요한일서 3
Korean Bible: Easy-to-Read Version
우리는 하나님의 자녀
3 아버지께서 우리에게 아낌없이 베푸신 사랑이 얼마나 큰지요! 우리를 얼마나 사랑하셨기에, 우리를 당신의 자녀라고 부르셨겠습니까! 우리는 정말로 그분의 자녀입니다. 세상 사람들이 우리를 알지 못하는 것은, 그들이 그리스도가 누구인지 알지 못하기 때문입니다. 2 사랑하는 여러분, 이제 우리는 하나님의 자녀입니다. 우리가 앞으로 어떻게 될지 아직은 밝혀지지 않았습니다. 우리가 아는 것은, 그리스도께서 다시 오시면 우리도 그분과 같이 되리라는 것입니다. 그때 그분의 참모습을 볼 수 있을 것이기 때문입니다. 3 그리스도에 대하여 이러한 희망을 품고 있는 사람은 누구나, 그리스도께서 순결하신 것같이 자기를 순결하게 지킵니다.
4 죄를 짓는 모든 사람은 하나님의 법에 반항합니다. 죄는 곧 법에 반항하는 것입니다. 5 여러분도 알다시피 그리스도께서는 우리의 죄를 없애 주시려고 이 세상에 오셨습니다. 그리고 그분께는 죄가 없습니다. 6 그러므로 그분 안에 있는 사람은 계속하여 죄를 짓지 않습니다. 계속해서 죄를 짓는 사람은, 그리스도를 보지도 못하고 그분을 알지도 못하는 사람입니다.
7 사랑하는 나의 자녀들이여, 아무에게도 속지 마십시오. 의로운 일을 하는 사람은 그리스도께서 의로우신 것처럼 의롭습니다. 8 죄를 짓는 사람은 악마에게 속한 사람입니다. 악마는 처음부터 지금까지 계속하여 죄를 짓고 있기 때문입니다. 하나님의 아드님께서 오신 까닭은 악마의 일을 쳐부수려는 것이었습니다.
9 하나님께로부터 난 사람은 아무도 계속하여 죄를 짓지 않습니다. 하나님의 본성[a]이 그 사람 안에 있기 때문입니다. 그는 하나님께로부터 났기 때문에 계속하여 죄를 지을 수 없습니다. 10 우리는 누가 하나님의 자녀인지, 누가 악마의 자녀인지 알 수 있습니다. 옳은 일을 하지 않는 사람은 하나님의 자녀가 아닙니다. 그리고 형제를 사랑하지 않는 사람도 하나님의 자녀가 아닙니다.
서로 사랑하라
11 우리는 서로 사랑해야 합니다. 이것은 여러분이 처음부터 들어 온 계명입니다. 12 우리는 가인과 같이 되어서는 안 됩니다. 그는 악마에게 속했기 때문에 동생을 죽였습니다. 그가 왜 동생을 죽였습니까? 그가 한 일은 악한데, 동생이 한 일은 의로웠기 때문입니다.
13 형제자매 여러분, 세상 사람들이 여러분을 미워하는 것에 놀라지 마십시오. 14 우리가 그리스도 안에 있는 우리의 형제와 자매들을 사랑하기 때문에 죽음을 벗어나서 생명에 들어와 있다는 것을 우리는 알고 있습니다. 사랑하지 않는 사람은 아직도 죽음 가운데 머물러 있습니다. 15 형제를 미워하는 사람은 살인자입니다.[b] 여러분도 알다시피 살인자는 그 누구도 자기 안에 영원한 생명을 가지고 있지 않습니다. 16 그리스도께서는 우리를 위해 목숨을 바치셨습니다. 우리는 이것을 보고 참된 사랑이 어떤 것인지 알게 되었습니다. 그러므로 우리도 형제자매를 위해서 우리의 목숨을 바쳐야 합니다. 17 살림살이가 넉넉한 사람이 있다고 칩시다. 그가 어렵게 사는 형제를 보고도 불쌍히 여기지 않는다면, 어떻게 그런 사람에게 하나님의 사랑이 있다고 하겠습니까? 18 나의 사랑하는 자녀들이여, 우리는 말로나 혀로만 사랑하지 말고, 행동으로 사랑하고 진심으로 사랑합시다.
19-20 우리는 이렇게 사랑함으로써 우리가 진리에 속해 있다는 것을 알게 됩니다. 그리고 우리가 비록 마음에 찔림을 받더라도 하나님 앞에서 확신을 가질 수 있습니다. 하나님께서는 우리의 마음보다 크시고, 또 모든 것을 다 아시기 때문입니다.
21 사랑하는 여러분, 우리는 마음에 찔림 받을 일이 없을 때 자신 있게 하나님 앞으로 가까이 나아갈 수 있습니다. 22 그리고 우리가 하나님께 구하는 것은 무엇이든지 받을 수도 있습니다. 우리가 하나님의 계명을 따르고, 하나님을 기쁘시게 하는 일들을 하기 때문입니다. 23 하나님의 계명은 바로 이것입니다. 곧 하나님의 아들 예수 그리스도의 이름을 믿어야 한다는 것과, 그분께서 우리에게 명하신 대로 우리가 서로 사랑해야 한다는 것입니다. 24 하나님의 계명을 따르는 사람은 하나님 안에 살며, 하나님은 그 사람 안에 사십니다. 하나님께서 우리 안에 살고 계시다는 것은 하나님께서 우리에게 주신 성령을 보아서 알 수 있습니다.
1 John 3
Common English Bible
1 John 3
Common English Bible
3 See what kind of love the Father has given to us in that we should be called God’s children, and that is what we are! Because the world didn’t recognize him, it doesn’t recognize us.
2 Dear friends, now we are God’s children, and it hasn’t yet appeared what we will be. We know that when he appears we will be like him because we’ll see him as he is. 3 And all who have this hope in him purify themselves even as he is pure. 4 Every person who practices sin commits an act of rebellion, and sin is rebellion. 5 You know that he appeared to take away sins, and there is no sin in him. 6 Every person who remains in relationship to him does not sin. Any person who sins has not seen him or known him.
Practicing sin or righteousness
7 Little children, make sure no one deceives you. The person who practices righteousness is righteous, in the same way that Jesus is righteous. 8 The person who practices sin belongs to the devil, because the devil has been sinning since the beginning. God’s Son appeared for this purpose: to destroy the works of the devil. 9 Those born from God don’t practice sin because God’s DNA[a] remains in them. They can’t sin because they are born from God. 10 This is how God’s children and the devil’s children are apparent: everyone who doesn’t practice righteousness is not from God, including the person who doesn’t love a brother or sister. 11 This is the message that you heard from the beginning: love each other. 12 Don’t behave like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he kill him? He killed him because his own works were evil, but the works of his brother were righteous.
Loving each other
13 Don’t be surprised, brothers and sisters, if the world hates you. 14 We know that we have transferred from death to life, because we love the brothers and sisters. The person who does not love remains in death. 15 Everyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that murderers don’t have eternal life residing in them. 16 This is how we know love: Jesus laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17 But if someone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but refuses to help—how can the love of God dwell in a person like that?
18 Little children, let’s not love with words or speech but with action and truth. 19 This is how we will know that we belong to the truth and reassure our hearts in God’s presence. 20 Even if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts and knows all things. 21 Dear friends, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have confidence in relationship to God. 22 We receive whatever we ask from him because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him. 23 This is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love each other as he commanded us. 24 Those who keep his commandments dwell in God and God dwells in them. This is how we know that he dwells in us, because of the Spirit he has given us.

New International Version
1 John 3
New International Version
3 See what great love(A) the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!(B) And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.(C) 2 Dear friends,(D) now we are children of God,(E) and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears,[a](F) we shall be like him,(G) for we shall see him as he is.(H) 3 All who have this hope in him purify themselves,(I) just as he is pure.(J)
4 Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness.(K) 5 But you know that he appeared so that he might take away our sins.(L) And in him is no sin.(M) 6 No one who lives in him keeps on sinning.(N) No one who continues to sin has either seen him(O) or known him.(P)
7 Dear children,(Q) do not let anyone lead you astray.(R) The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.(S) 8 The one who does what is sinful is of the devil,(T) because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God(U) appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.(V) 9 No one who is born of God(W) will continue to sin,(X) because God’s seed(Y) remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God. 10 This is how we know who the children of God(Z) are and who the children of the devil(AA) are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not God’s child, nor is anyone who does not love(AB) their brother and sister.(AC)
More on Love and Hatred
11 For this is the message you heard(AD) from the beginning:(AE) We should love one another.(AF) 12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one(AG) and murdered his brother.(AH) And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.(AI) 13 Do not be surprised, my brothers and sisters,[b] if the world hates you.(AJ) 14 We know that we have passed from death to life,(AK) because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in death.(AL) 15 Anyone who hates a brother or sister(AM) is a murderer,(AN) and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.(AO)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.(AP) And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.(AQ) 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them,(AR) how can the love of God be in that person?(AS) 18 Dear children,(AT) let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.(AU)
19 This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: 20 If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. 21 Dear friends,(AV) if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God(AW) 22 and receive from him anything we ask,(AX) because we keep his commands(AY) and do what pleases him.(AZ) 23 And this is his command: to believe(BA) in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ,(BB) and to love one another as he commanded us.(BC) 24 The one who keeps God’s commands(BD) lives in him,(BE) and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.(BF)

1 John 3
King James Version
1 John 3
King James Version
3 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
3 And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
11 For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
12 Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's righteous.
13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.
15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.
22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
