1Murhe vortacha, na pachan sa kodolen kai mothon ke si le O Swunto Duxo, numa zumaven le te dikhen te si kodo duxo katar O Del. Ke but xoxamle profeturia avile ande lumia.
1Beloved, every spirit believe not, but prove the spirits, if of God they are, because many false prophets have gone forth to the world;
2Numa eta sar zhanena te si O Swunto Duxo le Devlesko: ke kon godi mothola ke O Jesus Kristo avilo ande lumia sar iek manush, kodo si les O Swunto Duxo le Devlesko.
2in this know ye the Spirit of God; every spirit that doth confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is,
3Numa kon godi mothola ke O Jesus Kristo chi avilo ande lumia sar iek manush nai les O Swunto Duxo kai avel katar O Del. Numa o duxo le duzhmanosko (xoxamlo kristo) si katar o duzhmano le Kristosko, ke tume ashundian pa kodo duzhmano (xoxamlo kristo) ke trobulas te avel, numa akana vunzhe avilo ande lumia.
3and every spirit that doth not confess Jesus Christ in the flesh having come, of God it is not; and this is that of the antichrist, which ye heard that it doth come, and now in the world it is already.
4Numa tume, murhe shave, le Devleske san, ai nirisardian pe le xoxamle profeton, ke O Swunto Duxo kai si ande tumende mai zuralo lo de sar o duxo kai si ande kodola kai si ande lumia.
4Ye — of God ye are, little children, and ye have overcome them; because greater is He who [is] in you, than he who is in the world.
5Won la lumiake le, anda kodia den duma sar e lumia, ai e lumia ashunel lende.
5They — of the world they are; because of this from the world they speak, and the world doth hear them;
6Numa ame le Devleske sam, ai kodo kai zhanel le Devles ashunel amende; numa kodo kai chi zhanel le Devles chi ashunel amende. Anda kadia, ame sai zhanas savo si O Duxo le chachimasko ai o duxo le xasarimasko.
6we — of God we are; he who is knowing God doth hear us; he who is not of God, doth not hear us; from this we know the spirit of the truth, and the spirit of the error.
7Murhe kuchi vortacha, trobul te avas drazhi iek kavreske, ke e dragostia avel katar O Del, kas godi si dragostia ando ilo wo si shav Devlesko, ai zhanel le Devles.
7Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God;
8Numa kodo kai nai les dragostia ando ilo, chi zhanel le Devles, ke O Del si dragostia.
8he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love.
9Ai O Del sikadia peski dragostia amenge ke tradia peske ieke Shaves ande lumia, saxke pala leste te avel amen o traio.
9In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son — the only begotten — hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him;
10Ai e dragostia si, na ke sas ame dragostia le Devleski, numa ke sas les dragostia amenge, ai tradia peske Shaves saxke pala leste amare bezexa te aven iertime.
10in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.
11Murhe vortacha, te samas kadia zurales drago le Devleske, iame trobul te avas drazhi iek kavreske.
11Beloved, if thus did God love us, we also ought one another to love;
12Khonik shoxar chi dikhlia le Devles; numa te avasa drazhi iek kavreske, O Del traiil ande amende, ai leski dragostia sikadiol vorta ande amende.
12God no one hath ever seen; if we may love one another, God in us doth remain, and His love is having been perfected in us;
13Ame zhanas ke traiisaras ando Del, ai ke O Del traiil ande amende, pala Swunto Duxo kai dia ame.
13in this we know that in Him we do remain, and He in us, because of His Spirit He hath given us.
14Ai ame dikhliam ai phenas ke O Dat tradia peske Shaves te avel O Skepitori la lumiako.
14And we — we have seen and do testify, that the Father hath sent the Son — Saviour of the world;
15Kodo kai mothol ke O Jesus si O Shav le Devlesko, O Del traiil ande leste, ai wo ando Del.
15whoever may confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God in him doth remain, and he in God;
16Ai ame zhanas e dragostia kai si le Devles amenge ai pachas ame.O Del si dragostia; ai kodo kai traiil ande dragostia traiil ando Del, ai O Del ande leste.
16and we — we have known and believed the love, that God hath in us; God is love, and he who is remaining in the love, in God he doth remain, and God in him.
17Te sikavel ke e dragostia chaches si ande amende, ke chi daras amaro ilo kana beshas angla leste po dies kai avela e kris le Devleski, ai ke traiisaras ande kadia lumia sar O Kristo traiisardia.
17In this made perfect hath been the love with us, that boldness we may have in the day of the judgment, because even as He is, we — we also are in this world;
18Nai dar ande dragostia. Ai e chachi dragostia gonil e dar. E dragostia nai chachi ande kodo kai daral, ke e dar kerel te gindis ke doshalo san.
18fear is not in the love, but the perfect love doth cast out the fear, because the fear hath punishment, and he who is fearing hath not been made perfect in the love;
19Numa drago amenge le Devles, ke sas leske drago amenge mai anglal.
19we — we love him, because He — He first loved us;
20"Drago mange le Devles." ai te si leske griatsa lesko phral, wo xoxavel. Ke kodo kai nai leske drago lesko phral kai dikhel les, sar sai avel leske drago O Del kai chi dikhel les?
20if any one may say — `I love God,` and his brother he may hate, a liar he is; for he who is not loving his brother whom he hath seen, God — whom he hath not seen — how is he able to love?
21Ai eta o zakono kai dia ame O Kristo: kodo kai si leske drago O Del trobul te avel leske drago vi lesko phral.
21and this [is] the command we have from Him, that he who is loving God, may also love his brother.
