John speaks of the Holy Spirit as if he were "an anointing" that the people have received from Jesus. The abstract noun "anointing" can be translated with a verbal phrase. AT: "But the Holy One has anointed you" or "But Jesus Christ, the Holy One, has given you his Spirit" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
# the Holy One
This refers to Jesus. AT: "Jesus, the Holy One" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
# the truth ... no lie is from the truth
The abstract noun "truth" can be translated as an adjective. AT: "what is true ... no lie comes from what is true" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-abstractnouns]])
