1 Beloved 27, believe 4100 not 3361 every 3956 spirit 4151, but 235 try 1381 the spirits 4151 whether 1487 they are 2076 of 1537 God 2316: because 3754 many 4183 false prophets 5578 are gone out 1831 into 1519 the world 2889.
2 Hereby 1722 5129 know ye 1097 the Spirit 4151 of God 2316: Every 3956 spirit 4151 that confesseth 3670 that Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 is come 2064 in 1722 the flesh 4561 is 2076 of 1537 God 2316:
3 And 2532 every 3956 spirit 4151 that 3739 confesseth 3670 not 3361 that Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 is come 2064 in 1722 the flesh 4561 is 2076 not 3756 of 1537 God 2316: and 2532 this 5124 is 2076 that spirit of antichrist 500, whereof 3739 ye have heard 191 that 3754 it should come 2064; and even 2532 now 3568 already 2235 is it 2076 in 1722 the world 2889.
4 Ye 5210 are 2075 of 1537 God 2316, little children 5040, and 2532 have overcome 3528 them 846: because 3754 greater 3187 is he that is 2076 in 1722 you 5213, than 2228 he that is in 1722 the world 2889.
5 They 846 are 1526 of 1537 the world 2889: therefore 1223 5124 speak they 2980 of 1537 the world 2889, and 2532 the world 2889 heareth 191 them 846.
6 We 2249 are 2070 of 1537 God 2316: he that knoweth 1097 God 2316 heareth 191 us 2257; he that 3739 is 2076 not 3756 of 1537 God 2316 heareth 191 not 3756 us 2257. Hereby 1537 5127 know we 1097 the spirit 4151 of truth 225, and 2532 the spirit 4151 of error 4106.
7 Beloved 27, let us love 25 one another 240: for 3754 love 26 is 2076 of 1537 God 2316; and 2532 every one 3956 that loveth 25 is born 1080 of 1537 God 2316, and 2532 knoweth 1097 God 2316.
8 He that loveth 25 not 3361 knoweth 1097 not 3756 God 2316; for 3754 God 2316 is 2076 love 26.
9 In 1722 this 5129 was manifested 5319 the love 26 of God 2316 toward 1722 us 2254, because 3754 that God 2316 sent 649 his 848 only begotten 3439 Son 5207 into 1519 the world 2889, that 2443 we might live 2198 through 1223 him 846.
10 Herein 1722 5129 is 2076 love 26, not 3754 that 3756 we 2249 loved 25 God 2316, but 235 that 3754 he loved 25 us 2248, and 2532 sent 649 his 848 Son 5207 to be the propitiation 2434 for 4012 our 2257 sins 266.
11 Beloved 27, if 1487 God 2316 so 3779 loved 25 us 2248, we 2249 ought 3784 also 2532 to love 25 one another 240.
12 No man 3762 hath seen 2300 God 2316 at any time 4455. If 1437 we love 26 one another 240, God 2316 dwelleth 3306 in 1722 us 2254, and 2532 his 846 love 25 is 2076 perfected 5048 in 1722 us 2254.
13 Hereby 1722 5129 know we 1097 that 3754 we dwell 3306 in 1722 him 846, and 2532 he 846 in 1722 us 2254, because 3754 he hath given 1325 us 2254 of 1537 his 848 Spirit 4151.
14 And 2532 we 2249 have seen 2300 and 2532 do testify 3140 that 3754 the Father 3962 sent 649 the Son 5207 to be the Saviour 4990 of the world 2889.
15 Whosoever 3739 302 shall confess 3670 that 3754 Jesus 2424 is 2076 the Son 5207 of God 2316, God 2316 dwelleth 3306 in 1722 him 846, and 2532 he 846 in 1722 God 2316.
16 And 2532 we 2249 have known 1097 and 2532 believed 4100 the love 26 that 3739 God 2316 hath 2192 to 1722 us 2254. God 2316 is 2076 love 26; and 2532 he that dwelleth 3306 in 1722 love 26 dwelleth 3306 in 1722 God 2316, and 2532 God 2316 in 1722 him 846.
17 Herein 1722 5129 is our 3326 2257 love 26 made perfect 5048, that 2443 we may have 2192 boldness 3954 in 1722 the day 2250 of judgment 2920: because 3754 as 2531 he 1565 is 2076, so 2532 are 2070 we 2249 in 1722 this 5129 world 2889.
18 There is 2076 no 3756 fear 5401 in 1722 love 26; but 235 perfect 5046 love 26 casteth 906 out 1854 fear 5401: because 3754 fear 5401 hath 2192 torment 2851. 1161 He that feareth 5399 is 5048 0 not 3756 made perfect 5048 in 1722 love 26.
19 We 2249 love 25 him 846, because 3754 he 846 first 4413 loved 25 us 2248.
20 If 1437 a man 5100 say 2036, 3754 I love 25 God 2316, and 2532 hateth 3404 his 848 brother 80, he is 2076 a liar 5583: for 1063 he that loveth 25 not 3361 his 848 brother 80 whom 3739 he hath seen 3708, how 4459 can 1410 he love 25 God 2316 whom 3739 he hath 3708 0 not 3756 seen 3708?
21 And 2532 this 5026 commandment 1785 have we 2192 from 575 him 846, That 2443 he who loveth 25 God 2316 love 25 his 848 brother 80 also 2532.
