²³ Jesus answered and said to him, “^(A)If anyone loves Me, he will ^(B)follow My word; and ^(C)My Father will love him, and We ^(D)will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. ²⁴ The one who does not love Me ^(E)does not follow My words; and ^(F)the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.

⁹ And having been ^(A)perfected, He became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey Him,

²⁸ But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are ^(A)those who hear the word of God and follow it.”
