³ Now kai this houtos is how en we can be sure ginōskō that hoti we know ginōskō God autos: if ean we keep tēreō · ho his autos commandments entolē. ⁴ The ho one who says legō, “ I know ginōskō God autos,” yet kai does tēreō not mē keep tēreō · ho his autos commandments entolē, is eimi a liar pseustēs and kai the ho truth alētheia is eimi not ou in en him houtos. ⁵ But de whoever hos keeps tēreō his autos · ho word logos, truly alēthōs in en that person houtos is the ho love agapē of ho God theos brought to fulfillment teleioō. This is how en we can be sure ginōskō that hoti we are eimi in en him autos: ⁶ the ho one who claims legō to abide menō in en God autos ought opheilō to walk peripateō just as kathōs Jesus ekeinos walked peripateō. · kai

⁷ Dear friends agapētos, it is not ou a new kainos commandment entolē that I write graphō to you hymeis, but alla an old palaios commandment entolē—one that hos you have had echō from apo the beginning archē. The ho old palaios commandment entolē · ho is eimi the ho message logos you have already heard akouō. ⁸ Yet palin it is a new kainos commandment entolē that I write graphō to you hymeis, one hos that is eimi true alēthēs in en him autos and kai in en you hymeis, because hoti the ho darkness skotia is passing away paragō and kai the ho true alēthinos light phōs · ho is already ēdē shining phainō. ⁹ The ho one who claims legō to be eimi in en the ho light phōs but kai goes on hating miseō · ho his autos brother adelphos is eimi still heōs in en the ho darkness skotia. ¹⁰ The ho one who loves agapaō · ho his autos brother adelphos is living menō in en the ho light phōs and kai in en him autos there is eimi no ou cause for stumbling skandalon. ¹¹ But de the ho one who hates miseō · ho his autos brother adelphos is eimi in en the ho darkness skotia; · kai he walks peripateō in en the ho darkness skotia and kai does not ou know oida where pou he is going hypagō, because hoti the ho darkness skotia has blinded typhloō · ho his autos eyes ophthalmos.

¹² Again palin Jesus Iēsous spoke laleō to them autos, · ho saying legō, “ I egō am eimi the ho light phōs of the ho world kosmos. The ho one who follows akoloutheō me egō will never ou mē walk peripateō in en · ho darkness skotia, but alla will have echō the ho light phōs of ho life zōē.” ¹³ Therefore oun the ho Pharisees Pharisaios said legō to him autos, “ You sy are bearing witness martyreō about peri yourself seautou; · ho your sy testimony martyria is eimi not ou valid alēthēs.” ¹⁴ Jesus Iēsous answered apokrinomai them autos, · kai saying legō, “ Even kan if I egō am bearing witness martyreō about peri myself emautou, my egō testimony martyria is eimi valid alēthēs, · ho because hoti I know oida where pothen I came erchomai from and kai where pou I am going hypagō. You hymeis, on de the other hand , do not ou know oida where pothen I come erchomai from or ē where pou I am going hypagō. ¹⁵ You hymeis judge krinō according kata to · ho human sarx standards ; I egō judge krinō no one oudeis. ¹⁶ But de even kai if ean I egō do judge krinō, · ho my emos judgment krisis · ho is eimi trustworthy alēthinos, because hoti it is eimi not ou I eimi alone monos who judge, but alla I egō and kai the ho Father patēr who sent pempō me egō. ¹⁷ · kai In en · ho your own hymeteros law nomos · de · ho it is written graphō that hoti the ho testimony martyria of two dyo men anthrōpos is eimi conclusive alēthēs. ¹⁸ I egō am eimi one ho who bears witness martyreō about peri myself emautou, and kai the ho Father patēr who sent pempō me egō also bears martyreō witness about peri me egō.” ¹⁹ Then oun they began asking legō him autos, “ Where pou is eimi · ho your sy father patēr?” Jesus Iēsous replied apokrinomai, “ You know oida neither oute me egō nor oute · ho my egō Father patēr. If ei you knew oida me egō you oida would an know oida my egō Father patēr also kai.” · ho
