< 1 Ivanova 1 >
1 Što bijaše od početka, što smo čuli, što smo vidjeli očima svojim, što razmotrismo i ruke naše opipaše o Riječi, Životu -
We declare to you what was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life.
2 da, Život se očitova, i vidjeli smo i svjedočimo, i navješćujemo vam Život vječni, koji bijaše kod Oca i očitova se nama - (aiōnios )
This life was revealed; we have seen it, and we testify and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father and that was revealed to us. (aiōnios )
3 što smo vidjeli i čuli, navješćujemo i vama da i vi imate zajedništvo s nama. A naše je zajedništvo s Ocem i sa Sinom njegovim Isusom Kristom.
What we have seen and heard we declare to you, so that you also may have fellowship with us, and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 I to vam pišemo da radost naša bude potpuna.
We are writing these things to you so that our joy may be full.
5 A ovo je navještaj koji smo čuli od njega i navješćujemo vama: Bog je svjetlost i tame u njemu nema nikakve!
This is the message that we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.
6 Reknemo li da imamo zajedništvo s njim, a u tami hodimo, lažemo i ne činimo istine.
If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.
7 Ako u svjetlosti hodimo, kao što je on u svjetlosti, imamo zajedništvo jedni s drugima i krv Isusa, Sina njegova, čisti nas od svakoga grijeha.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.
8 Reknemo li da grijeha nemamo, sami sebe varamo i istine nema u nama.
If we say that we do not have sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Ako priznamo grijehe svoje, vjeran je on i pravedan: otpustit će nam grijehe i očistiti nas od svake nepravde.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Reknemo li da nismo zgriješili, pravimo ga lašcem i riječi njegove nema u nama.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
