1 John 4:5-6 They are of the world: therefore speak they as of the world, and the world heareth them.

ASV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ They are of the world: therefore speak they [as] of the world, and the world heareth them. ⁶ We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he who is not of God heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
