16 For this is how God loved the world: he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have life without end. (aiōnios g166)

17 For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

18 The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their works were evil.

22 After these things, Yeshua came with his talmidim into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them, and was immersing.
