1 John 5 EVERY one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten of God; and every one that loves him who begot, loves also him that has been begotten of him.

ABU⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ EVERY one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten of God; and every one that loves him who begot, loves also him that has been begotten of him. ² In this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and do his commandments. ³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome; ⁴ because all that is begotten of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. ⁵ Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God? ⁶ This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus the Christ; not in the water only, but in the water and in the blood. And the Spirit is that which bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth. ⁷ For there are three who bear witness; the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; ⁸ and the three agree in the one. ⁹ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater; for this is the witness of God, that he has borne witness concerning his Son. ¹⁰ He that believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself; he that believes not God has made him a liar; because he has not believed in the witness which God has borne concerning his Son. ¹¹ And this is the witness, that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. ¹² He that has the Son has the life; he that has not the Son of God has not the life. ¹³ These things I wrote to you, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, who believe on the name of the Son of God. ¹⁴ And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that, if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. ¹⁵ And if we know that he hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him. ¹⁶ If any one see his brother sin a sin not unto death, he shall ask, and he will give him life,—to those who sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death; for that I do not say that he shall pray. ¹⁷ All unrighteousness is sin; and there is a sin not unto death. ¹⁸ We know that every one who has been begotten of God sins not; but he that was begotten of God keeps himself; and the evil one touches him not. ¹⁹ We know that we are of God, and the whole world is lying in the evil one. ²⁰ And we know that the Son of God is come, and has given us understanding, that we may know the True one; and we are in the True One, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. ²¹ Little children, keep yourselves from the idols.
