1 John 3:17

17If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?

17But whoever has worldly goods and sees his brother or sister in need, and closes his 3:17 Lit inward partsheart 3:17 Lit fromagainst him, how does the love of God remain in him?

17But whoever has the world’s goods, and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?

17But whoever has the 3:17 Lit livelihood of the world.world’s goods (adequate resources), and sees his brother in need, but has no compassion for him, how does the love of God live in him?

17If anyone with earthly possessions sees his brother in need, but withholds his compassion from him, how can the love of God abide in him?

17Suppose someone sees a brother or sister in need and is able to help them. And suppose that person doesn’t take pity on these needy people. Then how can the love of God be in that person?
