1 John 2:14-17

14I have writtenG1125 to you, fathersG3962, becauseG3754 you knowG1097 Him 1who has been from the beginningG746. I have writtenG1125 to you, youngG3495 menG3495, becauseG3754 you are 2strongG2478, and the 3wordG3056 of GodG2316 abidesG3306 in you, and 4you have overcomeG3528 the evilG4190 oneG4190.

15Do not loveG25 5the worldG2889 norG3366 the things in the worldG2889. 6IfG1437 anyoneG5100 lovesG25 the worldG2889, the loveG26 of the FatherG3962 is not in him. 16For allG3956 that is in the worldG2889, 7the lustG1939 of the fleshG4561 and 8the lustG1939 of the eyesG3788 and 9the boastfulG212 prideG212 of lifeG979, is not from the FatherG3962, but is from the worldG2889. 1710The worldG2889 is passingG3855 awayG3855, and also its lustsG1939; but the one who 11doesG4160 the willG2307 of GodG2316 livesG3306 foreverG165.
