1 John 5:5-12

5And who isG1510 he that overcometh the worldG2889, but he that believeth that JesusG2424 isG1510 the SonG5207 of GodG2316? 6This isG1510 he that cameG2064 by waterG5204 and bloodG129, evenG2532 JesusG2424 ChristG5547; not with the waterG5204 onlyG3440, but with the waterG5204 and with the bloodG129. 7And it isG1510 the Spirit that beareth witnessG3140, because the Spirit isG1510 the truth. 8For there areG1510 threeG5140 who bear witness, the SpiritG4151, and the waterG5204, and the bloodG129: and the threeG5140 agree in oneG1520. 9If we receiveG2983 the witnessG3140 of menG444, the witnessG3140 of GodG2316 isG1510 greaterG3173: for the witnessG3140 of GodG2316 isG1510 this, that he hath borne witnessG3140 concerningG4012 his SonG5207. 10He that believeth on the SonG5207 of GodG2316 hath the witnessG3140 in him: he that believeth not GodG2316 hath madeG4160 him a liarG5583; because he hath not believedG4100 in the witnessG3140 that GodG2316 hath borne concerningG4012 his SonG5207. 11And the witnessG3141 isG1510 this, that GodG2316 gaveG1325 unto us eternalG166 lifeG2222, and this lifeG2222 isG1510 in his SonG5207. 12He that hath the SonG5207 hath the lifeG2222; he that hath not the SonG5207 of GodG2316 hath not the lifeG2222.
