1 Jn. 2 - Greek/English/Strong’s Interlinear


King James Version

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
New King James Version

For all that is in the world – the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life – is not of the Father but is of the world.
New American Standard Bible

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world.
New International Version

For everything in the world - the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does - comes not from the Father but from the world.
The Amplified Bible

For all that is in the world - the lust of the flesh [craving for sensual gratification] and the lust of the eyes [greedy longings of the mind] and the pride of life [assurance in one’s own resources or in the stability of earthly things] - these do not come from the Father but are from the world [itself].
Wuest’s Expanded Translation

Because everything which is in the world, the passionate desire of the flesh [the totally depraved nature], and the passionate desire of the eyes, and the insolent and empty assurance which trusts in the things that serve the creature life, is not from the Father as a source but is from the world as a source.
Phillips’ Modern English

For the whole world-system, based as it is on men’s desires, their greedy ambitions and the glamour of all that they think splendid, is not derived from the Father at all, but from the world itself.
Williams’ Language of the People

because everything that is in the world, the things that our lower nature and eyes are longing for, and the proud pretensions of life, do not come from the Father, but from the world;
KJV with Strong’s Numbers

For 3754 all 3956 that 3588 is in 1722 the 3588 world, 2889 the 3588 lust 1939 of the 3588 flesh, 4561 and 2532 the 3588 lust 1939 of the 3588 eyes, 3788 and 2532 the 3588 pride 212 of life, 979 is 2076 not 3756 of 1537 the 3588 Father, 3962 but 235 is 2076 of 1537 the 3588 world. 2889
