Introduction to 1 John
2 POY Ukomu ayu pakalawiriti twenga tumuwoniti na tutakula visoweru vyakuwi na kuwabwelera ukomu ayu gwa mashaka goseri, yakaweriti kwa Tati na kalanguziyitwi kwa twenga. 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 POY Tuwabwelera mwenga shilii shatushiwoniti na kushipikinira, su mwenga mpati kutenda pamuhera natwenga muwumu yatuwera nagu na Tati na Mwana gwakuwi Yesu Kristu. 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 POY Twankuwalembera vitwatira avi su nemeleru ya twenga imalilika. BSB BSB: We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 POY Su ujumbi yatuwupikaniriti kwakuwi na yatuwabwelera mwenga kuwera Mlungu ndo ulangala na kwakuwi kwahera luwindu nakamu. 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 POY Patulonga kuwera twana uwumu nayomberi na uganu patugendagenda muluwindu, twenga tupaya na matendu getu ganakaka ndiri. BSB BSB: If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 POY Kumbiti patugendagenda muulangala gambira Mlungu ntambu yakalikala muulangala, su hatuweri na umu twaweni gweka na mwazi gwakuwi Yesu Kristu, Mwana gwakuwi, gwankutupunga vidoda vyoseri. 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 POY Kumbiti patuleka vidoda vyatutenda, yomberi ndo mwaminika na muheri mashaka goseri, hakatulekiziyi vidoda vyetu na kutupunga ukondola woseri. 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 POY Patutakula kuwera tutenda ndiri vidoda, hatumtendi Mlungu kuwera mpayira na shisoweru shakuwi kwahera mngati mwetu. BSB BSB: If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
