ヨハネの手紙第一 1
1 太初より有りし所のもの、我等が聞きしところ、目にて見し所、つらつら視て手觸りし所のもの、即ち生命の言につきて、
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
(For the life was manifested, and we have seen [it], and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us; ) (aiōnios g166)
3 我らの見しところ聞きし所を汝らに告ぐ、これ汝 等をも我らの交際に與らしめん爲なり。我らは父および其の子イエス・キリストの交際に與るなり。
That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
4 此 等のことを書き贈るは、我らの喜悦の滿ちん爲なり。
And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
5 我らが彼より聞きて、また汝らに告ぐる音信は是なり、即ち神は光にして少しの暗き所なし。
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 もし神と交際ありと言ひて暗きうちを歩まば、我ら僞りて眞理を行はざるなり。
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 もし神の光のうちに在すごとく光のうちを歩まば、我ら互に交際を得、また其の子イエスの血、すべての罪より我らを潔む。
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 もし罪なしと言はば、是みづから欺けるにて眞理われらの中になし。
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 もし己の罪を言ひあらはさば、神は眞實にして正しければ、我らの罪を赦し、凡ての不義より我らを潔め給はん。
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 もし罪を犯したる事なしといはば、これ神を僞 者とするなり、神の言われらの中になし。
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
