Et nous, nous avons connu l'amour que Dieu a pour nous, et nous y avons cru. Dieu est amour; et celui qui demeure dans l'amour demeure en Dieu, et Dieu demeure en lui.
E noi abbiam conosciuta, e creduta la carità che Iddio ha inverso noi. Iddio è carità; e chi dimora nella carità, dimora in Dio, e Iddio dimora in lui
E nós conhecemos, e cremos no amor que Deus nos tem. Deus é amor; e quem está em amor está em Deus, e Deus nele.
我們知道並且深信上帝是愛我們的。 上帝就是愛,住在愛裏面的就是住在上帝裏面;上帝也住在他裏面。
