1 Yochanan 2
1 My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus (the) Messiah, the righteous.
My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Yahushua the Messiah the righteous.
2 And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world.
And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
3 This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments.
Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments.
4 One who says, "I know him," and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
He who says, "I know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 But whoever keeps his word, God's love has truly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him:
But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of YHWH is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
6 he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.
He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
7 Beloved, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard.
Brethren, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning.
8 Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shines.
Again, a new commandment I write to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining.
9 He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now.
He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.
10 He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him.
He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.
11 But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.
12 I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young people, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you know the Father.
I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young people, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one.
I have written to you, fathers, because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of YHWH abides in you, and you have overcome the wicked one.
15 Do not love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father's love is not in him.
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not the Father's, but is the world's.
For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world.
17 The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God's will remains forever. (aiōn g165)
And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of YHWH abides forever. (aiōn g165)
18 Little children, these are the end times, and as you heard that the antimessiah is coming, even now many antimessiahs have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour.
Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the AntiMessiah is coming, even now many antiMessiahs have come, by which we know that it is the last hour.
19 They went out from us, but they did not belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us.
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.
21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth.
I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Messiah? This is the antimessiah, he who denies the Father and the Son.
Who is a liar but he who denies that Yahushua is the Messiah? He is antiMessiah who denies the Father and the Son.
23 Whoever denies the Son, the same does not have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also.
Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
24 As for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father.
Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.
And this is the promise that He has promised us--eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 These things I have written to you concerning those who would lead you astray.
These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you.
27 As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you do not need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you remain in him.
But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.
28 Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.
29 If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone also who practices righteousness is born of him.
If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.
