New American Standard Bible 1995
1 John 5:8-11
81the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are 2in agreement.
93If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for the testimony of God is this, that 4He has testified concerning His Son.
10The one who believes in the Son of God 5has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has 6made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son.
11And the testimony is this, that God has given us 7eternal life, and 8this life is in His Son.
