Vamvas Modern Greek Bible: Vamvas (1850)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Εκείνο, το οποίον ήτο απ' αρχής, το οποίον ηκούσαμεν, το οποίον είδομεν με τους οφθαλμούς ημών, το οποίον εθεωρήσαμεν και αι χείρες ημών εψηλάφησαν, περί του Λόγου της ζωής·
1 That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life
2 και η ζωή εφανερώθη, και είδομεν και μαρτυρούμεν και απαγγέλλομεν προς εσάς την ζωήν την αιώνιον, ήτις ήτο παρά τω Πατρί και εφανερώθη εις ημάς
2 (and the life was revealed, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the life, the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was revealed to us);
3 εκείνο, το οποίον είδομεν και ηκούσαμεν, απαγγέλλομεν προς εσάς· διά να έχητε και σεις κοινωνίαν μεθ' ημών· και η κοινωνία δε ημών είναι μετά του Πατρός και μετά του Υιού αυτού Ιησού Χριστού.
3 that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. Yes, and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.
4 Και ταύτα γράφομεν προς εσάς, διά να ήναι πλήρης η χαρά σας.
4 And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
5 Και αύτη είναι η επαγγελία, την οποίαν ηκούσαμεν απ' αυτού και αναγγέλλομεν προς εσάς, ότι ο Θεός είναι φως και σκοτία εν αυτώ δεν υπάρχει ουδεμία.
5 This is the message which we have heard from him and announce to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 Εάν είπωμεν ότι κοινωνίαν έχομεν μετ' αυτού και περιπατώμεν εν τω σκότει, ψευδόμεθα και δεν πράττομεν την αλήθειαν·
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
7 εάν όμως περιπατώμεν εν τω φωτί, καθώς αυτός είναι εν τω φωτί, έχομεν κοινωνίαν μετ' αλλήλων, και το αίμα του Ιησού Χριστού του Υιού αυτού καθαρίζει ημάς από πάσης αμαρτίας.
7 But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.
8 Εάν είπωμεν ότι αμαρτίαν δεν έχομεν, εαυτούς πλανώμεν και η αλήθεια δεν είναι εν ημίν.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Εάν ομολογώμεν τας αμαρτίας ημών, είναι πιστός και δίκαιος, ώστε να συγχωρήση εις ημάς τας αμαρτίας και καθαρίση ημάς από πάσης αδικίας.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Εάν είπωμεν ότι δεν ημαρτήσαμεν, ψεύστην κάμνομεν αυτόν, και ο λόγος αυτού δεν υπάρχει εν ημίν.
10 If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

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).

  4. Quotes verse 1:8 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XIV, Chapter 9)

    For the words of the apostle are the confession, not of the common herd, but of the eminently pious, just, and holy men: "If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." When there shall be no sin in a man, then there shall be this apatheia.
