New Living Translation

New American Standard Bible

1 John 1

Introduction

We proclaim to you the one who existed from the beginning,a whom we have heard and seen. We saw him with our own eyes and touched him with our own hands. He is the Word of life.

Introduction, The Incarnate Word

What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked at and touched with our hands, concerning the Word of Life —

This one who is life itself was revealed to us, and we have seen him. And now we testify and proclaim to you that he is the one who is eternal life. He was with the Father, and then he was revealed to us.

and the life was manifested, and we have seen and testify and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was manifested to us —

We proclaim to you what we ourselves have actually seen and heard so that you may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

what we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ.

We are writing these things so that you may fully share our joy.b

These things we write, so that our joy may be made complete.

Living in the Light

This is the message we heard from Jesusc and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all.

God Is Light

This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth.

If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth;

But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.

but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.

If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth.

If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.

But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.
