¹⁸^(A)The one who believes in Him is not judged; the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of ^(B)the only Son of God. ¹⁹And this is the judgment, that ^(C)the Light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the Light; for ^(D)their deeds were evil. ²⁰^(E)For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, so that his deeds will not be exposed.
