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:
Kdorkoli veruje, da Jezus je Kristus, je rojen iz Boga; in vsak, kdor ljubi tistega, ki je zaplodil, ljubi tudi tistega, ki je zaplojen od njega.
2 and in this we know that we love the children of God, since we love God and keep his commandments.
Da ljubimo Božje otroke, spoznamo s tem, ko ljubimo Boga in se ravnamo po njegovih zapovedih.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Kajti to je Božja ljubezen, da se ravnamo po njegovih zapovedih; in njegove zapovedi niso mučne.
4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that vanquisheth the world, even our faith.
Kajti karkoli je rojeno iz Boga, premaga svet; in to je zmaga, ki premaga svet, celó naša vera.
5 Who then is he that overcometh the world, but he who believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
Kdo je tisti, ki premaga svet, če ne tisti, ki veruje, da je Jezus Božji Sin?
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.
To je on, ki je prišel z vodo in krvjo, celó Jezus Kristus; ne samo z vodo, temveč z vodo in krvjo. In to je Duh, ki prinaša pričevanje, ker Duh je resnica.
7 Yea there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood:
Kajti trije so, ki pričujejo na nebu: Oče, Beseda in Sveti Duh; in ti trije so eno.
8 and these three agree in one.
In trije so, ki pričujejo na zemlji: Duh in voda in kri; in ti trije se strinjajo v enem.
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.
Če smo sprejeli pričevanje od ljudi, je pričevanje od Boga večje, kajti to je pričevanje Boga, ki je pričeval o svojem Sinu.
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.
Kdor veruje v Božjega Sina, ima pričevanje v sebi. Kdor pa ne veruje Bogu, ga je storil za lažnivca, ker ne veruje zapisu, ki ga je Bog dal o svojem Sinu.
11 And the testimony is this, that God hath given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
In to je zapis, da nam je Bog dal večno življenje in to življenje je v njegovem Sinu. (aiōnios g166)
12 He that hath the Son hath life: he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
Kdor ima Sina, ima življenje; kdor pa nima Božjega Sina, nima življenja.
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)
Te besede sem napisal vam, ki verujete v ime Božjega Sina; da boste lahko vedeli, da imate večno življenje in da lahko verujete v ime Božjega Sina. (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:
In to je zaupanje, ki ga imamo v njem, da če prosimo katerokoli stvar, glede na njegovo voljo, nas on usliši.
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.
In če vemo, da nas sliši, karkoli prosimo, vemo, da imamo prošnje, ki smo jih želeli od njega.
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.
Če katerikoli človek vidi svojega brata grešiti [z] grehom, ki ni za smrt, bo prosil in on mu bo dal življenje, za tiste, ki ne grešijo za smrt. Obstaja greh za smrt; ne pravim, da naj prosi zanj.
17 All unrighteousness indeed is sin, and yet there is a sin not unto death.
Vsa nepravičnost je greh; obstaja pa greh, ki ni za smrt.
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.
Vemo, da kdorkoli je rojen iz Boga, ne greši; temveč kdor je rojen iz Boga, sebe varuje in ta zlobni se ga ne dotika.
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth under the wicked one.
In mi vemo, da smo od Boga, celoten svet pa leži v zlobnosti.
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)
In mi vemo, da je Božji Sin prišel ter nam dal razumevanje, da bi lahko spoznali tistega, ki je resničen in mi smo v njem, ki je resničen, celó v njegovem Sinu Jezusu Kristusu. Ta je resničen Bog in večno življenje. (aiōnios g166)
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
Majhni otroci, varujte se pred maliki. Amen.
