1 Juan 1
1 Yaong buhat sa pasimula, yaong aming narinig, yaong nakita ng aming mga mata, yaong aming namasdan, at nahipo ng aming mga kamay, tungkol sa salita ng buhay;
It is of what has existed from the beginning, of what we have listened to, of what we have seen with our own eyes, of what we have witnessed and touched with our own heads, it is concerning the Logos of Life that we are now writing.
2 (At ang buhay ay nahayag, at aming nakita, at pinatotohanan, at sa inyo'y aming ibinabalita ang buhay, ang buhay na walang hanggan, na kasama ng Ama at sa atin ay nahayag); (aiōnios g166)
And the Life was made visible, and we have seen it and are bearing witness, and are bringing you word of that Eternal Life which was face to face with the Father and was made visible to us. (aiōnios g166)
3 Yaong aming nakita at narinig ay siya rin naming ibinabalita sa inyo, upang kayo naman ay magkaroon ng pakikisama sa amin: oo, at tayo ay may pakikisama sa Ama, at sa kaniyang Anak na si Jesucristo:
It is what we have seen and heard that we are announcing to you, in order that you also may have partnership with us; and our partnership is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 At ang mga bagay na ito ay aming isinusulat, upang ang ating kagalakan ay malubos.
And we are writing all this to you that our joy may be complete.
5 At ito ang pasabing aming narinig sa kaniya at sa inyo'y aming ibinabalita, na ang Dios ay ilaw, at sa kaniya'y walang anomang kadiliman.
This, then, is the message that we have heard from him, and are announcing to you, that God is light, and no darkness what ever is in him.
6 Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y may pakikisama sa kaniya at nagsisilakad tayo sa kadiliman, ay nangagbubulaan tayo, at hindi tayo nagsisigawa ng katotohanan:
If we say, "We have partnership with Him," when we are passing our life in the darkness, we are lying and are not doing the truth.
7 Nguni't kung tayo'y nagsisilakad sa liwanag, na gaya niyang nasa liwanag, ay may pakikisama tayo sa isa't isa, at nililinis tayo ng dugo ni Jesus na kaniyang Anak sa lahat ng kasalanan.
But is we are passing our life in the light, as he is in the light, we ever have partnership with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ is cleansing us from every sin.
8 Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y walang kasalanan, ay ating dinadaya ang ating sarili, at ang katotohanan ay wala sa atin.
If we say, "We have no sin," we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
9 Kung ipinahahayag natin ang ating mga kasalanan, ay tapat at banal siya na tayo'y patatawarin sa ating mga kasalanan, at tayo'y lilinisin sa lahat ng kalikuan.
But if we confess our sins, faithful is he and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all wrong-doing.
10 Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y hindi nangagkasala, ay ating ginagawang sinungaling siya, at ang kaniyang salita ay wala sa atin.
If we say, "We have not sinned," we are making him a liar, and his word is not in us.
