¹² No man hath beheld God at any time: if we love one another, God abideth in us, and his love is perfected in us:

¹⁸ No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared `him'.

⁵ but whoso keepeth his word, in him verily hath the love of God been perfected. Hereby we know that we are in him:

²⁰ If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, cannot love God whom he hath not seen.

¹⁶ who only hath immortality, dwelling in light unapproachable; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom `be' honor and power eternal. Amen.

¹⁷ Herein is love made perfect with us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as he is, even so are we in this world.

¹⁸ There is no fear in love: but perfect love casteth out fear, because fear hath punishment; and he that feareth is not made perfect in love.

²⁴ And he that keepeth his commandments abideth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he gave us.

²⁷ By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

¹³ But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

³⁰ And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, `said he', I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

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

¹⁷ Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, `be' honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

⁸ with him will I speak mouth to mouth, even manifestly, and not in dark speeches; and the form of Jehovah shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant, against Moses?

²⁰ And he said, Thou canst not see my face; for man shall not see me and live.
