| 1st-John 3:1 | See what great love the Father has given us in naming us the children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not see who we are, because it did not see who he was. | See what love the Father has given to us, that we should be called [the] children of God. For this reason the world knows us not, because it knew him not. | Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God; and [such] we are. For this cause the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. |
| 1st-John 3:2 | My loved ones, now we are children of God, and at present it is not clear what we are to be. We are certain that at his revelation we will be like him; for we will see him as he is. | Beloved, now are we children of God, and what we shall be has not yet been manifested; we know that if it is manifested we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. | Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is. |
| 1st-John 3:3 | And everyone who has this hope in him makes himself holy, even as he is holy. | And every one that has this hope in him purifies himself, even as *he* is pure. | And every one that hath this hope [set] on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. |
| 1st-John 3:4 | Everyone who is a sinner goes against the law, for sin is going against the law. | Every one that practises sin practises also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. | Every one that doeth sin doeth also lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. |
| 1st-John 3:5 | And you have knowledge that he came to take away sin: and in him there is no sin. | And ye know that *he* has been manifested that he might take away our sins; and in him sin is not. | And ye know that he was manifested to take away sins; and in him is no sin. |
| 1st-John 3:6 | Anyone who is in him does no sin; anyone who is a sinner has not seen him and has no knowledge of him. | Whoever abides in him, does not sin: whoever sins, has not seen him or known him. | Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither knoweth him. |
| 1st-John 3:7 | My little children, let no man take you out of the true way: he who does righteousness is upright, even as he is upright; | Children, let no man lead you astray; he that practises righteousness is righteous, even as *he* is righteous. | [My] little children, let no man lead you astray: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous: |
| 1st-John 3:8 | The sinner is a child of the Evil One; for the Evil One has been a sinner from the first. And the Son of God was seen on earth so that he might put an end to the works of the Evil One. | He that practises sin is of the devil; for from [the] beginning the devil sins. To this end the Son of God has been manifested, that he might undo the works of the devil. | he that doeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. |
| 1st-John 3:9 | Anyone who is a child of God does no sin, because he still has God's seed in him; he is not able to be a sinner, because God is his Father. | Whoever has been begotten of God does not practise sin, because his seed abides in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been begotten of God. | Whosoever is begotten of God doeth no sin, because his seed abideth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is begotten of God. |
| 1st-John 3:10 | In this way it is clear who are the children of God and who are the children of the Evil One; anyone who does not do righteousness or who has no love for his brother, is not a child of God. | In this are manifest the children of God and the children of the devil. Whoever does not practise righteousness is not of God, and he who does not love his brother. | In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loveth not his brother. |
| 1st-John 3:11 | Because this is the word which was given to you from the first, that we are to have love for one another; | For this is the message which ye have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another: | For this is the message which ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another: |
| 1st-John 3:12 | Not being of the Evil One like Cain, who put his brother to death. And why did he put him to death? Because his works were evil and his brother's works were good. | not as Cain was of the wicked one, and slew his brother; and on account of what slew he him? because his works were wicked, and those of his brother righteous. | not as Cain was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his works were evil, and his brother's righteous. |

| 1st-John 3:14 | We are conscious that we have come out of death into life because of our love for the brothers. He who has no love is still in death. | *We* know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love [his] brother abides in death. | We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not abideth in death. |
| 1st-John 3:15 | Anyone who has hate for his brother is a taker of life, and you may be certain that no taker of life has eternal life in him. | Every one that hates his brother is a murderer, and ye know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. | Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. |
| 1st-John 3:16 | In this we see what love is, because he gave his life for us; and it is right for us to give our lives for the brothers. | Hereby we have known love, because *he* has laid down his life for us; and *we* ought for the brethren to lay down [our] lives. | Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. |
| 1st-John 3:17 | But if a man has this world's goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love of God to be in him? | But whoso may have the world's substance, and see his brother having need, and shut up his bowels from him, how abides the love of God in him? | But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him? |
| 1st-John 3:18 | My little children, do not let our love be in word and in tongue, but let it be in act and in good faith. | Children, let us not love with word, nor with tongue, but in deed and in truth. | [My] Little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth. |
| 1st-John 3:19 | In this way we may be certain that we are true, and may give our heart comfort before him, | And hereby we shall know that we are of the truth, and shall persuade our hearts before him | Hereby shall we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our heart before him: |
| 1st-John 3:20 | When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things. | that if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things. | because if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. |
| 1st-John 3:21 | My loved ones, if our heart does not say that we have done wrong, we have no fear before him; | Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness towards God, | Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; |
| 1st-John 3:22 | And he gives us all our requests, because we keep his laws and do the things which are pleasing in his eyes. | and whatsoever we ask we receive from him, because we keep his commandments, and practise the things which are pleasing in his sight. | and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. |
| 1st-John 3:23 | And this is his law, that we have faith in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love for one another, even as he said to us. | And this is his commandment, that we believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and that we love one another, even as he has given us commandment. | And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, even as he gave us commandment. |
| 1st-John 3:24 | He who keeps his laws is in God and God is in him. And the Spirit which he gave us is our witness that he is in us. | And he that keeps his commandments abides in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given to us. | And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us. |
