1 John 5

1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.

ܟܠ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܝܠܝܕ ܘܟܠ ܕܡܚܒ ܠܝܠܘܕܐ ܡܚܒ ܐܦ ܠܗܘ ܕܐܬܝܠܕ ܡܢܗ

2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.

ܘܒܗܕܐ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܡܚܒܝܢܢ ܠܒܢܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܐ ܕܠܐܠܗܐ ܡܚܒܝܢܢ ܘܥܒܕܝܢܢ ܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ

3 For this is loving God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.

ܗܢܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܚܘܒܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܢܛܪ ܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܘܦܘܩܕܢܘܗܝ ܠܐ ܝܩܝܪܝܢ

4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.

ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠ ܕܝܠܝܕ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܙܟܐ ܠܗ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܘܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܙܟܘܬܐ ܕܙܟܬܗ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܢ

5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

ܡܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܙܟܐ ܠܗ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܒܪܗ ܗܘ ܕܐܠܗܐ

6 This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

ܗܢܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܒܝܕ ܡܝܐ ܘܕܡܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܒܡܝܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܐܠܐ ܒܡܝܐ ܘܕܡܐ

7 For there are three who testify:

ܘܪܘܚܐ ܡܤܗܕܐ ܕܗܝ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܫܪܪܐ

8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.

ܘܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܬܠܬܐ ܤܗܕܝܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܡܝܐ ܘܕܡܐ ܘܬܠܬܝܗܘܢ ܒܚܕ ܐܢܘܢ

9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God’s testimony which he has testified concerning his Son.

ܐܢ ܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܡܩܒܠܝܢܢ ܚܕ ܟܡܐ ܤܗܕܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܪܒܐ ܗܝ ܘܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܤܗܕܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܤܗܕ ܥܠ ܒܪܗ

10 He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

ܟܠܡܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢ ܒܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܗܕܐ ܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܟܠ ܕܠܐ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܓܠܐ ܥܒܕܗ ܒܕܠܐ ܗܝܡܢ ܠܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܐܤܗܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܥܠ ܒܪܗ

11 The testimony is this, that God gave to us consummate (aiōnios g166) life, and this life is in his Son.

ܘܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܝܗܒ ܠܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܒܒܪܗ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ (aiōnios g166)

12 He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have God’s Son does not have the life.

ܟܠ ܕܐܚܝܕ ܠܒܪܐ ܐܚܝܕ ܐܦ ܠܚܝܐ ܘܟܠ ܕܠܐ ܐܚܝܕ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܝܐ

13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have consummate (aiōnios g166) life.

ܗܠܝܢ ܟܬܒܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܕܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܐܝܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܗܝܡܢܬܘܢ ܒܫܡܗ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ (aiōnios g166)

14 This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.

ܘܗܕܐ ܦܪܗܤܝܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܠܘܬܗ ܕܟܠ ܕܫܐܠܝܢܢ ܠܗ ܐܝܟ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܫܡܥ ܠܢ

15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.

ܘܐܢ ܡܦܤܝܢܢ ܕܫܡܥ ܠܢ ܥܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܫܐܠܝܢܢ ܡܢܗ ܬܟܝܠܝܢܢ ܕܩܒܠܢ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܫܐܠܬܢ ܕܫܐܠܢ ܡܢܗ

16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should make a request concerning this.

ܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܢܚܙܐ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܕܚܛܐ ܚܛܗܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܚܝܒ ܠܡܘܬܐ ܢܫܐܠ ܘܡܬܝܗܒܝܢ ܠܗ ܚܝܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܡܘܬܐ ܚܛܝܢ ܐܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܚܛܗܐ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܢܒܥܐ ܐܢܫ

17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death.

ܟܠ ܥܘܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܗܘ ܘܐܝܬ ܚܛܗܐ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܗܘ

18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one does not touch him.

ܘܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܟܠ ܕܝܠܝܕ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܚܛܐ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܝܠܝܕ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܢܛܪ ܢܦܫܗ ܘܒܝܫܐ ܠܐ ܡܬܩܪܒ ܠܗ

19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.

ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܚܢܢ ܘܥܠܡܐ ܟܠܗ ܒܒܝܫܐ ܗܘ ܤܝܡ

20 We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know the true one, and we are in the true one, in his Son, Jesus Christ. This is the true God and consummate (aiōnios g166) life.

ܘܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܬܐ ܘܝܗܒ ܠܢ ܡܕܥܐ ܕܢܕܥ ܠܫܪܝܪܐ ܘܢܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܒܫܪܝܪܐ ܒܒܪܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܢܐ ܗܘ ܐܠܗܐ ܫܪܝܪܐ ܘܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ (aiōnios g166)

21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

ܒܢܝ ܛܪܘ ܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܕܚܠܬ ܦܬܟܪܐ
