Red-Letter King James Bible 1769 Edition (KJV)

1 John 1

1 He describeth the person of Christ, in whom we have eternal life, by a communion with God: 5 to which we must adjoin holiness of life, to testify the truth of that our communion and profession of faith, as also to assure us of the forgiveness of our sins by Christ's death.

 1:1 ¶ That which 3739 was 2258 z5713 from 575 the beginning, 746 which 3739 we have heard, 191 z5754 which 3739 we have seen 3708 z5758 with our 2257 eyes, 3788 which 3739 we have looked upon, 2300 z5662 and 2532 our 2257 hands 5495 have handled, 5584 z5656 of 4012 the x3588 Word 3056 of life; 2222

 1:2 (For 2532 the x3588 life 2222 was manifested, 5319 z5681 and 2532 we have seen 3708 z5758 [it], and 2532 bear witness, 3140 z5719 and 2532 shew 518 z5719 unto you 5213 that eternal 166 life, 2222 which 3748 was 2258 z5713 with 4314 the x3588 Father, 3962 and 2532 was manifested 5319 z5681 unto us;) 2254

 1:3 That which 3739 we have seen 3708 z5758 and 2532 heard 191 z5754 declare x518 we y518 z5719 unto you, 5213 that 2443 ye 5210 also 2532 may have 2192 z5725 fellowship 2842 with 3326 us: 2257 and 2532 truly x1161 our 2251 fellowship 2842 y1161 [is] with 3326 the x3588 Father, 3962 and 2532 with 3326 his y846 x848 Son 5207 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 1:4 And 2532 these things 5023 write x1125 we y1125 z5719 unto you, 5213 that 2443 your 5216 joy 5479 may be 5600 z5753 full. 4137 z5772

 1:5 This 3778 then 2532 is 2076 z5748 the x3588 message 1860 which 3739 we have heard 191 z5754 of 575 him, 846 and 2532 declare 312 z5719 unto you, 5213 that 3754 God 2316 is 2076 z5748 light, 5457 and 2532 in 1722 him 846 is 2076 z5748 no 3756 darkness 4653 at all. 3762

 1:6 If 1437 we say 2036 z5632 that 3754 we have 2192 z5719 fellowship 2842 with 3326 him, 846 and 2532 walk 4043 z5725 in 1722 darkness, 4655 we lie, 5574 z5727 and 2532 do 4160 z5719 not 3756 the x3588 truth: 225

 1:7 But 1161 if 1437 we walk 4043 z5725 in 1722 the x3588 light, 5457 as 5613 he 846 is 2076 z5748 in 1722 the x3588 light, 5457 we have 2192 z5719 fellowship 2842 one with another, 3326 240 and 2532 the x3588 blood 129 of Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 his 846 Son 5207 cleanseth 2511 z5719 us 2248 from 575 all 3956 sin. 266

 1:8 If 1437 we say 2036 z5632 that 3754 we have 2192 z5719 no 3756 sin, 266 we deceive 4105 z5719 ourselves, 1438 and 2532 the x3588 truth 225 is 2076 z5748 not 3756 in 1722 us. 2254

 1:9 If 1437 we confess 3670 z5725 our 2257 sins, 266 he is 2076 z5748 faithful 4103 and 2532 just 1342 to 2443 forgive 863 z5632 us 2254 [our] sins, 266 and 2532 to cleanse 2511 z5661 us 2248 from 575 all 3956 unrighteousness. 93

 1:10 If 1437 we say 2036 z5632 that 3754 we have y264 z0 not 3756 sinned, 264 z5758 we make 4160 z5719 him 846 a liar, 5583 and 2532 his y846 x848 word 3056 is 2076 z5748 not 3756 in 1722 us. 2254
