1Mumunti kong mga anak, ang mga bagay na ito ay isinusulat ko sa inyo upang kayo'y huwag mangagkasala. At kung ang sinoman ay magkasala, ay may Tagapamagitan tayo sa Ama, si Jesucristo ang matuwid: 2At siya ang pangpalubag-loob sa ating mga kasalanan; at hindi lamang sa ating mga kasalanan, kundi ng sa buong sanglibutan din naman. 3At sa ganito'y nalalaman natin na siya'y ating nakikilala, kung tinutupad natin ang kaniyang mga utos. 4Ang nagsasabing, Nakikilala ko siya, at hindi tumutupad ng kaniyang mga utos, ay sinungaling, at ang katotohanan ay wala sa kaniya; 5Datapuwa't ang sinomang tumutupad ng kaniyang salita, tunay na sa kaniya ay naging sakdal ang pagibig ng Dios. Dahil dito'y nalalaman nating tayo'y nasa kaniya: 6Ang nagsasabing siya'y nananahan sa kaniya ay nararapat din namang lumakad na gaya ng inilakad niya. 7Mga minamahal, wala akong isinusulat sa inyo na anomang bagong utos, kundi ang dating utos na nasa inyo buhat nang pasimula; ang dating utos ay ang salita na inyong narinig. 8Muli, isang bagong utos ang isinusulat ko sa inyo, bagay na tunay sa kaniya at sa inyo; sapagka't ang kadiliman ay lumilipas, at ang tunay na ilaw ay lumiliwanag na. 9Ang nagsasabing siya'y nasa liwanag at napopoot sa kaniyang kapatid, ay nasa kadiliman pa hanggang ngayon. 10Ang umiibig sa kaniyang kapatid ay nananahan sa liwanag, at sa kaniya'y walang anomang kadahilanang ikatitisod. 11Nguni't ang napopoot sa kaniyang kapatid ay nasa kadiliman, at lumalakad sa kadiliman, at hindi niya nalalaman kung saan siya naparoroon, sapagka't ang kaniyang mga mata ay binulag ng kadiliman. 12Kayo'y sinusulatan ko, mumunti kong mga anak, sapagka't ipinatawad sa inyo ang inyong mga kasalanan dahil sa kaniyang pangalan. 13Kayo'y sinusulatan ko, mga ama, sapagka't inyong nakikilala yaong buhat pa nang pasimula ay siya na. Kayo'y sinusulatan ko, mga binata, sapagka't inyong dinaig ang masama. Kayo'y aking sinulatan, mumunting mga anak, sapagka't inyong nakikilala ang Ama. 14Kayo'y aking sinulatan, mga ama, sapagka't inyong nakikilala yaong buhat pa nang pasimula ay siya na. Kayo'y aking sinulatan, mga binata, sapagka't kayo'y malalakas, at ang salita ng Dios ay nananahan sa inyo, at inyong dinaig ang masama. 15Huwag ninyong ibigin ang sanglibutan, ni ang mga bagay na nasa sanglibutan. Kung ang sinoman ay umiibig sa sanglibutan, ay wala sa kaniya ang pagibig ng Ama. 16Sapagka't ang lahat na nangasa sanglibutan, ang masamang pita ng laman at ang masamang pita ng mga mata at ang kapalaluan sa buhay, ay hindi mula sa Ama, kundi sa sanglibutan. 17At ang sanglibutan ay lumilipas, at ang masamang pita niyaon; datapuwa't ang gumagawa ng kalooban ng Dios ay nananahan magpakailan man. 18Mumunting mga anak, ito ang huling oras: at gaya ng inyong narinig na darating ang anticristo, kahit ngayon ay lumitaw ang marami nang anticristo; kaya nga nalalaman natin na ito na ang huling oras. 19Sila'y nangagsilabas sa atin, nguni't sila'y hindi sa atin; sapagka't kung sila'y sa atin ay nagsipanatili sana sa atin: nguni't nangagsilabas, upang sila'y mahayag na silang lahat ay hindi sa atin. 20At kayo'y may pahid ng Banal, at nalalaman ninyo ang lahat ng mga bagay. 21Hindi ko kayo sinulatan ng dahil sa hindi ninyo nalalaman ang katotohanan, kundi dahil sa inyong nalalaman, at sapagka't alin mang kasinungalingan ay hindi sa katotohanan. 22Sino ang sinungaling kundi ang tumatanggi na si Jesus ay siyang Cristo? Ito ang anticristo, sa makatuwid ay ang tumatanggi sa Ama at sa Anak. 23Ang sinomang tumatanggi sa Anak, ay hindi sumasa kaniya ang Ama: ang nagpapahayag sa Anak ay sumasa kaniya naman ang Ama. 24Tungkol sa inyo, ay manahan sa inyo ang inyong narinig buhat nang pasimula. Kung manahan sa inyo yaong buhat nang pasimula ay inyong narinig, kayo naman ay mananahan sa Anak, at sa Ama. 25At ito ang pangakong kaniyang ipinangako sa atin, ang buhay na walang hanggan. 26Isinulat ko sa inyo ang mga bagay na ito tungkol sa mga may ibig na magligaw sa inyo. 27At tungkol sa inyo, ang pagkapahid na sa kaniya'y inyong tinanggap ay nananahan sa inyo, at hindi ninyo kailangang kayo'y turuan ng sinoman; nguni't kung paanong kayo'y tinuturuan ng kaniyang pahid tungkol sa lahat ng mga bagay, at siyang totoo, at hindi kasinungalingan, at kung paanong kayo'y tinuruan nito, ay gayon kayong nananahan sa kaniya. 28At ngayon, mumunti kong mga anak, manahan kayo sa kaniya; upang, kung siya'y mahayag, ay magkaroon kayo ng pagkakatiwala, at huwag tayong mangapahiya sa harapan niya sa kaniyang pagparito. 29Kung nalalaman ninyong siya'y matuwid, nalalaman naman ninyo na ang bawa't gumagawa ng katuwiran ay ipinanganak niya.
1My little children, I write these things to you so that you may not sin. If anyone sins, we have a Counselor with the Father, Jesus Christ, the righteous. 2And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world. 3This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commandments. 4One who says, “I know him,” and doesn’t keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth isn’t in him. 5But whoever keeps his word, God’s love has most certainly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him: 6he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked. 7Brothers, I write no new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard from the beginning. 8Again, I write a new commandment to you, which is true in him and in you; because the darkness is passing away, and the true light already shines. 9He who says he is in the light and hates his brother, is in the darkness even until now. 10He who loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no occasion for stumbling in him. 11But he who hates his brother is in the darkness, and walks in the darkness, and doesn’t know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes. 12I write to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake. 13I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you know the Father. 14I have written to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God remains in you, and you have overcome the evil one. 15Don’t love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him. 16For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s. 17The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever. 18Little children, these are the end times, and as you heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen. By this we know that it is the final hour. 19They went out from us, but they didn’t belong to us; for if they had belonged to us, they would have continued with us. But they left, that they might be revealed that none of them belong to us. 20You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge. 21I have not written to you because you don’t know the truth, but because you know it, and because no lie is of the truth. 22Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the Antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son. 23Whoever denies the Son, the same doesn’t have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also. 24Therefore, as for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father. 25This is the promise which he promised us, the eternal life. 26These things I have written to you concerning those who would lead you astray. 27As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him. 28Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. 29If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.
1Mijn kinderkens, ik schrijf u deze dingen, opdat gij niet zondigt. En indien iemand gezondigd heeft, wij hebben een Voorspraak bij den Vader, Jezus Christus, den Rechtvaardige; 2En Hij is een verzoening voor onze zonden; en niet alleen voor de onze, maar ook voor de zonden der gehele wereld. 3En hieraan kennen wij, dat wij Hem gekend hebben, zo wij Zijn geboden bewaren. 4Die daar zegt: Ik ken Hem, en Zijn geboden niet bewaart, die is een leugenaar, en in dien is de waarheid niet; 5Maar zo wie Zijn Woord bewaart, in dien is waarlijk de liefde Gods volmaakt geworden; hieraan kennen wij, dat wij in Hem zijn. 6Die zegt, dat hij in Hem blijft, die moet ook zelf alzo wandelen, gelijk Hij gewandeld heeft. 7Broeders! Ik schrijf u geen nieuw gebod, maar een oud gebod, dat gij van den beginne gehad hebt; dit oud gebod is het woord, dat gij van den beginne gehoord hebt. 8Wederom schrijf ik u een nieuw gebod: hetgeen waarachtig is in Hem, zij ook in u waarachtig; want de duisternis gaat voorbij, en het waarachtige licht schijnt nu. 9Die zegt, dat hij in het licht is, en zijn broeder haat, die is in de duisternis tot nog toe. 10Die zijn broeder liefheeft, blijft in het licht, en geen ergernis is in hem. 11Maar die zijn broeder haat, is in de duisternis, en wandelt in de duisternis, en weet niet, waar hij henengaat; want de duisternis heeft zijn ogen verblind. 12Ik schrijf u, kinderkens, want de zonden zijn u vergeven om Zijns Naams wil. 13Ik schrijf u, vaders! want gij hebt Hem gekend, Die van den beginne is. Ik schrijf u, jongelingen, want gij hebt den boze overwonnen. Ik schrijf u, kinderen, want gij hebt den Vader gekend. 14Ik heb u geschreven, vaders, want gij hebt Hem gekend, Die van den beginne is. Ik heb u geschreven, jongelingen, want gij zijt sterk, en het Woord Gods blijft in u, en gij hebt den boze overwonnen. 15Hebt de wereld niet lief, noch hetgeen in de wereld is; zo iemand de wereld liefheeft, de liefde des Vaders is niet in hem. 16Want al wat in de wereld is, namelijk de begeerlijkheid des vleses, en de begeerlijkheid der ogen, en de grootsheid des levens, is niet uit den Vader, maar is uit de wereld. 17En de wereld gaat voorbij, en haar begeerlijkheid; maar die den wil van God doet, blijft in der eeuwigheid. 18Kinderkens, het is de laatste ure; en gelijk gij gehoord hebt, dat de antichrist komt, zo zijn ook nu vele antichristen geworden; waaruit wij kennen, dat het de laatste ure is. 19Zij zijn uit ons uitgegaan, maar zij waren uit ons niet; want indien zij uit ons geweest waren, zo zouden zij met ons gebleven zijn; maar dit is geschied, opdat zij zouden openbaar worden, dat zij niet allen uit ons zijn. 20Doch gij hebt de zalving van den Heilige, en gij weet alle dingen. 21Ik heb u niet geschreven, omdat gij de waarheid niet weet, maar omdat gij die weet, en omdat geen leugen uit de waarheid is. 22Wie is de leugenaar, dan die loochent, dat Jezus is de Christus? Deze is de antichrist, die den Vader en den Zoon loochent. 23Een iegelijk, die den Zoon loochent, heeft ook den Vader niet. 24Hetgeen gijlieden dan van den beginne gehoord hebt, dat blijve in u. Indien in u blijft, wat gij van den beginne gehoord hebt, zo zult gij ook in den Zoon en in den Vader blijven. 25En dit is de belofte, die Hij ons beloofd heeft, namelijk het eeuwige leven. 26Dit heb ik u geschreven van degenen, die u verleiden. 27En de zalving, die gijlieden van Hem ontvangen hebt, blijft in u, en gij hebt niet van node, dat iemand u lere; maar gelijk dezelfde zalving u leert van alle dingen, zo is zij ook waarachtig, en is geen leugen; en gelijk zij u geleerd heeft, zo zult gij in Hem blijven. 28En nu, kinderkens, blijft in Hem; opdat, wanneer Hij zal geopenbaard zijn, wij vrijmoedigheid hebben, en wij van Hem niet beschaamd gemaakt worden in Zijn toekomst. 29Indien gij weet, dat Hij rechtvaardig is, zo weet gij, dat een iegelijk, die de rechtvaardigheid doet, uit Hem geboren is.
