1 John 5
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God. Whoever loves the Father also loves the child who is born of him.
yīśurabhiṣiktastrāteti yaḥ kaścid viśvāsiti sa īśvarāt jātaḥ; aparaṁ yaḥ kaścit janayitari prīyate sa tasmāt jāte jane 'pi prīyate|
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and do his commandments.
vayam īśvarasya santāneṣu prīyāmahe tad anena jānīmo yad īśvare prīyāmahe tasyājñāḥ pālayāmaśca|
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous.
yata īśvare yat prema tat tadīyājñāpālanenāsmābhiḥ prakāśayitavyaṁ, tasyājñāśca kaṭhorā na bhavanti|
4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.
yato yaḥ kaścid īśvarāt jātaḥ sa saṁsāraṁ jayati kiñcāsmākaṁ yo viśvāsaḥ sa evāsmākaṁ saṁsārajayijayaḥ|
5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
yīśurīśvarasya putra iti yo viśvasiti taṁ vinā ko'paraḥ saṁsāraṁ jayati?
6 This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
so'bhiṣiktastrātā yīśustoyarudhirābhyām āgataḥ kevalaṁ toyena nahi kintu toyarudhirābhyām, ātmā ca sākṣī bhavati yata ātmā satyatāsvarūpaḥ|
7 For there are three who testify:
yato hetoḥ svarge pitā vādaḥ pavitra ātmā ca traya ime sākṣiṇaḥ santi, traya ime caiko bhavanti|
8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.
tathā pṛthivyām ātmā toyaṁ rudhirañca trīṇyetāni sākṣyaṁ dadāti teṣāṁ trayāṇām ekatvaṁ bhavati ca|
9 If we accept human testimony, the witness of God is greater; for this is God's testimony that he has testified concerning his Son.
mānavānāṁ sākṣyaṁ yadyasmābhi rgṛhyate tarhīśvarasya sākṣyaṁ tasmādapi śreṣṭhaṁ yataḥ svaputramadhīśvareṇa dattaṁ sākṣyamidaṁ|
10 He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
īśvarasya putre yo viśvāsiti sa nijāntare tat sākṣyaṁ dhārayati; īśvare yo na viśvasiti sa tam anṛtavādinaṁ karoti yata īśvaraḥ svaputramadhi yat sākṣyaṁ dattavān tasmin sa na viśvasiti|
11 The testimony is this, that God gave to us everlasting life, and this life is in his Son. (aiōnios g166)
tacca sākṣyamidaṁ yad īśvaro 'smabhyam anantajīvanaṁ dattavān tacca jīvanaṁ tasya putre vidyate| (aiōnios g166)
12 He who has the Son has the life. He who does not have God's Son does not have the life.
yaḥ putraṁ dhārayati sa jīvanaṁ dhāriyati, īśvarasya putraṁ yo na dhārayati sa jīvanaṁ na dhārayati|
13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
īśvaraputrasya nāmni yuṣmān pratyetāni mayā likhitāni tasyābhiprāyo 'yaṁ yad yūyam anantajīvanaprāptā iti jānīyāta tasyeśvaraputrasya nāmni viśvaseta ca| (aiōnios g166)
14 This is the boldness which we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
tasyāntike 'smākaṁ yā pratibhā bhavati tasyāḥ kāraṇamidaṁ yad vayaṁ yadi tasyābhimataṁ kimapi taṁ yācāmahe tarhi so 'smākaṁ vākyaṁ śṛṇoti|
15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
sa cāsmākaṁ yat kiñcana yācanaṁ śṛṇotīti yadi jānīmastarhi tasmād yācitā varā asmābhiḥ prāpyante tadapi jānīmaḥ|
16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he should ask, and he will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death. I do not say that he should make a request concerning this.
kaścid yadi svabhrātaram amṛtyujanakaṁ pāpaṁ kurvvantaṁ paśyati tarhi sa prārthanāṁ karotu teneśvarastasmai jīvanaṁ dāsyati, arthato mṛtyujanakaṁ pāpaṁ yena nākāritasmai| kintu mṛtyujanakam ekaṁ pāpam āste tadadhi tena prārthanā kriyatāmityahaṁ na vadāmi|
17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.
sarvva evādharmmaḥ pāpaṁ kintu sarvvapāṁpa mṛtyujanakaṁ nahi|
18 We know that whoever is born of God does not sin, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
ya īśvarāt jātaḥ sa pāpācāraṁ na karoti kintvīśvarāt jāto janaḥ svaṁ rakṣati tasmāt sa pāpātmā taṁ na spṛśatīti vayaṁ jānīmaḥ|
19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
vayam īśvarāt jātāḥ kintu kṛtsnaḥ saṁsāraḥ pāpātmano vaśaṁ gato 'stīti jānīmaḥ|
20 We know that the Son of God has come, and has given us an understanding, that we know 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. (aiōnios g166)
aparam īśvarasya putra āgatavān vayañca yayā tasya satyamayasya jñānaṁ prāpnuyāmastādṛśīṁ dhiyam asmabhyaṁ dattavān iti jānīmastasmin satyamaye 'rthatastasya putre yīśukhrīṣṭe tiṣṭhāmaśca; sa eva satyamaya īśvaro 'nantajīvanasvarūpaścāsti| (aiōnios g166)
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.
he priyabālakāḥ, yūyaṁ devamūrttibhyaḥ svān rakṣata| āmen|
