< 1 John 5 >
1 Everyone who is believing that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten of God, and everyone who is loving Him who begot, also loves him who is begotten of Him.
EVERY one who believeth that Jesus is the Messiah, is born of God; and every one who loveth him that begat, loveth him also who is begotten by him.
2 In this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God and may keep His commands;
Hereby we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 for this is the love of God, that we may keep His commands, and His commands are not burdensome;
For this is the love of God, that we should keep his commandments: and his commandments are not burdensome.
4 because everyone who is begotten of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcame the world—our faith.
Because every one that is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith.
5 Who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?
Who is he that overcometh the world, except he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 This One is He who came through water and blood—Jesus the Christ, not in water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit is the [One] testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus the Messiah; not by the water only, but by the water and the blood: and the Spirit is the witnessing person, because the Spirit is the truth.
7 because [there] are three who are testifying [[in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one;
For they are three who bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these, even the three, are one.
8 and [there] are three who are testifying in the earth]]: the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are into the one.
And there are three which bear witness upon earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are for the same one object.
9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater, because this is the testimony of God that He has testified concerning His Son.
If we receive the testimony of man, the testimony of God is stronger: for this is the testimony of God which he testified concerning his Son.
10 He who is believing in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; he who is not believing God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified concerning His Son;
He that believeth on the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself; he that believeth not God, hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed on the testimony which God testified of his Son.
11 and this is the testimony, that God gave continuous life to us, and this life is in His Son; (aiōnios )
And this is the testimony, that God hath given life eternal to us; and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios )
12 he who is having the Son has life; he who is not having the Son of God does not have life.
He that hath the Son, hath this life; and he that hath not the Son of God, hath not this life.
13 I wrote these things to you who are believing in the Name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have continuous life, and that you may believe in the Name of the Son of God. (aiōnios )
These things have I written to you who believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have life eternal, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios )
14 And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if we may ask anything according to His will, He hears us,
And this is the confidence that we have towards him, that whatsoever we ask according to his will, he heareth us.
15 and if we have known that He hears us, whatever we may ask, we have known that we have the requests that we have requested from Him.
And if we know that he heareth us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we receive the petitions, which we have requested, from him.
16 If anyone may see his brother sinning a sin [that is] not to death, he will ask, and He will give life to him—to those not sinning to death; there is sin to death—I do not say that he may ask concerning it;
If any person see his brother committing a sin not unto death, he shall request, and God will grant him life for those that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I say not that he should request for that.
17 all unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin [that is] not to death.
All unrighteousness is sin; and there is sin not unto death.
18 We have known that everyone who has been begotten of God does not sin, but He who was begotten of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him;
We know that every one who is born of God sinneth not; but he that is born of God preserveth himself, and the wicked one toucheth him not.
19 we have known that we are of God, and the whole world lies [under the power] of the evil [one];
We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the power of that wicked one.
20 but we have known that the Son of God has come, and has given us a mind that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this One is the true God and the continuous Life! (aiōnios )
But we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given to us understanding, that we might know the true God; and we are in him that is true, in his Son Jesus the Messiah. HE is the true God, and the life eternal. (aiōnios )
21 Little children, guard yourselves from idols! Amen.
My dear children, guard yourselves against idols. Amen.
