3 And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we (A)keep his commandments. 4 Whoever says “I know him” but does not keep his commandments (B)is a liar, and (C)the truth is not in him, 5 but whoever (D)keeps his word, in him truly (E)the love of God is perfected. (F)By this we may know that we are in him: 6 whoever says he (G)abides in him (H)ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

Lexham English Bible
3 And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. 4 The one who says “I have come to know him,” and does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in this person. 5 But whoever keeps his word, truly in this person the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that we are in him. 6 The one who says that he resides in him ought also to walk[a] just as that one walked.
