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, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into 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.

²By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

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 who doesn’t confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God, and this is the spirit of the Antichrist, of whom you have heard that it comes. Now it is in the world 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.

⁴You are of God, little children, and 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 are of the world. Therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears 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 are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God doesn’t listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of 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, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.

⁸Numa kodo kai nai les dragostia ando ilo, chi zhanel le Devles, ke O Del si dragostia.

⁸He who doesn’t love doesn’t know God, for 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.

⁹By this God’s love was revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might 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 love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as 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.

¹¹Murhe vortacha, te samas kadia zurales drago le Devleske, iame trobul te avas drazhi iek kavreske.

¹¹Beloved, if God loved us in this way, we also ought to love one another.

¹²Khonik shoxar chi dikhlia le Devles; numa te avasa drazhi iek kavreske, O Del traiil ande amende, ai leski dragostia sikadiol vorta ande amende.

¹²No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love has been perfected in us.

¹³Ame zhanas ke traiisaras ando Del, ai ke O Del traiil ande amende, pala Swunto Duxo kai dia ame.

¹³By this we know that we remain in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

¹⁴Ai ame dikhliam ai phenas ke O Dat tradia peske Shaves te avel O Skepitori la lumiako.

¹⁴We have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as the Savior of the world.

¹⁵Kodo kai mothol ke O Jesus si O Shav le Devlesko, O Del traiil ande leste, ai wo ando Del.

¹⁵Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God remains in him, 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.

¹⁶We know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and he who remains in love remains in God, and God remains 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 love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we 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.

¹⁸There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

¹⁹Numa drago amenge le Devles, ke sas leske drago amenge mai anglal.

¹⁹We love him, because 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 a man says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who doesn’t love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

²¹Ai eta o zakono kai dia ame O Kristo: kodo kai si leske drago O Del trobul te avel leske drago vi lesko phral.

²¹This commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should also love his brother.
