| Those who say, “I love God,” and hate their brothers or sisters, are liars; for those who do not love a brother or sister whom they have seen, cannot love God whom they have not seen. | If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? |
| We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose. | And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. |
|

| So we have known and believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. | And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. |
| Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love. | He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. |
| Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. | Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. |
| No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us. | No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. |
| Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law. | Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. |
| Do not love the world or the things in the world. The love of the Father is not in those who love the world. | Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. |
| We love because he first loved us. | We love him, because he first loved us. |
| If you love me, you will keep my commandments. | If ye love me, keep my commandments. |
| Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. | Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. |
| There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love. | There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. |
| May mercy, peace, and love be yours in abundance. | Mercy unto you, and peace, and love, be multiplied. |
| And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love. | And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |
| Above all, maintain constant love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins. | And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. |

| I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. | A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. |
| If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. | If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. |
| Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses. | Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins. |
| May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ. | And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ. |
| For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice, but rather a spirit of power and of love and of self-discipline. | For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. |
| Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful. | Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil. |
| Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good. | Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. |
| This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. | This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. |
