Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

Look at this incredible love the Father has poured out on us — we literally get to be called God's children! That's why the world doesn't get us sometimes, because they didn't get him either.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

You're not misunderstood, you're just God's kid in a world that doesn't know your Dad yet.
