1 John 4:10 YLT

⁸  he who is not loving did not know God, because God is love.

⁹  In this was manifested the love of God in us, because His Son -- the only begotten -- hath God sent to the world, that we may live through him;

¹⁰  in this is the love, not that we loved God, but that He did love us, and did send His Son a propitiation for our sins.

¹¹  Beloved, if thus did God love us, we also ought one another to love;

¹²  God no one hath ever seen; if we may love one another, God in us doth remain, and His love is having been perfected in us;
