< 1 John 4 >

1 Dearely beloued, beleeue not euery spirit, but trie the spirits whether they are of God: for many false prophets are gone out into this worlde.
ܚܒܝܒܝ ܠܐ ܠܟܠ ܪܘܚܝܢ ܬܗܝܡܢܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܦܪܫܝܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܤܓܝܐܐ ܢܒܝܐ ܕܓܠܐ ܢܦܩܘ ܒܗ ܒܥܠܡܐ
2 Hereby shall ye know the Spirit of God, Euery spirit which confesseth that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God.
ܒܗܕܐ ܡܬܝܕܥܐ ܪܘܚܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܟܠ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܘܕܝܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܬܐ ܒܒܤܪ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܝ
3 And euery spirit that confesseth not that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is not of God: but this is the spirit of Antichrist, of whome ye haue heard, how that he should come, and nowe already he is in this world.
ܘܟܠ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܘܕܝܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܐܬܐ ܒܒܤܪ ܠܝܬܝܗ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܕܐ ܡܢ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܝ ܕܓܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܫܡܥܬܘܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܘܗܫܐ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܟܕܘ
4 Litle children, ye are of God, and haue ouercome them: for greater is he that is in you, then he that is in this world.
ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܬܝܟܘܢ ܒܢܝܐ ܘܙܟܝܬܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܪܒ ܗܘ ܕܒܟܘܢ ܡܢ ܗܘ ܕܒܥܠܡܐ
5 They are of this worlde, therefore speake they of this world, and this world heareth them.
ܘܗܠܝܢ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܡܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܡܡܠܠܝܢ ܘܥܠܡܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܫܡܥ
6 We are of God, he that knoweth God, heareth vs: he that is not of God, heareth vs not. Heereby knowe wee the spirit of trueth, and the spirit of errour.
ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܚܢܢ ܘܗܘ ܕܝܕܥ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܫܡܥ ܠܢ ܘܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܫܡܥ ܠܢ ܒܗ ܒܗܕܐ ܡܤܬܟܠܝܢܢ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܕܫܪܪܐ ܘܠܪܘܚܐ ܕܡܛܥܝܢܘܬܐ
7 Beloued, let vs loue one another: for loue commeth of God, and euery one that loueth, is borne of God, and knoweth God.
ܚܒܝܒܝ ܢܚܒ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܘܒܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܘܟܠ ܡܢ ܕܡܚܒ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܝܠܝܕ ܘܝܕܥ ܠܐܠܗܐ
8 Hee that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue.
ܡܛܠ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܘܒܐ ܗܘ ܘܟܠ ܕܠܐ ܡܚܒ ܠܐ ܝܕܥ ܠܐܠܗܐ
9 Herein was that loue of God made manifest amongst vs, because God sent that his onely begotten sonne into this world, that we might liue through him.
ܒܗܕܐ ܐܬܝܕܥ ܚܘܒܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܠܘܬܢ ܕܠܒܪܗ ܝܚܝܕܝܐ ܫܕܪ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܕܢܚܐ ܒܐܝܕܗ
10 Herein is that loue, not that we loued God, but that he loued vs, and sent his Sonne to be a reconciliation for our sinnes.
ܒܗܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܚܘܒܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܚܢܢ ܐܚܒܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܐܠܐ ܗܘ ܐܚܒܢ ܘܫܕܪ ܠܒܪܗ ܚܘܤܝܐ ܥܠ ܐܦܝ ܚܛܗܝܢ
11 Beloued, if God so loued vs, we ought also to loue one another.
ܚܒܝܒܝ ܐܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܚܒܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܚܝܒܝܢܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܠܡܚܒܘ
12 No man hath seene God at any time. If we loue one another, God dwelleth in vs, and his loue is perfect in vs.
ܠܐܠܗܐ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܚܙܝܗܝ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܢܚܒ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܐܠܗܐ ܒܢ ܡܩܘܐ ܘܚܘܒܗ ܡܫܬܡܠܐ ܒܢ
13 Hereby know we, that we dwell in him, and he in vs: because he hath giuen vs of his Spirit.
ܘܒܗܕܐ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܕܒܗ ܡܩܘܝܢܢ ܘܗܘ ܡܩܘܐ ܒܢ ܕܡܢ ܪܘܚܗ ܝܗܒ ܠܢ
14 And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent that Sonne to be ye Sauiour of the world.
ܘܚܢܢ ܚܙܝܢ ܘܡܤܗܕܝܢܢ ܕܐܒܐ ܫܕܪ ܠܒܪܗ ܦܪܘܩܐ ܠܥܠܡܐ
15 Whosoeuer confesseth that Iesus is the Sone of God, in him dwelleth God, and he in God.
ܟܠ ܕܡܘܕܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܒܗ ܡܩܘܐ ܘܗܘ ܡܩܘܐ ܒܐܠܗܐ
16 And we haue knowen, and beleeued ye loue that God hath in vs. God is loue, and he that dwelleth in loue, dwelleth in God, and God in him.
ܘܚܢܢ ܗܝܡܢܢ ܘܝܕܥܢ ܚܘܒܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܨܐܕܝܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܚܘܒܐ ܗܘ ܘܟܠ ܕܡܩܘܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܡܩܘܐ
17 Herein is that loue perfect in vs, that we should haue boldnes in the day of iudgement: for as he is, euen so are we in this world.
ܘܒܗܕܐ ܡܫܬܠܡ ܚܘܒܗ ܥܡܢ ܕܓܠܝܘܬ ܐܦܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܠܢ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܕܝܢܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܝܟ ܕܗܘܐ ܗܘ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܐܝܬܝܢ ܒܗܢܐ ܥܠܡܐ
18 There is no feare in loue, but perfect loue casteth out feare: for feare hath painefulnesse: and he that feareth, is not perfect in loue.
ܕܚܠܬܐ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܠܝܬ ܐܠܐ ܚܘܒܐ ܡܫܡܠܝܐ ܠܒܪ ܫܕܐ ܠܗ ܠܕܚܠܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܕܚܠܬܐ ܒܩܢܛܐ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܕܚܠ ܠܐ ܡܫܡܠܝ ܒܚܘܒܐ
19 We loue him, because he loued vs first.
ܚܢܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܢܚܒ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܘ ܩܕܡܝܬ ܐܚܒܢ
20 If any man say, I loue God, and hate his brother, he is a liar: for how can he that loueth not his brother whom he hath seene, loue God whom he hath not seene?
ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܢܫ ܢܐܡܪ ܕܡܚܒ ܐܢܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܤܢܐ ܕܓܠܐ ܗܘ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܕܡܬܚܙܐ ܠܐ ܡܚܒ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܚܒ
21 And this commandement haue we of him, that he that loueth God, should loue his brother also.
ܘܗܢܐ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܩܒܠܢ ܡܢܗ ܕܟܠ ܕܡܚܒ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܢܚܒ ܐܦ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ
