John 3:19-21 And this is the basis for judgment: The light has come into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light because their actions were evil.

ISV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ And this is the basis for judgment: The light has come into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light because their actions were evil. ²⁰ Everyone who practices wickedness hates the light and does not come to the light, so that his actions may not be exposed. ²¹ But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may become evident that his actions have God’s approval.”
