⁷ Brethren, a new command I write not to you, but an old command, that ye had from the beginning -- the old command is the word that ye heard from the beginning;

⁸ again, a new command I write to you, which thing is true in him and in you, because the darkness doth pass away, and the true light doth now shine;

⁹ he who is saying, in the light he is, and his brother is hating, in the darkness he is till now;

¹⁰ he who is loving his brother, in the light he doth remain, and a stumbling-block in him there is not;

¹¹ and he who is hating his brother, in the darkness he is, and in the darkness he doth walk, and he hath not known whither he doth go, because the darkness did blind his eyes.
