For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world: your faith.
因為凡從上帝生的，就勝過世界；使我們勝了世界的，就是我們的信心。
5:5
ወመኑውእቱዘይመውኦለዓለምዘእንበለዘየአምንከመኢየሱስውእቱወልደእግዚአብሔር።
Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
勝過世界的是誰呢？不是那信耶穌是上帝兒子的嗎？
5:6
ወከመውእቱመጽአበማይወበደምወበመንፈስኢየሱስክርስቶስ።
This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
這藉着水和血而來的，就是耶穌基督；不是單用水，乃是用水又用血，
5:7
ወአኮበማይባሕቲቱአላበማይኒወበደምኒወበመፈስኒውእቱዘስምዐይከውንከመመንፈሰጽድቅ።
For there are three who testify:
並且有聖靈作見證，因為聖靈就是真理。
5:8
እስመሠለስቱእሙንቱእለይከውኑስምዐመንፈስወማይወደምወሠለስቲሆሙአሐዱእሙንቱ።
the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and the three agree as one.
He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn’t believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
我將這些話寫給你們信奉上帝兒子之名的人，要叫你們知道自己有永生。
5:14

This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.
我們若照他的旨意求甚麼，他就聽我們，這是我們向他所存坦然無懼的心。
5:15
ወእመሰርኢነከመዘሰአልናሁይሰምዐነነአምርእንከከመብነስእለትዘሰአልነበኀቤሁ።
And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not leading to death, he shall ask, and God will give him life for those who sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I don’t say that he should make a request concerning this.
人若看見弟兄犯了不至於死的罪，就當為他祈求，上帝必將生命賜給他；有至於死的罪，我不說當為這罪祈求。
5:17
እስመኵላአበሳኀጢአትይእቲወቦጌጋይዘኢኮነለሞት።
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not leading to death.
We know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
