Iohannis I 5
1 omnis qui credit quoniam Iesus est Christus ex Deo natus est et omnis qui diligit eum qui genuit diligit eum qui natus est ex eo
Every one who is believing that Jesus is the Christ, of God he hath been begotten, and every one who is loving Him who did beget, doth love also him who is begotten of Him:
2 in hoc cognoscimus quoniam diligimus natos Dei cum Deum diligamus et mandata eius faciamus
in this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God, and His commands may keep;
3 haec est enim caritas Dei ut mandata eius custodiamus et mandata eius gravia non sunt
for this is the love of God, that His commands we may keep, and His commands are not burdensome;
4 quoniam omne quod natum est ex Deo vincit mundum et haec est victoria quae vincit mundum fides nostra
because every one who is begotten of God doth overcome the world, and this is the victory that did overcome the world — our faith;
5 quis est qui vincit mundum nisi qui credit quoniam Iesus est Filius Dei
who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 hic est qui venit per aquam et sanguinem Iesus Christus non in aqua solum sed in aqua et sanguine et Spiritus est qui testificatur quoniam Christus est veritas
This one is he who did come through water and blood — Jesus the Christ, not in the water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit it is that is testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,
7 quia tres sunt qui testimonium dant
because three are who are testifying [in the heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these — the three — are one;
8 Spiritus et aqua et sanguis et tres unum sunt
and three are who are testifying in the earth], the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are into the one.
9 si testimonium hominum accipimus testimonium Dei maius est quoniam hoc est testimonium Dei quod maius est quia testificatus est de Filio suo
If the testimony of men we receive, the testimony of God is greater, because this is the testimony of God that He hath testified concerning His Son.
10 qui credit in Filio Dei habet testimonium Dei in se qui non credit Filio mendacem facit eum quoniam non credidit in testimonio quod testificatus est Deus de Filio suo
He who is believing in the Son of God, hath the testimony in himself; he who is not believing God, a liar hath made Him, because he hath not believed in the testimony that God hath testified concerning His Son;
11 et hoc est testimonium quoniam vitam aeternam dedit nobis Deus et haec vita in Filio eius est (aiōnios g166)
and this is the testimony, that life age-during did God give to us, and this — the life — is in His Son; (aiōnios g166)
12 qui habet Filium habet vitam qui non habet Filium Dei vitam non habet
he who is having the Son, hath the life; he who is not having the Son of God — the life he hath not.
13 haec scripsi vobis ut sciatis quoniam vitam habetis aeternam qui creditis in nomine Filii Dei (aiōnios g166)
These things I did write to you who are believing in the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that life ye have age-during, and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God. (aiōnios g166)
14 et haec est fiducia quam habemus ad eum quia quodcumque petierimus secundum voluntatem eius audit nos
And this is the boldness that we have toward Him, that if anything we may ask according to his will, He doth hear us,
15 et scimus quoniam audit nos quicquid petierimus scimus quoniam habemus petitiones quas postulavimus ab eo
and if we have known that He doth hear us, whatever we may ask, we have known that we have the requests that we have requested from Him.
16 qui scit fratrem suum peccare peccatum non ad mortem petet et dabit ei vitam peccantibus non ad mortem est peccatum ad mortem non pro illo dico ut roget
If any one may see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give to him life to those sinning not unto death; there is sin to death, not concerning it do I speak that he may beseech;
17 omnis iniquitas peccatum est et est peccatum non ad mortem
all unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not unto death.
18 scimus quoniam omnis qui natus est ex Deo non peccat sed generatio Dei conservat eum et malignus non tangit eum
We have known that every one who hath been begotten of God doth not sin, but he who was begotten of God doth keep himself, and the evil one doth not touch him;
19 scimus quoniam ex Deo sumus et mundus totus in maligno positus est
we have known that of God we are, and the whole world in the evil doth lie;
20 et scimus quoniam Filius Dei venit et dedit nobis sensum ut cognoscamus verum Deum et simus in vero Filio eius hic est verus Deus et vita aeterna (aiōnios g166)
and we have known that the Son of God is come, and hath given us a mind, that we may know Him who is true, and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ; this one is the true God and the life age-during! (aiōnios g166)
21 filioli custodite vos a simulacris
Little children, guard yourselves from the idols! Amen.
