^12 (A)“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

² And ^(A)walk in love, ^(B)as Christ loved us and ^(C)gave himself up for us, a ^(D)fragrant ^(E)offering and sacrifice to God.

¹⁰ In this is love, ^(A)not that we have loved God ^(B)but that he loved us and sent his Son to be ^(C)the propitiation for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
