I John 4

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Mezanmi, nou pa bezwen kwè tout moun k'ap di yo gen Lespri Bondye a. Men, se pou n' sonde yo pou nou wè si lespri yo genyen an soti nan Bondye vre. Paske, gen yon bann fo pwofèt ki gaye toupatou sou latè a.

Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

Men ki jan nou ka konnen si yon lespri soti nan Bondye: tout moun ki di Jezikri te yon moun tout bon, se moun ki gen lespri ki soti nan Bondye a.

And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

Men, si yon moun refize rekonèt Jezi te yon moun tout bon, moun sa a pa gen lespri ki soti nan Bondye a. Lespri li genyen an soti nan moun k'ap goumen ak Kris la. Yo te di nou moun k'ap goumen ak Kris la te gen pou l' te vini. Enben, koulye a li deja nan lemonn.

Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Men, nou menm, pitit mwen yo, nou se moun Bondye, nou kraze fo pwofèt yo, paske lespri ki nan nou an gen plis pouvwa pase lespri ki nan moun ki pou lemonn yo.

They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

Lè y'ap pale yo pale tankou moun ki nan lemonn. Moun ki nan lemonn ap koute yo paske yo menm tou yo se moun lemonn.

We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

Men, nou menm, nou se moun Bondye. Tout moun ki konnen Bondye, yo koute lè n'ap pale ak yo. Moun ki pa moun Bondye p'ap koute nou. Se konsa nou ka konnen diferans ki genyen ant lespri k'ap pale verite a ak lespri k'ap bay manti a.

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

Mezanmi, se pou nou yonn renmen lòt paske renmen soti nan Bondye. Moun ki gen renmen nan kè yo, se pitit Bondye yo ye. Yo konnen ki moun Bondye ye.

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

Moun ki pa gen renmen nan kè yo, yo pa konn Bondye, paske Bondye se renmen menm.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Men ki jan Bondye fè nou wè jan li renmen nou. Li te voye sèl pitit li a sou latè pou l' te ka ban nou lavi.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

Men kisa renmen an ye: Se pa nou menm ki te renmen Bondye, se li menm pito ki te renmen nou, ki te voye Pitit li a pou nou te ka resevwa padon pou peche nou yo, gremesi Pitit la.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

Mezanmi, si Bondye renmen nou konsa, nou menm tou se pou nou yonn renmen lòt.

No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

Pesonn pa janm wè Bondye. Men, si nou yonn renmen lòt, Bondye fè yonn ak nou. Konsa n'a renmen tout bon, jan Bondye renmen an.

Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

Nou konnen nou fè yonn ak Bondye, Bondye fè yonn ak nou, paske li ban nou Sentespri li.

And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

Nou menm, n'ap di sa nou te wè. Papa a voye Pitit li a pou delivre tout moun.

Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

Moun ki rekonèt Jezi pou Pitit Bondye a, Bondye fè yonn ak yo, yo fè yonn ak Bondye.

And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Nou menm nou konnen jan Bondye renmen nou, nou kwè se vre. Bondye se renmen an menm. Moun ki gen renmen nan kè yo, yo fè yonn ak Bondye, Bondye fè yonn ak yo.

Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

Nou konnen nou renmen Bondye tout bon lè kè nou pa kase pou jou jijman an, paske n'ap viv nan lemonn tankou Kris la t'ap viv.

There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Kote ki gen renmen, pa gen kè kase. Okontrè, lè nou renmen tout bon, si kè nou te kase, li pa kase ankò. Konsa, yon moun ki pè toujou, li poko fin renmen nèt. Paske si ou pè, se paske ou pè chatiman.

We love him, because he first loved us.

Pou nou menm, nou gen renmen nan kè nou, paske Bondye te renmen nou anvan.

If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

Si yon moun di: mwen renmen Bondye, pou anmenmtan pou l' rayi frè l', moun sa a ap bay manti. Paske, si li pa renmen frè l', yon moun li ka wè, li pa ka renmen Bondye li pa ka wè a.

And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

Se sak fè, men kòmandman Kris la ban nou: Moun ki renmen Bondye, yo fèt pou renmen frè yo tou.
