The Word of Life
1 [a]That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2 the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you may have fellowship[b] with us; and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And we are writing this that our[c] joy may be complete.
God Is Light
5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness[d] at all. 6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth; 7 but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

WARQADDII KOWAAD EE RASUUL
YOOXANAA
Nolosha Weligeed Ah Waa La Muujiyey
1 Waxaannu idiin soo qoraynaa wax ku saabsan wixii tan iyo bilowgii jiray, oo aannu maqalnay, oo aannu indhahayaga ku aragnay, oo aannu eegnay, oo ay gacmahayagu taabteen oo Ereyga nolosha ah. 2 Nolosha waa la muujiyey, oo waannu aragnay, waanan u marag furaynaa, oo waxaannu idiinka warramaynaa nolosha weligeed ah, ta Aabbaha la jirtay oo lanoo muujiyey. 3 Wixii aannu aragnay oo aannu maqalnay ayaannu idiinka warramaynaa, si aad idinkuna noo soo wehelisaan; oo wehelnimadeennu waa mid la jirta Aabbaha iyo Wiilkiisa Ciise Masiix ah. 4 Oo waxaannu waxyaalahan idiinku soo qoraynaa si ay farxaddiinnu u buuxsanto.
Ilaah Waa Nuur
5 Warkii aannu ka maqalnay oo aan idiinka warramayno wuxuu yahay, in Ilaah nuur yahay, oo isaga aan gudcur ku jirin innaba. 6 Haddaynu nidhaahno, Wehelnimo ayaynu la wadaagnaa isaga, oo aynu gudcurka ku soconno, been baynu sheegnaa, oo runta ma falno. 7 Laakiin haddaynu nuurka ku soconno siduu isaguba nuurka ugu jiro, wehelnimo ayaynu isla wada wadaagnaa, oo dhiigga Ciise, oo Wiilkiisa ah, wuxuu inaga nadiifiyaa dembi oo dhan. 8 Haddaynu nidhaahno, Dembi ma lihin, nafsaddeenna ayaynu khiyaanaynaa, oo runtuna inaguma jirto. 9 Haddaynu dembiyadeenna qiranno, isagu waa aamin iyo caaddil inuu dembiyadeenna inaga cafiyo, oo uu inaga nadiifiyo xaqdarrada oo dhan. 10 Haddaynu nidhaahno, Ma aynu dembaabin, waxaynu Ilaah ka dhignaa beenaaleh, oo ereygiisa inaguma jiro.

The Incarnation of the Word of Life
1 That which was from the beginning,(A) which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes,(B) which we have looked at and our hands have touched(C)—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2 The life appeared;(D) we have seen it and testify to it,(E) and we proclaim to you the eternal life,(F) which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard,(G) so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.(H) 4 We write this(I) to make our[a] joy complete.(J)
Light and Darkness, Sin and Forgiveness
5 This is the message we have heard(K) from him and declare to you: God is light;(L) in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness,(M) we lie and do not live out the truth.(N) 7 But if we walk in the light,(O) as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[b] sin.(P)
8 If we claim to be without sin,(Q) we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.(R) 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins(S) and purify us from all unrighteousness.(T) 10 If we claim we have not sinned,(U) we make him out to be a liar(V) and his word is not in us.(W)
