ANOTHER VERSION.
Beloved, no fresh
commandment I am
writing unto you, but
an old commandment
which ye had from the
beginning. The commandment,
the old commandment,
is the word
which ye heard. Again,
a fresh commandment
I am writing unto you,
which thing [_as a whole_]
is true in Him and in
you: because the shadow
is drifting by, and
the light, the very _light_,
is already enlightening.
He that saith he is in
the light and hateth his
brother, in the darkness
is he hitherto. He
that loveth his brother
in the light abideth he,
and scandal in him
there is not. But he
that hateth his brother
in the darkness is he,
and in the darkness
walketh he, and he
knoweth not whither
he goeth because the
darkness hath blinded
his eyes.
