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:

Whoever believes that Yeshua is the Meshikha is born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.

2 and in this we know that we love the children of God, since we love God and keep 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 the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.

4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that vanquisheth the world, even our faith.

For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.

5 Who then is he that overcometh the world, but he who believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Yeshua is the Son of God?

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.

This is he who came by water and blood, Yeshua Meshikha; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Rukha who testifies, because the Rukha is the truth.

7 Yea there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood:

For there are three who testify:

8 and these three agree in one.

the Rukha, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.

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.

If we accept human testimony, the witness of God is greater; for this is God's testimony that he has testified concerning his Son.

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.

He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

11 And the testimony is this, that God hath given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)

The testimony is this, that God gave to us everlasting life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)

12 He that hath the Son hath life: he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have God's Son does not have the 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)

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have everlasting life. (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:

This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.

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.

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.

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.

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 a sin leading to death. I do not say that he should make a request concerning this.

17 All unrighteousness indeed is sin, and yet there is a sin not unto death.

All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to 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.

We know that whoever is born of God does not sin, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.

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

We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil 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)

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 Yeshua Meshikha. He is the true God and eternal life. (aiōnios g166)

21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
