< 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.
he priyatamāḥ, yūyaṁ sarvveṣvātmasu na viśvasita kintu te īśvarāt jātā na vetyātmanaḥ parīkṣadhvaṁ yato bahavo mṛṣābhaviṣyadvādino jaganmadhyam āgatavantaḥ|
2 Hereby shall ye know the Spirit of God, Euery spirit which confesseth that Iesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God.
īśvarīyo ya ātmā sa yuṣmābhiranena paricīyatāṁ, yīśuḥ khrīṣṭo narāvatāro bhūtvāgata etad yena kenacid ātmanā svīkriyate sa īśvarīyaḥ|
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.
kintu yīśuḥ khrīṣṭo narāvatāro bhūtvāgata etad yena kenacid ātmanā nāṅgīkriyate sa īśvarīyo nahi kintu khrīṣṭārerātmā, tena cāgantavyamiti yuṣmābhiḥ śrutaṁ, sa cedānīmapi jagati varttate|
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.
he bālakāḥ, yūyam īśvarāt jātāstān jitavantaśca yataḥ saṁsārādhiṣṭhānakāriṇo 'pi yuṣmadadhiṣṭhānakārī mahān|
5 They are of this worlde, therefore speake they of this world, and this world heareth them.
te saṁsārāt jātāstato hetoḥ saṁsārād bhāṣante saṁsāraśca teṣāṁ vākyāni gṛhlāti|
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.
vayam īśvarāt jātāḥ, īśvaraṁ yo jānāti so'smadvākyāni gṛhlāti yaśceśvarāt jāto nahi so'smadvākyāni na gṛhlāti; anena vayaṁ satyātmānaṁ bhrāmakātmānañca paricinumaḥ|
7 Beloued, let vs loue one another: for loue commeth of God, and euery one that loueth, is borne of God, and knoweth God.
he priyatamāḥ, vayaṁ parasparaṁ prema karavāma, yataḥ prema īśvarāt jāyate, aparaṁ yaḥ kaścit prema karoti sa īśvarāt jāta īśvaraṁ vetti ca|
8 Hee that loueth not, knoweth not God: for God is loue.
yaḥ prema na karoti sa īśvaraṁ na jānāti yata īśvaraḥ premasvarūpaḥ|
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.
asmāsvīśvarasya premaitena prākāśata yat svaputreṇāsmabhyaṁ jīvanadānārtham īśvaraḥ svīyam advitīyaṁ putraṁ jaganmadhyaṁ preṣitavān|
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.
vayaṁ yad īśvare prītavanta ityatra nahi kintu sa yadasmāsu prītavān asmatpāpānāṁ prāyaścirttārthaṁ svaputraṁ preṣitavāṁścetyatra prema santiṣṭhate|
11 Beloued, if God so loued vs, we ought also to loue one another.
he priyatamāḥ, asmāsu yadīśvareṇaitādṛśaṁ prema kṛtaṁ tarhi parasparaṁ prema karttum asmākamapyucitaṁ|
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.
īśvaraḥ kadāca kenāpi na dṛṣṭaḥ yadyasmābhiḥ parasparaṁ prema kriyate tarhīśvaro 'smanmadhye tiṣṭhati tasya prema cāsmāsu setsyate|
13 Hereby know we, that we dwell in him, and he in vs: because he hath giuen vs of his Spirit.
asmabhyaṁ tena svakīyātmanoṁ'śo datta ityanena vayaṁ yat tasmin tiṣṭhāmaḥ sa ca yad asmāsu tiṣṭhatīti jānīmaḥ|
14 And we haue seene, and doe testifie, that the Father sent that Sonne to be ye Sauiour of the world.
pitā jagatrātāraṁ putraṁ preṣitavān etad vayaṁ dṛṣṭvā pramāṇayāmaḥ|
15 Whosoeuer confesseth that Iesus is the Sone of God, in him dwelleth God, and he in God.
yīśurīśvarasya putra etad yenāṅgīkriyate tasmin īśvarastiṣṭhati sa ceśvare tiṣṭhati|
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.
asmāsvīśvarasya yat prema varttate tad vayaṁ jñātavantastasmin viśvāsitavantaśca| īśvaraḥ premasvarūpaḥ premnī yastiṣṭhati sa īśvare tiṣṭhati tasmiṁśceśvarastiṣṭhati|
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.
sa yādṛśo 'sti vayamapyetasmin jagati tādṛśā bhavāma etasmād vicāradine 'smābhi ryā pratibhā labhyate sāsmatsambandhīyasya premnaḥ siddhiḥ|
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.
premni bhīti rna varttate kintu siddhaṁ prema bhītiṁ nirākaroti yato bhītiḥ sayātanāsti bhīto mānavaḥ premni siddho na jātaḥ|
19 We loue him, because he loued vs first.
asmāsu sa prathamaṁ prītavān iti kāraṇād vayaṁ tasmin prīyāmahe|
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?
īśvare 'haṁ prīya ityuktvā yaḥ kaścit svabhrātaraṁ dveṣṭi so 'nṛtavādī| sa yaṁ dṛṣṭavān tasmin svabhrātari yadi na prīyate tarhi yam īśvaraṁ na dṛṣṭavān kathaṁ tasmin prema karttuṁ śaknuyāt?
21 And this commandement haue we of him, that he that loueth God, should loue his brother also.
ata īśvare yaḥ prīyate sa svīyabhrātaryyapi prīyatām iyam ājñā tasmād asmābhi rlabdhā|
