1 C arruurtaydiiyey, waxaan waxyaalahan idiinku soo qorayaa si aydnaan u dembaabin; oo qof uun hadduu dembaabo, waxaynu xagga Aabbaha ku leennahay Dhexdhexaadiye, waana Ciise Masiix kan xaqa ah.

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;

2 O o isaguna wuxuu dembiyadeenna u yahay kafaaraggudka; oo kuweenna oo keliya uma aha ee weliba wuxuu u yahay dembiyada dunida oo dhan.

and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.

3 O o taas ayaynu ku garanaynaa inaynu naqaan isaga, haddaynu qaynuunnadiisa adkayno.

By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.

4 K an yidhaahda, Waan aqaan isaga, oo aan qaynuunnadiisa adkayn, waa beenaaleh, oo runtu kuma jirto isaga.

The one who says, “ I have come to know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

5 L aakiin kan ereygiisa adkeeya, runtii, Ilaah jacaylkiisu wuu ku dhan yahay isaga. Taas aynu ku garanaynaa inaynu isaga ku jirno.

but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him:

6 K an yidhaahda, Isagaan ku jiraa, waa inuu u socdaa siduu isagu u socday. Qaynuunka Cusub

the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.

7 G acaliyayaalow, qaynuun cusub idiin soo qori maayo, laakiin waxaan idiin soo qorayaa qaynuun hore oo aad tan iyo bilowgii haysateen. Qaynuunkii hore waa hadalkii aad bilowgii maqasheen.

Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

8 O o weliba qaynuun cusub ayaan idiin soo qorayaa, kaas oo isaga iyo idinkaba run idinku dhex ah, maxaa yeelay, gudcurku waa dhammaanayaa, oo nuurka runta ahuna imminkuu iftiimayaa.

On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining.

9 K an yidhaahda, Nuurkaan ku jiraa, oo walaalkiis neceb, wuxuu ku jiraa gudcurka ilaa imminkada.

The one who says he is in the Light and yet hates his brother is in the darkness until now.

10 K an walaalkii jecel, nuurkuu ku jiraa, oo wax lagu xumaado kuma jiro isaga.

The one who loves his brother abides in the Light and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

11 L aakiin kan walaalkii neceb, gudcurkuu ku jiraa, oo gudcurkuu ku socdaa, oo garan maayo meeshuu marayo, waayo, gudcurkaa indhihiisa tiray.

But the one who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

12 W ax baan idiin soo qorayaa, carruurtiiyey, maxaa yeelay, dembiyadiinnii waa laydinka cafiyey magiciisa aawadiis.

I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name’s sake.

13 A abbayaashow, wax baan idiin soo qorayaa, maxaa yeelay, waad garanaysaan kan tan iyo bilowgii jira. Ragga dhallinyarada ahow, wax baan idiin soo qorayaa, maxaa yeelay, idinku kan sharka ah ayaad ka adkaateen. Carruurtaydiiyey, wax baan idiin soo qoray, maxaa yeelay, Aabbaha waad garanaysaan.

I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.

14 A abbayaashow, wax baan idiin soo qoray, maxaa yeelay, waad garanaysaan kan tan iyo bilowgii jira. Ragga dhallinyarada ahow, wax baan idiin soo qoray, maxaa yeelay, waad xoog weyn tihiin, oo ereyga Ilaah baa idinku jira, oo kan sharka ah ayaad ka adkaateen.

I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one. Do Not Love the World

15 D unida iyo waxyaalaha dunida ku jira toona ha jeclaanina. Qof uun hadduu dunida jeclaado, jacaylka Aabbuhu kuma jiro isaga.

Do not love the world nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16 M axaa yeelay, waxaa dunida ku jira oo dhan oo ah damaca jidhka, iyo damaca indhaha, iyo faanka nolosha, xagga Aabbaha kama yimaadaan ee waxay ka yimaadaan xagga dunida.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.

17 O o duniduna way idlaanaysaa, iyo damaceeduba; laakiin kan doonista Ilaah yeelaa wuu jirayaa weligiis. Ka-digidda Kuwa Masiixa Ka Geesta Ah

The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.

18 C arruurtiiyey, waa saacaddii u dambaysay, oo sidaad maqasheen inuu kan Masiixa ka geesta ahi imanayo, weliba imminka kuwa badan oo Masiixa ka gees ah ayaa kacay, taa aawadeed ayaynu ku garanaynaa inay saacaddii u dambaysay tahay.

Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have appeared; from this we know that it is the last hour.

19 W ay inaga baxeen, laakiin kuweennii ma ay ahayn; hadday kuweennii ahaayeen, way inala joogi lahaayeen; laakiin way inaga baxeen oo taasaa caddaynaysa inaanay kulligood inaga mid ahayn.

They went out from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have remained with us; but they went out, so that it would be shown that they all are not of us.

20 L aakiin idinku waxaad leedihiin subkid ka timid Kan Quduuska ah, oo wax walba waad taqaaniin.

But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all know.

21 W ixii aan idiin soo qoray uma aan soo qorin aqoonla'aantiinna xagga runta aawadeed, laakiin waxaan u soo qoray aqoonta aad runta taqaaniin iyo inaanay beenina runta ka iman aawadood.

I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it, and because no lie is of the truth.

22 W aa kuma beenaaluhu, kan dafira inuu Ciise yahay Masiixa mooyaane? Isagu waa kan Masiixa ka geesta ah, waana kan dafira Aabbaha iyo Wiilkaba.

Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.

23 K u alla kii Wiilka inkiraa, ma leh Aabbaha; laakiin kan Wiilka qirtaa Aabbuhuu leeyahay.

Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also.

24 H addaba idinku waxaad tan iyo bilowgii maqlayseen ha idinku sii jiro. Haddii wixii aad tan iyo bilowgii maqlayseen idinku sii jiro, idinkuna waxaad ku sii jiri doontaan Wiilka iyo Aabbaha.

As for you, let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. The Promise Is Eternal Life

25 O o kanu waa ballankii uu inoogu ballanqaaday oo ah nolosha weligeed ah.

This is the promise which He Himself made to us: eternal life.

26 W axaan idiin soo qoray waxyaalahan ku saabsan kuwa idin khiyaanaynaya.

These things I have written to you concerning those who are trying to deceive you.

27 S ubkidda aad ka hesheen isaga way idinku sii jirtaa; oo uma baahnidin in cidina wax idin barto; laakiin sida subkiddiisu wax walba idiin barto, oo ay run u tahay, beenna aanay u ahayn, waa inaad siday wax idiin bartay ugu sii jirtaan.

As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.

28 O o imminka, carruurtiiyey, ku sii jira isaga; in kolkuu muuqdo aynu kalsoonaan doonno oo aynaan wakhtiga imaatinkiisa ka xishoonin inaynu hor tagno.

Now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming.

29 H addaad og tihiin inuu xaq yahay, waxaad weliba ogaataan in mid walba oo xaqnimo falaa uu isaga ka dhashay.

If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone also who practices righteousness is born of Him.
