< 1 John 1 >
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our own eyes, which we have gazed upon and touched with our own hands—this is the Word of life.
Kar je bilo s konca, kar smo čuli, kar smo videli na svoje oči, kar smo gledali, in so tipale naše roke, o besedi življenja;
2 And this is the life that was revealed; we have seen it and testified to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life that was with the Father and was revealed to us. (aiōnios )
(In življenje se je prikazalo, in videli smo in pričamo, in oznanjamo vam večno življenje, katero je bilo pri očetu, in prikazalo se je nam: ) (aiōnios )
3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And this fellowship of ours is with the Father and with His Son, Jesus Christ.
Kar smo videli in čuli, oznanjamo vam, da imate tudi vi deleštvo z nami; in deleštvo naše je z očetom in sè sinom njegovim Jezusom Kristusom.
4 We write these things so that our joy may be complete.
In to vam pišemo, da bode veselje vaše napolnjeno.
5 And this is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you: God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.
In to je oznanilo, katero smo slišali od njega in ga oznanjamo vam, da je Bog luč, in temé v njem ni nobene.
6 If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.
Ako pravimo, da imamo deleštvo z njim in hodimo po temi, lažemo in ne delamo resnice;
7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
Če pa hodimo po luči, kakor je on v luči, imamo deleštvo med seboj, in kri Jezusa Kristusa sina njegovega nas očišča slehernega greha.
8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Ako pravimo, da nimamo greha, sami sebe slepimo, in resnice ni v nas.
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Če spoznavamo grehe svoje, zvest je in pravičen, da nam odpustí grehe in očisti nas sleherne krivice.
10 If we say we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar, and His word is not in us.
Ako pravimo, da nismo grešili, delamo ga za lažnika, in besede njegove ni v nas.
