1 John 4:2-21

4:2

Hereby
<1722> <3739> <5129>

know ye
<1097> (5719) (5720)

the Spirit
<4151>

of God
<2316>_:

Every
<3956>

spirit
<4151>

that confesseth
<3670> (5719)

that Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>

is come
<2064> (5756)

in
<1722>

the flesh
<4561>

is
<2076> (5748)

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_:

4:3

And
<2532>

every
<3956>

spirit
<4151>

that
<3739>

confesseth
<3670> (5719)

not
<3361>

that Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>

is come
<2064> (5756)

in
<1722>

the flesh
<4561>

is
<2076> (5748)

not
<3756>

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_:

and
<2532>

this
<5124>

is
<2076> (5748)

that [spirit] of antichrist
<500>_,

whereof
<3739>

ye have heard
<191> (5754)

that
<3754>

it should come
<2064> (5736)_;

and even
<2532>

now
<3568>

already
<2235>

is it
<2076> (5748)

in
<1722>

the world
<2889>_.

4:4

Ye
<5210>

are
<2075> (5748)

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_,

little children
<5040>_,

and
<2532>

have overcome
<3528> (5758)

them
<846>_:

because
<3754>

greater
<3187>

is he that is
<2076> (5748)

in
<1722>

you
<5213>_,

than
<2228>

he that is in
<1722>

the world
<2889>_.

4:5

They
<846>

are
<1526> (5748)

of
<1537>

the world
<2889>_:

therefore
<1223> <5124>

speak they
<2980> (5719)

of
<1537>

the world
<2889>_,

and
<2532>

the world
<2889>

heareth
<191> (5719)

them
<846>_.

4:6

We
<2249>

are
<2070> (5748)

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_:

he that knoweth
<1097> (5723)

God
<2316>

heareth
<191> (5719)

us
<2257>_;

he that
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

not
<3756>

of
<1537>

God
<2316>

heareth
<191> (5719)

not
<3756>

us
<2257>_.

Hereby
<1537> <5127>

know we
<1097> (5719)

the spirit
<4151>

of truth
<225>_,

and
<2532>

the spirit
<4151>

of error
<4106>_.

4:7

Beloved
<27>_,

let us love
<25> (5725)

one another
<240>_:

for
<3754>

love
<26>

is
<2076> (5748)

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_;

and
<2532>

every one
<3956>

that loveth
<25> (5723)

is born
<1080> (5769)

of
<1537>

God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

knoweth
<1097> (5719)

God
<2316>_.

{is born: Gr. has been born}

4:8

He that loveth
<25> (5723)

not
<3361>

knoweth
<1097> (5627)

not
<3756>

God
<2316>_;

for
<3754>

God
<2316>

is
<2076> (5748)

love
<26>_.

4:9

In
<1722>

this
<5129>

was manifested
<5319> (5681)

the love
<26>

of God
<2316>

toward
<1722>

us
<2254>_,

because
<3754>

that God
<2316>

sent
<649> (5758)

his
<846>

only begotten
<3439>

Son
<5207>

into
<1519>

the world
<2889>_,

that
<2443>

we might live
<2198> (5661)

through
<1223>

him
<846>_.

4:10

Herein
<1722> <5129>

is
<2076> (5748)

love
<26>_,

not
<3754>

that
<3756>

we
<2249>

loved
<25> (5656)

God
<2316>_,

but
<235>

that
<3754>

he
<846>

loved
<25> (5656)

us
<2248>_,

and
<2532>

sent
<649> (5656)

his
<846>

Son
<5207>

[to be] the propitiation
<2434>

for
<4012>

our
<2257>

sins
<266>_.

4:11

Beloved
<27>_,

if
<1487>

God
<2316>

so
<3779>

loved
<25> (5656)

us
<2248>_,

we
<2249>

ought
<3784> (5719)

also
<2532>

to love
<25> (5721)

one another
<240>_.

4:12

No man
<3762>

hath seen
<2300> (5766)

God
<2316>

at any time
<4455>_.

If
<1437>

we love
<25> (5725)

one another
<240>_,

God
<2316>

dwelleth
<3306> (5719)

in
<1722>

us
<2254>_,

and
<2532>

his
<846>

love
<26>

is
<2076> (5748)

perfected
<5048> (5772)

in
<1722>

us
<2254>_.

4:13

Hereby
<1722> <5129>

know we
<1097> (5719)

that
<3754>

we dwell
<3306> (5719)

in
<1722>

him
<846>_,

and
<2532>

he
<846>

in
<1722>

us
<2254>_,

because
<3754>

he hath given
<1325> (5758)

us
<2254>

of
<1537>

his
<846>

Spirit
<4151>_.

4:14

And
<2532>

we
<2249>

have seen
<2300> (5766)

and
<2532>

do testify
<3140> (5719)

that
<3754>

the Father
<3962>

sent
<649> (5758)

the Son
<5207>

[to be] the Saviour
<4990>

of the world
<2889>_.

4:15

Whosoever
<3739> <302>

shall confess
<3670> (5661)

that
<3754>

Jesus
<2424>

is
<2076> (5748)

the Son
<5207>

of God
<2316>_,

God
<2316>

dwelleth
<3306> (5719)

in
<1722>

him
<846>_,

and
<2532>

he
<846>

in
<1722>

God
<2316>_.

4:16

And
<2532>

we
<2249>

have known
<1097> (5758)

and
<2532>

believed
<4100> (5758)

the love
<26>

that
<3739>

God
<2316>

hath
<2192> (5719)

to
<1722>

us
<2254>_.

God
<2316>

is
<2076> (5748)

love
<26>_;

and
<2532>

he that dwelleth
<3306> (5723)

in
<1722>

love
<26>

dwelleth
<3306> (5719)

in
<1722>

God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

God
<2316>

in
<1722>

him
<846>_.

4:17

Herein
<1722> <5129>

is our
<3326> <2257>

love
<26>

made perfect
<5048> (5769)_,

that
<2443>

we may have
<2192> (5725)

boldness
<3954>

in
<1722>

the day
<2250>

of judgment
<2920>_:

because
<3754>

as
<2531>

he
<1565>

is
<2076> (5748)_,

so
<2532>

are
<2070> (5748)

we
<2249>

in
<1722>

this
<5129>

world
<2889>_.

{our love: Gr. love with us}

4:18

There is
<2076> (5748)

no
<3756>

fear
<5401>

in
<1722>

love
<26>_;

but
<235>

perfect
<5046>

love
<26>

casteth
<906> (5719)

out
<1854>

fear
<5401>_:

because
<3754>

fear
<5401>

hath
<2192> (5719)

torment
<2851>_.

<1161>

He that feareth
<5399> (5740)

is
<5048> (0)

not
<3756>

made perfect
<5048> (5769)

in
<1722>

love
<26>_.

4:19

We
<2249>

love
<25> (5719) (5725)

him
<846>_,

because
<3754>

he
<846>

first
<4413>

loved
<25> (5656)

us
<2248>_.

4:20

If
<1437>

a man
<5100>

say
<2036> (5632)_,

<3754>

I love
<25> (5719)

God
<2316>_,

and
<2532>

hateth
<3404> (5725)

his
<846>

brother
<80>_,

he is
<2076> (5748)

a liar
<5583>_:

for
<1063>

he that loveth
<25> (5723)

not
<3361>

his
<846>

brother
<80>

whom
<3739>

he hath seen
<3708> (5758)_,

how
<4459>

can
<1410> (5736)

he love
<25> (5721)

God
<2316>

whom
<3739>

he hath
<3708> (0)

not
<3756>

seen
<3708> (5758)_?

4:21

And
<2532>

this
<5026>

commandment
<1785>

have we
<2192> (5719)

from
<575>

him
<846>_,

That
<2443>

he who loveth
<25> (5723)

God
<2316>

love
<25> (5725)

his
<846>

brother
<80>

also
<2532>_.
