Chapter 4

1 MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world.

2 The Spirit of God is known by this: Every prophecy which declares that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is from God.

3 And every prophecy which does not declare that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not from God: but it is the prophecy of the false Christ, of whose coming you have heard, and who is even now already in the world.

4 But you are of God, my children, and have overcome them: because he who is among you is greater than he who is in the world.

5 They are of the world; therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

6 But we are of God: he who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

7 My beloved, let us love one another: for love is from God; and every one who loves is born of God, and knows God.

8 He who does not love, does not know God; for God is love.

9 By this was the love of God toward us made known, for God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that God loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

11 My beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

12 No man has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us;

13 Hereby we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

16 And we have believed and have known the love that God has for us. God is love; and he who dwells in love, abides in God.

17 Herein is his love made perfect in us, so that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear is tormenting. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

19 We love God because he first loved us.

20 If a man say, I love God, and yet hates his brother, he is a liar: for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

21 And this commandment we have from him, That he who loves God loves his brother also.

1 John

1 Beloved,27 believe4100 not3361 every3956 spirit,4151 but235 try1381 the3588 spirits4151 whether1487 they are2076 of1537 God:2316 because3754 many4183 false prophets5578 are gone out1831 into1519 the3588 world.2889

2 Hereby1722 5129 know1097 ye the3588 Spirit4151 of God:2316 Every3956 spirit4151 that3739 confesseth3670 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh4561 is2076 of1537 God: 2316

3 And2532 every3956 spirit4151 that3739 confesseth3670 not3361 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh4561 is2076 not3756 of1537 God:2316 and2532 this5124 is2076 that3588 spirit of antichrist,500 whereof3739 ye have heard191 that3754 it should come;2064 and2532 even now3568 already2235 is2076 it in1722 the3588 world.2889

4 Ye5210 are2075 of1537 God,2316 little children,5040 and2532 have overcome3528 them:846 because3754 greater3187 is2076 he3588 that is in1722 you,5213 than2228 he3588 that is in1722 the3588 world.2889

5 They846 are1526 of1537 the3588 world:2889 therefore1223 5124 speak2980 they of1537 the3588 world,2889 and2532 the3588 world2889 heareth191 them.846

6 We2249 are2070 of1537 God:2316 he that knoweth1097 God2316 heareth191 us;2257 he that3739 is2076 not3756 of1537 God2316 heareth191 not3756 us.2257 Hereby1537 5127 know1097 we the3588 spirit4151 of truth,225 and2532 the3588 spirit4151 of error.4106

7 Beloved,27 let us love25 one another:240 for3754 love26 is2076 of1537 God;2316 and2532 every one3956 that loveth25 is born1080 of1537 God,2316 and2532 knoweth1097 God.2316

8 He that loveth25 not3361 knoweth1097 not3756 God;2316 for3754 God2316 is2076 love.26

9 In1722 this5129 was manifested5319 the3588 love26 of God2316 toward1722 us,2254 because3754 that God2316 sent649 his848 only begotten3439 Son5207 into1519 the3588 world,2889 that2443 we might live2198 through1223 him.846

10 Herein1722 5129 is2076 love,26 not3756 that3754 we2249 loved25 God,2316 but235 that3754 he846 loved25 us,2248 and2532 sent649 his848 Son5207 to be the propitiation2434 for4012 our2257 sins.266

11 Beloved,27 if1487 God2316 so3779 loved25 us,2248 we2249 ought3784 also2532 to love25 one another.240

12 No man3762 hath seen2300 God2316 at any time.4455 If1437 we love25 one another,240 God2316 dwelleth3306 in1722 us,2254 and2532 his848 love26 is2076 perfected5048 in1722 us.2254

13 Hereby1722 5129 know1097 we that3754 we dwell3306 in1722 him,846 and2532 he846 in1722 us,2254 because3754 he hath given1325 us2254 of1537 his848 Spirit.4151

14 And2532 we2249 have seen2300 and2532 do testify3140 that3754 the3588 Father3962 sent649 the3588 Son5207 to be the Savior4990 of the3588 world.2889

15 Whosoever3739 302 shall confess3670 that3754 Jesus2424 is2076 the3588 Son5207 of God,2316 God2316 dwelleth3306 in1722 him,846 and2532 he846 in1722 God.2316

16 And2532 we2249 have known1097 and2532 believed4100 the3588 love26 that3739 God2316 hath2192 to1722 us.2254 God2316 is2076 love;26 and2532 he that dwelleth3306 in1722 love26 dwelleth3306 in1722 God,2316 and2532 God2316 in1722 him.846

17 Herein1722 5129 is3326 our2257 love26 made perfect,5048 that2443 we may have2192 boldness3954 in1722 the3588 day2250 of judgment:2920 because3754 as2531 he1565 is,2076 so2532 are2070 we2249 in1722 this5129 world.2889

18 There is2076 no3756 fear5401 in1722 love;26 but235 perfect5046 love26 casteth906 out1854 fear:5401 because3754 fear5401 hath2192 torment.2851 1161 He that feareth5399 is not3756 made perfect5048 in1722 love.26

19 We2249 love25 him,846 because3754 he846 first4413 loved25 us.2248

20 If1437 a man5100 say,2036 I love25 God,2316 and2532 hateth3404 his848 brother,80 he is2076 a liar:5583 for1063 he that loveth25 not3361 his848 brother80 whom3739 he hath seen,3708 how4459 can1410 he love25 God2316 whom3739 he hath not3756 seen?3708

21 And2532 this5026 commandment1785 have2192 we from575 him,846 That2443 he who loveth25 God2316 love25 his848 brother80 also.2532

1 MY beloved, do not believe every prophecy, but examine the prophecies to find out if they are of God: because many false prophets have appeared in the world.

1 Beloved,27 believe4100 not3361 every3956 spirit,4151 but235 try1381 the3588 spirits4151 whether1487 they are2076 of1537 God:2316 because3754 many4183 false prophets5578 are gone out1831 into1519 the3588 world.2889

2 The Spirit of God is known by this: Every prophecy which declares that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is from God.

2 Hereby1722 5129 know1097 ye the3588 Spirit4151 of God:2316 Every3956 spirit4151 that3739 confesseth3670 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh4561 is2076 of1537 God: 2316

3 And every prophecy which does not declare that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not from God: but it is the prophecy of the false Christ, of whose coming you have heard, and who is even now already in the world.

3 And2532 every3956 spirit4151 that3739 confesseth3670 not3361 that Jesus2424 Christ5547 is come2064 in1722 the flesh4561 is2076 not3756 of1537 God:2316 and2532 this5124 is2076 that3588 spirit of antichrist,500 whereof3739 ye have heard191 that3754 it should come;2064 and2532 even now3568 already2235 is2076 it in1722 the3588 world.2889

4 But you are of God, my children, and have overcome them: because he who is among you is greater than he who is in the world.

4 Ye5210 are2075 of1537 God,2316 little children,5040 and2532 have overcome3528 them:846 because3754 greater3187 is2076 he3588 that is in1722 you,5213 than2228 he3588 that is in1722 the3588 world.2889

5 They are of the world; therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

5 They846 are1526 of1537 the3588 world:2889 therefore1223 5124 speak2980 they of1537 the3588 world,2889 and2532 the3588 world2889 heareth191 them.846

6 But we are of God: he who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

6 We2249 are2070 of1537 God:2316 he that knoweth1097 God2316 heareth191 us;2257 he that3739 is2076 not3756 of1537 God2316 heareth191 not3756 us.2257 Hereby1537 5127 know1097 we the3588 spirit4151 of truth,225 and2532 the3588 spirit4151 of error.4106

7 My beloved, let us love one another: for love is from God; and every one who loves is born of God, and knows God.

7 Beloved,27 let us love25 one another:240 for3754 love26 is2076 of1537 God;2316 and2532 every one3956 that loveth25 is born1080 of1537 God,2316 and2532 knoweth1097 God.2316

8 He who does not love, does not know God; for God is love.

8 He that loveth25 not3361 knoweth1097 not3756 God;2316 for3754 God2316 is2076 love.26

9 By this was the love of God toward us made known, for God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

9 In1722 this5129 was manifested5319 the3588 love26 of God2316 toward1722 us,2254 because3754 that God2316 sent649 his848 only begotten3439 Son5207 into1519 the3588 world,2889 that2443 we might live2198 through1223 him.846

10 Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that God loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

10 Herein1722 5129 is2076 love,26 not3756 that3754 we2249 loved25 God,2316 but235 that3754 he846 loved25 us,2248 and2532 sent649 his848 Son5207 to be the propitiation2434 for4012 our2257 sins.266

11 My beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

11 Beloved,27 if1487 God2316 so3779 loved25 us,2248 we2249 ought3784 also2532 to love25 one another.240

12 No man has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and his love is perfected in us;

12 No man3762 hath seen2300 God2316 at any time.4455 If1437 we love25 one another,240 God2316 dwelleth3306 in1722 us,2254 and2532 his848 love26 is2076 perfected5048 in1722 us.2254

13 Hereby we know that we abide in him, and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.

13 Hereby1722 5129 know1097 we that3754 we dwell3306 in1722 him,846 and2532 he846 in1722 us,2254 because3754 he hath given1325 us2254 of1537 his848 Spirit.4151

14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

14 And2532 we2249 have seen2300 and2532 do testify3140 that3754 the3588 Father3962 sent649 the3588 Son5207 to be the Savior4990 of the3588 world.2889

15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

15 Whosoever3739 302 shall confess3670 that3754 Jesus2424 is2076 the3588 Son5207 of God,2316 God2316 dwelleth3306 in1722 him,846 and2532 he846 in1722 God.2316

16 And we have believed and have known the love that God has for us. God is love; and he who dwells in love, abides in God.

16 And2532 we2249 have known1097 and2532 believed4100 the3588 love26 that3739 God2316 hath2192 to1722 us.2254 God2316 is2076 love;26 and2532 he that dwelleth3306 in1722 love26 dwelleth3306 in1722 God,2316 and2532 God2316 in1722 him.846

17 Herein is his love made perfect in us, so that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

17 Herein1722 5129 is3326 our2257 love26 made perfect,5048 that2443 we may have2192 boldness3954 in1722 the3588 day2250 of judgment:2920 because3754 as2531 he1565 is,2076 so2532 are2070 we2249 in1722 this5129 world.2889

18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear is tormenting. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

18 There is2076 no3756 fear5401 in1722 love;26 but235 perfect5046 love26 casteth906 out1854 fear:5401 because3754 fear5401 hath2192 torment.2851 1161 He that feareth5399 is not3756 made perfect5048 in1722 love.26

19 We love God because he first loved us.

19 We2249 love25 him,846 because3754 he846 first4413 loved25 us.2248

20 If a man say, I love God, and yet hates his brother, he is a liar: for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

20 If1437 a man5100 say,2036 I love25 God,2316 and2532 hateth3404 his848 brother,80 he is2076 a liar:5583 for1063 he that loveth25 not3361 his848 brother80 whom3739 he hath seen,3708 how4459 can1410 he love25 God2316 whom3739 he hath not3756 seen?3708

21 And this commandment we have from him, That he who loves God loves his brother also.

21 And2532 this5026 commandment1785 have2192 we from575 him,846 That2443 he who loveth25 God2316 love25 his848 brother80 also.2532
