¹Murhe shave, ramov tumenge kadala dieli, saxke te na keren bezexa; numa te shubisailo vari kon ai te kerdia bezex, si amen iek ablakato le Dadesa, O Jesus Kristo.

¹My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor Greek Parakleton: Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, and Comforter. with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous.

²Wo kai si ferdi vorta le Devlesa. Ke O Jesus Kristo si kodo kai mulo po trushul pala amare bezexa te avena iertime, ai na ferdi amare bezexa, numa le bezexa le manushenge.

²And he is the atoning sacrifice “atoning sacrifice” is from the Greek “hilasmos,” an appeasing, propitiating, or the means of appeasement or propitiation—the sacrifice that turns away God’s wrath because of our sin. for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.

³Te kerasa so mothol amenge le sicharimos le Devleske, antunchi zhanas ke zhanas le Devles.

³This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.

⁴Numa te mothola vari kon, ke zhanel le Devles, ai te na kerela so mothol le sicharimata le Devleske, kodo manush xoxavel ai o chachimos nai ande leste.

⁴One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him.

⁵Numa o manush kai kerel so mothol E Vorba le Devleski, sikavel ke chaches drago leske o Del, kadia si sar te zhanas ke traiisaras le Devlesa.

⁵But whoever keeps his word, God’s love has most certainly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him:

⁶Kodo kai mothol ke traiil le Devlesa, trobul te traiil sar traiisardia o Kristo.

⁶he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.

⁷Murhe kuchi phral, "Chi ramov tumenge ek nevo zakono, sa o phurano zakono si kai sas tume dino de anda gor. Ai kado zakono o phurano si e Vorba kai vunzhe ashundian.

⁷Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.

⁸Numa, ek nevo zakono ramov tumenge, ai lesko chachimos sikadiol ando Kristo ai vi ande tumende. Ke o tuniariko zhaltar, ai e chachi vediara vunzhe strefial.

⁸Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shines.

⁹Kodo kai mothol ke traiil ande vediara, ai kai si leske gratsa lesko phral, inker ando tuniariko.

⁹He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now.

¹⁰Numa kodo kai si leske drago lesko phral traiil ande vediara, ai kadia nai kanchi ande leste kai peravel avre manushes ando bezex.

¹⁰He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him.

¹¹Numa kodo kai nai leske drago lesko phral ando tuniariko lo, ai ando tuniariko phirel, ai chi zhanel kai zhal, ke o tuniariko korhardia les.

¹¹But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and doesn’t know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

¹²Me ramov tumenge, murhe shave, ke tumare bezexa iertime le pala anav le Kristosko.

¹²I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake.

¹³Ramov tumenge, le dadenge, ke zhanen kodoles kai si de anda gor. Ramov tumenge, le ternenge, ke nirisardian le benges. Ai ramov tumenge, le shavenge, ke zhanen le Dades.

¹³I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you know the Father.

¹⁴Ramosardem tumenge, le dadenge, ke zhanen kodoles kai si de anda gor. Ramosardem tumenge, le ternenge, ke zurale san; ai e Vorba le Devleski traiil ande tumende, ai tume nirisardian le benges.

¹⁴I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

¹⁵Trobul te na avel tumenge drago e lumia ai chi le dieli kai si ande lumia. Ke kodo kai si leske drago e lumia, e dragostia le Devleski nai ande leste.

¹⁵Don’t love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him.

¹⁶Ke so godi si ande lumia, le ginduria le bi vuzhe kai si le statos, ai le dieli kai amare iakha dikhas ai mangas, ai le barimata kai kerdion katar le dieli la lumiake, nai katar O Dat, numa katar e lumia.

¹⁶For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s.

¹⁷Ai e lumia si te nakhel ai so godi arakhen le manush pe late, numa kodo kai kerel so mangel O Del traiila sagda.

¹⁷The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.

¹⁸Murhe shave, e vriama kai si te avel O Kristo pashol ai ashundian ke o xoxamlo Kristo si te avel; ai vunzhe but xoxamle kristuria avile; No ame zhanas ke sigo vriama si e avel O Kristo.

¹⁸Little children, these are the end times, and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour.

¹⁹Kodola duzhmaia le Kristoske nas chaches anda amare, anda kodia won mekle ame. Ke te avilino anda amare, won sas te beshen amensa. Numa won mekle ame saxke te zhangliolpe mishto ke chi iek anda lende nas chaches anda amare.

¹⁹They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us.

²⁰Numa tumen sas dino O Swunto Duxo katar kodo kai si Swunto, anda kodia tume savorhe zhanen o chachimos.

²⁰You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge. Or, “know what is true.” Or, “know all things.”

²¹Chi ramosardem tumenge, ke chi zhanen o chachimos, numa ke zhanen o chachimos, ai vi zhanen ke chi iek xoxaimos nashti avel katar o chachimos.

²¹I have not written to you because you don’t know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.

²²Kon si xoxamlo? Kodo si kai mothol ke O Jesus nai O Kristo. Ai wo si o xoxamlo Kristo, kai chi mangel chi le Dades ai chi le Shaves.

²²Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.

²³Ke kodo kai chi mangel le Shaves, chi mangel chi le Dades; numa kodo kai premil le Shaves, premil vi le Dades.

²³Whoever denies the Son, the same doesn’t have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.

²⁴Anda kodia, garaven mishto ande tumare ile e lashi viasta kai ashundian de anda gor. Ke te garavena ande tumare ile so ashundian de anda gor, traiin vi tume andek than le Shavesa ai le Dadesa.

²⁴Therefore, as for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father.

²⁵Ai eta so shinadia O Kristo, ke del ame o traio kai chi mai getolpe.

²⁵This is the promise which he promised us, the eternal life.

²⁶Me ramov tumenge kado divano saxke te arakhen tume katar kodola kai roden te rimon tume.

²⁶These things I have written to you concerning those who would lead you astray.

²⁷Ai den tume goji ke lian katar O Kristo O Swunto Duxo kai traiil ande tumende, ai chi trobul te sicharel tume khonik. O Swunto Duxo le Kristosko kai si ande tumende sicharel tume so godi trobul te zhanen, ai O Swunto Duxo o chachimos sicharel tume, na o xoxaimos. Keren so mothol tumenge O Swunto Duxo, ai beshen astarde ka Kristo.

²⁷As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him.

²⁸Ai akana, murhe shave, beshen astarde ka Kristo, saxke te avas pherdo pachamos kana avela, ai na te avel amenge lazhav angla leste o dies kai avela.

²⁸Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

²⁹Tume zhanen ke O Kristo vorta lo; trobul vi tume te zhanen, ke kon godi kerel si si vorta. Wo si shav Devlesko.

²⁹If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of him.
