MLV(i)
21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have boldness toward God;
22 and whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we are keeping his commandments and are practicing the things which are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, in order that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and should love one another, just-as he gave commandment to us.
