| 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 charity the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called, and should be the sons of God. Therefore the world knoweth not us, because it knew not him. |
| 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. | Dearly beloved, we are now the sons of God; and it hath not yet appeared what we shall be. We know, that, when he shall appear, we shall be like to him: because we shall see him 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 in him, sanctifieth himself, as he also is holy. |
| 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. | Whosoever committeth sin commmitteth also iniquity; and sin is iniquity. |
| 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 you know that he appeared to take away our sins, and in him there 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; and whosoever sinneth, hath not seen him, nor known 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. | Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doth justice is just, even as he is just. |
| 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 commmitteth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose, the Son of God appeared, 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 born of God, commmitteth not sin: for his seed abideth in him, and he can not sin, because he is born 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 is not just, is not of God, nor 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 declaration, which you have heard from the beginning, that you 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, who was of the wicked one, and killed his brother. And wherefore did he kill him? Because his own works were wicked: and his brother's just. |
| 1st-John 3:13 | Do not be surprised, brethren, if the world hates you. | Do not wonder, brethren, if the world hate you. | Wonder not, brethren, if the world hate 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 from death to 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 you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in himself. |
| 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. | In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath 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? | He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him: how doth the charity 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, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in 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 | In this we know that we are of the truth: and in his sight shall persuade our hearts. |
| 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. | For if our heart reprehend 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, | Dearly beloved, if our heart do not reprehend us, we have confidence towards 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 shall ask, we shall receive of him: because we keep his commandments, and do those things which 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, as he hath given commandment unto us. |
| 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 in this we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. |
