Book of Common Prayer

5 Everyone pas who ho believes pisteuō that hoti Jesus Iēsous is eimi the ho Christ Christos has been born gennaō of ek · ho God theos, and kai everyone pas who ho loves agapaō the ho father gennaō loves agapaō · kai · ho his autos child gennaō. ² By en this houtos we know ginōskō that hoti we love agapaō the ho children teknon of ho God theos: whenever hotan we love agapaō · ho God theos and kai obey poieō · ho his autos commandments entolē. ³ For gar this houtos is eimi the ho love agapē of ho God theos: that hina we keep tēreō · ho his autos commandments entolē. And kai · ho his autos commandments entolē are eimi not ou burdensome barys, ⁴ because hoti everyone pas who ho has been born gennaō of ek · ho God theos conquers nikaō the ho world kosmos. And kai this houtos is eimi the ho victorious power nikē that ho has conquered nikaō the ho world kosmos— · ho our hēmeis faith pistis. ⁵ Who tis · de is eimi it that ho conquers nikaō the ho world kosmos, but ei mē the ho one who believes pisteuō that hoti Jesus Iēsous is eimi the ho Son hyios of ho God theos?

⁶ This houtos is eimi the ho one who came erchomai by dia water hydōr and kai blood haima— Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos; not ou by en · ho water hydōr only monon but alla by en · ho water hydōr and kai · ho blood haima. And kai the ho Spirit pneuma is eimi the ho one who testifies martyreō, because hoti the ho Spirit pneuma is eimi the ho truth alētheia. ⁷ For hoti there are eimi three treis that ho testify martyreō: ⁸ the ho Spirit pneuma and kai the ho water hydōr and kai the ho blood haima; and kai the ho three treis are eimi in eis · ho accord heis. ⁹ If ei we receive lambanō the ho testimony martyria of ho men anthrōpos, the ho testimony martyria of ho God theos is eimi greater megas, because hoti this houtos is eimi the ho testimony martyria of ho God theos that hoti he has borne martyreō concerning peri · ho his autos Son hyios. ¹⁰ The ho one who believes pisteuō in eis the ho Son hyios of ho God theos has echō the ho testimony martyria in en himself heautou; the ho one who does not mē believe pisteuō · ho God theos has made poieō him autos out to be a liar pseustēs, because hoti he has not ou believed pisteuō in eis the ho testimony martyria that hos God theos has borne martyreō · ho concerning peri · ho his autos Son hyios. ¹¹ And kai this houtos is eimi the ho testimony martyria: God theos gave didōmi us hēmeis eternal aiōnios life zōē, · ho and kai this houtos · ho life zōē is eimi in en · ho his autos Son hyios. ¹² The ho one who has echō the ho Son hyios has echō · ho life zōē; the ho one who does not mē have echō the ho Son hyios of ho God theos does echō not ou have echō · ho life zōē.

¹⁶ “ To what tis · de shall I compare homoioō · ho this houtos generation genea? It is eimi like homoios children paidion sitting kathēmai in en the ho marketplaces agora who hos cry prosphōneō to their ho friends heteros, ¹⁷ ‘ We played auleō the flute for you hymeis, and kai you did not ou dance orcheomai; we sang thrēneō a dirge , and kai you did not ou mourn koptō.’ ¹⁸ For gar John Iōannēs came erchomai neither mēte eating esthiō nor mēte drinking pinō, and kai they say legō, ‘ He has echō a demon daimonion!’ ¹⁹ The ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos came erchomai eating esthiō and kai drinking pinō, and kai they say legō, ‘ Look idou at him anthrōpos! A glutton phagos and kai a drunkard oinopotēs, a friend philos of tax telōnēs collectors and kai sinners hamartōlos!’ Yet kai wisdom sophia is shown to be right dikaioō · ho by apo what ho she autos does ergon.”

²⁰ Then tote he began archō to reprimand oneidizō the ho towns polis in en which hos most polys of his autos mighty works dynamis had been done ginomai, · ho because hoti they did not ou repent metanoeō: ²¹ “ Woe ouai to you sy, Chorazin Chorazin! Woe ouai to you sy, Bethsaida Bēthsaida! For hoti if ei in en Tyre Tyros and kai Sidon Sidōn had been done ginomai the ho mighty works dynamis that ho were done ginomai in en you hymeis, they metanoeō would an have repented metanoeō long palai ago in en sackcloth sakkos and kai ashes spodos. ²² Nevertheless plēn I tell legō you hymeis, it will be eimi more bearable anektos for Tyre Tyros and kai Sidon Sidōn on en the day hēmera of judgment krisis than ē for you hymeis. ²³ And kai as for you sy, Capernaum Kapharnaoum, will you be exalted hypsoō to heōs heaven ouranos? No mē, you will be brought down katabainō to heōs Hades hadēs! For hoti if ei in en Sodom Sodoma had been done ginomai the ho mighty works dynamis that ho were done ginomai in en you sy, it would an have remained menō to mechri this ho day sēmeron. ²⁴ Nevertheless plēn I tell legō you hymeis that hoti it will be eimi more bearable anektos for the land gē of Sodom Sodoma on en the day hēmera of judgment krisis than ē for you sy.”
