< 1 John 2 >
1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that all of you sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
τεκνια μου ταυτα γραφω υμιν ινα μη αμαρτητε και εαν τις αμαρτη παρακλητον εχομεν προς τον πατερα ιησουν χριστον δικαιον
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for our's only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
και αυτος ιλασμος εστιν περι των αμαρτιων ημων ου περι των ημετερων δε μονον αλλα και περι ολου του κοσμου
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
και εν τουτω γινωσκομεν οτι εγνωκαμεν αυτον εαν τας εντολας αυτου τηρωμεν
4 He that says, I know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
ο λεγων οτι εγνωκα αυτον και τας εντολας αυτου μη τηρων ψευστης εστιν και εν τουτω η αληθεια ουκ εστιν
5 But whoso keeps his word, (logos) in him verily is the love (agape) of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
ος δ αν τηρη αυτου τον λογον αληθως εν τουτω η αγαπη του θεου τετελειωται εν τουτω γινωσκομεν οτι εν αυτω εσμεν
6 He that says he abides in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
ο λεγων εν αυτω μενειν οφειλει καθως εκεινος περιεπατησεν και αυτος {VAR2: [ουτως] } περιπατειν
7 Brethren, I write no new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which all of you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word (logos) which all of you have heard from the beginning.
αγαπητοι ουκ εντολην καινην γραφω υμιν αλλ εντολην παλαιαν ην ειχετε απ αρχης η εντολη η παλαια εστιν ο λογος ον ηκουσατε
8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shines.
παλιν εντολην καινην γραφω υμιν ο εστιν αληθες εν αυτω και εν υμιν οτι η σκοτια παραγεται και το φως το αληθινον ηδη φαινει
9 He that says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now.
ο λεγων εν τω φωτι ειναι και τον αδελφον αυτου μισων εν τη σκοτια εστιν εως αρτι
10 He that loves his brother abides in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
ο αγαπων τον αδελφον αυτου εν τω φωτι μενει και σκανδαλον εν αυτω ουκ εστιν
11 But he that hates his brother is in darkness, and walks in darkness, and knows not where he goes, because that darkness has blinded his eyes.
ο δε μισων τον αδελφον αυτου εν τη σκοτια εστιν και εν τη σκοτια περιπατει και ουκ οιδεν που υπαγει οτι η σκοτια ετυφλωσεν τους οφθαλμους αυτου
12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
γραφω υμιν τεκνια οτι αφεωνται υμιν αι αμαρτιαι δια το ονομα αυτου
13 I write unto you, fathers, because all of you have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because all of you have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because all of you have known the Father.
γραφω υμιν πατερες οτι εγνωκατε τον απ αρχης γραφω υμιν νεανισκοι οτι νενικηκατε τον πονηρον εγραψα υμιν παιδια οτι εγνωκατε τον πατερα
14 I have written unto you, fathers, because all of you have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because all of you are strong, and the word (logos) of God abides in you, and all of you have overcome the wicked one.
εγραψα υμιν πατερες οτι εγνωκατε τον απ αρχης εγραψα υμιν νεανισκοι οτι ισχυροι εστε και ο λογος {VAR1: [του θεου] } {VAR2: του θεου } εν υμιν μενει και νενικηκατε τον πονηρον
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love (agape) of the Father is not in him.
μη αγαπατε τον κοσμον μηδε τα εν τω κοσμω εαν τις αγαπα τον κοσμον ουκ εστιν η αγαπη του πατρος εν αυτω
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
οτι παν το εν τω κοσμω η επιθυμια της σαρκος και η επιθυμια των οφθαλμων και η αλαζονεια του βιου ουκ εστιν εκ του πατρος αλλ εκ του κοσμου εστιν
17 And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides for ever. (aiōn )
και ο κοσμος παραγεται και η επιθυμια {VAR1: [αυτου] } {VAR2: αυτου } ο δε ποιων το θελημα του θεου μενει εις τον αιωνα (aiōn )
18 Little children, it is the last time: and as all of you have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
παιδια εσχατη ωρα εστιν και καθως ηκουσατε οτι αντιχριστος ερχεται και νυν αντιχριστοι πολλοι γεγονασιν οθεν γινωσκομεν οτι εσχατη ωρα εστιν
19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
εξ ημων εξηλθαν αλλ ουκ ησαν εξ ημων ει γαρ εξ ημων ησαν μεμενηκεισαν αν μεθ ημων αλλ ινα φανερωθωσιν οτι ουκ εισιν παντες εξ ημων
20 But all of you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know all things.
και υμεις χρισμα εχετε απο του αγιου {VAR2: και } οιδατε παντες
21 I have not written unto you because all of you know not the truth, but because all of you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
ουκ εγραψα υμιν οτι ουκ οιδατε την αληθειαν αλλ οτι οιδατε αυτην και οτι παν ψευδος εκ της αληθειας ουκ εστιν
22 Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denies the Father and the Son.
τις εστιν ο ψευστης ει μη ο αρνουμενος οτι ιησους ουκ εστιν ο χριστος ουτος εστιν ο αντιχριστος ο αρνουμενος τον πατερα και τον υιον
23 Whosoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father: he that acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
πας ο αρνουμενος τον υιον ουδε τον πατερα εχει ο ομολογων τον υιον και τον πατερα εχει
24 Let that therefore abide in you, which all of you have heard from the beginning. If that which all of you have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, all of you also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
υμεις ο ηκουσατε απ αρχης εν υμιν μενετω εαν εν υμιν μεινη ο απ αρχης ηκουσατε και υμεις εν τω υιω και {VAR1: [εν] } {VAR2: εν } τω πατρι μενειτε
25 And this is the promise that he has promised us, even eternal life. (aiōnios )
και αυτη εστιν η επαγγελια ην αυτος επηγγειλατο ημιν την ζωην την αιωνιον (aiōnios )
26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
ταυτα εγραψα υμιν περι των πλανωντων υμας
27 But the anointing which all of you have received of him abides in you, and all of you need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it has taught you, all of you shall abide in him.
και υμεις το χρισμα ο ελαβετε απ αυτου μενει εν υμιν και ου χρειαν εχετε ινα τις διδασκη υμας αλλ ως το αυτου χρισμα διδασκει υμας περι παντων και αληθες εστιν και ουκ εστιν ψευδος και καθως εδιδαξεν υμας μενετε εν αυτω
28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
και νυν τεκνια μενετε εν αυτω ινα εαν φανερωθη σχωμεν παρρησιαν και μη αισχυνθωμεν απ αυτου εν τη παρουσια αυτου
29 If all of you know that he is righteous, all of you know that every one that does righteousness is born of him.
εαν ειδητε οτι δικαιος εστιν γινωσκετε οτι {VAR2: και } πας ο ποιων την δικαιοσυνην εξ αυτου γεγεννηται
