1.Johannes 1 | Nueva Biblia Viva

El Verbo de vida

1 Les anunciamos a ustedes la Palabra de vida que desde el principio ya existía. ¡Nosotros mismos la oímos, la vimos con nuestros propios ojos y la palpamos con nuestras manos! 2 Esa vida, que estaba con el Padre, se ha dado a conocer; y nosotros, que la experimentamos, hemos testificado de ella. 3 La predicamos a ustedes para que junto con nosotros participen también de la comunión que disfrutamos con el Padre y con Jesucristo, su Hijo. 4 Les escribimos esto para que nuestra alegría sea completa.

Caminemos en la luz

5 Este es el mensaje que Dios nos ha dado para ustedes: Dios es luz y en él no hay tinieblas. 6 Por lo tanto, si afirmamos que somos amigos suyos y seguimos viviendo en las tinieblas, mentimos y no estamos poniendo en práctica la verdad. 7 Pero si, al igual que Cristo, vivimos en la luz, entre nosotros habrá compañerismo, y la sangre de Jesucristo el Hijo de Dios nos limpiará de todo pecado. 8 Si decimos que no tenemos pecado, estamos engañándonos a nosotros mismos y no tenemos la verdad. 9 Pero si confesamos a Dios nuestros pecados, él, que es fiel y justo, nos perdonará y nos limpiará de toda maldad. 10 Si afirmamos que no hemos pecado, estamos diciendo que Dios es mentiroso, y eso muestra que su palabra no habita en nosotros.

The Word of Life

1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2 the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And we are writing these things so that our* joy may be complete.

Walking in the Light

5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
