New Testament

1 John 4:5-17 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

5. They are of the world, therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.

6. We are of Elohim – the one knowing Elohim hears us. He who is not of Elohim does not hear us. By this we know the Spirit of the Truth and the spirit of the delusion.

7. Beloved ones, let us love one another, because love is of Elohim, and everyone who loves has been born of Elohim, and knows Elohim.

8. The one who does not love does not know Elohim, for Elohim is love.

9. By this the love of Elohim was manifested in us, that Elohim has sent His only brought-forth Son into the world, in order that we might live through Him.

10. In this is love, not that we loved Elohim, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be an atoning offering for our sins.

11. Beloved ones, if Elohim so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

12. No one has seen Elohim at any time. If we love one another, Elohim does stay in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

13. By this we know that we stay in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

14. And we have seen and bear witness that the Father has sent the Son, Saviour of the world.

15. Whoever confesses that יהושע is the Son of Elohim, Elohim stays in him, and he in Elohim.

16. And we have known and believed the love that Elohim has for us. Elohim is love, and he who stays in love stays in Elohim, and Elohim in him.

17. By this love has been perfected with us, in order that we might have boldness in the day of judgment, because as He is so are we in this world.
