1 John 3:19-24
New American Standard Bible
19 We will know by this that we are (A)of the truth, and will set our heart at ease before Him, 20 that if our heart condemns us, that God is greater than our heart, and He knows all things. 21 (B)Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have (C)confidence [a]before God; 22 and (D)whatever we ask, we receive from Him, because we (E)keep His commandments and do (F)the things that are pleasing in His sight.
23 This is His commandment, that we [b](G)believe in (H)the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as (I)He [c]commanded us. 24 The one who (J)keeps His commandments (K)remains in Him, and He in him. (L)We know by this that (M)He remains in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

New International Version
19 This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: 20 If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. 21 Dear friends,(A) if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God(B) 22 and receive from him anything we ask,(C) because we keep his commands(D) and do what pleases him.(E) 23 And this is his command: to believe(F) in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ,(G) and to love one another as he commanded us.(H) 24 The one who keeps God’s commands(I) lives in him,(J) and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.(K)
