1 JOHANES 3

Anak-anak Dibata

1 Nehen uga kelengna ate Bapa man banta! Bage belinna kekelengenNa man banta seh maka kita igelari anak-anak Dibata. Janah labo gelar saja, tapi tuhu-tuhu me kita anak-anak Dibata. Enda me sabapna maka doni si jahat enda la nandai kita: sabap doni la nandai Dibata. t 2 O kam si kukelengi, kita enda genduari anak-anak Dibata, tapi kuga kita pagi, langa ipetangkas man banta. Tapi sieteh maka kenca pagi reh Kristus, bali me kita ras Ia, sabap siidah me Ia bagi si tuhu-tuhuna.

3 Kalak si bagenda pengarapenna nandangi Kristus, ijagana bana gelah tetap bersih i bas dosa-dosa nari, bali ras Kristus pe bersih i bas dosa nari.
4 Kalak si erbahan dosa, ilanggarna pe perentah Dibata, sabap dosa e me ngelanggar perentah Dibata. 5 Itehndu maka Kristus enggo reh ku doni enda guna ngangkut dosa manusia, janah Ia jine la erdosa. t

6 Jadi kerina kalak si nggeluh i bas persadan ras Kristus lanai iteruskenna erbahan dosa; tapi si terus erbahan dosa, langa idahna Kristus ntah pe langa itandaina Ia.
7 O anak-anakku, ola pelepas ise pe mabai kam papak! Kalak si ngelakoken si ngena ate Dibata asalna i bas Dibata nari, bali ras Kristus pe asalna i bas Dibata nari.

8 Tapi kalak si terus erbahan dosa ia sikerajangen Iblis kap, sabap Iblis e erdosa mula-mula nari kin. Anak Dibata reh ku doni enda guna engkernepken pendahin Iblis.
9 Ise si enggo jadi anak Dibata la iteruskenna erbahan dosa, sabap biak Dibata lit i bas ia. Janah erkiteken Dibata kap Bapana, lanai banci iteruskenna erbahan dosa.

10 Enda me lainna anak-anak Dibata ras anak-anak Iblis: ise si la ngelakoken si ngena ate Dibata, ntah pe la ikelengina seninana ia labo anak Dibata.

Sikeleng-kelengen

12 Ola bagi Kain si jadi anak Iblis, agina pe ibunuhna. Engkai kin maka ibunuh Kain agina? E me erkiteken kai si ibahan Kain salah, janah kai si ibahan agina, rikutken si ngena ate Dibata. t
13 Jadi ola mamang atendu o senina-senina, adi nembeh ate bangsa doni enda man bandu.

14 Sieteh kap maka enggo sitadingken kematen janah lawes kita ku kegeluhen; si enda sieteh perbahan keleng ateta seninanta. Kalak si la erkeleng ate, tandana ia tetap denga i teruh kuasa kematen. t
15 Kalak si nembeh atena seninana, pemunuh kap. Janah ietehndu maka kalak pemunuh la lit i bas ia kegeluhen si tuhu-tuhu si la erkeri-kerin. 16 Arah enda me sieteh kekelengen e: Kristus enggo ngendesken geluhNa man gunanta. E maka kita pe arus ngendesken geluhta guna seninanta. 17 Adi lit sekalak bayak idahna seninana kekurangen, tapi la atena mekuah man seninana e, kuga banci kalak si bage ngatakenca maka keleng atena Dibata?

18 O anak-anakku, kekelengenta ola terjeng biber saja ntah pe i bas cakap saja ngenca. Arus maka tuhu-tuhu kekelengenta e, si teridah arah perbahanenta.

Ketetapen ukur i lebe-lebe Dibata

1 John 3

1 (See what sort of love the Father has given to us: thatt we should be called God’s children – and indeedt we are!st For this reasont the world does not know us: because it did not know him.s2 Dear friends, we are God’s children now, and what we will bets has not yet been revealed. West know thatt whenevert itt is revealeds we will be like him, becauset we will see him just as he is.s

3 And everyone who has this hope focusedt on him purifiess himself, just as Jesust is pure).s
4 Everyone who practices sins also practices lawlessness;s indeed,t sin is lawlessness.5 And you know that Jesusts was revealed to take awayt sins, and in him there is no sin.6 Everyone who residest in him does not sin;ts everyone who sins has neither seen him nor known him.7 Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousnesss is righteous, just as Jesust is righteous.8 The one who practices sin is of the devil,s because the devil has been sinningt from the beginning. For this purposet the Son of God was revealed: to destroyt the works of the devil.9 Everyone who has been fatheredt by God does not practice sin,ts becauset God’st seedt resides in him, and thust he is not able to sin, because he has been fathered by God.

10 By thist the children of God and the children of the devil are revealed: Everyone who does not practice righteousness – the one who does not love his fellow Christiants – is not of God.

God Is Love, So We Must Love One Another

11 Fort this is the gospelt messaget that you have heard from the beginning: that we should love one another,s

12 not like Cains who was of the evil one and brutallyt murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his deeds were evil, but his brother’s were righteous.
13 Therefore do not be surprised, brothers and sisters,t if the world hates you.s14 We know thatt we have crossed overts from death to lifes becauset we love our fellow Christians.ts The one who does not love remains in death.s15 Everyone who hates his fellow Christiant is a murderer,s and you know that no murderer has eternal life residingt in him.16 We have come to know love by this:t that Jesust laid downs his life for us; thus we ought to lay down our lives for our fellow Christians.

17 But whoever has the world’s possessionsts and sees his fellow Christiant in need and shuts off his compassion against him, how can the love of Godts resides in such a person?s
18 Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue but in deed and truth.s19 And by thists we will know that we are of the truth and will convincet our consciencet in his presence,t20 thatt if our conscience condemnst us, thatt God is greater than our conscience and knows all things.21 Dear friends, if our conscience does not condemn us, we have confidence in the presence of God,22 andt whatever we ask we receive from him, becauset we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing to him.23 Nowt this is his commandment:ts that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he gaves us the commandment.

24 And the person who keeps his commandments residests in God,t and Godt in him. Now by thist we know that Godt resides in us: by the Spirit he has given us.
