< 1 John 5 >

1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one, that loveth Him that begat, loveth Him also that is begotten of Him:
ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲑⲙⲉⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ϥⲙⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
2 and in this we know that we love the children of God, since we love God and keep his commandments.
ⲃ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲁⲅⲁⲡⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲙⲉⲛⲣⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
ⲅ̅ⲑⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉ ϯⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲥⲉϩⲟⲣϣ ⲁⲛ.
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that vanquisheth the world, even our faith.
ⲇ̅ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲙⲁⲥϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ϣⲁϥϭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓϭⲣⲟ ⲉⲧⲁϥϭⲣⲟ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲡⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲡⲉ.
5 Who then is he that overcometh the world, but he who believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
ⲉ̅ⲛⲓⲙ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧϭⲣⲏⲟⲩⲧ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ.
6 This is He that came by water and by blood, even Jesus the Messiah; not with water only, but with water and blood: and of this the Spirit beareth witness, for the Spirit is truth.
ⲋ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧϥ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲡⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
7 Yea there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood:
ⲍ̅ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲏⲓ ⲅ̅ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ.
8 and these three agree in one.
ⲏ̅ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲥⲛⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲅ̅ ⲥⲉϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ.
9 Now if we admit the testimony of men, sure the testimony of God is greater: and this is the testimony of God, which He hath testified concerning his Son.
ⲑ̅ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛϭⲓ ⳿ⲛϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ϫⲉ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϧⲁ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ.
10 He, that believeth on the Son of God, hath the witness in himself: he, that believeth not God, hath in effect made Him a liar, because he believed not the testimony which God hath testified of his Son.
ⲓ̅ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲥϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲁⲛ ⲁϥⲁⲓϥ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ϧⲁ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ.
11 And the testimony is this, that God hath given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ϫⲉ ⲁϥϯ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲁⲓⲱⲛϧ ⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥϣⲏⲣⲓ. (aiōnios g166)
12 He that hath the Son hath life: he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

13 These things have I written to you, who believe on the name of the son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may the more firmly believe on the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲣⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ. (aiōnios g166)
14 And this is the confidence, which we have towards Him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, He heareth us:
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ϯⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ϫⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲣⲉⲧⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ϣⲁϥⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲛ.
15 and if we know that He heareth us in whatsoever we ask; we know that we shall have the petitions, which we have requested of Him.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⳿ϥⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲣⲉⲧⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲧⲉⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲉⲧⲏⲙⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲉⲣⲉⲧⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ.
16 If any one see his brother commit a sin which is not unto death, let him pray for him, and God will give him life, that is for them that do not sin unto death. There is a sin unto death: and for that I do not say that he should pray.
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲉϥⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲉⲣⲉⲧⲓⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉϯ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛϧ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫⲁ ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲉϥϭⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲓϫⲉⲣⲉ ⲫⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲧⲱⲃϩ ⲉⲑⲃⲏⲧϥ.
17 All unrighteousness indeed is sin, and yet there is a sin not unto death.

18 We know that whosoever is born of God, doth not practise sin: but keepeth himself from it, and the wicked one doth not touch him.

19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth under the wicked one.

20 But we know that the son of God is come, and hath given us understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, and in his son Jesus Christ: He is the true God, and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
