We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us. That is how we know the Spirit of truth and the spirit of deception.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
We are of God. He who knows God listens to us. He who is not of God doesn’t listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
World English Bible (WEB)
We{G2249} are{G2070}{(G5748)} of{G1537} God{G2316}: he that knoweth{G1097}{(G5723)} God{G2316} heareth{G191}{(G5719)} us{G2257}; he that{G3739} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} God{G2316} heareth{G191}{(G5719)} not{G3756} us{G2257}. Hereby{G1537}{G5127} know we{G1097}{(G5719)} the spirit{G4151} of truth{G225}, and{G2532} the spirit{G4151} of error{G4106}.
Strong's King James
We are of the Elohim. The one who continues to truly know the Elohim listens to us; the one who is not of the Elohim does not listen to us. From this, we know the spirit (ruach) of truth and the spirit (ruach) of error.
The F.O.G
We belong to Yahweh. Whoever continues to intimately know Yahweh listens to us; whoever is not of Yahweh does not listen to us. This is how we can distinguish the spirit of truth from the spirit of error.
The F.O.G Message
we—of God we are; he who is knowing God doth hear us; he who is not of God, doth not hear us; from this we know the spirit of the truth, and the spirit of the error.
