1 Juan 4

In this is charity: not as though we had loved God, but because he hath first loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins.

En esto consiste el amor: no que nosotros hayamos amado á Dios, sino que él nos amó á nosotros, y ha enviado á su Hijo en propiciación por nuestros pecados.

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
