¹⁵ Love not ye the world, nor the things in the world; if any one doth love the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

⁵ who is he who is overcoming the world, if not he who is believing that Jesus is the Son of God?

³³ these things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace, in the world ye shall have tribulation, but take courage -- I have overcome the world.'

¹⁰ for the sorrow toward God reformation to salvation not to be repented of doth work, and the sorrow of the world doth work death,

²⁰ for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world, by the things made being understood, are plainly seen, both His eternal power and Godhead -- to their being inexcusable;

¹ See ye what love the Father hath given to us, that children of God we may be called; because of this the world doth not know us, because it did not know Him;

⁷ for nothing did we bring into the world -- `it is' manifest that we are able to carry nothing out;

⁸ but having food and raiment -- with these we shall suffice ourselves;

⁹ and those wishing to be rich, do fall into temptation and a snare, and many desires, foolish and hurtful, that sink men into ruin and destruction,

⁴ Adulterers and adulteresses! have ye not known that friendship of the world is enmity with God? whoever, then, may counsel to be a friend of the world, an enemy of God he is set.

¹⁹ we have known that of God we are, and the whole world in the evil doth lie;

⁹ He was the true Light, which doth enlighten every man, coming to the world;

¹⁰ in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:

¹¹ to his own things he came, and his own people did not receive him;

¹⁸ Let no one deceive himself; if any one doth seem to be wise among you in this age -- let him become a fool, that he may become wise,

¹¹ And I have appointed on the world evil, And on the wicked their iniquity, And have caused to cease the excellency of the proud, And the excellency of the terrible I make low.

¹ A Psalm of David. To Jehovah `is' the earth and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

² For He on the seas hath founded it, And on the floods He doth establish it.

³ Who goeth up into the hill of Jehovah? And who riseth up in His holy place?

⁴ through which to us the most great and precious promises have been given, that through these ye may become partakers of a divine nature, having escaped from the corruption in the world in desires.

²⁰ where `is' the wise? where the scribe? where a disputer of this age? did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world?

²¹ for, seeing in the wisdom of God the world through the wisdom knew not God, it did please God through the foolishness of the preaching to save those believing.

²² Since also Jews ask a sign, and Greeks seek wisdom,

¹⁴ and this good news of the reign shall be proclaimed in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations; and then shall the end arrive.

¹⁸ if the world doth hate you, ye know that it hath hated me before you;

¹⁹ if of the world ye were, the world its own would have been loving, and because of the world ye are not -- but I chose out of the world -- because of this the world hateth you.

²⁰ `Remember the word that I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; if me they did persecute, you also they will persecute; if my word they did keep, yours also they will keep;

¹³ `Ye are the salt of the land, but if the salt may lose savour, in what shall it be salted? for nothing is it good henceforth, except to be cast without, and to be trodden down by men.

¹⁴ `Ye are the light of the world, a city set upon a mount is not able to be hid;

¹⁵ nor do they light a lamp, and put it under the measure, but on the lamp-stand, and it shineth to all those in the house;

²⁸ and the base things of the world, and the things despised did God choose, and the things that are not, that the things that are He may make useless --

²⁹ that no flesh may glory before Him;

³⁰ and of Him ye -- ye are in Christ Jesus, who became to us from God wisdom, righteousness also, and sanctification, and redemption,

¹⁵ and he said to them, `Having gone to all the world, proclaim the good news to all the creation;

¹⁹ How abundant is Thy goodness, That Thou hast laid up for those fearing Thee,

³¹ now is a judgment of this world, now shall the ruler of this world be cast forth;

²⁷ but the foolish things of the world did God choose, that the wise He may put to shame; and the weak things of the world did God choose that He may put to shame the strong;

² and he -- he is a propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only, but also for the whole world,

⁷ `Wo to the world from the stumbling-blocks! for there is a necessity for the stumbling-blocks to come, but wo to that man through whom the stumbling-block doth come!

⁸ See that no one shall be carrying you away as spoil through the philosophy and vain deceit, according to the deliverance of men, according to the rudiments of the world, and not according to Christ,

¹² And we the spirit of the world did not receive, but the Spirit that `is' of God, that we may know the things conferred by God on us,

⁷ `But I tell you the truth; it is better for you that I go away, for if I may not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you, and if I go on, I will send Him unto you;

⁸ and having come, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment;

⁹ concerning sin indeed, because they do not believe in me;

¹⁰ and concerning righteousness, because unto my Father I go away, and no more do ye behold me;

¹¹ and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world hath been judged.

¹² `I have yet many things to say to you, but ye are not able to bear `them' now;

¹³ Do not wonder, my brethren, if the world doth hate you;

⁴ Ye -- of God ye are, little children, and ye have overcome them; because greater is He who `is' in you, than he who is in the world.

¹⁴ I have given to them Thy word, and the world did hate them, because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world;

¹⁶ for God did so love the world, that His Son -- the only begotten -- He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.

¹² because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places;

²⁶ for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?

¹⁹ `And this is the judgment, that the light hath come to the world, and men did love the darkness rather than the light, for their works were evil;

¹⁹ And we have known that as many things as the law saith, to those in the law it doth speak, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may come under judgment to God;

⁴ because every one who is begotten of God doth overcome the world, and this is the victory that did overcome the world -- our faith;

⁷ And Jehovah to the age abideth, He is preparing for judgment His throne.

⁸ And He judgeth the world in righteousness, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.

⁹ And Jehovah is a tower for the bruised, A tower for times of adversity.

¹⁷ and the world doth pass away, and the desire of it, and he who is doing the will of God, he doth remain -- to the age.

³ for walking in the flesh, not according to the flesh do we war,

²⁷ religion pure and undefiled with the God and Father is this, to look after orphans and widows in their tribulation -- unspotted to keep himself from the world.

² and be not conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for your proving what `is' the will of God -- the good, and acceptable, and perfect.

²⁷ `Peace I leave to you; my peace I give to you, not according as the world doth give do I give to you; let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid;

¹⁵ Love not ye the world, nor the things in the world; if any one doth love the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

¹⁶ because all that `is' in the world -- the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of the life -- is not of the Father, but of the world,

¹⁷ and the world doth pass away, and the desire of it, and he who is doing the will of God, he doth remain -- to the age.

¹⁵ I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.

¹¹ Thine `are' the heavens -- the earth also `is' Thine, The habitable world and its fulness, Thou hast founded them.

¹¹ For the saving grace of God was manifested to all men,

¹² teaching us, that denying the impiety and the worldly desires, soberly and righteously and piously we may live in the present age,

¹³ waiting for the blessed hope and manifestation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ,

¹⁰ in the world he was, and the world through him was made, and the world did not know him:

¹⁶ because all that `is' in the world -- the desire of the flesh, and the desire of the eyes, and the ostentation of the life -- is not of the Father, but of the world,

¹² Again, therefore, Jesus spake to them, saying, `I am the light of the world; he who is following me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the light of the life.'

¹⁵ I do not ask that Thou mayest take them out of the world, but that Thou mayest keep them out of the evil.

¹⁶ `Of the world they are not, as I of the world am not;

¹⁷ sanctify them in Thy truth, Thy word is truth;

¹⁸ as Thou didst send me to the world, I also did send them to the world;

¹⁹ and for them do I sanctify myself, that they also themselves may be sanctified in truth.

²⁵ `Righteous Father, also the world did not know Thee, and I knew Thee, and these have known that Thou didst send me,

²⁶ and I made known to them Thy name, and will make known, that the love with which Thou lovedst me in them may be, and I in them.'

³⁶ for what shall it profit a man, if he may gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?
