1 Ivanova 5
1 Tko god vjeruje: “Isus je Krist”, od Boga je rođen. I tko god ljubi roditelja, ljubi i rođenoga.
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.
2 Po ovom znamo da ljubimo djecu Božju: kad Boga ljubimo i zapovijedi njegove vršimo.
By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.
3 Jer ljubav je Božja ovo: zapovijedi njegove čuvati. A zapovijedi njegove nisu teške.
For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,
4 Jer sve što je od Boga rođeno, pobjeđuje svijet. I ovo je pobjeda što pobijedi svijet: vjera naša.
because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.
5 Ta tko to pobjeđuje svijet ako ne onaj tko vjeruje da je Isus Sin Božji?
Who then overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
6 On, Isus Krist, dođe kroz vodu i krv. Ne samo u vodi nego - u vodi i krvi. I Duh je koji svjedoči jer Duh je istina.
This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ—not by water alone, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies to this, because the Spirit is the truth.
7 Jer troje je što svjedoči:
For there are three that testify:
8 Duh, voda i krv; i to je troje jedno.
the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and these three are in agreement.
9 Ako primamo svjedočanstvo ljudi, svjedočanstvo je Božje veće. Jer ovo je svjedočanstvo Božje, kojim je svjedočio za Sina svoga:
Even if we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony that God has given about His Son.
10 Tko vjeruje u Sina Božjega, ima to svjedočanstvo Božje u sebi. Tko ne vjeruje Bogu, učinio ga je lašcem jer nije vjerovao u svjedočanstvo kojim je svjedočio Bog za Sina svoga.
Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him; whoever does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given about His Son.
11 I ovo je svjedočanstvo: Bog nam je dao život vječni; i taj je život u Sinu njegovu. (aiōnios g166)
And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Tko ima Sina, ima život; tko nema Sina Božjega, nema života.
Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
14 I ovo je pouzdanje koje imamo u njega: ako što ištemo po volji njegovoj, uslišava nas.
And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 I znamo li da nas uslišava u svemu što ištemo, znamo da već imamo što smo od njega iskali.
And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we already possess what we have asked of Him.
16 Vidi li tko brata svojega gdje čini grijeh koji nije na smrt, neka ište i dat će mu život - onima koji čine grijeh što nije na smrt. Ima grijeh što je na smrt; za nj ne velim da moli.
If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he should ask God, who will give life to those who commit this kind of sin. There is a sin that leads to death; I am not saying he should ask regarding that sin.
17 Svaka je nepravda grijeh. A postoji grijeh koji nije na smrt.
All unrighteousness is sin, yet there is sin that does not lead to death.
18 Znamo: tko god je rođen od Boga, ne griješi; nego Rođeni od Boga čuva ga i Zli ga se ne dotiče.
We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; the One who was born of God protects him, and the evil one cannot touch him.
19 Znamo: od Boga smo, a sav je svijet pod Zlim.
We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one.
20 Znamo: Sin je Božji došao i dao nam razum da poznamo Istinitoga. I mi smo u Istinitom, u Sinu njegovu, Isusu Kristu. On je Bog istiniti i Život vječni. (aiōnios g166)
And 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. (aiōnios g166)
21 Dječice, klonite se idola!
Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
