1 Esta carta trata sobre la Palabra de vida que existía desde el principio, que hemos escuchado, que hemos visto con nuestros propios ojos y le hemos contemplado, y que hemos tocado con nuestras manos.
1 LO que era desde el principio, lo que hemos oído, lo que hemos visto con nuestros ojos, lo que hemos mirado, y palparon nuestras manos tocante al Verbo de vida;
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 Esta Vida nos fue revelada. La vimos y damos testimonio de ella. Estamos hablándoles de Aquél que es la Vida Eterna, que estaba con el Padre, y que nos fue revelado.
2 (Porque la vida fué manifestada, y vimos, y testificamos, y os anunciamos aquella vida eterna, la cual estaba con el Padre, y nos ha aparecido;)
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 Los que hemos visto y oído eso mismo les contamos, para que también puedan participar de esta amistad junto a nosotros. Esta amistad con el Padre y su Hijo Jesucristo.
3 Lo que hemos visto y oído, eso os anunciamos, para que también vosotros tengáis comunión con nosotros: y nuestra comunión verdaderamente es con el Padre, y con su Hijo Jesucristo.
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 Escribimos para decirles esto, a fin de que nuestra felicidad sea completa.
4 Y estas cosas os escribimos, para que vuestro gozo sea cumplido.
4 And we write these things to you, that our joy may be fulfilled.
5 Este es el mensaje que recibimos de él y que nosotros les declaramos a ustedes: Dios es luz, y no hay ningún vestigio de oscuridad en él.
5 Y este es el mensaje que oímos de él, y os anunciamos: Que Dios es luz, y en él no hay ningunas tinieblas.
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 Si decimos ser sus amigos, y seguimos viviendo en oscuridad, estamos mintiendo, y no vivimos en la verdad.
6 Si nosotros dijéremos que tenemos comunión con él, y andamos en tinieblas, mentimos, y no hacemos la verdad;
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him and walk in the darkness, we lie and don’t tell the truth.
7 Pero si vivimos en la luz, así como él está en la luz, entonces somos amigos unos con otros, y la sangre de Jesús, su Hijo, nos limpia de todo pecado.
7 Mas si andamos en luz, como él está en luz, tenemos comunión entre nosotros, y la sangre de Jesucristo su Hijo nos limpia de todo pecado.
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 Si decimos que no pecamos, nos engañamos a nosotros mismos, y la verdad no está en nosotros.
8 Si dijéremos que no tenemos pecado, nos engañamos á nosotros mismos, y no hay verdad en nosotros.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 Pero si confesamos nuestros pecados, él es fiel y justo para perdonar nuestros pecados y limpiarnos de todo lo malo que hay dentro de nosotros.
9 Si confesamos nuestros pecados, él es fiel y justo para que nos perdone nuestros pecados, y nos limpie de toda maldad.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 Si decimos que no hemos pecado, estamos llamando a Dios mentiroso, y su palabra no está en nosotros.
10 Si dijéremos que no hemos pecado, lo hacemos á él mentiroso, y su palabra no está en nosotros.
10 If we say that we haven’t sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

“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).

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.
