ULT 1YHN Chapter 5

1YHN 5 ©

5Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten from God, and everyone loving the one begetting also loves the one having been begotten from him. 2In this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and we keep his commandments. 3For this is the love of God, that we should keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. 4For everyone who has been begotten from God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, our faith. 5But who is the one overcoming the world, if not the one believing that Jesus is the Son of God? 6This is the one having come by water and blood: Jesus Christ—not in water alone, but in water and in blood. And the Spirit is the one testifying, because the Spirit is truth. 7For there are three who are testifying:[fn] 8the Spirit and the water and the blood, and the three are unto the one.[fn] 9If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God, that he has testified about his Son. 10The one believing in the Son of God has the testimony in him. The one not believing God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has testified about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12The one having the Son has life. The one not having the Son of God does not have life.

13I have written these things to you, the ones believing in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14And this is the confidence that we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. 15And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we may request, we know that we have the requests that we have requested from him. 16If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not towards death, he will ask, and he will give him life, for the ones sinning not towards death. There is a sin towards death; I am not saying that he should pray about that. 17All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not towards death.

18We know that everyone having been begotten from God does not sin, but the One having been begotten from God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him. 19We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the evil one. 20But we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know the True One. And we are in the True One, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. 21Little children, keep yourselves from the idols.


Some older versions read For there are three that bear witness in heaven: However, the best copies do not have this reading.

Some older versions read the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one; and there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three are as one. However, the best copies do not have this reading.
