< 1 John 5 >

1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born from God, and whoever loves a father also loves the child born from him.
Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ hath been born of God; and every one that loveth him that begat, loveth also him that hath been begotten of him.
2 Because of this we know that we love God's children, when we love God and do his commandments.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and do his commandments.
3 For this is love for God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.
For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not burdensome,
4 For everyone who is born from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
because whatever is born of God overcometh the world; and this is the victory that hath overcome the world, even our faith.
5 Who is the one who overcomes the world? The one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.
Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 This is the one who came by water and blood: Jesus Christ. He came not only by water, but also by water and blood.
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not in the water only, but in the water and in the blood; and the Spirit is that which beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
7 For there are three who bear witness:
8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood. These three are in agreement.
For there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; and these three agree in one.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For the testimony of God is this, that he has borne witness concerning his Son.
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God, that he hath borne witness concerning his Son.
10 Anyone who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the witness that God has given concerning his Son.
He that believeth in the Son of God hath the witness within him; he that believeth not God hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed in the witness which God hath borne concerning his Son.
11 And the witness is this: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
And this is the witness, that God gave to us everlasting life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
12 The one who has the Son has life. The one who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
He that hath the Son hath the life; he that hath not the Son of God hath not the life.
13 I have written to you these things so that you will know that you have eternal life—to you who believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
These things have I written to you, that ye may know that ye who believe in the name of the Son of God have everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
14 Also, this is the confidence we have before him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
And this is the confidence which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he heareth us;
15 Also, if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask of him—we know that we have whatever we have asked of him.
and if we know that he heareth us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked of him.
16 If anyone sees his brother commit a sin that does not result in death, he must pray, and God will give him life. I refer to those whose sin does not result in death. There is a sin that results in death; I am not saying that he should pray about that.
If any one see his brother sin a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and shall give him life, —to those who sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death; for that I do not say that he shall pray.
17 All unrighteousness is sin, but there is sin that does not result in death.
All unrighteousness is sin; and there is a sin not unto death.
18 We know that whoever is born from God does not sin. But the one who was born from God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.
We know that whoever hath been born of God sinneth not; but he that is born of God keepeth himself, and the Evil One toucheth him not.
19 We know that we are from God, and we know that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth under the dominion of the Evil One.
20 But we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. Also, we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This one is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
And we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given us understanding, that we may know the True One; and we are in the True One, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
21 Children, keep yourselves from idols.
My children, keep yourselves from idols.
