If We Are Loving One Another, We Are Abiding In The Light

⁷ Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old^[a] commandment which you had from the beginning. The old commandment is the word which you heard. ⁸ Yet-again I am writing a new^[b] commandment to you, which^[c] is true^[d] in Him and in you, because^[e] the darkness is passing-away and the true Light^[f] is already shining. ⁹ The one claiming to be in the light and hating his brother is in the darkness until now. ¹⁰ The one loving his brother is abiding in the light, and there is no cause-of-falling in him. ¹¹ But the one hating his brother is in the darkness, and is walking in the darkness, and does not know where he is going because the darkness blinded his eyes.
