English Majority Text Version 2009

New Testament

   

5:1Everyone that believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone that loves Him that begot also loves him that is begotten of Him.
5:2By this we know that we love the children of God, whenever we love God and keep His commandments.
5:3For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome,
5:4because everything having been born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that has overcome the world-your faith.
5:5Who is he that overcomes the world, if not he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
5:6This is He who came through water and blood-Jesus Christ, not only by the water, but by the water and the blood. And the Spirit is He[ ]who witnesses, because the Spirit is the truth.
5:7For there are three that bear witness:
5:8the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.
5:9If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; because this is the testimony of God which He has testified concerning His Son.
5:10He that believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; he that does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony which God has testified concerning His Son.
5:11And this is the testimony: that God has given to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
5:12He that has the Son has life; he that does not have the Son of God does not have life.
5:13These things I write to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may believe in the name of the Son of God.
5:14And this is the confidence that we have toward Him, that if we should ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
5:15And if we know that He hears us, whatever we may ask, we know that we have the requests that we have requested from Him.
5:16If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not [leading] to death, he shall ask, and He shall give him life for those who do not sin unto death. There is a sin [leading] to death. I do not say that he should ask about that.
5:17All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not [leading] to death.
5:18We know that everyone begotten of God does not sin; but he that was begotten of God keeps himself, and the evil [one] does not touch him.
5:19We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies [under the sway] of the evil [one].
5:20And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true; and we are in Him that is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
5:21Little children, guard yourselves from idols. Amen.

English Majority Text Version

PREFACE

Welcome to the third edition of The English Majority Text Version (EMTV) of the Holy Bible. This latest edition has Greek explanatory notes throughout the Bible, to aid the reader in understanding the meanings in some select places of the original Koine Greek. Also, the third edition finds itself closer to the Robinson/Pierpoint printed edition of the Byzantine majority text, rather than the Hodges/Farstad text, which the EMTV was translated from. You will notice these differences in John 7:53-8:11, as well as the entire book of Revelation.

The English Majority Text Version draws from the work of both Dr.’s Hodges and Farstad, and their text, “The Greek New Testament According to the Majority Text,” as well as from Dr. Wilbur Pickering, ThM. PhD., and the EMTV has incorporated his hard work in the field of producing evidence of just what does constitute a majority reading, and, as a result of his work, and the work of others, John 7:53-8:11, and the book of Revelation reflect these variant readings. This is one of the great things about having a Bible that is translated from the majority of the trustworthy Byzantine manuscripts that are in existence—the much greater probability of accuracy.

On the other side of the fence, most modern Bibles are translated from a few scant manuscripts (literally), and more often than not they do not even agree with each other. Not so with a Bible that is translated out of the majority! The experts in linguistics who have put these readings together, and diligently compared the manuscripts, had hundreds and hundreds of manuscripts to compare. It is my prayer that this work will bring honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and to our God and Father; because all of this, all that we do, we do to know Him better, and to better understand His word, which He has given to mankind. “Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. Do not add to His words, Lest He rebuke you, and you be found a liar. (Prove 30:5,6). Peace of Christ to you all. In His service, Paul W Esposito Stauros Ministries
