16 For God so loveth the world, that he hath given his only son, for the intent that none that believe in him should perish: But should have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his son into the world, to condemn the world: But that the world, through him, might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him shall not be condemned. But he that believeth not, is condemned already, because he believeth not in the name of the only son of God.
