< 1 John 5 >
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
omnis qui credit quoniam Iesus est Christus ex Deo natus est et omnis qui diligit eum qui genuit diligit eum qui natus est ex eo
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
in hoc cognoscimus quoniam diligimus natos Dei cum Deum diligamus et mandata eius faciamus
3 For this is loving God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
haec est enim caritas Dei ut mandata eius custodiamus et mandata eius gravia non sunt
4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.
quoniam omne quod natum est ex Deo vincit mundum et haec est victoria quae vincit mundum fides nostra
5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
quis est qui vincit mundum nisi qui credit quoniam Iesus est Filius Dei
6 This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
hic est qui venit per aquam et sanguinem Iesus Christus non in aqua solum sed in aqua et sanguine et Spiritus est qui testificatur quoniam Christus est veritas
7 For there are three who testify:
quia tres sunt qui testimonium dant
8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.
Spiritus et aqua et sanguis et tres unum sunt
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is God’s testimony which he has testified concerning his Son.
si testimonium hominum accipimus testimonium Dei maius est quoniam hoc est testimonium Dei quod maius est quia testificatus est de Filio suo
10 He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
qui credit in Filio Dei habet testimonium Dei in se qui non credit Filio mendacem facit eum quoniam non credidit in testimonio quod testificatus est Deus de Filio suo
11 The testimony is this: that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios )
et hoc est testimonium quoniam vitam aeternam dedit nobis Deus et haec vita in Filio eius est (aiōnios )
12 He who has the Son has the life. He who doesn’t have God’s Son doesn’t have the life.
qui habet Filium habet vitam qui non habet Filium Dei vitam non habet
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios )
haec scripsi vobis ut sciatis quoniam vitam habetis aeternam qui creditis in nomine Filii Dei (aiōnios )
14 This is the boldness which we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
et haec est fiducia quam habemus ad eum quia quodcumque petierimus secundum voluntatem eius audit nos
15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
et scimus quoniam audit nos quicquid petierimus scimus quoniam habemus petitiones quas postulavimus ab eo
16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I don’t say that he should make a request concerning this.
qui scit fratrem suum peccare peccatum non ad mortem petet et dabit ei vitam peccantibus non ad mortem est peccatum ad mortem non pro illo dico ut roget
17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death.
omnis iniquitas peccatum est et est peccatum non ad mortem
18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn’t sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn’t touch him.
scimus quoniam omnis qui natus est ex Deo non peccat sed generatio Dei conservat eum et malignus non tangit eum
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
scimus quoniam ex Deo sumus et mundus totus in maligno positus est
20 We know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios )
et scimus quoniam Filius Dei venit et dedit nobis sensum ut cognoscamus verum Deum et simus in vero Filio eius hic est verus Deus et vita aeterna (aiōnios )
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
filioli custodite vos a simulacris
