| 1st-John 3:1 | See what marvellous love the Father has bestowed upon us that we should be called God's children: and that is what we are. For this reason the world does not recognize us because it has not known Him. | 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 | Dear friends, we are now God's children, but what we are to be in the future has not yet been fully revealed. We know that if Christ reappears we shall be like Him, because we shall 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 every man who has this hope fixed on Him, purifies himself so as to be as pure as He is. | 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 | Every one who is guilty of sin is also guilty of violating Law; for sin is the violation of 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 know that He appeared in order to take away sins; 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 | No one who continues in union with Him lives in sin: no one who lives in sin has seen Him or knows 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 | Dear children, let no one lead you astray. The man who acts righteously is righteous, just as He is righteous. | 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 | He who is habitually guilty of sin is a child of the Devil, because the Devil has been a sinner from the very beginning. The Son of God appeared for the purpose of undoing the work of the Devil. | 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 | No one who is a child of God is habitually guilty of sin. A God-given germ of life remains in him, and he cannot habitually sin because he is a child of God. | 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 | By this we can distinguish God's children and the Devil's children: no one who fails to act righteously is a child of God, nor he who does not love his brother man. | 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 | For this is the Message you have heard from the beginning that we are to love 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 | We are not to resemble Cain, who was a child of the Evil one and killed his own brother. And why did he kill him? Because his own actions were wicked and his brother's actions righteous. | 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 3:13 | Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you. | Do not wonder, brethren, if the world hate you. | Marvel not, brethren, if the world hateth you. |
| 1st-John 3:14 | As for us, we know that we have already passed out of death into Life because we love our brother men. He who is destitute of love continues dead. | *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 | Every one who hates his brother man is a murderer; and you know that no murderer has the Life of the Ages continuing 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 | We know what love is through Christ's having laid down His life on our behalf; and in the same way we ought to lay down our lives for our brother men. | 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 any one has this world's wealth and sees that his brother man is in need, and yet hardens his heart against him how can such a one continue to love God? | 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 | Dear children, let us not love in words only nor with the lips, but in deed and in truth. | 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 | And in this way we shall come to know that we are loyal to the truth, and shall satisfy our consciences in His presence | 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 | in whatever matters our hearts condemn us because God is greater than our hearts and knows everything. | 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 | Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have perfect confidence towards God; | 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 whatever we ask for we obtain from Him, because we obey His commands and do the things which are pleasing in His sight. | 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 command that we are to believe in His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as He has commanded us to do. | 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 | The man who obeys His commands continues in union with God, and God continues in union with him; and through His Spirit whom He has given us we can know that He continues in union with 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. |
