1 John 1
1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we did behold, and our hands did handle, concerning the Word of the Life —
That thing that was fro the bigynnyng, which we herden, which we sayn with oure iyen, which we bihelden, and oure hondis touchiden, of the word of lijf;
2 and the Life was manifested, and we have seen, and do testify, and declare to you the Life, the age-during, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us — (aiōnios g166)
and the lijf is schewid. And we sayn, and we witnessen, and tellen to you the euerlastynge lijf, that was anentis the fadir, and apperide to vs. (aiōnios g166)
3 that which we have seen and heard declare we to you, that ye also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
Therfor `we tellen to you that thing, that we seyn, and herden, that also ye haue felowschipe with vs, and oure felowschip be with the fadir, and with his sone Jhesu Crist.
4 and these things we write to you, that your joy may be full.
And we writen this thing to you, that ye haue ioye, and that youre ioye be ful.
5 And this is the message that we have heard from Him, and announce to you, that God is light, and darkness in Him is not at all;
And this is the tellyng, that we herden of hym, and tellen to you, that God is liyt, and ther ben no derknessis in him.
6 if we may say — 'we have fellowship with Him,' and in the darkness may walk — we lie, and do not the truth;
If we seien, that we han felawschip with hym, and we wandren in derknessis, we lien, and don not treuthe.
7 and if in the light we may walk, as He is in the light — we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son doth cleanse us from every sin;
But if we walken in liyt, as also he is in liyt, we han felawschip togidere; and the blood of Jhesu Crist, his sone, clensith vs fro al synne.
8 if we may say — 'we have not sin,' ourselves we lead astray, and the truth is not in us;
If we seien, that we han no synne, we disseyuen vs silf, and treuthe is not in vs.
9 if we may confess our sins, stedfast He is and righteous that He may forgive us the sins, and may cleanse us from every unrighteousness;
If we knowlechen oure synnes, he is feithful and iust, that he foryyue to vs oure synnes, and clense vs from al wickidnesse.
10 if we may say — 'we have not sinned,' a liar we make Him, and His word is not in us.
And if we seien, we han not synned, we maken hym a liere, and his word is not in vs.
