1 Sione 5
1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him.
1KO IA ia ʻoku tui ko e Kalaisi ʻa Sisu, kuo fanauʻi ia ʻi he ʻOtua: pea ko ia fulipē ʻoku ʻofa kiate ia ʻoku ne fakatupu, ʻoku ʻofa foki ia kiate ia kuo tupu meiate ia.
2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.
2Ko eni ʻoku tau ʻilo ai ʻoku tau ʻofa ki he fānau ʻae ʻOtua, ʻi heʻetau ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, mo e fai ki heʻene ngaahi fekau.
3For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.
3He ko eni ʻae ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ko e tau fai ki heʻene ngaahi fekau: pea ʻoku ʻikai fakamamahi ʻa ʻene ngaahi fekau.
4For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
4He ko ia kotoa pē kuo fanauʻi ʻi he ʻOtua, ʻoku ne ikuna ʻa māmani: pea ko eni ʻae mālohi ʻoku ne ikuna ʻaki ʻa māmani, ko ʻetau tui.
5Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
5Ko hai ia ʻoku ne ikuna ʻa māmani, ka ko ia ʻoku tui ko e ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua ʻa Sisu?
6This is he who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not by the water only but by the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
6Ko eni ia naʻe haʻu ʻi he vai mo e toto, ʻa Sisu Kalaisi; ʻikai ʻi he vai pe, kae ʻi he vai mo e toto. Pea ʻoku fakamoʻoni ʻe he Laumālie, he ʻoku moʻoni ʻae Laumālie.
7For there are three that testify:
7He ʻoku ai ʻae toko tolu ʻi he langi ʻoku fakamoʻoni, ko e Tamai, mo e Folofola, pea mo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni: pea ʻoku taha pe ʻae toko tolu ni
8the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three agree.
8Pea ʻoku ai ʻae tolu ʻi māmani ʻoku fakamoʻoni, ko e Laumālie, mo e vai, pea mo e toto: pea ʻoku kau fakataha ʻae tolu ni.
9If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God that he has borne concerning his Son.
9Kapau ʻoku tau tali ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻoe tangata, ʻoku lahi hake ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻoe ʻOtua: he ko eni ʻae fakamoʻoni ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia kuo ne fakahā ki hono ʻAlo.
10Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son.
10Ko ia ʻoku tui ki he ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻiate ia pe ʻae fakamoʻoni: ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ke tui ki he ʻOtua, ʻoku ne lohiakiʻi ia; koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ke tui ia ki he fakamoʻoni ʻaia kuo fakahā ʻe he ʻOtua ki hono ʻAlo.
11And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
11Pea ko eni ʻae fakamoʻoni, kuo foaki ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae moʻui taʻengata kiate kitautolu, pea ko e moʻui ni ʻoku ʻi hono ʻAlo.
12Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
12Ko ia ʻoku ne maʻu ʻae ʻAlo, ʻoku ne maʻu mo e moʻui; pea ko ia ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻae ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻikai te ne maʻu ʻae moʻui.
13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may know that you have eternal life.
13Kuo u tohi ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kiate kimoutolu ʻoku tui ki he huafa ʻoe ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke mou ʻilo ʻoku ʻamoutolu ʻae moʻui taʻengata, pea ke mou tui ki he huafa ʻoe ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua.
14And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.
14Pea ko eni ʻae mālohi ʻaia ʻoku tau maʻu kiate ia, koeʻuhi, katau ka kole ha meʻa ʻo fakatatau ki hono finangalo, ʻoku ne ongoʻi ʻakitautolu:
15And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.
15Pea kapau ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻoku ne ongoʻi ʻakitautolu, ko ia kotoa pē ʻoku tau kolea, ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻoku tau maʻu ʻae ngaahi kole naʻa tau holi ai kiate ia.
16If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life—to those who commit sins that do not lead to death. There is sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for that.
16Kapau ʻe mamata ʻe ha taha ki he fai ʻe hono tokoua ha angahala ʻoku ʻikai ki he mate, pea ʻe kole ia, pea te ne foaki ʻae moʻui kiate ia
17All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that does not lead to death.
17Ko e taʻemāʻoniʻoni kotoa pē ko e angahala ia: pea ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae angahala ʻoku ʻikai ki he mate.
18We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
18ʻOku tau ʻilo, ko ia kotoa pē kuo fanauʻi ʻi he ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻikai angahala ia; ka ko ia kuo fanauʻi ʻi he ʻOtua ʻoku ne taʻofi ia ʻe ia, pea ʻoku ʻikai alasi ia ʻe he tokotaha kovi ko ia.
19We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
19ʻOku tau ʻilo ʻoku ʻae ʻOtua ʻakitautolu, ka ʻoku tokoto ʻa māmani kotoa pē ʻi he tokotaha kovi.
20And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
20Pea ʻoku tau ʻilo kuo haʻu ʻae ʻAlo ʻoe ʻOtua, pea kuo ne foaki ʻae ʻilo kiate kitautolu, ketau ʻiloʻi ia ʻaia ʻoku moʻoni, pea ʻoku tau ʻiate ia ʻoku moʻoni, ʻi hono ʻAlo ko Sisu Kalaisi. Ko eni ʻae ʻOtua moʻoni, mo e moʻui taʻengata.
21Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
21ʻAe fānau ʻofeina, taʻofi ʻakimoutolu mei he ngaahi tamapua. ʻEmeni.
