Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God. For many false prophets have gone out into the world.
1Ngantjalu, wata jaola pratjanani morlalu ngundranau, a‐ai, jaola worangu milkimilkiterkanau, tana Godandru nganai kara; ngangau jedikantji Propheta marapu dunkanala mitani.
2By this you will know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,
2Nunkangu Godaia Jaola ngujamanau: Warle jaolali dikanani, Jesus Christus palkuni wokarana wonti, nau Godandru nganai.
3and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and which is already in the world at this time.
3Ja warle jaolali wata dikai, Jesus Christus palkuni wokarana wonti, nau wata Godandru nganai, ja naupini tatakani Christuja jaola nganai, nunkangundru jura ngarana warai, nau wokarala nganai, ja nau karari matja mitani nganai.
4You, little children, are from God and have overcome them, because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
4Jura Godandru nganai, kupa waka worajai, ja tanana kalalu ngankana warai, ngangau morla pirna Nauja nganai Nauja jurangu, nunkangu nau mitani.
5They are of the world. That is why they speak from the world’s perspective, and the world listens to them.
5Tanapini mitandru nganai, jendrangundruja tanali mitandru kaukaubai, ja mitala tanali ngarai.
6We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. That is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deception.
6Ngaiana Godandru nganai; warle Goda ngujamai, nulu ngaianana ngarai; worana wata Godandru nganai, nulu ngaianana wata ngarai. Nunkangundru ngaiana morlalulaia Jaola ja jedibanaia jaola ngujamai.
7Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
7Ngantjalu, ngaiana ngantjamalinanto; ngangau ngantjani Godandru nganai, ja warle ngantjai, nau Godandru dunkana warai, ja nulu Goda ngujamai.
8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
8Warle wata ngantjai, nulu Goda wata ngujamai, ngangau Goda ngantjani nganai.
9This is how God’s love was revealed among us: God sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.
9Nunkangu Godaia ngantjana tinkari pantjina wonti ngaianangu, ngangau Godali nunkani Ngatamura Kunakulno mitani jinpana wonti, ngaiana nunkangundru tepirinanto.
10And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
10Nunkangu ngantjana parai, wata ngaiana Goda ngantjana wonti, a ai, Nulia ngaianana ngantjana wonti, ja Ngatamura nunkani jinpana wonti kalala nganananto ngaianani madlentjandru.
11Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
11Ngantjalu, Godali ngaianana jeruja matja ngantjanani, jeruja ngaiana wilpa nganai ngantjamalinanto.
12No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God remains in us, and His love is perfected in us.
12Wata kulnujeli Goda najina wonti; ngaiana ngantjamalinani, jeruja Goda ngaianangu ngamanani, ja nunkani ngantjani ngaianangu manamiri nganai.
13By this we know that we remain in Him, and He in us: He has given us of His Spirit.
13Nunkangundru ngaiana ngujamai, ngaiana nunkangu ngamai ja Nauja ngaianangu, ngangau Nulia nunkani Jaolandru ngaianangu jinkina warai.
14And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent His Son to be the Savior of the world.
14Ja ngaiani najina wonti, ja morlalu kurai, Ngaperali Ngatamura jinpana wonti, Nauja mitaia Kulkanipirna nganananto.
15If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
15Warle dikai, Jesus Godaia Ngatamura nganai, nunkangu Goda nganai, ja nau Godani.
16And we have come to know and believe the love that God has for us. God is love; whoever abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
16Ja ngaiana ngujamana warai, ja morlalu ngundrana warai ninaia ngantjana, ninaia Godali ngaianangu ngamalkai. (Dakani jaura G. D. 1 Trinitatis.) Goda ngantjani nganai, ja worana ngantjanani wonki ngamai, nau Godani ngamai, ja Goda nunkangu.
17In this way, love has been perfected among us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment; for in this world we are just like Him.
17Nunkangu ngantjani ngaianangu manamiri nganai, ngaiana murlali nganananto kalala ditjini; ngangau worderu Nauja nganai, jeruja bakana ngaiana nganai nunkangupini mitani.
18There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. The one who fears has not been perfected in love.
18Japa wata ngantjanani nganai, a‐ai, ngantjanali japa narrai, ngangau japali kalala ngamalkai. Worana japali nganai, nau wata manamiri nganai ngantjanani.
19We love because He first loved us.
19Ngaiana ninaia ngantjai, ngangau Nulia ngaianana ngopera ngantjana wonti.
20If anyone says, “I love God,” but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
20Kulno jatanani: Goda ngato ngantjai, ja nau ngatatani nunkanani kalakalariai, jeruja nau jedikantji nganai; ngangau warle ngatata nunkani wata ngantjai, nina nulu kantji najiai, worderu nulu Goda ngantjala nganai, ninaia nulu wata najiai?
21And we have this commandment from Him: Whoever loves God must love his brother as well.
21Ja ninapini jirijiribani jaura ngaiana nunkangundru ngamalkai: Warle Goda ngantjai, nulu bakana ngatata nunkani ngantjai.
