1 John 5

1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves those born of Him.

1 凡信耶稣是基督的人，都是从上帝生的。凡爱生他之上帝的，也必爱上帝所生的。

2 By this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God and keep His commandments.

2 当我们爱上帝，遵行祂的命令时，便知道自己也爱祂的儿女。

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,

3 因为我们遵行上帝的命令就是爱上帝。其实，祂的命令并不难遵守，

4 because everyone born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world: our faith.

4 因为凡从上帝生的人都能胜过世界，使我们得胜的是我们的信心。

5 Who then overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

5 谁能胜过世界呢？不就是那些信耶稣是上帝儿子的人吗？

6 This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ—not by water alone, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies to this, because the Spirit is the truth.

6 耶稣基督是借着水和血来的。祂不是单借着水来的，而是借着水和血来的，并且有圣灵为祂做见证，因为圣灵就是真理。

7 For there are three that testify:

7 这样，做见证的共有三样：

8 the Spirit, the water, and the blood—and these three are in agreement.

8 圣灵、水和血。这三者是一致的。

9 Even if we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony that God has given about His Son.

9 我们既然接受人的见证，就更该接受上帝的见证，因为这是上帝为祂儿子做的见证。

10 Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within him; whoever does not believe God has made Him out to be a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given about His Son.

10 信上帝儿子的人里面有这见证，不信上帝的人把上帝当作了说谎的，因为他不信上帝为祂儿子做的见证。

11 And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

11 这见证就是：上帝已经把永生赐给我们，这生命在祂儿子里面。

12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

12 人有上帝的儿子，就有这生命；没有上帝的儿子，就没有这生命。

13 I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

13 我把这些话写给你们这些信上帝儿子之名的人，是要你们知道自己有永生。

14 And this is the confidence that we have before Him: If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

14 我们若按着上帝的旨意祈求，祂必垂听，这是我们对祂的信心。

15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we already possess what we have asked of Him.

15 我们既然知道上帝垂听我们一切的祈求，就知道我们必能得到所求的。

16 If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he should ask God, who will give life to those who commit this kind of sin. There is a sin that leads to death; I am not saying he should ask regarding that sin.

16 人若看见信徒犯了不至于死的罪，就当为他祷告，上帝必将生命赐给他，就是那些犯了不至于死之罪的人。有的罪会导致死亡，我并不是说你们要为这样的罪祷告。

17 All unrighteousness is sin, yet there is sin that does not lead to death.

17 一切不义的事都是罪，但有的罪不会导致死亡。

18 We know that anyone born of God does not keep on sinning; the One who was born of God protects him, and the evil one cannot touch him.

18 我们知道凡从上帝生的不会继续犯罪，因为上帝的儿子保护他，那恶者无法害他。

19 We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one.

19 我们知道自己属于上帝，全世界都在那恶者手中。

20 And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true—in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.

20 我们知道上帝的儿子已经来了，并且赐给了我们悟性，使我们能认识真神。我们在真神里面，就是在祂儿子耶稣基督里面。祂是真神，也是永生。

21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

21 孩子们啊，你们要远离偶像！
