Chapter 5

¹ Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God. And every one that loveth him who begot, loveth him also who is born of him.
² In this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God, and keep his commandments.
³ For this is the charity of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not heavy.
⁴ For whatsoever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith.
⁵ Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
⁶ This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ: not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit which testifieth, that Christ is the truth.
⁷ And there are three who give testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost. And these three are one.
⁸ And there are three that give testimony on earth: the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three are one.
⁹ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God, which is greater, because he hath testified of his Son.
¹⁰ He that believeth in the Son of God, hath the testimony of God in himself. He that believeth not the Son, maketh him a liar: because he believeth not in the testimony which God hath testified of his Son.
¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life. And this life is in his Son.
¹² He that hath the Son, hath life. He that hath not the Son, hath not life.
¹³ These things I write to you, that you may know that you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.
¹⁴ And this is the confidence which we have towards him: That, whatsoever we shall ask according to his will, he heareth us.
¹⁵ And we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask: we know that we have the petitions which we request of him.
¹⁶ He that knoweth his brother to sin a sin which is not to death, let him ask, and life shall be given to him, who sinneth not to death. There is a sin unto death: for that I say not that any man ask.
¹⁷ All iniquity is sin. And there is a sin unto death.
¹⁸ We know that whosoever is born of God, sinneth not: but the generation of God preserveth him, and the wicked one toucheth him not.
¹⁹ We know that we are of God, and the whole world is seated in wickedness.
²⁰ And we know that the Son of God is come: and he hath given us understanding that we may know the true God, and may be in his true Son. This is the true God and life eternal.
²¹ Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

Chapter 5

¹ Whoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat, loveth him also that is begotten by him.
² By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.
⁴ For whatever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
⁵ Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
⁶ This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth testimony, because the Spirit is truth.
⁷ For there are three that bear testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.
⁸ And there are three that bear testimony on earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
⁹ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God which he hath testified of his Son.
¹⁰ He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God, hath made him a liar, because he hath not believed the testimony that God gave of his Son.
¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life: and this life is in his Son.
¹² He that hath the Son, hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God, hath not life.
¹³ These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
¹⁴ And this is the confidence that we have in him, that if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
¹⁵ And if we know that he heareth us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired from him.
¹⁶ If any man shall see his brother sin a sin which is not to death, he shall ask, and he will give him life for them that sin not to death. There is a sin to death: I do not say that he shall pray for it.
¹⁷ All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not to death.
¹⁸ We know that whoever is born of God, sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God, keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
¹⁹ And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness.
²⁰ And we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
²¹ Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

Chapter 5

¹ Every one that believes that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God; and every one that loves him that has begotten loves also him that is begotten of him.
² Hereby know we that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep his commandments.
³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments; and his commandments are not grievous.
⁴ For all that has been begotten of God gets the victory over the world; and this is the victory which has gotten the victory over the world, our faith.
⁵ Who is he that gets the victory over the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
⁶ This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus [the] Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, for the Spirit is the truth.
⁷ For they that bear witness are three:
⁸ the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; and the three agree in one.
⁹ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For this is the witness of God [which] he has witnessed concerning his Son.
¹⁰ He that believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself; he that does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the witness which God has witnessed concerning his Son.
¹¹ And this is the witness, that God has given to us eternal life; and this life is in his Son.
¹² He that has the Son has life: he that has not the Son of God has not life.
¹³ These things have I written to you that ye may know that ye have eternal life who believe on the name of the Son of God.
¹⁴ And this is the boldness which we have towards him, that if we ask him anything according to his will he hears us.
¹⁵ And if we know that he hears us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
¹⁶ If any one see his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life, for those that do not sin unto death. There is a sin to death: I do not say of that that he should make a request.
¹⁷ Every unrighteousness is sin; and there is a sin not to death.
¹⁸ We know that every one begotten of God does not sin, but he that has been begotten of God keeps himself, and the wicked [one] does not touch him.
¹⁹ We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the wicked [one].
²⁰ And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding that we should know him that [is] true; and we are in him that [is] true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
²¹ Children, keep yourselves from idols.

¹ Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is begotten of God: and whosoever loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.
² Hereby we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and do his commandments.
³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

⁸ For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and the three agree in one.
⁹ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for the witness of God is this, that he hath borne witness concerning his Son.
¹⁰ He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in him: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he hath not believed in the witness that God hath borne concerning his Son.

Chapter 5

¹ Everyone who has faith that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God: and everyone who has love for the Father has love for his child.
² In this way, we are certain that we have love for the children of God, when we have love for God and keep his laws.
³ For loving God is keeping his laws: and his laws are not hard.
⁴ Anything which comes from God is able to overcome the world: and the power by which we have overcome the world is our faith.
⁵ Who is able to overcome the world but the man who has faith that Jesus is the Son of God?
⁶ This is he who came by water and by blood, Jesus Christ; not by water only but by water and by blood.
⁷ And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is true.
⁸ There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood: and all three are in agreement.
⁹ If we take the witness of men to be true, the witness of God is greater: because this is the witness which God has given about his Son.
¹⁰ He who has faith in the Son of God has the witness in himself: he who has not faith in God makes him false, because he has not faith in the witness which God has given about his Son.
¹¹ And his witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
¹² He who has the Son has the life; he who has not the Son of God has not the life.
¹³ I have put these things in writing for you who have faith in the name of the Son of God, so that you may be certain that you have eternal life.
¹⁴ And we are certain that if we make any request to him which is right in his eyes, he will give ear to us:
¹⁵ And if we are certain that he gives ear to all our requests, we are equally certain that we will get our requests.
¹⁶ If a man sees his brother doing a sin which is not bad enough for death, let him make a prayer to God, and God will give life to him whose sin was not bad enough for death. There is a sin whose punishment is death: I do not say that he may make such a request then.
¹⁷ All evil-doing is sin: but death is not the punishment for every sort of sin.
¹⁸ We are certain that one who is a child of God will do no sin, but the Son of God keeps him so that he is not touched by the Evil One.
¹⁹ We are certain that we are of God, but all the world is in the power of the Evil One.
²⁰ And we are certain that the Son of God has come, and has given us a clear vision, so that we may see him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
²¹ My little children, keep yourselves from false gods.
