< 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—
ܡܤܒܪܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܒܪܫܝܬ ܗܘ ܕܫܡܥܢ ܘܚܙܝܢܝܗܝ ܒܥܝܢܝܢ ܚܙܝܢ ܘܓܫܢ ܒܐܝܕܝܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܚܝܐ
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)
ܘܚܝܐ ܐܬܓܠܝܘ ܘܚܙܝܢ ܘܤܗܕܝܢܢ ܘܡܟܪܙܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܚܝܐ ܕܠܥܠܡ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܘܬ ܐܒܐ ܘܐܬܓܠܝܘ ܠܢ (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;
ܘܡܕܡ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܘܫܡܥܢ ܡܘܕܥܝܢܢ ܐܦ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܥܡܢ ܘܫܘܬܦܘܬܢ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܠܢ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܥܡ ܐܒܐ ܘܥܡ ܒܪܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ
4 and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
ܘܗܠܝܢ ܟܬܒܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܚܕܘܬܢ ܕܒܟܘܢ ܬܗܘܐ ܡܫܡܠܝܐ
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;
ܘܗܕܐ ܗܝ ܤܒܪܬܐ ܕܫܡܥܢ ܡܢܗ ܘܡܤܒܪܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܢܘܗܪܐ ܗܘ ܘܚܫܘܟܐ ܟܠ ܟܠܗ ܠܝܬ ܒܗ
6 if we may say, “We have fellowship with Him,” and may walk in the darkness—we lie, and do not [speak] the truth;
ܘܐܢ ܐܡܪܝܢܢ ܕܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܥܡܗ ܘܡܗܠܟܝܢܢ ܒܚܫܘܟܐ ܕܓܠܐ ܚܢܢ ܘܠܘ ܒܫܪܪܐ ܪܕܝܢܢ
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;
ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܢܘܗܪܐ ܡܗܠܟܝܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܗܘ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܒܢܘܗܪܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܫܘܬܦܘܬܐ ܥܡ ܚܕܕܐ ܘܕܡܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܒܪܗ ܡܕܟܐ ܠܢ ܡܢ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܚܛܗܝܢ
8 if we may say, “We have no sin,” we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us;
ܘܐܢ ܢܐܡܪ ܕܠܝܬ ܠܢ ܚܛܝܬܐ ܢܦܫܢ ܡܛܥܝܢܢ ܘܫܪܪܐ ܠܝܬ ܒܢ
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;
ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܘܕܝܢܢ ܒܚܛܗܝܢ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܗܘ ܘܙܕܝܩ ܕܢܫܒܘܩ ܠܢ ܚܛܗܝܢ ܘܢܕܟܝܢ ܡܢ ܟܠܗ ܥܘܠܢ
10 if we may say, “We have not sinned,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
ܘܐܢ ܐܡܪܝܢܢ ܕܠܐ ܚܛܝܢ ܥܒܕܝܢܢ ܠܗ ܕܓܠܐ ܘܡܠܬܗ ܠܝܬ ܠܘܬܢ
