This is my command, That ye love one another, as I loved you.
I loved you, said Jehovah. And ye said, In what didst thou love us? Was not Esau brother to Jacob? says Jehovah: and loving Jacob.
A new command give I to you, That ye love one another: as I loved you, that ye also love one another.
These things I command you, that ye love one another.
In brotherly love, being kindly affectioned to one another; in honour preceding one another.
And walk ye in love, as also Christ loved us, and gave himself for us a gift and sacrifice to God for a smell of sweet odor.
And the Lord increase you and make you to abound in love to one another, and to all, as also we to you:
And for brotherly love ye have no need to write to you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
We ought to return thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, for your faith increases exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all enlarges to one another;
Having purified your souls in the hearing of the truth by the Spirit to unfeigned brotherly love, out of pure hearts love ye one another cordially:
And finally, all unanimous, suffering together, loving the brethren, having good bowels, an affectionate disposition:
More than all having intent love among yourselves: for love shall cover a multitude of sins.
And this is his command, That we believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us command.
And this command have we from him, That he loving God love his brother also.
And now I entreat thee, mistress, not as writing a new command, but what we had from the beginning, that we should love one another.
