Berean Standard Bible
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Behold
what manner
of
love the Father has
given to us, that we
should
be
called
children of God .
And
that
is
what
we are!
The
reason
the world does
not know us is
that
it did not know Him .
See
ye
what love the Father hath
given to us, that children of God we may
be
called;
because
of
this
the world doth
not know us ,
because
it did not know Him ;
Beloved, we
are
now children of God, and what
we
will
be
has
not yet been
revealed.
We know
that
when
Christ
appears
, we will
be like Him, for
we will
see Him as He is .
beloved, now ,
children of God are
we
, and it
was
not yet manifested
what
we shall
be
, and
we have
known
that
if
he
may
be manifested,
like him we
shall
be
, because
we shall
see him as he is ;
And everyone
who has
this hope in
Him purifies
himself, just
as Christ
is pure.
and every
one
who is
having
this hope on
him ,
doth
purify
himself, even
as he
is pure.
Everyone
who practices
sin practices
lawlessness as
well.
Indeed
, sin is lawlessness .
Every
one
who is
doing
the
sin ,
the
lawlessness also
he
doth
do
, and
the
sin is the
lawlessness ,
But
you
know
that Christ
appeared
to
take away sins
, and in Him there
is
no
sin.
and
ye
have
known
that he
was
manifested
that
our
sins
he
may
take away, and sin
is
not
in him ;
No
one who remains
in Him keeps
on
sinning.
No
one who continues
to
sin
has
seen Him or
known Him.
every
one who is
remaining
in him doth
not
sin;
every
one who is
sinning,
hath
not
seen him ,
nor
known him.
Little children, let no one deceive
you :
The
one
who practices
righteousness is righteous, just
as Christ
is righteous .
Little children, let no one lead
you astray;
he
who is
doing
the
righteousness is righteous, even
as he
is righteous ,
The
one
who practices
sin
is of the devil, because the
devil
has
been
sinning
from the very
start.
This is
why
the Son of God was
revealed
, to
destroy
the works of the devil .
he
who is doing
the
sin,
of the devil he
is
, because from the beginning
the
devil
doth
sin;
for
this was
the Son of God manifested
, that
he
may
break
up
the works of the devil ;
Anyone
born
of God refuses
to
practice
sin, because God’s
seed abides
in him ;
he cannot
go
on
sinning
, because he
has
been
born
of God.
every
one
who
hath
been
begotten
of God ,
sin he
doth
not
, because his
seed in him doth
remain,
and
he is
not
able
to
sin
, because of God he
hath
been
begotten
.
By
this the children of God are
distinguished
from
the children of the devil :
Anyone
who does
not practice
righteousness is not of God, nor
is
anyone
who does
not love
his brother .
In
this manifest
are
the children of God ,
and
the children of the devil ;
every
one
who is
not doing
righteousness ,
is not of God, and
he
who is
not loving
his brother ,
This is the message you
have
heard
from the beginning :
We should
love one another .
because
this is the message that
ye
did
hear
from the beginning ,
that
we may
love one another ,
Do
not be
like
Cain ,
who
belonged
to
the evil one and murdered
his brother .
And why
did Cain
slay him? Because his own
deeds
were evil, while
those of his brother were
righteous.
not as
Cain --
of
the evil one he
was,
and he
did
slay
his brother ,
and wherefore
did he
slay him? because his works
were evil, and
those of his brother righteous.
So
do not be
surprised
, brothers
, if the world hates
you .
Do not wonder
, my
brethren
, if the world doth
hate
you ;
We know
that we have passed from
death to life, because we love our
brothers.
The one
who does
not love
remains
in death.
we --
we
have
known
that we have passed out
of
the
death to the
life, because we love the brethren;
he
who is
not loving
the
brother
doth
remain
in the
death.
Everyone
who hates
his brother is
a murderer
, and you
know
that eternal
life does
not
reside
in a
murderer.
Every
one
who is
hating
his brother --
a man-killer
he
is
, and ye
have
known
that no
man-killer
hath
life age-during
in him
remaining,
By
this we know
what
love is:
Jesus
laid
down
His
life
for us, and we ought to lay down our
lives
for
our
brothers.
in
this we have
known
the
love ,
because
he
for us his
life
did
lay
down
, and we ought for
the
brethren
the
lives
to lay down ;
If
anyone
with
earthly
possessions
sees
his brother in
need, but
withholds
his compassion
from him ,
how can
the love of God abide
in him?
and
whoever
may
have
the
goods
of
the
world,
and
may
view
his brother having
need, and
may
shut
up
his bowels
from him --
how doth
the love of God remain
in him?
Little children, let
us
love
not in word and
speech
, but in action
and truth .
My
little children, may
we
not love
in word nor
in
tongue
, but in word
and in
truth !
And by
this we will
know that we
belong
to
the truth, and will
assure our hearts in
His
presence:
and in
this we know that of
the truth we
are
, and before
Him
we
shall
assure our hearts ,
Even
if our hearts
condemn us,
God
is
greater than our hearts
, and He knows
all things.
because
if our heart
may
condemn --
because
greater is
God
than our heart
, and He doth
know
all things.
Beloved, if our hearts
do
not condemn us, we have confidence
before
God,
Beloved, if our heart
may
not condemn us, we have boldness
toward
God,
and we will
receive from Him whatever
we
ask
, because we keep His
commandments
and do
what
is
pleasing in
His
sight.
and whatever
we may
ask,
we
receive from Him, because His
commands
we keep ,
and the
things
pleasing before
Him
we
do,
And this is His commandment:
that we should
believe in the name of His Son ,
Jesus Christ, and we
should
love one another just
as He commanded
us .
and this is His command,
that we may
believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and may
love one another ,
even
as He did
give
command
to
us ,
Whoever
keeps
His commandments
remains
in God
, and God
in him .
And by
this we know that He remains
in us :
by
the Spirit He has
given
us.
and
he
who
is
keeping
His commands,
in Him
he
doth
remain
, and He
in him ;
and in
this we know that He doth
remain
in us ,
from
the Spirit that
He gave
us.
