Introduction to 1 John
2 BSJ dumeu lan fwetanco, bon warker nyon yi kom fulen kerero kwatti diiriyeu, wuro ki no teenmeu lan kwa dir cer BSB BSB: And this is the life that was revealed; we have seen it and testified to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was revealed to us.
3 BSJ wuro nyo to nya nuwa nya kwa dir cer, na kom mwerkang dor kange nyo, mwer kan ka duwek beko ki no kange teeu kange bi bwece Yeecu Almacifu BSB BSB: We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And this fellowship of ours is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ.
4 BSJ nyo nya mulanng kumen dike buroti na for neerer nyero na dim BSB BSB: We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 BSJ wonco tanmange nyanuwa fiye co wiyeu, nya kwa dircer kumene kwama filang, kum tacili mani cinen bi duware ce, BSB BSB: And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you: God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.
6 BSJ na bo ki bo mwerkang dor ti kange co, la boya yamti mor kumtaciliri, bo ki cwerke, mani bo ma bilenkerti BSB BSB: If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 BSJ nobi ya yam bo ti mor filange na wo co mor filange, bo mwekang dor ti bwiti be bwiyal bi bwece Yeecu nirom bwirano ker bero gwang BSB BSB: But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
9 BSJ la na bo tok bwirankerer berori con nii cini, nii cak cake, wo a cutang binen bwiran kerer bero tiyeu, na nirum bo mor bweni cakcakeu, BSB BSB: If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 BSJ na bo ki ba ma bo bwiran kere di bon tu con nii cwerke ker cero mani BSB BSB: If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
