New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |
|
|
| 11 | For the message you have heard from the beginning is this: that we should love one another; | Love One Another 1Jn.3.11-18 | Ὅτι αὑτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγγελία ἣν ἠκούσατε ἀπ' ἀρχῆς, ἵνα ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους· |
|
| 12 | unlike Cain, who was a child of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were wrong, and his brother's were right.
| | οὐ καθὼς Κάϊν ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ ἦν καὶ ἐσφαξεν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ χάριν τίνος ἐσφαξεν αὐτόν; ὅτι τὰ ἐργα αὐτοῦ πονηρὰ ἦν, τὰ δὲ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ δίκαια. |
|
| 13 | My brothers, do not be surprised if the world hates you. | | καὶ μὴ θαυμάζετε, ἀδελφοί, εἰ μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος. |
|
| 14 | We for our part have crossed over from death to life; this we know, because we love our brothers. The man who does not love is still in the realm of death, | | ἡμεῖς οἰδαμεν ὅτι μεταβεβήκαμεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν, ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τοὺς ἀδελφούς· ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν μένει ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ. |
|
| 15 | for everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and no murderer, as you know, has eternal life dwelling within him. | | πᾶς ὁ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἄνθρωποκτόνος ἐστίν, καὶ οἰδατε ὅτι πᾶς ἄνθρωποκτόνος οὐκ ἐχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἐν αὐτῷ μένουσαν. |
|
| 16 | It is by this that we know what love is: that Christ laid down his life for us. And we in our turn are bound to lay down our lives for our brothers. | | ἐν τούτῳ ἐγνώκαμεν τὴν ἀγάπην, ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὑπὲρ ἡμῶν τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἐθηκεν· καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν τὰς ψυχὰς θεῖναι. |
|
| 17 | But if a man has enough to live on, and yet when he sees his brother in need shuts up his heart against him, how can it be said that the divine love Or: that love for God ... dwells in him?
| | ὃς δ' ἂν ἐχῃ τὸν βίον τοῦ κόσμου καὶ θεωρῇ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ χρείαν ἐχοντα καὶ κλείσῃ τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ ἀπ' αὐτοῦ, πῶς ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐν αὐτῷ; |
|
| 18 | My children, love must not be a matter of words or talk; it must be genuine, and show itself in action. | | Τεκνία, μὴ ἀγαπῶμεν λόγῳ μηδὲ τῇ γλώσσῃ ἀλλὰ ἐν ἐργῳ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ. |
