Whoever should keep his word, truly in him has the word of God been completed: in this we know that we are in him.

And he hating his brother is in darkness, and walks about in darkness, and knows not where he goes forward, for darkness has blinded his eyes.

Every one denying the Son, neither has the Father: he acknowledging the Son, has also the Father.

If ye know that he is just, ye know that every one doing justice has been born of him.

See ye, what kind of love the Father has given us, that we should be called the children of God: for this the world knows us not, for it knew him not.

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

Every one remaining in him sins not: every one sinning has not seen him, nor known him.

Every one born of God does not sin; for his seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, for he has been born of God.

Every one hating his brother is a manslayer: and ye know that no man-slayer has eternal life remaining in him.

And whoever has the life of the world, and sees his brother having need, and should shut up his bowels from him, how remains the love of God in him?

Dearly beloved, we should love one another: for love is of God; and every one loving has been born of God, and knows God.

In this was the love of God manifested in us, that God has sent his only born Son into the world, that we might live by him.

None has ever seen God. If we love one another, God remains in us, and his love is completed in us.

In this we know that we remain in him, and he in us, for he has given us of his Spirit.

And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his. Son a Saviour of the world.

And we have known and have believed the love which God has in us. God is love; and he remaining in love remains in God, and God in him.

In this has love been completed with us, that we might have freedom of speech in the day of judgment: for as he is, so are we in this world.

Fear is not in love; but perfected love casts out fear: for fear has restraint. And he fearing has not been perfected in love.

If any say, I love God, and hate his brother, he is a liar: for he not loving his brother whom he has seen, God whom he has not seen, how can he love?

Everyone believing that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God: and every one loving him having begotten, loves him also begotten of him.

If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater: for this is the testimony of God which he has testified concerning his Son.

He believing in the Son of God has the testimony in himself: he not believing God has made him a liar; for he has not believed the testimony which God has testified of his Son.

And this is the testimony, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

He having the Son has life; and he not having the Son of God has not life.

And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, and we know him true, and we are in him true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
