Rotherham(i)
11 Because, this, is the message which ye have heard from the beginning––that we should be loving one another,––
12 Not just as, Cain, was, of the wicked one, and slew his brother! And, for what cause, slew he him? Because, his works, were, wicked, whereas, those of his brother, were, righteous.
13 Be not marveling, brethren, if, the world, is hating you:
14 We, know, that we have passed over out of death into life, because we love the brethren: he that loveth not, abideth in death. 15 Whosoever is hating his brother, is, a murderer; and ye know that, no murderer, hath life age–during, within him abiding. 16 Hereby, have we come to understand love: in that, He, for us, his life laid down; and, we, ought, for the brethren, our lives to lay down. 17 But, whoso hath this world’s goods, and beholdeth his brother having, need, and shutteth up his tender affections from him, how, is, the love of God, abiding in him? 18 Dear children! Let us not be loving in word, nor yet with the tongue, but in deed and truth.
