²³ And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

³⁴ A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

²² Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

²⁹ Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

⁸ And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.

¹² This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

¹¹ For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

²¹ And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

⁹ But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

² And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
