1 كُلُّ مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ فَقَدْ وُلِدَ مِنَ ٱللهِ. وَكُلُّ مَنْ يُحِبُّ ٱلْوَالِدَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمَوْلُودَ مِنْهُ أَيْضًا. 2 بِهَذَا نَعْرِفُ أَنَّنَا نُحِبُّ أَوْلَادَ ٱللهِ: إِذَا أَحْبَبْنَا ٱللهَ وَحَفِظْنَا وَصَايَاهُ. 3 فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ مَحَبَّةُ ٱللهِ: أَنْ نَحْفَظَ وَصَايَاهُ. وَوَصَايَاهُ لَيْسَتْ ثَقِيلَةً، 4 لِأَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ وُلِدَ مِنَ ٱللهِ يَغْلِبُ ٱلْعَالَمَ. وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْغَلَبَةُ ٱلَّتِي تَغْلِبُ ٱلْعَالَمَ: إِيمَانُنَا. 5 مَنْ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَغْلِبُ ٱلْعَالَمَ، إِلَّا ٱلَّذِي يُؤْمِنُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ هُوَ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ؟ 6 هَذَا هُوَ ٱلَّذِي أَتَى بِمَاءٍ وَدَمٍ، يَسُوعُ ٱلْمَسِيحُ. لَا بِٱلْمَاءِ فَقَطْ، بَلْ بِٱلْمَاءِ وَٱلدَّمِ. وَٱلرُّوحُ هُوَ ٱلَّذِي يَشْهَدُ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ هُوَ ٱلْحَقُّ. 7◆ فَإِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ يَشْهَدُونَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ هُمْ ثَلَاثَةٌ: ٱلْآبُ، وَٱلْكَلِمَةُ، وَٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ. وَهَؤُلَاءِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةُ هُمْ وَاحِدٌ. 8◆ وَٱلَّذِينَ يَشْهَدُونَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ هُمْ ثَلَاثَةٌ: ٱلرُّوحُ، وَٱلْمَاءُ، وَٱلدَّمُ. وَٱلثَّلَاثَةُ هُمْ فِي ٱلْوَاحِدِ. 9 إِنْ كُنَّا نَقْبَلُ شَهَادَةَ ٱلنَّاسِ، فَشَهَادَةُ ٱللهِ أَعْظَمُ، لِأَنَّ هَذِهِ هِيَ شَهَادَةُ ٱللهِ ٱلَّتِي قَدْ شَهِدَ بِهَا عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ. 10 مَنْ يُؤْمِنُ بِٱبْنِ ٱللهِ فَعِنْدَهُ ٱلشَّهَادَةُ فِي نَفْسِهِ. مَنْ لَا يُصَدِّقُ ٱللهَ، فَقَدْ جَعَلَهُ كَاذِبًا، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُؤْمِنْ بِٱلشَّهَادَةِ ٱلَّتِي قَدْ شَهِدَ بِهَا ٱللهُ عَنِ ٱبْنِهِ. 11 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلشَّهَادَةُ: أَنَّ ٱللهَ أَعْطَانَا حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّةً، وَهَذِهِ ٱلْحَيَاةُ هِيَ فِي ٱبْنِهِ. 12 مَنْ لَهُ ٱلِٱبْنُ فَلَهُ ٱلْحَيَاةُ، وَمَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ فَلَيْسَتْ لَهُ ٱلْحَيَاةُ. 13 كَتَبْتُ هَذَا إِلَيْكُمْ، أَنْتُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ بِٱسْمِ ٱبْنِ ٱللهِ، لِكَيْ تَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ لَكُمْ حَيَاةً أَبَدِيَّةً، وَلِكَيْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِٱسْمِ ٱبْنِ ٱللهِ. 14 وَهَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلثِّقَةُ ٱلَّتِي لَنَا عِنْدَهُ: أَنَّهُ إِنْ طَلَبْنَا شَيْئًا حَسَبَ مَشِيئَتِهِ يَسْمَعُ لَنَا. 15 وَإِنْ كُنَّا نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ مَهْمَا طَلَبْنَا يَسْمَعُ لَنَا، نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ لَنَا ٱلطَّلَبَاتِ ٱلَّتِي طَلَبْنَاهَا مِنْهُ. 16 إِنْ رَأَى أَحَدٌ أَخَاهُ يُخْطِئُ خَطِيَّةً لَيْسَتْ لِلْمَوْتِ، يَطْلُبُ، فَيُعْطِيَهُ حَيَاةً لِلَّذِينَ يُخْطِئُونَ لَيْسَ لِلْمَوْتِ. تُوجَدُ خَطِيَّةٌ لِلْمَوْتِ. لَيْسَ لِأَجْلِ هَذِهِ أَقُولُ أَنْ يُطْلَبَ. 17 كُلُّ إِثْمٍ هُوَ خَطِيَّةٌ، وَتُوجَدُ خَطِيَّةٌ لَيْسَتْ لِلْمَوْتِ. 18 نَعْلَمُ أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ وُلِدَ مِنَ ٱللهِ لَا يُخْطِئُ، بَلِ ٱلْمَوْلُودُ مِنَ ٱللهِ يَحْفَظُ نَفْسَهُ، وَٱلشِّرِّيرُ لَا يَمَسُّهُ. 19 نَعْلَمُ أَنَّنَا نَحْنُ مِنَ ٱللهِ، وَٱلْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ قَدْ وُضِعَ فِي ٱلشِّرِّيرِ. 20 وَنَعْلَمُ أَنَّ ٱبْنَ ٱللهِ قَدْ جَاءَ وَأَعْطَانَا بَصِيرَةً لِنَعْرِفَ ٱلْحَقَّ. وَنَحْنُ فِي ٱلْحَقِّ فِي ٱبْنِهِ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. هَذَا هُوَ ٱلْإِلَهُ ٱلْحَقُّ وَٱلْحَيَاةُ ٱلْأَبَدِيَّةُ. 21 أَيُّهَا ٱلْأَوْلَادُ، ٱحْفَظُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَصْنَامِ. آمِينَ.

Why does my Bible say something different?
- 1 John 5:7–8: the “three heavenly witnesses”
Older English and Spanish Bibles read: “there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” These words, called the Johannine Comma, are absent from virtually every Greek manuscript before the late Middle Ages and from the Greek Fathers. The Patriarchal Text prints them in small type, kept at the wish of the Holy Synod. The Trinity does not depend on them.
What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
I Suppose ye remember, those of you who were present yesterday, to what place in the course of this epistle our exposition has reached: namely, "He that loveth not his brother whom he seeth, how can he love God whom he seeth not?

… but is of antichrist." These words agree with what was said in the Gospel, that "the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us." Wherefore he again exclaims in his Epistle, "Every one that believeth that Jesus is the Christ, has been born of God;" knowing Jesus Christ to be one and the same, to whom the gates of heaven …
There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it." For he manifestly shows that there are certain brethren for whom we are not commanded to pray, although the Lord bids us pray even for our persecutors.

And he that loveth Him that begat, loveth Him also that is begotten of Him; but he that despiseth Him that is begotten casts back the insult upon Him who begat.

What about John then, when in his Catholic Epistle he says that there are Three that bear witness, the Spirit and the Water and the Blood?
