Jāņa 1. Vēstule 3
1 Redziet, kādu lielu mīlestību Tas Tēvs mums ir parādījis, ka mēs topam saukti Dieva bērni. Tāpēc pasaule mūs nepazīst, ka tā Viņu nepazīst.
See ye what love the Father hath given to us, that children of God we may be called; because of this the world doth not know us, because it did not know Him;
2 Mīļie, tagad mēs esam Dieva bērni, un vēl nav atspīdējis, kas mēs būsim; bet mēs zinām, ka, kad Tas atspīdēs, mēs Viņam būsim līdzīgi, jo mēs Viņu redzēsim, kāds Viņš ir.
beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;
3 Un ikviens, kam šī cerība uz Viņu, šķīsta sevi pašu, tā kā Viņš ir šķīsts.
and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.
4 Ikviens, kas grēku dara, tas dara arī netaisnību, un grēks ir netaisnība.
Every one who is doing the sin, the lawlessness also he doth do, and the sin is the lawlessness,
5 Un jūs zināt, ka Viņš ir parādījies, lai Viņš mūsu grēkus atņemtu, un iekš Viņa nav grēka.
and ye have known that he was manifested that our sins he may take away, and sin is not in him;
6 Ikviens, kas iekš Viņa paliek, tas negrēko; ikviens, kas grēko, Viņu nav redzējis, nedz Viņu atzinis.
every one who is remaining in him doth not sin; every one who is sinning, hath not seen him, nor known him.
7 Bērniņi, lai neviens jūs nepieviļ: kas taisnību dara, tas ir taisns, tā kā Viņš ir taisns.
Little children, let no one lead you astray; he who is doing the righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous,
8 Kas grēku dara, tas ir no velna, jo velns grēko no iesākuma. Tādēļ Dieva Dēls ir atspīdējis, ka Viņš velna darbus izārdītu.
he who is doing the sin, of the devil he is, because from the beginning the devil doth sin; for this was the Son of God manifested, that he may break up the works of the devil;
9 Ikviens, kas no Dieva piedzimis, tas nedara grēku, jo Viņa sēkla paliek iekš tā un tas nevar grēkot, jo tas no Dieva ir piedzimis.
every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been begotten.
10 Pie tam top zināmi Dieva bērni un velna bērni. Ikkatrs, kas taisnību nedara, tas nav no Dieva, un kas nemīl savu brāli.
In this manifest are the children of God, and the children of the devil; every one who is not doing righteousness, is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother,
11 Jo šī ir tā sludināšana, ko jūs no iesākuma esat dzirdējuši, lai mēs cits citu mīlējam;
because this is the message that ye did hear from the beginning, that we may love one another,
12 Ne tā kā Kains, kas bija no tā ļaunā un savu brāli nokāva. Un kādēļ viņš to nokāva? Tāpēc ka viņa darbi bija ļauni, bet viņa brāļa darbi taisni.
not as Cain — of the evil one he was, and he did slay his brother, and wherefore did he slay him? because his works were evil, and those of his brother righteous.
13 Nebrīnāties, mani brāļi, ja pasaule jūs ienīst.
Do not wonder, my brethren, if the world doth hate you;
14 Mēs zinām, ka esam pārcelti no nāves uz dzīvību, tāpēc ka mēs tos brāļus mīlējam; kas nemīl, tas paliek nāvē.
we — we have known that we have passed out of the death to the life, because we love the brethren; he who is not loving the brother doth remain in the death.
15 Ikviens, kas savu brāli ienīst, tas ir slepkava, un jūs zināt, ka nevienam slepkavam mūžīga dzīvība nav paliekama iekš viņa. (aiōnios g166)
Every one who is hating his brother — a man-killer he is, and ye have known that no man-killer hath life age-during in him remaining, (aiōnios g166)
16 Pie tam mēs esam atzinuši mīlestību, ka Viņš Savu dzīvību par mums ir nodevis, un mums arīdzan pienākas dzīvību nodot par tiem brāļiem.
in this we have known the love, because he for us his life did lay down, and we ought for the brethren the lives to lay down;
17 Bet ja kādam ir šās pasaules manta, un tas redz savu brāli trūkumu ciešam un aizslēdz savu sirdi priekš viņa, kā Dieva mīlestība paliek iekš tāda?
and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him — how doth the love of God remain in him?
18 Mani bērniņi, lai mēs nemīlējam ar vārdiem, nedz ar mēli, bet ar darbiem un ar patiesību.
My little children, may we not love in word nor in tongue, but in word and in truth!
19 Un pie tam mēs atzīstam, ka esam no patiesības, un savas sirdis Viņa priekšā varam klusināt,
and in this we know that of the truth we are, and before Him we shall assure our hearts,
20 Ka, ja mūsu sirds mūs pazudina, Dievs ir lielāks nekā mūsu sirds un zin visas lietas.
because if our heart may condemn — because greater is God than our heart, and He doth know all things.
21 Mīļie, ja mūsu sirds mūs nepazudina, tad mums ir drošība pie Dieva.
Beloved, if our heart may not condemn us, we have boldness toward God,
22 Un ko vien mēs lūdzam, to no Viņa dabūjam, jo mēs turam Viņa baušļus un darām, kas Viņa priekšā ir patīkams.
and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because His commands we keep, and the things pleasing before Him we do,
23 Un šis ir Viņa bauslis, lai mēs ticam Viņa Dēla Jēzus Kristus Vārdam un lai cits citu mīlējam, tā kā Viņš mums bausli ir devis.
and this is His command, that we may believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and may love one another, even as He did give command to us,
24 Un kas Viņa baušļus tur, tas paliek iekš Viņa un Viņš iekš tā. Un pie tam atzīstam, ka Viņš iekš mums paliek, no Tā Gara, ko Viņš mums devis.
and he who is keeping His commands, in Him he doth remain, and He in him; and in this we know that He doth remain in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.
