1 Everyone who is believing that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten of God, and everyone who is loving Him who begot, also loves him who is begotten of Him.

2 In this we know that we love the children of God, when we may love God and may keep His commands;

3 for this is the love of God, that we may keep His commands, and His commands are not burdensome;

4 because everyone who is begotten of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcame the world—our faith.

5 Who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?

6 This One is He who came through water and blood—Jesus the Christ, not in water only, but in the water and the blood; and the Spirit is the [One] testifying, because the Spirit is the truth,

7 because [there] are three who are testifying [[in Heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one;

8 and [there] are three who are testifying in the earth]]: the Spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are into the one.
