1 John 1
1 [I, John, am writing to you about] the one who existed before [there was anything else]. He is the one whom we [apostles] listened to [as he taught us!] We saw him! We ourselves looked at him and touched him! [He is the one who taught us] the message that [enables people to have eternal] life (OR, live [spiritually]).
उस ज़िन्दगी के कलाम के बारे में जो शुरू से था, और जिसे हम ने सुना और अपनी आँखों से देखा बल्कि, ग़ौर से देखा और अपने हाथों से छुआ।
2 Because he came here [to the earth] and we have seen him, we proclaim to you clearly that the one whom we have seen is the [one who] has always lived. He was [previously] with his Father in heaven, but he came to live among us. (aiōnios g166)
[ये ज़िन्दगी ज़ाहिर हुई और हम ने देखा और उसकी गवाही देते हैं, और इस हमेशा की ज़िन्दगी की तुम्हें ख़बर देते हैं जो बाप के साथ थी और हम पर ज़ाहिर हुई है]। (aiōnios g166)
3 We proclaim to you the [message about Jesus], the one whom we saw and heard, in order that you may have a close relationship with us. The ones whom we have a close relationship with are God our Father and his Son Jesus Christ.
जो कुछ हम ने देखा और सुना है तुम्हें भी उसकी ख़बर देते है, ताकि तुम भी हमारे शरीक हो, और हमारा मेल मिलाप बाप के साथ और उसके बेटे ईसा मसीह के साथ है।
4 I am writing to you about these things so that [you (will be convinced/believe]) [that they are true, and as a] result we may be completely joyful.
और ये बातें हम इसलिए लिखते है कि हमारी ख़ुशी पूरी हो जाए।
5 The message that we heard from Christ and proclaim to you is this: God is [pure in every way. He never sins. He is like] [MET] a [brilliant] light that has no darkness at all.
उससे सुन कर जो पैग़ाम हम तुम्हें देते हैं, वो ये है कि ख़ुदा नूर है और उसमें ज़रा भी तारीकी नहीं।
6 If we claim to have a close relationship with [God], but [we conduct our lives in an impure manner, that is like] living [MET] in [evil] darkness. We are lying. We are not conducting our lives according to [God’s] true message.
अगर हम कहें कि हमारा उसके साथ मेल मिलाप है और फिर तारीकी में चलें, तो हम झूठे हैं और हक़ पर 'अमल नहीं करते।
7 But living [in a pure manner], as God is [living in a pure manner] [MET] [in every way, is like living] in God’s light. If we do that, we have a close relationship with each other. Not only that, but [God] (acquits us/removes [the guilt]) [of] all our sins because [he accepts] what his Son Jesus did for us [when his] blood [flowed from his body when he died. So we should conduct our lives] ([in a manner according to what God says is pure]).
लेकिन जब हम नूर में चलें जिस तरह कि वो नूर में हैं, तो हमारा आपस में मेल मिलाप है, और उसके बेटे ईसा का ख़ून हमें तमाम गुनाह से पाक करता है।
8 Those who say they never behave sinfully are deceiving themselves, and refusing [to accept as] true [what God says about them].
अगर हम कहें कि हम बेगुनाह हैं तो अपने आपको धोखा देते हैं, और हम में सच्चाई नहीं।
9 But God will do what he says that he will do, and what he does is [always] right. So, if we confess to him that we [have behaved] sinfully, he will forgive [us for] our sins and (will free us from/remove) [the guilt of] all our sins. [Because of that], [we should confess to him that we have behaved sinfully].
अगर अपने गुनाहों का इक़रार करें, तो वो हमारे गुनाहों को मु'आफ़ करने और हमें सारी नारास्ती से पाक करने में सच्चा और 'आदिल है।
10 [Because God says that everyone has sinned], those who say/claim that they have never behaved sinfully talk [as though] God lies! They reject what God says [about us]!
अगर कहें कि हम ने गुनाह नहीं किया, तो उसे झूठा ठहराते हैं और उसका कलाम हम में नहीं है।
