1 यूहन्ना 4

1 हे प्रियों, हर एक आत्मा की प्रतीति न करो: वरन आत्माओं को परखो, कि वे परमेश्वर की ओर से हैं कि नहीं; क्योंकि बहुत से झूठे भविष्यद्वक्ता जगत में निकल खड़े हुए हैं।

2 परमेश्वर का आत्मा तुम इसी रीति से पहचान सकते हो, कि जो कोई आत्मा मान लेती है, कि यीशु मसीह शरीर में होकर आया है वह परमेश्वर की ओर से है।

3 और जो कोई आत्मा यीशु को नहीं मानती, वह परमेश्वर की ओर से नहीं; और वही तो मसीह के विरोधी की आत्मा है; जिस की चर्चा तुम सुन चुके हो, कि वह आने वाला है: और अब भी जगत में है।

4 हे बालको, तुम परमेश्वर के हो: और तुम ने उन पर जय पाई है; क्योंकि जो तुम में है, वह उस से जो संसार में है, बड़ा है।

5 वे संसार के हैं, इस कारण वे संसार की बातें बोलते हैं, और संसार उन की सुनता है।

6 हम परमेश्वर के हैं: जो परमेश्वर को जानता है, वह हमारी सुनता है; जो परमेश्वर को नहीं जानता वह हमारी नहीं सुनता; इसी प्रकार हम सत्य की आत्मा और भ्रम की आत्मा को पहचान लेते हैं।

7 हे प्रियों, हम आपस में प्रेम रखें; क्योंकि प्रेम परमेश्वर से है: और जो कोई प्रेम करता है, वह परमेश्वर से जन्मा है; और परमेश्वर को जानता है।

8 जो प्रेम नहीं रखता, वह परमेश्वर को नहीं जानता है, क्योंकि परमेश्वर प्रेम है।

9 जो प्रेम परमेश्वर हम से रखता है, वह इस से प्रगट हुआ, कि परमेश्वर ने अपने एकलौते पुत्र को जगत में भेजा है, कि हम उसके द्वारा जीवन पाएं।

10 प्रेम इस में नहीं कि हम ने परमेश्वर ने प्रेम किया; पर इस में है, कि उस ने हम से प्रेम किया; और हमारे पापों के प्रायश्चित्त के लिये अपने पुत्र को भेजा।

11 हे प्रियो, जब परमेश्वर ने हम से ऐसा प्रेम किया, तो हम को भी आपस में प्रेम रखना चाहिए।

12 परमेश्वर को कभी किसी ने नहीं देखा; यदि हम आपस में प्रेम रखें, तो परमेश्वर हम में बना रहता है; और उसका प्रेम हम में सिद्ध हो गया है।

13 इसी से हम जानते हैं, कि हम उस में बने रहते हैं, और वह हम में; क्योंकि उस ने अपने आत्मा में से हमें दिया है।

14 और हम ने देख भी लिया और गवाही देते हैं, कि पिता ने पुत्र को जगत का उद्धारकर्ता करके भेजा है।

15 जो कोई यह मान लेता है, कि यीशु परमेश्वर का पुत्र है: परमेश्वर उस में बना रहता है, और वह परमेश्वर में।

16 और जो प्रेम परमेश्वर हम से रखता है, उस को हम जान गए, और हमें उस की प्रतीति है; परमेश्वर प्रेम है: जो प्रेम में बना रहता है, वह परमेश्वर में बना रहता है; और परमेश्वर उस में बना रहता है।

17 इसी से प्रेम हम में सिद्ध हुआ, कि हमें न्याय के दिन हियाव हो; क्योंकि जैसा वह है, वैसे ही संसार में हम भी हैं।

18 प्रेम में भय नहीं होता, वरन सिद्ध प्रेम भय को दूर कर देता है, क्योंकि भय से कष्ट होता है, और जो भय करता है, वह प्रेम में सिद्ध नहीं हुआ।

19 हम इसलिये प्रेम करते हैं, कि पहिले उस ने हम से प्रेम किया।

20 यदि कोई कहे, कि मैं परमेश्वर से प्रेम रखता हूं; और अपने भाई से बैर रखे; तो वह झूठा है: क्योंकि जो अपने भाई से, जिस उस ने देखा है, प्रेम नहीं रखता, तो वह परमेश्वर से भी जिसे उस ने नहीं देखा, प्रेम नहीं रख सकता।

21 और उस से हमें यह आज्ञा मिली है, कि जो कोई अपने परमेश्वर से प्रेम रखता है, वह अपने भाई से भी प्रेम रखे॥

1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:

3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.

6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.

16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

19 We love him, because he first loved us.

20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

1 Say ye unto your brethren, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.

2 Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her whoredoms out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts;

3 Lest I strip her naked, and set her as in the day that she was born, and make her as a wilderness, and set her like a dry land, and slay her with thirst.

4 And I will not have mercy upon her children; for they be the children of whoredoms.

5 For their mother hath played the harlot: she that conceived them hath done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and my drink.

6 Therefore, behold, I will hedge up thy way with thorns, and make a wall, that she shall not find her paths.

7 And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.

8 For she did not know that I gave her corn, and wine, and oil, and multiplied her silver and gold, which they prepared for Baal.

9 Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness.

10 And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of mine hand.

11 I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.

12 And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, whereof she hath said, These are my rewards that my lovers have given me: and I will make them a forest, and the beasts of the field shall eat them.

13 And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat me, saith the Lord.

14 Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her.

15 And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

16 And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali.

17 For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.

18 And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely.

19 And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.

20 I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the Lord.

21 And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the Lord, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth;

22 And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel.

23 And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people; and they shall say, Thou art my God.
