1 John - Prima lettera di Giovanni 4

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Αγαπητοι, μη πιστευετε εις παν πνευμα, αλλα δοκιμαζετε τα πνευματα εν ηναι εκ του Θεου? διοτι πολλοι ψευδοπροφηται εξηλθον εις τον κοσμον.	1 Most beloved, do not be willing to believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are of God. For many false prophets have gone out into the world.
2 Εκ τουτου γνωριζετε το Πνευμα του Θεου? παν πνευμα, το οποιον ομολογει οτι ο Ιησους Χριστος ηλθεν εν σαρκι, ειναι εκ του Θεου?	2 The Spirit of God may be known in this way. Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ has arrived in the flesh is of God;
3 και παν πνευμα, το οποιον δεν ομολογει οτι ο Ιησους Χριστος ηλθεν εν σαρκι, δεν ειναι εκ του Θεου? και τουτο ειναι το πνευμα του αντιχριστου, το οποιον ηκουσατε οτι ερχεται, και τωρα μαλιστα ειναι εν τω κοσμω.	3 and every spirit who contradicts Jesus is not of God. And this one is the Antichrist, the one that you have heard is coming, and even now he is in the world.
4 Σεις εκ του Θεου εισθε, τεκνια, και ενικησατε αυτους, διοτι μεγαλητερος ειναι εκεινος οστις ειναι εν υμιν παρα οστις ειναι εν τω κοσμω.	4 Little sons, you are of God, and so you have overcome him. For he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
5 Αυτοι εκ του κοσμου ειναι? δια τουτο εκ του κοσμου λαλουσι, και ο κοσμος αυτους ακουει.	5 They are of the world. Therefore, they speak about the world, and the world listens to them.
6 ημεις εκ του Θεου ειμεθα? οστις γνωριζει τον Θεον ακουει ημας? οστις δεν ειναι εκ του Θεου δεν ακουει ημας. Εκ τουτου γνωριζομεν το πνευμα της αληθειας και το πνευμα της πλανης.	6 We are of God. Whoever knows God, listens to us. Whoever is not of God, does not listen to us. In this way, we know the Spirit of truth from the spirit of error.
7 Αγαπητοι, ας αγαπωμεν αλληλους, διοτι η αγαπη ειναι εκ του Θεου, και πας οστις αγαπα εκ του Θεου εγεννηθη και γνωριζει τον Θεον.	7 Most beloved, let us love one another. For love is of God. And everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
8 Οστις δεν αγαπα δεν εγνωρισε τον Θεον, διοτι ο Θεος ειναι αγαπη.	8 Whoever does not love, does not know God. For God is love.
9 Εν τουτω εφανερωθη η αγαπη του Θεου προς ημας, οτι τον Υιον αυτου τον μονογενη απεστειλεν ο Θεος εις τον κοσμον, δια να ζησωμεν δι' αυτου.	9 The love of God was made apparent to us in this way: that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
10 Εν τουτω ειναι η αγαπη, ουχι οτι ημεις ηγαπησαμεν τον Θεον, αλλ' οτι αυτος ηγαπησεν ημας και απεστειλε τον Υιον αυτου ιλασμον περι των αμαρτιων ημων.	10 In this is love: not as if we had loved God, but that he first loved us, and so he sent his Son as a propitiation for our sins.
11 Αγαπητοι επειδη ουτως ηγαπησεν ημας ο Θεος και ημεις χρεωστουμεν να αγαπωμεν αλληλους.	11 Most beloved, if God has so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
12 Τον Θεον ουδεις ειδε πωποτε? εαν αγαπωμεν αλληλους, ο Θεος μενει εν ημιν, και η αγαπη αυτου ειναι τετελειωμενη εν ημιν.	12 No one has ever seen God. But if we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us.
13 Εκ τουτου γνωριζομεν οτι εν αυτω μενομεν και αυτος εν ημιν, διοτι εκ του Πνευματος αυτου εδωκεν εις ημας.	13 In this way, we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he has given to us from his Spirit.
14 Και ημεις ειδομεν και μαρτυρουμεν οτι ο Πατηρ απεστειλε τον Υιον Σωτηρα του κοσμου.	14 And we have seen, and we testify, that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.
15 Οστις ομολογηση οτι ο Ιησους ειναι ο Υιος του Θεου, ο Θεος μενει εν αυτω και αυτος εν τω Θεω.	15 Whoever has confessed that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
16 Και ημεις εγνωρισαμεν και επιστευσαμεν την αγαπην την οποιαν εχει ο Θεος προς ημας. Ο Θεος ειναι αγαπη, και οστις μενει εν τη αγαπη εν τω Θεω μενει και ο Θεος εν αυτω.	16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love. And he who abides in love, abides in God, and God in him.
17 Εν τουτω ειναι τετελειωμενη η αγαπη μεθ' ημων, δια να εχωμεν παρρησιαν εν τη ημερα της κρισεως, διοτι καθως εκεινος ειναι, ουτω και ημεις ειμεθα εν τω κοσμω τουτω.	17 In this way, the love of God is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence on the day of judgment. For as he is, so also are we, in this world.
18 Φοβος δεν ειναι εν τη αγαπη, αλλ' η τελεια αγαπη εξω διωκει τον φοβον, διοτι ο φοβος εχει κολασιν? και ο φοβουμενος δεν ειναι τετελειωμενος εν τη αγαπη.	18 Fear is not in love. Instead, perfect love casts out fear, for fear pertains to punishment. And whoever fears is not perfected in love.
19 ημεις αγαπωμεν αυτον, διοτι αυτος πρωτος ηγαπησεν ημας.	19 Therefore, let us love God, for God first loved us.
20 Εαν τις ειπη οτι αγαπω τον Θεον, και μιση τον αδελφον αυτου, ψευστης ειναι? διοτι οστις δεν αγαπα τον αδελφον αυτου, τον οποιον ειδε, τον Θεον, τον οποιον δεν ειδε πως δυναται να αγαπα;	20 If anyone says that he loves God, but hates his brother, then he is a liar. For he who does not love his brother, whom he does see, in what way can he love God, whom he does not see?
21 Και ταυτην την εντολην εχομεν απ' αυτου, οστις αγαπα τον Θεον, να αγαπα και τον αδελφον αυτου.	21 And this is the commandment that we have from God, that he who loves God must also love his brother.
