1 John 4:17-19

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁷ In this is that love perfected in us: that we should have boldness on the Day of Judgment. For as He is, even so are we in this world.

¹⁸ There is no fear in love. But perfect love casts out fear. For fear has painfulness. And the one who fears has not been perfected in love.

¹⁹ We love Him because He loved us first.
