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;
That which was from the beginning, which we have listened to, which we have seen with our own eyes, and our own hands have handled concerning the Word of Life--
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)
the Life was manifested, and we have seen and bear witness, and we declare unto you the Life of the Ages which was with the Father and was manifested 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:
that which we have seen and listened to we now announce to you also, in order that you also may have fellowship in it with us, and this fellowship with us is fellowship 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 write these things in order that our joy may be made 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 is the Message which we have heard from the Lord Jesus and now deliver to you--God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness.
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, while we are living in darkness, we profess to have fellowship with Him, we speak falsely and are not adhering to 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 if we live 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 Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y walang kasalanan, ay ating dinadaya ang ating sarili, at ang katotohanan ay wala sa atin.
If we claim to be already free from sin, we lead ourselves astray and the truth has no place in our hearts.
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.
If we confess our sins, He is so faithful and just that He forgives us our sins and cleanses us from all unrighteousness.
10 Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y hindi nangagkasala, ay ating ginagawang sinungaling siya, at ang kaniyang salita ay wala sa atin.
If we deny that we have sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Message has no place in our hearts.
