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.

Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one, that loveth Him that begat, loveth Him also that is begotten of Him:

2 In this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God and may keep His commands;

and in this we know that we love the children of God, since 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 keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

4 because everyone who is begotten of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcame the world—our faith.

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that vanquisheth the world, even 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 then is he that overcometh the world, but he who 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 that came by water and by blood, even Jesus the Messiah; not with water only, but with water and blood: and of this the Spirit beareth witness, for the Spirit is truth.

7 because [there] are three who are testifying [[in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one;

Yea there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood:

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 these three agree in one.

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.

Now if we admit the testimony of men, sure the testimony of God is greater: and this is the testimony of God, which He hath 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 witness in himself: he, that believeth not God, hath in effect made Him a liar, because he believed not the testimony which God hath 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 g166)

And the testimony is this, that God hath given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)

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 life: he that hath not the Son of God hath not 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 g166)

These things have I written to you, who believe on the name of the son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may the more firmly believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)

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, which we have towards Him, that if we ask any thing 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 in whatsoever we ask; we know that we shall have the petitions, which we have requested of 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 one see his brother commit a sin which is not unto death, let him pray for him, and God will give him life, that is for them that do not sin unto death. There is a sin unto death: and for that I do not say that he should pray.

17 all unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin [that is] not to death.

All unrighteousness indeed is sin, and yet there is a 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 whosoever is born of God, doth not practise sin: but keepeth himself from it, and the wicked one doth not touch him.

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 lieth under the 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 g166)

But we know that the son of God is come, and hath given us understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, and in his son Jesus Christ: He is the true God, and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

21 Little children, guard yourselves from idols! Amen.

Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
