Prima lettera di Giovanni 5

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Omnis, qui credit quoniam Iesus est Christus, ex Deo natus est; et omnis,qui diligit Deum, qui genuit, diligit et eum, qui natus est ex eo.	1 Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ, is born of God. And every one that loveth him who begot, loveth him also who is born of him.
2 In hoccognoscimus quoniam diligimus natos Dei, cum Deum diligamus et mandata eiusfaciamus.	2 In this we know that we love the children of God: when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 Haec est enim caritas Dei, ut mandata eius servemus; et mandata eiusgravia non sunt,	3 For this is the charity of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not heavy.
4 quoniam omne, quod natum est ex Deo, vincit mundum; et haecest victoria, quae vicit mundum: fides nostra.	4 For whatsoever is born of God, overcometh the world: and this is the victory which overcometh the world, our faith.
5 Quis est qui vincit mundum, nisi qui credit quoniam Iesus est Filius Dei?	5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
6 Hic est, qui venit per aquam et sanguinem, Iesus Christus; non in aqua solum sedin aqua et in sanguine. Et Spiritus est, qui testificatur, quoniam Spiritus estveritas.	6 This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ: not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit which testifieth, that Christ is the truth.
7 Quia tres sunt, qui testificantur:	7 And there are three who give testimony in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost. And these three are one.
8 Spiritus et aqua et sanguis; ethi tres in unum sunt.	8 And there are three that give testimony on earth: the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three are one.
9 Si testimonium hominum accipimus, testimonium Dei maiusest, quoniam hoc est testimonium Dei, quia testificatus est de Filio suo.	9 If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater. For this is the testimony of God, which is greater, because he hath testified of his Son.
10 Qui credit in Filium Dei, habet testimonium in se. Qui non credit Deo,mendacem facit eum, quoniam non credidit in testimonium, quod testificatus estDeus de Filio suo.	10 He that believeth in the Son of God, hath the testimony of God in himself. He that believeth not the Son, maketh him a liar: because he believeth not in the testimony which God hath testified of his Son.
11 Et hoc est testimonium, quoniam vitam aeternam dedit nobisDeus, et haec vita in Filio eius est.	11 And this is the testimony, that God hath given to us eternal life. And this life is in his Son.
12 Qui habet Filium, habet vitam; qui nonhabet Filium Dei, vitam non habet.	12 He that hath the Son, hath life. He that hath not the Son, hath not life.
13 Haec scripsi vobis, ut sciatis quoniam vitam habetis aeternam, qui creditisin nomen Filii Dei.	13 These things I write to you, that you may know that you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.
14 Et haec est fiducia, quam habemus ad eum, quia si quid petierimus secundumvoluntatem eius, audit nos.	14 And this is the confidence which we have towards him: That, whatsoever we shall ask according to his will, he heareth us.
15 Et si scimus quoniam audit nos, quidquidpetierimus, scimus quoniam habemus petitiones, quas postulavimus ab eo.	15 And we know that he heareth us whatsoever we ask: we know that we have the petitions which we request of him.
16 Si quis videt fratrem suum peccare peccatum non ad mortem, petet, et dabit eiDeus vitam, peccantibus non ad mortem. Est peccatum ad mortem; non pro illodico, ut roget.	16 He that knoweth his brother to sin a sin which is not to death, let him ask, and life shall be given to him, who sinneth not to death. There is a sin unto death: for that I say not that any man ask.
17 Omnis iniustitia peccatum est, et est peccatum non ad mortem.	17 All iniquity is sin. And there is a sin unto death.
18 Scimus quoniam omnis, qui natus est ex Deo, non peccat, sed ille, qui genitusest ex Deo, conservat eum, et Malignus non tangit eum.	18 We know that whosoever is born of God, sinneth not: but the generation of God preserveth him, and the wicked one toucheth him not.
19 Scimus quoniam ex Deosumus, et mundus totus in Maligno positus est.	19 We know that we are of God, and the whole world is seated in wickedness.
20 Et scimus quoniam Filius Deivenit et dedit nobis sensum, ut cognoscamus eum, qui verus est; et sumus in eo,qui verus est, in Filio eius Iesu Christo. Hic est qui verus est, Deus et vitaaeterna.	20 And we know that the Son of God is come: and he hath given us understanding that we may know the true God, and may be in his true Son. This is the true God and life eternal.
21 Filioli, custodite vos a simulacris!	21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.
