1 John 3

1 See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.

And see how great is the love of the Father toward us, that sons he hath called us, and also made us! Therefore the world doth not know us, because that it hath also not known him.

2 Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.

MY beloved, now are we the sons of Aloha; and it is not manifest, as yet, what we are to become, but we know, that when he is manifested, in his likeness we are and see him, according to that which he is.

3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.

And every one who hath in him this hope, purifieth himself, as He is pure.

4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.

But whoever committeth sin doeth iniquity; for all sin is iniquity.

5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.

And you know that he was manifested to bear our sins, and sin in him is not.

6 Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.

And every one who in him abideth, sinneth not. And every one who sinneth, hath not seen him, nor known him.

7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

My sons, let no man deceive you: he who worketh righteousness is righteous, as also the Meshiha himself is righteous.

8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.

And he who doeth sin is of Satana, because that from the commencement Satana was a sinner. And for this cause did the Son of Aloha appear, that he might destroy the works of Satana.

9 Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.

Every one who is born of Aloha, sin doth not work, because that his seed is in him, and he cannot sin, because of Aloha he is born.

10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.

In this are distinguished the sons of Aloha from the sons of Satana; every one who doeth not righteousness, nor loveth his brother, is not of Aloha.

11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—

For this is the commandment which you have heard from before, that you love one another.

12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.

Not as Koen, who was from the Evil, and killed his brother. And on what account killed he him? unless that his own works were evil and his brother's righteous.

13 Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.

Do not wonder, my brethren, if the world hate you.

14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.

We know that we have passed from death unto life, by this, that we love our brethren. He who loveth not his brother, in death continueth.

15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him. (aiōnios g166)

For every one who hateth his brother is a man-killer; and we know that in no man-killer can abide the life which is eternal. (aiōnios g166)

16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.

In this we know His love toward us, that he gave himself for us; (so) also it is right for us for the sake of our brethren to give ourselves.

17 But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?

And he who hath the possession of the world, and shall see his brother that he needeth, and shall shut his compassions from him, how is there in him the love of Aloha?

18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.

My sons, let us not love one another in words and in tongue, but in works and in truth.

19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,

And by this we make known that we are of the truth, and before that he cometh we make confident our hearts.

20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.

And if our heart condemn us, how much (more) Aloha, who is greater than our heart, and knoweth every thing!

21 Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;

My beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have openness of face before Aloha.

22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.

And whatever we ask, we shall receive from him, because we keep his commandments, and do the things which are beautiful before him.

23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.

And this is his commandment, That we believe in the name of his Son Jeshu Meshiha, and love one another, as he hath commanded us.

24 He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

And he who keepeth his commandments, is kept by him, and he dwelleth in him: and by this we perceive that he dwelleth in us, by his Spirit whom he hath given to us.
