19 And by this we [a]know (A)that we are of the truth, and shall [b]assure our hearts before Him. 20 (B)For if our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. 21 Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, (C)we have confidence toward God. 22 And (D)whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments (E)and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
