En esto se ha perfeccionado el amor entre nosotros, para que tengamos confianza en el día del juicio, porque como él es, así somos también nosotros en este mundo.
Tel il est, tels nous sommes aussi dans ce monde: c'est en cela que l'amour est parfait en nous, afin que nous ayons de l'assurance au jour du jugement.
In questo è compiuta la carità inverso noi acciocchè abbiamo confidanza nel giorno del giudicio: che quale egli è, tali siamo ancor noi in questo mondo.
Nisto é perfeito o amor para conosco, para que no dia do juízo tenhamos confiança; porque, qual ele é, somos nós também neste mundo.
由此,愛在我們裏面得以完滿:我們可以在審判的日子坦然無懼,因為基督如何,我們在這世上也如何。
