1 John 2
1 My little children, I write these things to you so that ye may not sin. And if any man does sin, we have an advocate with the Father-righteous Jesus Christ.
he priyabālakāḥ, yuṣmābhi ryat pāpaṁ na kriyeta tadarthaṁ yuṣmān pratyetāni mayā likhyante| yadi tu kenāpi pāpaṁ kriyate tarhi pituḥ samīpe 'smākaṁ ekaḥ sahāyo 'rthato dhārmmiko yīśuḥ khrīṣṭo vidyate|
2 And he is the atonement for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
sa cāsmākaṁ pāpānāṁ prāyaścittaṁ kevalamasmākaṁ nahi kintu likhilasaṁsārasya pāpānāṁ prāyaścittaṁ|
3 And by this we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
vayaṁ taṁ jānīma iti tadīyājñāpālanenāvagacchāmaḥ|
4 He who says, I know him, and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in this man.
ahaṁ taṁ jānāmīti vaditvā yastasyājñā na pālayati so 'nṛtavādī satyamatañca tasyāntare na vidyate|
5 But whoever keeps his word, truly in this man the love of God is fully perfected. By this we know that we are in him.
yaḥ kaścit tasya vākyaṁ pālayati tasmin īśvarasya prema satyarūpeṇa sidhyati vayaṁ tasmin varttāmahe tad etenāvagacchāmaḥ|
6 He who claims to abide in him he also ought so to walk just as that man walked.
ahaṁ tasmin tiṣṭhāmīti yo gadati tasyedam ucitaṁ yat khrīṣṭo yādṛg ācaritavān so 'pi tādṛg ācaret|
7 Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment that ye had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word that ye heard from the beginning.
he priyatamāḥ, yuṣmān pratyahaṁ nūtanāmājñāṁ likhāmīti nahi kintvādito yuṣmābhi rlabdhāṁ purātanāmājñāṁ likhāmi| ādito yuṣmābhi ryad vākyaṁ śrutaṁ sā purātanājñā|
8 Again, a new commandment I write to you, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light now shines.
punarapi yuṣmān prati nūtanājñā mayā likhyata etadapi tasmin yuṣmāsu ca satyaṁ, yato 'ndhakāro vyatyeti satyā jyotiścedānīṁ prakāśate;
9 He who claims to be in the light, and hates his brother, is in the darkness until now.
ahaṁ jyotiṣi vartta iti gaditvā yaḥ svabhrātaraṁ dveṣṭi so 'dyāpi tamisre varttate|
10 He who loves his brother abides in the light, and no cause of stumbling is in him.
svabhrātari yaḥ prīyate sa eva jyotiṣi varttate vighnajanakaṁ kimapi tasmin na vidyate|
11 But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and he goes about in the darkness, and knows not where he goes, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
kintu svabhrātaraṁ yo dveṣṭi sa timire varttate timire carati ca timireṇa ca tasya nayane 'ndhīkriyete tasmāt kka yāmīti sa jñātuṁ na śaknoti|
12 I write to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you through his name.
he śiśavaḥ, yūyaṁ tasya nāmnā pāpakṣamāṁ prāptavantastasmād ahaṁ yuṣmān prati likhāmi|
13 I write to you, fathers, because ye have known him from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because ye have overcome evil. I write to you, children, because ye know the Father.
he pitaraḥ, ya ādito varttamānastaṁ yūyaṁ jānītha tasmād yuṣmān prati likhāmi| he yuvānaḥ yūyaṁ pāpatmānaṁ jitavantastasmād yuṣmān prati likhāmi| he bālakāḥ, yūyaṁ pitaraṁ jānītha tasmādahaṁ yuṣmān prati likhitavān|
14 I wrote to you, fathers, because ye have know him from the beginning. I wrote to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and ye have overcome evil.
he pitaraḥ, ādito yo varttamānastaṁ yūyaṁ jānītha tasmād yuṣmān prati likhitavān| he yuvānaḥ, yūyaṁ balavanta ādhve, īśvarasya vākyañca yuṣmadantare vartate pāpātmā ca yuṣmābhiḥ parājigye tasmād yuṣmān prati likhitavān|
15 Love not the world, nor the things in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
yūyaṁ saṁsāre saṁsārasthaviṣayeṣu ca mā prīyadhvaṁ yaḥ saṁsāre prīyate tasyāntare pituḥ prema na tiṣṭhati|
16 Because everything in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the arrogance of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
yataḥ saṁsāre yadyat sthitam arthataḥ śārīrikabhāvasyābhilāṣo darśanendriyasyābhilāṣo jīvanasya garvvaśca sarvvametat pitṛto na jāyate kintu saṁsāradeva|
17 And the world passes away, and the lust of it, but he who does the will of God abides into the age. (aiōn g165)
saṁsārastadīyābhilāṣaśca vyatyeti kintu ya īśvarasyeṣṭaṁ karoti so 'nantakālaṁ yāvat tiṣṭhati| (aiōn g165)
18 Children, it is the last hour. And as ye heard that the antichrist comes, and now many antichrists have developed, from which we know that it is the last hour.
he bālakāḥ, śeṣakālo'yaṁ, aparaṁ khrīṣṭāriṇopasthāvyamiti yuṣmābhi ryathā śrutaṁ tathā bahavaḥ khrīṣṭāraya upasthitāstasmādayaṁ śeṣakālo'stīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us. For if they were of us, they would have continued with us, but-so that they might be made known, that they are not all of us.
te 'smanmadhyān nirgatavantaḥ kintvasmadīyā nāsan yadyasmadīyā abhaviṣyan tarhyasmatsaṅge 'sthāsyan, kintu sarvve 'smadīyā na santyetasya prakāśa āvaśyaka āsīt|
20 And ye have an anointing from the Holy, and ye know all the things.
yaḥ pavitrastasmād yūyam abhiṣekaṁ prāptavantastena sarvvāṇi jānītha|
21 I wrote to you not because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and because no lie is of the truth.
yūyaṁ satyamataṁ na jānītha tatkāraṇād ahaṁ yuṣmān prati likhitavān tannahi kintu yūyaṁ tat jānītha satyamatācca kimapyanṛtavākyaṁ notpadyate tatkāraṇādeva|
22 Who is the liar if not he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.
yīśurabhiṣiktastrāteti yo nāṅgīkaroti taṁ vinā ko 'paro 'nṛtavādī bhavet? sa eva khrīṣṭāri ryaḥ pitaraṁ putrañca nāṅgīkaroti|
23 Every man who denies the Son, also does not have the Father.
yaḥ kaścit putraṁ nāṅgīkaroti sa pitaramapi na dhārayati yaśca putramaṅgīkaroti sa pitaramapi dhārayati|
24 Therefore ye, let what ye heard from the beginning abide in you. If what ye heard from the beginning abides in you, ye also will abide in the Son and in the Father.
ādito yuṣmābhi ryat śrutaṁ tad yuṣmāsu tiṣṭhatu, āditaḥ śrutaṁ vākyaṁ yadi yuṣmāsu tiṣṭhati, tarhi yūyamapi putre pitari ca sthāsyatha|
sa ca pratijñayāsmabhyaṁ yat pratijñātavān tad anantajīvanaṁ| (aiōnios g166)
26 I wrote these things to you concerning those who lead you astray.
ye janā yuṣmān bhrāmayanti tānadhyaham idaṁ likhitavān|
27 And for you, the anointing that ye received from him abides in you, and ye have no need that any man teach you, but as the same anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is no lie, and just as it taught you, ye will abide in him.
aparaṁ yūyaṁ tasmād yam abhiṣekaṁ prāptavantaḥ sa yuṣmāsu tiṣṭhati tataḥ ko'pi yad yuṣmān śikṣayet tad anāvaśyakaṁ, sa cābhiṣeko yuṣmān sarvvāṇi śikṣayati satyaśca bhavati na cātathyaḥ, ataḥ sa yuṣmān yadvad aśikṣayat tadvat tatra sthāsyatha|
28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he is made known, we may have confidence, and not be shamed by him at his coming.
ataeva he priyabālakā yūyaṁ tatra tiṣṭhata, tathā sati sa yadā prakāśiṣyate tadā vayaṁ pratibhānvitā bhaviṣyāmaḥ, tasyāgamanasamaye ca tasya sākṣānna trapiṣyāmahe|
29 If ye know that he is righteous, know ye that every man doing righteousness has been begotten of him.
sa dhārmmiko 'stīti yadi yūyaṁ jānītha tarhi yaḥ kaścid dharmmācāraṁ karoti sa tasmāt jāta ityapi jānīta|
