1 John 4:5-9 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

5. They are of the world: therefore of the world they speak, and the world heareth them.

6. We are of God. He that knoweth God, heareth us. He that is not of God, heareth us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

7. Dearly beloved, let us love one another, for charity is of God. And every one that loveth, is born of God, and knoweth God.

8. He that loveth not, knoweth not God: for God is charity.

9. By this hath the charity of God appeared towards us, because God hath sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we may live by him.
