Ιωαννου Α΄ 3
1 ιδετε ποταπην αγαπην δεδωκεν ημιν ο πατηρ ινα τεκνα θεου κληθωμεν δια τουτο ο κοσμοσ ου γινωσκει υμασ οτι ουκ εγνω αυτον
Behold, what loue the Father hath giuen to vs, that we should be called the sonnes of God: for this cause this world knoweth you not, because it knoweth not him.
2 αγαπητοι νυν τεκνα θεου εσμεν και ουπω εφανερωθη τι εσομεθα οιδαμεν δε οτι εαν φανερωθη ομοιοι αυτω εσομεθα οτι οψομεθα αυτον καθωσ εστιν
Dearely beloued, nowe are we the sonnes of God, but yet it is not made manifest what we shall be: and we know that when he shalbe made manifest, we shalbe like him: for we shall see him as he is.
3 και πασ ο εχων την ελπιδα ταυτην επ αυτω αγνιζει εαυτον καθωσ εκεινοσ αγνοσ εστιν
And euery man that hath this hope in him, purgeth himselfe, euen as he is pure.
4 πασ ο ποιων την αμαρτιαν και την ανομιαν ποιει και η αμαρτια εστιν η ανομια
Whosoeuer committeth sinne, transgresseth also the Law: for sinne is the transgression of the Lawe.
5 και οιδατε οτι εκεινοσ εφανερωθη ινα τασ αμαρτιασ ημων αρη και αμαρτια εν αυτω ουκ εστιν
And ye knowe that hee was made manifest, that he might take away our sinnes, and in him is no sinne.
6 πασ ο εν αυτω μενων ουχ αμαρτανει πασ ο αμαρτανων ουχ εωρακεν αυτον ουδε εγνωκεν αυτον
Whosoeuer abideth in him, sinneth not: whosoeuer sinneth, hath not seene him, neither hath knowen him.
7 τεκνια μηδεισ πλανατω υμασ ο ποιων την δικαιοσυνην δικαιοσ εστιν καθωσ εκεινοσ δικαιοσ εστιν
Litle children, let no man deceiue you: he that doeth righteousnes, is righteous, as hee is righteous.
8 ο ποιων την αμαρτιαν εκ του διαβολου εστιν οτι απ αρχησ ο διαβολοσ αμαρτανει εισ τουτο εφανερωθη ο υιοσ του θεου ινα λυση τα εργα του διαβολου
He that comitteth sinne, is of the deuil: for the deuill sinneth from the beginning: for this purpose was made manifest that Sonne of God, that he might loose the workes of the deuil.
9 πασ ο γεγεννημενοσ εκ του θεου αμαρτιαν ου ποιει οτι σπερμα αυτου εν αυτω μενει και ου δυναται αμαρτανειν οτι εκ του θεου γεγεννηται
Whosoeuer is borne of God, sinneth not: for his seede remaineth in him, neither can hee sinne, because he is borne of God.
10 εν τουτω φανερα εστιν τα τεκνα του θεου και τα τεκνα του διαβολου πασ ο μη ποιων δικαιοσυνην ουκ εστιν εκ του θεου και ο μη αγαπων τον αδελφον αυτου
In this are the children of God knowen, and the children of the deuil: whosoeuer doeth not righteousnesse, is not of God, neither he that loueth not his brother.
11 οτι αυτη εστιν η αγγελια ην ηκουσατε απ αρχησ ινα αγαπωμεν αλληλουσ
For this is the message, that ye heard from the beginning, that we should loue one another,
12 ου καθωσ καιν εκ του πονηρου ην και εσφαξεν τον αδελφον αυτου και χαριν τινοσ εσφαξεν αυτον οτι τα εργα αυτου πονηρα ην τα δε του αδελφου αυτου δικαια
Not as Cain which was of that wicked one, and slewe his brother: and wherefore slewe he him? because his owne workes were euill, and his brothers good.
13 μη θαυμαζετε αδελφοι μου ει μισει υμασ ο κοσμοσ
Marueile not, my brethren, though this world hate you.
14 ημεισ οιδαμεν οτι μεταβεβηκαμεν εκ του θανατου εισ την ζωην οτι αγαπωμεν τουσ αδελφουσ ο μη αγαπων τον αδελφον μενει εν τω θανατω
We know that we are translated from death vnto life, because we loue the brethren: he that loueth not his brother, abideth in death.
15 πασ ο μισων τον αδελφον αυτου ανθρωποκτονοσ εστιν και οιδατε οτι πασ ανθρωποκτονοσ ουκ εχει ζωην αιωνιον εν εαυτω μενουσαν (aiōnios g166)
Whosoeuer hateth his brother, is a manslayer: and ye know that no manslayer hath eternall life abiding in him. (aiōnios g166)
16 εν τουτω εγνωκαμεν την αγαπην οτι εκεινοσ υπερ ημων την ψυχην αυτου εθηκεν και ημεισ οφειλομεν υπερ των αδελφων τασ ψυχασ τιθεναι
Hereby haue we perceiued loue, that he layde downe his life for vs: therefore we ought also to lay downe our liues for the brethren.
17 οσ δ αν εχη τον βιον του κοσμου και θεωρη τον αδελφον αυτου χρειαν εχοντα και κλειση τα σπλαγχνα αυτου απ αυτου πωσ η αγαπη του θεου μενει εν αυτω
And whosoeuer hath this worlds good, and seeth his brother haue neede, and shutteth vp his compassion from him, howe dwelleth the loue of God in him?
18 τεκνια μου μη αγαπωμεν λογω μηδε τη γλωσση αλλ εν εργω και αληθεια
My litle children, let vs not loue in worde, neither in tongue onely, but in deede and in trueth.
19 και εν τουτω γινωσκομεν οτι εκ τησ αληθειασ εσμεν και εμπροσθεν αυτου πεισομεν τασ καρδιασ ημων
For thereby we know that we are of the trueth, and shall before him assure our hearts.
20 οτι εαν καταγινωσκη ημων η καρδια οτι μειζων εστιν ο θεοσ τησ καρδιασ ημων και γινωσκει παντα
For if our heart condemne vs, God is greater then our heart, and knoweth all things.
21 αγαπητοι εαν η καρδια ημων μη καταγινωσκη ημων παρρησιαν εχομεν προσ τον θεον
Beloued, if our heart condemne vs not, then haue we boldnes toward God.
22 και ο εαν αιτωμεν λαμβανομεν παρ αυτου οτι τασ εντολασ αυτου τηρουμεν και τα αρεστα ενωπιον αυτου ποιουμεν
And whatsoeuer we aske we receiue of him, because we keepe his commandements, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.
23 και αυτη εστιν η εντολη αυτου ινα πιστευσωμεν τω ονοματι του υιου αυτου ιησου χριστου και αγαπωμεν αλληλουσ καθωσ εδωκεν εντολην
This is then his commandement, That we beleeue in the Name of his Sonne Iesus Christ, and loue one another as hee gaue commandement.
24 και ο τηρων τασ εντολασ αυτου εν αυτω μενει και αυτοσ εν αυτω και εν τουτω γινωσκομεν οτι μενει εν ημιν εκ του πνευματοσ ου ημιν εδωκεν
For hee that keepeth his commandements, dwelleth in him, and he in him: and hereby we knowe that hee abideth in vs, euen by that Spirit which he hath giuen vs.
