1 John 1
1 We declare to you what was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have contemplated, and our very hands have felt concerning the Word of life,
2 This life was revealed; we have seen it, and we testify and declare to you the eternal life that was with the Father and that was revealed to us. (aiōnios g166)
(for this Life was manifested, and we saw it; and we testify and declare unto you that eternal Life, which was with the Father, (aiōnios g166)
3 What we have seen and heard we declare to you, so that you also may have fellowship with us, and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
and was manifested unto us) what we have seen and heard we declare unto you, that ye also may have communion with us: and our communion is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 We are writing these things to you so that our joy may be full.
And these things we write unto you, that your joy may be complete.
5 This is the message that we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him there is no darkness at all.
Now this we have heard from Him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth.
If we say that we have communion with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practise the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.
but if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have communion with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we do not have sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness:
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
but if we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
