1 John 2:1-7

11My littleG5040 childrenG5040, I am 2writingG1125 theseG3778 thingsG3778 to you soG2443 that you may not sinG264. And ifG1437 anyoneG5100 sinsG264, 3we haveG2192 an 45AdvocateG3875 with the FatherG3962, JesusG2424 ChristG5547 the righteousG1342; 2and He HimselfG846 is 6the 7propitiationG2434 for our sinsG266; and not for oursG2251 onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 8for those of the wholeG3650 worldG2889.

39By thisG3778 we knowG1097 that we have come to 10knowG1097 Him, ifG1437 we 11keepG5083 His commandmentsG1785. 4The one who saysG3004, “12I have come to 13knowG1097 Him,” and does not keepG5083 His commandmentsG1785, is a 14liarG5583, and 15the truthG225 is not in him; 5but whoeverG3739G302 16keepsG5083 His wordG3056, in him the 17loveG26 of GodG2316 has trulyG230 been perfectedG5048. 18By thisG3778 we knowG1097 that we are in Him: 6the one who saysG3004 he 19abidesG3306 in Him 20oughtG3784 himselfG846 to walkG4043 in the sameG3779 mannerG3779 as He walkedG4043.

721BelovedG27, I am 22not writingG1125 a newG2537 commandmentG1785 to you, but an oldG3820 commandmentG1785 whichG3739 you have hadG2192 23from the beginningG746; the oldG3820 commandmentG1785 is the wordG3056 whichG3739 you have heardG191.
