1 John 4:7-16

7BelovedG27, letG1510 usG1537 loveG26 oneG240 anotherG240: forG3754 loveG26 isG1510 ofG1537 GodG2316; andG2532 everyG3956 oneG240 thatG3754 loveth isG1510 begottenG1080 ofG1537 GodG2316, andG2532 knoweth GodG2316.

8HeG3754 thatG3754 loveth notG3756 knoweth notG3756 GodG2316; forG3754 GodG2316 isG1510 loveG26.

9Herein was theG3588 loveG26 ofG5207 GodG2316 manifestedG5319 inG1722 usG1519, thatG3754 GodG2316 hath sentG649 hisG846 onlyG3439 begottenG3439 SonG5207 intoG1519 theG3588 worldG2889, thatG3754 weG2249 mightG2198 liveG2198 throughG1223 himG846.

10Herein isG1510 loveG26, notG3756 thatG3754 weG2249 lovedG25 GodG2316, butG235 thatG3754 heG2532 lovedG25 usG1722, andG2532 sentG649 hisG846 SonG5207 toG2532 beG1510 theG3588 propitiationG2434 forG3754 ourG2316 sinsG266.

11BelovedG27, ifG1487 GodG2316 soG2532 lovedG25 us, weG2249 alsoG2532 oughtG3784 toG2532 loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240.

12NoG3762 manG3762 hath beheld GodG2316 at anyG3762 timeG4455: ifG1437 weG2249 loveG26 oneG3762 anotherG240, GodG2316 abideth inG1722 usG1722, andG2532 hisG846 loveG26 isG1510 perfectedG5048 inG1722 usG1722:

13hereby knowG1097 weG2249 thatG3754 weG2249 abideG3306 inG1722 himG846, andG2532 heG2532 inG1722 usG1325, becauseG3754 heG2532 hath givenG1325 usG1325 ofG1537 hisG846 SpiritG4151.

14AndG2532 weG2249 have beheld andG2532 bearG3140 witnessG3140 thatG3754 theG3588 FatherG3962 hath sentG649 theG3588 SonG5207 toG2532 beG2532 theG3588 Saviour ofG5207 theG3588 worldG2889.

15Whosoever shallG2532 confessG3670 thatG3754 JesusG2424 isG1510 theG3588 SonG5207 ofG5207 GodG2316, GodG2316 abideth inG1722 himG846, andG2532 heG2532 inG1722 GodG2316.

16AndG2532 weG2249 knowG1097 andG2532 have believedG4100 theG3588 loveG26 whichG3739 GodG2316 hath inG1722 usG1722. GodG2316 isG1510 loveG26; andG2532 heG2532 thatG3739 abideth inG1722 loveG26 abideth inG1722 GodG2316, andG2532 GodG2316 abideth inG1722 himG846.
