Ἴδετε ποταπὴν ἀγάπην δέδωκεν ἡμῖν ὁ πατὴρ ἵνα τέκνα θεοῦ κληθῶμεν · καὶ ἐσμέν . διὰ τοῦτο ὁ κόσμος οὐ γινώσκει ἡμᾶς ὅτι οὐκ ἔγνω αὐτόν .
See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.
你看父賜給我們是何等的慈愛，使我們得稱為上帝的兒女；我們也真是他的兒女。世人所以不認識我們，是因未曾認識他。
3:2▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
Ἀγαπητοί , νῦν τέκνα θεοῦ ἐσμεν , καὶ οὔπω ἐφανερώθη τί ἐσόμεθα . οἴδαμεν ὅτι ἐὰν φανερωθῇ ὅμοιοι αὐτῷ ἐσόμεθα , ὅτι ὀψόμεθα αὐτὸν καθώς ἐστιν .
Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
親愛的弟兄啊，我們現在是上帝的兒女，將來如何，還未顯明；但我們知道，主若顯現，我們必要像他，因為必得見他的真體。

καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἔχων τὴν ἐλπίδα ταύτην ἐπ’ αὐτῷ ἁγνίζει ἑαυτὸν καθὼς ἐκεῖνος ἁγνός ἐστιν .
Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
凡向他有這指望的，就潔淨自己，像他潔淨一樣。
3:4▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
πᾶς ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν καὶ τὴν ἀνομίαν ποιεῖ , καὶ ἡ ἁμαρτία ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία .
Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
凡犯罪的，就是違背律法；違背律法就是罪。
3:5▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ἐφανερώθη ἵνα τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἄρῃ , καὶ ἁμαρτία ἐν αὐτῷ οὐκ ἔστιν .
You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
你們知道主曾顯現，是要除掉人的罪，在他並沒有罪。
3:6▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
πᾶς ὁ ἐν αὐτῷ μένων οὐχ ἁμαρτάνει · πᾶς ὁ ἁμαρτάνων οὐχ ἑώρακεν αὐτὸν οὐδὲ ἔγνωκεν αὐτόν .
Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
凡住在他裏面的，就不犯罪；凡犯罪的，是未曾看見他，也未曾認識他。
3:7▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
Τεκνία , μηδεὶς πλανάτω ὑμᾶς · ὁ ποιῶν τὴν δικαιοσύνην δίκαιός ἐστιν , καθὼς ἐκεῖνος δίκαιός ἐστιν ·
Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
小子們哪，不要被人誘惑。行義的才是義人，正如主是義的一樣。
3:8▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ὁ ποιῶν τὴν ἁμαρτίαν ἐκ τοῦ διαβόλου ἐστίν , ὅτι ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς ὁ διάβολος ἁμαρτάνει . εἰς τοῦτο ἐφανερώθη ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ , ἵνα λύσῃ τὰ ἔργα τοῦ διαβόλου .
He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.
犯罪的是屬魔鬼，因為魔鬼從起初就犯罪。上帝的兒子顯現出來，為要除滅魔鬼的作為。
3:9▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
πᾶς ὁ γεγεννημένος ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ ἁμαρτίαν οὐ ποιεῖ , ὅτι σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει · καὶ οὐ δύναται ἁμαρτάνειν , ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ γεγέννηται .
Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.
凡從上帝生的，就不犯罪，因上帝的道 存在他心裏；他也不能犯罪，因為他是由上帝生的。
3:10▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ἐν τούτῳ φανερά ἐστιν τὰ τέκνα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ τὰ τέκνα τοῦ διαβόλου · πᾶς ὁ μὴ ποιῶν δικαιοσύνην οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ θεοῦ , καὶ ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ .
In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.
從此就顯出誰是上帝的兒女，誰是魔鬼的兒女。凡不行義的就不屬上帝，不愛弟兄的也是如此。
3:11▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ὅτι αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀγγελία ἣν ἠκούσατε ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς , ἵνα ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους ·
For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
我們應當彼此相愛。這就是你們從起初所聽見的命令。
3:12▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
οὐ καθὼς Κάϊν ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ ἦν καὶ ἔσφαξεν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ · καὶ χάριν τίνος ἔσφαξεν αὐτόν ; ὅτι τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ πονηρὰ ἦν , τὰ δὲ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ αὐτοῦ δίκαια .
unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
不可像該隱；他是屬那惡者，殺了他的兄弟。為甚麼殺了他呢？因自己的行為是惡的，兄弟的行為是善的。
3:13▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
Καὶ μὴ θαυμάζετε , ἀδελφοί , εἰ μισεῖ ὑμᾶς ὁ κόσμος .
Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
弟兄們，世人若恨你們，不要以為希奇。
3:14▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ἡμεῖς οἴδαμεν ὅτι μεταβεβήκαμεν ἐκ τοῦ θανάτου εἰς τὴν ζωήν , ὅτι ἀγαπῶμεν τοὺς ἀδελφούς · ὁ μὴ ἀγαπῶν μένει ἐν τῷ θανάτῳ .
We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.
我們因為愛弟兄，就曉得是已經出死入生了。沒有愛心的，仍住在死中。
3:15▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
πᾶς ὁ μισῶν τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ ἀνθρωποκτόνος ἐστίν , καὶ οἴδατε ὅτι πᾶς ἀνθρωποκτόνος οὐκ ἔχει ζωὴν αἰώνιον ἐν ἑαυτῷ μένουσαν .
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.
凡恨他弟兄的，就是殺人的；你們曉得凡殺人的，沒有永生存在他裏面。
3:16▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ἐν τούτῳ ἐγνώκαμεν τὴν ἀγάπην , ὅτι ἐκεῖνος ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ ἔθηκεν · καὶ ἡμεῖς ὀφείλομεν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν τὰς ψυχὰς θεῖναι .
By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
主為我們捨命，我們從此就知道何為愛；我們也當為弟兄捨命。
3:17▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ὃς δ’ ἂν ἔχῃ τὸν βίον τοῦ κόσμου καὶ θεωρῇ τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ χρείαν ἔχοντα καὶ κλείσῃ τὰ σπλάγχνα αὐτοῦ ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ , πῶς ἡ ἀγάπη τοῦ θεοῦ μένει ἐν αὐτῷ ;
But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
凡有世上財物的，看見弟兄窮乏，卻塞住憐恤的心，愛上帝的心怎能存在他裏面呢？
3:18▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
Τεκνία , μὴ ἀγαπῶμεν λόγῳ μηδὲ τῇ γλώσσῃ ἀλλὰ ἐν ἔργῳ καὶ ἀληθείᾳ .
My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
小子們哪，我們相愛，不要只在言語和舌頭上，總要在行為和誠實上。
3:19▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γνωσόμεθα ὅτι ἐκ τῆς ἀληθείας ἐσμέν , καὶ ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πείσομεν τὰς καρδίας ἡμῶν ·
And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
從此就知道我們是屬真理的，並且我們的心在上帝面前可以安穩。
3:20▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
ὅτι ἐὰν καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν ἡ καρδία , ὅτι μείζων ἐστὶν ὁ θεὸς τῆς καρδίας ἡμῶν καὶ γινώσκει πάντα .
because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
我們的心若責備我們，上帝比我們的心大，一切事沒有不知道的。
3:21▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
Ἀγαπητοί , ἐὰν ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν μὴ καταγινώσκῃ ἡμῶν , παρρησίαν ἔχομεν πρὸς τὸν θεόν ,
Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
親愛的弟兄啊，我們的心若不責備我們，就可以向上帝坦然無懼了。
3:22▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
καὶ ὃ ἐὰν αἰτῶμεν λαμβάνομεν ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ , ὅτι τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ τηροῦμεν καὶ τὰ ἀρεστὰ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ποιοῦμεν .
so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
並且我們一切所求的，就從他得着；因為我們遵守他的命令，行他所喜悅的事。
3:23▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
καὶ αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ αὐτοῦ , ἵνα πιστεύσωμεν τῷ ὀνόματι τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ καὶ ἀγαπῶμεν ἀλλήλους , καθὼς ἔδωκεν ἐντολὴν ἡμῖν .
This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.
上帝的命令就是叫我們信他兒子耶穌基督的名，且照他所賜給我們的命令彼此相愛。
3:24▷ ⧉ ⤴︎
καὶ ὁ τηρῶν τὰς ἐντολὰς αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῷ μένει καὶ αὐτὸς ἐν αὐτῷ · καὶ ἐν τούτῳ γινώσκομεν ὅτι μένει ἐν ἡμῖν , ἐκ τοῦ πνεύματος οὗ ἡμῖν ἔδωκεν .
He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
遵守上帝命令的，就住在上帝裏面，上帝也住在他裏面。我們所以知道上帝住在我們裏面是因他所賜給我們的聖靈。
