Hebrew Names Version HNV
Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 Behold, how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn't know us, because it didn't know him.
1
See ye what love the Father hath given to us, that children of God we may be called; because of this the world doth not know us, because it did not know Him;
2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it is not yet revealed what we will be. But we know that, when he is revealed, we will be like him; for we will see him just as he is.
2
beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
3
and every one who is having this hope on him, doth purify himself, even as he is pure.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
4
Every one who is doing the sin, the lawlessness also he doth do, and the sin is the lawlessness,
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and in him is no sin.
5
and ye have known that he was manifested that our sins he may take away, and sin is not in him;
6 Whoever remains in him doesn't sin. Whoever sins hasn't seen him, neither knows him.
6
every one who is remaining in him doth not sin; every one who is sinning, hath not seen him, nor known him.
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
7
Little children, let no one lead you astray; he who is doing the righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous,
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
8
he who is doing the sin, of the devil he is, because from the beginning the devil doth sin; for this was the Son of God manifested, that he may break up the works of the devil;
9 Whoever is born of God doesn't commit sin, because his seed remains in him; and he can't sin, because he is born of God.
9
every one who hath been begotten of God, sin he doth not, because his seed in him doth remain, and he is not able to sin, because of God he hath been begotten.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn't do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn't love his brother.
10
In this manifest are the children of God, and the children of the devil; every one who is not doing righteousness, is not of God, and he who is not loving his brother,
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;
11
because this is the message that ye did hear from the beginning, that we may love one another,
12 unlike Kayin, who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
12
not as Cain -- of the evil one he was, and he did slay his brother, and wherefore did he slay him? because his works were evil, and those of his brother righteous.
13 Don't be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
13
Do not wonder, my brethren, if the world doth hate you;
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn't love his brother remains in death.
14
we -- we have known that we have passed out of the death to the life, because we love the brethren; he who is not loving the brother doth remain in the death.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.
15
Every one who is hating his brother -- a man-killer he is, and ye have known that no man-killer hath life age-during in him remaining,
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. We ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
16
in this we have known the love, because he for us his life did lay down, and we ought for the brethren the lives to lay down;
17 But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his compassion from him, how does the love of God remain in him?
17
and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?
18 My little children, let's not love in word only, neither with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
18
My little children, may we not love in word nor in tongue, but in word and in truth!
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth, and persuade our hearts before him,
19
and in this we know that of the truth we are, and before Him we shall assure our hearts,
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
20
because if our heart may condemn -- because greater is God than our heart, and He doth know all things.
21 Beloved, if our hearts don't condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
21
Beloved, if our heart may not condemn us, we have boldness toward God,
22 and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his mitzvot and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
22
and whatever we may ask, we receive from Him, because His commands we keep, and the things pleasing before Him we do,
23 This is his mitzvah, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Yeshua the Messiah, and love one another, even as he commanded.
23
and this is His command, that we may believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and may love one another, even as He did give command to us,
24 He who keeps his mitzvot remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
24
and he who is keeping His commands, in Him he doth remain, and He in him; and in this we know that He doth remain in us, from the Spirit that He gave us.
