1Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.1Πᾶς πιστεύων ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν Χριστὸς ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ γεγέννηται καὶ πᾶς ἀγαπῶν τὸν γεννήσαντα ἀγαπᾷ ‹καὶ› τὸν γεγεννημένον ἐξ αὐτοῦ
2This is how we know that we love the children of God: by loving God and carrying out his commands.2ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τὰ τέκνα τοῦ Θεοῦ ὅταν τὸν Θεὸν ἀγαπῶμεν καὶ τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ποιῶμεν
3In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome,3αὕτη γάρ ἐστιν ἀγάπη τοῦ Θεοῦ ἵνα τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηρῶμεν καὶ αἱ ἐντολαὶ αὐτοῦ βαρεῖαι οὐκ εἰσίν
4for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.4ὅτι πᾶν τὸ γεγεννημένον ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ νικᾷ τὸν κόσμον καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν νίκη νικήσασα τὸν κόσμον πίστις ἡμῶν
5Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.5Τίς ‹δέ› ἐστιν νικῶν τὸν κόσμον εἰ μὴ πιστεύων ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ἐστιν Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ
6This is the one who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.6οὗτός ἐστιν ἐλθὼν δι’ ὕδατος καὶ αἵματος Ἰησοῦς Χριστός οὐκ ἐν τῷ ὕδατι μόνον ἀλλ’ ἐν τῷ ὕδατι καὶ ἐν τῷ αἵματι καὶ τὸ Πνεῦμά ἐστιν τὸ μαρτυροῦν ὅτι τὸ Πνεῦμά ἐστιν ἀλήθεια
7For there are three that testify:7ὅτι τρεῖς εἰσιν οἱ μαρτυροῦντες {εν τῷ οὐρανῷ πατήρ λόγος καὶ τὸ Ἅγιον Πνεῦμα καὶ οὗτοι οἱ τρεῖς ἕν εἰσι}
8the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.8τὸ Πνεῦμα καὶ τὸ ὕδωρ καὶ τὸ αἷμα καὶ οἱ τρεῖς εἰς τὸ ἕν εἰσιν
9We accept human testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son.9Εἰ τὴν μαρτυρίαν τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαμβάνομεν μαρτυρία τοῦ Θεοῦ μείζων ἐστίν ὅτι αὕτη ἐστὶν μαρτυρία τοῦ Θεοῦ ὅτι μεμαρτύρηκεν περὶ τοῦ Υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ
10Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son.10 πιστεύων εἰς τὸν Υἱὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ ἔχει τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἐν αὑτῷ μὴ πιστεύων τῷ Θεῷ ψεύστην πεποίηκεν αὐτόν ὅτι οὐ πεπίστευκεν εἰς τὴν μαρτυρίαν ἣν μεμαρτύρηκεν Θεὸς περὶ τοῦ Υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ
11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.11Καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν μαρτυρία ὅτι ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἔδωκεν «ὁ Θεὸς» ἡμῖν καὶ αὕτη ζωὴ ἐν τῷ Υἱῷ αὐτοῦ ἐστιν
12Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.12 ἔχων τὸν Υἱὸν ἔχει τὴν ζωήν μὴ ἔχων τὸν Υἱὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ τὴν ζωὴν οὐκ ἔχει
13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.13Ταῦτα ἔγραψα ὑμῖν ἵνα εἰδῆτε ὅτι ζωὴν ἔχετε αἰώνιον τοῖς πιστεύουσιν εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ Υἱοῦ τοῦ Θεοῦ ⧼καὶ ἵνα πιστεύητε εἰς τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ θεοῦ⧽
14This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.14Καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν παρρησία ἣν ἔχομεν πρὸς αὐτόν ὅτι ἐάν τι αἰτώμεθα κατὰ τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ ἀκούει ἡμῶν
15And if we know that he hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of him.15καὶ ἐὰν οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἀκούει ἡμῶν ἐὰν αἰτώμεθα οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἔχομεν τὰ αἰτήματα ᾐτήκαμεν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ
16If you see any brother or sister commit a sin that does not lead to death, you should pray and God will give them life. I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death. I am not saying that you should pray about that.16Ἐάν τις ἴδῃ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἁμαρτάνοντα ἁμαρτίαν μὴ πρὸς θάνατον αἰτήσει καὶ δώσει αὐτῷ ζωήν τοῖς ἁμαρτάνουσιν μὴ πρὸς θάνατον ἔστιν ἁμαρτία πρὸς θάνατον οὐ περὶ ἐκείνης λέγω ἵνα ἐρωτήσῃ
17All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.17πᾶσα ἀδικία ἁμαρτία ἐστίν καὶ ἔστιν ἁμαρτία οὐ πρὸς θάνατον
18We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one cannot harm them.18Οἴδαμεν ὅτι πᾶς γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει ἀλλ’ γεννηθεὶς ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ τηρεῖ αὐτόν καὶ πονηρὸς οὐχ ἅπτεται αὐτοῦ
19We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.19οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ ἐσμεν καὶ κόσμος ὅλος ἐν τῷ πονηρῷ κεῖται
20We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.20οἴδαμεν δὲ ὅτι Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ ἥκει καὶ δέδωκεν ἡμῖν διάνοιαν ἵνα γινώσκωμεν* τὸν ἀληθινόν καὶ ἐσμὲν ἐν τῷ ἀληθινῷ ἐν τῷ Υἱῷ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ Χριστῷ οὗτός ἐστιν ἀληθινὸς Θεὸς καὶ ζωὴ αἰώνιος
21Dear children, keep yourselves from idols.21Τεκνία φυλάξατε ἑαυτὰ ἀπὸ τῶν εἰδώλων ⧼Ἀμήν⧽
