Introduction to 1 John
2 DAO Acuna xünnak hmuh theia a thawn law üng mi hmu pängki. Pa Pamhnam am atänga ve khawi lü mi veia ngdang lawki, acuna angsäi xünnaka mawng cun nami veia pyen lü kami ning jah mtheh law pängki. 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 DAO Keimi cun Pa Pamhnam ja a Capa Jesuh Khritaw am kami nglawiei pängki he. Keimi am nami nglawiei law hnga vai ua, kami hmuh ja kami ngjak naküt kami ning jah mtheh lawkie ni. 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 DAO Kami jekyainak a kümbe vaia ahin hin kami ning jah yuk law u ni. BSB BSB: We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 DAO A Cakpa üngkhyüh naw kami ngjaka thang kami sang hin ta: Pamhnam cun akvai ni, ani üng anghmüpnak isüm am ve. 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 DAO Pamhnam am kami nglawieiki ni ti lü, anghmüpnaka mi umei ham üng ta, mi ngthukhyü ja mi awmih üng mi hleihlak mi mdanki ni. BSB BSB: If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 DAO Ani akvai üng a xünga mäiha mimi pi akvai üng mi xüng üng ta, mat ja mat mi nglawieikie ni. A cakpa Jesuha thisen naw mi mkhyekat naküt jah mcimcaih petki ni. 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 DAO Cunüngpi, mi mkhyekat naküt Pamhnama veia mi ng’anei üng ta, a khyütam mä na lü akcang pawh khai. Mi mkhyenak naküt jah mhlätei lü mi pawh mkhye naküt jah mcimcaih pet khai. 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 DAO Mi mkhyenak am ve mi ti üng ta, Pamhnam cun ak’hleia mi pawh lü a ngthu mi k’uma am veki ni. BSB BSB: If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
