1 Johannese 2
1 Mu lapsed, ma kirjutan teile selleks, et te ei teeks pattu. Aga kui keegi patustab, on meil Isa juures õige eestkostja, Jeesus Kristus.
My little children, I write these things unto you, that ye may not sin. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
2 Tema on lepitusohver meie pattude eest, ja mitte ainult meie, vaid kogu maailma pattude eest.
And He is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
3 Ja sellest me tunneme ära, et oleme tema ära tundnud, kui me täidame tema käske.
And by this we know that we have known Him, if we keep his commandments.
4 Kes väidab, et ta tunneb teda, aga tema käske ei täida, see on valetaja ja tõde ei ole tema sees.
He that saith, I know Him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5 Aga kes kuuletub tema sõnale, selles on tõesti Jumala armastus saanud täielikuks. Sellest me teamegi, et kuulume talle.
But whosoever keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: and by this we know that we are in Him.
6 Kes väidab end püsivat temas, peab elama nii, nagu Kristus elas.
He that saith, he abideth in Him, ought himself also so to walk even as He walked.
7 Armsad, ma ei saada teile uut käsku, vaid vana käsu, mis on olnud teil algusest peale. Vana käsk on see sõna, mida te olete kuulnud.
Brethren, I write not a new commandment unto you, but an old commandment which ye had from the beginning: the old commandment is the word which ye have heard from the beginning:
8 Samas on see ka uus käsk, mis on tõeks saanud Kristuses ja ka teis, sest pimedus kaob ja tõeline valgus juba paistab.
though I write it again as a new commandment, which is truth in Him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth.
9 Kes väidab enese olevat valguses, kuid vihkab oma venda, on ikka veel pimeduses.
Now he that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is still in darkness:
10 Kes oma venda armastab, see püsib valguses ja ta ei pane kedagi komistama.
whereas, he that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and is in no danger of stumbling.
11 Aga kes oma venda vihkab, see on pimeduses. Ta kõnnib pimedas ega tea, kuhu läheb, sest ta silmad on löödud pimedusega.
But he, that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not where he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
12 Ma kirjutan teile, lapsed, sest teie patud on teile andeks antud Jeesuse nime pärast.
I write unto you, little children, because for his sake your sins are forgiven you:
13 Ma kirjutan teile, isad, sest te tunnete teda, kes on olnud algusest peale. Ma kirjutan teile, noored mehed, sest te olete ära võitnud kurja.
I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known Him that is from the beginning: and I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. Yea I have written to you, little children, because ye have known the Father:
14 Ma olen kirjutanud teile, lapsed, sest te tunnete Isa. Ma olen kirjutanud teile, isad, sest te tunnete teda, kes on olnud algusest peale. Ma olen kirjutanud teile, noored mehed, sest te olete tugevad ja Jumala sõna elab teis ja te olete ära võitnud kurja.
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known Him that is from the beginning: and I have written to you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one---
15 Ärge armastage maailma ega midagi, mis on maailmas! Kes armastab maailma, selles ei ole armastust Isa vastu.
Love not the world, nor the things that are in the world; for if any one love the world to excess, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 Kõik see, mis on maailmas – lihahimu, silmahimu ja elukõrkus – ei pärine Isast, vaid on maailmast.
For all that is in the world, the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but of the world.
And the world passeth away, and the desire of it: but he, that doth the will of God, abideth for ever. (aiōn g165)
18 Lapsed, käes on viimne tund! Te olete kuulnud, et antikristus tuleb. Nüüd ongi välja ilmunud palju antikristusi, ja sellest me tunneme ära, et käes on viimne tund.
Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that an antichrist will come, there are even now many antichrists, whereby we know that it is the last time.
19 Nad on välja läinud meie seast, aga nad ei ole kuulunud meie hulka. Kui nad oleksid kuulunud meie hulka, siis nad oleksid jäänud meiega. Aga nende lahkumisega sai selgeks, et ükski neist ei kuulunud meie hulka.
They went out from us, but they were not of us: for if they had been indeed of us, they would have continued with us; but this was done that they might be made manifest, because all, that are with us, are not indeed of us.
20 Ent teil on ju võidmine sellelt, kes on Püha, ja te kõik teate tõde.
And ye have an unction from the holy One, and know all.
21 Ma ei kirjutanud teile mitte sellepärast, et te tõde ei tea, vaid et te teate seda, ja et ükski vale ei tule tõe seest.
I have not therefore written to you, because ye know not the truth; but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
22 Kes veel on valetaja, kui mitte see, kes salgab, et Jeesus on Kristus? Antikristus on see, kes salgab Isa ja Poega.
Who is a liar, if not he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, that denieth the Father as well as the Son;
23 Kes salgab Poja, sellel pole ka Isa; kes tunnistab Poega, sellel on ka Isa.
for whosoever denieth the Son, hath not the Father: but he that confesseth the Son acknowledgeth the Father also.
24 Mida te olete algusest peale kuulnud, see püsigu teie sees! Kui teis püsib see, mida te olete algusest peale kuulnud, siis püsite teiegi Pojas ja Isas.
Let that therefore, which ye have heard from the beginning, abide in you: for if that, which ye heard from the beginning, remain in you, ye also will remain in the Son and in the Father.
And this is the promise which He hath promised us, even eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
26 Seda ma kirjutasin teile nendest, kes tahavad teid eksitada.
These things have I written unto you concerning those who would seduce you.
27 Aga teie olete saanud Kristuselt võidmise, mis püsib teis ning te ei vaja, et keegi teid õpetaks; sest tema võidmine õpetab teile kõike, mis on tõde ja mitte vale. Niisiis, püsige temas, nagu tema teid on õpetanud!
But the unction, which ye have received from Him, abideth in you; and therefore ye have no need that any should teach you: since this very unction teacheth you concerning all things, and is truth and not falshood; even as that hath taught you, abide in Him.
28 Ja nüüd, lapsed, jääge temasse, et kui tema saab avalikuks, oleksime tema tulemise päeval julged ega peaks häbenema tema ees.
And now, little children, abide, I say, in Him; that, when He shall appear, we may have confidence, and may not be ashamed before Him at his coming.
29 Kui te teate, et Jumal on õige, siis saate olla kindlad, et igaüks, kes teeb õigust, on Jumalast sündinud.
If ye know that He is righteous, ye know that every one, who practiseth righteousness, is born of Him.
