3:22And whatever we shall ask, we shall receive of him: because we keep his commands, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.

23And this is his command, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ: and love one another, as he has given command to us.

24And he that keepeth his commands, remains in him, and he in him. And in this we know that he remains in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

4:1Dearly beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits if they be of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

2By this is the spirit of God known. Every spirit which confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh, is of God:

3And every spirit that dissolveth Jesus, is not of God: and this is Antichrist, of whom you have heard that he comes, and he is now already in the world.

4You are of God, little children, and have overcome him. Because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

5They are of the world: therefore of the world they speak, and the world hears them.

6We are of God. He that knows God, hears us. He that is not of God, hears us not. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

2:7The Lord has said to me: You are my son, this day have I begotten you.

8Ask of me, and I will give you the Gentiles for your gift, and the utmost parts of the earth for your possession.

10And now, O you kings, understand: receive instruction, you that judge the earth.

11Serve you the Lord with fear: and rejoice to him with trembling.

12Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you perish from the righteous way.

4:12And when Jesus had heard that John was rescued up, he retired into Galilee:

13And leaving the city Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capharnaum on the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim;

14That it might be fulfilled which was said by Isaias the prophet:

15Land of Zabulon and land of Nephthalim, the way of the sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:

16The people that sat in darkness, has seen great light: and to them that sat in the region of the shadow of death, light is sprung up.

17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

23And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom: and healing all manner of sickness and every infirmity, among the people.

24And his fame went throughout all Syria, and they presented to him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and such as were had by devils, and lunatics, and those that had palsy, and he cured them:

25And much people followed him from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
