3:18 | Amadodana ami amancane, let us not love in words only, but in works and in truth. |
3:19 | Ngale ndlela, we will know that we are of the truth, and we will commend our hearts in his sight. |
3:20 | For even if our heart reproaches us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows all things. |

3:22 | and whatever we shall request of him, we shall receive from him. For we keep his commandments, and we do the things that are pleasing in his sight. |
3:23 | And this is his commandment: that we should believe in the name of his Son, UJesu Kristu, and love one another, just as he has commanded us. |
3:24 | And those who keep his commandments abide in him, and he in them. And we know that he abides in us by this: ngoMoya, whom he has given to us. |

15:7 | Uma nihlala kimi, lamazwi ami ahlala kini, khona-ke ningacela noma yini eniyithandayo, futhi kuyakwenziwa kini. |
15:8 | Kulokhu, uBaba uyakhazinyuliswa: ukuze lithele izithelo ezinengi kakhulu njalo libe ngabafundi bami. |
