Introduction to 1 John
2 MGV Pagwapitila womi we hogu tugubweni na henu tulongale lijambu laki nu kumpwagi mwanganya lijambu la womi we hogu wa yaka petapeta. Jombi jwabii kwa Atati na henu jwahikiki kwitu. 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 MGV Setwikibweni nu kujoa ndi setundandi mwanganya, ili mwanganya nhwesa kujongana na twepani mu kujongana kotubii naku na Atati na Mwana waki Yesu Kilisitu. 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 MGV Tunhandaki mwanganya majambu haga ili kutogule kwitu kujaganinya. BSB BSB: We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 MGV Ndienu, majambu gatwagajoini kwaka Yesu na gatunndandila ndi ganga: Sapanga ndi unang'anu na ngaselubii lwii lwokapi nkati jaki. 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 MGV Ana tupwagiki tujongana na Sapanga na koni tuhenga mahengu giliya gaguge ngati kutama palwii, ndienu twibiya tulonge isoli wala ngasetuhenga lelibii lu usakaka kwa malobi na mahengu. BSB BSB: If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 MGV Lakini ana tutami mu unang'anu, ngati jombi hejubii mu unang'anu, ndienu twibiya tujongana twabeti na twabeti, na mwai waka Yesu, Mwana waka Sapanga utunyambisa mahakau goti. 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 MGV Lakini ana tupwagiki kwaka Sapanga tutendiki mahakau, ndienu Sapanga ndi juhobaleka na jo jujetakeka, najombi jatulekakiya mahakau gitu nu kutunyambisa ubaja woti. 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 MGV Ana tupwagiki ngase tuhengiki mahakau, twibiya tunhengiki Sapanga julonge isoli, ni lilobi laki ngaselibii nkati jitu. BSB BSB: If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
