1 Johannes 5
1 Hver den, som tror, at Jesus er Kristus, er født af Gud; og hver den, som elsker Faderen, elsker ogsaa den, som er født af ham.
Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loves him that fathered loves him also that is begotten of him.
2 Derpaa kende vi, at vi elske Guds Børn, naar vi elske Gud og gøre hans Bud.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 Thi dette er Kærlighed til Gud, at vi holde hans Bud; og hans Bud ere ikke svære;
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
4 thi alt det, som er født af Gud, overvinder Verden; og dette er den Sejr, som har overvundet Verden, vor Tro.
For whatever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith.
5 Hvem er den, som overvinder Verden, uden den, som tror, at Jesus er Guds Søn?
Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Han er den, som kom med Vand og Blod, Jesus Kristus; ikke med Vandet alene, men med Vandet og med Blodet; og det er Aanden, som vidner, thi Aanden er Sandheden.
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 Thi tre ere de, som vidne:
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
8 Aanden og Vandet og Blodet; og disse tre forene sig til eet.
And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
9 Dersom vi tage imod Menneskenes Vidnesbyrd, da er Guds Vidnesbyrd større; thi dette er Guds Vidnesbyrd, at han har vidnet om sin Søn.
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he has testified of his Son.
10 Den, som tror paa Guds Søn, har Vidnesbyrdet i sig selv; den, som ikke tror Gud, har gjort ham til en Løgner, fordi han ikke har troet paa det Vidnesbyrd, som Gud har vidnet om sin Søn.
He that believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself: he that believes not God has made him a liar; because he believes not the record that God gave of his Son.
11 Og dette er Vidnesbyrdet, at Gud har givet os evigt Liv; og dette Liv er i hans Søn. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the record, that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 Den, som har Sønnen, har Livet; den, som ikke har Guds Søn, har ikke Livet.
He that has the Son has life; and he that has not the Son of God has not life.
13 Dette har jeg skrevet til eder, for at I skulle vide, at I have evigt Liv, I, som tro paa Guds Søns Navn. (aiōnios g166)
These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 Og dette er den Frimodighed, som vi have over for ham, at dersom vi bede om noget efter hans Villie, hører han os.
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he hears us:
15 Og dersom vi vide, at han hører os, hvad vi end bede om, da vide vi, at vi have de Ting, om hvilke vi have bedet ham.
And if we know that he hear us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
16 Dersom nogen ser sin Broder begaa Synd, som ikke er til Døden, han bede, og han skal give ham Liv, dem nemlig, som ikke synde til Døden. Der er Synd til Døden; for den siger jeg ikke, at han skal bede.
If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not to death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
17 Al Uretfærdighed er Synd; men der er Synd, som ikke er til Døden.
All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not to death.
18 Vi vide, at hver den, som er født af Gud, synder ikke; men den, som er født af Gud, bevarer sig selv, og den onde rører ham ikke.
We know that whoever is born of God sins not; but he that is begotten of God keeps himself, and that wicked one touches him not.
19 Vi vide, at vi ere af Gud, og hele Verden ligger i det onde.
And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in wickedness.
20 Men vi vide, at Guds Søn er kommen, og han har givet os Forstand til at kende den sande; og vi ere i den sande, i hans Søn Jesus Kristus. Denne er den sande Gud og evigt Liv. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God is come, and has given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Mine Børn, vogter eder for Afguderne!
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
