1 W axaannu idiin soo qoraynaa wax ku saabsan wixii tan iyo bilowgii jiray, oo aannu maqalnay, oo aannu indhahayaga ku aragnay, oo aannu eegnay, oo ay gacmahayagu taabteen oo Ereyga nolosha ah.

¶ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life

2 N olosha waa la muujiyey, oo waannu aragnay, waanan u marag furaynaa, oo waxaannu idiinka warramaynaa nolosha weligeed ah, ta Aabbaha la jirtay oo lanoo muujiyey.

(for the life is manifested, and we also saw it and bear witness and show unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father and appeared unto us);

3 W ixii aannu aragnay oo aannu maqalnay ayaannu idiinka warramaynaa, si aad idinkuna noo soo wehelisaan; oo wehelnimadeennu waa mid la jirta Aabbaha iyo Wiilkiisa Ciise Masiix ah.

that which we have seen and heard we declare unto you, that ye also may have communion with us; and truly our communion is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

4 O o waxaannu waxyaalahan idiinku soo qoraynaa si ay farxaddiinnu u buuxsanto. Ilaah Waa Nuur

And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be fulfilled.

5 W arkii aannu ka maqalnay oo aan idiinka warramayno wuxuu yahay, in Ilaah nuur yahay, oo isaga aan gudcur ku jirin innaba.

¶ This then is the promise which we have heard of him and declare unto you, That God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

6 H addaynu nidhaahno, Wehelnimo ayaynu la wadaagnaa isaga, oo aynu gudcurka ku soconno, been baynu sheegnaa, oo runta ma falno.

If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth;

7 L aakiin haddaynu nuurka ku soconno siduu isaguba nuurka ugu jiro, wehelnimo ayaynu isla wada wadaagnaa, oo dhiigga Ciise, oo Wiilkiisa ah, wuxuu inaga nadiifiyaa dembi oo dhan.

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have communion with him in the midst of us, and the blood of Jesus Christ, his Son cleanses us from all sin.

8 H addaynu nidhaahno, Dembi ma lihin, nafsaddeenna ayaynu khiyaanaynaa, oo runtuna inaguma jirto.

¶ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and there is no truth in us.

9 H addaynu dembiyadeenna qiranno, isagu waa aamin iyo caaddil inuu dembiyadeenna inaga cafiyo, oo uu inaga nadiifiyo xaqdarrada oo dhan.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10 H addaynu nidhaahno, Ma aynu dembaabin, waxaynu Ilaah ka dhignaa beenaaleh, oo ereygiisa inaguma jiro.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
