1 John 3:10-18

10In this areG1510 manifest the childrenG5043 of 1GodG2316 and the childrenG5043 of the devilG1228. Whoever does not practise righteousnessG1343 isG1510 not of 2GodG2316, and he who does not loveG25 his brotherG80.

11For this isG1510 the messageG31 which ye have heardG191 from the beginning, that we should loveG25 oneG240 another:

12not as CainG2535 wasG1510 of the wickedG4190 oneG3588, and slew his brotherG80; and on account of what slew he him? because his worksG2041 wereG1510 wickedG4190, and those of his brotherG80 righteousG1342.

13Do not wonderG2296, brethren, if the worldG2889 hateG3404 you.

14We know that we have passed from deathG2288 to lifeG2222, because we loveG25 the brethren. He who does not loveG25 [his] brotherG80 abidesG3306 in deathG2288.

15Every one that hatesG3404 his brotherG80 isG1510 a murdererG443, and ye know that no murdererG443 has eternalG166 lifeG2222 abidingG3306 in him.

16Hereby we have knownG1097 loveG26, because he has laidG5087 downG5087 his lifeG5590 for us; and we oughtG3784 for the brethren to lay downG5087 [our] livesG5590.

17But whoso may have the world's substance, and seeG2334 his brotherG80 having needG5532, and shutG2808 up his bowels from him, howG4459 abidesG3306 the loveG26 of 3GodG2316 in him?

18ChildrenG5040, let us not loveG25 with wordG3056, nor with tongueG1100, but in deedG2041 and in truthG225.
