1 āditō ya āsīd yasya vāg asmābhiraśrāvi yañca vayaṁ svanētrai rdr̥ṣṭavantō yañca vīkṣitavantaḥ svakaraiḥ spr̥ṣṭavantaśca taṁ jīvanavādaṁ vayaṁ jñāpayāmaḥ|
That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
2 sa jīvanasvarūpaḥ prakāśata vayañca taṁ dr̥ṣṭavantastamadhi sākṣyaṁ dadmaśca, yaśca pituḥ sannidhāvavarttatāsmākaṁ samīpē prakāśata ca tam anantajīvanasvarūpaṁ vayaṁ yuṣmān jñāpayāmaḥ| (aiōnios g166)
(and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us); (aiōnios g166)
3 asmābhi ryad dr̥ṣṭaṁ śrutañca tadēva yuṣmān jñāpyatē tēnāsmābhiḥ sahāṁśitvaṁ yuṣmākaṁ bhaviṣyati| asmākañca sahāṁśitvaṁ pitrā tatputrēṇa yīśukhrīṣṭēna ca sārddhaṁ bhavati|
that which we have seen and heard we declare to you also, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 aparañca yuṣmākam ānandō yat sampūrṇō bhavēd tadarthaṁ vayam ētāni likhāmaḥ|
And we write these things, that our joy may be fulfilled.
5 vayaṁ yāṁ vārttāṁ tasmāt śrutvā yuṣmān jñāpayāmaḥ sēyam| īśvarō jyōtistasmin andhakārasya lēśō'pi nāsti|
This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 vayaṁ tēna sahāṁśina iti gaditvā yadyandhākārē carāmastarhi satyācāriṇō na santō 'nr̥tavādinō bhavāmaḥ|
If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie, and do not tell the truth.
7 kintu sa yathā jyōtiṣi varttatē tathā vayamapi yadi jyōtiṣi carāmastarhi parasparaṁ sahabhāginō bhavāmastasya putrasya yīśukhrīṣṭasya rudhirañcāsmān sarvvasmāt pāpāt śuddhayati|
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
8 vayaṁ niṣpāpā iti yadi vadāmastarhi svayamēva svān vañcayāmaḥ satyamatañcāsmākam antarē na vidyatē|
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 yadi svapāpāni svīkurmmahē tarhi sa viśvāsyō yāthārthikaścāsti tasmād asmākaṁ pāpāni kṣamiṣyatē sarvvasmād adharmmāccāsmān śuddhayiṣyati|
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 vayam akr̥tapāpā iti yadi vadāmastarhi tam anr̥tavādinaṁ kurmmastasya vākyañcāsmākam antarē na vidyatē|
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
