Introduction to 1 John
2 ISN Nu uwo u upanga ai witumilwe kukumuka ng'walye, hangi kuihengile, nu ku uloeela, nu kuatanantilya u upanga nua kali na kali, naza ukoli kung'wa Tata hangi ai uzepigwe kukumuka kitaitu. 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 ISN Iko nai kukihengile nu kigiilya kuukitanantya kitalanyu ga. iti kina muhume ki hanguila palung'wi nu sese, nu muhangu nu itu palung'wi nu Tata nu Ng'wana nuakwe u Yesu Kilisto. 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 ISN Hangi kumukilisilye i makani aya unyenye iti kina iloeelya ni litu litule likondile. BSB BSB: We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 ISN Uwu wuwo ulagiiligwa nai kuigulye kupuma kitalakwe nu kumutanantilya; Itunda ingi welu nu mukati akwe kutili i kiti ga ni kiniino. 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 ISN Anga kuligitye kina kukete muhangu nu ng'wenso hangi kigendaa mu kiti, kuukongela hangi shanga kuituma itai. BSB BSB: If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 ISN Kuiti kuzegenda mu welu anga nu ili mu welu, kihanguie sese ku sese, ni sakami ang'wa Yesu Kilisto. ng'wana nuakwe ikelyaa kupuma milandu ihi. 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 ISN Kuiti anga kile itunu ku milandu itu. Nuanso ingi muhuiili ni tai ane kuulekela i milandu itu nu kuelya nu ubii wihi. 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 ISN Anga kuligitye kina kukili kituma imilandu, kuumutendya nuanso kutula muteele, nu lukani nu lakwe lukutile mukati itu. BSB BSB: If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
