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 looked upon, and our hands handled, concerning the word of life,
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—
2 —and the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and announce to you the everlasting life, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us, — (aiōnios g166)
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)
3 that which we have seen and heard we announce to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
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;
4 And these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
5 And this is the message which we have heard from him, and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
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;
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not the truth;
if we may say, “We have fellowship with Him,” and may walk in the darkness—we lie, and do not [speak] the truth;
7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
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;
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
if we may say, “We have no sin,” we lead ourselves astray, and the truth is not in us;
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
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;
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
if we may say, “We have not sinned,” we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.
