1 Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God; and [such] we are. For this cause the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
1 See how great a love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God! For this cause the world doesn’t know us, because it didn’t know him.
2 Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is.
2 Beloved, now we are children of God. It is not yet revealed what we will be; but we know that when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him just as he is.
3 And every one that hath this hope [set] on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.
3 Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
4 Every one that doeth sin doeth also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.
4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.
5 And ye know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin.
5 You know that he was revealed to take away our sins, and no sin is in him.
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither knoweth him.
6 Whoever remains in him doesn’t sin. Whoever sins hasn’t seen him and doesn’t know him.
7 [My] little children, let no man lead you astray: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous:
7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 he that doeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
8 He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. To this end the Son of God was revealed: that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God.
9 Whoever is born of God doesn’t commit sin, because his seed remains in him, and he can’t sin, because he is born of God.
10 In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother.
10 In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.
11 For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another:
11 For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another—
12 not as Cain was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
12 unlike Cain, who was of the evil one and killed his brother. Why did he kill him? Because his deeds were evil, and his brother’s righteous.
13 Marvel not, brethren, if the world hateth you.
13 Don’t be surprised, my brothers, if the world hates you.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who doesn’t love his brother remains in death.
15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life remaining in him.
16 Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
16 By this we know love, because he laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers.
17 But whoso hath the world’s goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him?
17 But whoever has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, then closes his heart of compassion against him, how does God’s love remain in him?
18 [My] little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.
18 My little children, let’s not love in word only, or with the tongue only, but in deed and truth.
19 Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him:
19 And by this we know that we are of the truth and persuade our hearts before him,
20 because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
20 because if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God;
21 Beloved, if our hearts don’t condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
22 and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment.
23 This is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he commanded.
24 And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.
24 He who keeps his commandments remains in him, and he in him. By this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
Hear intently, I do beseech you, because it is no small matter that we have to cope withal: and I doubt not, because ye were intent upon it yesterday, that ye have with even greater intentness of purpose come together to-day.
