1 John 4:17–18 Updated American Standard Version (UASV) 17 By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as he is, so also are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.
