G1510–εἰμί–eimi

Beloved, now are we children of God, and what we shall be has not yet been manifested; we know that if it is manifested we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

ἐσμεν, esmen “are we,”ἐσόμεθα· esometha “we will be;”ἐσόμεθα, esometha “we will be,”ἐστιν. estin “He is.”

And every one that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as *he* is pure.

ἐστιν. estin “is.”

Every one that practises sin practises also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

And ye know that *he* has been manifested that he might take away our sins; and in him sin is not.

ἔστιν. estin “there is.”

Children, let no man lead you astray; he that practises righteousness is righteous, even as *he* is righteous.

ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστιν. estin “is.”

He that practises sin is of the devil; for from [ergänzt: the] beginning the devil sins. To this end the Son of God has been manifested, that he might undo the works of the devil.

ἐστίν, estin “is,”

In this are manifest the children of God and the children of the devil. Whoever does not practise righteousness is not of God, and he who does not love his brother.

ἐστιν estin “are”ἔστιν estin “is”

For this is the message which ye have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another:

ἐστὶν estin “is”

not as Cain was of the wicked one, and slew his brother; and on account of what slew he him? because his works were wicked, and those of his brother righteous.

ἦν ēn “was”ἦν, ēn “were,”

Every one that hates his brother is a murderer, and ye know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

ἐστίν· estin “is;”

And hereby we shall know that we are of the truth, and shall persuade our hearts before him --

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

that if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

And this is his commandment, that we believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and that we love one another, even as he has given us commandment.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but prove the spirits, if they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

ἐστιν, estin “they are,”

Hereby ye know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses Jesus Christ come in flesh is of God;

ἐστιν. estin “is.”

and every spirit which does not confess Jesus Christ come in flesh is not of God: and this is that [ergänzt: power] of the antichrist, [ergänzt: of] which ye have heard that it comes, and now it is already in the world.

ἔστιν· estin “is;”ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστὶν estin “is”

*Ye* are of God, children, and have overcome them, because greater is he that [ergänzt: is] in you than he that [ergänzt: is] in the world.

ἐστε, este “are,”ἐστὶν estin “is”

*They* are of the world; for this reason they speak [ergänzt: as] of the world, and the world hears them.

εἰσίν· eisin “are;”

*We* are of God; he that knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. From this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

ἐσμεν· esmen “are;”ἔστιν estin “is”

Beloved, let us love one another; because love is of God, and every one that loves has been begotten of God, and knows God.

ἐστιν estin “is”

He that loves not has not known God; for God is love.

ἐστίν. estin “is.”

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

ἐστὶν estin “is”

No one has seen God at any time: if we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us.

ἐστίν. estin “is.”

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

ἐστιν estin “is”

And *we* have known and have believed the love which God has to us. God is love, and he that abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

ἐστίν, estin “is,”
