1That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;
1الذي كان من البدء الذي سمعناه الذي رأيناه بعيوننا الذي شاهدناه ولمسته ايدينا من جهة كلمة الحياة.
2(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
2فان الحياة أظهرت وقد رأينا ونشهد ونخبركم بالحياة الابدية التي كانت عند الآب وأظهرت لنا.
3That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.
3الذي رأيناه وسمعناه نخبركم به لكي يكون لكم ايضا شركة معنا. واما شركتنا نحن فهي مع الآب ومع ابنه يسوع المسيح.
4And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
4ونكتب اليكم هذا لكي يكون فرحكم كاملا
5This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
5وهذا هو الخبر الذي سمعناه منه ونخبركم به ان الله نور وليس فيه ظلمة البتة.
6If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
6ان قلنا ان لنا شركة معه وسلكنا في الظلمة نكذب ولسنا نعمل الحق
7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
7ولكن ان سلكنا في النور كما هو في النور فلنا شركة بعضنا مع بعض ودم يسوع المسيح ابنه يطهرنا من كل خطية.
8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
8ان قلنا انه ليس لنا خطية نضل انفسنا وليس الحق فينا.
9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
9ان اعترفنا بخطايانا فهو امين وعادل حتى يغفر لنا خطايانا ويطهرنا من كل اثم.
10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
10ان قلنا اننا لم نخطئ نجعله كاذبا وكلمته ليست فينا
