I John 1

That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

Yaong buhat sa pasimula, yaong aming narinig, yaong nakita ng aming mga mata, yaong aming namasdan, at nahipo ng aming mga kamay, tungkol sa salita ng buhay;

(For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)

(At ang buhay ay nahayag, at aming nakita, at pinatotohanan, at sa inyo'y aming ibinabalita ang buhay, ang buhay na walang hanggan, na kasama ng Ama at sa atin ay nahayag);

That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

Yaong aming nakita at narinig ay siya rin naming ibinabalita sa inyo, upang kayo naman ay magkaroon ng pakikisama sa amin: oo, at tayo ay may pakikisama sa Ama, at sa kaniyang Anak na si Jesucristo:

And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

At ang mga bagay na ito ay aming isinusulat, upang ang ating kagalakan ay malubos.

This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

At ito ang pasabing aming narinig sa kaniya at sa inyo'y aming ibinabalita, na ang Dios ay ilaw, at sa kaniya'y walang anomang kadiliman.

If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:

Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y may pakikisama sa kaniya at nagsisilakad tayo sa kadiliman, ay nangagbubulaan tayo, at hindi tayo nagsisigawa ng katotohanan:

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

Nguni't kung tayo'y nagsisilakad sa liwanag, na gaya niyang nasa liwanag, ay may pakikisama tayo sa isa't isa, at nililinis tayo ng dugo ni Jesus na kaniyang Anak sa lahat ng kasalanan.

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y walang kasalanan, ay ating dinadaya ang ating sarili, at ang katotohanan ay wala sa atin.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Kung ipinahahayag natin ang ating mga kasalanan, ay tapat at banal siya na tayo'y patatawarin sa ating mga kasalanan, at tayo'y lilinisin sa lahat ng kalikuan.

If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Kung sinasabi nating tayo'y hindi nangagkasala, ay ating ginagawang sinungaling siya, at ang kaniyang salita ay wala sa atin.
