Ik heb u geschreven, vaders, want gij hebt Hem gekend, Die van den beginne is. Ik heb u geschreven, jongelingen, want gij zijt sterk, en het Woord Gods blijft in u, en gij hebt den boze overwonnen.
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.
