G1510–εἰμί–eimi

Moost dere britheren, now we ben the sones of God, and yit it apperide not, what we schulen be. We witen, that whanne he schal appere, we schulen be lijk hym, for we schulen se hym as he is.

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

And ech man that hath this hope in hym, makith hym silf hooli, as he is hooli.

ἐστιν. estin “is.”

Ech man that doith synne, doith also wickidnesse, and synne is wickidnesse.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

And ye witen, that he apperide to do awei synnes, and synne is not in hym.

ἔστιν. estin “there is.”

Litle sones, no man disseyue you; he that doith riytwysnesse, is iust, as also he is iust.

ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστιν. estin “is.”

He that doith synne, is of the deuel; for the deuel synneth fro the bigynnyng. In this thing the sone of God apperide, that he vndo the werkis of the deuel.

ἐστίν, estin “is,”

In this thing the sones of God ben knowun, and the sones of the feend. Ech man that is not iust, is not of God, and he that loueth not his brothir.

ἐστιν estin “are”ἔστιν estin “is”

For this is the tellyng, that ye herden at the bigynnyng, that ye loue ech othere;

ἐστὶν estin “is”

not as Caym, that was of the yuele, and slouy his brother. And for what thing slouy he him? for hise werkis weren yuele, and hise brotheris iust.

ἦν ēn “was”ἦν, ēn “were,”

Ech man that hatith his brother, is a man sleere; and ye witen, that ech mansleere hath not euerlastinge lijf dwellinge in hym.

ἐστίν· estin “is;”

In this thing we knowen, that we ben of treuthe, and in his siyt we monesten oure hertis.

ἐσμὲν esmen “we are”

For if oure herte repreueth vs, God is more than oure hert, and knowith alle thingis.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

And this is the comaundement of God, that we bileue in the name of his sone Jhesu Crist, and that we loue ech othere, as he yaf heeste to vs.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

Moost dere britheren, nyle ye bileue to ech spirit, but preue ye spiritis, if thei ben of God; for many false prophetis wenten out in to the world.

ἐστιν, estin “they are,”

In this thing the spirit of God is knowun; ech spirit that knowlechith that Jhesu Crist hath come in fleisch, is of God;

ἐστιν. estin “is.”

and ech spirit that fordoith Jhesu, is not of God. And this is antecrist, of whom ye herden, that he cometh; and riyt now he is in the world.

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

Ye, litle sones, ben of God, and ye han ouercome hym; for he that is in you is more, than he that is in the world.

ἐστε, este “are,”ἐστὶν estin “is”

Thei ben of the world, therfor thei speken of the world, and the world herith hem.

εἰσίν· eisin “are;”

We ben of God; he that knowith God, herith vs; he that is not of God, herith not vs. In this thing we knowen the spirit of treuthe, and the spirit of errour.

ἐσμεν· esmen “are;”ἔστιν estin “is”

Moost dere britheren, loue we togidere, for charite is of God; and ech that loueth his brother, is borun of God, and knowith God.

ἐστιν estin “is”

He that loueth not, knowith not God; for God is charite.

ἐστίν. estin “is.”

In this thing is charite, not as we hadden loued God, but for he firste louede vs, and sente hise sone foryyuenesse for oure synnes.

ἐστὶν estin “is”

No man say euer God; if we louen togidre, God dwellith in vs, and the charite of hym is perfit in vs.

ἐστίν. estin “is.”

Who euer knowlechith, that Jhesu is the sone of God, God dwellith in him, and he in God.

ἐστιν estin “is”

And we han knowun, and bileuen to the charite, that God hath in vs. God is charite, and he that dwellith in charite, dwellith in God, and God in hym.

ἐστίν, estin “is,”
