(Hebrew unavailable)
13So do not be surprised, brothers, if the world hates you.
(Hebrew unavailable)
14We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love our brothers. The one who does not love remains in death.

15Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that eternal life does not reside in a murderer.
(Hebrew unavailable)
16By this we know what love is: Jesus laid down His life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers.
(Hebrew unavailable)
17If anyone with earthly possessions sees his brother in need, but withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God abide in him?
(Hebrew unavailable)
18Little children, let us love not in word and speech, but in action and truth.
(Hebrew unavailable)
19And by this we will know that we belong to the truth, and will assure our hearts in His presence:
(Hebrew unavailable)
20Even if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our hearts, and He knows all things.
(Hebrew unavailable)
21Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God,
(Hebrew unavailable)
22and we will receive from Him whatever we ask, because we keep His commandments and do what is pleasing in His sight.
(Hebrew unavailable)
23And this is His commandment: that we should believe in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, and we should love one another just as He commanded us.
