John 3:16-20

16“For GodG2316 soG3779 1lovedG25 the worldG2889, that He 2gaveG1325 His 34onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207, that whoeverG3956 5believesG4100 in Him shall not perishG622, but haveG2192 eternalG166 lifeG2222.

17For GodG2316 6did not sendG649 the SonG5207 into the worldG2889 7to judgeG2919 the worldG2889, but that the worldG2889 might be savedG4982 throughG1223 Him.

188He who believesG4100 in Him is not judgedG2919; he who does not believeG4100 has been judgedG2919 alreadyG2235, becauseG3754 he has not believedG4100 in the nameG3686 of 9the 10onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207 of GodG2316.

19ThisG3778 is the judgmentG2920, that 11the LightG5457 has comeG2064 into the worldG2889, and menG444 lovedG25 the darknessG4655 ratherG3123 thanG2228 the LightG5457, for 12their deedsG2041 were evilG4190.

2013For everyoneG3956 who doesG4238 evilG5337 hatesG3404 the LightG5457, and does not comeG2064 to the LightG5457 for fearG2443G3361 that his deedsG2041 will be exposedG1651.
