: 1 . That which <3739 - hos - > was from the beginning <0746 - arche - > , which <3739 - hos - > we have heard <0191 - akouo - > , which <3739 - hos - > we have seen <3708 - horao - > with our eyes <3788 - ophthalmos - > , which < 3739 - hos - > we have looked <2300 - theaomai - > upon , and our hands <5495 - cheir - > have handled <5584 - pselaphao - > , of the Word <3056 - logos - > of life <2222 - zoe - > ;

: 2 ( For the life < 2222 - zoe - > was manifested <5319 - phaneroo - > , and we have seen <3708 - horao - > [ it ] , and bear <3140 - martureo - > witness <3140 - martureo - > , and shew <0518 - apaggello - > unto you that eternal < 0166 - aionios - > life <2222 - zoe - > , which < 3748 - hostis - > was with the Father <3962 - pater - > , and was manifested <5319 - phaneroo - > unto us ; )

: 3 That which <3739 - hos - > we have seen <3708 - horao - > and heard < 0191 - akouo - > declare <0518 - apaggello - > we unto you , that ye also <2532 - kai - > may have <2192 - echo - > fellowship <2842 - koinonia - > with us : and truly <1161 - de - > our fellowship <2842 - koinonia - > [ is ] with the Father <3962 - pater - > , and with his Son <5207 - huios - > Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > .

: 4 And these <5023 - tauta - > things write <1125 - grapho - > we unto you , that your <5216 - humon - > joy <5479 - chara - > may be full <4137 - pleroo - > .

: 5 . This <3778 - houtos - > then <2532 - kai - > is the message <1860 - epaggelia - > which <3739 - hos - > we have heard < 0191 - akouo - > of him , and declare <0312 - anaggello - > unto you , that God <2316 - theos - > is light < 5457 - phos - > , and in him is no <3756 - ou - > darkness <4653 - skotia - > at <3762 - oudeis - > all <3762 - oudeis - > .

: 6 If <1437 - ean - > we say <2036 - epo - > that we have <2192 - echo - > fellowship <2842 - koinonia - > with him , and walk < 4043 - peripateo - > in darkness <4655 - skotos - > , we lie <5574 - pseudomai - > , and do <4160 - poieo - > not the truth <0225 - aletheia - > :

: 7 But if <1437 - ean - > we walk <4043 - peripateo - > in the light <5457 - phos - > , as he is in the light <5457 - phos - > , we have <2192 - echo - > fellowship <2842 - koinonia - > one <3391 - mia - > with another <0240 - allelon - > , and the blood <0129 - haima - > of Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > his Son < 5207 - huios - > cleanseth <2511 - katharizo - > us from all <3956 - pas - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > .

: 8 . If <1437 - ean - > we say <2036 - epo - > that we have <2192 - echo - > no <3756 - ou - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > , we deceive <4105 - planao - > ourselves <1438 - heautou - > , and the truth <0225 - aletheia - > is not in us .

: 9 If <1437 - ean - > we confess <3670 - homologeo - > our sins <0266 - hamartia - > , he is faithful <4103 - pistos - > and just <1342 - dikaios - > to forgive <0863 - aphiemi - > us [ our ] sins <0266 - hamartia - > , and to cleanse <2511 - katharizo - > us from all <3956 - pas - > unrighteousness <0093 - adikia - > .

: 10 If <1437 - ean - > we say <2036 - epo - > that we have not sinned < 0264 - hamartano - > , we make <4160 - poieo - > him a liar <5583 - pseustes - > , and his word <3056 - logos - > is not in us .

: 1John 2

: 1 . My little <5040 - teknion - > children <5040 - teknion - > , these < 5023 - tauta - > things write <1125 - grapho - > I unto you , that ye sin <0264 - hamartano - > not . And if < 1437 - ean - > any <5100 - tis - > man sin <0264 - hamartano - > , we have <2192 - echo - > an advocate <3875 - parakletos - > with the Father <3962 - pater - > , Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > Christ <5547 - Christos - > the righteous <1342 - dikaios - > :

: 2 And he is the propitiation <2434 - hilasmos - > for our sins <0266 - hamartia - > : and not for ours <2251 - hemeteros - > only <3440 - monon - > , but also <2532 - kai - > for [ the sins of ] the whole <3650 - holos - > world <2889 - kosmos - > .

: 3 . And hereby <5129 - toutoi - > we do know <1097 - ginosko - > that we know <1097 - ginosko - > him , if <1437 - ean - > we keep <5083 - tereo - > his commandments <1785 - entole - > .

: 4 He that saith <3004 - lego - > , I know <1097 - ginosko - > him , and keepeth <5083 - tereo - > not his commandments <1785 - entole - > , is a liar <5583 - pseustes - > , and the truth <0225 - aletheia - > is not in him .

: 5 But whoso <0302 - an - > keepeth <5083 - tereo - > his word <3056 - logos - > , in him verily <0230 - alethos - > is the love <0026 - agape - > of God <2316 - theos - > perfected <5048 - teleioo - > : hereby <5129 - toutoi - > know <1097 - ginosko - > we that we are in him .

: 6 He that saith <3004 - lego - > he abideth <3306 - meno - > in him ought < 3784 - opheilo - > himself <0846 - autos - > also < 2532 - kai - > so <3779 - houto - > to walk <4043 - peripateo - > , even <2531 - kathos - > as he walked <4043 - peripateo - > .

: 7 . Brethren <0080 - adephos - > , I write <1125 - grapho - > no <3756 - ou - > new <2537 - kainos - > commandment <1785 - entole - > unto you , but an old <3820 - palaios - > commandment <1785 - entole - > which <3739 - hos - > ye had <2192 - echo - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > . The old <3820 - palaios - > commandment <1785 - entole - > is the word <3056 - logos - > which <3739 - hos - > ye have heard <0191 - akouo - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > .

: 8 Again <3825 - palin - > , a new <2537 - kainos - > commandment <1785 - entole - > I write <1125 - grapho - > unto you , which <3739 - hos - > thing is true <0257 - halon - > in him and in you : because <3754 - hoti - > the darkness < 4653 - skotia - > is past <3855 - parago - > , and the true <0228 - alethinos - > light <5457 - phos - > now <2236 - hedista - > shineth <5316 - phaino - > .

: 9 He that saith <3004 - lego - > he is in the light <5457 - phos - > , and hateth <3404 - miseo - > his brother <0080 - adephos - > , is in darkness <4653 - skotia - > even until < 2193 - heos - > now <0737 - arti - > .

: 10 He that loveth < 0025 - agapao - > his brother <0080 - adephos - > abideth <3306 - meno - > in the light <5457 - phos - > , and there is none <3756 - ou - > occasion <4625 - skandalon - > of stumbling <4625 - skandalon - > in him .

: 11 But he that hateth < 3404 - miseo - > his brother <0080 - adephos - > is in darkness <4653 - skotia - > , and walketh <4043 - peripateo - > in darkness <4653 - skotia - > , and knoweth <1492 - eido - > not whither <4226 - pou - > he goeth <5217 - hupago - > , because <3754 - hoti - > that darkness <4653 - skotia - > hath blinded < 5186 - tuphloo - > his eyes <3788 - ophthalmos - > .

: 12 . I write <1125 - grapho - > unto you , little <5040 - teknion - > children <5040 - teknion - > , because <3754 - hoti - > your <3588 - ho - > sins <0266 - hamartia - > are forgiven <0863 - aphiemi - > you for his name s < 3686 - onoma - > sake .

: 13 I write <1125 - grapho - > unto you , fathers <3962 - pater - > , because <3754 - hoti - > ye have known <1097 - ginosko - > him [ that is ] from the beginning <0746 - arche - > . I write <1125 - grapho - > unto you , young < 3495 - neaniskos - > men <3495 - neaniskos - > , because <3754 - hoti - > ye have overcome <3528 - nikao - > the wicked <4190 - poneros - > one . I write < 1125 - grapho - > unto you , little <3813 - paidion - > children <3813 - paidion - > , because <3754 - hoti - > ye have known <1097 - ginosko - > the Father <3962 - pater - > .

: 14 I have written < 1125 - grapho - > unto you , fathers <3962 - pater - > , because <3754 - hoti - > ye have known <1097 - ginosko - > him [ that is ] from the beginning <0746 - arche - > . I have written <1125 - grapho - > unto you , young <3495 - neaniskos - > men <3495 - neaniskos - > , because <3754 - hoti - > ye are strong <2478 - ischuros - > , and the word <3056 - logos - > of God <2316 - theos - > abideth <3306 - meno - > in you , and ye have overcome <3528 - nikao - > the wicked <4190 - poneros - > one .

: 15 Love <0025 - agapao - > not the world <2889 - kosmos - > , neither < 3366 - mede - > the things [ that are ] in the world < 2889 - kosmos - > . If <1437 - ean - > any <5100 - tis - > man love <0025 - agapao - > the world <2889 - kosmos - > , the love <0026 - agape - > of the Father <3962 - pater - > is not in him .

: 16 For all <3956 - pas - > that [ is ] in the world <2889 - kosmos - > , the lust <1939 - epithumia - > of the flesh <4561 - sarx - > , and the lust <1939 - epithumia - > of the eyes <3788 - ophthalmos - > , and the pride <0212 - alazoneia - > of life <0979 - bios - > , is not of the Father <3962 - pater - > , but is of the world <2889 - kosmos - > .

: 17 And the world <2889 - kosmos - > passeth <3855 - parago - > away , and the lust <1939 - epithumia - > thereof <0846 - autos - > : but he that doeth <4160 - poieo - > the will <2307 - thelema - > of God <2316 - theos - > abideth <3306 - meno - > for ever <0165 - aion - > .

: 18 . Little <3813 - paidion - > children <3813 - paidion - > , it is the last <2078 - eschatos - > time <5610 - hora - > : and as ye have heard <0191 - akouo - > that antichrist < 0500 - antichristos - > shall come <2064 - erchomai - > , even <2532 - kai - > now <3568 - nun - > are there many <4183 - polus - > antichrists <0500 - antichristos - > ; whereby <3606 - hothen - > we know <1097 - ginosko - > that it is the last <2078 - eschatos - > time <5610 - hora - > .

: 19 They went <1831 - exerchomai - > out from us , but they were not of us ; for if <1487 - ei - > they had been <2258 - en - > of us , they would [ no doubt ] have continued <3306 - meno - > with us : but [ they went out ] , that they might be made <5319 - phaneroo - > manifest <5319 - phaneroo - > that they were not all <3956 - pas - > of us .

: 20 . But ye have <2192 - echo - > an unction <5545 - chrisma - > from the Holy <0040 - hagios - > One , and ye know <1492 - eido - > all <3956 - pas - > things .

: 21 I have not written < 1125 - grapho - > unto you because <3754 - hoti - > ye know <1492 - eido - > not the truth <0225 - aletheia - > , but because <3754 - hoti - > ye know <1492 - eido - > it , and that no <3756 - ou - > lie <5579 - pseudos - > is of the truth <0225 - aletheia - > .

: 22 Who <5101 - tis - > is a liar <5583 - pseustes - > but he that denieth <0720 - arneomai - > that Jesus <2424 - Iesous - > is the Christ <5547 - Christos - > ? He is antichrist < 0500 - antichristos - > , that denieth <0720 - arneomai - > the Father <3962 - pater - > and the Son <5207 - huios - > .

: 23 Whosoever <3588 - ho - > denieth <0720 - arneomai - > the Son <5207 - huios - > , the same <3761 - oude - > hath <2192 - echo - > not the Father <3962 - pater - > : [ ( but ) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath <2192 - echo - > the Father also <2532 - kai - > ] .

: 24 Let that therefore < 3767 - oun - > abide <3306 - meno - > in you , which <3739 - hos - > ye have heard <0191 - akouo - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > . If <1437 - ean - > that which <3739 - hos - > ye have heard <0191 - akouo - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > shall remain <3306 - meno - > in you , ye also <2532 - kai - > shall continue <3306 - meno - > in the Son <5207 - huios - > , and in the Father <3962 - pater - > .

: 25 And this <3778 - houtos - > is the promise <1860 - epaggelia - > that he hath promised <1861 - epaggello - > us , [ even ] eternal <0166 - aionios - > life <2222 - zoe - > .

: 26 These <5023 - tauta - > [ things ] have I written <1125 - grapho - > unto you concerning <4012 - peri - > them that seduce <4105 - planao - > you .

: 27 But the anointing < 5545 - chrisma - > which <3739 - hos - > ye have received <2983 - lambano - > of him abideth <3306 - meno - > in you , and ye need <5532 - chreia - > not that any <5100 - tis - > man teach <1321 - didasko - > you : but as the same <0846 - autos - > anointing < 5545 - chrisma - > teacheth <1321 - didasko - > you of all <3956 - pas - > things , and is truth <0227 - alethes - > , and is no <3756 - ou - > lie <5579 - pseudos - > , and even <2531 - kathos - > as it hath taught <1321 - didasko - > you , ye shall abide <3306 - meno - > in him .

: 28 . And now <3568 - nun - > , little <5040 - teknion - > children <5040 - teknion - > , abide <3306 - meno - > in him ; that , when <3752 - hotan - > he shall appear <5319 - phaneroo - > , we may have <2192 - echo - > confidence <3954 - parrhesia - > , and not be ashamed <0153 - aischunomai - > before <0575 - apo - > him at <1722 - en - > his coming <3952 - parousia - > .

: 29 If <1437 - ean - > ye know <1492 - eido - > that he is righteous < 1342 - dikaios - > , ye know <1097 - ginosko - > that every <3956 - pas - > one that doeth <4160 - poieo - > righteousness <1343 - dikaiosune - > is born <1080 - gennao - > of him .

: 1John 3

: 1 . Behold <1492 - eido - > , what <4217 - potapos - > manner <4217 - potapos - > of love <0026 - agape - > the Father < 3962 - pater - > hath bestowed <1325 - didomi - > upon us , that we should be called <2564 - kaleo - > the sons <5043 - teknon - > of God <2316 - theos - > : therefore <5124 - touto - > the world <2889 - kosmos - > knoweth <1097 - ginosko - > us not , because < 3754 - hoti - > it knew <1097 - ginosko - > him not .

: 2 Beloved <0027 - agapetos - > , now <3568 - nun - > are we the sons < 5043 - teknon - > of God <2316 - theos - > , and it doth not yet <3768 - oupo - > appear <5319 - phaneroo - > what <5101 - tis - > we shall be : but we know < 1492 - eido - > that , when <1437 - ean - > he shall appear <5319 - phaneroo - > , we shall be like <3664 - homoios - > him ; for we shall see <3700 - optanomai - > him as he is .

: 3 And every <3956 - pas - > man that hath <2192 - echo - > this <5026 - taute - > hope <1680 - elpis - > in him purifieth < 0048 - hagnizo - > himself <1438 - heautou - > , even <2531 - kathos - > as he is pure <0053 - hagnos - > .

: 4 . Whosoever <3588 - ho - > committeth <4160 - poieo - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > transgresseth <4160 - poieo - > also < 2532 - kai - > the law <0458 - anomia - > : for sin < 0266 - hamartia - > is the transgression <0458 - anomia - > of the law <0458 - anomia - > .

: 5 And ye know <1492 - eido - > that he was manifested <5319 - phaneroo - > to take <0142 - airo - > away our sins <0266 - hamartia - > ; and in him is no <3756 - ou - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > .

: 6 Whosoever <3588 - ho - > abideth <3306 - meno - > in him sinneth <0264 - hamartano - > not : whosoever <3588 - ho - > sinneth <0264 - hamartano - > hath not seen <3708 - horao - > him , neither <3761 - oude - > known <1097 - ginosko - > him .

: 7 Little <5040 - teknion - > children <5040 - teknion - > , let no < 3367 - medeis - > man <3367 - medeis - > deceive < 4105 - planao - > you : he that doeth <4160 - poieo - > righteousness <1343 - dikaiosune - > is righteous <1342 - dikaios - > , even <2531 - kathos - > as he is righteous <1342 - dikaios - > .

: 8 He that committeth < 4160 - poieo - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > is of the devil <1228 - diabolos - > ; for the devil <1228 - diabolos - > sinneth <0264 - hamartano - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > . For this <5124 - touto - > purpose the Son <5207 - huios - > of God <2316 - theos - > was manifested <5319 - phaneroo - > , that he might destroy <3089 - luo - > the works <2041 - ergon - > of the devil <1228 - diabolos - > .

: 9 Whosoever <3588 - ho - > is born <1080 - gennao - > of God <2316 - theos - > doth not commit <4160 - poieo - > sin <0266 - hamartia - > ; for his seed <4690 - sperma - > remaineth <3306 - meno - > in him : and he cannot <1410 - dunamai - > sin <0264 - hamartano - > , because < 3754 - hoti - > he is born <1080 - gennao - > of God <2316 - theos - > .

: 10 In this <5129 - toutoi - > the children <5043 - teknon - > of God < 2316 - theos - > are manifest <5318 - phaneros - > , and the children <5043 - teknon - > of the devil <1228 - diabolos - > : whosoever <3588 - ho - > doeth <4160 - poieo - > not righteousness <1343 - dikaiosune - > is not of God <2316 - theos - > , neither he that loveth < 0025 - agapao - > not his brother <0080 - adephos - > .

: 11 . For this <2778 - kensos - > is the message <0031 - aggelia - > that ye heard <0191 - akouo - > from the beginning <0746 - arche - > , that we should love <0025 - agapao - > one <0240 - allelon - > another <0240 - allelon - > .

: 12 Not as Cain <2535 - Kain - > , [ who ] was of that wicked <4190 - poneros - > one , and slew <4969 - sphazo - > his brother < 0080 - adephos - > . And wherefore <5101 - tis - > slew <4969 - sphazo - > he him ? Because <3754 - hoti - > his own works <2041 - ergon - > were evil <4190 - poneros - > , and his brother s <0080 - adephos - > righteous <1342 - dikaios - > .

: 13 Marvel <2296 - thaumazo - > not , my brethren <0080 - adephos - > , if <1487 - ei - > the world <2889 - kosmos - > hate <3404 - miseo - > you .

: 14 . We know <1492 - eido - > that we have passed <3327 - metabaino - > from death <2288 - thanatos - > unto life <2222 - zoe - > , because <3754 - hoti - > we love <0025 - agapao - > the brethren <0080 - adephos - > . He that loveth <0025 - agapao - > not [ his ] brother <0080 - adephos - > abideth <3306 - meno - > in death <2288 - thanatos - > .

: 15 Whosoever <3588 - ho - > hateth <3404 - miseo - > his brother <0080 - adephos - > is a murderer <0443 - anthropoktonos - > : and ye know <1492 - eido - > that no <3756 - ou - > murderer <0443 - anthropoktonos - > hath <2192 - echo - > eternal <0166 - aionios - > life <2222 - zoe - > abiding <3306 - meno - > in him .

: 16 Hereby <5129 - toutoi - > perceive <1097 - ginosko - > we the love < 0026 - agape - > [ of God ] , because <3754 - hoti - > he laid <5087 - tithemi - > down his life <5590 - psuche - > for us : and we ought <3784 - opheilo - > to lay <5087 - tithemi - > down <2597 - katabaino - > [ our ] lives <5590 - psuche - > for the brethren < 0080 - adephos - > .

: 17 But whoso <0302 - an - > hath <2192 - echo - > this <3588 - ho - > world s <2889 - kosmos - > good <0979 - bios - > , and seeth <2334 - theoreo - > his brother <0080 - adephos - > have <2192 - echo - > need <5532 - chreia - > , and shutteth <2808 - kleio - > up his bowels <4698 - splagchnon - > [ of compassion ] from him , how <4459 - pos - > dwelleth <3306 - meno - > the love <0026 - agape - > of God <2316 - theos - > in him ?

: 18 My little <5040 - teknion - > children <5040 - teknion - > , let us not love <0025 - agapao - > in word <3056 - logos - > , neither <3366 - mede - > in tongue <1100 - glossa - > ; but in deed <2041 - ergon - > and in truth <0225 - aletheia - > .

Beloved <0027 - agapetos - > , let us love <0025 - agapao - > one < 0240 - allelon - > another <0240 - allelon - > : for love <0026 - agape - > is of God <2316 - theos - > ; and every <3956 - pas - > one that loveth <0025 - agapao - > is born <1080 - gennao - > of God <2316 - theos - > , and knoweth <1097 - ginosko - > God < 2316 - theos - > .

Herein <5129 - toutoi - > is our love <0026 - agape - > made <5048 - teleioo - > perfect <5048 - teleioo - > , that we may have <2192 - echo - > boldness <3954 - parrhesia - > in the day <2250 - hemera - > of judgment <2920 - krisis - > : because <3754 - hoti - > as he is , so <2532 - kai - > are we in this <5129 - toutoi - > world <2889 - kosmos - > .

: 18 There is no <3756 - ou - > fear <5401 - phobos - > in love <0026 - agape - > ; but perfect <5046 - teleios - > love <0026 - agape - > casteth <0906 - ballo - > out fear <5401 - phobos - > : because <3754 - hoti - > fear <5401 - phobos - > hath <2192 - echo - > torment <2851 - kolasis - > . He that feareth <5399 - phobeo - > is not made <5048 - teleioo - > perfect <5048 - teleioo - > in love <0026 - agape - > .
