1 Yohana 4 (Swahili) 1st John 4 (English)

Wapenzi, msiiamini kila roho, bali zijaribuni hizo roho, kwamba zimetokana na Mungu; kwa sababu manabii wa uongo wengi wametokea duniani. 1 Yohana 4:1

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

Katika hili mwamjua Roho wa Mungu; kila roho ikiriyo kwamba Yesu Kristo amekuja katika mwili yatokana na Mungu. 1 Yohana 4:2

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

Na kila roho isiyomkiri Yesu haitokani na Mungu. Na hii ndiyo roho ya mpinga Kristo ambayo mmesikia kwamba yaja; na sasa imekwisha kuwako duniani. 1 Yohana 4:3

and 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.

Ninyi, watoto wadogo, mwatokana na Mungu nanyi mmewashinda, kwa sababu yeye aliye ndani yenu ni mkuu kuliko yeye aliye katika dunia. 1 Yohana 4:4

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.

Hao ni wa dunia; kwa hiyo wanena ya dunia na dunia huwasikia 1 Yohana 4:5

They are of the world. Therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

Sisi twatokana na Mungu. Yeye amjuaye Mungu atusikia; yeye asiyetokana na Mungu hatusikii. Katika hili twamjua Roho wa kweli, na roho ya upotevu. 1 Yohana 4:6

We 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.

Wapenzi, na mpendane; kwa kuwa pendo latoka kwa Mungu, na kila apendaye amezaliwa na Mungu, naye anamjua Mungu. 1 Yohana 4:7

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God.

Yeye asiyependa, hakumjua Mungu, kwa maana Mungu ni upendo. 1 Yohana 4:8

He who doesn't love doesn't know God, for God is love.

Katika hili pendo la Mungu lilionekana kwetu, kwamba Mungu amemtuma Mwanawe pekee ulimwenguni, ili tupate uzima kwa yeye. 1 Yohana 4:9

By this was God's love revealed in us, that God has sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Hili ndilo pendo, si kwamba sisi tulimpenda Mungu, bali kwamba yeye alitupenda sisi, akamtuma Mwanawe kuwa kipatanisho kwa dhambi zetu. 1 Yohana 4:10

In 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.

Wapenzi ikiwa Mungu alitupenda sisi hivi, imetupasa na sisi kupendana. 1 Yohana 4:11

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

Hakuna mtu aliyemwona Mungu wakati wo wote. Tukipendana, Mungu hukaa ndani yetu, na pendo lake limekamilika ndani yetu. 1 Yohana 4:12

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

Katika hili tunafahamu ya kuwa tunakaa ndani yake, naye ndani yetu, kwa kuwa ametushirikisha Roho wake. 1 Yohana 4:13

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

Na sisi tumeona na kushuhudia ya kuwa Baba amemtuma Mwana kuwa Mwokozi wa ulimwengu. 1 Yohana 4:14

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

Kila akiriye ya kuwa Yesu ni Mwana wa Mungu, Mungu hukaa ndani yake, naye ndani ya Mungu. 1 Yohana 4:15

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

Nasi tumelifahamu pendo alilo nalo Mungu kwetu sisi, na kuliamini. Mungu ni upendo, naye akaaye katika pendo, hukaa ndani ya Mungu, na Mungu hukaa ndani yake. 1 Yohana 4:16

We 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.

Katika hili pendo limekamilishwa kwetu, ili tuwe na ujasiri katika siku ya hukumu; kwa kuwa, kama yeye alivyo, ndivyo tulivyo na sisi ulimwenguni humu. 1 Yohana 4:17

In 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.

Katika pendo hamna hofu; lakini pendo lililo kamili huitupa nje hofu, kwa maana hofu ina adhabu; na mwenye hofu hakukamilishwa katika pendo. 1 Yohana 4:18

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

Sisi twapenda kwa maana yeye alitupenda sisi kwanza. 1 Yohana 4:19

We love Him, because he first loved us.

Mtu akisema, Nampenda Mungu, naye anamchukia ndugu yake, ni mwongo; kwa maana asiyempenda ndugu yake ambaye amemwona, hawezi kumpenda Mungu ambaye hakumwona. 1 Yohana 4:20

If 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?

Na amri hii tumepewa na yeye, ya kwamba yeye ampendaye Mungu, ampende na ndugu yake. 1 Yohana 4:21

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