1 John 3:11-15

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

¹¹ Because this is the message which you heard from the beginning: that we should be loving one another. ¹² Not as Cain. He was of the evil one, and slew his brother. And for what reason did he slay him? Because his works were evil, but the ones of his brother were righteous. ¹³ And do not be marveling, brothers, if the world hates you! ¹⁴ We know that we have passed from death into life because we are loving the brothers. The one not loving is abiding^[a] in death. ¹⁵ Everyone hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that every murderer does not have eternal life abiding in him.
