5. But whoever guards His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
6. The one who says he stays in Him ought himself also to walk, even as He walked.
7. Beloved, I write no fresh command to you, but an old command which you have had from the beginning. The old command is the Word which you heard from the beginning.
8. Again I write you a fresh command, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true light now shines.
9. The one who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in the darkness until now.
10. The one who loves his brother stays in the light, and there is no stumbling-block in him.
