⁷ I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

¹⁸ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

⁹ In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
