16 Hereby we have known love, because *he* has laid down his life for us; and *we* ought for the brethren to lay down {our} lives.
17 But whoso may have the world's substance, and see his brother having need, and shut up his bowels from him, how abides the love of God in him?
18 Children, let us not love with word, nor with tongue, but in deed and in truth.
