3:1 Beholde,
what
manner
of
loue
the
Father
hath
bestowed
vpon
vs,
that
wee
should
be
called
the
sonnes
of
God:
therfore
the
world
knoweth
vs
not,
because
it
knewe
him
not.
3:2 Beloued,
now
are
we
the
sonnes
of
God,
and
it
doeth
not
yet
appeare,
what
wee
shall
be:
but
wee
know,
that
when
he
shall
appeare,
we
shall
bee
like
him:
for
we
shall
see
him
as
he
is.
3:3 And
euery
man
that
hath
this
hope
in
him,
purifieth
himselfe,
euen
as
he
is
pure.
3:4 Whosoeuer
committeth
sinne,
transgresseth
also
the
lawe:
for
sinne
is
the
transgression
of
the
law.
3:5 And
ye
know
that
hee
was
manifested
to
take
away
our
sinnes,
and
in
him
is
no
sinne.
3:6 Whosoeuer
abideth
in
him,
sinneth
not:
whosoeuer
sinneth,
hath
not
seene
him,
neither
knowen
him.
3:7 Little
children,
let
no
man
deceiue
you:
he
that
doth
righteousnes,
is
righteous,
euen
as
he
is
righteous.
3:8 He
that
committeth
sinne,
is
of
the
deuill,
for
the
deuill
sinneth
from
the
beginning:
for
this
purpose
the
Sonne
of
God
was
manifested,
that
he
might
destroy
the
works
of
the
deuill.
3:9 Whosoeuer
is
borne
of
God,
doth
not
commit
sinne:
for
his
seede
remaineth
in
him,
and
he
cannot
sinne,
because
he
is
borne
of
God.
3:10 In
this
the
children
of
God
are
manifest,
and
the
children
of
the
deuill:
whosoeuer
doeth
not
righteousnesse,
is
not
of
God,
neither
hee
that
loueth
not
his
brother.
3:11 For
this
is
the
message
that
yee
heard
from
the
beginning,
that
wee
should
loue
one
another.
3:12 Not
as
Cain,
who
was
of
that
wicked
one,
and
slewe
his
brother:
and
wherefore
slewe
hee
him
because
his
owne
workes
were
euill,
and
his
brothers
righteous.
3:13 Marueile
not,
my
brethren,
if
the
world
hate
you.
3:14 Wee
know
that
wee
haue
passed
from
death
vnto
life,
because
wee
loue
the
brethren:
he
that
loueth
not
his
brother,
abideth
in
death.
3:15 Whosoeuer
hateth
his
brother,
is
a
murtherer,
and
yee
knowe
that
no
murtherer
hath
eternall
life
abiding
in
him.
3:16 Hereby
perceiue
wee
the
loue
of
God,
because
he
layd
downe
his
life
for
vs,
and
wee
ought
to
lay
downe
our
liues
for
the
brethren.
3:17 But
who
so
hath
this
worlds
good,
and
seeth
his
brother
hath
need,
and
shutteth
vp
his
bowels
of
compassion
from
him;
how
dwelleth
the
loue
of
God
in
him
3:18 My
little
children,
let
vs
not
loue
in
word,
neither
in
tongue,
but
indeede
and
in
trueth.
3:19 And
hereby
wee
know
that
wee
are
of
the
trueth,
and
shall
assure
our
hearts
before
him.
3:20 For
if
our
heart
condemne
vs,
God
is
greater
then
our
heart,
and
knoweth
all
things.
3:21 Beloued,
if
our
heart
condemne
vs
not,
then
haue
wee
confidence
towards
God.
3:22 And
whatsoeuer
we
aske,
wee
receiue
of
him,
because
we
keepe
his
commandement,
and
doe
those
things
that
are
pleasing
in
his
sight.
3:23 And
this
is
his
commandement,
that
we
should
beleeue
on
the
Name
of
his
Sonne
Iesus
Christ,
and
loue
one
another,
as
hee
gaue
vs
commandement.
3:24 And
hee
that
keepeth
his
commandements
dwelleth
in
him,
and
hee
in
him:
and
hereby
wee
know
that
hee
abideth
in
vs,
by
the
spirit
which
hee
hath
giuen
vs.
