< 1 John 1 >
1 That which was from [the] beginning, that which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes; that which we contemplated, and our hands handled, concerning the word of life;
Što bijaše od početka, što smo čuli, što smo vidjeli očima svojim, što razmotrismo i ruke naše opipaše o Riječi, Životu -
2 (and the life has been manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and report to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and has been manifested to us: ) (aiōnios )
da, Život se očitova, i vidjeli smo i svjedočimo, i navješćujemo vam Život vječni, koji bijaše kod Oca i očitova se nama - (aiōnios )
3 that which we have seen and heard we report to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship [is] indeed with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
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.
4 And these things write we to you that your joy may be full.
I to vam pišemo da radost naša bude potpuna.
5 And this is the message which we have heard from him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
A ovo je navještaj koji smo čuli od njega i navješćujemo vama: Bog je svjetlost i tame u njemu nema nikakve!
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not practise the truth.
Reknemo li da imamo zajedništvo s njim, a u tami hodimo, lažemo i ne činimo istine.
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 Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.
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.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Reknemo li da grijeha nemamo, sami sebe varamo i istine nema u nama.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us [our] sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Ako priznamo grijehe svoje, vjeran je on i pravedan: otpustit će nam grijehe i očistiti nas od svake nepravde.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
Reknemo li da nismo zgriješili, pravimo ga lašcem i riječi njegove nema u nama.
