1 John 4:4-6
New Matthew Bible
4 Little children, you are of God, and have overcome them. For greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. 5 They are of the world, and therefore what they say is of the world, and the world hears them. 6 We are of God. He who knows God, hears us. He who is not of God, does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

1 John 4:4-6
New International Version
4 You, dear children,(A) are from God and have overcome them,(B) because the one who is in you(C) is greater than the one who is in the world.(D) 5 They are from the world(E) and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them. 6 We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us.(F) This is how we recognize the Spirit[a] of truth(G) and the spirit of falsehood.(H)
