New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 We must not be like Cain, who was from the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother’s righteous. 13 Do not be astonished, brothers and sisters, that the world hates you.(A) 14 We know that we have passed from death to life because we love the brothers and sisters. Whoever does not love abides in death.(B) 15 All who hate a brother or sister are murderers, and you know that murderers do not have eternal life abiding in them.(C) 16 We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us—and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers and sisters.(D) 17 How does God’s love abide in anyone who has the world’s goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help?(E)
18 Little children, let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth.(F) 19 And by this we will know that we are from the truth and will reassure our hearts before him(G) 20 whenever our hearts condemn us, for God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.

1 John 3:12-20
New International Version
12 Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one(A) and murdered his brother.(B) And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.(C) 13 Do not be surprised, my brothers and sisters,[a] if the world hates you.(D) 14 We know that we have passed from death to life,(E) because we love each other. Anyone who does not love remains in death.(F) 15 Anyone who hates a brother or sister(G) is a murderer,(H) and you know that no murderer has eternal life residing in him.(I)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.(J) And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.(K) 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them,(L) how can the love of God be in that person?(M) 18 Dear children,(N) let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.(O)
19 This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: 20 If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.
