١ يوحنَّا 3

١ 1 اُنْظُرُوا أَيَّةَ مَحَبَّةٍ أَعْطَانَا ٱلْآبُ حَتَّى نُدْعَى أَوْلَادَ ٱللهِ! مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا لَا يَعْرِفُنَا ٱلْعَالَمُ، لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَعْرِفُهُ.

Behold what love has given to us the Father, that children of God we may be called — (and we are! *NO*) Because of this the world not knows (us, *NK(O)*) because not it knew Him.

٢ 2 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَحِبَّاءُ، ٱلْآنَ نَحْنُ أَوْلَادُ ٱللهِ، وَلَمْ يُظْهَرْ بَعْدُ مَاذَا سَنَكُونُ. وَلَكِنْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ إِذَا أُظْهِرَ نَكُونُ مِثْلَهُ، لِأَنَّنَا سَنَرَاهُ كَمَا هُوَ.

Beloved, now children of God are we, and not yet has been revealed what we will be; We know (now *k*) that when He shall appear, like Him we will be, for we will behold Him even as He is.

٣ 3 وَكُلُّ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ هَذَا ٱلرَّجَاءُ بِهِ، يُطَهِّرُ نَفْسَهُ كَمَا هُوَ طَاهِرٌ.

And everyone who is having hope this in Him purifies himself even as He pure is.

٤ 4 كُلُّ مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ٱلْخَطِيَّةَ يَفْعَلُ ٱلتَّعَدِّيَ أَيْضًا. وَٱلْخَطِيَّةُ هِيَ ٱلتَّعَدِّي.

Everyone who is committing sin also lawlessness commits, and sin is lawlessness.

٥ 5 وَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ ذَاكَ أُظْهِرَ لِكَيْ يَرْفَعَ خَطَايَانَا، وَلَيْسَ فِيهِ خَطِيَّةٌ.

And you know that He appeared so that the sins (of us *K*) He may take away, and sin in Him not there is.

٦ 6 كُلُّ مَنْ يَثْبُتُ فِيهِ لَا يُخْطِئُ. كُلُّ مَنْ يُخْطِئُ لَمْ يُبْصِرْهُ وَلَا عَرَفَهُ.

Anyone in Him abiding not sins; anyone who is sinning not has seen Him nor has he known Him.

٧ 7 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَوْلَادُ، لَا يُضِلَّكُمْ أَحَدٌ: مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ٱلْبِرَّ فَهُوَ بَارٌّ، كَمَا أَنَّ ذَاكَ بَارٌّ.

(little children, *NK(o)*) no one should lead astray you; who are practicing righteousness righteous is even as He righteous is.

٨ 8 مَنْ يَفْعَلُ ٱلْخَطِيَّةَ فَهُوَ مِنْ إِبْلِيسَ، لِأَنَّ إِبْلِيسَ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ يُخْطِئُ. لِأَجْلِ هَذَا أُظْهِرَ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ لِكَيْ يَنْقُضَ أَعْمَالَ إِبْلِيسَ.

The [one] practicing sin of the devil is, because from [the] beginning the devil has been sinning. For this [reason] was revealed the Son of God so that He may destroy the works of the devil.

٩ 9 كُلُّ مَنْ هُوَ مَوْلُودٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ لَا يَفْعَلُ خَطِيَّةً، لِأَنَّ زَرْعَهُ يَثْبُتُ فِيهِ، وَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُخْطِئَ لِأَنَّهُ مَوْلُودٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ.

Anyone who born of God sin not practices, because seed of Him in him abides; and not he is able to continue sinning, because of God he has been born.

١٠ 10 بِهَذَا أَوْلَادُ ٱللهِ ظَاهِرُونَ وَأَوْلَادُ إِبْلِيسَ: كُلُّ مَنْ لَا يَفْعَلُ ٱلْبِرَّ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ ٱللهِ، وَكَذَا مَنْ لَا يُحِبُّ أَخَاهُ.

Through this manifest are the children of God and the children of the devil. Anyone not practicing righteousness not is of God, and also the [one] not loving the brother of him;

١١ 11 لِأَنَّ هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْخَبَرُ ٱلَّذِي سَمِعْتُمُوهُ مِنَ ٱلْبَدْءِ: أَنْ يُحِبَّ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا.

For this is the message that you have heard from [the] beginning that we may love one another;

١٢ 12 لَيْسَ كَمَا كَانَ قَايِينُ مِنَ ٱلشِّرِّيرِ وَذَبَحَ أَخَاهُ. وَلِمَاذَا ذَبَحَهُ؟ لِأَنَّ أَعْمَالَهُ كَانَتْ شِرِّيرَةً، وَأَعْمَالَ أَخِيهِ بَارَّةٌ.

not even as Cain [who] of the evil [one] was and he slew the brother of him; And because of what he slayed him? Because the works of him evil were, those however of the brother of him righteous.

١٣ 13 لَا تَتَعَجَّبُوا يَا إِخْوَتِي إِنْ كَانَ ٱلْعَالَمُ يُبْغِضُكُمْ.

(And *n*) not do be surprised, brothers (of mine *K*) if hates you the world.

١٤ 14 نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّنَا قَدِ ٱنْتَقَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ إِلَى ٱلْحَيَاةِ، لِأَنَّنَا نُحِبُّ ٱلْإِخْوَةَ. مَنْ لَا يُحِبَّ أَخَاهُ يَبْقَ فِي ٱلْمَوْتِ.

We ourselves know that we have passed from death to life, because we love [our] brothers; The [one] not loving (the brother *K*) abides in death.

١٥ 15 كُلُّ مَنْ يُبْغِضُ أَخَاهُ فَهُوَ قَاتِلُ نَفْسٍ، وَأَنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ كُلَّ قَاتِلِ نَفْسٍ لَيْسَ لَهُ حَيَاةٌ أَبَدِيَّةٌ ثَابِتَةٌ فِيهِ. (aiōnios g166)

Everyone who is hating the brother of him a murderer is; and you know that any murderer not has life eternal in (him *NK(o)*) abiding. (aiōnios g166)

١٦ 16 بِهَذَا قَدْ عَرَفْنَا ٱلْمَحَبَّةَ: أَنَّ ذَاكَ وَضَعَ نَفْسَهُ لِأَجْلِنَا، فَنَحْنُ يَنْبَغِي لَنَا أَنْ نَضَعَ نُفُوسَنَا لِأَجْلِ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ.

By this we have known love because He for us the life of Him laid down; and we ourselves ought for [our] brothers [our] lives (to lay down. *N(k)O*)

١٧ 17 وَأَمَّا مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَعِيشَةُ ٱلْعَالَمِ، وَنَظَرَ أَخَاهُ مُحْتَاجًا، وَأَغْلَقَ أَحْشَاءَهُ عَنْهُ، فَكَيْفَ تَثْبُتُ مَحَبَّةُ ٱللهِ فِيهِ؟

Who[ever] now maybe may have the goods of the world and may see the brother of him need having and he may close up the heart of him from him, how the love of God abides in him?

١٨ 18 يَا أَوْلَادِي، لَا نُحِبَّ بِٱلْكَلَامِ وَلَا بِٱللِّسَانِ، بَلْ بِٱلْعَمَلِ وَٱلْحَقِّ!

Little children (of mine *K*) not we may love in word nor in tongue but in action and in truth.

١٩ 19 وَبِهَذَا نَعْرِفُ أَنَّنَا مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ وَنُسَكِّنُ قُلُوبَنَا قُدَّامَهُ.

And by this (we will know *N(k)O*) that of the truth we are and before Him we will assure (heart *N(k)O*) of us,

٢٠ 20 لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ لَامَتْنَا قُلُوبُنَا فَٱللهُ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ قُلُوبِنَا، وَيَعْلَمُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ.

that if shall condemn [us] our heart, that greater than is the God of the heart of us and He knows all things.

٢١ 21 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَحِبَّاءُ، إِنْ لَمْ تَلُمْنَا قُلُوبُنَا، فَلَنَا ثِقَةٌ مِنْ نَحْوِ ٱللهِ.

Beloved, if the heart of us not shall condemn (us *ko*) confidence we have toward God,

٢٢ 22 وَمَهْمَا سَأَلْنَا نَنَالُ مِنْهُ، لِأَنَّنَا نَحْفَظُ وَصَايَاهُ، وَنَعْمَلُ ٱلْأَعْمَالَ ٱلْمَرْضِيَّةَ أَمَامَهُ.

and whatever (maybe *NK(o)*) we shall ask we receive (from *N(k)O*) Him, because the commandments of Him we keep and the [things] pleasing before Him we do.

٢٣ 23 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ وَصِيَّتُهُ: أَنْ نُؤْمِنَ بِٱسْمِ ٱبْنِهِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ، وَنُحِبَّ بَعْضُنَا بَعْضًا كَمَا أَعْطَانَا وَصِيَّةً.

And this is the commandment of Him that (we may believe *NK(o)*) in the name of the Son of Him Jesus Christ and we may love one another even as He gave [the] commandment to us.

٢٤ 24 وَمَنْ يَحْفَظْ وَصَايَاهُ يَثْبُتْ فِيهِ وَهُوَ فِيهِ. وَبِهَذَا نَعْرِفُ أَنَّهُ يَثْبُتُ فِينَا: مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَانَا.

And the [one] keeping the commandments of Him in Him abides, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom to us He has given.
