1 John 3:16-17

New American Standard Bible 1995 NASB95

New International Version NIV

16 We know love by this, that He laid down His life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.

17 But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?

17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?
