1 John 2

1 Little children of mine, I Awrite these things to yous that yous might not Asin-2a.  And if anyone (might) Asin-2a we Ahave advocate with the father, righteous Jesus Christ.

2 And he is atonement concerning the sins of us, moreover, not concerning (the) ours only but also concerning all the world. 

3 And in this we Aknow1 that we have Aknown1 him, if we (might) Akeep the commandments of him.

4 The one Asaying, “I have Aknown1 him,” and is not Akeeping the commandments of him, liar is and the truth is not in him.

5 Moreover, whoever might Akeep the word of him, truly the love of God has been MorPcompleted in him.  In this we Aknow1 that we are in him.

6 The one Asaying, “In him Aabide,” Aought, according as that one Awalk-a, also himself in this way to Awalk.

7 Brothers, I Awrite no new commandment to yous, but old commandment which yous were Aholding from beginning.  The old the commandment is the word which yous Ahear-a from beginning.

8 Again, I Awrite new commandment to yous, which is true in him and in yous, because the darkness MorPpasses away and the true the light already Ashines.

9 The one Asaying, “In the light am,” and Ahating the brother of him, is in the darkness until now.

10 The one Aloving the brother of him, Aabides in the light and no offense is in him.

11 Moreover, the one Ahating the brother of him is in the darkness and Awalks in the darkness and has not Aknown3 where he Agoes because the darkness Ablind-a the eyes of him.

12 I Awrite to yous, little children, because the sins have been MorPforgiven for yous on account of the name of him.

13 I Awrite to yous, fathers, because yous have Aknown1 the one from beginning.  I Awrite to yous, young men, because yous have Aovercome the evil one.  I Awrite to yous, infants, because yous have Aknown1 the father.

14 I Awrite-a to yous, fathers, because yous have Aknown1 the one from beginning.  I Awrite-a to yous, young men, because yous are strong and the word of (the) God Aabides in yous and yous have Aovercome the evil one.

15 Yous, Alove not the world nor the things in the world.  If anyone (might) Aloves the world the love of the father is not in him,

16 because every(the)thing in the world, the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the boasting of the livelihood, is not out of the father but is out of the world.

17 And the world MorPpasses away and the desire of it.  Moreover, the one Adoing the will of (the) God Aabides into the age.

18 Infants, last hour is and according as yous Ahear-a that the antichrist MDorPDcomes, and now many antichrists have Abecome, by which we Aknow1 that last hour is.

19 They Ago out-2a of us, but they were not out of us, for if they were out of us they might have Aabided with us, but that they might Pmanifest-a, that all are not out of us.

20 And yous Ahave anointing from the holy one and have Aknown3 all.

21 I Awrite-a not to yous because yous have not Aknown3 the truth but because yous have known3 it, and because any lie is not out of the truth.

22 Who is the liar, if not the one MDorPDdenying that Jesus is not the Christ?  This is the antichrist, the one MDorPDdenying the father and the son.

23 Every(the)one MDorPDdenying the son, neither Ahas the father.  The one Aconfessing the son Ahas the father also.

24 Yous therefore, that which yous Ahear-a from beginning, let it Aabide in yous.  If in yous (might) Aabide-a that which yous Ahear-a from beginning, yous also will Aabide in the son and in the father.

25 And this is the promise which he MDpromise-a us: the life, the age-lasting one.

26 These things I Awrite-a to yous concerning the ones Aleading yous astray.

27 And the anointing which yous Areceive-2a from him, Aabides in yous, and yous have no need that anyone might Ateach yous, but as the same anointing Ateaches yous concerning all and is true and is no lie and according as it Ateach-a yous, yous will Aabide in him.

28 And now, little children, Aabide in him, that when he might Pmanifest-a we might Ahave boldness and we might not Pfeel shame-a from him in the presence of him.

29 If yous (might) have Aknown3 that he is righteous, yous Aknow1 that every(the)one Adoing the righteousness has been MorPborn out of him.
