1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we beheld, and our hands handled, concerning the Word of Life—
太初より有りし所のもの、我等が聞きしところ、目にて見し所、つらつら視て手觸りし所のもの、即ち生命の言につきて、
2 and the Life appeared, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the continuous Life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us— (aiōnios g166)
――この生命すでに顯れ、われら之を見て證をなし、その曾て父と偕に在して、今われらに顯れ給へる永遠の生命を汝らに告ぐ―― (aiōnios g166)
3 we declare to you that which we have seen and heard, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
我らの見しところ聞きし所を汝らに告ぐ、これ汝 等をも我らの交際に與らしめん爲なり。我らは父および其の子イエス・キリストの交際に與るなり。
4 and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
此 等のことを書き贈るは、我らの喜悦の滿ちん爲なり。
5 And this is the message that we have heard from Him, and announce to you, that God is light, and darkness is not in Him at all;
我らが彼より聞きて、また汝らに告ぐる音信は是なり、即ち神は光にして少しの暗き所なし。
6 if we may say, “We have fellowship with Him,” and may walk in the darkness—we lie, and do not [speak] the truth;
もし神と交際ありと言ひて暗きうちを歩まば、我ら僞りて眞理を行はざるなり。
7 and if we may walk in the light, as He is in the light—we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of His Son Jesus Christ cleanses us from every sin;
もし神の光のうちに在すごとく光のうちを歩まば、我ら互に交際を得、また其の子イエスの血、すべての罪より我らを潔む。
8 if we may say, “We have no sin,” we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us;
もし罪なしと言はば、是みづから欺けるにて眞理われらの中になし。
9 if we may confess our sins, He is steadfast and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from every unrighteousness;
もし己の罪を言ひあらはさば、神は眞實にして正しければ、我らの罪を赦し、凡ての不義より我らを潔め給はん。
10 if we may say, “We have not sinned,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
もし罪を犯したる事なしといはば、これ神を僞 者とするなり、神の言われらの中になし。
