangu vadiki, ngatirege kuda pashoko kana parurimi, asi pazviito nepachokwadi.
τεκνία, μὴ ἀγαπῶμεν λόγῳ μηδὲ τῇ γλώσσῃ, ἀλλὰ ἐν ἔργῳ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ.
19 Uye neizvi tinoziva kuti tiri vechokwadi, uye tichavimbisa moyo yedu pamberi pake.
[καὶ] ἐν τούτῳ γνωσόμεθα ὅτι ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας ἐσμέν, καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πείσομεν τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν·
20 Nokuti kana moyo wedu uchitipa mhosva, Mwari mukuru kumoyo wedu, uye anoziva zvinhu zvese.
ὅτι ἐὰν καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν ἡ καρδία, ὅτι μείζων ἐστὶν ὁ θεὸς τῆς καρδίας ἡμῶν καὶ γινώσκει πάντα.
21 Vadikanwi, kana moyo wedu usingatipi mhosva, tine chivimbo pamberi paMwari;
ἀγαπητοί, ἐὰν ἡ καρδία μὴ καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν, παῤῥησίαν ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν θεόν,
22 uye chipi nechipi chatinokumbira, tinogamuchira kubva kwaari, nokuti tinochengeta mirairo yake, uye tinoita zvinhu zvinofadza pamberi pake.
καὶ ὃ ἐὰν αἰτῶμεν λαμβάνομεν ἀπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, ὅτι τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηροῦμεν καὶ τὰ ἀρεστὰ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ποιοῦμεν.
23 Uye uyu ndiwo murairo wake, kuti titende kuzita reMwanakomana wake Jesu Kristu, uye tidanane, sezvaakatipa murairo.
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ, ἵνα πιστεύωμεν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους, καθὼς ἔδωκεν ἐντολὴν ἡμῖν.
24 Uye uyo anochengeta mirairo yake anogara maari, naiye maari. Neizviwo tinoziva kuti anogara matiri, kubva paMweya waakatipa.
καὶ ὁ τηρῶν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει, καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν αὐτῷ. καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι μένει ἐν ἡμῖν, ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος οὗ ἡμῖν ἔδωκεν.
