Yochanan I 3:18-20

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁸ Yeladim, let us not have ahavah in dvar or in lashon but in ma’aseh and in Emes. [YECHEZKEL 33:31]

¹⁹ And by this we will have da’as that we are of HaEmes, and before Him we will persuade our levavot,

²⁰ That if our levavot condemn us, Hashem is greater than our levavot, and He has da’as of all things.
