New American Standard Bible 1995
1 John 1:2-10
2and 1the life was manifested, and we have 2seen and 3testify and proclaim to you 4the eternal life, which was 5with the Father and was 6manifested to us-- 3what we have 7seen and 8heard we proclaim to you also, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our 9fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ. 410These things we write, so that our 11joy may be made complete.
512This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that 13God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all. 614If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we 15lie and 16do not practice the truth; 7but if we 17walk in the Light as 18He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and 19the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. 820If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the 21truth is not in us. 922If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and 23to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1024If we say that we have not sinned, we 25make Him a liar and 26His word is not in us.
