1 John 2:11-13

American Standard Version

¹¹ But he that hateth his brother is in the darkness, and walketh in the darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because the darkness hath blinded his eyes.

¹² I write unto you, my little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name’s sake. ¹³ I write unto you, fathers, because ye know him who is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the evil one. ^[a]I have written unto you, little children, because ye know the Father.
