RHE

NIV

3 And by this we know that we have known him, if we keep his commandments.
3 We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands.
4 He who saith that he knoweth him and keepeth not his commandments is a liar: and the truth is not in him.
4 Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.
5 But he that keepeth his word, in him in very deed the charity of God is perfected. And by this we know that we are in him.
5 But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him:
6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked.
6 Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did.
7 Dearly beloved, I write not a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard.
7 Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning. This old command is the message you have heard.
8 Again a new commandment I write unto you: which thing is true both in him and in you, because the darkness is passed and the true light now shineth.
8 Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and in you, because the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.
9 He that saith he is in the light and hateth his brother is in darkness even until now.
9 Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness.
10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light: and there is no scandal in him.
10 Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble.
11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness and walketh in darkness and knoweth not whither he goeth: because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.
11 But anyone who hates a brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them.
