1 John 1 :: Darby Translation (DBY)

1Jo 1:1

1Jo 1:1That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes; that which we contemplated, and our hands handled, concerning the word of life;

1Jo 1:2

1Jo 1:2(and the life has been manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and report to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and has been manifested to us:)

1Jo 1:3

1Jo 1:3that which we have seen and heard we report to you, that *ye* also may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship is indeed with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

1Jo 1:4

1Jo 1:4And these things write we to you that your joy may be full.

God Is Light

1Jo 1:5

1Jo 1:5And this is the message which we have heard from him, and declare to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

1Jo 1:6

1Jo 1:6If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not practise the truth.

1Jo 1:7

1Jo 1:7But 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.

1Jo 1:8

1Jo 1:8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

1Jo 1:9

1Jo 1:9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1Jo 1:10

1Jo 1:10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
