1 John 3 | English Standard Version

English Standard Version

1 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. (Joh 1:12; Joh 3:16; Joh 16:3; Joh 17:25; 1Jo 4:10; 1Jo 4:17)

Joh 1:12Joh 3:16Joh 16:3Joh 17:251Jo 4:101Jo 4:17

2 Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears^[1] we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. (Joh 17:24; Ro 8:15; Ro 8:18; Ro 8:29; 1Co 13:12; 2Co 3:18; 2Co 4:11; 2Co 4:17; Ga 3:26; Eph 1:5; Php 3:21; 2Pe 1:4; 1Jo 2:28; 1Jo 3:1; Re 22:4)

3 And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. (Ro 15:12; 2Co 7:1) 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. (Ro 4:15; 1Jo 5:17) 5 You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. (Isa 53:11; Heb 9:26; 1Pe 2:22; 1Jo 1:2)

Isa 53:11Heb 9:261Pe 2:221Jo 1:2

6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. (1Jo 2:4; 1Jo 4:8; 3Jo 1:11) 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. (1Jo 2:26; 1Jo 2:29) 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil. (Ge 3:15; Mt 13:38; Lu 10:18; Joh 8:44; Joh 16:11; Heb 2:14)

Ge 3:15Mt 13:38Lu 10:18Joh 8:44Joh 16:11Heb 2:14

9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s^[2] seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God. (1Jo 5:18) 10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. (1Jo 4:8; 1Jo 4:20)

Love One Another

11 For this is the message that you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. (Joh 13:34; 1Jo 1:5; 1Jo 2:24) 12 We should not be like Cain, who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous. (Ge 4:4; Ge 4:8; Ps 38:20; Pr 29:10; Heb 11:4; Jud 1:11)

Ge 4:4Ge 4:8Ps 38:20Pr 29:10Heb 11:4Jud 1:11

13 Do not be surprised, brothers,^[3] that the world hates you. (Joh 15:18; Joh 17:14) 14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. (Joh 5:24) 15 Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. (Mt 5:21; Ga 5:21; Re 21:8) 16 By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. (Joh 15:13; Php 2:17) 17 But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? (De 15:7; Jas 2:15; 1Jo 4:20) 18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. (Eze 33:31; Eph 4:15; 2Jo 1:1; 3Jo 1:1)

Eze 33:31Eph 4:152Jo 1:13Jo 1:1

19 By this we shall know that we are of the truth and reassure our heart before him; 20 for whenever our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything. 21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; (Job 11:15; Job 22:26; Ro 14:22; 1Co 4:4; 1Jo 5:14)

Job 11:15Job 22:26Ro 14:221Co 4:41Jo 5:14

22 and whatever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. (Mt 7:7; Joh 8:29) 23 And this is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us. (Joh 6:29; Ac 18:8; 1Jo 2:8; 1Jo 3:11)

Joh 6:29Ac 18:81Jo 2:81Jo 3:11

24 Whoever keeps his commandments abides in God,^[4] and God^[5] in him. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit whom he has given us. (Joh 6:56; Joh 14:20; Joh 15:4; Joh 17:21; Ro 8:9; 1Jo 4:13)

Да живеем като Божии чеда

1 Вижте каква любов ни е дал Отец, да се наречем Божии деца; а такива и сме. Затова светът не познава нас, защото Него не позна. (Joh 1:12; Joh 15:18; Joh 15:19; Joh 16:3; Joh 17:25)

Joh 1:12Joh 15:18Joh 15:19Joh 16:3Joh 17:25

2 Възлюбени, сега сме Божии деца и още не е станало явно какво ще бъдем; но знаем, че когато стане явно, ще бъдем подобни на Него, защото ще Го видим, Какъвто е. (Job 19:26; Ps 16:11; Isa 56:5; Mt 5:8; Ro 8:15; Ro 8:18; Ro 8:29; 1Co 13:12; 1Co 15:49; Ga 3:26; Ga 4:6; Php 3:21; Col 3:4; 2Pe 1:4; 1Jo 5:1)

Скъсване с греха

3 И всеки, който има тази надежда в Него, очиства себе си, както Той е чист. (2Co 7:1; 1Jo 4:17)

2Co 7:11Jo 4:17

4 Всеки, който върши грях, върши и беззаконие, защото грехът е беззаконие; (Ro 4:15; 1Jo 5:17) 5 и вие знаете, че Той се яви да носи греховете. В Него няма грях. (Isa 53:5; Isa 53:6; Isa 53:11; 2Co 5:21; 1Ti 1:15; Heb 1:3; Heb 4:15; Heb 9:26; Heb 9:28; 1Pe 2:22; 1Pe 2:24)

6 Всеки, който пребъдва в Него, не съгрешава; всеки, който съгрешава, не Го е видял, нито Го е познал. (1Jo 2:4; 1Jo 4:8; 3Jo 1:11)

1Jo 2:41Jo 4:83Jo 1:11

7 Дечица, никой да не ви заблуждава: който върши правда, е праведен, и Христос е праведен. (Eze 18:5; Ro 2:13; 1Jo 2:26; 1Jo 2:29)

Eze 18:5Ro 2:131Jo 2:261Jo 2:29

8 Който върши грях, от дявола е; защото дяволът отначало съгрешава. Затова се яви Божият Син, да съсипе делата на дявола. (Ge 3:15; Mt 13:38; Lu 10:18; Joh 8:44; Joh 16:11; Heb 2:14)

Ge 3:15Mt 13:38Lu 10:18Joh 8:44Joh 16:11Heb 2:14

9 Никой, който е роден от Бога, не върши грях, защото Неговият зародиш пребъдва в него; и не може да съгрешава, защото е роден от Бога. (1Pe 1:23; 1Jo 5:18) 10 По това се разпознават Божиите чеда и дяволските чеда; всеки, който не върши правда, не е от Бога, нито онзи, който не обича брат си. (1Jo 2:29; 1Jo 4:8)

Живот в любов

11 Защото поръчението, което чухте отначало, е това: Да се обичаме един друг; (Joh 13:34; Joh 15:12; 1Jo 2:7; 1Jo 3:23; 1Jo 4:7; 1Jo 4:21; 2Jo 1:5)

Joh 13:34Joh 15:121Jo 2:71Jo 3:231Jo 4:71Jo 4:212Jo 1:5

12 и да не бъдем както Каин, който беше от лукавия и уби брат си. И защо го уби? Защото неговите дела бяха нечестиви, а на брат му – праведни. (Ge 4:4; Ge 4:8; Mt 23:35; Heb 11:4; Jud 1:11)

Ge 4:4Ge 4:8Mt 23:35Heb 11:4Jud 1:11

13 Недейте се чуди, братя, ако светът ви мрази. (Joh 15:18; Joh 15:19; Joh 17:14; 2Ti 3:12)

Joh 15:18Joh 15:19Joh 17:142Ti 3:12

14 Ние знаем, че сме преминали от смърт в живот, защото обичаме братята. Който не обича, остава в смърт. (Le 19:17; Eph 2:5; 1Jo 2:9; 1Jo 2:10; 1Jo 2:11)

Le 19:17Eph 2:51Jo 2:91Jo 2:101Jo 2:11

15 Всеки, който мрази брат си, е човекоубиец; и вие знаете, че у никой човекоубиец не пребъдва вечен живот. (Mt 5:21; Mt 5:22; 1Jo 4:20; Re 21:8)

Mt 5:21Mt 5:221Jo 4:20Re 21:8

16 По това познаваме любовта, че Той даде живота Си за нас. Така и ние сме длъжни да дадем живота си за братята. (Joh 3:16; Joh 15:13; Ro 5:8; Eph 5:2; Eph 5:25; 1Jo 4:9; 1Jo 4:11)

Joh 3:16Joh 15:13Ro 5:8Eph 5:2Eph 5:251Jo 4:91Jo 4:11

17 Но ако някой, който има благата на този свят, вижда брат си в нужда, а заключи сърцето си за него, как ще пребъдва в него Божията любов? (De 15:7; De 15:8; Lu 3:11; Jas 2:15; 1Jo 4:20)

De 15:7De 15:8Lu 3:11Jas 2:151Jo 4:20

18 Дечица, да не обичаме с думи, нито с език, но с дело и в действителност. (Eze 33:31; Ro 12:9; Eph 4:15; Eph 4:17; Jas 2:15; Jas 2:16; 1Pe 1:22)

Eze 33:31Ro 12:9Eph 4:15Eph 4:17Jas 2:15Jas 2:161Pe 1:22

19 По това ще познаем, че сме от истината, и ще уверим сърцето си пред Него (Joh 18:37; 1Jo 1:8) 20 относно всичко, в което нашето сърце ни осъжда; защото Бог е по-голям от сърцето ни и знае всичко. (1Co 4:4) 21 Възлюбени, ако нашето сърце не ни осъжда, имаме дръзновение спрямо Бога; (Job 22:26; Heb 10:22; 1Jo 2:28; 1Jo 4:17)

Job 22:26Heb 10:221Jo 2:281Jo 4:17

22 и каквото и да поискаме, получаваме от Него, защото пазим заповедите Му и вършим това, което е угодно пред Него. (Ps 34:15; Ps 145:18; Ps 145:19; Pr 15:29; Jer 29:12; Mt 7:8; Mt 21:22; Mr 11:24; Joh 8:29; Joh 9:31; Joh 14:13; Joh 15:7; Joh 16:23; Joh 16:24; Jas 5:16; 1Jo 5:14)

23 И това е Неговата заповед – да вярваме в името на Неговия Син Исус Христос и да се обичаме един друг, както ни е заповядал. (Mt 22:39; Joh 6:29; Joh 13:34; Joh 15:12; Joh 17:3; Eph 5:2; 1Th 4:9; 1Pe 4:8; 1Jo 2:8; 1Jo 2:10; 1Jo 3:11; 1Jo 4:21)

24 И който пази Неговите заповеди, пребъдва в Бога и Бог – в него; и по това познаваме, че Той пребъдва в нас – по Духа, който ни е дал. (Joh 14:23; Joh 15:10; Ro 8:9; 1Jo 4:12; 1Jo 4:13)
