Beloved
Ἀγαπητοί,
not
μὴ
every
παντὶ
spirit
πνεύματα
believe
πιστεύετε
but
ἀλλὰ
try
δοκιμάζετε
τὰ
spirit
πνεύματα
whether
εἰ
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ
they are
ἐστιν
because
ὅτι
many
πολλοὶ
false prophets
ψευδοπροφῆται
are gone out
ἐξεληλύθασιν
into
εἰς
τὸν
the world
κόσμον
2
Hereby
ἐν
τούτῳ
know ye
γινώσκετε
τὸ
spirit
πνεῦμα
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ
Every
πᾶν
spirit
πνεῦμα
ὃ
that confesseth
ὁμολογεῖ
that Jesus
Ἰησοῦν
Christ
Χριστὸν
Hereby
ἐν
the flesh
σαρκὶ
is come
ἐληλυθότα
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ
is
ἐστιν
3
And
καὶ
every
πᾶν
spirit
πνεῦμα
that
ὃ
not
μὴ
confesseth
ὁμολογεῖ
τὸν
that Jesus
Ἰησοῦν
Christ
Χριστὸν
in
ἐν
the flesh
σαρκὶ
is come
ἔρχεται
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ
not
οὐκ
is
ἐστὶν
And
καὶ
this
τοῦτό
is
ἐστὶν
τὸ
τοῦ
that spirit of antichrist
ἀντιχρίστου
that
ὃ
ye have heard
ἀκηκόατε
that
ὅτι
is come
ἔρχεται
And
καὶ
now
νῦν
in
ἐν
τῷ
the world
κόσμῳ
is
ἐστὶν
already
ἤδη

Ye
ὑμεῖς
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ
are
ἐστε
little children
τεκνία
and
καὶ
have overcome
νενικήκατε
them
αὐτούς·
because
ὅτι
greater
μείζων
is he that is
ἐστὶν
ὁ
he that is in
ἐν
you
ὑμῖν
than
ἢ
ὁ
he that is in
ἐν
τῷ
the world
κόσμῳ
5
They
αὐτῶν
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
the world
κόσμος
are
εἰσίν·
therefore
διὰ
τοῦτο
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
the world
κόσμος
speak they
λαλοῦσιν
and
καὶ
ὁ
the world
κόσμος
They
αὐτῶν
heareth
ἀκούει

We
ἡμεῖς
Hereby
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ,
are
ἐσμεν·
ὁ
he that knoweth
γινώσκομεν
τὸν
God
Θεοῦ,
heareth
ἀκούει
us
ἡμῶν
he that
ὃς
not
οὐκ
is
ἔστιν
Hereby
ἐκ
τοῦ
God
Θεοῦ,
not
οὐκ
heareth
ἀκούει
us
ἡμῶν
Hereby
ἐκ
τούτου
he that knoweth
γινώσκομεν
τὸ
the spirit
πνεῦμα
τῆς
of truth
ἀληθείας
and
καὶ
τὸ
the spirit
πνεῦμα
τῆς
of error
πλάνης

Beloved
Ἀγαπητοί,
let us love
ἀγαπῶν
one another
ἀλλήλους
for
ὅτι
ἡ
love
ἀγάπη

and
καὶ
every one
πᾶς

is born
γεγέννηται
and
καὶ
knoweth
γινώσκει
τὸν
God
Θεόν
8
ὁ
not
μὴ
He that loveth
ἀγαπῶν
not
οὐκ
knoweth
ἔγνω
τὸν
God
Θεὸς
for
ὅτι
ὁ
God
Θεὸς

ἀγάπη
is
ἐστίν
9
In
ἐν
this
τούτῳ
was manifested
ἐφανερώθη
ἡ
the love
ἀγάπη
τοῦ
of God
Θεὸς
In
ἐν
us
ἡμῖν
because
ὅτι
τὸν
Son
υἱὸν
him
αὐτοῦ
τὸν
only begotten
μονογενῆ
sent
ἀπέσταλκεν
ὁ
of God
Θεὸς
into
εἰς
τὸν
the world
κόσμον
that
ἵνα
we might live
ζήσωμεν
through
δι'
him
αὐτοῦ
10
Herein
ἐν
τούτῳ
is
ἐστὶν
ἡ
love
ἀγάπη
that
οὐχ
not
ὅτι
we
ἡμεῖς
he loved
ἠγάπησεν
τὸν
God
Θεόν,
but
ἀλλ'
not
ὅτι
αὐτὸς
he loved
ἠγάπησεν
us
ἡμᾶς
and
καὶ
sent
ἀπέστειλεν
τὸν
Son
υἱὸν
αὐτοῦ
to be the propitiation
ἱλασμὸν
for
περὶ
τῶν
sins
ἁμαρτιῶν
our
ἡμῶν
11
Beloved
ἀγαπητοί,
if
εἰ
so
οὕτως
ὁ
God
Θεὸς
loved
ἀγαπᾶν
us
ἡμᾶς
also
καὶ
we
ἡμεῖς
ought
ὀφείλομεν

12
God

No man
οὐδεὶς
at any time
πώποτε

If
ἐὰν

ἀλλήλους
ὁ
God
Θεὸς
in
ἐν
us
ἡμῖν
dwelleth
μένει
and
καὶ
ἡ

ἀγάπη
his
αὐτοῦ
perfected
τετελειωμένη
is
ἐστὶν
in
ἐν
us
ἡμῖν
13
Hereby
ἐν
τούτῳ
know we
γινώσκομεν
because
ὅτι
Hereby
ἐν
he
αὐτοῦ
we dwell
μένομεν
and
καὶ
he
αὐτοῦ
Hereby
ἐν
us
ἡμῖν
because
ὅτι
of
ἐκ
τοῦ
Spirit
πνεύματος
he
αὐτοῦ
he hath given
δέδωκεν
us
ἡμῖν
14
And
καὶ
we
ἡμεῖς
have seen
τεθεάμεθα
And
καὶ
do testify
μαρτυροῦμεν
that
ὅτι
ὁ
the Father
πατὴρ
sent
ἀπέσταλκεν
τὸν
the Son
υἱὸν
to be the Saviour
σωτῆρα
τοῦ
of the world
κόσμου
15
Whosoever
ὃς
ἂν
shall confess
ὁμολογήσῃ
that
ὅτι
Jesus
Ἰησοῦς
is
ἐστιν
ὁ
the Son
υἱὸς
τοῦ
God
Θεῷ
ὁ
God

in
ἐν

16
And
καὶ
we
ἡμεῖς
have known
ἐγνώκαμεν
And
καὶ
believed
πεπιστεύκαμεν
τὴν
love
ἀγάπῃ
that
ἣν
hath
ἔχει
ὁ
God
Θεὸς
in

Herein

There is

He that feareth

αὐτὸς
because
ὅτι
he
αὐτὸς
first

ἠγάπησεν
us
ἡμᾶς
20
If
ἐάν
a man

say
εἴπῃ
Ὅτι
I love
ἀγαπᾶν
τὸν
God
Θεὸν
and
καὶ
τὸν
brother
ἀδελφὸν
αὐτοῦ
hateth
μισῇ
a liar
ψεύστης
he is
ἐστίν·
ὁ
for

not
μὴ
I love
ἀγαπᾶν
τὸν

ἀδελφὸν
αὐτοῦ

ὃν
he hath
ἑώρακεν
τὸν
God
Θεὸν
whom
ὃν
not
οὐχ
he hath
ἑώρακεν
how
πῶς
can
δύναται
I love
ἀγαπᾶν
21
And
καὶ
ταύτην
τὴν
commandment
ἐντολὴν
have we
ἔχομεν
from
ἀπ'
him
αὐτοῦ
That
ἵνα

he who loveth
ἀγαπᾷ

ἀγαπᾷ
And
