1 John 5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Faith Conquers the World
5 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ[a] has been born of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child.(A) 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. 3 For the love of God is this, that we obey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome,(B) 4 for whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith.(C) 5 Who is it who conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?(D)
Testimony concerning the Son of God
6 This is the one who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood. And the Spirit is the one that testifies, for the Spirit is the truth.(E) 7 There are three that testify:[b](F) 8 the Spirit and the water and the blood, and these three agree. 9 If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater, for this is the testimony of God that he has testified to his Son.(G) 10 Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God[c] have made him a liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.(H) 11 And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.(I)
Epilogue
13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.[d](J)
14 And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him. 16 If you see your brother or sister committing what is not a deadly sin, you will ask, and God[e] will give life to such a one—to those whose sin is not deadly. There is sin that is deadly; I do not say that you should pray about that.(K) 17 All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin that is not deadly.
18 We know that those who are born of God do not sin, but the one who was born of God protects them, and the evil one does not touch them.[f](L) 19 We know that we are God’s children and that the whole world lies under the power of the evil one.(M) 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;[g] and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.(N)
21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols.[h]

Ang Pagtatagumpay sa Sanlibutan
5 Ang sinumang sumasampalatayang si Jesus ang Cristo ay anak na ng Diyos, at ang sinumang nagmamahal sa nagsilang ay nagmamahal din sa isinilang. 2 Ganito natin nalalaman na minamahal natin ang mga anak ng Diyos: kung minamahal natin ang Diyos at sinusunod ang kanyang mga utos. 3 Sapagkat ganito ang pagmamahal sa Diyos, na sundin natin ang kanyang mga utos, at hindi naman mahirap sundin ang kanyang mga utos. 4 Sapagkat ang sinumang anak na ng Diyos ay nagtatagumpay sa sanlibutan. At ito ang pagtatagumpay na dumadaig sa sanlibutan, ang ating pananampalataya. 5 At sino ang nagtatagumpay sa sanlibutan? Hindi ba siya na sumasampalataya na si Jesus ang Anak ng Diyos?
Ang Patotoo tungkol sa Anak ng Diyos
6 Si Jesu-Cristo ang siyang pumarito sa pamamagitan ng tubig at ng dugo; hindi lamang sa pamamagitan ng tubig kundi ng tubig at ng dugo. Ang Espiritu ang nagpapatotoo sapagkat ang Espiritu ay katotohanan. 7 Sapagkat may tatlong nagpapatotoo:[a] 8 ang Espiritu, ang tubig at ang dugo, at ang tatlong ito ay nagkakaisa. 9 Kung tumatanggap tayo ng patotoo ng mga tao, mas higit pa ang patotoo ng Diyos, sapagkat ito ang patotoo ng Diyos, na kanyang ibinigay tungkol sa kanyang Anak. 10 Ang sumasampalataya sa Anak ng Diyos ay nagtataglay sa kanyang sarili ng patotoong ito. Ang hindi sumasampalataya sa Diyos ay ginagawang sinungaling ang Diyos, sapagkat hindi siya sumampalataya sa patotoo na ibinigay ng Diyos tungkol sa kanyang Anak. 11 At ito ang patotoo: binigyan tayo ng Diyos ng buhay na walang hanggan, at ang buhay na ito ay nasa kanyang Anak. 12 Ang sinumang kinaroroonan ng Anak ay may buhay; ang sinumang hindi kinaroroonan ng Anak ng Diyos ay walang buhay.
13 Isinulat ko ang mga ito sa inyo na sumasampalataya sa pangalan ng Anak ng Diyos, upang malaman ninyo na kayo'y may buhay na walang hanggan. 14 At ito ang katiyakang taglay natin sa kanya: kung anuman ang hihilingin natin ayon sa kanyang kalooban, pinakikinggan niya tayo. 15 At kung alam nating pinakikinggan niya tayo sa anumang hinihiling natin, nakatitiyak na tayo na tatanggapin natin ang hiniling natin mula sa kanya.
16 Kung makita ng sinuman ang kanyang kapatid na gumagawa ng kasalanang hindi tungo sa kamatayan, ipanalangin niya ito, at ito ay bibigyan ng Diyos ng buhay, at ganoon din sa mga gumagawa ng kasalanang hindi tungo sa kamatayan. May kasalanang tungo sa kamatayan; hindi tungkol dito ang sinasabi ko na ipanalangin ninyo. 17 Lahat ng kasamaan ay kasalanan, ngunit may kasalanang hindi tungo sa kamatayan.
18 Alam na nating ang mga anak ng Diyos ay hindi nagpapatuloy sa kasalanan, sapagkat iniingatan siya ng Anak ng Diyos at hindi siya nagagawang saktan ng Masama. 19 Alam na natin na tayo ay sa Diyos, at ang buong sanlibutan ay nasa ilalim ng kapangyarihan ng Masama. 20 At alam na nating naparito ang Anak ng Diyos at binigyan tayo ng pagkaunawa upang makilala natin siya na totoo; at tayo ay nasa kanya na totoo. Samakatuwid, sa kanyang Anak na si Jesu-Cristo. Siya ang tunay na Diyos at ang buhay na walang hanggan. 21 Mga anak, lumayo kayo sa mga diyus-diyosan.

New International Version
Faith in the Incarnate Son of God
5 Everyone who believes(A) that Jesus is the Christ(B) is born of God,(C) and everyone who loves the father loves his child as well.(D) 2 This is how we know(E) that we love the children of God:(F) by loving God and carrying out his commands. 3 In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands.(G) And his commands are not burdensome,(H) 4 for everyone born of God(I) overcomes(J) the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.(K)
6 This is the one who came by water and blood(L)—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.(M) 7 For there are three(N) that testify: 8 the[a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9 We accept human testimony,(O) but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God,(P) which he has given about his Son. 10 Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony.(Q) Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar,(R) because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life,(S) and this life is in his Son.(T) 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.(U)
Concluding Affirmations
13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God(V) so that you may know that you have eternal life.(W) 14 This is the confidence(X) we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.(Y) 15 And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know(Z) that we have what we asked of him.(AA)
16 If you see any brother or sister commit a sin that does not lead to death, you should pray and God will give them life.(AB) I refer to those whose sin does not lead to death. There is a sin that leads to death.(AC) I am not saying that you should pray about that.(AD) 17 All wrongdoing is sin,(AE) and there is sin that does not lead to death.(AF)
18 We know that anyone born of God(AG) does not continue to sin; the One who was born of God keeps them safe, and the evil one(AH) cannot harm them.(AI) 19 We know that we are children of God,(AJ) and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.(AK) 20 We know also that the Son of God has come(AL) and has given us understanding,(AM) so that we may know him who is true.(AN) And we are in him who is true by being in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.(AO)
