1 John 5 Whosoeuer beleueth that Iesus is Christ, is borne of God. And euery one that loueth hym which begat, loueth him also which was begotten of him.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Whosoeuer beleueth that Iesus is Christ, is borne of God. And euery one that loueth hym which begat, loueth him also which was begotten of him. ² By this we knowe, that we loue the chyldren of God, when we loue God, and kepe his commaundementes. ³ For this is the loue of God, that We kepe his commaundementes, and his commaundementes are not greuous. ⁴ For all that is borne of God, ouercommeth the worlde. And this is the victory that ouer commeth the worlde, euen oure fayth. ⁵ Who is it that ouercommeth the worlde: but he which beleueth, that Iesus is the sonne of God? ⁶ This Iesus Christ is he that cam by water & bloud, not by water onely: but by water and bloud. And it is the sprete that beareth wytnes, because the sprete is trueth. ⁷ ⁸ And ther are thre which beare recorde the sprete & water, and bloud: & these thre are one. ⁹ If we receaue the wytnes of men, the witnes of God is greater. For this is the witnes of God which he testifyed of his sonne. ¹⁰ He that beleueth on the sonne of God, hath the witnes in hym selfe. He that be beleueth not God, hath made him a liar ¹¹ because he beleued not the recorde that God gaue of hys sonne. And this is that recorde, how that God hath geuen vnto vs eternall lyfe, & this lyfe is in hys sonne. ¹² He that hath the sonne hath lyfe: & he that hath not the sonne of God, hath not lyfe. ¹³ These thynges haue I wrytten vnto you that beleue on the name of the sonne of God, that ye maye knowe, how that ye haue eternall lyfe, & that ye maye beleue on the name of the sonne of God. ¹⁴ And thys is the trust that we haue in hym: that yf we aske eny thynge accordynge to hys wyll, he heareth vs. ¹⁵ And yf we knowe that he heare vs whatsoeuer we aske, we knowe, that we haue the peticyons, that we desyre of hym. ¹⁶ If eny man se hys brother synne a synne not vnto deeth, let him aske, & he shall geue him lyfe for them that synne not vnto deeth. Ther is a synne vnto deeth, for which saye I not that a man shuld praye. ¹⁷ All vnryghtewesnes is synne, & ther is synne not vnto deeth ¹⁸ We knowe, that whosoeuer is borne of God, synneth not: but he that is begotten of God, kepeth hym selfe, & that wycked toucheth hym not. ¹⁹ We knowe, that we are of God, and the worlde is all together set on wyckednes. ²⁰ We knowe, that the sonne of God is come, and hath geuen vs a mynde to knowe hym which is true: & we are in hym that is true, through is sonne Iesu Christ. This same is very God, and eternall lyfe. ²¹ Babes kepes youre selues from ymages. Amen.
