9 And the love of God was made clear to us when he sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.

10 And this is love, not that we had love for God, but that he had love for us, and sent his Son to be an offering for our sins.

9 Ved dette er Guds kjærlighet åpenbaret iblandt oss at Gud har sendt sin Sønn, den enbårne, til verden, forat vi skal leve ved ham.

10 I dette er kjærligheten, ikke at vi har elsket Gud, men at han har elsket oss og sendt sin Sønn til soning for våre synder.
