11For kthis is the message lthat ye heard from the beginning, mthat we should love one another. 12Not as nCain, who was of othat wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? pBecause his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous. 13Marvel not, my brethren, if qthe world hate you. 14rWe know that swe have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 15tWhosoever hateth his brother is ua murderer: and ye know that vno murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 16wxHereby perceive we the love of God, because xhe laid down his life for us: and ywe ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 17But zwhoso hath this world’s agood, and seeth his brother hath need, and bshutteth up chis bowels of compassion from him, dhow dwelleth the love of God in him? 18My little children, elet us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and eein truth. 19And hereby we know that we are fof the truth, and gshall assure our hearts before him. 20For hif our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. 21Beloved, iif our heart condemn us not, then jhave we confidence ktowards God. 22And lwhatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we mkeep his commandments, and do nthose things that are pleasing in his sight. 23And this is his commandment, oThat we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and plove one another, qas he gave us commandment. 24And he that mkeepeth his commandments rdwelleth in him, and rshe in him. And thereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
