1 John 2:2-5
New American Standard Bible

Chapter 2

2and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
3By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4The one who says, 'I have come to know Him,' and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him; 5but whoever follows His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him:
King James Version

Chapter 2

2And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. 3And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
Christian Standard Bible

Chapter 2

2He himself is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours, but also for those of the whole world.
3This is how we know that we know him: if we keep his commands. 4The one who says, "I have come to know him," and yet doesn’t keep his commands, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But whoever keeps his word, truly in him the love of God is made complete. This is how we know we are in him:
New Living Translation

Chapter 2

2He himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins — and not only our sins but the sins of all the world.
3And we can be sure that we know him if we obey his commandments. 4If someone claims, 'I know God,' but doesn’t obey God’s commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth. 5But those who obey God’s word truly show how completely they love him. That is how we know we are living in him.
English Standard Version

Chapter 2

2He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world. 3And by this we know that we have come to know him, if we keep his commandments. 4Whoever says "I know him" but does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him, 5but whoever keeps his word, in him truly the love of God is perfected. By this we may know that we are in him:
New International Version

Chapter 2

2He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.
3We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. 4Whoever says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. 5But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him:
New King James Version

Chapter 2

2And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
3Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. 4He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him.
