1 Everyone who believes that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ has been born of Elohim, and everyone who loves the One bringing forth also loves the one having been born of Him.
2 By this we know that we love the children of Elohim, when we love 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 and guard His Commands.
3 For this is the love for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, that we guard His Commands, and His Commands are not heavy,
4 because everyone having been born of Elohim overcomes the world. And this is the overcoming that has overcome the world: our belief.
5 Who is the one who overcomes the world but he who believes that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 is the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄?
6 This is the One that came by water and blood: 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ, not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Ruaḥ who bears witness, because the Ruaḥ is the Truth.
7 Because there are three who bear witness:
8 the Ruaḥ, and the water, and the blood. And the three are in agreement.
9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of Elohim is greater, because this is the witness of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 which He has witnessed concerning His Bĕn.
10 The one who believes in the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has the witness in himself, the one who does not believe 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the witness that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has given concerning His Bĕn.
11 And this is the witness: that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has given us everlasting ḥai, and this ḥai is in His Bĕn.
12 He who possesses the Bĕn possesses ḥai, he who does not possess the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 does not possess ḥai.
13 I have written this to you who believe in the Name of the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, so that you know that you possess everlasting ḥai, and so that you believe in the Name of the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄.
14 And this is the boldness that we have in Him, that if we ask whatever according to His desire, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.
16 If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin, not unto death, he shall ask, and He shall give him ḥai for those not sinning unto death. There is a sin unto death. I do not say that he should pray about that.
17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not unto death.
18 We know that everyone having been born of Elohim does not sin, but the one having been born of Elohim guards himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.
19 We know that we are of Elohim, and all the world lies in the wicked one.
20 And we know that the Bĕn of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has come and has given us an understanding, so that we might know the true One. And we are in the true One, in His Bĕn 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 ha’Mashiaḥ. This is the true Elohim and everlasting ḥai.
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amĕn.
