Shall be as the sand of the sea,
Which cannot be measured or numbered.

In the place where it was said to them,
‘You are [b]not My (C)people,’
There it shall be said to them,
‘You are (D)sons of the living God.’

The Command to Love
3 Behold (A)what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that (B)we should be called children of [a]God! Therefore the world does not know [b]us, (C)because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, (D)now we are children of God; and (E)it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, (F)we shall be like Him, for (G)we shall see Him as He is. 3 (H)And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
