1 我小子们哪，我将这些话写给你们，是要叫你们不犯罪。若有人犯罪，在父那里我们有一位中保，就是那义者耶稣基督。 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may be without sin. And if any man is a sinner, we have a friend and helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, the upright one.

2 他为我们的罪作了挽回祭，不是单为我们的罪，也是为普天下人的罪。 He is the offering for our sins; and not for ours only, but for all the world.

3 我们若遵守他的诫命，就晓得是认识他。 And by this we may be certain that we have knowledge of him, if we keep his laws.

4 人若说“我认识他”，却不遵守他的诫命，便是说谎话的，真理也不在他心里了。 The man who says, I have knowledge of him, and does not keep his laws, is false, and there is nothing true in him.

5 凡遵守主道的，爱神的心在他里面实在是完全的，从此我们知道我们是在主里面。 But in every man who keeps his word, the love of God is made complete. By this we may be certain that we are in him.

6 人若说他住在主里面，就该自己照主所行的去行。 He who says that he is living in him, will do as he did.

7 亲爱的弟兄啊，我写给你们的，不是一条新命令，乃是你们从起初所受的旧命令；这旧命令就是你们所听见的道。 My loved ones, I do not give you a new law, but an old law which you had from the first; this old law is the word which came to your ears.

8 再者，我写给你们的是一条新命令，在主是真的，在你们也是真的；因为黑暗渐渐过去，真光已经照耀。 Again, I give you a new law, which is true in him and in you; for the night is near its end and the true light is even now shining out.

9 人若说自己在光明中，却恨他的弟兄，他到如今还是在黑暗里。 He who says that he is in the light, and has hate in his heart for his brother, is still in the dark.

10 爱弟兄的，就是住在光明中，在他并没有绊跌的缘由。 He who has love for his brother is in the light, and there is no cause of error in him.

11 惟独恨弟兄的是在黑暗里，且在黑暗里行，也不知道往哪里去，因为黑暗叫他眼睛瞎了。 But he who has hate for his brother is in the dark, walking in the dark with no knowledge of where he is going, unable to see because of the dark.

12 小子们哪，我写信给你们，因为你们的罪藉着主名得了赦免。 I am writing to you, my children, because you have forgiveness of sins through his name.
