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:
Filioli mei, hæc scribo vobis, ut non peccetis. Sed et si quis peccaverit, advocatum habemus apud Patrem, Jesum Christum justum:
2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for our's only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
et ipse est propitiatio pro peccatis nostris: non pro nostris autem tantum, sed etiam pro totius mundi.
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
Et in hoc scimus quoniam cognovimus eum, si mandata ejus observemus.
4 He that says, I know him, and keeps not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Qui dicit se nosse eum, et mandata ejus non custodit, mendax est, et in hoc veritas non est.
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.
Qui autem servat verbum ejus, vere in hoc caritas Dei perfecta est: et in hoc scimus quoniam in ipso sumus.
6 He that says he abides in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
Qui dicit se in ipso manere, debet, sicut ille ambulavit, et ipse ambulare.
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.
Carissimi, non mandatum novum scribo vobis, sed mandatum vetus, quod habuistis ab initio. Mandatum vetus est verbum, quod audistis.
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.
Iterum mandatum novum scribo vobis, quod verum est et in ipso, et in vobis: quia tenebræ transierunt, et verum lumen jam lucet.
9 He that says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now.
Qui dicit se in luce esse, et fratrem suum odit, in tenebris est usque adhuc.
10 He that loves his brother abides in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
Qui diligit fratrem suum, in lumine manet, et scandalum in eo non est.
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.
Qui autem odit fratrem suum, in tenebris est, et in tenebris ambulat, et nescit quo eat: quia tenebræ obcæcaverunt oculos ejus.
12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
Scribo vobis, filioli, quoniam remittuntur vobis peccata propter nomen ejus.
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.
Scribo vobis, patres, quoniam cognovistis eum, qui ab initio est. Scribo vobis, adolescentes, quoniam vicistis malignum.
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.
Scribo vobis, infantes, quoniam cognovistis patrem. Scribo vobis juvenes, quoniam fortes estis, et verbum Dei manet in vobis, et vicistis malignum.
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.
Nolite diligere mundum, neque ea quæ in mundo sunt. Si quis diligit mundum, non est caritas Patris in eo:
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.
quoniam omne quod est in mundo, concupiscentia carnis est, et concupiscentia oculorum, et superbia vitæ: quæ non est ex Patre, sed ex mundo est.
17 And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God abides for ever. (aiōn g165)
Et mundus transit, et concupiscentia ejus: qui autem facit voluntatem Dei manet in æternum. (aiōn g165)
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.
Filioli, novissima hora est: et sicut audistis quia antichristus venit, et nunc antichristi multi facti sunt; unde scimus, quia novissima hora est.
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.
Ex nobis prodierunt, sed non erant ex nobis, nam, si fuissent ex nobis, permansissent utique nobiscum: sed ut manifesti sint quoniam non sunt omnes ex nobis.
20 But all of you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know all things.
Sed vos unctionem habetis a Sancto, et nostis omnia.
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.
Non scripsi vobis quasi ignorantibus veritatem, sed quasi scientibus eam: et quoniam omne mendacium ex veritate non est.
22 Who is a liar but he that denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denies the Father and the Son.
Quis est mendax, nisi is qui negat quoniam Jesus est Christus? Hic est antichristus, qui negat Patrem, et Filium.
23 Whosoever denies the Son, the same has not the Father: he that acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
Omnis qui negat Filium, nec Patrem habet: qui confitetur Filium, et Patrem habet.
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.
Vos quod audistis ab initio, in vobis permaneat: si in vobis permanserit quod audistis ab initio, et vos in Filio et Patre manebitis.
Et hæc est repromissio, quam ipse pollicitus est nobis, vitam æternam. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things have I written unto you concerning them that seduce you.
Hæc scripsi vobis de his, qui seducant vos.
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.
Et vos unctionem, quam accepistis ab eo, maneat in vobis. Et non necesse habetis ut aliquis doceat vos: sed sicut unctio ejus docet vos de omnibus, et verum est, et non est mendacium. Et sicut docuit vos: manete in eo.
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.
Et nunc, filioli, manete in eo: ut cum apparuerit, habeamus fiduciam, et non confundamur ab eo in adventu ejus.
29 If all of you know that he is righteous, all of you know that every one that does righteousness is born of him.
Si scitis quoniam justus est, scitote quoniam et omnis, qui facit justitiam, ex ipso natus est.
