NSB(i)
11 This is the message you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another!
12 We should not be like Cain who was of the evil one, and killed his brother. Why did he murder him? It was because his works were evil, and his brother's were righteous.
13 Do not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you.
14 We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love abides in death.
15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer! You know that no murderer has everlasting life remaining in him.
16 By this we know love, because he (Jesus) gave his life for us. We ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.
17 Whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his compassion from him, how does the love of God dwell in him?
18 My Little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue; but in deed and truth.
19 By this we shall know we are of the truth, and will assure our heart before him.
