1 John 2:5-15

5 Whosoever kepeth his (worde) in him is the love of god parfect in dede. And therby knowe we that we are in him.

6 He that sayth he bydeth in him ought to walke even as he walked.

7 Brethren I write no newe comaundement vnto you: but that olde comaundemet which ye hearde from the begynnynge.

8 The olde comaundement is the worde which ye hearde from the begynnynge. Agayne a newe comaundement I write vnto you a thynge that is true in him and also in you: for the darknes is past and the true lyght now shyneth.

9 He that sayth how that he is in the light and yet hateth his brother is in darknes even vntyll this tyme.

10 He that loveth his brother abydeth in the light and ther is none occasion of evyll in him.

11 He that hateth his brother is in darknes and walketh in darknes: and cannot tell whither he goeth because that darknes hath blynded his eyes.

12 Babes I write vnto you how that youre synnes are forgeven you for his names sake.

13 I wryte vnto you fathers how that ye have knowen him that was from the begynnynge. I wryte vnto you yonge men how that ye have overcome the wicked. I wryte vnto you lytell children how that ye have knowne the father.

14 I wryte vnto you fathers how that ye have knowe him that was fro the begynnynge. I wryte vnto you youge men how that ye are stronge: and the worde of God abydeth in you and ye have overcome that wicked.

15 Se that ye love not the worlde nether the thynges that are in the worlde. Yf eny man love the worlde the love of the father is not in him.
