| And he is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world. | He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world. |
| Don’t love the world or the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him. | Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. |
|
| For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s. | For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. |
| The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever. | The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. |
| Whoever denies the Son doesn’t have the Father. He who confesses the Son has the Father also. | No one who denies the Son has the Father; whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also. |
| Therefore, as for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father. | As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father. |
| As for you, the anointing which you received from him remains in you, and you don’t need for anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, you will remain in him. | As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him. |
| Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness and not be ashamed before him at his coming. | And now, dear children, continue in him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before him at his coming. |
