1 John 4:9-12
9By thisG3778 the loveG26 of GodG2316 was revealedG5319 12in us, that 3GodG2316 has sentG649 His onlyG3439 SonG5207 into the worldG2889 soG2443 thatG2443 we may liveG2198 throughG1223 Him.
10In thisG3778 is loveG26, 4not that we lovedG25 GodG2316, but that 5He lovedG25 us and sentG649 His SonG5207 to be 6the 7propitiationG2434 for our sinsG266.
118BelovedG27, ifG1487 GodG2316 soG3779 lovedG25 us, 9we alsoG2532 oughtG3784 to loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240.
1210NoG3762 oneG3762 has everG4455 seenG2300 GodG2316; ifG1437 we loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240, GodG2316 remainsG3306 in us, and His 11loveG26 is perfectedG5048 in us.
