1 John 5

1 Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ, has been begotten by God; and every one who loves the begetter, loves also the begotten by him.

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.

2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.

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

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not burdensome;

for this is the love of God, that we may keep His commands, and His commands are not burdensome;

4 because, every one that is begotten by God, overcomes the world. And this is the victory which overcomes the world, even our faith.

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

5 Who is he that overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

Who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?

6 This is her who came by water and blood, even Jesus the Christ; not by the water only, but by the water and the blood.

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,

7 And it is the Spirit who testified; because the Spirit is the truth.

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

8 Indeed, there are three who bear testimony: the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; and these three agree in one.

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.

9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. Now, this is the testimony of God, which he has testified concerning his Son.

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.

10 (He who believes on the Son of God, has the testimony in himself. He who believes not God, has made him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony, which God has testified concerning his Son.)

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;

11 Now this is the testimony, that God has given to us eternal life: and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)

and this is the testimony, that God gave continuous life to us, and this life is in His Son; (aiōnios g166)

12 He who has the Son, has this life; he who has not the Son of God, has not this life.

he who is having the Son has life; he who is not having the Son of God does not have life.

13 These things I have written to you, that you may know that you have eternal life--that you may continue to believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)

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)

14 And this is the confidence which we have with him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hearkens to us.

And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if we may ask anything according to His will, He hears us,

15 And if we know that he hearkens to us, concerning whatever we ask; we know that we shall obtain the petitions which we have asked from him.

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.

16 If any one see his brother sinning a sin, not to death, let him ask, and he will grant to him life, for those who sin not to death. There is a sin leading to death. I do not say concerning it, that you should ask.

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;

17 All unrighteousness is sin: but there is a sin not to death.

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

18 We know that whoever has been begotten by God, does not sin; but he who is begotten by God, guards himself, and the wicked on does not lay hold on him.

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;

19 We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies under the wicked one.

we have known that we are of God, and the whole world lies [under the power] of the evil [one];

20 Moreover, we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, that we might know him that is true; and we are in him that is true--in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

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)

21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

Little children, guard yourselves from idols! Amen.
