1.Johannes 1 | Nádej pre kazdého

1 Prinášame vám a dosvedčujeme zvesť o tom, čo bolo od počiatku: o Ježišovi, ktorý je živým Slovom – viditeľným prejavom Otcovho večného života.

2 Počuli sme ho, videli sme ho, sledovali sme ho, dotýkali sme sa ho.

3 Podávame vám o tom správu, aby ste mali spolu s nami účasť na spoločenstve, ktoré máme s Otcom a s jeho Synom Ježišom Kristom,

4 aby sa tým naša radosť vzájomne znásobila.

Máme žiť v Božom svetle

5 Odovzdávame vám posolstvo, ktoré sme prijali od Krista. Boh je svetlo a niet v ňom nijakej tmy.

6 Ak tvrdíme, že žijeme v spojení s Bohom, a pritom chodíme v tme, klameme a náš život je nepravdivý.

7 Ale ak stále žijeme vo svetle Božej prítomnosti, krv Ježiša Krista, jeho Syna, nás očisťuje od každého hriechu a nič nenarúša náš vzájomný vzťah.

8 Ale ak tvrdíme, že nehrešíme, klameme sami seba a nechceme si pripustiť pravdu.

9 Ak však vyznávame svoje hriechy, smieme sa spoľahnúť na Božie sľuby, že nás očisťuje od každej nečistoty a odpustí nám každé zlyhanie.

10 Ale ak hovoríme, že nič zlé nerobíme, obviňujeme Boha z klamstva a vôbec ho nechápeme.

English Standard Version

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.
