1 My 3450 little children 5040, these things 5023 write I 1125 unto you 5213, that 2443 ye sin 264 not 3363. And 2532 if 1437 any man 5100 sin 264, we have 2192 an advocate 3875 with 4314 the Father 3962, Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 the righteous 1342:
2 And 2532 he is 2076 the propitiation 2434 for 4012 our 2257 sins 266: and 1161 not 3756 for 4012 ours 2251 only 3440, but 235 also 2532 for 4012 the sins of the whole 3650 world 2889.
3 And 2532 hereby 1722 5129 we do know 1097 that 3754 we know 1097 him 846, if 1437 we keep 5083 his 846 commandments 1785.
4 He that saith 3004, I know 1097 him 846, and 2532 keepeth 5083 not 3361 his 846 commandments 1785, is 2076 a liar 5583, and 2532 the truth 225 is 2076 not 3756 in 1722 him 5129.
5 But 1161 whoso 3739 keepeth 302 5083 his 846 word 3056, in 1722 him 5129 verily 230 is 5048 0 the love 26 of God 2316 perfected 5048: hereby 1722 5129 know we 1097 that 3754 we are 2070 in 1722 him 846.
6 He that saith 3004 he abideth 3306 in 1722 him 846 ought 3784 himself 846 also 2532 so 3779 to walk 4043, even as 2531 he 1565 walked 4043.
7 Brethren 80, I write 1125 no 3756 new 2537 commandment 1785 unto you 5213, but 235 an old 3820 commandment 1785 which 3739 ye had 2192 from 575 the beginning 746. The old 3820 commandment 1785 is 2076 the word 3056 which 3739 ye have heard 191 from 575 the beginning 746.
8 Again 3825, a new 2537 commandment 1785 I write 1125 unto you 5213, which thing 3739 is 2076 true 227 in 1722 him 846 and 2532 in 1722 you 5213: because 3754 the darkness 4653 is past 3855, and 2532 the true 228 light 5457 now 2235 shineth 5316.
9 He that saith 3004 he is 1511 in 1722 the light 5457, and 2532 hateth 3404 his 848 brother 80, is 2076 in 1722 darkness 4653 even until 2193 now 737.
10 He that loveth 25 his 848 brother 80 abideth 3306 in 1722 the light 5457, and 2532 there is 2076 none 3756 occasion of stumbling 4625 in 1722 him 846.
11 But 1161 he that hateth 3404 his 848 brother 80 is 2076 in 1722 darkness 4653, and 2532 walketh 4043 in 1722 darkness 4653, and 2532 knoweth 1492 not 3756 whither 4226 he goeth 5217, because 3754 that darkness 4653 hath blinded 5186 his 846 eyes 3788.
12 I write 1125 unto you 5213, little children 5040, because 3754 your sins 266 are forgiven 863 you 5213 for 1223 0 his 846 name's 3686 sake 1223.
13 I write 1125 unto you 5213, fathers 3962, because 3754 ye have known 1097 him that is from 575 the beginning 746. I write 1125 unto you 5213, young men 3495, because 3754 ye have overcome 3528 the wicked one 4190. I write 1125 unto you 5213, little children 3813, because 3754 ye have known 1097 the Father 3962.
14 I have written 1125 unto you 5213, fathers 3962, because 3754 ye have known 1097 him that is from 575 the beginning 746. I have written 1125 unto you 5213, young men 3495, because 3754 ye are 2075 strong 2478, and 2532 the word 3056 of God 2316 abideth 3306 in 1722 you 5213, and 2532 ye have overcome 3528 the wicked one 4190.
15 Love 25 not 3361 the world 2889, neither 3366 the things that are in 1722 the world 2889. If 1437 any man 5100 love 25 the world 2889, the love 26 of the Father 3962 is 2076 not 3756 in 1722 him 846.
16 For 3754 all 3956 that is in 1722 the world 2889, the lust 1939 of the flesh 4561, and 2532 the lust 1939 of the eyes 3788, and 2532 the pride 212 of life 979, is 2076 not 3756 of 1537 the Father 3962, but 235 is 2076 of 1537 the world 2889.
17 And 2532 the world 2889 passeth away 3855, and 2532 the lust 1939 thereof 846: but 1161 he that doeth 4160 the will 2307 of God 2316 abideth 3306 for 1519 ever 165.
18 Little children 3813, it is 2076 the last 2078 time 5610: and 2532 as 2531 ye have heard 191 that 3754 antichrist 500 shall come 2064, even 2532 now 3568 are there 1096 many 4183 antichrists 500; whereby 3606 we know 1097 that 3754 it is 2076 the last 2078 time 5610.
19 They went out 1831 from 1537 us 2257, but 235 they were 2258 not 3756 of 1537 us 2257; for 1063 if 1487 they had been 2258 of 1537 us 2257, they would 302 no doubt have continued 3306 with 3326 us 2257: but 235 they went out, that 2443 they might be made manifest 5319 that 3754 they were 1526 not 3756 all 3956 of 1537 us 2257.
20 But 2532 ye 5210 have 2192 an unction 5545 from 575 the Holy One 40, and 2532 ye know 1492 all things 3956.
21 I have 1125 0 not 3756 written 1125 unto you 5213 because 3754 ye know 1492 not 3756 the truth 225, but 235 because 3754 ye know 1492 it 846, and 2532 that 3754 no 3956 3756 lie 5579 is 2076 of 1537 the truth 225.
22 Who 5101 is 2076 a liar 5583 but 1508 he that denieth 720 that 3754 Jesus 2424 is 2076 3756 the Christ 5547? He 3778 is 2076 antichrist 500, that denieth 720 the Father 3962 and 2532 the Son 5207.
23 Whosoever 3956 denieth 720 the Son 5207, the same hath 2192 not 3761 the Father 3962: (but) he that acknowledgeth 3670 the Son 5207 hath 2192 the Father 3962 also 2532.
24 Let 3306 0 that therefore 3767 abide 3306 in 1722 you 5213, which 3739 ye 5210 have heard 191 from 575 the beginning 746. If 1437 that which 3739 ye have heard 191 from 575 the beginning 746 shall remain 3306 in 1722 you 5213, ye 5210 also 2532 shall continue 3306 in 1722 the Son 5207, and 2532 in 1722 the Father 3962.
25 And 2532 this 3778 is 2076 the promise 1860 that 3739 he 846 hath promised 1861 us 2254, even eternal 166 life 2222.
26 These 5023 things have I written 1125 unto you 5213 concerning 4012 them that seduce 4105 you 5209.
27 But 2532 the anointing 5545 which 3739 ye 5210 have received 2983 of 575 him 846 abideth 3306 in 1722 you 5213, and 2532 ye need 5532 2192 not 3756 that 2443 any man 5100 teach 1321 you 5209: but 235 as 5613 the same 846 anointing 5545 teacheth 1321 you 5209 of 4012 all things 3956, and 2532 is 2076 truth 227, and 2532 is 2076 no 3756 lie 5579, and 2532 even as 2531 it hath taught 1321 you 5209, ye shall abide 3306 in 1722 him 846.
28 And 2532 now 3568, little children 5040, abide 3306 in 1722 him 846; that 2443, when 3752 he shall appear 5319, we may have 2192 confidence 3954, and 2532 not 3361 be ashamed 153 before 575 him 846 at 1722 his 846 coming 3952.
29 If 1437 ye know 1492 that 3754 he is 2076 righteous 1342, ye know 1097 that 3754 every one 3956 that doeth 4160 righteousness 1343 is born 1080 of 1537 him 846.
