1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning—which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at, and our hands have touched—it is about 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 Also, the life was made known, and we have seen it, and we bear witness to it. We are announcing to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and which has been made known 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 That which we have seen and heard we declare also to you, so you also will have fellowship with us. 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 Also, we are writing these things to you so that our joy will be complete.
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 are announcing to you: 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 walk in darkness, we are lying and are not practicing 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 his Son cleanses us from every 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 have no sin, we are deceiving 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 But 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 out to be 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.
