1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we for ourselves gazed upon, and our hands did handle, concerning the Word of Life, —
Det, som var fra Begyndelsen, det, vi have hørt, det, vi have set med vore Øjne, det, vi skuede og vore Hænder følte på, nemlig om Livets Ord; -
2 And, the Life, was made manifest, and we have seen, and are bearing witness, and announcing unto you, the Age-abiding Life, which, indeed, was with the Father, and was made manifest unto us; (aiōnios g166)
og Livet blev åbenbaret, og vi have set og vidne og forkynde eder det evige Liv, som jo var hos Faderen og blev åbenbaret for os; - (aiōnios g166)
3 That which we have seen and heard, are we announcing, even unto you, in order that, ye too, may have fellowship with us, and, our own fellowship also, may be with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
hvad vi have set og hørt, forkynde vi også eder, for at også I må have Samfund med os; men vort Samfund er med Faderen og med hans Søn Jesus Kristus.
4 And, these things, are we writing, in order that, our joy, may be made full.
Og dette skrive vi til eder, for at eders Glæde må være fuldkommen.
5 And this is the message which we have heard from him, and are reporting unto you, —that, God, is, light, and in him is, no darkness at all.
Og dette er det Budskab, som vi have hørt af ham og forkynde eder, at Gud er Lys, og der er slet intet Mørke i ham.
6 If we say—We have, fellowship, with him! and, in darkness, are walking, we are dealing falsely, and not doing the truth;
Dersom vi sige, at vi have Samfund med ham, og vandre i Mørket, da lyve vi og gøre ikke Sandheden.
7 Whereas, if, in the light, we are walking, as, he, is in the light, we have, fellowship one with another, and, the blood of Jesus his Son, is cleansing us from all sin.
Men dersom vi vandre i Lyset, ligesom han er i Lyset, have vi Samfund med hverandre, og Jesu, hans Søns, Blod renser os fra al Synd.
8 If we say—Sin, have we none! we are deceiving, ourselves, and, the truth, is not in us.
Dersom vi sige, at vi ikke have Synd, bedrage vi os selv, og Sandheden er ikke i os.
9 If we are confessing our sins, faithful, is he and, righteous—that he should forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Dersom vi bekende vore Synder, er han trofast og retfærdig, så at han forlader os Synderne og renser os fra al Uretfærdighed.
10 If we say—We have not sinned! false, are we making, him, and, his word, is not in us.
Dersom vi sige, at vi ikke have syndet, gøre vi ham til en Løgner, og hans Ord er ikke i os.
