1ⲛⲁϣⲏⲣⲓ ⲛⲁⲓ ϯ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲣⲉϣⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲉⲣⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲡⲁⲣⲁⲕⲗⲏⲧⲟⲛ ϧⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ.
1My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate before the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One.
2ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲡⲥⲱϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲓ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲛ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲛⲁ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ.
2He Himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲛϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ.
3By this we can be sure that we have come to know Him: if we keep His commandments.
4ⲫⲏⲉⲧϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲓⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲟⲩⲥⲁⲙⲉⲑⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲁⲛ.
4If anyone says, “I know Him,” but does not keep His commandments, he is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁ⳿ⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲁⲗⲏⲑⲱⲥ ϯ ⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲁⲥϫⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲛϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
5But if anyone keeps His word, the love of God has been truly perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him:
6ⲫⲏⲉⲧϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁ ⲫⲏ ⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϩⲱϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ.
6Whoever claims to abide in Him must walk as Jesus walked.
7ⲛⲁⲙⲉⲛⲣⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲟⲩⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲡⲁⲥ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲏ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲥ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϩⲏ ϯⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲡⲁⲥ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲟⲑⲙⲉϥ.
7Beloved, I am not writing to you a new commandment, but an old one, which you have had from the beginning. This commandment is the message you have heard.
8ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⲟⲩⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉϯ⳿ⲥϧⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲑⲙⲏⲓ ϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲛⲁⲥⲓⲛⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲙⲏⲓ ϩⲏⲇⲏ ⳿ϥⲉⲣⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ.
8Then again, I am also writing to you a new commandment, which is true in Him and also in you. For the darkness is fading and the true light is already shining.
9ⲫⲏⲉⲧϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲙⲟⲥϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲁϥ⳿ⲛϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ϣⲁ ϯⲛⲟⲩ.
9If anyone claims to be in the light but hates his brother, he is still in the darkness.
10ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲉⲣⲁⲅⲁⲡⲁⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲁϥϣⲟⲡ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲓⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲥⲕⲁⲛⲇⲁⲗⲟⲛ ϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ.
10Whoever loves his brother remains in the light, and there is no cause of stumbling in him.
11ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲙⲟⲥϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲥⲟⲛ ⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ ⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ⳿ⲉⲑⲱⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁ ⲡⲓⲭⲁⲕⲓ ⲑⲱⲙ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ.
11But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness. He does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

12I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven through His name.

13I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.

14I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

15Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16ϫⲉ ⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲉⲧϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϯ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲥⲁⲣⲝ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲓⲃⲁⲗ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϩⲓ⳿ⲡϩⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲃⲓⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲓ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲓⲱⲧ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲁⲛ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲉ.
16For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not from the Father but from the world.

17The world is passing away, along with its desires; but whoever does the will of God remains forever.

18Children, it is the last hour; and just as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have appeared. This is how we know it is the last hour.

19They went out from us, but they did not belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But their departure made it clear that none of them belonged to us.

20You, however, have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.

21I have not written to you because you lack knowledge of the truth, but because you have it, and because no lie comes from the truth.

22Who is the liar, if it is not the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, who denies the Father and the Son.

23Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father, but whoever confesses the Son has the Father as well.

24As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If it does, you will also remain in the Son and in the Father.

25And this is the promise that He Himself made to us: eternal life.

26I have written these things to you about those who are trying to deceive you.

27And as for you, the anointing you received from Him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But just as His true and genuine anointing teaches you about all things, so remain in Him as you have been taught.
28ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲁϣⲏⲣⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϭ ⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲁⲣⲣⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙϭⲓϣⲓⲡⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲧϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲧⲉϥⲡⲁⲣⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ.
28And now, little children, remain in Christ, so that when He appears, we may be confident and unashamed before Him at His coming.

29If you know that He is righteous, you also know that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of Him.
