¹⁵ And Thou, O Lord, `art' God, merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abundant in kindness and truth.

¹⁸ Who `is' a God like Thee? taking away iniquity, And passing by the transgression of the remnant of His inheritance, He hath not retained for ever His anger, Because He -- He delighteth `in' kindness.

¹¹ Henceforth, brethren, rejoice; be made perfect, be comforted, be of the same mind, be at peace, and the God of the love and peace shall be with you;

⁷ How precious `is' Thy kindness, O God, And the sons of men In the shadow of Thy wings do trust.

⁸ and God doth commend His own love to us, that, in our being still sinners, Christ did die for us;

⁷ Beloved, may we love one another, because the love is of God, and every one who is loving, of God he hath been begotten, and doth know God;

⁸ he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love.

⁹ In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son -- the only begotten -- hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him;

¹⁹ we -- we love him, because He -- He first loved us;

³ Because better `is' Thy kindness than life, My lips do praise Thee.

⁴ and God, being rich in kindness, because of His great love with which He loved us,

⁵ even being dead in the trespasses, did make us to live together with the Christ, (by grace ye are having been saved,)

⁶ and did raise `us' up together, and did seat `us' together in the heavenly `places' in Christ Jesus,

¹⁵ whoever may confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God in him doth remain, and he in God;

¹⁶ and we -- we have known and believed the love, that God hath in us; God is love, and he who is remaining in the love, in God he doth remain, and God in him.

¹⁷ In this made perfect hath been the love with us, that boldness we may have in the day of the judgment, because even as He is, we -- we also are in this world;

¹⁰ in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.

¹ Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age `is' His kindness.

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.
