1 John 3:13-24

Common English Bible CEB

13 Don't be surprised, brothers and sisters, if the world hates you.

14 We know that we have transferred from death to life, because we love the brothers and sisters. The person who does not love remains in death.

15 Everyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.

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

17 But if a person has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need and that person doesn't care—how can the love of God remain in him?

18 Little children, let's not love with words or speech but with action and truth.

19 This is how we will know that we belong to the truth and reassure our hearts in God's presence.

20 Even if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts and knows all things.

21 Dear friends, if our hearts don't condemn us, we have confidence in relationship to God.

22 We receive whatever we ask from him because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.

23 This is his commandment, that we believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love each other as he commanded us.

24 The person who keeps his commandments remains in God and God remains in him; and this is how we know that he remains in us, because of the Spirit that he has given to us.

New International Version NIV

13 Do not be surprised, my brothers and sisters, if the world hates you.

14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in death.

15 Anyone who hates a brother or sister is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.

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 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?

18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

19 This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence:

20 If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.

21 Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God

22 and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.

23 And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

24 The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
