Prima lettera di Giovanni (1 يوحنا) 4

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 ايها الاحباء لا تصدقوا كل روح بل امتحنوا الارواح هل هي من الله لان انبياء كذبة كثيرين قد خرجوا الى العالم.	1 Dearly beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits if they be of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 بهذا تعرفون روح الله. كل روح يعترف بيسوع المسيح انه قد جاء في الجسد فهو من الله.	2 By this is the spirit of God known. Every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God:
3 وكل روح لا يعترف بيسوع المسيح انه قد جاء في الجسد فليس من الله. وهذا هو روح ضد المسيح الذي سمعتم انه يأتي والآن هو في العالم.	3 And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus, is not of God: and this is Antichrist, of whom you have heard that he cometh, and he is now already in the world.
4 انتم من الله ايها الاولاد وقد غلبتموهم لان الذي فيكم اعظم من الذي في العالم.	4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome him. Because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5 هم من العالم. من اجل ذلك يتكلمون من العالم والعالم يسمع لهم.	5 They are of the world: therefore of the world they speak, and the world heareth them.
6 نحن من الله فمن يعرف الله يسمع لنا ومن ليس من الله لا يسمع لنا. من هذا نعرف روح الحق وروح الضلال.	6 We are of God. He that knoweth God, heareth us. He that is not of God, heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 ايها الاحباء لنحب بعضنا بعضا لان المحبة هي من الله وكل من يحب فقد ولد من الله ويعرف الله.	7 Dearly beloved, let us love one another, for charity is of God. And every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 ومن لا يحب لم يعرف الله لان الله محبة.	8 He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity.
9 بهذا أظهرت محبة الله فينا ان الله قد ارسل ابنه الوحيد الى العالم لكي نحيا به.	9 By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.
10 في هذه هي المحبة ليس اننا نحن احببنا الله بل انه هو احبنا وارسل ابنه كفارة لخطايانا	10 In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.
11 ايها الاحباء ان كان الله قد احبنا هكذا ينبغي لنا ايضا ان يحب بعضنا بعضا.	11 My dearest, if God hath so loved us; we also ought to love one another.
12 الله لم ينظره احد قط. ان احب بعضنا بعضا فالله يثبت فينا ومحبته قد تكملت فينا.	12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and his charity is perfected in us.
13 بهذا نعرف اننا نثبت فيه وهو فينا انه قد اعطانا من روحه.	13 In this we know that we abide in him, and he in us: because he hath given us of his spirit.
14 ونحن قد نظرنا ونشهد ان الآب قد ارسل الابن مخلّصا للعالم.	14 And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 من اعترف ان يسوع هو ابن الله فالله يثبت فيه وهو في الله.	15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abideth in him, and he in God.
16 ونحن قد عرفنا وصدقنا المحبة التي للّه فينا. الله محبة ومن يثبت في المحبة يثبت في الله والله فيه.	16 And we have known, and have believed the charity, which God hath to us. God is charity: and he that abideth in charity, abideth in God, and God in him.
17 بهذا تكملت المحبة فينا ان يكون لنا ثقة في يوم الدين لانه كما هو في هذا العالم هكذا نحن ايضا.	17 In this is the charity of God perfected with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment: because as he is, we also are in this world.
18 لا خوف في المحبة بل المحبة الكاملة تطرح الخوف الى خارج لان الخوف له عذاب واما من خاف فلم يتكمل في المحبة.	18 Fear is not in charity: but perfect charity casteth out fear, because fear hath pain. And he that feareth, is not perfected in charity.
19 نحن نحبه لانه هو احبنا اولا.	19 Let us therefore love God, because God first hath loved us.
20 ان قال احد اني احب الله وابغض اخاه فهو كاذب. لان من لا يحب اخاه الذي ابصره كيف يقدر ان يحب الله الذي لم يبصره.	20 If any man say, I love God, and hateth his brother; he is a liar. For he that loveth not his brother, whom he seeth, how can he love God, whom he seeth not?
21 ولنا هذه الوصية منه ان من يحب الله يحب اخاه ايضا	21 And this commandment we have from God, that he, who loveth God, love also his brother.
