1 John 2:9 in Context — 1 John 2

7 Irmãos, não vos escrevo um mandamento novo, mas sim o mandamento antigo, que tivestes desde o princípio. Este mandamento antigo é a palavra que ouvistes desde o princípio.

8 Mas também vos escrevo um mandamento novo, que é verdadeiro nele e em vós; pois as trevas passaram, e a verdadeira luz já ilumina.

9 Aquele que diz que está na luz, e odeia seu irmão, até agora está nas trevas.

10 Aquele que ama o seu irmão está na luz, e nele não há motivo algum de tropeço.

11 Mas aquele que odeia seu irmão está nas trevas, anda nas trevas, e não sabe para onde vai, pois as trevas lhe cegaram os olhos.
