1 John 2:7-17
7BelovedG27, no newG2537 commandmentG1785 writeG1125 I unto you, but an oldG3820 commandmentG1785 which ye had from the beginning: the oldG3820 commandmentG1785 isG1510 the wordG3056 which ye heardG191. 8AgainG3825, a newG2537 commandmentG1785 writeG1125 I unto you, which thing isG1510 trueG228 in him and in you; because the darknessG4653 isG1510 passing awayG3855, and the trueG228 lightG5457 alreadyG2235 shineth. 9He that saith he isG1510 in the lightG5457 and hateth his brotherG80, isG1510 in the darknessG4653 evenG2532 until now. 10He that loveth his brotherG80 abideth in the lightG5457, and there isG1510 no occasion of stumbling in him. 11But he that hateth his brotherG80 isG1510 in the darknessG4653, and walketh in the darknessG4653, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darknessG4653 hath blindedG5186 his eyesG3788.
12I writeG1125 unto you, my littleG5040 children, because your sinsG266 are forgivenG863 you for his name’sG3686 sakeG1223. 13I writeG1125 unto you, fathersG3962, because ye knowG1097 him who is from the beginning. I writeG1125 unto you, youngG3495 menG3495, because ye have overcomeG3528 the evilG4190 oneG3588. I have writtenG1125 unto you, little childrenG3813, because ye knowG1097 the FatherG3962. 14I have writtenG1125 unto you, fathersG3962, because ye knowG1097 him who isG1510 from the beginning. I have writtenG1125 unto you, youngG3495 menG3495, because ye areG1510 strongG2478, and the wordG3056 of GodG2316 abideth in you, and ye have overcomeG3528 the evilG4190 oneG3588. 15LoveG26 not the worldG2889, neither the things that areG1510 in the worldG2889. If any man loveG26 the worldG2889, the loveG26 of the FatherG3962 isG1510 not in him. 16For all that isG1510 in the worldG2889, the lustG1939 of the fleshG4561 and the lustG1939 of the eyesG3788 and the vainglory of lifeG979, isG1510 not of the FatherG3962, but isG1510 of the worldG2889. 17And the worldG2889 passeth awayG3855, and the lustG1939 thereof: but he that doeth the will of GodG2316 abideth for ever.
