1 John 3:12-15
12not as 1CainG2535, who was of 2the evilG4190 oneG4190 and slewG4969 his brotherG80. And for whatG5101 reasonG5484 did he slayG4969 him? BecauseG3754 3his deedsG2041 were evilG4190, and his brother’sG80 were righteousG1342.
13Do not be surprisedG2296, brethrenG80, ifG1487 4the worldG2889 hatesG3404 you. 14We knowG3609 that we have 5passedG3327 out of deathG2288 into lifeG2222, 6becauseG3754 we loveG25 the brethrenG80. He who does not loveG25 abidesG3306 in deathG2288. 15EveryoneG3956 who 7hatesG3404 his brotherG80 is a murdererG443; and you knowG3609 that 8noG3956G3756 murdererG443 hasG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222 abidingG3306 in him.
